The most popular advocate of virginity is the Catholic Church. Its most obvious validation for this stand is the teaching that all young girls are the Virgin Mary's daughters. As such, and having presented Mary as the most pristine and chaste of all women, young Catholic girls are therefore forced to follow her lead throughout their lives. Of course, sex is not prohibited once the woman has entered into the sacrament of marriage. However, while married women are viewed with respect and approval, women who remain virgins all their lives are considered as consecrated. Thus, the latter still achieves a higher status in the Catholic community. Aside from using the Virgin Mary, the Catholic Church has also employed countless symbolisms in order to justify the importance of virginity. Canonizing St. Maria Goretti, who died while trying to fight off a rapist, presents such a symbolism.

While the Catholic Church in ancient times did impose cruel punishments on women who become unchaste out of wedlock, modern ideologies have already diminished such harmful practices. However, while Catholic girls may have been spared such pain and humiliation, those from other cultures have to contend with much graver consequences. One such culture is present in Hindu countries. Chastity is a crucial virtue for all Hindu women, not only before they get married, but also after the latter's termination, usually upon the husband's death. Thus, if the husband dies, the widow, who is no longer a virgin, is not suited to wed someone else. Furthermore, her existence becomes not only superfluous, but abhorrent as well. Thus, the ancient practice called Sati was performed. This custom usually prescribes that during the husband's cremation, the wife shall fling herself into the flames. In so doing, she cements her faith and honor as a wife. A modified version of such practice is called
the Jauhar or Jouhar. This custom is performed on a larger scale, likewise prescribing that the wives kill themselves, but this time, with their husband's imminent death in mind.

These heinous practices are now outlawed in India, but some fundamentalists still press for a reversion to these traditions. Nevertheless, premarital chastity is still a highly treasured virtue in Hinduism today. The same statement holds true for Islamic cultures. Muslim brides must remain chaste until the night of their wedding. According to Islamic teachings, Allah created the hymen because it serves the function of determining the validity of intercourse, in which women may engage after marriage. The hymen is present in order to make it clear to women that sexual relations outside the marriage bond are perversions of a holy act and are considered unclean. Islam prizes the body's cleanliness above most things, and should, thus, be protected and upheld.

Unlike the modern Western culture, those discussed above maintain the importance of virginity before marriage. However, the decision of whether or not virginity is important depends essentially on personal choice. After all, a woman must be free to choose, without fear or coercion, what she can or cannot do to her own body.

I was pretty surprised when my friend told me that he and his girlfriend sometimes tape themselves in bed. I asked him why they did it, and if they watched the tapes afterward. Matt (my friend's name) told me that the first time they taped themselves had been pretty spontaneous. They had a video camera that they use for other stuff. One night they were messing around when he looked up, saw the camera, and thought "Why not?". He asked his girlfriend, and she said she thought it was sort of exciting, so they set it up with a view of their bed and let it tape. He told me it feels a little like you're being watched during sex without the problems of possibly getting caught.

He and his girlfriend feel very naughty when they do this, which is part of the thrill. Also they feel very illicit after- ward that they are in control of the tape that no one else can watch.

Matt's girlfriend says that their sex is more passionate and more playful when they are taping it. She says that the feeling of having an audience is VERY exciting to her, and she finds everything they do together more stimulating. They both told me that they rarely, if ever, watch them afterward. They like the taping a lot, but aren't into watching it too much.

I asked her if they used plots or role playing when they taped, but she said usually they are too excited and would just "go for it" when they tape. She said it is almost like a sex game when they do it.

Here's a few tips I got from Matt on videotaping yourselves at home.

1- First off, always make sure EVERYBODY you're taping knows that you are taping, and that they're fine with that. Also make SURE that they're over 18 or you could end up in serious trouble.

2- Next, make sure that the camera is pointed and properly focused for the area where the action is going to take place. If your camera doesn't have auto focus or auto lighting, why not put a test object in the approximate area you're going to shoot and see how it looks. You can adjust your light and focus.

3- Now angle. If you're not sure what angle you would like to be shot at, try shooting slightly down at yourself without using the light on the camera.

