    Hi ladies. I came across an excellent article:

    http://www.yourtango.com/experts/natasha-burton-meagan-mccrary-and-julie-fishman/when-sex-hurts

    Excerpts include:

    “In my dating guide The Little Black Book of Big Red Flags http://www.amazon.com/Little-Black-Book-Big-Flags/dp/1440512655 Red-Flag Rule #21 states: A guy should never say, “It’s all in your head,” when you tell him that you need to stop during sex because it hurts.

    Bottom Line: The man you are choosing to share your body with should be concerned for your comfort, and he most definitely should be interested in your pleasure. Whether he’s too aggressive, disrespectful or coerces you into doing things you don’t want to do, he has forgotten one thing: having sex with you is a privilege.”

    I encourage you to read the article and welcome your comments and feedback here.
