I'm more the quiet type myself, (hey I'm trying to concentrate on what I'm doing ya know?) but the wife, well that's a different story....especially when she's on top. She can get pretty loud. She's always been one to holler but since the kids have gotten older she's had to tone it down some...especially if they're right in the next room & they're still not asleep...hehe. Still says things in the heat of passion like " harder...harder...harder" & "God, you feel sooooo good" which after all these years still makes me hard as a rock.
