Not necessarily.  Lots of tantra is specifically designed to please men
(either in some sort of world-renunciation or through the development
of resistance to the giles of the evil women).


|My wife an I have agreat sex life but it never hurts to improve. 

Tantra is not just about sexuality.  In fact, tantra suffuses life
with sexuality.  That is, we stop thinking about sex as just that
short range of physical touching and tension-release-ecstasy thing
and start to see the Bigger Picture.


|Anyone know any technique's that would be good for a first timer. 

Sure.  Stick your finger up your butt (lubricated) and see if you
can relax completely.  Good, now try it with two, then three.  See
about a fist.  If you have a hard time manipulating your wrist,
get your wife to assist with her hand.  Have her clip her nails and
buff them first (or wear rubber gloves) and take off her rings.


|Something basic that could be incorporated into standard lovemaking. 

This qualifies.


|If I mentioned the word tantra my wife would think it was a load of 
|voodoo crap. 

It is.  Don't bother.


|Still it sounds like something she and I would enjoy.

It isn't a bubble-gum or a roller-coaster.  Don't bother.


|Sereous advice only please  

Serious inquiries only please.  Tantra is a life-pursuit, not something
one can test out, untouched and unaffected by it.  It turns your world
upside-down.  It is the very life-blood of awareness, the full spectrum
of consciousness.  To try to 'get tantra' like so much new spinach is
rather disrespectful of the incredible traditions which have terrorized
its good name.
