it on the
boy’s penis as soon as he gets an erection.
Some boys say they worry about using
condoms in case they lose their erection
or have difficulty putting the condom
on. You could get some condoms and
practice beforehand. Condoms come with
instructions in words and pictures which
show exactly how to use them.

After the condom is on, the boy or girl
can guide his penis into her vagina. The
couple then move their bodies so that
his penis moves up and down inside her
vagina. This usually rubs the penis and
makes the boy sexually excited so that
he has an orgasm. The movement might
rub the girl’s clitoris too so she can have
an orgasm. But this depends on the
position the couple are in when they
have sexual intercourse.
There are quite a lot of different positions
for sexual intercourse. One common way
is for the girl and boy to be laying
down, face to face with either the girl or
boy on their back. Another way is for
the girl and boy to lay on their sides
with the boy behind the girl. If the boy
is behind the girl the penis might not
rub her clitoris and the girl or boy can
do this with their fingers.
WHAT IS ANAL INTERCOURSE?
Anal intercourse is when a boy puts his
penis into the anus and rectum of
another boy or girl. Some people might
have strong feelings, especially religious
or moral feelings about anal intercourse.
For some people it is very pleasurable.
But, other people may feel uncomfortable
about the idea of anal intercourse and
may never want to do it.
Some people think anal intercourse
between a girl and boy is a good thing to
do as a way of avoiding pregnancy. But
it is better instead to avoid pregnancy
by using contraception. Anyone wanting
to try anal intercourse ought to think
about whether the other person really
wants to do it. If one person wants to
try and not the other it is better not to
do it. Some people think that anal
intercourse is something that only gay
men do. This is not true. Many gay men
never have anal intercourse.
If two people are having anal intercourse
they should think about using a water-
based lubricant, like KY Jelly, and an
extra strong condom.

“I’d known Simon for ages, but it wasn’t until Year 11 that we started
going out. That was two years ago now and we’ve been together ever
since. After about a year we both felt we wanted to have sex, go all the
way. We’d nearly done it anyway what with all the snogging and
fumbling we’d done on sofas and at discos. Because we were friends
and talked a lot we talked about sex too.
I know we were both really nervous, but talking and laughing really
helped. Plus we were able to make sure nothing drastic happened.
Although we loved each other loads we certainly didn’t want a baby at
seventeen or to put our health at risk. So we went together to the clinic,
sorted things out so that there wouldn’t be any worries.
We made sure we picked the right time and the right place too. It
would have been awful for someone to walk in on us, during our
private time. What was it like? – Well it’s difficult to describe because
I’d never felt anything like it before really. I’d had orgasms through
masturbation before, but sharing yourself with someone you love and
respect was really good. It brought us closer together.”
THE FIRST TIME THE FIRST TIME
I’d known Simon
for ages…

"I was round at Terry’s. It was a great party. Loads of people were there. I was
just standing around with my mate Steve and I see this girl over his shoulder. She
smiles at me, right, so I give it the business. You know, I talk to Steve but every
now and then laugh really loud and look at her again, smiling loads. She kept smiling
back, so I moved in. We get talking and everything’s going f ine. She laughed at my
jokes. Next thing I know she’s looking at me all soppy and we kiss. Then it all got
out of control. She’s whispering to me to come upstairs - you know - and I said,
‘you go on, I’ll come in a minute, I’ve got to go to the loo f irst’, or something.
Anyway she goes off and Steve comes over. He’s really excited, going on about
‘taking my chances’ and ‘having it off’. I didn’t know what to say. I mean I was
really excited about the kiss still and he’s saying that I must be a right stud to pull
a girl like that. It is true, I have had lots of girlfriends but it doesn’t mean I’m
experienced. I mean, I’m really good at the chatting up and smooth-talking but I’ve
never actually done it. Slept with someone. But I couldn’t tell him that could I?
Anyway I went upstairs, and found her in the bedroom, with all the lights off on
top of a pile of coats. She had taken off half her clothes. I had been intending to
say something. All the way
