Dear Karinna,
I was just wondering how to slow myself down when having sex. My boyfriend says while having sex with him it seems like I am “looking for punishment.” He wants to slow things down. How do I do that?

Dear Karinna,
I’ve always been very selective with the partners I’ve had in my life and really have experienced the best sex that transports you to that Zen state, but I was wondering if a relationship ever be too sexually charged– too intense?

Dear Karinna,
I am 46 years old and need to know how to make love to a man. I was married for 26 years and never kissed or made love. He used to just roll me over and that was it. Now he’s deserted us and the man I’m involved with says he wants [...]
Dear Karinna,
My wife says that for her the idea of Tantra lovemaking, bringing her to a high level of sexual arousal and then coming down just a little and then going back up again, doesn’t work for her. She wants it fast, quick, and over with. What can I do to [...]
