Anal Sex: Sinful or Sexy?

It’s okay and normal if you orgasm (“cum”) quickly. It’s called “premature ejaculation,” and it’s common for guys, especially if they’re young and have little sexual experience. As you mature and gain more experience, you’ll gain more control over your orgasms, too.If you want to try and slow down ejaculation, you can try a couple of techniques. If you’re masturbating, when you get close to orgasm, you can slow down the pace and wait until the sensation goes away a little bit before starting back up again. When you’re close to orgasm, you could also try squeezing the base or head of the penis to slow down the sensation.If you’re having sex with a partner, you should wear a latex condom. This not only protects you both from most sexually transmitted infections, but it takes away some of the sensations during sex and helps you last longer, too.Premature ejaculation can also be a mental thing. If you’re too anxious about having sex, it can play a major role in how fast you’ll orgasm. Just relax and let yourself mature and gain experience at your own pace. ------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------- Sometimes it takes women longer to recognize the sexual desire because their signs of arousal are more subtle. Rather than an erection, women feel lubrication, or wetness in the vaginal area. It’s caused by the same thing as erection -- more blood is flowing in than out, explains Steinhart. But it doesn’t stand up and demand to be noticed -- like an erection.That’s why boys usually masturbate earlier than girls, Steinhart says.Teenage boys also get "reflex erections" all the time. That means the penis gets hard, often without any reason or stimulation. Guys also get erections at night, usually during the middle and late stages of the sleep cycle. These reflex erections become less frequent as you get older.In the meantime, to minimize embarrassment, try briefs instead of boxers. ------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------- Preparing your body for pregnancy at least one month ahead of time -- both physically and nutritionally -- can be among the most important factors in improving your odds of: conceiving more easily, having a healthier pregnancy, ultimately delivering a healthy baby and recovering more easily. Wanting to have a baby creates a natural desire to make things go as healthfully and worry-free as possible. Couples want to be able to make informed decisions and take an active role every step of the way. It also brings to mind a myriad of questions about what you should and should not do! What are the most current, scientifically backed recommendations when it comes to preconception nutrition and physical fitness? The following 12 tips should be used as a guide to help you make the right choices. 1. Future moms, go visit an Ob/Gyn, and request a "preconception" check-up. Future dads should go in for a general physical (preferably 90-120 days before!!). The doctor will address immunizations you may need and personal and family medical topics.2. See your dentist for a check-up.3. Get to a healthy body weight (in a healthy manner). This applies to women who are too thin or too overweight before pregnancy. Do not ignore this! It is really important for the future baby, and you might need to postpone your date to start trying.4. Eat a well-balanced diet that includes a wide variety of healthy foods from all the basic food groups. Be aware that there are some foods you should completely avoid (i.e. liver). Also, keep well hydrated primarily by drinking water.5. Stop taking any and all supplements unless approved by your physician; this is particularly important if you are "already trying". Your doctor will likely prescribe a prenatal supplement to begin taking now.6. Make sure your intake of the B vitamin, folic acid, is optimal to help prevent birth defects. Good sources: prenatal supplement, enriched breads, pastas, cereals, dried beans/lentils, asparagus, wheat germ, greens, and orange juice (to name a few).7. If you’ve been told you have anemia (iron deficiency), it should be resolved prior to conception through dietary means and iron supplements prescribed by a doctor.8. Begin reducing your intake of caffeine to very low levels; no, you don’t have to eliminate it altogether.9. If you are not practicing really good birth control, eliminate all alcoholic beverages; dad, keep alcohol intake modest. Also, quit smoking, and no illegal drugs (mom & dad).10. Use proper safety precautions around worksite agents, chemicals, lead, and other potential hazards (mom & dad). The future mom should not handle kitty litter; let someone else change the box from now on.11. No more lounging in hot tubs or saunas, especially for the future father (during the entire preconception phase). Hot showers are fine.12. Make sure you establish a reasonable, regular exercise routine. Your level of fitness prior to pregnancy is basically what will determine how active you can be once pregnant. There are many, many advantages to being physically fit during pregnancy.One final note: Give yourself a lot of credit for being conscientious enough to plan ahead! RELAX and enjoy yourselves during this special time in your lives!
