Everybody wants to know how to achieve an orgasm, or at the very least, find pleasure.
To celebrate the Bring Your Own Condom campaign, Sex Out Loud led an open-forum discussion on sexual pleasure Tuesday evening in the Memorial Union.
Guided by the Sex Out Loud program facilitators, University of Wisconsin students George Jungbluth and Kristin Richards shared traditional and creative ways to find sexual stimulation.
“Try taking your elbow and rubbing it on his butt in a repetitive circular motion,” Richards advised.
But how to actually reach that elusive accomplishment — an orgasm?
“Trying different positions and communication are the key,” Richards said. “Most couples prefer the woman on top. In that position, she can act as the driver and control the speed.”
Jungbluth and Richards advocated masturbation as the best way to discover pleasure areas.
“Practice makes perfect,” Jungbluth said. “Masturbation is the easiest homework assignment in the world — you will always earn an A.”
The leaders showed a plethora of sex toys, ranging from the vibrator to the penis pump and nipple clamps (“There are a lot of ways to get off”), and Richards advised students about how to effectively masturbate (“To start, take a mirror”) so they can know what works and what does not.
“Once you master it, guide your partner,” Richards said.
Jungbluth and Richards closed the program with a condom demonstration, asserting the importance of safe, protected sex.
“Condoms are 95 percent effective, if used properly,” Jungbluth said. “Use them!”
Sex Out Loud is a student organization dedicated to changing community norms by promoting communication about issues of safer sex and healthy relationships.
“Our goal at Sex Out Loud is to do outreach and prevention in the area of sexual health, with emphasis on sexually transmitted infections and HIV,” said program coordinator Jessica Brumm. “We target groups that have been marginalized or left out of sexual-health education. We speak mostly with new college students who have received minimal and inadequate safer-sex and healthy sexual education.”