4- Most video cameras can be hooked up to a TV so you can watch as you are having sex on camera. For people that like to watch themselves in mirrors, this is a really great way to see ALL of the action.

5- Another friend of ours that is also into videoing his exploits points out one more thing he feels is essential: the importance of properly labeling your tapes. You don't want your daughter or your mother in low watching your little home videos. Likewise you don't want your wife to grab your tape and carry it to show at a business proposal.

By the way, this other friend says he and his girlfriend DO watch the tapes. They are both into watching, not just being watched, and it really turns them on to watch themselves in action. He says it's great foreplay.

So if you feel like spicing up your love life, or you and your girlfriend like being watched but not being caught, this might be a fun way to add a little variety to your playtime. Just be careful what you do with the tapes – just remember Pam and Tommy!

My boobs started to develop when I was just 10 years old and by the time I was 12 they were so big that every boy in school wanted to touch them. Now they are a fine D cup and guys still want to touch them. The really strange thing about my boobs is that they actually grew in size from a C cup to the D after I moved in with my partner. There are undoubtedly some women who do not like having their boobs touched during sex but they are definitely in the minority. Most of us gals love it when a guy rolls our tits in his hands and licks, nibbles and sucks on them. Of course it depends on just how you guys do it as to whether we just like it or it absolutely blows us away. Some of my clients seem to think that girls like their boobs squeezed in a vice and rolled around like a lump of dough while others think that we like our nipples sucked so hard that it becomes painful. A while ago one of my clients sucked so hard on one of my nipples that I had a disgusting looking bruise there for a week. I was not impressed and I was certainly not aroused by that treatment. Let me tell you that most women will not find treatment like that to be arousing at all and if you want to have a good time with a girl then you must be aware of what she likes too because the best sex occurs when everyone has a great time. Even a hooker wants to have some fun with her clients so if you treat her right and take time to get her wound up you?ll have a lot more fun and when the girl is really aroused you never know what she might do with her tits.

It?s a real bonus for me when I?m fucking a guy who knows how to play with my tits and he is guaranteed to get more of my time and more of my attention than a guy who just wants to get his cock into my pussy and pound me till he cums. If the guy is prepared to take his time and make it pleasurable for me then I?m prepared to give him more time and make it even better for him.

Imagine lying on your stomach on a bed and the feeling of two heavy boobs slowly sliding from your feet up over your ass, up your back and coming to rest on the back of your head before they start to move back down your body till they have reached your feet again. Then you turn over and the massage begins again, slowly up your legs, pausing to give your hard cock a lot of attention and then up over your stomach and chest till two rock hard nipples are brushing your lips and dipping into your eyes. Then feel the shock as I sway back and forward so that my big boobs are hitting your face and almost suffocating you as they sit over your mouth demanding to be sucked and nibbled. If you can imagine that then you are seeing the sort of treatment that my regular clients get from my boobs. So far my boobs haven?t given any guy a black eye but most clients say that my boobs are so heavy it is only a matter of time before they do.

When I finally get around to full on fucking a guy I love it when he wants to choose a position that allows him to play with my boobs. A hard pounding cock deep in my pussy and gentle hands rolling and squeezing my boobs is guaranteed to have me moaning with pleasure and if the guy can manage to get his tongue onto my nipples then I?m almost certain to have a screaming orgasm once he starts to blow his load inside me.

Of course some positions are better than others when it comes to playing with a girl?s tits while fucking her at the same time. Missionary is not the best position although some guy?s can manage to do a very good job of stimulating my tits with their hands and tongue while ramming their cock into me at the same time. Doing a girl doggie lets the guy lean forward and play with her tits but it?s a bit hard to fuck and play at the same time in that position. When a guy is fucking me that way and stops to play with my tits I just have to give him a gentle hint to keep fucking me because when a cock is in me from behind I just NEED it to keep moving!

If the guy wants to be on top and still wants to play with my tits then the best position is if I put my legs up over his shoulders while he kneels in front of me. My legs support him and I can keep thrusting against his cock while he leans forward and gets my tits tingling. Of course, the all time best position is if the girl is on top and that is the position my guys seem to prefer when they want to play with my tits. They can squeeze and nibble and suck while I continue to ride up and down on their rod and I can also lean forward and slap their face with my boobs if they get a bit cheeky or stop playing with my boobs. They can also get a great display if all they want to do is watch ? big boobs bounce around when the girl is riding a hard cock.

