Lube doesn't have anything to do with it. Lube is blood plasma that seeps through the walls of the vagina (sexy). You've got lots of blood so that's not an issue (although it's still not a cup every 30 seconds).

Yeah, I should really seek therapy for my E/N issues involving sex and attraction, but I really don't know if its worth it. It basically is a lifetime of issues that I just learned existed a year ago and I feel that most people wouldn't understand. :emo:

Also, I recently took a history of sexuality class and we watched a few scenes from Deep Throat It almost blew my mind that the female characters pursued their own sexuality and got men to pleasure them. I understand that Deep Throat was shown in mainstream cinemas, so it was pretty sophisticated by porn standards, but what the hell happened to hetero porn? A lot of the heterosexual female students said that they preferred watching lesbian porn to het porn.
That's, uh, an optimistic reading of a woman "pursuing her sexuality" (only getting off by giving blowjobs). You don't think it's about the male fantasy of "what if I got blowjobs all the time and I didn't have to do anything"?

You might also want to read up on the star, Linda Lovelace/Boreman, and how the movie was actually made.

This sounds horrifying and painful.

I've only been with one partner (my husband) so I am completely sexually inexperienced.

And shy. You know. With sex things.
You don't have to do it if you don't want to. Only do it if it sounds fun to you.

Some guys are scared and not sure what they're doing, so they err on the side of being super delicate because they're afraid they'll break something. If you like a delicate butterfly touch, that's cool, but your G-spot is kind of embedded up in there so it won't feel anything that way. I don't mean you need someone who's like "hell yeah, I'm going to break you in half," just somebody who's not afraid to apply pressure. It's like a massage, where they need a little bit of force to reach and relax your muscles. But if you don't like massages, that's cool, you don't have to.

Think about the pressure of a firm back massage. That's about the level, if it's something you want to do.

But this part --

anaaki posted:

We've been together 7 years, but all we've established is "the routine". I get oral sex (since that's the only thing that works for me, so far) and then missionary. Exciting. We both just got frustrated over time because I felt "broken" and he felt less like a man because he couldn't get me off. My vagina literally feels nothing. No pleasure, no pain.
is a big mess that will get in the way of almost anything fun.

Your junk is working totally as intended. It's normal and fine not to get off just from penetrative sex. Coming from oral is actually way more normal. You aren't broken whatsoever. If you want to try new things, you could try touching yourself, using a vibrator, etc., while he's loving you (maybe in new positions). But seriously, what's happening now is super super normal and good. It's not broken at all. What will have a bad effect is you getting all worried about you being broken and him being unhappy.

His "less like a man because he couldn't get you off" hangup is actually seriously broken and weird. First of all, whether or not you can come has nothing to do with how much of a man he is; different people need different stimulation, that's not a reflection on their partner. And second, he IS getting you off! All the time, apparently! His dick just isn't magical. Big surprise, dicks are not magical, and just sticking them in is not enough for the majority of women. If he won't be satisfied until that happens, he's going to be waiting a long loving time, so he shouldn't get hung up on that goal.

It's good that you're in therapy, but can/have you talked about this with your therapist? Is your husband open to talking to your therapist or doctor and finding out how normal this is? Seriously, nobody has been hung up on vaginal orgasms since Freud.

Finally, I don't want to naysay you, but I also don't want to give you false hope. Even if you can find and enjoy your G-spot with toys or fingers, that doesn't mean it will be stimulated during penetrative sex at all. Even if everything goes perfectly with the toy, you getting off with it is still going to be you getting off basically the way you do now. Which is great, and it's fun to learn new tricks and everything, but if he's not satisfied when he makes you come from oral, how is that different from him making you come with a toy?

Sorry, you're right that was for HSV-2, I hit the wrong thing on my phone.

But those super high numbers you're talking about are for lifetime prevalence. Goons aren't 80 and hopefully aren't having sex with 80-year-olds. In your 20s-30s, the prevalence is much lower. If we're aware/careful about HSV-1/2, hopefully we can keep the rate low as we age, as opposed to just going "lol whatever we all have it already" and then catching it.

No because you don't get cheek herpes :confused:


GoodBee posted:

Please correct me if I'm wrong. I got my information from earlier in this thread mostly.

