Some instructions from eHow.Com

Instructions

See a psychologist about your masturbation addiction. While masturbation is a physical act, the reasons which cause masturbation to become a serious and life changing obsession are mental and emotional. A psychologist can help you get to the root of the real reasons you are facing a problem, which in turn can help you to treat your addiction.

Step 1:
Step 2:

Consider hypnotherapy, or ask your psychologist about treatment with hypnosis. Because masturbation addiction and the mental and emotional processes which cause it can be deeply rooted and cause shame, embarrassment and other difficult feelings, hypnosis can help you to open up more quickly and face the reasons which have caused the problem.

Step 3:

Join a support group for those with sexual addiction, including masturbation addiction. Often joining a group of other people like you where you can comfortably discuss your addiction without the feeling of being judged or shamed, can help to get you through the more difficult moments and will greatly aid other forms of treatment.

Step 4:
Find ways to occupy your mind and body as a means of distraction when you are tempted to masturbate. Joining a gym or sport’s team, taking up a hobby which occupies the hands, such as drawing, playing an instrument or painting, or other activities which hold your interest and can take your mind off your impulses are temporarily fixes but can help to ease treatment.

The Better Sex Guide for Women

The Best Sex Ever

Sweaty bodies, tangled sheets, moaning… it sounds like TV porn, but it could be real, not reel, life. Read on for the top 20 tips for having the best sex ever. Already having stupendous sex? There’s always room for improvement.

1. You’re entitled to fabulous sex

So what if you haven’t lost your baby weight, certain body parts are drooping or you’ve got a pimple the size of a volcano. It doesn’t matter.

“When you’re in bed and making love, your partner’s not worried about any little imperfections a woman might have,” says Hilda Hutcherson, M.D., author of Pleasure: A Woman’s Guide to Getting the Sex You Want, Need and Deserve (Putnam).

Besides, his body probably isn’t perfect either. Does a guy ever let a large belly or back hair get in the way of a good time? Follow his lead.

2. It doesn’t add up

Women have an average of four sex partners in their lifetime, says the National Center for Health Statistics. Which means many women have field-tested more than four guys.

Whatever your number, you’re neither a slut nor a prude. As long as you feel good about yourself, pack protection and avoid embarrassing YouTube videos, who cares how many notches are on your lipstick case?

3. Make a date

Scheduling sex might sound too, er, anal to be fun, but sometimes planning is in order. You make time to work out and do errands – why not for sex?

“This is important, so you have to make room for it and push it forward,” Hutcherson says.

Reconnecting with your partner as a lover – not roommates or parents – is a reminder of why you were attracted to him in the first place.

And once you’ve made a sex appointment, the anticipation can be almost as titillating as the event. Kick it up a notch by trading racy texts or leaving a sultry voicemail on his cell.

4. Normal? Forget about it!

Do furries float your boat? That doesn’t make you weird or freaky. Studies and surveys show that American women have sex in lots of ways:

* 17% have tried bondage.

* 20% have used a blindfold.

* 30% have had anal sex.

* 62% masturbate (usually three to four times a week).

* 40% use vibrators.

* 14% look at online porn.

* 70% need clitoral stimulation to slide into home plate.

* 18% opt for oral sex.

Your quirks aren’t so strange, so quit worrying and enjoy!

5. Porn positions are for the pros

Unless Jenna Jameson is your alter ego, your guy doesn’t expect you to do that reverse cowgirl with a half-gainer.

“There are a lot of ridiculous standards out there about how women should be or look or act,” says Michele Sugg, a certified sex therapist in Branford, Conn. “Let all that go. Reality is, men are turned on by you.”
Your partner will be aroused by seeing you turned on.

6. Get a lube job

The right lube can turn so-so sex great. There are lots of lubes – water- or silicone-based – so experiment to see what works.

As a general rule, avoid anything that warms, cools or tastes like a fruit roll-up – they can irritate the skin, says Ellen Barnard, sex educator/counselor and co-owner of A Woman’s Touch (a-womans-touch.com) in Madison, Wisc.

