Fortunately, there is no truth to the rumors that masturbation causes one to get sick, go blind, grow hair on their hands, or age very quickly.

There has been only a little research related to what some call "foot fetishes" and though it is quite clear that people have linked feet into their sex play for centuries, it is unclear what it is that drives some people to experience such intense arousal or eroticism when they see, touch or lick another person's feet.

Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Q&A: Pre-ejaculate and Pregnancy Pre-ejaculate is fluid that comes from a man's Cowper's glands, which are small glands inside a man's body, by his penis. This fluid helps to lubricate a man's urethra. There are no sperm in this fluid, so, unless there were already sperm hanging out in the urethra that were then carried out by the Cowper's glands fluids, it is usually not possible to get pregnant from contact with pre-ejaculate.

Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Q&A: Gonorrhea or Chlamydia from a Soda Cup? Chlamydia and gonorrhea are sexually transmissible infections - also called STIs - and they are only passed between people through sexual contact.

Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Q&A: Pain From Using a New Vibrator Vibrators are commonly used by women and men, and they are rarely associated with negative side effects such as discomfort, pain or injury. That said, vaginal sex, anal sex and masturbation - with or without a vibrator - can all result in negative side effects such as genital itching, burning, irritation or tearing. Mostly a person's risk of such side effects depends not only on how they are having sex, but also what their personal health status is like. Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Q&A: Strong Odor During Sex It can be difficult to talk to a sexual partner about genital odor, particularly since many women and men are sensitive about how their sexual partners perceive their bodies.

Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Q&A: Did Masturbation Change the Shape of My Genitals? Many women have questions about their size and shape of their genital parts - and quite a few women have wondered, like you, if their masturbation has played a part. There is no "standard" size of shape to women's labia and neither masturbation nor partner sex are what shape a woman's genital parts; rather, it's her genetics and health that play the biggest role. Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Q&A: What Does Sex Feel Like? Given the lack of information about sex that is available to many young women and men, many people aren't sure what to expect when it comes to sex - what to do during sex as well as what sex feels like. You're wise to begin seeking out information about sex well before you even have sex so that, by the time you do have sex, your expectations will be fair and reasonable.
