Stage Two

Sex
  1. Keep to the ban on intercourse, but gradually include lightly touching the sexual area as part of the whole body, not something to pay special attention to. This will mean that there are no ‘no go’ areas.
  2. While you continue as before, you can touch the sexual area to give pleasure, but not to aim for orgasm.
  3. Some people like to include a phase of masturbation to orgasm, either together or on each other. Some people don’t want to do that. You can choose.

When you feel ready, go on to Stage Three