7. Get squeaky clean

Use mouthwash and baby wipes. Like Tupperware for the bedroom, it keeps everything fresh.

8. Get fishy

Fish oil reduces inflammation, blood pressure and dangerous LDL cholesterol. But guess what? It also opens up those teeny blood vessels down there.

Plus, fish oils boost the testosterone in your body (yes, women have this hormone too), so “you notice your arousal more quickly,” Barnard says.

You can get a hefty dose of fish oil by eating salmon, mackerel, lake trout, sardines or herring twice a week. But it may be easier to take supplements.

9. Get pleasure, not pain

At least, not in the “ouch, ouch, OUCH!” way. Sex should feel amazing. If it’s painful, figure out why. It may be a simple matter of changing positions or adding lubricant.

But it could also be a yeast infection, an undiagnosed STD, endometriosis, painful bladder syndrome, vulvodynia or even cancer. Don’t try to diagnose it on your own – see your gynecologist.

If you’re still hurting and nothing is medically wrong, consider talking with a certified sex therapist. (Find one at www.aasect.org.)

“There can be emotional reasons for painful sex,” Sugg says, “particularly for women who’ve been raised in religious households or who’ve been sexually abused or raped.”

10. Meds can turn you off

Some medications – antidepressants, blood pressure medications, even birth control pills – can blunt your sex drive.

If you haven’t been feeling as frisky as you want, talk to your doctor about whether your prescriptions could be putting the chill on your libido. You might be able to use a lower dose or switch to a different medication.

11. Know thyself

Forget what you see in movies: Only about 30% of women reach orgasm through penetration alone. That means a whopping 70% of us need hands-on help to cross the finish line.

“It’s not all up to your partner,” Sugg says. “Share the responsibility and take on pieces of your own sexual pleasure.”

Touch yourself to bump up the heat, so you can have more – and better – orgasms, she says.

12. Give him instructions

He may not want you telling him how to drive, but he’ll appreciate direction about what pleases you.

Just don’t be bossy about it – unless he’s into that. A simple “It drives me wild when you (fill in the blank)” can work wonders.

Still not getting it? Take him by the hand and lead him down the path of your pleasure. Show him specifically where and how (lightly, firmly, slowly, quickly) you like to be touched. The reward? A bone-shivering orgasm.

13. Cultivate a rich fantasy life

You’ve heard it before: The most important sex organ is your brain. So stock it with sexy images to get your motor revved.

“It’s one more tool to bring to your play,” Barnard says. “There’s plenty of tasteful stuff out there, so you don’t have to expose yourself to something that’s going to offend you.”

Catch a couple late-night movies on cable. Or peruse the erotica at Good Vibrations (goodvibes.com).

Still missing that spark? Create your own porn. No, not that. Describe a fantasy in a diary or post it anonymously on a blog. Other people’s comments may help fuel new scenarios you can use.

14. Create a sexy space

You want your bedroom to feel like a place for good lovin’, not an office or nursery school.

Remodeling isn’t required. Simply clear out the kid toys, put away the work stuff and add small touches like candles or flowers.

15. Get some comic relief

Sex without gaffes only happens in movies. In real life, something’s bound to happen: One of you farts, you pull a muscle, the dog jumps in, you fall out of bed.

The only thing you can do – after checking for broken bones – is just laugh and roll with it. The pressure to have “perfect sex” is a definite mood-killer.

16. Birth control that’s controllable

It’s impossible to let yourself go if you’re worried about getting pregnant or contracting a disease.

The best birth control? The one you use without fail. Fortunately, if you do slip up, there’s always Plan B (a.k.a. emergency contraception).

“Plan B is a backup for the condom that breaks or the diaphragm that’s 20 miles away,” says Bruce Rosenzweig, M.D., director of urogynecology at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago. “It’s not recommended as a primary form of contraception.”

17. Don’t curb your enthusiasm

Some physical conditions impact your sex life. Heart disease, hypertension and diabetes “can profoundly affect our sexual health and pleasure,” Barnard says.

