There are two colloquialisms for what you’re asking about. When a person has a penis that looks about the same size flaccid (soft) that it does erect, folks colloquially call that person a “shower,” because their penis shows itself to be pretty much the same as it is erect. When a person has a penis…

The first thing I’d ask you is if you – and your boyfriend – feel too young to possibly be someone’s parent. I ask that, because one huge risk with unprotected sex is pregnancy. Statistically, in less than one year, 80-90% of people (and remember, too, teens are often far more fertile than us…

Frankly, if your first thought is to try and change your body – rather than to change the dynamic of this relationship or get out of it – something is horribly amiss. Your husband is clearly ignorant when it comes to bodies. A penis – be it his or anyone else’s – doesn’t have the capacity to…

For the record, there isn’t anything abnormal about oral sex: it’s a very common practice. People (and other animals) have been engaging in oral sex for a mighty long time. As well, the risks of infections from oral sex are actually substantially less in most cases than from vaginal intercourse, and…

I hear people talking about foreplay and pretend like I know what it is, but I have never really understood. Heather Corinna answers this question about foreplay.

It’s not bad at ALL to have laughter be part of your sex life: it’s ideal. Laughter is an expression of joy, after all, and ideally, sex should be an expression of joy, too. Nervous laughter is also okay: sex with a partner can make us feel anxious, nervous, or highly excited and it’s normal for…

The most likely possibility is that what you’re seeing coming out of your vagina is simply semen: the sexual fluid which carries sperm. The vagina isn’t a bottomless pit: it ends with the cervix, the base of the uterus. The opening to the cervix – called the os – is incredibly small. It can dilate…

(Amsinha’s question continued) Whenever I’m alone my mind drifts to the fact that I was already 18 and that he didn’t exactly rape me and also that I wasn’t careful enough or alert enough. I feel as if I should have known that when he complimented my hair that there was something inappropriate. Most…

Fantastic question! It’s so important for people to remember that usually when we’re looking to engage in activities of any kind where there are some risks of negative or unwanted outcomes, it’s usually because we also want to take risks of discovering or getting some positive or wanted outcomes. If…
