how do you have sex in the water.

It's no different. It may feel uncomfortable for the girl though because of the water and pressure. It's not good for the vagina, think bacteria. So don't do it often.

He's being really weird around my girlfriend, and she doesn't know it, but he flirts with her all the time. I am afraid if I say something about it, my girl will get mad at me. What should I say without making my problem worse?

I am 16/m

Don't talk to your girlfriend about it. She's not the problem. If she doesn't recognize it, it's not considered a threat. It depends if he acts like that around other girls too. Maybe he's just like that. You can tell him to stop by doing a few things like holding her hands or being somewhat closer to her when he's around. If he's not taking the hint, speak up.

I would like to know, which is better at cramps, midol or pamprin? If you have an answer, that would really help a lot.

I've always used Midol since the cramps disappear super quick !

Okay so I have a lot of guy friends and they all love talking to me. I have a crush on a few of them, and I'm pretty sure they like me at least a little bit. But there's always some girl who is hotter than me, or cooler than me that they like more. How can I make myself sexier? What do guys consider hot?

Confidence is hot. Don't doubt yourself. What is hot and sexy is totally up to the guy. But really, some guys think porn stars and celebs are sexy but they would not want their lover to look like that at all. Natural, confidence and a cute smile. It's different for every guy so if you are highly interested in one.. you need to start flirting :P

yo, how many girls in the 7th grade think shave there vaginas..like..do most do, or do most not

When I was in middle school... this topic came up in the lockerooms lol It's either trim or shave. The hair peeks through swimsuit bottoms so it's best to trim and wax/shave bikini area if you are interested.

what are you guys opinions on someone getting drunk to lose there virginity. because im thinking about doing that cause im scared its really going to hurt. and i dont want to have to deal with the pain. and by the way im 16 female. thankyou in advancee

Some of my friends have tried this and it does not make the situation any better. You may not even remember it or it will hurt.


Honestly, sex should not hurt that bad. Just wait for it. I was 16 when i lost mine and I'm still in the relationship two years later. Sex is uncomfortable but if you are with that right guy, then they will do their best to make it comfortable for you. It did not hurt for me at all. Just open up and get into foreplay. Warm up and take your time. It's great :] The important thing is to relax and get into the moment. It only hurts if you are dry and tight(not relaxed/comfortable) That's it to it. You should try lube + lubricated condoms. It really does help!

How do you become a fun person to hang out with? None of my friends are very fun to hang out with, so I'm afraid when I hang out with other people that I'm not fun. What makes a person fun to be around?

It just depends on so many things. You can't change who you are. If you are happy and make jokes, make people feel comfortable .. then it's fun. Sometimes you just need to try something different like hanging out somewhere else and other people. Sometimes it's just the group, try mixing friends and hanging out. Things sort of click that way. I had two friends from different schools and they hit it off well when we hung out. I know some certain friends of mine are better suited for a movie night opposed.. to the mall or even dinner. You must be fun if people want to hang out with you. If people don't blow you off for something else, you are fun.

It's not something you should worry too much about. If you weren't interesting enough to hang out with, people would come up with excuses not to.

Just have fun and laugh. If you can be silly around people, it's good!

okays sooo, ive been on birth control for like two years now, and i have never known the answer to this question, ive tried to ask my ginocologest but she didnt really answer me.
butt.. when your on birth control, can the guy like cum in you and you wont get pregnant. Like im not stupid me and my boyfriend still use condoms every single time and were still going to, but im just kinda curious casue if not then what does birth control do?

Birth control regulates periods, reduces cramping, helps with mood swings/makes it worse, reduces bleeding days, can make you lose or gain weight (cup size!), calm down your hormones so less acne OR increase in acne, etc. I know people that do this and don't get pregnant, there's always a chance it will. Birth control is protection, it isn't 100% effective so you could have unprotected (condoms) sex but there's a chance you'll get preg. That's why the pill and a condom together is effective. A condom alone is still good protection but if it breaks, there's no "extra" shield like the pill.

The pill is hormones, chemicals, etc. It controls out bodies. Basically it keeps your ovaries from releasing eggs and getting contact with sperm. Which is what I meant by shield. The pill also thickens a woman’s cervical mucus which blocks sperm.

