Sex with Aunt Flow
It's Sex Saturday! That means April Smear is going to post a rant or question about all things sex. Let’s create a dialogue and attempt to understand the sexual underbelly of Los Angeles!
I would say that I like sex a lot, or at least more than the average person. If I could do it all the time, I would. Heck, I used to make my ex-boyfriends have sex with me at least 3-4 times a day if my schedule allowed it. Various things make me especially horny, like a sex scene in a movie, certain music, or too many drinks.
But what makes me want to have sex more than anything is being on period.
After the first few days, when the bloating and cramps subside, all I want to do is fuck. Except having sex while on your rag isn’t really conducive to multiple sex positions, a clean body or bed. In fact, I feel that the only safe position a girl is able to have sex in is Missionary, and whoever is really happy with that? Missionary can’t really get me off unless the guy I’m having sex with has a big penis and those are few and far between.
One time while on my rag, I wanted to do it doggy style so bad I just said ‘fuck it’. I told my boyfriend to put a towel down on the bed and assume position. And damn, the sex felt incredibly good, cause you know, your va jay jay is more sensitive and stuff. Both of us were so super into it that we forgot about the blood coming out of my vagina. When we finished, my boyfriend and I looked down to look as the mess, and a mess there was. Blood had streamed down both of our legs and onto the towel beneath us.
I was mortified, but more than anything embarrassed. I could tell my boyfriend was grossed out, but he told me that it was okay, kissed me on my head and helped clean up. A couple of hours later he wanted to do it again, and I was more than happy to fulfill his request. This time, in order to eliminate a bloody muck, we had sex in the Spoon position. However, he couldn’t do the usual reach around clitoral play that makes Spooning so great. Once again, foiled by my period!
But a woman’s menstrual cycle isn’t a wall. It’s just an obstacle that needs to be overcome. While a woman is on her period, she can still get off and not create a mess. For instance, a woman can leave a tampon in, and her partner can orally or manually stimulate just her clitoris. While we were dating, Brandon Walsh ate me out while I wore a tampon and he didn’t mind. However, that’s not the majority of men as it takes a special man to be able to do something like that. In this case, Brandon would have done anything to get me off and not have to produce a hard on. Either way, I was able to get mine.
Truth be told, when I’m on my period, I can no longer go past making out. There’s just too much…..to worry about and if I can’t have sex the way I want it, then I don’t want it at all.
That isn’t to say if I found a non-messy alternative that I wouldn’t do it.
So LAisters, how do you handle this problem?
