Introduction
Sex is just about the best thing in the world. Wars have been fought,
technology innovated, and human progress itself launched and halted over
the pursuit of sweet sexual congress. Whether you’re enjoying it in a
relationship or doing your best to scrounge up a lay wherever you can, sex
makes our lives better. We now live in an era with unprecedented access to
information, where we can find vast archives of online data to “hack” every
aspects of our lives. And yet, women remain sexually unsatisfied on a scale
that seems unfathomable given the knowledge available to us. Truth is,
growing up as men we aren’t encouraged by our peers to do things like read
books on laying better pipe. We’re not really “taught” how to fuck at all,
we’re just expected to pick up on it through experience and locker room
wisdom. But more often than not this approach fails us, to the extent that up
to 80% of women surveyed have faked an orgasm and almost half are
routinely dissatisfied with their sex lives.
This book discusses techniques to have better sex. There is a lot of
good information out there at this point; this book aims to tie useful tips and
methods together in a simple, readable format that will teach the reader how
to concretely perform better in the sack. It includes references to science
without diving too deep into technical terms, it has some fun and interesting
facts from history regarding sex, and it frequently uses so-called “blue”
language. We won’t often dwell on the sentimental aspects of sex so
frequently leaned on in other sex guides, though we do of course respect the
intimacy and human connection provided by sex. So that’s us, who are you?
You are any man interested in learning how to be better in bed, whether
you’re a high school virgin or a seventy year old geezer who’s been married
for forty years. Even if you feel like you’re already the king of slinging dick
I guarantee there’s some useful and fun information you can glean from this
book.
The emphasis of this book is on pleasing a woman, not by buying her
flowers and whatnot but by making her cum hard where other men or
yourself have previously failed to do so. The first part discusses her anatomy
to get you familiar with some of the terminology we’ll be using throughout
the book. After that, we discuss “dick stuff”, which primarily covers ways to
overcome sexual performance issues such as anxiety over penis size, erectile
dysfunction, and premature ejaculation. “Getting There” is a brief discussion
of good hygiene practices and general behavior to make you more sexually
desirable. I promise I’m not going to recommend you wear platform shoes
and ostrich feather hats like some sort of pickup artist. We then move into
discussing concrete foreplay and sex techniques. After that, a quick section
on keeping it healthy in the bedroom, and then an introduction to the world
of sex toys for those who are unfamiliar. This book is very pro sex toy and
you should be as well if you want to maximize your potential in the twisted
sheets. We then discuss how to get the most out of anal expeditions, from
external stimulation to full on ass-fucking. The book is capped off with a
section on some useful extras like squirting and bondage play.
The language of the technique sections are often a play-by-play guide
from the perspective of your approach with a new partner, but can just as
easily be applied to a long-term relationship. The history tidbits provide
some interesting conversation topics, the science is kept to a bare minimum
to give you the knowledge to understand without feeling like you’re reading
a biology textbook. Information on topics such as menstruation and female
birth control is given to increase your knowledge and make you a better
lover and person. The information contained in the various sections is
related, though the specific topic jumps around often. As you read you’ll
come to find that open communication is held dearly as perhaps the essential
foundation from which all good sex is built, and that applies to your pleasure
as well as hers.
Every partner you have will be sexually unique in some way; the goal
of this book is to provide direction towards good sex through common
factors based on science, psychology, and human physiology. Nothing is
written here to say this is the cookie cutter guide as if every technique works
the same on every woman, although if you use the information written here
you will find a successful approach. Interpret as a forum of ideas to be
attempted, not necessarily as a recipe, and whether that spans a one night
stand or a decades long relationship you will find something that can
improve your stick game. So grab your nuts and let’s dive in.
Definitions and Diagrams
This section will acquaint you with the basics of her gear to provide
you with the appropriate lingo and the utilitarian information to know what
you’re working with. Most of the parts discussed can be seen on the diagram
below. Knowing her body is indispensable to your ability to approach
sexually, and the genitals are often covered very briefly in sex ed classes,
with unfortunate results. I was once involved with a girl who thought women
peed out of their vaginas. She was 25.
◆◆◆
The Mythical Clitoris
The clitoral tissue is comparable to that of the penis, as it fills with blood
and swells during arousal. The clitoral hood is equivalent to the foreskin; it’s
a small flap of skin that protects the sensitive glans. When performing
cunnlingus or giving her a handy, you may want to gently pull this flap up
(pop the hood) to increase sensation for her. To do so, place your palm on
her groin with your thumb just above her clit and pull up lightly with the
thumb, you should see her clit become more exposed. For our purposes
throughout this book, we will use the phrase “clitoris” to refer specifically to
the glans…because I personally think that “glans” sounds a bit medical and
that’s that. The external clitoris can vary greatly in size and is often a body
image issue for women who believe theirs may be too large, a fun
contradiction to men’s issues with the size of their equivalent sex organ. To
continue the irony, larger glans are more likely to result in greater ease of
orgasm.
Labia
Her two sets of “lips” protect her clitoris and vaginal opening. The
labia majora are the outer folds of the external genitals, while the labia
minora are what we most often think of as the pussy lips. Labia vary widely
in size and shape, and are frequently a cause for body image issues in
women. Cosmetic surgeons have remarked that labiaplasty, reduction and
reshaping of the labia minora, is among the fastest growing cosmetic
procedures in the world. The labia can be stroked and kissed, and remember
that underneath the skin lies the “wishbone” of the clitoral network.
The Vagina
The vagina becomes moist due to liquid secreted from the Bartholin’s
gland as blood-flow increases during arousal. The extent that her pussy will
get wet can vary on the day and is generally related to hormones, emotional
state, and a variety of physical factors. This fluid is different from normal
vaginal discharge, which is the vagina’s daily method of cleaning itself by
flushing out dead cells and bacteria. That’s what the stains on your
girlfriend’s underwear are. Discharge is perfectly normal, though she may
experience occasional changes in the character of her discharge that require
treatment, such as during a yeast or urinary tract infection. Vaginas all smell
different; if you enjoy this scent, pubic hair works well to entrap it and vice
versa. If something smells significantly different than usual with your
partner, you should delicately inform her.
The G-Spot
The Cervix
The cervix is the gatekeeper between the vagina and the uterus. It
allows the flow of menstrual blood out of the uterus and helps to direct
sperm from the vagina up into the uterus. It is a narrow passage comprised
of strong muscle that is absolutely not meant to be penetrated or bumped.
Much of the discomfort that women can experience in sex will come from an
inexperienced or inconsiderate partner thrusting too deep and hard into the
cervix. The average vagina is between 3 and 6 inches long. It should be very
obvious to you if during sex your dick is hitting up against the cervix, as
you’ll feel resistance and more likely than not your partner will say “not so
deep” or “fuck off” or something to that effect. There is a certain holistic
Taoist sexpert who claims that all women are able to experience deep and
“spiritual” orgasms through cervical stimulation; if that interests you and
you have an open-minded partner, look it up and see if you can make it
happen. For most of your encounters, be cautious with thrusting deep
(communication as always will help).
Hymen
Perineum
The space between the anus and sex organs in men and women. An
erogenous zone that can be stroked or massaged.
Ass
Nipples/Tits
Humans appear to be among the only species that commonly engage
in and enjoy breast stimulation during sex. The common evolutionary
theories suggest that breasts simulate the shape of buttocks, replicate the
storage of fat signalling fertility, and drive biological desire in this way.
Another popular if sort of weird to consider theory is that everyone loves
boobs because of breastfeeding. Whatever your preference in size and shape,
breasts and nipples can and should be incorporated into most healthy sexual
diets. Some women can orgasm from breast play alone. A friend was once
asked the age old question, “are you an ass or tit man?” He thought about it
for a second and offered the immortal, “I’m a pussy man”.
