Period Sex: Great, Not Gross, Says This Guy
CLEO Singapore|October 2017

Joe DeMarini makes the case for having sex when you’ve got your period (and why your guy should be into it too)...

Joe DeMarini
Period Sex: Great, Not Gross, Says This Guy

As my Italian friend once said, “a good captain can sail the red sea.” He’s absolutely right. If either you or your man feel faint from a few drops of blood, that’s one thing, but it’s high time the “gross” factor was removed from the discussion of period sex. It’s a natural process and, honestly, sex is already messy. So, allow me to make my case:

You want it

Women typically have heightened libidos right before and during their periods, and there’s no reason to let a little blood (30 to 40 millilitres over several days, on average) get in the way of some stellar sexy times. Your period hasn’t stopped you from doing anything else, has it? That insatiable desire makes it a great opportunity to bust out some of those kinks you’ve been wondering about, too, and he’d be crazy to turn down the chance to try something new.

He totally digs it
