Engaging in sexual activity should always prioritize consent, safety, and mutual pleasure. Here are key considerations to keep in mind:



**1. Consent**

- **Clear and enthusiastic consent:** Both partners must agree to the activity without any pressure, coercion, or manipulation.

- **Ongoing communication:** Consent can be withdrawn at any time, so check in regularly with your partner.


**2. Communication**

- **Discuss expectations and boundaries:** Be open about your likes, dislikes, and limits.

- **Use verbal and non-verbal cues:** Pay attention to your partner's comfort and responses.


 **3. Protection and Safety**

- **Use contraception:** To prevent unintended pregnancy, use an appropriate contraceptive method.

- **Prevent STIs:** Use condoms or dental dams, especially with new or non-monogamous partners.

- **Regular health checks:** Get tested for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) regularly if you're sexually active.


**4. Hygiene**

- **Personal cleanliness:** Shower or clean up beforehand.

- **Clean environment:** Ensure the area is clean and comfortable.

- **Urinate after sex:** This helps reduce the risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs).


 **5. Emotional Connection**

- **Respect emotions:** Acknowledge and address any emotional needs your partner may have.

- **Be present:** Focus on creating a shared, pleasurable experience.


**6. Comfort and Pleasure**

- **Go at your own pace:** Don’t rush; let things progress naturally.

- **Explore together:** Experiment with what feels good for both of you.

- **Use lubrication:** To reduce discomfort and enhance pleasure.


**7. Respect Boundaries**

- **No assumptions:** Avoid making assumptions about what your partner wants or likes.

- **Accept no:** Respect their boundaries without complaint or argument.

 

**8. Aftercare**

- **Physical comfort:** Cuddle, talk, or relax together afterward if desired.

- **Emotional support:** Discuss how each of you feels to strengthen intimacy.


Sex is a deeply personal experience, so understanding and honoring your own and your partner's needs is essential.