Guys love boobs, most girls love guys who know how to play with their boobs. Damn, all that talk of sex and boobs had made me horny so I?m off to grab my partner for a matinee. Next time I?ll give you a few hints on just how to play with them.

Have you ever walked by a woman at a bar and she stuck her nose up at you? Have you ever talked to a woman and she told you that she could perform the best oral sex you ever had, only to be let down? Are you the type that when you first talk to a woman, you try to prove how big of a stud you are? Women hate that, they really do. What is worse is a man who brags but can't perform? Women don't like men who brag. They hate it because most of it is lies. You lie to them and tell them you work in a big office building, but forget to tell them you are the janitor. You tell them you have a huge penis, maybe that is because you figure that they won't actually see it.

You lie to them about how much money you have in the bank, but by the time you pay your child support you end up eating rice and beans for every meal.

Women don't want a man that lies to them. They want someone who is honest, warts and all. Well, that is a figure of speech, they don't want a man with warts. I think you get what I am saying.

One lie builds up to many lies. It isn't good to lie to a woman as soon as the relationship takes ground. It makes no sense, you can't keep up with all the lies. She will find out some day. She will find out that the car you pick her up in every Friday on your dates, is your buddies car and not yours.

It is important that in the blooming stages of a relationship that the foundation is good. I think of it like this. A mushroom needs sterile fertile ground to grow. If the ground is polluted, the mushroom won't grow. Love is a lot like that mushroom.

If you start a relationship based on lies, it will crumble down. Let me give you another example. If you build a house and the foundation isn't strong, the house will become tilted and will sink in. The same is true with a relationship.

If you feel that it is only a one night stand, lie through your teeth if you need to. Chances are she already has made up her mind before she left the house that she wanted to get laid. So, what does either of you have to loose? You both are looking for sex, as long as sex is the outcome, everyone is happy. Of course, don't lie and tell you are clean if you aren't. That is plainly wrong.

I was once in a relationship that was built on nothing but lies. We both lied to each other like crazy. I told her I was rich and she told me she was a stripper. Neither of them were true. She lied and told me that she had sex with tons of women, ended up none of that was true. She made the story up about the lesbianism to turn me on. To try to reel me in.
I told her that I had a great job and I was making tons of money. I wasn't making shit for money, I just had a nice saving built up. She told me things so that I would feel sorry for her. She would tell me that she had nothing to eat in her house, all the while she was gaining weight like crazy.

Everything went smoothly in the relationship. The sex was great. Wait, the sex was fantastic. She was so good in bed that I couldn't believe it. She rocked my world every time. It was kind of hard waking up next to a woman that I knew the whole relationship was based on lies. The thing was, the sex was so good, that I didn't care.

One day it all went to hell. It happened faster than I could think. All of her and my lies built up to a brick wall of frustration. I was out of the relationship in a matter of no time. I couldn't believe how fast it ended.

What happened was, my feelings were hurt. My whole life had been crushed. I actually was dumb enough to fall in love with this woman. I'm not sure how that happened, but maybe because the sex was so great. I don't know.

I spent years and years with a broken heart because of this. Now, I don't feel this way. I know that since everything was based on lies, that the relationship couldn't have went anywhere. But, for years I felt like shit. I really did. It ruined my life and I couldn't understand why.

If this story isn't enough to make you wash your mouth out with soap every time you lie to a woman, I don't know what will. You have to keep in mind the long term effects of your lies. She will see them eventually. She will see that you don't have all that money that you claim you have. She will see that your penis is small compared to how you boast about it. She will see that you don't have a clue in this world how the real world revolves. She will only see your lies.

This isn't a good idea. If you feel like you have to lie to get a woman, she isn't worth having. If you have to be anyone except yourself, then you need to look for a woman that you can be. All it will do is cause you problems later on in the relationship.

Think of it like this… If you have to lie, then there is a problem right off the bat. For example, if you have to lie about how much money you make. Chances are this woman is a gold digger and she is worthless. All she will do is take all of your money and run. She will run when she realizes that you don't have any money to take.

