10 Things Everyone Gets Wrong About Girl-on-Girl Sex

1. Yes, you need a condom. Are you going to get pregnant from putting your mouth on her vag? No, but that doesn’t mean you can’t catch STDs from getting and giving oral sex. Seriously, more people need to know this fact. And also how to use dental dams. They seem tricky but are very simple.

2. No, it’s not just oral sex and fingering. This idea that all lesbians do is cutely fondle each other while listening to Sarah McLachlan and taking breaks to read Adrienne Rich poems is bullshit garbage. Plenty of lesbians like strap-on penetration or oral sex or S&M or, you know, anything else that anyone else with bodies likes.

3. No, you’re not straight just because you want to use a dildo. Penetration feels good to lots of people. Just because you’re mimicking a penis doesn’t mean you secretly wish it were a penis.

4. No, one person isn’t “the man” and one person isn’t “the woman.” Do straight people have one person who’s always on top and one person who is always on the bottom and then the woman always wears an apron and makes post-sex apricot muffins? Well, neither do lesbians.

5. No, not every single lesbian loves oral sex. I’m not going to lie, I’ve never met one who was like, “Are you kidding? Get that away from me, I am repulsed.” But I have not met every lesbian on the planet (yet). There are bound to be plenty of lesbians who just don’t prefer it or never do that at all, for whatever reason. No matter, there are so many other sex things to do! Continue reading here.
