5 Things Every Woman Should Know About Sex

#1 Embrace Pillow Talk "It's hard enough to talk about sex when you're in the middle of making love. Instead, discuss positions you'd like to try, things you like, things you don't like, while you're in a relaxed setting to take any judgment out of the conversation." #2 Work for Your Orgasm "The women who are able to orgasm from sex, alone, have learned how to put just the right amount of pressure on the clitoris. It's completely normal to need added stimulation from oral sex, masturbation, or sex toys to fully orgasm." #3 He Can't Always Get It Up "After ejaculation, most men experience a period of time where they're psychically incapable of achieving an erection, no matter how much they're stimulated." #4 Some Old Wives' Tales Might Be True "While there's no solid evidence to support the myth that certain positions during and after sex will help you conceive, it does make logistical sense to choose positions that optimize the amount of time sperm spend near the cervix." #5 It Will Always Smell Down There "Every vagina has its own smell and certain things can alter that scent. Bacterial overgrowth can make it smell like fish. Working out also increases the funk, because your girly parts are full of sweat glands, just like your armpits."