The wine is chilled, the lights are low, the music is soft. After kissing her you reach out and begin to unbutton her blouse. She reaches her hand out and strokes your chest, her lips slightly parted and her eyes dreamy. You pull her blouse off and stroke her throat, and she makes a purring sound. You're about to make the next move… the phone rings! It never fails – after setting the stage for a night of perfect passion, something will happen to ruin the sexy mood you've take such care to set up unless you take a few precautions in advance.

First off, turn off the phone ringer and turn down your answering machine. The only thing worse than having the phone ring while you're in a situation like above would be having you decide to answer the phone – a definite no-no. Having the phone ringing and ringing while you make your signature move, or hearing a voice in the room saying "Are you there? Pick up the phone" is not definitely conducive to furthering a night of passion.

It should go without saying, but don't answer the phone. Expecting your date to wait patiently while you talk about football scores or the meeting at work is one thing. Expecting her to maintain her level of sexual excitement is not going to happen without you there to keep her simmering.

This one is especially for couples. If you have children, either send them to the babysitter, leave them with a sitter and visit a nice hotel, or make sure if they're small that they are thoroughly tucked into bed and asleep. Many a parent has
suddenly heard the sound of a tiny voice saying "Daddy, how come you're kissing Mommy like that?" NOT a romantic moment.

If you like a little music to soften the mood, don't rely on a source that will some- times barrage you with commercials. You don't want to an ad for auto insurance or – worse – douche or hemorrhoid preparations – to intrude on your night of love. And make sure that your musical selection doesn't have any loud songs that might come on later during a sensitive moment. For this reason, leaving your TV off is a good idea, as well.

Clean up your apartment, or at least the parts you'll be using. Throwing your girlfriend back on the bed to make love to her and having her come face-to-face with your dirty socks may not be the best way to make her feel what you are hoping she'll feel.

Also hide or put away any porn or nude magazines. You may not find them a problem, but most women really don't like them. Your evening will go a little smoother if you just keep them out of sight.

Clean the bathroom before your date comes over. If you're married, it won't hurt you to do this, either. Women do like to use the bathroom before sex, and a yellow toilet bowl or your hair clippings all over the sink is certainly going to make staying in the mood rather difficult for her.

Never serve the following foods for a romantic pre-coital meal: beans, broccoli, onions, heavy garlic, very hot hot sauces, or anything that is difficult to digest, strong of odor or hard to eat like spaghetti. Also avoid food like turkey legs or corn on the cob that leave strings between your teeth.

Having a condom where you can get to it easily and quickly – put the wrapped condom under your pillow, or just inside a drawer where you expect to end up can keep you from having to stop at a sensitive moment and look for a condom or tear open the box. Also try not to leave the condom package out in plain site.

If you have roommates, make sure they're out for the entire evening. You don't want to find your roommate walking in just as you have removed your partner's bra and she's got her hands on your zipper. This can be embarrassing, and if your roommate is casual, he or she may even try to start a conversation!

If you drink wine or other alcoholic beverages, be sure that you don't drink too fast. Too much alcohol can not only make you less in touch with what is going on, it can also cause you to act inappropriately and can cause impotence. A pleasant glow is one thing, but try to avoid going further.

Basically, before you begin your romantic evening, make sure that you have taken care of any potential distractions, that your space is clean and pleasant, that the stage is set for a night of passion.

Believe it or not, the answer is "yes". As long as you don't mind the mess, sex during menstruation is safe. Let me rectify that: about as safe as it can be expected. Blood is a medium in which certain infectious agents multiply, so you might want to consider that before starting. Also, the chance of getting HIV is probably sky-high with all that blood around. Better use a condom if you are not sure of yourself or your partner. Still, there is no medical reason why a mutually monogamous couple (which is also free of STDs) should not have sex during menses.

But if you are not scared by these problems, then you can go right ahead. Of course you should wait for your lady to get over the worst days of her period, if you want sex to be any fun that is. The best idea is to spread a towel on the bed in order to keep the blood off the sheets, preferably a black or dark red towel. You can try any position you want, but your best bet is to stay on top and have the lady below. This should limit the flow of blood a little. The lady could also put to good use a diaphragm or a menstrual cup in order to keep the blood in, at least for a while.