You may be uniquely concerned about the size and shape of your
cock, but she almost certainly has more body image issues. The media
absolutely bombards us with idealized images of women. Almost every
single advertisement or photo shoot you ever see of a woman looking
attractive is not only rigorously angled, lighted, and complemented by
extensive makeup sessions, but is digitally re-touched. It’s little wonder that
men and women alike have a perverse notion of what a “real” woman looks
like. Women have stretch marks, pimples, moles, body hair, fat in unwanted
places, all of the same things that men do. The first step you need to take is
recognize that the images you’re accustomed to seeing depicting desirable
women are highly fictional. You’re allowed to be attracted to what you want,
but if you need a woman in full makeup with a lasered pubic region and a
bleached asshole to get your dick up you need to grow up.
To that end, respect and be conscious of her potential body image
issues. Compliment as frequently as sincerity allows. Particularly when you
get together for the first time, go out of your way to praise her body. A
woman is often particularly insecure about her breasts, belly, and the
appearance and scent of her pussy. Be verbally positive, make sure she
knows you find her attractive. If you don’t, why are you doing this in the
first place?
Menstruation Primer
A woman’s menstrual cycle prepares her body for pregnancy.
Hormones estrogen and progesterone cause the eggs in the ovaries to mature
so they can be fertilized by sperm. The uterus develops a thick, spongy,
nutrient-rich lining to help nurture an egg should it be fertilized. Halfway
through the menstrual cycle, the ovaries release a mature egg to travel down
the fallopian tubes to the uterus. During ovulation, she is at her highest
susceptibility to pregnancy and will also often be very horny. If the egg is
not fertilized, the blood and tissue that grew to line the uterus to support an
egg break down and exit the uterus. Hence, menstruation. Women frequently
track their menstrual cycles to help prevent or encourage pregnancy or
simply to be prepared for their periods and use birth control accordingly.
Tampons, pads, and menstrual cups are some of the more common products
to absorb period blood. A fun note in an otherwise medical section, if you
hear Caribbeans say “bumbaclot” or “blood cot” the etymology refers to the
cloths women used to stem the flow of menstrual blood before modern
feminine hygiene products became widely available.
The days surrounding menstruation can be a real pain in the uterus for
most women. Mild to severe discomfort, bloating, and cramping are
common. Premenstrual syndrome, PMS, can also have mental and emotional
effects such as mood swings or depression. These are undeniably real and
are a natural if unpleasant part of many women’s menstrual cycle. So when
your girlfriend is moody, don’t be an asshole about it, get her a heating pad,
and chocolate seems to help.
Menstruation has been a core tenet of the designation of women as
unclean and/or inferior by patriarchal societies and religions. “Bumbaclot” is
fun to hear and say, but the downside is that it’s born from the Rastafari’s
association of menstruation with filth. All major religions find menstruation
to be a form of impurity. Recognizing that life is possible only through the
often uncomfortable process of menstruation, and not being a pussy about it,
is one of the fundamental steps to being a decent man in the world. If you
and your partner are comfortable with embracing the red tide, period sex is
just as good as normal sex; it can even help relieve menstrual symptoms for
her. Some notes:
● Depending on how heavy her flow is, you may want to lay a towel
down.
● Make sure to remove her tampon.
● While it is less likely that she will get pregnant from sex on her
period, sperm can live in her system for up to a week. Wearing a
condom cuts down on any risk and makes cleaning up easier.
● You can still give her oral sex on her period, though you will likely
want to stay high and focus on the clitoris. The smell will likely be a bit
more...rare.
● My favorite thing I read online today, about period sex: “You can
put away the KY during your period. Blood acts as a natural lubricant.”
Ominous.
Your Anatomy and Dick Stuff
Whether you still have your foreskin or not, your penis is normal. If
you do have foreskin, after childhood it should be easily and painlessly
retractable. If this is not the case, work to slowly and carefully exercise the
foreskin to the point that you can retract it painlessly. Use lubrication; if over
the course of several weeks you still can’t pull back your foreskin, speak to a
doctor. It’s important to wash underneath the skin to prevent a host of
potential complications. And to wash away smegma. If you don’t know,
smegma is cheesy, stinky buildup of secretions from oil glands in the
genitals. It’s fun to say the word but you definitely don’t want your partner
getting a taste (women can develop smegma buildup in the folds of their
labia as well; hygiene is good).

The most glaringly obvious question that many men have in relation
to their bodies and sexuality is “is my dick big enough?”. Every study that
ever comes out (and there’s a lot of these) finds the average penis size in
adult males to be about 5 to 6 inches. Our obsession with the size of our
penises causes untold numbers of men to experience mental and possibly
physical anguish and has resulted in a cottage industry of snake oil salesmen.
Around 85% of women report being satisfied with the size of their partner’s
penises, while 45% of men believe they have a small penis. Gentlemen, the
tough break is you are stuck with your gear basically as it is. While there are
surgeries and techniques that can lead to modest length increases, they
frequently do so at the expense of penis function. The best you can do is
accept that you have what you have and it’s no reflection on your
masculinity or ability to please a woman; most of the techniques in this book
to make your partner orgasm are highly independent of vaginal penetration
to begin with. Here’s a short list of penis enlargement techniques, none of
which are endorsed:
What about boner pills? There are five FDA approved medications to
treat erectile dysfunction. Of these, Viagra is the best known. The active
compound in Viagra, sildenafil, was first synthesized by Pfizer in the 1990s
in an attempt to develop a medication to treat hypertension and angina. The
compound was to lower blood pressure by dilating blood vessels through the
release of nitric oxide in the system. While it wasn’t so effective in treating
these disorders, the test patients did commonly end up with raging boners.
Pfizer repositioned it as an erectile dysfunction drug, it hit the market in
1998, and the little blue pill went on to become the most iconic medication
of all time. All other ED medications use a different active compound to
achieve a similar result. They have varying side effects and can’t be used by
some men, such as those with heart issues, but a doctor may decide you
should try to use medication to treat persistent erectile dysfunction.
And then there are over the counter pills. With names like Rhino and
Black Mamba, these giant suppository-looking pills can be found at most gas
stations and sex shops. They are frequently recalled for dangerous side
effects, most often use completely unproven herbal remedies, and are
expensive to boot. If you’re having persistent ED problems, go to a doctor. If
you find it embarrassing to speak to someone in person, there are now
services where you can get diagnosed and receive prescriptions online. Best
to stay away from popping giant, unregulated pills full of who knows what.
Premature Ejaculation
In his 1948 work Sexual Behavior in the Human Male, Alfred Kinsey
noted the average duration of intercourse before ejactulation to be around 2
minutes. A 2005 study of 500 couples across several countries found the
average to be 5.4 minutes, while a 2008 study of American and Canadian
sex therapists found they believed “desirable length” of intercourse to last
from 7 to 13 minutes. Online sex toy retailer Lovehoney surveyed 4,400
customers in relationships and found that most had sex for 19 minutes, with
10 minutes of foreplay and 9 of intercourse. There’s no right answer for a
length that constitutes good sex, it’s whatever feels good for you and your
partner. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself to perform all night long
like an R&B song. If you regularly bust a nut before you want to, this could
be premature ejaculation. It’s experienced by every man at one time or
another, but if you persistently struggle to last two minutes you may consider
medical help. Similar to ED, there can be many physical and psychological
issues that lead to PE. More often than not, working to battle your anxiety
surrounding the issue will be your greatest asset.

Alfred Kinsey was among the first major figures in the modern study of
sex. His reports on male and female sexuality in the late 1940s and early
1950s helped to pave the way toward more liberal attitudes towards sex in
general society, especially in relation to female sexuality. He dismissed
Freud’s claim that clitoral orgasms were “immature”, and his books became
controversial bestsellers that many claim served as precursors to the Sexual
Revolution of the 1960s and 1970s. He also had some really questionable
research tactics, such as interviewing pedophiles, mis-representing data, and
observing sexual behavior of research participants for his own gratification.
