How many autosomes and sex chromosomes do males and females have? What are the sex chromosomes? Thank you!|||22 pairs of autosomes and a pair if sex chromosomes. They are labelled X and Y. An XX pairing is female and XY is male.|||well it depends on what species you're talking about. human was already mentioned (with the exception of certain rare cases)
birds have a ZW sex determination scheme where ZW = female, ZZ=male. even more exotic is sex determination in platypii; i think they systems seems to be determined by the ratio of X to Y or something like that.|||23 pairs total,
22 autosome pairs,
1 sex pair,
XX in women
XY in males
happy genetics!

Can we have unprotected sex 7 to 8 days before the periods start?
i never miss my periods,its only 1 to 2 days delay not more then that. i already have a 16mnths ols son and at this moment i am not planning for another one.so i am expecting my periods to start today or tommorrow latest but i am just worried hat i had unprotected sex 7 to 8 days before my period starts..so is that safe or have i done a mistake.if you can please let me know.is there any medicine which i can take now.do you think it will work now.|||you wont get pregnant cuz u r in ur luteinizing phase,,its the phase in which the endometruim lineing uterus prepare its self to be shed during menses..|||So it's been about 6 days since you had unprotected sex. I'm afraid its much too late for the morning after pill, you will ust have to wait and see if your period comes.
To get pregnant from intercourse 7-8 days bedore your period starts, would mean that you have a 7-8 day luteal phase, this is generally unlikely, and would most likely be too short so support a pregnancy anyway. Seeing as you allready have a child, I'd guess that your luteal phase is longer than 7-8 days, so i don't think you will be pregnant.|||Everyone's body is different when it decides to ovulate. Most people ovulate 11-14 days after the start of their period which is like 2 weeks after but this doesn't always happen like that. If you are not planning another baby right now, then never have unprotected sex.. The only thing I know of is the morning after pill.. I don't agree with abortions because there are soooo many people out there that can't have babies that would do anything to love one of someone elses' so I wouldn't have unprotected sex anytime if you aren't wanting another one really soon.. Have a good day and Good Luck!|||If you are pregnant, the "Plan B" (emergency contraception) pill is intended to be taken within 72 hours (3 days) of unprotected sex. You should NOT take it now.
The "best" time to have sex to get pregnant is the day before, the day of, or the day after you ovulate.
Most women ovulate 14 days before their period.
If your periods are regular, and if you ovulate 14 days before your period, you may not be at a high risk for pregnancy.
However, not all women ovulate on a schedule. The menstrual cycle is controlled by hormones produced by the brain, and factors such as stress, diet, exercise, and medication can affect this cycle.
I understand that you're worried. However, there is literally nothing you can do right now about your situation other than to wait to see if your period starts. Once it's a week to 10 days late, you may want to take a urine pregnancy test.
If you don't want to have another child, please consider using some type of contraception. This article discusses your body, his body, and contraception and is an excellent "Owner's Manual" for all couples to read. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/birth-c鈥?/a>|||Unprotected sex is never safe. But there's little you can do about it now but wait for your period as the morning after pill only works for 72 hours after sex. Be more careful next time and hopefully you won't have to deal with an unplanned pregnancy, good luck.

as you kiss her start undressing her slightly, (taking of her jacket or something) while kissing her neck. theres no need to rush and take everything off all at once, just gradually slip things off. hopefully she will start undressing you as well, as your doing all this, make your way to the bedroom and lie down on the bed and everything should get going from there, good luck! :P|||well, first, grab her boobs from behind and rub them a bit, if she's okay with that, ask, "now's the time, let's have it.", if she says okay, then depending on whether you want her fully naked or not, take off her bra first, and then slowly her shirt. then, pull down your pants in a sexy fashion and enjoy!

How long after having sex will it show positive on a pregnancy test?
My girlfriend and I had sex four (4) days ago and she said she fells nausea and vomiting... Will it show positive on a blood test so early?|||it's way to soon for her to even be pregnant if this was your only unprotected sexual encounter. It can take up to two weeks for an egg to implant, and without implantation, she is not pregnant. A womens body doesnt produce the Hcg hormone until implantation has occurred and pregnancy symptoms don't exist without that hormone.
She can test if she misses her period. It would be a waste of your time and money to test until that time.
If you don't want a baby, wrap it up mister.|||O.k. well first of all let me tell you that 4 days after having sex is way too soon for her to be having symptoms of pregnancy. Her body doesn't even realize she's pregnant yet (assuming that she is). Taking a pregnancy test this soon would make it very unlikely for you to get an accurate result. Pregnancy tests are typically only accurate after the first missed period, some of the more expensive ones can give you an accurate reading up to a week before a missed period but no sooner than that. From what I have heard the only way you can test for pregnancy that early is by having a blood test done and it still might be too soon|||too soon you have to wait until her missed period to show positive on a home pregnancy test which is usually 28 days after her last period. Feeling nausea and vomiting 4 days after means nothing but a stomach bug.|||You can check around ten (10) days after you had sex, OR up to a week before her missed period.|||No it takes close to one to two months to show after her first missed period|||as soon as 2-4 week to have the positive result if pregnancy.|||it wouldn't show this early. you would have to wait atleast 2 weeks|||no, give it a few months|||it take about 2 or 3 weeks or even a month. it all depends.