The biggest risks brought by sex during menstruation are an increase in the risk of pelvic infections and HIV (because the opening of the cervix widens) and also a higher risk of pregnancy. Yep, you read that right: pregnancy. Just because your lady is having her period does not mean that you cannot get her pregnant. It's rare, I'll grant you that, but it did happen quite a few times.

Have fun and stay safe.

We have all seen or heard it before. Women are always accusing men of cheating on them. Sometimes they are right, but most of the times they are wrong. Not only are they wrong, but it gets tiresome hearing them complain that we are cheating when we really aren't. It is no surprise to you, women cheat. They do it just like men do. We would like to think that we are monogamous, but this really isn't the case. We are animals, animals with a desire to spread our genes. Women cheat for different reasons. Us men cheat because we want to pass on our genes. We want to pass along our family line.

This is common in the animal world. A woman cheats because she wants the best partner she can find. She only wants to bear the child of someone who has the best genes. This is true in the animal world and it is true in the human world.

Just because we have the ability to walk on two legs and use our thumbs to hold tools, doesn't mean that we aren't animals. We still eat meat, hell some of us still eat raw meat. We go out in nature and hunt and fish. It should be no surprise that we are still animals.

There are ways for you to tell if your woman is cheating on you. Don't make the same mistake that she makes… Don't accuse her of cheating every time she is away from you. Unless you have some hard proof, hold your breath. Here we will show you how to tell if she is cheating so you have the hard proof you need.

We all know that women tend to get more lax regarding the under clothes they wear after they have been in a long term relationship. They wear stuff that they feel is comfortable and not what she thinks will turn you on. If her closet looks like the outfits that you would see women in a nursing home have, you already know what I am talking about.

If she suddenly starts to wear sexy panties and bras, that isn't good news. Sometimes women will wear special under clothes from time to time to turn you on, but in a long term relationship that rarely happens. If she is always wearing hot panties and bras, that is a good sign she is cheating. If she wears the type of things she wore when she first met you, I would watch out.

How is your sex life? If she stops having sex with you, then you know something is up. Use common sense here. If she is having her period or not feeling well, then of course, you won't be getting any sex. But, if she has a ton of sex appeal and she isn't interested for a long period of time, that is a sign. It is a sign that she is getting her sexual needs met by someone else. If this is the case, dump her right away. This not only is wrong to you, but exposes you to diseases. She might not care about you, but you need to care about yourself.

Do you feel that your relationship is a long term one? How does she react to that? Does she blow it off, or even worse laugh? If she does, there is a good chance she is cheating. If she is cheating, she has no need for a long term relationship with you. Why would she need to? After she gets her fill of you she will dump you for the other guy.

Does she argue about anything and everything? Does she bitch at you about anything and everything? Does your breathing get on her nerves? This can be a sign that not only your relationship is about to end, but she is cheating. She will treat you like shit because she feels that way about her cheating. A woman's personality can be as thin as an onion skin.

Unless you are blind, you should be able to pick up this one. If your woman is spending more time that usual away from the house. If she is never home, she has to be some where. If there is a valid excuse, for example she has to take care of her ill mother, don't get alarmed. On the other hand, if there is no reason for her to be gone long periods of time, then something is up. If it is worth it to you, you can hire a private investigator to see what she is up to. Also, a friend might do this for some beer money. Try to get photos of her with her other lover. This way when she says that she isn't cheating, you can throw the pictures right into her face.

If you suspect your girlfriend is cheating on you, sniff her clothes. If you smell a cologne that isn't like yours or an unfamiliar scent, something could be up. Make sure she hasn't been hugging her father or something like that. Take a whiff, if it smells like a man and there is no reason why should be smelling that way, she could be cheating.

Men and women both cheat. That maybe a surprise to some, but not to most of us. No man should put up with this kind of behavior. You need to dump your cheating woman as fast as you can. Don't ever take a woman back who has cheated on you. She will do it again and again. Stand up for yourself, you are the only one that will do it.

