Re: Bath tub fingering questions(s) - Help?
That's actually useful context to have! So, I think it might be helpful to next read this piece: You're Not Pregnant. Why Do You think You Are? . It addresses some of the common reasons we might have anxiety around pregnancy and suggests next steps. If you see reasons in there that feel like they ap...

Re: First Vib..
Like you said, everybody is different, so how--or if--someone can increase the intensity of their orgasm varies a lot. The biggest piece of advice I has is to give yourself lots of permission to experiment, not only with different movements, paces, etc during masturbation, but also with different fa...

Hi darbby,
Do you also feel intense, hard to manage anxiety around other things in your life? Or does it only seem to happen around things that are sexual?

Re: paronychia and hiv
Got it. So, if you're having trouble trusting someone, that's a sign that you're not ready to be sexual with them, since trust is a BIG part of being sexual with another person. Given that, I'd say it's best to not engage in anything sexual with her going forward unless you resolve whatever it is th...

Re: Squirting??
Can you say a little more about why you would be crushed if this was the average intensity you had with orgasm? Too, when you masturbate, would you say you're really engaged in a fantasy or something else that makes it easy for you to get and stay aroused? I ask because if that isn't a process that'...

Hi Kpanganib, As you'll see in that article Willa linked you, HIV is transmitted through 6 body fluids: blood, vaginal fluids, semen, pre-cum, rectal fluids, and breastmilk. But if those fluids touch unbroken skin, which it sounds like is the case here, then even if HIV is present, it can't be trans...

Hi Darbby,
No, EC does not need to be taken in this instance; for pregnancy to be a risk, there has to be direct contact between ejaculate/pre-ejaculate and the vulva or vagina, and that did not happen here.

Hi catadora_m, The general recommendation is to treat hickeys the way you would another bruise, and do things like icing them or applying arnica to the area to help the bruise fade. In terms of caring for sore nipples, the main thing you can do is try and keep them from getting irritated as they rec...

Okay, so it sounds like a good next step is to figure out how to get in to see someone sooner rather than later.

Sure! One might be to try to engage in the media containing that character a bit less, including by exploring new media that interests you or returning to familiar media that you know you enjoy, just to spread your focus around a bit (too, in my experience that can help bring us into contact with ot...

Hi H0pefull¥, A helpful thing to keep in mind about fantasies is that, even thought they can sometimes clue us into elements of our sexual orientation or things we might enjoy in our sex life with another person, they can also entail things that we have zero interest in ever doing. Given that, if th...

If you're in a living space where things like the laundry or sinks aren't set up for any degree of privacy, that can for sure make it trickier to try to clean anything like a sex toy.