What does sex mean to you in your marriage?
I read in another post that men do everything in their marriage because they are motivated by sex. (I am sure I completely messed that up. Sorry if I misunderstood your point of view, Shannon)
What role does sex play in your marriage? How do you view sex?|||In my marriage, sex is one of the many ways that we bond with each other and build intimacy. Its something special that we only share with each other. And of course it meets our physical needs, as well. Its not the MOST important thing about our relationship, but it is VERY important. To both of us.
I don't know whether the statement you read is necessarily true or not, obviously I don't think like a man, but I bet that it definitely becomes true when one partner uses sex as a bargaining chip or something that has to be earned through "good behavior". When you choose to share yourself with someone out of love and for no other reason, then your spouse doesn't have to alter their behavior to make sure they get satisfied.|||I think men ARE sexually motivated... its called lust... but that doesnt mean that they're incapable of having other intentions too (like love). In my marriage, sex plays a huge role. I dont want to say that everything revolves around sex with us, but it kinda does. I mean, sex makes both of us feel wanted, loved, relaxed, sexy and physically taken care of. With all those things out of the way, we can focus on communication, trust, finances, family life and work, with nothing interferring... As seperate people, we just love sex. And as a couple, we love sex even more. We are very affectionate (always touching or cuddling, etc) and playful (betting sexual favors or being open to experimentation) and i think that reflects how often we have sex and how passionate it is.
If my husband all of the sudden stopped having sex with me, i couldnt go too long before i slept with someone else or left him... And men are the same way. Its just a normal human reaction.|||For me, in my early years, sex in marriage meant everything. It was a way of expressing my love for my husband and to draw close. During the child rearing days, things slowed up a bit only because I was exhausted, but we still managed it a few times a week. Now that I'm older, I still want and enjoy sex only my husband now has health issues which makes getting and maintaining an erection a problem so sex is often put on the back burner. I miss it but try to make up for it in other intimate ways such as kissing, holding each other, holding hands, etc. Time changes us all. At least for me, I know, that sex is no longer the chief motivating factor for my husband to do things for me. When he does things it's out of a loving heart and not from the bulge in his pants.|||I think sex plays an important role in a marriage. It is a way to interact in an intimate way and to show love and care in a very personal way. For my husband and I sex is something that we use as a point of enjoyment and pleasure. It is not a main goal for either of us, even though we have sex almost every day. I think it is a fundamental part of our relationship but is not more important than trust or love for us.|||A Sex role,whats that.Some how sex is work to a women and when they don,t want to work they won,t,So if you want sex don,t bother because its work.I look at women every day and and view what it would be having sex with curtain women,oh they look so good.but its like a fantasy to us guys.S o you have your own personal fun.Sex is only okay for women who want it because they want closeness to someone.|||sex plays an important role but it definitely isnt everything.. sex is what keeps some men motivated but for others its the love for there wife and kids etc.. knowing they have a family to love and support..

What are the ways through which one can educate children about sex?
Where can one find more information on sex education? What resources are available for educating children on sex? If sex education does not happen in school, where should one find forums, teachers etc to help them understand the facts about sex? |||Hopefully their parents should know something about sex and should not be embarrassed to discuss sex with their children starting at around age 12.|||many people say you should w8 til the child is 12-14, that is soooooo dumb! my parents told me when i was 8/9 and i feel thats the correct age. that was 2nd grade i believe. in 4th grade we learned it at school, so you should tell ur children about it before its tought in school. dumb ppl
|||definitely start a LOT earlier than 12. probably around 7-8, because these days kids that are 12 are already having sex, drinking and all that ****... so start teaching them long before they reach that age pleaaase...
|||The best way is to talk to children directly about sex when they start learning the reproduction process in the Biology lessons in their school or when they knowingly / unknowingly express their slightest knowledge of sexual activity.
This should be followed up time to time by a very friendly and direct approach by parents discussing the practical side of the consequences, the attached responsibility, what to expect from sex and how to protect themselves from STDs and AIDS. Parents should not wait till children ask questions related to safety and health, as by the time the question is asked a damage may possibly have been done without anybodys knowledge. In fact this should be considered the first priority on awareness.
The discussions should include the pleasure side of sex and how to enjoy responsibly keeping in mind the attached sentiments of partners which can have diasastrous long term psychological consequences if not understood properly.
Many children are exposed to myths and perversions attached to sexual activity from various circles. Care should be taken to dispose of these beliefs.
Most importantly children should be made very much aware of how they should protect themselves from paedophiles and other sexual predators.
The parents should be upto date about sex from the teenagers perspective in current times, so that the level of confidence of the children on the preachings is not damaged by an outdated knowledge of sex.
The internet is a big resource for getting information. The parents should refer to sites like Wikipedia, Youtube, Google with relevant searches. To be very candid sometimes parents awareness of sexual websites (porn) also helps in seeing what the children see in secret and helps keep a track and handle situations if the children are misguided by wrong information.|||It has been seen that many physical changes take place from the age 12 to 17. During this age children might not understand these changes and fall into trouble because of their excitement about knowing everything about sex. So, this is the perfect time to educate them about physical changes but not sex and relationship. And convey the message to them after doing lots of research as they can misuse the information due to carelessness. Try to attract their attention to religious activities for the purities of their mind. And please do not talk much about sex to them
Gopal|||we can educate children about sex in our home only.According to me parents are the best trainers who can educate children about sex.
1st step-let children known the body parts of their own
2nd step-let children known the body parts of each-other
3rd step-children should be allowed to be naked in their homes till 8 yrs
4th step-they should be taught that how body grows specially sex organs
5th step-they should be allowed to talk about sex openly
6th step-they should be taught that sex is nothing but a body need
7th step-most importantly they should have enough freedom
these are the steps through which you can educate children about sex.|||to educate the childern about sex, 1; the age of the child shold beabout 12 to 14 as the adolescet period in full swing.we cannot use the direct example.

