Hi,

I want to know about the safest sexual practices I can use, besides abstention. I am lesbian, single and want to insure I'm not bringing anything home I don't want. Are gloves and dental dams the only option, besides getting everyone tested? Sucking on a dental dam is about a wonderful as sucking on a balloon and if guys think rubbers suck. They should try to use a dental dam.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
E

Dear E,

When it comes to lesbian sex I personally don't believe we need to wear gloves or necessarily use dental dams. If your partner hasn't been tested and you have any doubts, non-microwaveable plastic wrap is better than a rubber dam. But in that case, I'd prefer to enjoy manual sex instead. Frankly if we had to rely on dental dams it would be the end of oralsex altogether.