HSV-1&2 aren't considered STDs because they don't have any effects to the reproductive system. They're considered a skin disease.
HSV-2 is considered an STD; HSV-1 is increasingly becoming one (you can get either type in either location). They do affect the reproductive system.

quote:

They typically are not tested for on regular STD screenings. They are usually only tested for if you have a sore. You and/or your partner could have the virus and be asymptomatic. If you're asymptomatic, you are unlikely to transmit it.
True. (It's still possible to transmit it with no outbreaks.)

quote:

The biggest risk is the sores may make it more likely for HIV to be transmitted. Aside from that, they are just uncomfortable and unattractive.
Well, no. If a pregnant woman gets herpes, the baby has a chance of being seriously hosed up. If you touch your junk/mouth and then your eye, you could go blind (sounds unlikely, but it's the most common cause of corneal blindness in developed nations).. HSV-1 is linked to Alzheimer's. There are a bunch more gory possibilities you can find on Wikipedia or in your high-school health textbook.

A lot of people have it, it doesn't make them dirty or bad or whatever, but there are plenty of good reasons not to want it. You might be a lucky carrier who doesn't have symptoms (but does infect others), or it could really screw up your life.

Condoms don't prevent herpes or syphilis. They do still protect against it. The chance of transmission is cut in half.

If you're sometimes having sex just fine, then it doesn't sound like vaginismus. On the other hand, you know she's totally inexperienced, she's tense and embarrassed, and she's too shy to even talk about it . . . you don't have to look for any other reasons.

Don't give her homework, don't pressure her into things she doesn't want to do. Just focus on having fun together and making sex (which doesn't have to include penetration) a relaxing, comfortable experience for her.

If it was years ago like in your example, your partner could just as easily make up way worse total lies. With zero proof, nobody would care.

The original name was Implanon. They made a tiny tweak to the material (just so it shows up on X-rays) and now the new version is Nexplanon. They are baller, I got my first one like 8 years ago? and haven't shut up in the birth control thread since and have made some converts!

I don't know why nobody knows about it. It's the most effective birth control there is, lasts 3 years, installation/removal is fast and easy, fertility returns quickly, no estrogen so fewer risks and side effects. But even doctors often aren't aware of it -- even if I go in for a sore throat, after they ask what meds I'm on, everyone in the office wants to feel my implant. I actually saw an ad for the first time ever a couple weeks ago, so fingers crossed more people will hear of it.

The main negative side effect is irregular bleeding. About 30% of people end up with no period at all, including me which I love. But other people can spot at random and obviously that's not fun.

Stubble on the dick itself is the absolute worst, because the areas you presumably want on it are super sensitive. Shave right beforehand. Waxing or plucking would buy you more time. Laser would be permanent/semipermanent.

Any waxer has seen thousands of buttholes. Shaving is also completely doable, though. With both, the trick will be timing it to avoid stubble.

Here's the vasectomy megathread if you want to ask other guys how much it was or how old they were.

Anne Whateley
Feb 11, 2007
:unsmith: i like nice words
It's still way more invasive. Think about where Fallopian tubes are vs. the vas. You're going into the body a lot farther.

It also isn't as effective (isn't even as effective as some kinds of birth control). The Essure procedure is putting in rods, which irritate your tubes enough that they become filled with scar tissue and basically seal themselves shut, so you can see why there can be side effects. (In contrast, vasectomies usually just cauterize or suture the ends.) Essure is also made with nickel, which is a pretty common allergy.

It definitely works for some people, some people love it, but there's no question it's a bigger deal than a vasectomy.

Nobody has physical test results in their nightstand. You don't even get printouts, they just call you and say "all good" or whatever. If you don't want to go down on someone who hasn't been tested, don't bother with dental dams imo, just use hands or a toy.

If you look it up, prevalence in goon demographics especially is a lot lower than 80%. It's worth being aware of and it's reasonable not to want it.

Gardasil protects against the most common cancer strains and the most common wart strains. Those strains cause ballpark 70% of genital cancers and 90% of genital warts. The new version, Gardasil-9, includes 5 more strains that cause an additional 20% of cervical cancers. (But you can't get the new one if you already got the original Gardasil, so I'm jealous)