Normally it should start at around 12 years for girls and 14 years for boys and then with their increasing maturity the subject should be slowly introduced to them.
The way the education should be imparted is mostly through class room teaching and partially by the parents at home. Sex of animal kingdom should be taught first and then we can come slowly to human sex. Being a teacher I explain little bit of the physiology in the B.S 1st year class. I have found if explained as a matter of teaching, childrens take up the things easily.
Dr. Manash K. Paul|||The best age according to my experience - onset of maturity in girls after 10 and boys at about 16 years when they start reaching adulthood. Girls will know when they get menstrual fluid and in boys when they feel their first ejaculation of seminal fluid.
Till such time, they will not understand sexual instinct.
They can be made to known different body structure of Males and Females through anatomical charts. You can also take the help of medical professionals such as Auxiliary Nurse Midwife to start with, who are trained in such subjects. Anatomy
Along with teaching sex, the boys and girls shall be made to know simple rules with regard to premature sexual contacts viz., attempting to sexual relationship when they are minors which leads to legal action against them.
The meaning of anatomy is very important and both boys and girls including untrained parents shall be made to know, which is as follows:
Human anatomy, including gross human anatomy and histology, is primarily the scientific study of the morphology of the adult human body.[1]
Generally, students of certain biological sciences, paramedics, physiotherapists, nurses and medical students learn gross anatomy and microscopic anatomy from anatomical models, skeletons, textbooks, diagrams, photographs, lectures and tutorials. The study of microscopic anatomy (or histology) can be aided by practical experience examining histological preparations (or slides) under a microscope; and in addition, medical students generally also learn gross anatomy with practical experience of dissection and inspection of cadavers (dead human bodies).
Human anatomy, physiology and biochemistry are complementary basic medical sciences, which are generally taught to medical students in their first year at medical school. Human anatomy can be taught regionally or systemically;[1] that is, respectively, studying anatomy by bodily regions such as the head and chest, or studying by specific systems, such as the nervous or respiratory systems. The major anatomy textbook, Gray's Anatomy, has recently been reorganized from a systems format to a regional format,[2][3] in line with modern teaching methods. A thorough working knowledge of anatomy is required by all medical doctors, especially surgeons, and doctors working in some diagnostic specialities, such as histopathology and radiology.
Academic human anatomists are usually employed by universities, medical schools or teaching hospitals. They are often involved in teaching anatomy, and research into certain systems, organs, tissues or cells.|||I am a father of 13 year boy, I never discourage him asking me any question relating to sex considering a child most curious most enthusiastiac in the world.

I didn't understand everything, but it was the best thing she could have done for me. When I was seven, I decided that I was going to stay a virgin until I was married, and I did so. I had values about sex early, so they lasted.
When I got my first serious boyfriend, she told me that she would take me to get birth control if I needed it, no questions asked. Though she did suggest that I think really hard before I make that decision. Needless to say, I never needed birth control pills because, in my mind, sex wasn't an option.

- Memories -or- The Boat|||there is no age bar, the best time to start is the day when your child starts asking questions about sexuality may not directly but several questions like why xyz got married? how children are born etc never ever say that they would understand those things when they grow up.
and what to tell is one more importent thing, many of them think sex education means telling kids how to have sex and orgasams etc it is not that.
many children end up haveing sex at earlier age out of curiosity so tell them what it is, and also talk about sexual abuse any myths they have then tell somethinglike this sex is a union of male and female and why is it importent.and why one should not think about it when they are young (tell the kids that it hinders there daily sports or what ever they love and also problams associated with it like sexually transmitted diseases and how it can ruian their life) and for example
and lastly ask them to ask you about any doubts they may have and not their friends.
even if they tell you that they are attarcted to boy or girl, dont get angry or tell them that it is just a infactuation (but it is real for these kids it will not help them understand they would think you dont understnad them and they look elsewhere for answers) but ask them some questions why do they like that boy or girl, or you can ask them are you going to live with this one guy/girl for comming 60yrs?
asking such questions make them "think" and make the right desicion themselves and most importently give them some time to make the desicion, after all you are not going to be there with them for ever, duering this period moniter them,(does not mean follow them and start monitering their calls like FBI but just be cautious about where are they going whom are they meating etc, ask them how far she/he is going in there attraction,any problams in the relationship etc, take the right movement to discourage the relationship softly .
if you give time your kid would never get into any problams
best of luck

when he was of the age of 7/8 years, I gave him educational books like know your body. AND DISCUSSED WITH HIM ABOUT OUR BODY.
Gradually he was shown other similar books on child birth suitable for his age group.AND DISCUSSED WITH HIM ABOUT OUR BODY.
By 12/14, he had a fair idea of what is reproductive system, foetus, egg, sperm, aids.

- Memories -or- The Boat|||there is no age bar, the best time to start is the day when your child starts asking questions about sexuality may not directly but several questions like why xyz got married? how children are born etc never ever say that they would understand those things when they grow up.
and what to tell is one more importent thing, many of them think sex education means telling kids how to have sex and orgasams etc it is not that.
many children end up haveing sex at earlier age out of curiosity so tell them what it is, and also talk about sexual abuse any myths they have then tell somethinglike this sex is a union of male and female and why is it importent.and why one should not think about it when they are young (tell the kids that it hinders there daily sports or what ever they love and also problams associated with it like sexually transmitted diseases and how it can ruian their life) and for example
and lastly ask them to ask you about any doubts they may have and not their friends.
even if they tell you that they are attarcted to boy or girl, dont get angry or tell them that it is just a infactuation (but it is real for these kids it will not help them understand they would think you dont understnad them and they look elsewhere for answers) but ask them some questions why do they like that boy or girl, or you can ask them are you going to live with this one guy/girl for comming 60yrs?
asking such questions make them "think" and make the right desicion themselves and most importently give them some time to make the desicion, after all you are not going to be there with them for ever, duering this period moniter them,(does not mean follow them and start monitering their calls like FBI but just be cautious about where are they going whom are they meating etc, ask them how far she/he is going in there attraction,any problams in the relationship etc, take the right movement to discourage the relationship softly .
if you give time your kid would never get into any problams
best of luck
|||I can share what i did with my son, now aged 18. (I am his father)
when he was of the age of 7/8 years, I gave him educational books like know your body. AND DISCUSSED WITH HIM ABOUT OUR BODY.
Gradually he was shown other similar books on child birth suitable for his age group.AND DISCUSSED WITH HIM ABOUT OUR BODY.
By 12/14, he had a fair idea of what is reproductive system, foetus, egg, sperm, aids.
Now, at the age of 18, probably he can understand other adult books. |||The parents play a major role in the sex education of their children
now a days children's have lessons about sex (in school) the best age to start sex education was 13 .todays children's was ignoring

This is the best way to talk with them about sex and its necessity and how to escape from its bad consequences.|||The difficult thing should be made to easy one, its realy difficult
to educate the child on sex of age 14 and above so to make it easy one should narret/ make some story of it in which you should be able to

awear of dengers|||My answer is, sex is not a subject to teach, growing children who is having commonsense can understood all about this from thier surrounding enviornment, that is enough, after the theory class how they can practice it ?, give good advices to the children, allowe them grow with God fearing, that is nice, no need of teory, practical, examination or certificate to sex.