◆◆◆
Ian Kerner, author of She Comes First, offers several tips to those that
suffer from routine premature ejaculation, a condition he endured throughout
his 20s. He first suggests practicing holding off on your orgasms through
masterbation. The male orgasms consists of two stages: emission, in which
the urethra fills with semen, and ejaculation, where the semen evacuates.
Kerner and other experts recommend practicing orgasming to the point of
emission without actually ejaculating; when used in sex, anyone can try this
trick to last longer in bed. If you need to, stop thrusting as the minor
contractions, like a mini orgasm, wash over you. Resume when safe. He also
writes that he personally used SSRIs, a class of antidepressants including
Zoloft and Prozac, to help overcome his issues with premature ejaculation
and notes several studies supporting this use of such drugs. He also
recommends a relatively new lidocaine spray product, Promescent. Similar
sprays and oils using the common anesthetic have existed for years, though
Promescent does appear to have unusually good press and may be worth
considering. Additionally, consider trying out positions that minimize in and
out stimulation, and focus more on circular stroking motions with your hips
or try the CAT position.
With sexual performance issues, keep in mind that most women
don’t cum from vaginal penetration alone and that a good showing in
foreplay can more than make up for erection/ejaculation difficulties. No one
wants to struggle with these issues permanently and for many these are short
terms problems. In the meantime, focus on combining good tongue game
with educated sex toy use and you’ll be so distracted by her orgasms you’ll
forget that you were supposed to be anxious about your boner and there
you’ll be, ready to roll.
Virgins
All of the techniques in this book can used to good effect by anyone.
The average age that both boys and girls in the US lose their virginity is
around 17. If you’re running a little behind don’t worry about it. I lost my
virginity at nineteen, and while I didn’t have any more innate knowledge of
the female body than a 14 year old would have, I did do my fair share of
research beforehand. If you’re reading this, you’re putting yourself in a good
starting position. Don’t ever feel pressured to have sex just because your
peers are doing it, it’s your choice and there’s no point in doing it for
anything other than your happiness. But if you’re in your late teens, don’t
knock it til you try it. And for the love of God never, ever, ever get into
being an incel just because you’ve had a bumpy start.
◆◆◆
This section will discuss simple behavior that will enable you to get laid
more, though this book isn’t a pick up guide. If you are trying to learn to
better pick up girls, use guides like The Game with caution. The website
College Humor posted a video where they went around Hollywood asking
women in the street if a quote regarding women and sex was from The Game
or a famous serial killer. The majority of the answers they received were
wrong. Don’t be someone whose dating/sex mantras are more likely to be
regarded as serial killer quotes than pick up techniques.
Style
You can’t go wrong with your personal style as long as you’re happy
with it. As you’ll hear time and again, confidence is one of the primary
drivers of attraction. If you like listening to hardcore music and want to
pierce your lip dye your mohawk pink and wear a black shirt with a red
Pentagram and cut off sleeves, go for it. If you like wearing an oxford shirt
tucked into khakis with loafers, or even a full suit every day, have at it. No
pleated pants, ever. Clothes that are too tight or too loose are rarely ideal.
Try to avoid peacocking for the sake of peacocking, it’s usually asinine. If
you insist on peacocking, get yourself a pair of poulaines, the Medieval
shoes pictured below. The length of the toe was intended to display the
length of the wearer’s dong, and were early results of the myth that foot and
penis size are correlated.
Health
◆◆◆
Many sex therapists are increasingly moving away from the term
“foreplay” in favor of phrasing that more aptly represents how central non-
penetrative activities should be in any romp. Around 80% of women can’t
orgasm from vaginal penetration alone; while there are many techniques
(that we will discuss) to incorporate clitoral stimulation into vaginal sex, it’s
essential to start things off on the right foot. Women do require a bit more of
a holistic approach to get the most out of sexual encounters. Especially when
it comes to your first few forays with a new partner, treat the foreplay as
your main course. The tried and true method to starting things off right is to
take your time up top and move south slowly and with care. At every
significant point, make sure that she clearly wants you to continue,
especially the first time you hook up.
There is no conclusive explanation for why humans like to kiss. One
school of thought suggests that kissing is a learned behavior, stemming from
a time long before Gerber’s when our ancient ancestors and predecessors
would chew food and then deposit it into the mouths of infants. Yes, like
birds, and many many other species. The mouth to mouth intimacy came to
denote a more general affection and has remained as learned behavior passed
through generations since. Another side would be the instinctual argument,
which posits that face to face displays of affection are common across many
species and our kissing is similar to, say, nose-rubbing in dogs. The most
widely accepted theory is more biological and posits that the primary
motivation for kissing is based as much on smell as it is taste and touch, in
that we experience each others’ pheromones pleasurably as we lean in for a
kiss. Whatever the reason, as long as everyone’s been brushing their teeth
kissing feels good and swapping saliva is a nice lead-in to more intimate
activity.
While making out, start to stray downward by tracing your lips along
her neck. She may like a gentle ear kiss or may find it too ticklish. Be gentle
and move slow, but don’t dally for too long. When you’re alone on a bed
together, she likely doesn’t want to just kiss for 15 minutes. Don’t leave
hickeys above the collarbone, and not at all unless she’s established that she
would enjoy it. Remove her shirt and move slowly to the breasts, and as with
all things moving forward go gently until it’s been established that she wants
things a little rougher.
◆◆◆
Learn how to take a bra off. Most clasp in the back and have one or
more sets of eyelets and hooks. To unclasp with one hand, insert your index
or middle finger between the bra and her back and pull out gently. Pinch the
clasp together with your thumb on one side and your index and middle
fingers on the other and while pinching, push your thumb away as if
snapping your fingers. If in doubt, using both hands is easier. Even
experienced cocksman can have trouble with complicated bra clasps in the
dark, don’t panic. Take some time to research the basic mechanics of a bra
and you’ll be in better position to unclasp one when the time comes.
◆◆◆
When it comes to breasts kiss, lick, and suck lightly. The nipples
should harden as she becomes sexually aroused due to the release of the
hormone oxytocin. Many women enjoy the feeling of pressure that some
form of sucking produces, and often say they feel that sensation “pulsating”
to her clitoris. Maybe tomorrow night you’ll be clamping clothespins on her
nipples and whipping them but take it easy for now. Kiss up her collarbone.
Kiss her upper arms if you feel like it. Women are made to feel so insecure
by all the bullshit media tells them about how they should have 100,000
bucks worth of plastic surgery and be wearing full makeup at all times. It’s a
fraught world for women when it comes to body image, and moving slowly,
tenderly, and appreciatively is going to make her feel comfortable to open up
with you. Her body image and self-esteem are often going to be the primary
obstacles to you both enjoying sex as much as you should. Foreplay,
including your interaction leading up to the physical part, is the best way to
get her to trust that you want to share an experience with her and not just use
her body without respecting her.
Attempt from the beginning to be reactive to her. This is always
difficult to gauge and especially with a new partner, but you should be able
to read her to an extent to see what she seems to enjoy. If she moans when
you lightly nibble her earlobes or kiss her belly, but grows quiet
(uncomfortably?) when you’re sucking her nipples, try to read that and circle
back to the things that produced the marks of enthusiasm. If she doesn’t
seem enthusiastic about anything you’re doing, confirm verbal consent
again. If she affirms but remains quiet/still, ask her what she wants. It’s
always going to be awkward the first time, you’ll be better off in the long
run with feeling a little weird trying to communicate up front than if you
carry on and then later she tells all her/your buddies you were shit in bed. By
the time you make your move to cross the southern border, she should be
very ready for it.
