Practicing safe sex is important – this might seem like an obvious statement but while many people agree that they should be practicing safe sex, many simply don’t and others aren’t too sure on what safe sex consists of and how to do it right. Sex should be a happy and fun experience that you enjoy and get excited about, it is one of the major joys of a relationship. And remember that it is always important to keeps things fresh and interesting in the bedroom, as well as practicing the safe principles you need to ensure that you can be healthy as you get older.

 

It’s a good idea to have a good knowledge of the different types of sex that are available and know the safe ways to practice them. You can then talk to your partner about these forms of sex and see if they are interested in trying something new. This can save many potentially embarrassing situations from occurring. It is best that you both feel comfortable with trying new things out and ultimately knowing that your partner is happy with what you are doing and enjoying it too puts you in a very good position and can be a turn-on of its own.

 

So here is our guide to the different types of sex and the best ways to perform it safely. If it is something you are interesting in bringing into your bedroom then this will be very helpful for you as it contains both the best ways to enjoy these forms of sex and gives you all of the knowledge you will need when you talk to your partner about it.

 

The first type of sex we are going to discuss is anal sex. Anal sex is considered to be a high risk sexual activity for a number of reasons. During anal sex it is much easier for bacteria and viruses to enter the system than other types of sex. This is especially true if you are the receiving partner of anal sex. The inside of the anus is very thin and that means that it is very easy for any viruses or infections to pass through it and get directly into the bloodstream. All sorts of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) can be present both in semen and on the inside of the anus, so protecting yourself is completely vital. Remember that you should always use a condom and that you should change condoms when switching between vaginal, anal and oral sex.

 

Another type of sex to look at is group sex. Group sex involves three or more people having sexual intercourse together and it comes with a huge number of other risks and potential problems. You should be sure to limit the group sizes to as small as possible to ensure that the risks are minimised. But even still it is key to remember that this is risky business, both physically and emotionally. Talk through ground rules and ensure that everything who is having sex knows what the limits are.

 

Finally let’s look at oral sex, which brings in a number of complications of its own. Oral sex is one of the most common kinds of sex that is performed unprotected. This is due to the fact that there is no risk of pregnancy. Nevertheless, performing unprotected oral sex puts you at a much greater risk of infections and viruses. Be sure to use a condom or dental dam if you are going to have oral sex as this ensures you are protected from STIs.

Sexpert Knowledge: Weird Facts You Never Knew about Sex

Where would we be without sex? Well, the short answer is we wouldn’t be here at all, but aside from providing us with the beginning of our existence, sex is extremely beneficial to your wellbeing if only because it’s the focus of some weird and wonderful facts. Let’s take a look at some of the coolest things you never knew about sex and sexual health.

1. The basics: Ok, you probably know the basics of sex, but here’s how the numbers stack up. If you’re a woman, you only – as you’re likely already aware – release one egg a month. If you’re a man, on the other hand, your production is much more prolific. In just one ejaculation, you emit anywhere between 30 million and 750 million sperm.

2. Getting piggy with it: However many sperm men expel in a single ejaculation, you fellers have nothing on pigs – a single swine ejaculate contains about 8 billion sperm cells.

3. Mission impossible: With so many pregnancies being unintended or “happy accidents,” the stats surrounding the sheer possibility of conception are mind-boggling. In order to get a single sperm to a ready egg, it has to arrive in the small three to six-day window in which women are fertile. The sperm rarely remain viable for more than two days or so, but they can hang around in the reproductive tract for up to five days.

4. It’s getting hot in here: When you’re ovulating, this process heats up your body by as much as half a degree Fahrenheit. Before ovulation, your body temperature lands between 96 and 98 degrees F (35.5 to 36.6 degrees Celsius), but right after ovulation, your body temperature rises to an average of 97 to 99 degrees F (36.1 to 37.2 degrees C). This is why many women who try to conceive, or try to avoid conceiving, take their temperature every day to detect ovulation.

5. Animals in the bedroom: Aside from being frowned upon, bestiality has been found to be detrimental to your wellness. In 2011, a study found that having sex with animals – be they chickens, pigs or horses – might raise men’s risk of penile cancer. This is possibly because these acts cause microtrauma to the penis and lets foreign microorganisms in. This includes the human papilloma virus (HPV) which can cause cancer in humans.

6. It’s a bit nippy: Nipples are proven erogenous zones, and it seems like the big man upstairs knew what he was doing. Brain-imaging research on women has shown that the same area of your brain that registers nipple stimulation also registers stimulation from your vagina, cervix and clitoris.

7. Let’s talk about sex, baby: While you may be worried that sex education encourages children to go out and give sex a try, in fact the opposite is true. A 2012 study published by the non-profit Guttmacher Institute found that any sex education at all delays teen sex.

8. The more the merrier: However, before you pat yourself on the back for teaching your teenager the birds and the bees, delaying sex doesn’t stop adolescents experimenting in more than pairs. Yep, a 2011 study found that one in 13 (7.3%) teen girls aged 14 to 20, have had a group-sex experience. The study, which was published in the Journal of Urban Health: Bulletin of the New York Academy of Medicine, also found that these girls were also more likely to have been exposed to pornography and childhood sexual abuse than their peers. More than half of that group reported being pressured into the multiple-sex-partner situation and, perhaps most worryingly of all, 45% indicated no condom was used during their most recent group-sex encounter.