How effective is anal sex against pregnancy?
I have read on many websites that pregnancy, though unlikely, is still possible if semen dripped from the anus to the vaginal area, but I cannot seem to find any actual percentages of how often pregnancy occurs among women who have anal sex as a form of birth control. Please list your sources so that I can read up on this. Thanks!|||very low chances...just be careful you don't get sperm near the vagina...and also, urinary tract infections are very common with anal sex because there is bacteria in the intestinal tract and if it gets near the vagina/urethra it will cause a urinary tract infection, so NEVER go directly from anal to vaginal sex without cleaning up first...|||You don't need a percentage. What you've read is perfectly legit. If you have anal sex, pregnancy won't occur. If semen gets in her vagina, however, that's the only way she can get pregnant. Like the last guy said, that's why they make condoms, so that things like that don't happen.|||very effective.|||Well....it doesn't get you pregnant. But this is why we have condoms and birth control pills|||Wow I'm sorry, but the answers before me are just terrible. You have very near the same chance of pregnancy with anal sex. This is because the anus and vagina are in such close proximity to one another. Often when a male pulls out from anal sex this will bring semen out and only and inch or two at the most away from the vaginal opening. All I can say is that anal sex is usually not as enjoyable for the man or woman, so it's much better to have sex using proper birth control than having anal sex.
How soon after unprotected sex can you tell if you pregnant?
How soon can you find if your pregnant after you have unprotected sex? Trying to have a baby and just curious?|||I actually waited to see if I was pregnant because I knew he had ejaculated in me. It took about two weeks for me to get symptoms and a stick that said I was prego.

What do you think about having unprotected sex after just beginning the "Yaz" oral contraceptive?
For Sunday Start, one is supposed to wait a full week before having unprotected sex, according to the pamphlet. What about unprotected sex on Friday or Saturday? Too risky?|||It's risky. Many of them say a month on them, rather than a week. 6 and 7 days really isn't much of a difference, so if your going to do it sunday you might as well just do it saturday too.
If you've waited this long, i would wrap it up for a couple weeks more just to be safe. |||I read two months in the Taz Pamphlet, but I have been off and on birth control for a while, and now back on YAZ. I have not had trouble having unprotected sex on YAZ and started the first month I was on it, I don't know though.

How can people against gay marriage and sex before marriage at the same time?
People want to say sex before marriage is bad, yet gays can't marry in most of the world!
So basically are you saying that only straight sex before marriage is bad?|||It involves people's morals. People who think sex before marriage clearly view marriage differently that those who don't. Marriage to these people is a more sacred thing and since these people also view homosexuality as wrong, why would they condone them being married when they value marriage as being the foundation of family and life.|||Well, most of those people are against gay sex, period. In fact, they'd rather we didn't exist. AND they're against premarital hetero sex because it's all about a man owning the woman he impregnates. Personally, I think sex before marriage is a good idea. The only sadder thing than sexual incompatibility is finding out that you're incompatible after the marriage.|||good point, I guess people who say that are religious, so they don't accept gay sex at all, before or after marriage, gay sex is a sin, so having sex after marriage wouldn't matter.|||No; it's very easy. You would just, by default of logic, be against gay sex, as it would be, innately, pre-marital.

How do you reduce sex drive in teenage girls?
I am fifteen, and all I have ever done is make out %26amp; kinda a mini hand job with a boy i use to date but I am horny like every single day. Masturbating feels like I am sinning so I don't know how to decrease my sex drive!|||Don't listen to BrownGuy! He's an ignorant person. Anyway honey, I'm 16 soon to be 17 in a month and I'm horny everyday too! But I had sex for the first time in December and since then all I can do it push those thoughts outta my mind when I'm losing it. You can't decrease your sex drive, you can only get yourself busy to forget about sex. I masturbate from time to time, 'cause I don't have a boyfriend and I wouldn't wanna be having sex with random people. Masturbating is NOT a sin, there is nothing to feel ashamed of. It wasn't stated in the Bible or anywhere that pleasuring yourself is a sin. Masturbate all you want and then get busy! Read, dance, sing, eat, go shopping, hang out with friends, watch horror movies, ANYTHING! Hope I helped.|||God, most people answers are so stupid. I'm a 16 year old boy and my friends that are girls, even the ones that look so innocent and play sports and stuff say that they secretly are horny all the time. But they dont say that cuz then they can't tease boys. Just my opinion. If u tease boys and you are hot u will get alot better guys. Trust me, when I no a girl would do stuff with me, it's no longer fun. So it's best to keep that stuff privite. Oh and masturbate all u want and don't tell people. If your girlfriends no you do and they dont and think it's gross... They will tell everyone. Hope this helped|||Yeah you need to not be reducing your sex drive by any means except by masturbating. It is not a sin because if you do not release that sexual tension you could develop cancer. Would you worship a God that plagued you with cancer when the cure is so easy and feels so damn good? No. Just play with yourself It's ok and it's natural. If you do not, it will consume you...|||Make a resolve that you are not going to like do it only 1 times a week and make it a point to follow it.
Gradually get rid of it altogether.|||Keep your self busy, during boredom times this will make you think of doing masturbating. So you can kill boredom by doing something that you can feel your happy on it. Like Sports! :)|||My only suggestion is to masturbate more. Don't let your christian family make you think it's sinning! *Christ died for your sins anyways, you aren't going to hell* Anyways happy pleasures ;)|||Excercise a lot it gets rid of excess energy and keeps you from being bored so your mind doesn't wander.