Migrating South
Take her pants off if you haven’t already. With her panties still on,
kiss down her legs, ideally to the knees and back along the inner thigh. Do
this several times. The goal with foreplay in general is to build up her
anticipation and get her raring to go when you finally move for the grail. If
you like, lightly trace your fingers up across her pussy over her panites. Kiss
and breath gently around the lines of her panties. Never shy away from
sustaining the teasing that builds her up. Caress and massage her inner
thighs, her butt, her pubic area. Foreplay in some form of the above is almost
always going to be the appropriate play for a first time. This is where the
proper technique splits and there’s really no way to gauge it until you’ve
done it. But on the bright side, follow this guide and you’ll probably get a
second or third shot to make sure you nail down the right approach for your
specific partner. Some say that a hot, wet kiss above the panties on the area
of her clitoris is the way to start more direct contact. Some favor the
approach of sliding her panties off, kissing around the area a little more,
perhaps even blowing softly on the clitoris as you kiss her inner thighs from
side to side.
To actually get your mouth on that pussy, you can go for a variety of
techniques. One is to send it with a big ol’ lick like a dog lapping some soft
serve ice cream. Start bottom to top, from just below the hole of her vagina
up and through her clitoris. Dip slightly harder into the vaginal hole and
lighten up on the clit, the latter is going to be an area where you see some of
the most diversity between women on how they like to be approached there.
If she responds well to that, do a second and third and then prepare to focus
on the clitoris. Another method is to dance more lightly into direct contact.
Tease her labia with your tongue, run your hands up and down her inner
thighs, and cycle closer towards licking her pussy hole, lips, and clitoris.
Every girl varies with how she would ideally like to be approached but the
main point is to move slowly and give her plenty of time to warm up. She
should be impatient to have you start going to town on her.
Start gently with the clitoris. After you first make contact, lick
around the area a bit more, repeating some of your previous motions while
expending a bit more emphasis on her clit each time you come through. If
she pulls away at all you’re going too hard, if she pushes her pussy toward
you she likely wants you to go harder at the clit. A tip I read in a book by
Jim Belushi (John Belushi’s bum brother) when I was fourteen espoused the
virtue of using the bottom of your tongue. The logic was that the clitoris,
teeming with nerve endings, is sensitive enough to react well to the
increased smoothness of the bottom versus the top of the tongue. To test this
you can lick your fingertip both ways, wash your damn hands first. It’s true
that the bottom of the tongue is smoother, but then again Jim Belushi is
almost definitely a total idiot and I’ve never come across this tip again so I’d
regard it with a grain of salt.
You can find a plethora of guides on eating pussy online or in print or
from any jackass you meet outside a bar, but in this case we’ll go with the
tried and true. From American Pie’s “tongue tornado” to side to side to up
and down to all manner in between, you can do a lot with that slippery thing
in your jaw to induce orgasm. Want to gauge the effectiveness of a technique
on clitoral stimulation? Look at what’s selling for sex toys. Right now sex
toys with an emphasis on a “sucking” motion are a big hit and growing. And
the great thing is this motion is easily performed and doesn’t fatigue the
tongue the way trying to trace the alphabet, constant circular motions, or up
down side to side do. So, suck gently while occasionally flicking the tip of
your tongue across and around the clit.
Increase the intensity of your sucking motion gradually, doing your
best to gauge her reaction as always. You may be driving the action, but she
is almost always going to give you an indication of what she likes and
dislikes. Women are all different but increased volume/vocality is always a
good sign. Don’t be completely static with your sucking motion, it’s not just
a vacuum of pressure. Move your tongue across her clit as you have it
between your lips, or make a sucking motion to pull her clit toward you and
release it rhythmically. Move carefully! As this process carries on and you
increase in intensity, you can wet your finger in your mouth (preferably with
lube if handy) and ease it into her. She should be wet, and if it doesn’t go in
easily wet further until it slides in and out without any resistance. If this goes
well try two, and while remaining focused on pleasuring her clitoris attempt
to find her G-spot and start stroking. Always gauge reaction. It depends on
your partner, but provided you’re doing everything correctly she will likely
cum within five to ten minutes. This will likely be accompanied by louder,
faster breathing, flushing/warming of her skin, and the undulation of her hips
directing her pussy harder into your mouth/fingers. If you’re lucky she’ll
give you verbal confirmation along the lines of “I’m gonna cum!” Resist the
urge to speed up mirroring the increase in her breathing or vocalizations.
Move faster/harder in relatively minute increments, what you’re doing
already is going to get her there. Her moment of release will almost always
be accompanied by a jerking of her body along with the signs mentioned
above. Her legs may open and close involuntarily.

Cunnilingus tip: Go up and give her a kiss with your tongue, let her taste
herself on you, if she’s not into it move on but the majority of the time this is
going to serve as positive affirmation that you’re into her flavor. This is
often a stumbling block that the girl is self-conscious about because of all
the cucks out there talking about they don’t like the taste/smell. By the way,
if the taste or smell are notably offensive to you then something may be off
and you may want to work more quickly towards sex or some other form
of stimulation.

Written somewhere in India around the 2nd century AD, the Kama
Sutra is an ancient “treatise on pleasure” that encompasses many different
aspects of living the good life. We tend today to think of it solely as a
manual detailing numerous exotic sex positions, although the original text
contains this information in only one chapter out of seven books.
Nevertheless, a quick Google search for “Kama Sutra: will come up with
more sex articles with titles like “215 Kama Sutra Positions to Blow his
Mind!” than it will references to other aspects of the text, which could
perhaps better be described as a guide to emotional fulfillment in
partnership. The Kama Sutra is worth noting as a very early example of a
text acknowledging the value of women’s sexual pleasure, an ideology that
is not often seen again in the historical record until recently.
Misinterpretation aside, the book does contain descriptions of some 65 sex
positions; for our purposes here, we’ll look in detail at only a few and
consider that most others are variants of the basics.
Missionary
Ol’ Reliable gets an unfair rep these days. Anytime someone wants to
disparage “vanilla” sex, they always gotta drag missionary into the mud like
it’s a boring position that only squares do. Missionary allows the best face to
face contact for effective communication of emotion and affection, kissing,
and you get a great view of her tits and can probably even suck at them on
and off. It’s also an easy and comfortable position for both parties and
fulfills the classic male on top dominant-submissive archetype that most
women enjoy during sex. Most sexual encounters will start in this way as it
rather naturally follows foreplay and is one of the best ways to start vaginal
sex. For most women, this position is relatively relaxing for her pelvic floor
muscles and is a good way to ease into sex during an encounter.
The advantages roll on and on. It puts you firmly in control of the sex,
which should be good if you’re doing things properly. With you doing most
of the work, she also gets to focus on her pleasure and orgasm. This man on
top position is also great for light bondage, like tying her hands over her
head or using nipple clamps. An excellent way to get better access to the G-
Spot is to tilt her hips upward by placing a pillow under her ass, which will
angle your dick right up into the front wall of her pussy. While your hands
will likely be occupied with propping yourself up (don’t...slouch over on
her) she has easy access to stimulate her clitoris with her hands or a vibrator.
And let’s not discount intimacy. In a one night stand, you’re probably not
going to be trying to stare deeply into her eyes while gyrating away on her
with a rose clutched in your teeth. But hopefully most of the sex you’re
having is with somewhat regular partners, and one of the greatest things
about sex in general is the ability to share emotional and physical intimacy
and there’s really no more ideal position for this than missionary. Very few
species in the animal kingdom have been observed having sex face-to-face,
and those that do are among the more intelligent (primates, dolphins).
There’s nothing wrong with celebrating our advanced intellect by banging
out looking each other square in the face like the civilized bipeds we are.
