The best person to ask that question of is.... (drumroll please) ... your girlfriend! She's the one who knows the answer to this question. When you're doing something sexual with someone, and they're not reacting in any way or don't seem to be fully along for the ride, the first thing to do is to...

Oh sweetie! Let's break this down and deal with one issue at a time here to see if we can't work this all out, shall we? First off, let's talk about this labia issue. How many real life labia (other than your own) have you seen up close and personal? I'm going to guess you probably haven't seen very...

If you go to an OB/GYN and your mother asks them to do this, the very first thing that should happen would be for that doctor to explain that is not what should motivate a parent to get their child sexual healthcare, and hopefully, they'll also tell her that going to the gynecologist should be about...

A couple of years ago, I learned to knit and I got really really interested in knitting. Anytime I was sitting still (and sometimes when I was moving) I was knitting. But then, after a while, I sorta stopped getting that urge to knit everytime I sat still. It wasn't that I didn't enjoy knitting. It...

No it is not. Let's dissect this so that you understand why not. You don't urinate from within your vagina, but rather from your urethra, a very small, barely visible opening on your vulva between your vaginal opening and your clitoris.

Before I say anything else, understand that you've got nothing to be scared about here, okay? You also don't need to feel embarrassed about not knowing this stuff: not only do plenty of adult women not know either, it's certainly not your fault that no one has given you thorough sex education or...

While it's common for women -- especially young women -- to feel pain or discomfort with sex, it's not "normal" in that it has to happen or there isn't an alternative. Sex is not supposed to hurt: it's supposed to feel very good. If you're bleeding after sex every time, and it's also not feeling...

Nothing in the world is wrong with you. We explain this a lot here, but I'll say it again: the majority of women do NOT reach orgasm through vaginal intercourse alone. You're not the only one asking, either. Sadly, more women than not have just never been informed as to how their sexual anatomy...

Not only can you not stop your vagina and vulva from lubricating, that is what HAPPENS to people with vaginas when we become sexually aroused. It's supposed to, ideally, because if we're not lubricated, vulval and vaginal sex -- as well as some kinds of clitoral stimulation -- doesn't feel very good...

I'm glad you've found things on the website that have been useful for you! Being educated about your body and about safer sex practices goes a long way toward making sex both safer and more enjoyable when we are ready for it and do want to be engaged in it. Keep in mind here that there is no one...