What’s the connection? Blood flow, baby.

“Sexual arousal is completely dependent on the blood flow to the tiny blood vessels in our genitals, including the clitoris, which gets erect the same way a man’s penis does,” Barnard explains.

So anything that impedes the rush of blood to your nether regions can substantially curb your enthusiasm. See your doctor for help.

18. Catch some zzz’s

About 67% of women have trouble sleeping, according to the National Sleep Foundation. And, as many working women know, when you’re tired, you’d rather sleep than have sex.

19. Get fit down there

You’ve heard this before, but here’s why you should do your Kegels: “Orgasms are your pelvic floor spasming,” Barnard says. “If your pelvic floor muscles aren’t very strong, you’re not going to feel much.”

How do you do it? Just squeeze and release. Make it more fun by squeezing them in sync to the music while you’re driving, recommends Lauri Romanzi, M.D., an urogynecologist at New York Presbyterian Hospital-Weill Cornell Medical Center. Do several sets of 20 to 30 reps per day, she says.

To make sure you’re Kegeling correctly, put a mirror between your legs and watch as you squeeze. “The perinea (the skin between the anus and vagina) should pull in, almost like someone’s pulling that skin into your body,” Romanzi says.

20. Take a Pilates class

Why Pilates and not another type of exercise?

“Pilates works a lot of ancillary pelvic floor muscles, like the transverse (or higher) abdominal muscles,” Barnard says. That’s important because working your transverse abdominals will strengthen your pelvic floor muscles too, similar to what Kegels accomplish.