And then there are the extra tools available to the educated man. Time
and again we must acknowledge most women can’t climax from vaginal
penetration alone. The pillow under her ass is a good start to help you
toward the G-spot, but many will require direct clitoral stimulation. Once
you’ve fallen into a rhythm with someone and are comfortable bringing
something like a vibrator or a vibrating cock ring into bed these will serve
you the best, but before you’ve worked up to that there is a technique that
will help you stimulate her clit during vaginal sex. I’m talking, of course,
about Kittystyle. The coital alignment technique, or CAT, is mostly a fancy
designation for “riding high”. The goal here is to position yourself over her
so that your penis is angled “downward” and the base of your penis/pubic
mound is rubbing on her clit. You’ll want to focus less on thrusting and more
on grinding, whether horizontally, vertically, in a circular motion, or a
combination. Remember, the outer third of the vaginal canal is thought to be
the most important in sexual stimulation, so even if this position doesn’t
have you going deep you’re still putting in work internally while
emphasizing the clit. CAT has gotten a lot of attention since its initial
recognition in the late 1980s, and it’s definitely worth having in your arsenal.
I wouldn’t necessarily dive right into CAT, but gauge your partner and if she
doesn’t seem to be getting there from “normal” missionary, try riding a little
high. The best way to figure out if you should think about some kittystyle
the first time you’re with a new girl? Talk about her sexual preferences in the
lead up. If you know she’s a clitoris girl, that will help you from foreplay all
the way to the finish.
There are many variations of basic missionary that have a host of often
conflicting, overlapping names. Many of them are worth checking out but
probably don’t require branding as distinct positions, others are plain stupid.
One popular and worthwhile variation is to put her legs up, whether they rest
on your shoulders or your hands hold up her feet or thighs. This puts you
over her less and gives you a really good view of the action, while also
allowing you to thrust deeper. It also allows you to angle your dick upwards
toward her G-spot, and can frequently benefit further from a pillow under
her ass, especially if she’s not the most flexible.
From Behind
If having sex face-to-face is part what makes us human, doing it from
behind harkens back to our primal nature. The Romans called it coitus more
ferarum, Latin for “sex in the manner of wild beasts”. Wild beast style is
depicted in art throughout the ages and as its name suggests it replicates the
mating habits of most species on the planet. Traditionally, the woman
crouches on all fours and spreads her legs, with the man entering her from
behind and keeping his legs between hers. For a tighter fit, she can keep her
legs together while you straddle them. The advantages to doggy are myriad
and it should be considered a top position.It allows for some of the deepest
penetration and is also great for angling toward the G-spot. The position
demands little of flexibility, strength, and stamina for either party, and can
vary in intensity as you please. It can also free up both of your hands for a
whole host of activities.
And where should those free hands wander? First and foremost, to her
clitoris. This position is an excellent way to please her clitorally and
vaginally at the same time, and can easily lead to blended orgasms or keep
her happy if she’s clit-centric while you both enjoy the penetration. She may
opt to touch her clit herself, as this positioning makes it even easier for her to
do so than missionary. As always, a vibrator is an excellent addition. If
you’re comfortable together, you may prefer to have her work the clitoris so
you can use your hands to spank her, rub her asshole, pull her hair, or
squeeze her nipples. While we don’t condone “jackhammering” for the most
part, this is a great position to fucking plow away if you’re both into that. If
you want to focus more on the G-spot, you can lean over her back and prop
yourself up with your hands on either side of her, which will serve to angle
your penis downwards into the front wall of her pussy. In general, be
mindful of penetrating too deep and slamming into her cervix, that will shut
the festivities down quickly. Potential drawbacks could be that one of you
may feel the position isn’t intimate enough, although most sexual encounters
will span several positions so it’s unlikely this will be a problem. All in all, a
great position allowing for deep penetration, G-spot stimulation, and direct
access to the clitoris. Also, if you’re a butt guy it’s really fun to bounce that
donkey as you thrust.
An easy way to get even deeper penetration and better access to the G-
spot is to have your partner lie flat on her stomach with a pillow under her
hips. You then lay on top and control the flow as you would in the normal
position. A smart idea with this technique is to put some lube or massage oil
on her ass and your pubic region, to help you sort of slide around. This can
be a huge win if she enjoys deep penetration and G-spot stimulation. This
can also be great to add a level of intimacy, as you’ll be able to talk dirty into
her ear and kiss the side of her face. Another good variant and fun for sex
around the house (or in public you freaks) is to stand up while fucking from
behind. You can push her up against a wall, or bend her over a table or
counter as you rail away. These retain the positive aspects of doggystyle
while letting you travel from the bedroom a bit and can be great if you’re
feeling adventurous. Depending on height differences, this could end up
being a pretty decent leg workout as you may have to crouch a bit and do
some modified squats if she’s shorter than you.
Spooning sex is great for when you want to just chill out a little and
enjoy some intimacy without sacrificing the ability to work her G-spot and
clit. In the spooning position, all you do is spoon like you’re cuddling and
slip your dick in and go from there. If you’d had a big session and you’re
sweating your ass off and need to relax a bit but still want to orgasm, this is a
great way to do it. It’s also really nice for intimate love making as you’re
basically mixing sex and cuddling. It’s ideal for the last position in a set, for
morning sex, or when you’re both tired in general. In case I’ve made the
position sound like it’s a bum option for lazy people, be clear that it allows
you the same great access to her G-spot and clitoris as all rear-entry
positions, while also giving you an increased ability to caress the front of her
body. It’s also really good for intimate choking.
Saddle Up
Girl on top is the ideal position to guarantee that she takes the reins on
her pleasure. Enjoy a nice, relaxing lay down as she grinds away on you to
her satisfaction. Whether she likes penetration or prefers clit action, being on
top allows her to use your body however she wants to get herself there. It
gives you a great view of her bouncing tits and easy access to caress the
front of her body. It is very simply the best way to empower her to take
charge of her own orgasm; there are some things to keep in mind though.
Women often need more mental and physical focus than men do to come,
and when she’s doing the work you have to be wary of adding extra
distraction by trying to participate more. It’s a fine line between adding
sensation and creating diversion. Communication is always ideal, but if
that’s not working in the moment err on the side of caution. Let her work her
own rhythm without adding too much of your own, though keep your hips
rigid enough that she can grind away on your pole with good resistance. As
much as you’d like to honk those titties, limit the wandering of your hands
until you’ve established with your partner how much physical input she
wants from you. Once you do figure it out, you can easily lean up and suck
her nipples, touch her all over with your hands, and even spank her or touch
her asshole.
A popular variation is the reverse cowgirl. In this one, she sits on your d
and does the exact same thing facing away. One potential obstacle to women
wanting to climb up top is they may be self-conscious of their body and feel
that they’re drawing extra attention to perceived imperfections by being on
top (rolls and whatnot are going to appear more sitting up than they would
laying down). Facing away relieves some of the body image pressure and
gives her more freedom to make whatever weird orgasm face she wants. It
can also, depending on the angle of your erection, be great for hitting her G-
spot and regardless allows her access to her own clit. For you, this situation
provides a great view of her ass and lets you get a close look at your cock
sliding in and out. Front-facing or otherwise, a vibrating cock ring is great
for any cowgirl roundup.
There are some words of caution you should hear. Girl on top positions
lead to the most cases of penile fracturing. Remember, she has no idea what
it’s like to have a dick, and it can be easy for her to get carried away riding
your stick and accidently pull out too high then drop her full weight hard on
your cock. I hate to have to bring it up but it’s worth keeping in mind if she’s
getting aggressively bouncy. To help prevent this, and a good way in general
to be involved without worrying about distracting her from orgasm, put your
hands on her hips. You don’t have to exert pressure but you’ll have the
option to keep her pulled down to earth if she starts pulling up too high. An
offshoot of this risk is just her general lack of understanding that its not
comfortable for you to bend your penis overly, a consideration she may be
particularly unmindful of when she’s trying to angle your dick into just the
right spot. Nine times out of ten you won’t even have to worry about this
sort of thing as she’ll likely be using more of a grinding motion to stimulate
her clit than an in and out.
