Tbh, I don't think the post is bad at all. If you have special high-bandwidth use cases that require massive speed you know that already and then the article isn't for you.
If you say you "didn't have fiber" I'm guessing you were on 50MBit VDSL? Then, of course, switching to gigabit makes sense.
In the blog post the author explicitly doesn't say "Go get VDSL", but they compare Gigabit with 500MBit. That's not nearly that much of a difference, you'll still be able to play a new game minutes after you bought it, but just twice as many minutes. If that at all, because if you have wifi in your home, it will likely limit your bandwidth to less than 500MBit in real use anyway.
The main point of the post is to show whether a regular user really benefits from Gigabit, and no, they don't. Their netflix stream will not improve when going from a few hundred MBit to a Gigabit. Neither will most of their experience.
If you are lucky enough to live in a place where Gigabit costs nothing, sure, might as well. The only provider who serves Gigabit to my home wants €65 per month for that, €780 per year. That's a lot of money for something that maybe saves me a few minutes once or twice a month.
Sex is a skill, and like any skill it takes research and practice.
But I'm sure there aren't many men out there who wouldn't want their partner to practice on them, so go for it!
In the beginning I used to always plan beforehand to have a couple cool things I could do, maybe something to surprise her with or something. And backup plans in case the original idea didn't work out as expected.
To put it differently: Work is a trade. The worker sells time and skill, the employer buys that with money. That is the very basic underlying concept of work.
If the employer doesn't want to do that deal, why should the worker?
Think of everything you like being done to you apart from PIV. Chances are that men like that too when you do it to them.
A woman being actually active, showing what she wants, using her hands both to touch her partner, but also to show what she likes (e.g. putting her hand onto his hand while he's doing something she likes and pushing/holding the hand there) is incredibly sexy.
Being touched/stimulated on everything that counts as erogenous zone is nice.
Think of anything that counts as foreplay with women. Chances are men like that too.
To put it differently: Think of having sex, and the only thing your partner does is touch your clit and PIV, no other body contact. There's a lot missing, isn't there?
Communication is really sexy too. If you want something, say so. If you like what's happening, say so.
Show that you are alive, in the moment, and there with your partner, not just waiting for the time to tick away while thinking about laundry. (Even if that's not what you are, that's what your partner might think you are doing if you minimize reactions and participations, and that's decidedly not sexy.)
It's really not so much about that secret magic technique or something, just about really being present, trying to find out what your partner likes, being happy to participate and experiment.
That said, look up "frenulum orgasm" if you want to surprise your partner with a secret magic technique that they themselves might not even know. It's the male equivalent to a clitoral orgasm, and many guys have never heard of it.
That (a) everyone educates themselves on how their body and the body of their partner(s) work, (b) that everyone educates themselves on how they can pleasure their partners (and optionally themselves too, why not) and (c) that everyone actively participates and contributes when they are having sex, all of that irrespective of gender or sex.
It's ok to sometimes lay back and enjoy your partner running the show, but if that's the case every single time, then you are doing something wrong.
First comment: "My 30 seconds just isn’t going to cut it." -> Clearly a man
Second comment: "That’s why you have a mouth and hands, potentially even getting your thigh in there. Honestly, the penis in the vagina is sometimes the least exciting part about sex with that arrangement of genitals." -> Telling a man that PIV is not the only thing to do, but that he should be putting in more effort than just offering a penis
Third comment (my comment): "The same is true the other way round too. Which makes it all the more frustrating that a lot of women think their whole contribution to sex is to lay there and provide a vagina." -> Telling women that PIV is not the only thing to do, but that it would be cool if they too put more effort in than just offering a vagina
So you think that's the level of effort a woman is supposed to put in, because she's a woman and thus can't be responsible for her actions? That's incredibly sexist.
