Question
how bad does it hurt when you lose your virginity?

Answer
Hi Malorie,

You know....first time sex doesn't have to necessarily involve pain. Really. Not all women experience pain on their first time, especially if you make sure you are 100 % ready to have sex, when you have a great caring partner, when you use lube, are really relaxed, are really aroused before attempting intercourse (doing foreplay helps).