Don’t jackhammer. It’s not going to make you a popular lay and more
often than not it’s going to put your partner off to the point of no return.
Jackhammering is when you get in there and just crack away with in and
outs as fast and hard as you can. There can be a time in many encounters to
absolutely rail your partner, but your go-to move shouldn’t be to just full
tempo pound away until you come. I wish I didn’t have to even note this but
it remains a common topic among women discussing bad sex.
One of the most horrifying things you can do is to accidentally stick your
partner in the asshole on an incoming thrust. This type of accidental anal is
somewhat common and is a really, really terrible experience for your partner.
To prevent it, be careful not to pull out too far during really vigorous sex.
You can pull out all the way on your thrusts, you can have robust sex, but the
two shouldn’t be combined. That rule of thumb is just as much for your
protection as hers; aside from accidental anal penetration, you could miss
holes entirely and hit something more unyielding that could break your dick.
Practice safe sex every time! Most commonly this entails rolling a
condom on. Condoms are highly functional at preventing both pregnancy
and STIs, with an ideal theoretical 98% success rate. The “actual”
effectiveness is usually considered to be around 82%-85%. This doesn’t
mean that if you follow these instructions and use condoms perfectly that 2-
15 out of 100 times you’re going to knock your partner up; the consensus is
that these numbers represent an annual spread, so that over a year between 2
and 18 percent of women using condoms as birth control every time will get
pregnant. This ranks below birth control pills in effectivity, with the most
successful contraceptive aside from sterilization being IUDs. It’s nice to
have a partner who is on some form of birth control, but it’s always smart to
be safe and use protection regardless of the situation unless you’re sure your
trusted partner is using highly effective birth control. Be considerate of the
fact that every form of female birth control has side effects ranging from
somewhat annoying to full-blown traumatizing. Be grateful to your girl for
dealing with that so you don’t have any little rascals running around. We
won’t discuss female condoms here, as they are generally regarded as less
effective and are rarely used.
One of the oldest documented uses of what we could consider a
condom lies in Greek mythology dated to 3000 BC in the tale of King
Minos. You may remember Minos as the father of the minotaur, but your
school’s Greek myths primer probably didn’t go into Minos’ strange
condition of ejaculating poisonous scorpions and snakes, killing his
mistresses. His wife Pasiphae is said to have inserted a goat bladder into her
vagina and subsequently survived intercourse with the true Scorpion King.
The Ancient Egyptians used linen sheaths, the Chinese silk, and the Romans
animal bladders with the primary intention of stemming the spread of
disease, not realizing the contraceptive qualities of these early jimmys.
Meanwhile, the Japanese utilized the kabuto-gata, rigid sheaths made from
tortoise shell or horn that also served as an early precursors to penis
extenders. The European Middle Ages and Renaissance saw continued and
proliferating use of condoms made from animal intestine, which remained
the material of choice until the process of vulcanizing rubber was invented
during the Industrial Revolution. Increased production still didn’t lead to
widespread use until the mid 20th century, and venereal disease remained
rampant. In the 1920s, the use of latex for making condoms became the
standard, and along with increased sexual education allowed a decrease in
rates of venereal disease as well as accessible effective birth control in the
latter half of the 20th century.
While the condom is now synonymous with contraception, its
predecessors throughout history were often primarily used in disease
prevention. In the tale of King Minos, the goat bladder sheath actually
allowed Pasiphae to become pregnant eight times, with the early female
condom apparently passing the semen while catching the scorpions and
serpents. Mythology or not this would reflect the thinking of the Ancient
Greeks and Romans for centuries. While ancient condoms did provide some
successful contraception, other methods of birth control were often more
varying in their success. The Ancient Egyptian Ebers and Kahun papyruses
from 1550 and 1850 BC respectively both detail recipes for contraceptive
“pastes”, made from such ingredients as honey, acacia leaves, and lint to
form a sort of cervix cover when inserted into the vagina. Acacia gum does
in fact have spermicidal qualities and remains an ingredient in contraceptive
gels today. The most famous example of crazy birth control methods from
history is the Egyptian use of a paste made with crocodile dung, which is not
only disgusting but has since been found to have likely increased the
probability of pregnancy due to its effect on pH levels in the body.
Meanwhile, the Old Testament promotes the good ol’ pull out
method. We’ll discourage the use of this technique in a moment, but it was
probably the most effective contraception of antiquity. Meanwhile, the
Chinese utilized the similar technique of attempting to control ejactulation
completely, both as a means of birth control and as a way to preserve the
man’s Yang, considered the male life force in Taoism. The Ancient Greeks
and Romans used a variety of herbs, cervix plugs, and oils to varying
effectivity. From the Classical period through the Middle Ages, herbs to both
prevent pregnancy and induce abortion in the early stages of pregnancy were
commonly used, often effectively if with the potential for lethal side effects.
This knowledge passed through oral tradition and allowed women to retain
some aspect of control over their reproductive agency during the suffocating
Church control in the Middle Ages, which declared any attempt at
contraception immoral. In 1484, a papal bull was issued by Pope Innocent
VIII specifically encouraging the hunting of “witches” accused of promoting
the use of abortive and contraceptive techniques.
In the late Renaissance and 18th and 19th centuries, prophylactic
barriers such as condoms and diaphragms came to be recognized as
functional birth control. The search for effective birth control came to be
closely tied to feminist movements in the early 20th century as women
sought to take more active control over their reproductive rights. This
movement, led by nurse and founder of Planned Parenthood Margaret
Sanger, led to higher rates of contraception use and education, though it
sparked a backlash among conservative groups that continues in various
forms today. In the 1960s, the first birth control pills using a combination of
estrogen and progestogen (hormone medications to eliminate ovulation)
became available to the public and gained widespread acceptance. The latest
available report on contraceptive use in the United States from the CDC
covers the period of 2006-2010 and concludes that 62% of women of
reproductive age were using some form of female contraceptive (not
condoms), primarily the pill or sterilization with an increase in IUD use. It’s
highly likely that these rates have increased since, with a specific uptick in
the use of IUDs and implants (the most effective contraceptive techniques,
along with sterilization). A 2015 UN report found that contraceptive use is
increasing worldwide, albeit with the highest rates of use in the most
developed countries and vice versa.
There are several different materials used in modern condoms, with
latex being the most common. Latex condoms are made from a type of
rubber and are flexible, stretchy, and usable in pregnancy and STI
prevention. The advantage to latex is that there are so many different
varieties it’s easy to find the right size/shape, and there are also a lot of fun
bells and whistles to make sex more enjoyable for both of you. Most
flavored, numbing, and textured condoms are latex.
You may have seen or heard of lambskin condoms as well, which are
made from the intestinal membranes of young sheep. These are a great
alternative for people with latex allergies; if the idea of wrapping your cock
in processed lamb guts grosses you out, keep in mind it beats the hell out of
crocodile dung. You can also use oil-based as well as water-based lube with
lambskin condoms. However, the MAJOR drawback to lambskin is that the
material is porous, and while the pores are tiny enough to prevent the
passage of sperm, making them viable for birth control, they are not
effective in preventing the transmission of STIs. Thusly, these should only
be used with a trusted partner as a contraceptive. If you or your partner are
allergic to latex and want an effective way to prevent the passage of both
sperm and STIs, try using polyurethane condoms.
