I feel that is a fair tradeoff for having the worst reproductive system.

My dick might lack options when it comes to preventing it from being a pregnancy risk but at least it doesn't try to kill me.

Yeah, you're not wrong. Play to your strengths, is all I'm really saying.

Cowper's fluid is a lubricant? How could it possibly fulfill that role? Hardly any of it gets produced.

It's not like it's the only thing doing that, vaginas obviously produce a lot more lube... precum is more for keeping the penis comfortable for the guy, though.

Precum isn't meant to be a lubricant, it's there to clean the urethra. Urine is acidic enough it'll kill sperm.

Alright, we tried again at her request and we made little to no progress. We tried with fingers, and we achieved moderate success.

I told her not to worry, that vaginal penetration isn't the be-all, end-all of sex life. So we spent the rest of the night doing other stuff. She tells me she enjoys all of the other stuff we do together, but she still wants to try vaginal sex for the first time. She wants to try again on Monday, even. I told her that I'd rather she saw a gynecologist, and she agreed, which makes me happy, so we'll see if she can set an appointment for next week - I know she'll be a little annoyed if she can't get an appointment till halfway through November but I am doing my best to support her. I hope it's not something serious.

If she's having trouble with 2 fingers, I'm not sure she's going to get much farther with a bottle.

Glad to hear it. I don't want to harp on, but I did just want to reiterate that you should still get further with fingers before attempting penetration with a penis. I hope you guys can have more fun soon!

I'm really concerned about a membrane-like ring I felt was constricting my fingers as I went further on with my fingers, and contact with it seemed to be the cause of her pain. I suppose it's the hymen? Or at least bone? No idea.

If you're reaching bone I think you've got a bigger problem, or you're salad fingers.

It might also have to do with me having very little idea about the female reproductive organ. :v: It didn't feel like bone, so yeah, let's discard that.

OwlFancier

AFAIK it should be a fairly distinct passage until you hit the cervix, and you shouldn't be able to hit the cervix unless you're jamming your whole fist up in there.

So if you're encountering a resistant membrane that's probably the hymen and she may have a particularly stubborn one which will be very uncomfortable for her.

Sounds like a hymen, yeah. If it is, the gyno will be able to snip it for her, which should solve all your problems.

Also definitely wrap that up. Precum can and will result in pregnancy. It's not to be trusted, man.

Likely the corona (the current medical term for what used to be called "hymen").

There are some good articles about this stuff on Scarleteen.com.

You're not alone in that feeling, but it's a really good resource for sex education, especially for virgins :) Very positive, feminist, and accepting! (And not pornography at all.)

I was wary of the name but yeah, it's a great and very positive website! I'm not a virgin, I've been sexually active for 9 years, and I found plenty of articles worth reading for a variety of topics. At first I thought that one goon was being condescending but nope, it was actually really useful and cool. Thanks!

I'm glad you found it helpful! It does feel weird to suggest it to people in their 20s and 30s, but I don't know another resource that's anywhere near as clear and specific about sexuality and sexual health.

as im getting older and older, i find my sex drive is just lowering. im 28. I havent been active in well over 2 years (really, REALLY bad luck and financial situations :smith:). i legit wonder if i could even get it up anymore. I was supposed to meet a friend of mine for a makeout session and i just felt nervous as hell at the thought anymore. luckily she had to cancel plans

is this natural?

I would say if you're having a really lovely time of life currently then yes you're probably not going to want to gently caress a lot. Stress is a pretty major depressant for the sex drive. And if you're worried about it that's going to make it worse too.

It's not exactly normal/ideal to think you have total erectile dysfunction at the advanced age of 28, no. If you jerk it often, stop doing that when the prospect of a hookup appears on the horizon. If you jerk it rarely or not at all, check in with a doctor.

I had similar symptoms at that age. Turned out my thyroid up and quit on me. Stress and poor self image can be big depressants on the sex drive, but if you haven't had a physical in the last few years consider going to get a check up.

Agreeing with others that stress, more than your age, is probably causing your problems. It's a vicious cycle of life stress gives you performance anxiety, which makes it harder to get aroused, which in turn adds extra stress and anxiety, etc, etc.

I've gone through your situation a couple times, and the good news is it's always come back for me pretty quickly. Not jerking it for a couple days also helps.
