I laughed out loud when I read that line. I think you were successful in what you were trying to convey, to clueless guys. I wouldn't use pounding. I'd use, physical, vigorous, or primitive.
Because it's true, women want to have good sex. And if you a. give a woman some time to get to know you, b. take your time, especially in the beginning, and c. listen and fold in instructions and feedback into your lovemaking... two people can have a lot of fun in the sack. And I think your run of the mill clueless guy would be surprised how lively a woman can be in bed when she's comfortable with herself and her lover.
Really, it's not rocket science.