Polyurethane condoms are somewhat new to the scene but are gaining in
popularity. Not only are they a good alternative to latex, but they also
transmit heat better which research has indicated increases sensation for both
men and women. They do tend to have a slightly looser fit as the material
(made from thin, clear plastic) is not as elastic as latex, so you may have to
take a bit more care to prevent them from slipping off. Water and oil based
lubricants are usually fine. Polyurethane condoms are at the moment the
most expensive condoms.
Finally, there are polyisoprene condoms. These use synthetic latex to
retain many of the properties of traditional condoms without affecting people
with latex allergies. How does synthetic latex not affect latex allergies?
Natural latex is harvested from various types of trees, and much of the
biological components that influence allergies are coexistent plant proteins
rather than the latex polymers themselves. The laboratory “cleanliness” of
these condoms makes for a good latex alternative.
Always find the right size condom for you. Current research
indicates that 35% of men require a smaller than “average” sized condom.
To be clear, standard condoms usually fit for erections between 4 and 7.5
inches. Magnum condoms account for about 20% of the company Trojan’s
sales, but that doesn’t mean 1 in 5 guys has an 8 inch dick. Different sized
condoms are often more important for comfort and effectiveness in regards
to girth rather than length. There are various resources online to find the
appropriate condom sizes for you; one site (https://luckybloke.com) has
users measure with a toilet paper roll. The best way to shop for condoms is
online, especially if you need a size deviating from the standard. Not only is
buying online discreet, but it’s also the cheapest, followed by super-stores
like Wal-Mart. Sex shops are the most expensive.
The pull out method is tempting for those that want to experience sex
without a prophylactic barrier, but is difficult to use effectively. Planned
Parenthood suggests that of 100 women using the pull out method, four will
get pregnant each year IF the withdrawal is perfectly executed. They go on
to say that most likely an average of about 20 of 100 will realistically get
knocked up using this method over the course of a year, as this technique is
very easily fallible. Even if you do have excellent orgasm control, there may
be traces of semen or precum that have an offhand chance of swimming up
that river. Withdrawal can not be recommended, though it is somewhat
commonly practiced.
The word “dildo” first came into circulation around 1400 AD,
seemingly a compilation of the Latin words “dilatare” and “diletto”,
meaning “to open wide” and “delight” respectively. I struggle to think of a
better marketing phrase than “the dildo; open wide for delight!” The dildo in
some form or another has been around at least since the Ice Age and most
likely since the early days of homo sapiens and our predecessors, as several
species of monkey have been observed crafting makeshift dildos out of
sticks and rocks. The oldest known dildos in existence date from the
Paleolithic period some 30,000 years ago and were discovered in modern
Germany. They are made of highly polished rock or bone, and are explicitly
phallic in nature. While archeologist nerds have often attempted to surmise
some application in ritual, many now agree that the artifacts were indeed
used for sexual pleasure. And it’s not a difficult leap; these highly polished
stone dicks vary in size and shape, some with foreskin pulled back, some
seemingly with piercings and other decorations.
One of the next notable stops in the history of the dildo is in Ancient
Greece. Greece is regarded as the cradle of Western Civilization, and was
also the birthplace of many sexual practices. Indeed, many modern words
related to sex are derived from ancient Greek, such as aphrodisiac,
nymphomania, eroticism, homosexuality, and pederasty. While some of their
practices don’t look so good with a contemporary lens, i.e. older men taking
young boys under their wings in often sexual relationships, the Greeks did
have a lot of fun in the sack and approached sex with an openness in society
that we still lack today. One of their more infamous sexual practices was the
olisbokollikes, which was a sort of bread penis. It’s unclear whether or not
these breadsticks were used ritually or sexually, but there is also clear
evidence of dildos made from leather and wood. Of course, olive oil was the
lube of choice in Ancient Greece. Lysistrata, a famous comic play from 400
BC, involves a group of women trying to stop the Peloponnesian War by
withholding sex from their husbands. In one scene, they discuss using dildos
to satisfy themselves during the sex strike. The Romans played off of many
of the cultural dynamics of the Greeks and used dildos in ritual and in daily
practice.
In the East, artifacts related to sex including bronze dildos and jade
butt plugs are prevalent in archeological digs, especially in the tomb
excavations of wealthy royals and aristocrats. These sex toys played a
cultural role in the Han dynasty in China from 206 BC to 220 AD, in
conjunction with their use for sexual pleasure. The Han believed that sex had
a significant spiritual aspect in the balancing of male and female and yin and
yang, so these toys were not only for physical pleasure but spiritual
fulfillment as well.
When Christianity spread throughout Western civilization during the
Middle Ages, the raging boner of humanity’s sex drive walked hard into a
wall. Surely, Medieval women continued to use household objects to
pleasure themselves, but sexual practice in general was highly regimented by
the Church. The Renaissance saw a resurgence in philosophical liberation in
general and to varying degrees a slackening of the Church’s monopoly on
morality in society. Shakespeare refers to a dildo vendor in The Winter’s Tale
in 1623, and around this time nations across Europe moved towards slightly
more liberal sexual attitudes. As the Renaissance progressed in Europe, the
Edo period in Japan saw the widespread proliferation of “shunga”, erotic art.
These images often depict the use of dildos and strap-ons; the origins of
tentacle porn can also be traced to this era, with Hokusai’s The Dream of the
Fisherman’s Wife showing two octupuses pleasuring a woman. It’s very
strange. Hokusai is better known for his print, The Great Wave off
Kanagawa; I’m all for better sexual education but I’m perfectly content that
we didn’t explore his full catalogue in elementary school art class.
Dildos continued to be used covertly through the 19th and 20th
centuries. In the US in the 1960s, a Grenadan immigrant named Gosnell
Duncan was disabled from the waist down when a vehicle crushed him
during his factory shift. Unable to achieve an erection and dissatisfied with
contemporary dildos, which were often made out of rubber and performed
rather poorly in reaction to heat, he went on to create and market the first
dildos made of silicone. Throughout the 70s and 80s, Duncan and several
feminism-oriented sex shops helped bring the dildo and sex toys into
national prominence.
Silicone is hypoallergenic, easily cleaned, transfers heat well, and
feels more realistic than any material previously used. Silicone remains the
material of choice in dildos today, though you will also commonly find glass
and steel dildos. Cheap dildos may be made of PVC or rubber jelly; do your
research and avoid any sex toy made from these materials, as they contain
the softening agent phthalate that may be a carcinogen and renders the toys
bacterially unhygienic.
Merriam-Webster defines the dildo as “an object resembling a penis
used for sexual stimulation”. A polished rock in a cave. A
broomstick handle in a Medieval peasant’s hut. A carved piece of whalebone
in the lonely hands of a forlorn mariner’s wife in 19th century Nantucket. A
stamped piece of formed silicone with ribs and bells and whistles. The dildo
is among the basic tools of the modern gentleman to help us on our journey
to pleasure our partners and to enjoy ourselves in the process. For many
men, the thought of buying a dildo for our partner is scary. What if she likes
it more than me? What if it’s bigger, longer than me, always there when I
can’t provide after I’ve stuffed myself full of two Big Macs for no reason.
Don’t be afraid, the dildo, and sex toys in general, will only open doors.
Here are several good reasons to consider getting a dildo for your next
bedroom foray. Remember to ask your partner if she’s inclined first.
Every dick has a refractory period. If yours doesn’t than you’re a rare
breed. An excellent function of a dildo is to allow you to continue
penetration when you’re recovering but she’s still hot to trot. If you’ve ever
wanted a close look as her pussy expands and contracts around your cock,
getting to helm the controls or watch up close as the dildo penetrates her will
give you a nice angle that you don’t normally have access to. Hopefully this
view will either help you get your little soldier back to attention, or the dildo
work will take her where she needs to go if you’re ready to call it for the
night. The dildo can also serve as a placeholder for you, allowing your
significant other to experience penetration when you’re out of town.