First there is the domination. We all have seen those WWII clips of them men coming back from battle and kissing their wives. This is a kiss with some power behind it. It can say many things.

A kiss like this will knock her off of her feet. Maybe you might use this kiss if you haven't seen her for awhile. You might use this kiss if you are very horny and can't contain yourself any more. We all have had those strong moments where we feel like we have to kiss someone. We need an outlet for all the sexual frustration that we are feeling. The great thing about a kiss is, it is easy and fast too do. You can get your sexual frustration out without having to take off your clothes. The element of surprise is what makes a woman the wettest. This isn't a kissing technique per se, but you will get the drift.

While you are kissing her, roam her body with your hands. Explore every area that you can. This will make her go crazy before you can even begin to think about what your next move is. I can't tell you enough how important this is. Before you give your woman a kiss, make sure your breath smells okay. Don't go kissing her if you just ate a tuna on rye sandwich. If you are in doubt, go brush your teeth. You don't like it when she has shit stuck in her teeth that fall into your mouth.

Lets talk more about kissing and not the do's and don'ts. The explore kiss. This is where you spend some time getting to know her mouth. This is a fun one from time to time. It shows that you are interested in her. You are learning new ways to excite her. This can be good for both of you. Good for you because you will learn new things that turn her on. Great for her because she will think all this time you are spending on her is great.

The peck before bed. You know you aren't getting laid when you get that little peck before she rolls over in her flannel night gown. It doesn't have to be such a little innocent kiss. Instead, look into her eyes when she gives you that little peck. Run your fingers through her hair and tell her that you love her. This will give her sweet dreams all night long.

Just like the peck before bed, turn that peck before you leave for work into something special. Tell her that you will be thinking about her all day long while at work. Look her in the eyes and smile when you say it. This will keep her waiting for when you get home. You can also use kisses to see where she is at sexually. If you are turned on but you are not sure if she is, kiss her and find out. Give her a long slow kiss, if she comes back wanting more, than you know you are going to score in the sack. If on the other hand after you are done she is talking about he bills you owe that month, you aren't getting laid tonight.

You may not know it, but a kiss holds a lot of power to a woman. With the right kiss you can make her go from undecided to a horny vixen when it comes to sex. If you aren't sure that you will get laid, a kiss is a good way to test the waters. A kiss can also be a way to show affection. If you just want to show that you love her and are thinking about her, a great way to show it is a little peck. This will make her feel warm and fuzzy inside and know that you care.

Kissing shows interest. It maybe sexual or just love, but it does it all the same. Your woman will respond to this the same way time and time again. She will be happy to feel your lips on hers. Don't forget, you can never get too many kisses in your lifetime.

A bigger penis can help you to reach the "g-spot" which can give women bigger and better orgasms. She may also experience multiple orgasms as well. You can read up on how I enlarged my penis by reading, my penis enlargement story.

Exactly how many different kinds of condoms are out there? Are there in fact any significant differences at all? Basically, all condoms would fall under 8 categories in general, based on the primary consideration. These do not include the ones that would be invented tomorrow (knowing the ingenuity of today's generation, they will come up with something). The first is the material; it is either made from polyurethane or latex. Second is the size that involves the width and not the length. However, those available in convenience shops are standard-sized. Third is the kind of lubrication where different substances are used for different brands of condoms. Fourth is the spermicidal. Spermicidal lubricant is sometimes used to lessen the probability of pregnancy.

One of the more common is called nonoxynol-9. Some individuals are sensitive to this and in fact, if used a lot of times, may heighten HIV-infection possibility. Fifth is the Ribbed. There are many people out there, espe cially young people, who utter in disgust "if AIDS is not so prevalent, I would never use this.I cannot feel a thing." This type is the heaven-sent condom for them. It has ridges making sex more "feel-able" for the couple. Next is color, enough said, it's self-explanatory. Seventh would be flavor, obviously, this is for those daring individuals who have a propensity for oral sex. Tastes can range from strawberry to god knows what else! However, these condoms should not be used for vaginal/anal sex. Eighth and the last, is the reservoir tipped. Most condoms in fact have a reservoir-like end to hold the semen as opposed to the few others which have plain tips. For the reservoir type, make sure that you pinch the tip before dressing it on. This is more or less mandatory because if air gets in, it could easily break when you are busy and that is what you wouldn't like to happen. Actually, there is another one, but since our topic is men's condoms, a simple mention of it would suffice. This is the female condom (If you are a guy reading t!
his and you are the kind who is so averse to putting on condoms, this should give you an idea, right?)

