Jade Zwane from City Press answers reader's uncomfortable sex questions.
Q: Can I fall pregnant from pre-cum? My boyfriend suggested we use the pull-out method and I wanted your opinion.
A: The function of pre-ejaculate is to adjust the pH of the urethra from urine- to semen-friendly.
While the likelihood is slim, it’s still possible to fall pregnant as pre-ejaculate can contain sperm, even though low in concentration, or semen ejaculate directly after the pre-ejaculate can enter your vagina.
I advise against the pull-out method. Not only is it high risk for unplanned pregnancy, you’re not protected against sexually transmitted infections. Condoms are my recommendation. As nothing is 100% guaranteed, dual protection against pregnancy (using a condom and being on a contraceptive pill) wouldn’t be a bad idea.
Q: What are the chances of contracting something from oral sex?
A: Because of the exchange of bodily fluids, there’s a possibility of contracting sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and/or HIV. The possibility increases with cuts and sores on the lips, in the mouth and genitals. Condoms and dental dams reduce your risk.
Q: My girlfriend is 26 and she prefers anal sex, but she bleeds every time. Is it safe to continue?
A: In your case I suggest that your girlfriend listens to her body. Anal sex can lead to some bleeding, ample lubricant makes penetration easier and reduces the chances and/or severity of bleeding. If the bleeding is excessive, then I advise against it. Instead of anal-penile penetration, try anal beads and butt plugs as they may be smaller and less intrusive than a penis, but equally stimulating.

Cristiano Ronaldo comes through at perfect moment for Real Madrid

By
MADRID (AP) – It had been a quiet season for Cristiano Ronaldo. Until he faced Bayern Munich. He was being outshone by the likes of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar both in the Spanish league and in the Champions League. He hadn't been scoring a lot of goals and was even jeered at times by Real Madrid fans at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. But things quickly changed in two decisive games against Bayern Munich in the Champions League quarterfinals, when the star forward scored five goals to keep alive Madrid's hopes of retaining the trophy. Ronaldo had scored only two goals in the eight Champions League games he had played before the quarterfinals. He came into the series against Bayern in a scoring drought of nearly seven months in the European tournament, and had scored only once in his last five Madrid games in all competitions. In the Spanish league, Ronaldo's 19 goals leave him five behind Suarez and 10 behind Messi. But Ronaldo knew things were ...
