Let's Talk Sex

How open are you when your friends, family, whoever asks you about your sex life? I have a friend who always wants details!
I personally will talk in generalities, and most times try to change the subject. Maybe I'm a prude, but I believe that information should stay between you and your partner. Of course, when my psychiatrist asks, I have to find a way to give honest answers, because his interest is in my best interest, and purely clinical (it still makes me want to blush, though). Make any sense?
Also, what do you do when someone starts talking to you about their sex life - I'm all about helping friends, so if there's something specific I'm open to discussing it, to a point. I still don't really want to know, though.
I'm not judging, I'm honestly curious. How much do you share? How much is too much for others to share with you?

If I had a sex life I would talk to my friends about it. Probably not my family, though my mom and I are pretty open about sex. -

Dani - I envy you with your mom. I was raised Catholic, so as far as I'm concerned, I could be married for sixty years with twelve kids and still want my mom to think that I'm a virgin. Although I know that she knows that I'm not. We have a lovely policy of not talking about the tricky situations in my family. -