It also protects you from abnormal breast growths, cancers (ovarian for example), PMS symptoms, anemia (iron deficiency) and vaginal dryness.

If you're going to do it, then go to a pharmacy and buy plan B. I wouldn't make unprotected (condoms!) sex a habit, every so often.. is alright if you're taking the pill daily AND have BACK UP *ready*

Women still get pregnant while on the pill, esp. if there's no condoms. A least 1 in 100 yearly.

15/F
I normally just use a plain face wash by Neutrogena or something, and it's impossible for me to tell what my skin type is. I think it might be combination.
Well on my face, ESPECIALLY on my nose, cheeks, and chin, I have really big pores. They look like a lot of little black dots. I think it's causing me to break out a lot.
Are there any products you would recommend? Something I could find at WalMart or a local drugstore, please.
Home remedies are great, too.
Thanks so much! :D

You'll need a toner. I personally like Clean and Clear's astringent because it doesn't burn the crap out of your skin. And I'm comparing to like Ponds Toner. I had a couple of my friends try that out and it feels cold at first, then your skin suddenly becomes red. if you want to reduce pores, you'll need to do mask or try putting an ice cub on your nose. Pore strips for your nose is great too!

but it's important to tone. Think honey, oxy pads, etc.

I've had a Facebook for like a year now under my name but I have no pic and when people add me I just don't add them. so it says I have no friends... but I have no pic and no ifo or w/e in it. i've ever even touched it.

If you saw a blank facebook like this would u think i am a loser or would you just think that it's just unused? i know it's a stupid question... but just answer it honestly

I think unused like someone joined, didn't like it and left it alone.

my bf is nice, i wont deny that. he may be crude sometimes but hes a nice boy. problem is hes not that sweet. he doesn't do things that you wanna go awww. not that hes boring or anything, hes just not cute either. hes funny and stuff but i guess im such a girl that i fall for the stupid little things like being called princess and sent cute messages etc. i feel like this is keeping me from falling in love with him. its a bit shallow i guess but those things are what make me fall in love. but of course i dont want to tell him this, I dont want him to be sweet if its forced and he feels like he has to. so my question is how can i indirectly influence him be sweeter, or more romantic?
i know some of you will want to say that maybe that's just not him, and i shouldn't change him because i cant, but you know what, this same thing happened to my friend and her bf. he wasnt the type to be sweet, but then i have no clue what she did and now hes like the cutest guy ever and romantic and all, even tho its not in his personality at all. So i see that it IS possible...how do i do it?
thanks in advance! =)

You'll need to wait. If you happen to watch a movie and something romantic comes up, you can go aww how sweet. He might take a hint. Do things like that to hit it off or otherwise wait. If it's a new relationship (under a year) it may take some time for him to open up like that. If you don't show him that you're interested in romance, then he won't know. Guys don't take indirect hints well. I don't think you should break up with him or anything over that either. It's just he doesn't know and he probably doesn't know if you'll want to receive a treatment like that. You can tell him a fake story about how somebody's boyfriend dropped on by and did this and that.. and how sweet/wonderful/cute it was.

i've heard that if you apply the goopy inside from an aloe-vera plant on an acne scar, then it will get rid of it in a matter of days.

i have a few acne scars, and im on christmas break..2 weeks. and i REALLY REALLY want to get rid of them by the time that i go back to school.

so..i cant really get an aloe vera plant..but if i put aloe vera gel..like the stuff you put on sunburns..would that help the acne scars?

and also..do you know any other really good treatments that are really cheap..maybe something that i can do at home? or something that i can just buy at walmart or something?

thanks so much!

You can't get rid of acne scars in a matter of days.. or even 2 weeks.

You have to exfoliate the skin to remove the dead skin. It took me quite some time to fade my scars.

Buy some masks or a exfoliater. I've used wet crushed aspirin and honey as one. It worked fairly well.

