"Sex in the Semester' or, Tour tips to make sex better 1
Part One:
and the
Semester:
What to
Sam Kittle
Sex Columnist
More than the act of
intercourse itself,
talking about sex is a taboo.
It doesn't matter who is
doing what with whom, but
find out about it and it's dis
gusting.
We like to think of our
selves as liberated college
students who have grown
away from our parent's
beliefs, but put sex in our
face or mention it around
our ears and we shut down.
I wanted to write a column
about sex because I do like
to talk about it. The philoso
phies of sex, the morals
behind it, and the act itself
consume my mind daily.
I look at discussing sex
the same way that others
see talking about politics,
and we all know how easy it
is at Guilford to discuss pol
itics.
I want to approach this
column with an honest
voice, so that discussing
sex will be just as simple
and painless.
I intend to be explicit,
humorous, inventive, and
provocative. I will speak
candidly about my beliefs
and ideas and encourage
you to read and respond
with a mutual openness.
I do not view sex as
something dirty or some
thing to be ashamed of. I
believe when sex is safe
and consensual, anything
goes. I hope that in reading
this column you might come
to hold a similar view.
I am in no means aiming
to encourage promiscuity or
senseless acts of sexuality,
in fact quite the opposite. I
believe that an honest, no
nonsense dialogue about
sex enables us all to make
healthier, wiser. It will help
us pinpoint our needs and
desires and learn not to fear
them, but to accept them.
I will offer up ways to
have better sex, to feel
more comfortable with sex,
and hopefully, sex will
become less wicked and
more fun.
Part 2: Four
Things to Start
Doing in Bed (if
you haven't
already)
1. Talk.
Never ever be afraid to
say to your partner what you
do or don't want, what you
like or don't like. If your
lover goes too fast tell them
to slow down. You must not
be ashamed to voice your
needs. The sex will be bet
ter for the both of you, I
promise.
This is especially true for
oral sex, in my opinion.
Ladies, don't get lazy while
someone else is going down
on you. It is a waste of
everyone's time if you don't
tell the other person where
to go and what to do once
FEATURES
they get there.
The same goes for inter
course, if you want to
change the position you
must go for it. Chances are
your partner is feeling the
same way, or will be very

turned on by your adventur
ousness and know-how.
If you do not like where
the sex is going speak up
and make it good for you, it
will inevitably be good for
them too.
2. Using Proper Tools.
Do I really need to say
that you must wear con
doms? Well, you must. Even
if you are dating
someone and you
are sure you can
both be monoga
mous, get tested for
everything and find
a different means of
pregnancy preven
tion before having
sex without a con
dom.
Aside from con
doms another
important tool to
having better sex is
lubrication. Ladies,
WWW.AMAZON.COM
do not be ashamed to get
lubed up before you go at it!
You can never be too wet,

and using lube does not
mean that you are not
turned on.
It just means you want to
get the best out of the expe
rience and that is sexy. For
the guys, don't be freaked
out if a girl busts out the
lube and puts it on the con
dom. If you incorporate it
into foreplay it can be very
erotic for the both of you.
Also, lubricant is

key for anal sex, don't
leave home without it.
3. Having
Respect.
Always respect your
partner's wishes. If
that means stopping
when they want to
stop, or keeping your
mouth shut and not
blabbing the details of
the encounter, then
do it.
Proper respect can
only come from prop-
er communication. You can
