FeedLet's Talk About Sex
Let’s talk about sex, baby.
Or, about how women don’t seem to be talking about it—at least not to our friends at The Center for Sexual Health Promotion at Indiana University. The researchers have been collecting data for the largest contemporary examination of how women have sex with women but numbers have been dragging. They have conducted similar surveys with heterosexual groups and gay men, whose community response numbers have been 30,000 and 23,000, respectively. The lesbians? Lagging behind at 1,300 globally. Ladies, we can do better than that.
The researchers are a passionate team looking to really understand how women relate to one another sexually. The information learned from the study will be used by sexual educators to promote pleasure, as well as by medical professionals looking to help women identify ways to protect themselves from risks. All this info will hopefully lead to safer and happier sex for our community.
As the Indiana researchers have pointed out, current knowledge of sexual pleasure and risk between women is largely based on either heterosexual models of sex or on information gathered from relatively small groups of women. Let’s change that.
To participate and learn more about the survey click at womenshealth.iu.edu. The survey takes 20 minutes, it’s anonymous, and in the end you get a coupon for 20 percent off a purchase at earlytobed.com.
Win, win.

hi
hello from South Africa
I am happily married to my girl. We are 50 and 62 years old - we are both professional academics - I feel our love transcends mere physical closeness - together we are so much more and apart so much less - without her I could not manage my life
my partner and i have been togather for 15 yrs sex is so easy for us we still havea lot of passion for each other and any adult should already pretty much know the mechanics of the act. we have our ups and downs like any couple but we put a lot ot effort in keeping things spicy and fun sometimes just some nice music and dancing in our living room or the patio or walk around the park and snuggle..hold hands and when we need to we give each other the space they need alone or spending time with a friend or friends we haven't seen in a while and suprises nice ones though and we are both 52

I'm 24 and my previous relationship was with a 45 year women, educated, strong and outgoing.
We always kept it new, both have to be willing to please and explore, except not limits and love share in the love with one another.

My partner and I have been together nearly 11 years. Sex is amazing with her. When we make love it is satisfying to me, until the next time. It just has not gotten boring for me. She is my soul mate and if I never had a chance to make love with her again, I had the best there is. Quality not frequency works for us. It is all about communication, trust, love and honesty.