How long after unprotected sex do you have to wait to take a pregnancy test?
The last time my ex and I had sex, before I found out he has been seeing someone else for 8 months, was Saturday, July 31st. I don't have regular periods and haven't since I was a teenager/before I had my 18 month old daughter. Thanks.|||usually 10 to 14 days you can say around 2 weeks|||Well its hard to know when you have irregular periods, but if you count 28 days after your most recent period began, that should tell you when your next one is due, roughly. buut they reckon you should do it the day before your period is due. Or any time after that. the way it works is it picks up the hormonal change in your pee. :) But don't forget that they can lie about a negitive but not a positive.|||Wait until 28 days from your last period. Use an early result test if your not too sure, they detect the hcg hormone very early. I used one and found out I was pregnant 6 days before I missed my period and I didnt even use my first morning urine.
How if women during the Renaissance were not allowed to have sex out of marriage, were men allowed to have sex
the man could have sex with anyone, but the women would not be able to have sex with him since she must stay have sex during a marriage.
This does not make any sense!|||Perhaps the woman that a husband was having sex with wasn't married herself.|||Erm, didnt anyone think of the most obvious thing. The men just bummed each other... duh?
|||It makes perfect sense.|||Well, of course, it makes sense! This could be arranged. The men would simply have sex with prostitutes, courtesans, and mistresses. And the married women would have sex only with their husbands.|||Easy- haven't you ever heard people refer to prostitution as the "world's oldest profession?" The dudes went to Renaissance hookers, or sometimes there were just peasant women, widows and such, who didn't mind tossing a freebie to noble dudes like knights and such.|||yeah, the women only had sex with their husbands and the men only had sex with women.
ha ha|||Most normal people were to busy trying to survive in these times, let alone have affairs. It was just the upper class who did this sort of thing and well I suppose they still do it today, so nothing has changed.|||Put simply, waaaaaaay back all firmly believed women were a walking sin because of Eve. Therefore they were controlled and told they had to repent, while the men just did as they pleased.
Sad but true.|||1) Even back in the Renaissance, there were unmarried women.
2) The married women didn't obey the rules!|||Prostitution was one way. There were a lot of courtesans back then, for the upper class guys, and your regular streetwalkers for the lower class ones. If you, a woman, didn't have a husband or a father, then your employment options were pretty much limited to servant or prostitute. Also, people don't always do what they're supposed to. Some married women would have affairs, and some unmarried women would have sex without getting paid for it. Of course, the women who did have sex outside of marriage were scandalous at best. Courtesans were blamed for plagues, and unmarried nonvirginal women were outcasts. Getting caught or making a living out of it wasn't exactly fun, but women did do it.|||Most of the historical records we have from the Renaissance come from a specific socioeconomic class - the Patricians or quasi-aristocracy. This is where we get our understanding of the social mores of the Renaissance. In the Patrician class women were powerless outside the home, and had severe restrictions imposed on their associations and their movements.
However, the majority of the population, who were at best semi-literate, left few records of their social life. We can assume from tax records of the time that there was a large population that did not operate according to the same social rules of the Patricians. In this class, women worked by neccessity and therefore had to have some freedom. They were not restricted by the constraints on their upperclass counterparts.
As many posters have written, prostitution was widespread during this time and this would have provided men with opportunities to partake in unmarried sex; indeed, in Renaissance Venice brothels were regulated by the government.
With the expenses of marrying off a daughter (the crippling dowry, the ceremony etc) many Patrician fathers who had several daughters chose to send the daughters they could not afford to marry off to the convent to become nuns. Unwilling young girls in such a closed environment were soon exploited and there are many historical accounts of convents being set up as brothels!

How safe is having sex without a condom if my girlfriend is on the pill?
My girlfriend is on the pill and I know both of us are clean. She doesn't smoke and is very very careful about taking it everyday, and at the same time everyday too. It's so much better without a condom but I know the pill isn't 100%. How safe is it for us to have sex without a condom?|||Well the pill is 97 to 99% Effective if used right. so as long as she is taking it right and you know for sure she doesn't have an STD then there's a 1 to about 3% chances of her getting pregnant but using a condom is still a good idea because if she ever missed a pill and didn't think twice about it you and doesn't tell you and you have unprotected sex you have a grater chance of knocking her up. Just take care of your end and wrap it up and if pleasure is a problem just know that there's thing out there to help that if you know what i mean and you last longer when you use a condom.|||i understand where you`re coming from because sex does feel more pleasurable without a condom, but me and my girlfriend have come across a new type of condom that feels better for me and provides desired lubrication for her its by trojan and it is called, if i am not mistaken, ecstacy i would highly recomend you try this out because with ecstacy sex is more enjoyable and completely safe. oh and ~P.S~ if birth control is 93% to 99% effective the more you have unproted sex the more likely it is that she will get pregnant|||It depends on *which* pill, but they are typically between 95 and 99 % effective. Note that effectiveness of contraceptives is not *per screw*, but per year of regular screwing. In other words, after a year of regular sex, you can be 95 to 99 % sure not to be pregnant. To up those numbers to the high 99s, use a secondary method as well, such as an IUD or sponge.|||Not nearly as safe as using a condom anyway.
It's worth it in the end. Saves you from having a kid that you don't want.
IF the pill fails, the condom shouldn't (or rather, isn't likely to).
It'd also be good to keep an Emergency Contraceptive Pill (aka the morning after pill) in the cabinet somewhere in your place.

Why do people say sex works to help labor start?
If that were true then how do they explain people who have sex through out their entire pregnancy?
Wouldn't it cause pre-term labor?
Also for all the other things like teas, wouldn't that mean it would cause early labor too?

