Dear Getting GF Ready For Sex,
We don't think to just "stick it in" is the best policy. A woman will usually become lubricated when she is aroused. We suggest you spend some time kissing and touching before you start having sex. Her vagina will probably be wet by the time you want to start. If she is not producing enough of her own lubrication, this can be solved by using a store-bought lubricant, which you can put on your penis, or inside her, or both. If you are using a latex condom to help protect against pregnancy and STDs, you should make sure you use only water-based lubricants, as oil-based ones can break down the latex. You might also try using one with spermicide in it, for extra protection against pregnancy. For more information about safer sex, just click on the link.
No matter how wet she is, it may be a little painful for her to have her hymen broken. She may also bleed a little bit or a lot when this happens. You sound like a concerned partner, and we're glad to hear that. Just remember to go slow and communicate with each other.

Teens often abuse prescription drugs because of the myth that these drugs provide a medically safe high.
