sex FAQ

Here is a set of some of the most common sex FAQs which haunt people irrespective of age or experience:

1. What does it take to make a good lover?

A good lover is not born but can be made. One of the prime requisites is a sexual partner with who you have the right mental or physical compatibility. You need time and practice to perfect your skills to become a good lover. An attitude to try new poses, timings and locations are also required to make you a memorable lover.

2. What is meant by ‘good sex’?

Sexual acts do not follow any set rules or patterns. Happy couples find their own niche for sexual enjoyment whether it is a particular posture which they enjoy, a particular venue or a particular stimulation they prefer. Since mind has a lot to do with sexual pleasure, good sex can only be possible in a relaxed environment, in a calm mind without any worry of unwanted pregnancy of STD as an after effect of sex.

3. What is the best way to prevent STDs?

While there is no chance of being infected with STDs if you are having sex with only one person who is known to you, the best way to prevent STDs is to wear condoms for whichever type of sexual activity (anal, oral, vaginal) that you may be indulging in.

4. Is there anything called the ‘best time for sex’?

There is nothing called the ideal time for sex. Sex should happen at the time when both the people concerned are in the mood for it. That is the time when enjoyment can be at its peak. Be it at the crack of dawn, in the afternoon or before going to bed at night, both the partners must feel adequately motivated to have sex. You must keep a lot of time in hand, which includes foreplay, arousal time, post-coital relaxation time, etc. Each of these acts is part of the total sexual intercourse and you must devote adequate time for each of these activities. For instance, immediately after the sexual act, it would be better if you lay in each other’s arms trying to re-live every moment of the sexual act. This way, your relationship also gets to be more intimate and your sex life will also be more meaningful.

5. How about eating and drinking before sex?

Again it is a matter of individual choice. While some people enjoy sex on an empty stomach, some prefer it after a light meal. But since the sexual act involves spending some amount of physical energy, having a full stomach may be slightly inconvenient for both the people. Drinking on the other hand should always be moderate. Follow the saying: drinking arouses desire but kills performance. Some foods like oysters, crabs, etc are known aphrodisiacs – foods which instill a sexual desire. There are many aphrodisiacs available in the market.