How soon after unprotected sex can you do a pregnancy test?
I am on the pill and im due for my 7 day break from Saturday (which means my period should be due sometime in that week) If i have had sex recently (whilst on antibiotics so pill doesnt protect) how soon can i do a pregnancy test?|||You can usually do a test 3 days before a missed period however there are some variables that may make it inaccurate that early. The first is that the test measures the amount of HcG in you urine and some woman have less then others so it may not be positive until later. It also depends on the test some are more sensitive then others and will detect it sooner. If you can afford it I would do one early and if it's negative I would test again the day you miss your period and then again 3-4 days after to be sure. If you can't afford multiple pregnancy tests than you will want to wait until after 3-4 days to be absolutely positive.|||Within 12 Hours...
|||so i see this was 1 year ago... Did you get pregnant?
|||i waited 4 days after i missed my period. i know it's hard to wait but just go about things in a normal way and try to forget about it for now until about 4 days after you were supposed to start. then take a test and you can almost trust the answer will be 100% accurate. and it's better to do it with a full bladder. And another way to make sure it's accurate is to wait a second or two after you start peeing and then pee on the test and stop peeing on it right before you completely stop peeing. i know it seems very technical but it's the best way i could describe it. lol. good luck.|||If you don't get your period by the end of next week when you're supposed to, take a test.

What do sex education classes really teach?
I have a cousin who's about 16 and he told me that in sex education class, it teaches you methods to abstain from sex. He said that the class actually teaches you to masturbate as one of the ways to abstain from sex until you actually mature enough to understand the practice. Is this true, or is my he just telling me to do something I shouldn't?|||Your cousin is probably right. He was probably taught that masturbation is a normal thing and that everyone does it. He was probably taught it's better to do that rather than have sexual intercourse.

She will eventually come around, if not try other things for a while that might not necessarily involve intercourse if that's the problem. |||First of all she may need to go to the doctor.

How do you reduce sex drive in teenage girls?
I am fifteen, and all I have ever done is make out %26amp; kinda a mini hand job with a boy i use to date but I am horny like every single day. Masturbating feels like I am sinning so I don't know how to decrease my sex drive!|||Don't listen to BrownGuy! He's an ignorant person. Anyway honey, I'm 16 soon to be 17 in a month and I'm horny everyday too! But I had sex for the first time in December and since then all I can do it push those thoughts outta my mind when I'm losing it. You can't decrease your sex drive, you can only get yourself busy to forget about sex. I masturbate from time to time, 'cause I don't have a boyfriend and I wouldn't wanna be having sex with random people. Masturbating is NOT a sin, there is nothing to feel ashamed of. It wasn't stated in the Bible or anywhere that pleasuring yourself is a sin. Masturbate all you want and then get busy! Read, dance, sing, eat, go shopping, hang out with friends, watch horror movies, ANYTHING! Hope I helped.|||God, most people answers are so stupid. I'm a 16 year old boy and my friends that are girls, even the ones that look so innocent and play sports and stuff say that they secretly are horny all the time. But they dont say that cuz then they can't tease boys. Just my opinion. If u tease boys and you are hot u will get alot better guys. Trust me, when I no a girl would do stuff with me, it's no longer fun. So it's best to keep that stuff privite. Oh and masturbate all u want and don't tell people. If your girlfriends no you do and they dont and think it's gross... They will tell everyone. Hope this helped|||Yeah you need to not be reducing your sex drive by any means except by masturbating. It is not a sin because if you do not release that sexual tension you could develop cancer. Would you worship a God that plagued you with cancer when the cure is so easy and feels so damn good?

How long after having sex do you wait to take a pregnancy test?
Me and my husband want to have a baby, we just had sex, how long do we wait to take a test?|||The acronym in the 'Trying to Concieve' or 'TTC' community is 'TWW'. That stands for 'Two Week Wait'. The reason for this acronym is because the earliest the majority of women can test %26amp; get an accurate result is two weeks.
The reason being this : Ovulation occurs, typically, between days 11 %26amp; 17 of your cycle. The first day you started spotting/bleeding being counted as the first. After ovulation *%26amp;* fertilisation it can take anywhere from 5-12 days for implantation to occur, and for a woman to actually become pregnant. Until implantation occurs you are *not*, in fact, pregnant. After implantation occurs it takes about a week and a half for the hCG to build up enough in your system to be detected by a pregnancy test.
A THING TO REMEMBER : The *only* first 'real' pregnancy symptom is a missed period. 'Early pregnancy symptoms', as in before your missed period, are too closely mimicked by PMS symptoms. Most women will only notice symptoms because they are just now paying attention when they are TTC or worried that they are pregnant. Women the majority of the time will experience breast swelling/tenderness, moodiness, slight changes in appetite, sluggishness, gassiness, etc etc simply from the hormonal shifts right before they start their period. However, these changes will be so slight that they won't notice them at all until they are paying close attention (Usually when TTC or worried that they may be pregnant). The second they do start paying close attention they notice all these things and take them as concrete proof they are pregnant when they've been occuring all along. This only makes them worse. Getting worked up over or stressed out over these tiny changes only turns the tiny changes into bigger ones, and makes them think it's further proof. Hormones are tricky like that.
Also, when the test reads 'five days before your missed period' it does *NOT* mean if your period is due on the 6th you can take the test on the 1st with total certainty that it will be completely accurate. The reason being that the '5 days sooner' tests are sensitive, but can still miss scant amounts. They actually mean that if your period is due on the 6th then your 'missed period' doesn't actually start until the 7th. Meaning, of course, that the soonest you could test is the 2nd. However, since each woman is different, and even the 'five day sooner' tests point out that their accuracy is usually in the 60%'s or lower that far away from your period your safest alternative is to just wait until after the day you expect your period. This will cut down on any 'did I test too soon' worries.
If you get your BFP (Big Fat Positive) then you will want to do a confirmation test the next morning or you can just 'hold it' for 8 hours without taking in extra liquids. The reason the tests say with your 'first morning urine' is because you are expected to be asleep 8 hours without diluting the hormones in your urine by drinking more liquids. The less diluted your urine the more accurate the test. So, if you use the restroom at noon, and don't drink any excessive liquids or use the restroom again until 8pm that evening then the test is just as accurate as with your first morning urine. However, it's harder to 'hold it' that long while awake and thinking about it. And, it can get a little more dicey to 'hold it' without feeling like you are going to burst since, of course, you are awake and will likely want something to drink.
Just be sure to always take a confirmation test, and if it is positive have it backed up by a doctors blood test.
Remember the key rules : Don't bother looking at the test after 10 minutes. It will give you the result in that time frame. Anything past the 10 minutes will only lead to confusion.
The result should be clearly evident without taking the test apart and without using a ton of lighting like a flashlight or turning it this way or that.
It should also be visible to a second person as eyes play tricks on us, and a second opinion always helps.
It is *definately* better to use a pink dye test. The blue dye tests are renowed for their false positives, and evaporation lines tend to look a little blue so they are read as positive when they are not. Whereas, a pink dye's evaporation line will still look gray or blue and not the obvious pink that it should be.
*~~*Best Wishes and Baby Dust*~~*|||It will be too early even after you miss your next period. Wait for a month more. Take the test in a morning with your first urine. Leave off the first few ounces. the second spell will do. but you can consider it positive even after the first missed period without a test but more importantly it should last at least till the third month.Good luck.|||I think the rules are at least 19 days from the conception date.

