Another struggling student... looking for women's opinions on sex and relationships...

Hi!

My name's Lisa and I'm a student at Bristol uni and I'm doing my dissertation on women's experiences and opinions on sex and also the differences between older and younger women's experiences.

If anyone is interested below are some scenarios taken from problem pages. I'm interested in what other women think these women should do, why they think they're feeling worried about the problem, and if you've ever had that problem yourself and how you dealt with it.

I'd be really grateful for any help with this and I'm really interested in your opinions so if you want to join in the research just post a response or message me (if you could add your age that would help too) : )

Problem page scenarios ...

Dear Karen,



My new boyfriend wants me to dish the dirt on my past sex life. I dont believe in keeping secrets, but Ive slept with more people than him so Im worried what hell think. Should I tell him?



Dear Karen,



Ive been with my boyfriend for many years and we are devoted to one another, The problem I have is that even though I have a high sex drive, I find it really difficult to climax and have regularly faked it in the past. Should I tell him?



Dear Jenny,



When he touches me during foreplay he does this thing with his thumb that I really dont like. I pretended to like it at first, so now hes doing it even more. What should I do?



Dear Karen,



My boyfriend hates the feel of condoms and wants me to go on the pill. Ive been on the pill before; the only problem is that he has had lots of other girlfriends before me. Can I ask him to get tested for STDs without offending him?



Dear Anna,



I want to have sex with my boyfriend but Im scared that hell think I look horrible naked because Im a size 6 and I have really small boobs. What should I do?



Dear Anna,



I havent had a partner for a long time but have recently been dating a new man. We have a good time and I really like him but Im worried that when it comes to sex hell think Im boring. When I talk to my girlfriends it sounds like theyre all more adventurous than me. What should I do?
