Living in Sin: Not A Sprint, A Marathon

Congress has cut federal funding for public media — a $3.4 million loss for LAist. We count on readers like you to protect our nonprofit newsroom. Become a monthly member and sustain local journalism.

Jen Sincero is a musician, sexpert, and the author of the bestselling book, The Straight Girl’s Guide To Sleeping With Chicks and the semi-autobiographical novel, Don’t Sleep With Your Drummer. She currently hosts a weekly sex talk radio show called Dr. Happypants on killradio.org.

Living in Sin is her weekly advice column for LA's sexually curious, confused and constipated. Got a question for Jen? Ask her. We promise to be discreet (all questions will be posted anonymously).

Dear Jen,
I’m a 26 year old guy who feels like every time the race is just getting started, I’m already at the finish line. I was curious if you had any suggestions on how to get my girlfriend off quickly.

It appears you have confused a hot, sensual experience with a track meet. Not only is the female O a notorious slowpoke, but your "let's get this over with already" attitude is a long way from sexy, and will no doubt make her lose her clitoral boner altogether.

I suggest you instead focus on slowing your roll. Work up to the big bang with plenty of foreplay. Make the fist ten minutes all about her. Put on a condom to cut down on the sensation until you can get things under control. Practice holding off your orgasm while you masturbate. Think about your grandma's feet while you're doing the deed.

If you work at it you can absolutely improve your stamina, and once you do, you'll be able to enjoy the journey instead of worrying about the end result, which will be way more enjoyable for both of you. Regardless of who finishes first.

Got a question for Jen? Ask her.

As Editor-in-Chief of our newsroom, I’m extremely proud of the work our top-notch journalists are doing here at LAist. We’re doing more hard-hitting watchdog journalism than ever before — powerful reporting on the economy, elections, climate and the homelessness crisis that is making a difference in your lives. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to maintain a paywall-free, independent news source that informs, inspires, and engages everyone.

Simply put, we cannot do this essential work without your help. Federal funding for public media has been clawed back by Congress and that means LAist has lost $3.4 million in federal funding over the next two years. So we’re asking for your help. LAist has been there for you and we’re asking you to be here for us.

We rely on donations from readers like you to stay independent, which keeps our nonprofit newsroom strong and accountable to you.

No matter where you stand on the political spectrum, press freedom is at the core of keeping our nation free and fair. And as the landscape of free press changes, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust, but the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news from our community.

Please take action today to support your trusted source for local news with a donation that makes sense for your budget.

Thank you for your generous support and believing in independent news.
