Entering the vagina for the first time can be a significant and intimate experience.
1. Preparation:
Consent and Communication: Ensure that both partners are fully comfortable and have consented. Discuss any concerns or preferences beforehand.
Relaxation: Both partners should be relaxed. Being tense can make the experience uncomfortable.
2. Foreplay:
Build Excitement: Engage in foreplay to help both partners feel aroused and relaxed. This can include kissing, touching, and oral sex.
Lubrication: Use a waterbased lubricant to reduce friction and enhance comfort. Natural lubrication might be sufficient, but extra lubricant can help.
3. Positioning:
Comfortable Position: Choose a position that is comfortable for both partners. Common positions for firsttime penetration include missionary (with the receiving partner lying on their back) or a position where the receiving partner is on top.
Gentle Entry: For the partner inserting, start with gentle and slow movements. Apply light pressure and be patient.
4. Penetration:
Slow and Gentle: Gently guide the penis or toy into the vagina. Go slowly and listen to your partner’s feedback.
Adjust as Needed: If there’s discomfort or resistance, pause and communicate. Adjust the angle or amount of lubrication if necessary.
