How Do Lesbians Have Sex?

By Erin Sharpe

When I was younger, the question (“How do lesbians have sex?”) used to get under my skin. What they really mean to ask is: Without at least one penis, how is sex between two people even possible? Because think about it: No one asks, “How do gay men have sex?” It’s just this foregone conclusion that a penis enters something and boom: sex. (And for the record, not all gay men are into penetration, but that’s another piece for another day.)

Screen Shot 2015-02-10 at 10.00.33 PMIt wasn’t a valid question to the rebel in me. My typical response usually took a stab at the unimaginative sexual nature of the dubiously curious offender (“If you have to ask, you probably suck in bed”), but in later years, I opted for the much simpler: “We make each other cum over and over until we can barely form words, eek out a few more, then pass out.”

But that’s hardly an answer, is it? What people want are details and as far as I know, we don’t really talk about what gay chicks get up to when they get down. (That’s probably why people keep asking, come to think.) So for answers, the curious turn to lesbian porn which—I don’t need to tell you—is hardly ever good or even made for lesbians in the first place. (In other words, completely fake and boring for most people, but especially for lesbians.) What’s more, they produce the goofiest of material like the smash hit, “Strap-ons Every Time,” the feel-good powerhouse, “Long, Hot Pink Press-Ons,” and the cult classic, “Dykes Be Scissoring, Shawdy.”

But it’s a valid question to some. How do those penisless lesbians have sex? Sure, lesbians use their hands, faces, and sex toys…but that’s just third base to the rest of the world, so the question is, “How do lesbians get beyond third base?” Now we’re onto something. Gay guys can penetrate their partners with natural, feeling parts—and so can straight men—but what about lesbians?

The notion is certainly not new to a woman who’s spent her entire sex life enjoying other women, and frankly, it’s fun to keep the mystery alive.

The truth is, however, that women are equipped with just as many feel-good bits and thingamajigs that men are…(see anus and genitals)…but with the added bonus of majorly sensitive tits and—brace yourselves—the only organ in the human anatomy that exists solely for sexual pleasure (Google it).

If you’re a good lover—regardless of preference—you can see instantly how that adds up to a mesmerizing entanglement of nerves and more than a few ways to get off. Over and over. (And over.)

I think that’s why, when sympathy for the “limited” nature of lesbian sex presents itself in conversation, most of us say nothing as dirty/sexy images of what good lovers are capable of flash behind our eyes. But showboating is so gauche, you’ll agree.

So how do lesbians have sex? If they’re smart: well and often.
