Question:
My partner is still a virgin. We have tried to have sex a few times and were unable to. My penis is of average size but still won't fit. What can we do to have sex? Thank you.

Some people find a gentle stretching of the vaginal opening by her can help. Also, have you tried inserting a lubricated finger? This can also be useful in mimicking the insertion of the penis. Clearly, lubrication is going to be key. That generally develops with foreplay (touching and kissing around the genital area especially may help) that occurs before you attempt intercourse. If her lack of lubrication is an issue, perhaps she is not ready for intercourse and you would be wise to focus more on general pleasure and other ideas.... taking things slow - and not having pressure to perform will help a lot! Be patient. Bast wishes!