Now that we are through enumerating them, let us go to the more important part which is to answer the question "what are the qualities of a good condom?" In terms of material, latex is probably the best; avoid the naturally made ones (lamb membrane for example). Some unenlightened souls claim that a few viruses can go thru latex that is absolutely untrue. Those made from natural materials are porous and so there is a probability of virus-transmission. Another would be the presence of lubricants. Picking the water-based ones is best like those that are pre-lubricated with spermicidal gel or foam. Petroleum, baby oil or cream used as lubricant is risky. These types have the tendency to weaken condoms, even latex. Packaging is also an invitation. (Not only vis-?-vis colors although to some people, color is paramount, they are probably the reason why the glow-in-the dark type was born.)

More specifically, what do women want in a condom? Some condoms are packaged to look like tampon containers and a few women are attracted to this. Form also counts – to illustrate, French ticklers (condoms having long appendages) have popular appeal as these (just like the ridges) increase pleasure during intercourse. For this same purpose, some women would insist that their husbands/boyfriends buy the ultra thin type. Of course, not all nationalities are alike. Japanese women in fact, are insistent on using condoms over pills but they are not particular over the kind or form of condom to be used. For as long as she gets assured that it would not break, she probably would not actually care on what specific kind of condom is being used. If you are an American though, a piece of advice: bring your own, the size being manufactured in there might not be to your liking.

Lastly, the most interesting though, according to one expert on the topic (she came out with a hilarious yet enlightening piece) – women generally, do not care about the ridges, ribbing or the lubrication. The problem she claims is that condoms are designed by men. She asserts that if women were to be the ones to do this designing, they would just make "padded" condoms. Length may not really be crucial, but according to her, width does and that is where the padding comes in naturally.

When to plant that first kiss? Most of us men only care about when we will get some action for the first time, let alone a measly kiss. This is where we make too many mistakes with women. If you aren't out to get a quick piece of ass, take it slow. You should be able to tell if you are going to get laid quickly. If she has screwed more than two of your friends, you know you will get her in the bag quickly. Often times though it isn't that easy. We want to rush things. If the girl is sweet and she takes over your heart, then there is no reason to make things move to fast. Instead, enjoy her company.

The mistake most men make is that they think they should get a kiss on the first date. In my experience this isn't true. I think that if we rush it too fast, we will end up scaring her away.

Think of it like you are in the woods hunting a deer. If you go in too fast, you will make too much noise and you will scare it away. If you do that, you will end up with no delicious deer meat to fill your stomach.

Instead you go in slow. You walk slowly so you don't make too much noise. You scan the landscape to make sure there is no deer in the area before moving on. If you see that there is no deer, then you slowly creep up to your next waiting spot. You know if you do this, you will eventually get that deer. When you get that deer it will be the most joyful feeling you ever had. You will eat the meat for days to come and enjoy it like it was your first bite.

Your first kiss should be the same way. You should be just like you would be if you were waiting for the deer. Don't push it too fast, or you will scare it away.

What is the hurry? If you hurry too fast you will scare her away. Would you run up behind the deer in the woods? No! You would creep up to it and be patient. You know if you are patient, you will get your kill.

You have to understand her way of thinking. Without understanding how a woman a woman thinks, you will end up putting yourself in a bad situation. Ever wonder why you aren't getting laid? Here is one of the reasons.

Unless she is a crazed slut, she has to be careful. In this day and age of rape and violence towards women, she has no choice. It could save her life. A woman today has a real reason to be afraid. You can pick up any newspaper and almost every time read about some violent act that has taken place on a woman.

She is smart, she is protecting her safety. We are taught from a child to stay away from strangers. Unless your date is your sister, then chances are she doesn't know much about you. If you are going on a date with your sister, I'm afraid I can't help you out. You need professional help.