Answered By: guillermo-ga on 23 Sep 2006 13:58 PDT
Thank you for such an interesting question. Studies have shown evidence of female ejaculation in between 10 and 40% of female orgasms. However, research is being performed under the hypothesis that ejaculation can occur in all (or most) cases (as suggests the article linked in a comment by my colleague Pinkfreud-ga, which I recommend you reading too), but probably most of them in an amount unnoticeable in an area typically humid during sexual intercourse -- thus, those percentages would correspond to those women who do notice their ejaculation. According to some laboratory tests, the fluid coming out during a female ejaculation would be a substance with some similarities to male semen in its composition, produced by the paraurethral glands or Skene's glands, often called "female prostate" for its similitude in placement, structure and, given the discovery of female ejaculation, function, with the male prostate, the responsible of the production of semen. More noticeably in women -- but also in men -- these glands have also a function of sexual stimulation. They are in the basis of the so called "vaginal orgasm" (as opposed to "clitoral orgasm", opposition that is being criticized lately), and are in the physiological structure of the famous G-spot or Gr fenberg spot, the location on the vagina anterior wall which would have sensitivity to sexual stimulation. More rigorously, when that area is being rubbed -- either by a penis, finger, etc. -- the glands in touch with it are those that experiment the stimulation. Thus, the female ejaculation is more likely to occur when stimulating the G-spot. The website The-clitoris.com "Dedicated to a Woman's Sexual Pleasure & Health", publishes excellent diagrams on how to stimulate this area and showing all the anatomy above depicted -- actually, you can have more extended explanations of the issue in it -- at their page "The Female Prostate, Female Ejaculation, and The G-Spot" (http://www.the-clitoris.com/f_html/ejacula.htm ) LINKS: The Grafenberg Area: Its Existence, Location, and Significance in Human Sexual Function (http://mama.indstate.edu/users/nizrael/grafenberg.html ) Excerpt: "Another interesting discovery associated with G-spot research is the incidence of female ejaculation. In "Female Urethral Expulsions Evoked by Local Digital Stimulation of the G-Spot: Differences in the Response patterns," an article in the Journal of Sex Research by Milan Zaviacic and his colleagues at Comenius University in Bratislava, this phenomena was studied in some depth. The study was conducted with twenty-seven women; a G-spot was found in all, and ten of them experienced episodes of feminine ejaculation. The accepted theory is that the G-spot is analogous to the prostate and associated glands, as it seems to produce a fluid chemically similar to male seminal fluid. This phenomenon is one that many women mistake for urinary incontinence, although the fluid released is actually quite different from urine. This is not an uncommon occurrence, as is shown in "Female Ejaculation: Perceived Origins, the Grafenberg Spot/Area, and Sexual Responsiveness," an article in the Archives of Sexual Behavior. According to the introduction, forty percent of the participants in an anonymous mail survey of 2350 women (with a fifty-five percent response rate) reported experiences of ejaculation (Darling, Davidson, Conway-Welch 29)." From the prestigious Q&A service of the Columbia University "Go Ask Alice": "This sounds like a G-spot phenomenon accompanied by female ejaculation. With a woman who is lying on her back and has her legs spread apart, the G-spot can be located by putting your fingers inside of her between 10 and 2 o'clock, as if her vulva were the face of a clock, with 12 at the top. Move your fingers deeper inside and curl them back so that they are touching and pressing against the top of her vagina or the "back door" of the clitoris. The G-spot swells from the size of a dime to the size of a quarter and fills with fluid that is NOT urine or vaginal fluid, which spurts out of the urtethra (not the vagina) when a woman orgasms." (http://www.goaskalice.columbia.edu/1267.html ) "Now researchers believe that female cum is produced by the Skene's glands, which are located in a woman's urethra and are made of tissue that's similar in composition to a man's prostate gland. These researchers point to chemical analysis of female ejaculate that reveals the presence of high levels of prostatic acid phosphatase (a chemical secreted by the prostate gland and found in semen). This would seem to indicate that a woman's ejaculation is similar in composition to semen (only without the sperm, of course)." (http://www.goaskalice.columbia.edu/1905.html ) From women's Barnard College newsletter The Well-Woman: "Recent studies suggest that anywhere from ten to forty percent of females can ejaculate (although the latest research indicates the possibility that all women produce female ejaculate, even if they are not aware of it), however women do not necessarily ejaculate every time they have an orgasm, and the amount of fluid they secrete can range from as little as a few drops, to nearly fifteen ounces (almost two cups). The fluid itself is produced in the paraurethral (?near the urethra?) glands, also known as ?Skene?s Glands,? and sometimes colloquially referred to as the ?female prostate?. The largest of these glands (there may be as many as thirty or more) are located near the urethral orifice, and may in some cases open into the vulva, but the exact quantity, size, and placement of these glands varies from woman to woman. During sexual arousal, the paraurethral glands fill with a liquid that is a blend of proteins similar to those found in male seminal fluid." I'm quite confident that this answer and links will satisfy your requirement. However, feel free to ask for clarification if you think it's necessary.

What is Female Ejaculation?

1193165_silhouette_pose_37

Most people think only of males when the word ejaculation is mentioned, but that's not always the case. There is a small number of women who actually ejaculate during orgasm, or at other times during sex naturally. The ejaculation that women have comes through their urethra (the tube through which they urinate) and is a prostate-like fluid that originates in the kidneys. It passes through the bladder and mixes with the fluid that comes from the female prostate. It's then pushed out, just like takes place during male ejaculation. The fluid itself is essentially comprised of the same thing as semen, with the exception that there is no sperm in it.

There are a lot of myths surrounding female ejaculation, though, and the most popular one is that the idea of a female being able to do this is completely untrue. Another common myth is that only certain women are able to do this. These myths are stated by others to be inaccurate, though, and it has been said that all women can ejaculate in this manner if they are taught the 'right way' to do so. There are books and videos which show the proper techniques for women to be able to do this if they do not do it naturally on their own.

    Kuwait: State Security Operatives Storm Apartment After Being Informed Man and Woman Were Committing "Immoral Acts"....

    If only they put this much effort into stopping jihadists....

    KUWAIT CITY: State Security operatives on Monday evening arrested two Asian expatriates for committing immoral acts in a flat in Fahaheel.

    Security sources said the operatives rushed to the scene and caught the suspects red-handed after the security guard of the building informed the security unit that a male Asian tenant had invited a female compatriot into his apartment.

    They were referred to the police station and a case was registered.