How safe is having sex without a condom if my girlfriend is on the pill?
My girlfriend is on the pill and I know both of us are clean. She doesn't smoke and is very very careful about taking it everyday, and at the same time everyday too. It's so much better without a condom but I know the pill isn't 100%. How safe is it for us to have sex without a condom?|||you can never be too safe, trust me. Use the condom.|||not that safe dude....make sure you always ALWAYS wrap it up because you'll never know what will happen and next thing you know you will be busy with a child and have no time for yourself. you can never be too safe about things. i have friends and know girls that have sex alot and didnt get pregnant until the got on birth control and those girls no longer have themselves to worry about but a child. one of the girls was a freshman and she is now a senior if she havent dropped out . so unless your willing to take on the responsibility if something goes wrong. WEAR A CONDOM. just cuz she's on it mean go raw. its more like a safety net. if the condom breaks or slips or watever, theres dat birth control blockin your sperm from fertilizing her.lol. so just be safe about thing and enjoy your life:)|||Always use the condom its the best way. You can never be too safe. Trust me sometimes females can trick you into doing it without the condom and you can end up having a baby. But if you want to actually have sex without the condom get the "there's nothing on" condom and tell me if they feel the same.|||birth control is pretty effective, i think it's like 98%. If you do it once in a while your probably be fine. I was on the pill and had sex A LOT and never got pregnant. But you never know, i know people who have gotten pregnant. i guess the question is, is it really worth the risk|||If you aren't ready for a kid then wear a condom, it's a small price to pay because you never be TOO careful. A lot of women get pregnant on birth control, 2 girls I know now are...shoot I got pregnant with a condom that didn't tear..sh!t happens.|||The pill is 98% effective, but it`s always better to be safe than sorry. You have to ask yourself if you would you be ready to deal with the consequences if you fell into that 2%.|||Use the condom. The pill isn't perfect even if she takes it perfectly, and that's almost impossible.|||i am pregnant now and i was on the pill .|||i got pregnant on the pill.|||Its a 50-50 shot|||I would not chance it, if you are not ready to be a dad
What makes sex soo important?is sex really that great or is it overrated?
All people talk about is sex as if its soo fantastic and great. But when I lost my virginity it was nothing speacial. What's the big deal? Does sex really change things? Do some people really feel a connection or is all the romantic, lovey dovey stuff made up or exaggerated?|||You've never has sex. That's o.k.|||I know what you mean, after the first time I had sex I wondered why I'd wanted to do it in the first place, but if you haven't had sex since your first time you should not let that discourage you to keep doing it ( mind you, protected, and and all other precautions) Because it's not gonna be that great the first time, guys don't have hymens. I would say after you get the hang of it and figure out what pleases you is when you'll start to really enjoy it.
For the lovey dovey stuff, it's not really needed. Unless we're talking about casual sex, it varies from one relationship to another. Remember this; sex is an extension of a relationship. So if you're a cutesy, powderpuff couple, that's what the sex will be like. If you're a tough and rough couple, that's what the sex may be like, If you're a low maintenance couple, same thing. Although remember, like all people, it's not all set in stone, you can have couples that are al sweet and flowery but like to be super dirty behind closed doors and vice versa.
For your question on connections, it's not all romance, it's not easy to find someone you're emotionally compatible with, but people you get chemistry with are easier to find for the most part. So there may be times when you are attracted to someone but not interested in dating, or date and have not-so-great sex with.
And once again, don't worry, once you have sex more often you will learn what you enjoy, masturbating can help with it too.|||No shes not obviously a virgin. I felt the same lack of awesomeness when I first had sex. The difference is having sex with someone that you like alot. Love perhaps. Someone that you feel comfortable with and know likes you back. Once you get that initial awesomeness of sex, you can go and have random sex and that will be good for you too haha.
Depends on you also. I mean, if you don't think sex is a big deal then its not going to be. If you allow yourself to love it then you will also.|||Sex is very overrated. Some of us actually have more fun than sex. I've done many things that were more fun and pleasurable than sex. Although physically, sex is the maximum pleasure. But yes, if you have an emotional/romantic connection the sex is better. Especially if it's with an extremely hot person and they feel the same towards you. I've had sex many times and it's nothing special. I really only did it for them, not so much for me. But to make it better, you gotta know how to have great sex. The key of course is a 2-parter. 1) Communication, 2) Openness to try new things for your partner. Msot of the time, you just need to tease them, get teased, and build it up yourself to a great orgasm.
But in general? It's only as amazing as you want it to be :p So if you only have sex once every 10 years dont let people make fun of you get you down, ignore them, they chose to pretend sex is something special, while you see it for what it is. A physical, sometimes emotional, release.|||the problem is you just 'lost it', you 'just had sex' it was no big deal, but if you ever sex with someone you really love, some your really intimate with, someone who you know inside out and someone who knows what pleases you, sex will be an experience you'd never though you'd have; if you have the right partner they'll take you to depths you've never been before; but until that time its just sex. I'm guessing your quite young and when your young no one has the best sex. People just want to lose their virginity, get laid, have sex, satisfy themselves, a lot of teenage boys are selfish and are having sex for them and not for you both. You'll experience real love one day and understand|||You don't have a high sex drive, that's it.
The big deal is that it's one of the most natural, interactive things and feels wonderful. Sex can change thing by deepening your relationship with someone. Once you've seen them naked, things are just different (for better or worse). People do feel a connection, I know I do. When me and my guy have intimate sex (not quickies), it just feels amazing mentally and physically. He'll hold my hand, kiss my neck, and just hold my body like it's his most prized possession (sounds corny, I know). Makes me feel closer to him.|||There is a huge difference between "having sex" and "making love". I suspect you are rather inexperienced, so trust me, it does get better. Much better. The act of making love is a very special sharing of two people who love each other, who try to give as much pleasure to their partner as possible. The act of just having sex, is akin to 2 wild animals rutting in the woods. This, too, can be quite pleasurable, so try not to judge it so harshly until you've got more experience.|||It depends with the person. Sex when I lost my virginity wasn't all that great and it was pretty short and bland, but now i love it, just because there's a level of openness and excitement and adventure and understanding which goes on.|||Sex is not that important, It is the affair or the Love of both intellectual. Yes, Sex is needed in order to survive or to reproduce another human being. But emotion is also a big factor of having a Sex.|||hey...cool down its not hat way as u r taking it...dn think sex just as a lost of virginity...or else...sex is meeting of 2 souls at 1 place....its fact...and its not that imp then life as love ...SO IN LOVE U CAN HAVE SEX BUT IN SEX U MAY NOT HAVE LOVE|||you have a child...you know the answer.

