Well, my SO and I find that the regular room lights are usually a bit harsh, so we often use candles (Come to think of it I can't remember the last time we made love when it was dark out, and we didn't use candle light.) Candles have a number of points in their favor - -The light they cast is not overly harsh - Candle light and candles already carry many romantic connotations. - Scented candles can add a wonderful new element to sex, - By changing the number of them you use, you can vary the lighting to suit you. - And, of course, S&M uses, if your tastes run that way (Fun with wax?) Just don't burn down your home - blow the darn things out before you go to sleep. Have fun! Live long, and prosper Schlock of Vulcan "There is an energy leak somewhere..."
