Sex Gets Real 98: Should a virgin just do it?

New sex for us and sex for newbies.

Dawn attended a BDSM conference for Valentine’s in Canada and tried several new things. Dylan scored a ton of presents.

We have a backlog of listener emails, too. One listener wants to give his girlfriend a vibrator but she’s inexperienced and he isn’t sure where to start.

Another listener is a virgin and wants to know, should she just have sex and get it over with? How do you even start? What’s sex like?

It’s a lot of laughter and lots of fun this week, plus some sweet texts from new listeners. We love you, too!
