Reality Unlimited defines
sex as oral, anal, vaginal and hand to genital contact (mutual masterbation)
with a partner
Q - Can I wear
more than one condom at a time? Why?
No. Do not wear more than one at a time! A latex condom, when rubbed
next to, or against another condom, causes friction which will break
the condoms.
Q - If my boyfriend
doesn’t have an erection inside of me, can I get pregnant?
Yes. Sperm can still be released from the penis without an erection.
During sexual stimulation, pre-ejaculatory fluid (pre-cum) carries
more sperm than the entire ejaculation. If the penis only enters
part way, sperm will still be present and pregnancy is a risk.
Q - Can I get
a girl pregnant if she is on her period?
Yes. A menstrual cycle means that at some point during the flow
(3-6 days) the unfertilized egg is being ‘flushed’ out
of the female system. We have no way of determining which day that
is (could occur the first or the last day of menstruation!). If
during sexual activity sperm enter the female body, contact can
be made with the unfertilized egg, fertilize it and implant into
the uterus
.
Q - I only engage
in oral sex. Could I contract a STD?
Yes. Chlamydia, syphilis, gonorrhea, herpes, humanpapilomavirus
(genital warts) can all be passed through oral-genital contact.
Whenever you perform oral sex on a partner, you need to have your
mouth swabbed for STDs. Remember, if you have an STD in your throat
or mouth, you can pass it through non-sexual contact (kissing, sharing
water bottles, etc)!
Q - Am I still
a virgin if I have engaged in oral sex, anal sex, genital-to-genital
contact or hand to genital contact?
This is a questions we have received a number of times in classroom
discussions. Reality Unlimited does not take a particular stand.
Our job is to get you to think about sexual abstinence, from all
kinds of sex, until marriage. If abstinence until marriage is the
lifestyle you choose, there will be no doubt you are a virgin.
A hundred years ago, the term “virgin” meant “an
unmarried woman”!! Today, the working term basically means
one who has not had sex. Most of us take that to mean one who has
not had coitus (a fancy word for “vaginal sex”). However,
something interesting to note is that another definition of virginity
is one who is pure, untouched and unexplored. You should ask yourself:
What does pure mean? What does untouched mean? What does unexplored
mean?
Sure, you may still consider yourself a virgin
(technically) in this society if you haven’t had vaginal intercourse.
But make no mistake, if you are having oral or anal sex, or if you
are sexually stimulating someone’s genitals, you are still
having sex…and if you are having sex, are you a virgin?
Here are the definitions of virginity we found.
VIRGIN is not defined exclusively as someone who abstains from sexual
intercourse…
