Sex tips for men

What do you think of when you hear the words ‘sexual health’?

What do you need to know to keep your sex life hot and yourself healthy?

Many of us naturally worry about Sexually Transmitted Infections but good sexual health is more than just wearing condoms and getting your bits checked out regularly at the sexual health clinic - and something which is often overlooked is that sex should be fun!

The Lesbian & Gay Foundation wanted to produce a sexual health booklet for men that promotes the good things about sex in direct response to the many requests we have received for such a resource - and here it is...

Inspired by our own groundbreaking sexual health resources produced for lesbian & bisexual women, we asked gay and bisexual men for their most useful tips that they would like to pass on to other gay and bi men, and what they have learnt, through trial and error, that they wished they had known at the beginning of their sexual career.

Sex Tips aims to help gay and bisexual men gain confidence and be more comfortable about exploring our own sexuality -and that of our sexual partners.

Not everybody is going to like the same thing, but whether you've just come out or you've been around the block a few times there will be something here that you can use. There are plenty of gay sex self help books out there but this one is free and informed by regular guys, not an opinionated, over qualified, 'Doctor of Sexology' type. Sometimes we just aren’t very good at talking about the kind of sex we want.

Simple conversations around what you do or don’t enjoy will often lead to a more satisfying experience. After all if we don’t tell our men what we want from them, how can we expect them to know what we like?

Sex Tips for Men is the simple answer to some of the most frequently asked questions around sex and covers (almost) everything that two or more men can do together, and even what you can do alone!

If there is anything not featured in this guide that you would like answered why not get in touch we’d love to hear from you.Or maybe you'd like to share a few tips of your own!

If you would like copies of this resource just email us for more information. We'll need to know where you want them sending to and how many you'd like.
