Anon, it’s never wrong to not want to do any given sexual activity. Everyone has their own wants, needs and preferences, and you get to have yours just like anyone else. While it can take a little adjusting for sexual partners to find middle ground in terms of what both want and prefer, a partner…

You know, it’s not often going to feel good to anyone to have someone just stick a finger into the vagina. There really aren’t “tight girls” and girls who aren’t tight. The tightness of your vaginal opening and vagina is mostly to do with how sexually aroused and relaxed you are, and if what someone…

Jay: the thing about alcohol and sex is that, for some people, a little does tend to make relaxing a bit easier, but at a certain point (amount of drink), which varies for people based on their own individual chemistries and tolerance, it actually inhibits arousal, erection, and sexual performance…

None of this has anything to do with how much you masturbate. Nor is this likely about something that’s wrong with your penis. I am, however, seeing a few issues here that are either misinformed or not as they should be which are the likely culprits. For starters, understand that the vagina really…

It’s a pretty mixed message to tell someone they’re perfect, then tell them that you’re only interested in engaging in a certain sexual activity with them if they look a certain way per your liking (shaved, unshaved, what have you).

I think it’s sage to listen to yourself when you say that maybe you don’t want to get into something you’re both not sure about and are not sure you’ll like. If only one partner has any interest in doing an activity, and the other either has none, or is opposed to it, it’s generally best to just…

Any way you do it, however you define it. In other words, what “sex” even IS varies pretty widely from person-to-person and day-to-day, and can be or include ANY number of sexual activities. Intercourse is sex, but so is oral sex, anal sex, manual sex, making out, frottage, role play, cybersex…

It is actually quite different, presuming you mean vaginal intercourse when you say “regular” sex. That doesn’t mean your boyfriend is lying, he just may not know doesn’t know any better, since he probably hasn’t been on the receiving end of anal sex or any kind of intercourse before, or may not…

Advice

Unless your boyfriend’s penis is shaped like a tuna can, his size or yours are probably not the primary issue. For starters, when you’re using your condom (because I know anyone writing me surely isn’t a dummy and is therefore using a condom), use a generous amount of extra lubricant that is latex…