I recently started stretching my ears. I'm at a 4G right now, and I baught 2's that I'm going to put in after I heal.
No one I really know has ever done this, so I was wondering if the pain I'm feeling is normal, I'm pretty sure it is, but it's like, when I do my left ear, the complete left side of my body tingles and is in pain. I put antibacterial cream all over the tapers and all over my ear before I started stretching. Was that a good idea?
And also, I'm in a nursing class and we have to put in clinical hours starting somewhere around the end of January, if I take my plugs out, will I be able to regain the shape in my ear? I heard that once you go to a zero, you can't get your shape back, but if you're smaller than a zero than you're in the clear. True?

Thanks.

It's normal. The 4G was the size that hurt the most for me anyway. Cleaning it is okay but I wouldn't put any cream or anything on it before stretching. Most people end up tearing the ear a bit when stretching.

It takes months for your ear to adjust to the size fully. If you take the plugs out, it will slowly go down throughout the day. It depends on how long you have had it at a 0. My boyfriend had 00's and he took it out for the day. It went down to a 4.


It's different for every person. I used to hear if you reach 2's, you wouldn't be able to size down. But I've also heard some people sizing down slowly and regaining the shape back.

ok im 15 female and im not on birth control yet but i am sexually active..i just got past a pregnancy scare and me and my bf had sex last night and he was wearing a condom when we started but at the end we dont know what hapend to it...should i be worried bout it? like if it is in me what should i be doing about it? should i be worried about getting pregnant again? please help i do not want to go through all the worry again...


Okay this has happened to me before. The condom slipped off inside me and it's best to go to a health clinic to check it out. Do not attempt to get it out yourself or with someone else. My boyfriend ended up pushing it inside more and it was already in too deep, it hurt quite a bit for him to grab it. You need to get it out if you haven't. Go with your friend or boyfriend if you have to.

You need to go on the pill. You may be pregnant if the condom broke or is in you still.

Ikno its wrong but everytime i eat i feel likei need 2 sleep
I Dont sleep RIGHT AWAYT someties i wait a half hour sometimes 20 minutes then igo take a nap...is it bad? i heard u could gain fat.
But i workout everyday
im not trying to lose weight btw
i just dont want to gain.
I work out everydayy so yeah could it affect anything? thanks.

I don't think it has anything to do with eating too much. Just make sure you have some fruits for breakfast and some in the afternoon. I used to work out everyday and that boosted my energy..

You could always try an iron pill daily to help.

You could also be pushing yourself too much when working out.

which smell do guys prefer on girls?

strawberry?

Depends on the guy. I didn't use any body spray or perfume for awhile. Some guys commented about how good I smelled because of the shampoos I used. Like strawberry milk, green apple, etc. The scent is just sweet and lingering. Lotion is good too.

I use Bath & Body Works Black Raspberry. It's fresh and it's not too overpowering.

All I know is that guys don't like perfume that is so heavy, it's for old women. It's like trying to disguise bad smell.. a mix of fruit and flowers.

I say anything fresh and light would be good.

Me & my g/f are thinking bout having sex. i wanna fuck her really bad, but I'm scared about getting her pregnent. She sayz she take birth control, but its only for her periods. Does that still work to stop her from getting pregnent?

We talk about it some and like she said that if I'm scared, we can just do it while she is on her period. If we do that, she won't get pregnent right? Its not too messy is it? Should I like nut on her stomach?

She's on the pill. Be smart and use a condom. If you don't, then you'll have to worry about STDS & PREGNANCY. Remind her to take her pill at the same time and it should be good.

You can always go to a clinic to get the morning after pill, right?

She's protected for 3 weeks. It's not 100% so that's why you must use a condom if you do not plan to have a child. She can still get pregnant if you do it on her period & I've heard that people like it and that some people don't because it's messy.

our anniversary is coming and i dont know what i should get him or give him i dont want it too be way to big or fancy just something to show him i love him and care for him and its only been a month a buncha ideas are great!

Something very small (Especially if you don't know if he "celebrates" monthly anniversaries lol.) a bag of his favorite candy or a cute teddy bear. You could plan a date out to fast food or watch movies [either at home or theaters]

save ...
making him a CD, dinner dates, cards, etc for later dates.

do u wear a thong under ur swimsuit bottom. do guys like it?

No. I don't know any girl that does.

I'm sure guys like the swimsuit alone lol. Bikini bottoms or even boyshorts are pretty hot.