How do I initiate sex instead of asking my husband for it?
I am a very quiet shy person in general, especially when it comes to sex. I don't like to initiate things a lot, but when I do, I generally ask my husband for sex. My husband and I have talked about it and he wants me to be more aggressive and initiate sex instead of asking.
How do I do that? How do I initiate sex instead of asking my husband for it? Any advice? Thanks.|||Be playful. Think outside the bedroom. Next time you take a shower, wear just the towel around the house for a while. See how long it takes before he pulls it off. My wife wears just a Tshirt that comes to mid butt. (drives me crazy) cook breakfast in just panties on a day that he goes to work (or golfing, fishing, etc). He will think about that all day. On a day when he is home, do the same, then sit on his lap and feed him his breakfast. Snuggle up on the couch when he is watching TV, then start unbuttoning something on you or on him. Have a naked video night where you both sit naked on the couch, popcorn and drinks, and watch something you like (doesn't have to be porn). Have naked breakfast on Saturday mornings. Don't forget car sex. Scout out a place when you are alone, then one night when you are driving home, say, "Turn here." and guide him to the spot.. Pull out some battery powered candles for the dashboard. We had a book called "101 sexual positions" and a jar with pieces of paper numbered 1 to 101. We would pick a number and try that position.|||just wear see through bra and undie. make sure your boobs are popping out of your bra. serve him food and make sure you just expose it. then sit on his lap and start undressing.slowly undress him. i'm sure he'l be horny by then.get close to his private part and rub your pussy on his thing. trust me
|||he'l **** you like ever before. tell him to rub your labia and lick your ****. ride his dick and you both'l *** like crazy then.
|||ya not to forget suck on his dick.play with his balls as well. **** him nicely.have a lovely ****
|||Let's face it: The main reason women don't initiate sex is because they don't have to. They know that you'll let them know when you want it, at which point they can decide whether or not they want to comply. After all, if you're always the one asking for it, why would she even bother?
What to do: This is going to require some self-control on your part, but if you can pull it off, it's well worth it. If you usually have sex a couple of times a week, chances are that she expects that amount of intercourse. So, for a period of one week, tease her subtly by giving her long, passionate kisses, sensual massages or caressing her softly while you're watching a movie, and when you feel that she's getting turned on, slowly pull away and continue whatever you were doing in a non-sexual manner. A week of this will drive her up the wall, and she will be all over you by Saturday night.|||I am shy also, but le tme tell you- you have nothing to be shy about when it comes to giving your husband some. They won't laugh or tease or do anything to make you feel embarrassed if they think they are going to get some. It is every guys dream to have their woman get into bed and initaite it. You can be as subtle as starting with a massge or just plain jumping on him, doesn't matter, no matter what it will drive him wild. Have fun :)|||When he gets home from work say nothing but do kiss him hello. Lead him sit on the couch and then perform oral sex on him. Do this until he orgasms. Then stand up and leave. Okay...maybe a small sly smile afterwords but that is all.
Aggressiveness is not always about words. Sometimes it is about attitude.|||You ask your husband how he wants it.
Be creative, wear a mask n black lingerie, be someone else or simply tell him you need sex.
If he wants drama, start removing his clothes n say you been waiting your whole life for his love.|||buy a pole for the living room...it worked for me :) I recommend the "x-pole"...|||start out with a back rub.......
a massage with a little play is all you need.....|||if he want's you to be aggressive about it just reach down and grab it.
or strip naked, actions do speak louder then words. maybe strip him down too!|||If you unzip his zipper and put it in your mouth, I guarantee you'll straighten that boy out.|||dress sexy and jump in top of him, he will get the point.
