I Hate Sex :(

I think men do not understand that many women do not care about sex. "Thanks" to the media, men are sexually over-stimulated 24/7 by ever-present images of porn stars and models PAID to appear naked and horny. I believe this is where men get the idea that women love sex as much as men do, and do not understand that majority of the female population have sex just to please their men and keep the relationship going.

To me, sex is just a toll I have to pay for a relationship with a man. You may ask why do I want to be in a relationship with a man? Because I need human closeness and affection. The fact that I have been with men who cheated on me, urged me to sleep with them, threatened only after a couple of dates to find a sexual partner to supplement my sexual inaction makes everything even harder.

But the most important thing that makes me hate sex is the fact that I do not find it pleasurable, I don't feel good while having sex, I almost start crying during intercourse. I've been to the doctor and told him my problem and he told me that physically there is no problem with me and he does not know why I feel pain during intercourse. I think it may be because of the fact that my boyfriend's penis is too big? I do not know why, but if that is the problem I have nothing to do about it because I cannot blame my boyfriend because his penis is too big. He does absolutely nothing wrong, I get enough foreplay and I do get aroused but when he starts penetrating me it just hurts too much, and the pain does not dissappear during sex. Could you please give me some advice? I would be very grateful.

Dear N,

My first though was to suggest you get a pet for companionship and stop having sex with men, especially ones with big penises. However, you would still want to consider enjoying your own orgasms with yourself. I do agree with you re:porn representing women as always horny and ready to fuck. Not at all true! You're right about the money. Getting paid to do a job always encourages anyone to perform. Notice that wives do not get paid to do housework or raise kids. Yet both are central to society.

If you're orgasmic and aroused and are using extra lubrication and he's doing slow penetration and the doctor says there is nothing wrong with you physically, then it's psychological. Or is it? Go online and research vuladynia. A strange wiring of a woman's genitals that causes pain with nothing apparently wrong. It's not well understood yet if at all. If that's the case often a doctor will recommend using a numbing cream for intercourse. Or perhaps you have a chronically tight PC muscle that you could learn to relax by squatting as women did more of in the past. For that information go to the website katy@katysays.com She has all kinds of info dealing with the mechanics of the body.

Other than that, consider what I suggested at the beginning of my answer. I'd like to know how you end up solving this problem. Happy researching.

Like music there are many kinds of sex and romance

I don't think  it's that women don't want sex, it's that their desire is misrepresented in media. In fact it's ridiculed and devalued. Romantic novels are rediculed yet romance and sex together describe life. I think you need some romance 1st and true love, and someone who cares about you who'll stop penetrative sex until he's helped you through this.

It does sound like your sex partners are part of the problem, but don't feel like you need a new one,or to include your current one, in any new sexual adventure. It sounds like you could get more out if sex straight away. Penetration is painful for you so leave it right out of your sex with yourself. There's so much fun to be had without it :)

I have trouble understanding that some woman don't want sex all the time! It feels so good. Even if I got pain from penetration I just imagine I would touch my clit all day long.
If penetration hurts WHY ON EARTH are you allowing it!?
STOP LETTING ANOTHER PERSON USE YOU AT YOUR EXPENSE

PLEASE!!

Love yourself first and foremost!

Don't do something you hate

I'm a woman and I love sex, being penetrated by my husband is better than any sex toy because I have the rest of him next to me. That being said, some days penetration hurts or I'm not feeling it. We'll do something else. Giving mutual handjobs are fun. I really like giving my husband hand jobs sometimes. The point of this is to simply say, experiment on other things. Don't do something that hurts when there are so many other fun things to do.

Vulvodynia

Sounds like you may have Vulvodynia. I had this condition for years, where penetration was always painful for me to the point where sex was not an option. Finally, I found out my condition was due to tight PC muscles. What really helped me was doing biofeedback and muscle release work. This involves the use of dilators and PC muscle exercises to release the tension. Treatment usually takes months, but the pain slowly eases as you continue with the exercises. Sex for me now is mostly pleasurable, it only occasionally hurts when there is not enough lubrication. Good luck!

Vaginismus

Another word is vaginismus, which is an involantary tightness of the vagina. Vaginismus  may be one cause of vulvodynia I think. But I believe masters and johnson were doing work on it and were recommending dilators etc.

I feel the pain of convolution with that article.  It does't make sense.