Dildos are also useful for providing her an additional source of
stimulation if you’re focusing your attention elsewhere. You could use it in
lieu of your fingers to supplement while pleasuring her orally, or to make her
feel extra full while you fuck her in the ass. Your partner has possibly
imagined being filled by two men at once, the same way you have dreamed
of having two women fighting for control of your stick shift. It’s not a
stretch to imagine that many women enjoy the fantasy of multiple partners as
they so copiously outdo us in their capacity to make love in large quantities.
So, short of tagging in a buddy, a dildo can allow you to simulate a menage a
trois. Get one with a suction cup base that can attach to the wall or floor, and
you can fuck her in one hole while she works the other with the dildo.
Dildos come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and materials. They can be
realistic to the point of having veins and balls, some can even shoot out
liquid, or can be non-phallic and even non-human like some sort of Dr.
Seuss creation. Ribbed and beaded dildos can provide additional sensation
for her as they slide in and out, expanding and contracting her pussy with
each thrust. Discuss with your partner before buying or better yet shop
together, and make sure to communicate if you have issues with the size or if
you’d prefer to use a non-realistic dildo. Remember, at the end of the day it’s
a lifeless object, so even if you’re a 140 pound lily white nerd and she wants
a 10-inch black dildo it’s probably not indicative of some shortcoming on
your part and an object can never replace real human intimacy. A suction
base is often useful in play, as you can mount the dildo to a wall or floor and
free up hands for use in other activities.
Make sure to use an acceptable lube with your sex toys. Silicone
dildos cannot be used with silicone or oil lubricants. Your toy will likely
come with instructions for cleaning. In general, most materials used
nowadays can be cleaned with mild soap and water. If using toys between
partners, it’s courteous, morally honest, and maybe even legally wise to
disinfect by boiling in water, which should be fine for most high quality
toys. Many companies also make specific sex toy cleaning sprays which can
also be handy. In general, avoid cleaning with perfumed soaps or anything
else that shouldn’t go near her sensitive parts.
Vibrators
Unless you’re in possession of physiology or knowledge unknown to
most of mankind, your penis/tongue/fingers can’t vibrate. There are myriad
sizes and shapes of vibrators nowadays, and they allow women (and us) to
go beyond our physical limitations for sheet-twisting orgasms. There is no
better friend to the man seeking to heighten his sex game. Almost any area
on a woman’s body that is susceptible to sexual arousal will quiver at the
touch of a decent vibrator. Let’s take a quick look at how our buzzy friends
came to be.
A recent myth that has somehow continued to proliferate widely online
and in print is that ancient Egyptian queen Cleopatra invented the first
vibrator by filling a hollow gourd with bees and shaking it. Cleopatra had a
truly Games of Thrones-ian life of royal intrigue, with affairs, assassinations,
and sex (no dragons unfortunately), but the science doesn’t work out for the
bee gourd. Propagandist speculations about Cleopatra’s sexual appetites
seeking to discredit her rule have been widespread since the Roman civil war
that led to her death, though this particular myth seemed to appear first in the
1990s.
The real development of the first vibrators can likely be traced to the
Victorian Era and the popular medical belief in female “hysteria”. Hysteria
was thought to be a series of afflictions suffered only by women and
commonly linked to the female sexual physiology. The “disease” covered
supposed symptoms ranged across a broad spectrum of physical and mental
conditions from insomnia to anxiety to nervousness, and frequently included
“deviant” sexual behavior such as high or low sex drive. The condition of
hysteria has been presented in medical texts since the ancient Greek and
Egyptian times, and persisted in the US until the American Psychiatric
Association dropped the term in 1952 (!) Sexual intercourse was almost
always the recommended cure for hysteria, and if that didn’t work
physician’s would manually stimulate their patients to the point of orgasm.
In extreme cases, “hysteria” was treated with forced hysterectomy (removal
of the uterus). We can now look back on this condition as the struggle of
what has always been a highly patriarchal society to accept female sexuality.
The Wand This style originated with the Hitachi Magic Wand.
Originally intended as a personal massager (many girls’ first vibration
experience), it became famous in the 1970s for its powerful vibrations. Often
referred to as the “Cadillac of vibrators” and “mother of all vibrators”, the
wand has some serious juice. Many replications now exist and span from
“mini” wands to increasingly complex variations on the original, with “G-
Whiz” and anal and who knows what other attachments. The original
Hitachis and any quality replicas are like the nuclear bomb of clitoral
stimulation on high settings, and definitely will need to be worked up to over
the course of a session. Don’t spring these on anyone without warning. The
Hitachi company has since stopped selling these under the company’s name,
but still produce the updated original under a variation of “Original Magic
Wand”. Prices vary, the original Hitachi will set you back at least $50.
Excellent for getting her off.
The Vibrating Dildo Not much to discuss here. It’s a dildo that
vibrates, often very pleasing for a partner that enjoys penetrative sex and
wants to add some buzz to the mix. Realistic or otherwise, can be great if
your partner is really into vaginal penetration and can substitute for a normal
dildo in these circumstances.
Cock Rings The origins of the cock ring are dated to at least
ancient China, where men would supposedly use the eyelid of a goat around
their dicks, with the lashes still attached to tickle their lovers’ clits. Their use
continued throughout history, often made of leather or sinew, and now you
can buy silicone ones at Walmart. Cock rings are made from a wide variety
of materials, and typically are either stretchy or rigid. Beginners should start
with a non-rigid ring to see if they like it; most will never venture into the
more advanced types which are often used in male pain play and submission.
Cock rings can be excellent for a variety of reasons. To use the ring,
place it on the base of your semi-erect penis (use a couple drops of lube to
make it more comfortable). Some varieties also include a seperate ring for
around the testacles. Work your way towards an erection, either with your
partner or alone if you want to test it out first. As the penis fills with blood,
the constriction of the ring traps the blood and makes erections more firm.
This can be a nice boost of confidence as the penis will often be harder than
normal and may subsequently look bigger. Rings can also be used by those
with ED to maintain erections. Many men also attest that using cock rings
can help to delay orgasm and increase intensity, or even keep your dick hard
after cumming.
Vibrating cock rings are an excellent toy to use with a partner and are
probably the very easiest to introduce into any sexual rendezvous. It’s quite
easy to buy a cheap vibrating cock ring, which can cost under ten dollars,
and bring one into even a one night stand to increase sensation for both
partners. These usually involve a silicone gel ring with a small bullet
vibrator fixated to the top; ideal for missionary, the bullet can be adjusted as
needed for whatever position you desire. As with all sex toys cock rings vary
greatly in function, form, and price, but on the basic end they can be cheap,
highly effective, and provide an easy introduction into the wider sex toy play
that will push your partner’s orgasm count up. You should never wear a cock
ring for more than 20-30 minutes at a time.

Squirting
The world of BDSM, taboo, fetish, and role-playing extends far beyond
the scope of this book. There’s a host of resources online to explore any
sexual kink, just make sure to practice common-sense safety and
communication. As much as you should maximize your enjoyment of sex,
with kink and other “alternative” sex it’s more important than ever to make
sure your partner is on the same page.
Parting Shots
When I was getting into sex at first and seeking as much information
as I could find, I wanted a straightforward guide that offered real instructions
on how to have better sex. I hope I've provided as much here. There are
many informative articles referenced in the Notes section. The website for
this book, www.fxxkbetter.com, provides sex toy information and links to
other useful resources.
I hope you enjoyed reading this book and learned a thing or two. At the
very least, you’re now well-prepared if trivia night at the local bar involves a
question on ancient Egyptian birth control methods. Have fun out there;
remember to communicate, don’t be afraid to incorporate toys, and don’t
neglect your enjoyment just because this book focuses on hers. Thank you
for reading, please contact me at www.fxxkbetter.com with questions,
concerns, and feedback. Steady fucking, my friends.
