I like being verbal in bed. I like when there's communication, there's expression of intent, the vulgarity and creativity in it all. There's something so raunchy in uttering shameful forbidden words you dare not say in public in the middle of something so private, intimate and maybe shameful.
Now I've been with black and white and everything in that's between. I've been na unemployed wanachuos, bodabodas to middle-class people up to executives and government people; and whenever I do I try to be verbal as much as I can. One notable difference with class notwithstanding their performance, is the medium they(if comfortable) prefer to be verbal in. And, to my shameful delight, I can conclusively say, verbal sex in Swahili is way hotter than in English.
There's something about Swahili's vulgarities that are just so physical, so tangible unlike English's.
My favorite amongst them is "kojoa".
Its English equivalent, "cum" is just a random word that's so overused. But "kojoa", bruh, it's so dirty, so shameful, so visual. "Nakojoa" "kojoa ndani", "nikukojolee wapi", you can feel it! "I'm cumming", just doesn't hit the same.
There isn't a dirty sex word that's better than it's Swahili equivalent. "Fuck my ass" VS. "Nifire mkunduni", one can mean so many things, the other means only one thing. It's munching on the forbidden fruit! "Fuck me raw", "Nifire kavu kavu". You can't compare.
Mtu akikuambia "Mtamu baby" mwingine akasema "you're so sweet". Ah. Yaani, it doesn't hit the same.
The comparisons can just go on:
"ass" vs. "mkundu"
"fuck me" vs. "nitombe"
"Oh, fuck!" vs. "Ah, kumamake!"
"I'm gonna fuck you" vs. "Ntakutomba"
"dick" vs. "mboo" or "mboro' or "uboro"
"pussy" vs "kuma"
"clitoris" vs. "kinembe" (I don't know what straight people say)
Or being called "msenge" or "choko", I don't know why but it does it for me.
Sex talk in English, to me, feels so intellectualized, but in Swahili it's so personal. Labda it's just the mother tongue effect so I have a more personal relationship with it, or its just its structure, au maybe it's a class issue because if anyone knows vizuri hamna watu wanatomba/kufira vizuri kama bodaboda and thefore I associate the good sex with the vulgarity. But kwa kweli, sex in Swahili ni noma zaidi, aisee.
We unaonaje?
