I agree with everyone that talking, and slow exploration is definitely the best way to go about it. She's fine with a little petting, but anything below the waist is a no-no. I suppose I should rephrase my question: what is the best way to talk about it? How do you begin exploring without sounding like a pervert? Should I bring it up when we're both just hanging out chatting, or while making out? I'm worried that if I try to bring it up while we're making out (i.e. while she is getting excited), it'd be harder to have a rational conversation.
In other words, how exactly does one best talk about it? I still have a bit of a language barrier, otherwise I'd be reading mostly Japanese instead of coming to Fakku for side-by-side English/Japanese, so that's also a problem, that I'm working on overcoming. Also, Ziggy, when you were exploring, how did you guys start? She seems fine with upper-body exploration and petting, but anything lower-body to her screams "sex", sort of like an iron-curtain, not as much flexibility there.
Well, I was never afraid of sex. The difference between your girlfriend and myself is that I'm very curious about the human anatomy. Even today, I'll randomly ask the most weird and sometimes too personal questions to Fpod. Luckily he's gotten used to it and doesn't put much thought into why I'd ask such a question anymore and just answers it.
The reason I didn't want to be touched while I was a virgin was simply due to pure insecurity. I wasn't ready to let my first boyfriend lay eyes on my naked body yet.
How things started was simply my aggressiveness when it comes to sexual matters. We were sitting on a futon together, and I was exploring his lap to see what a penis would feel like, so I petted him through his pants. He asked me if I wanted him to take it out after I got to his boxers, and I said no. I think I just literally drove him nuts (not intentionally) because I wasn't sure I wanted to feel a guys junk directly. While I was petting him through his boxers he just had it 'slip out' and I still remember gasping at the sudden feeling of hot skin against my hand. But after the shock wore off I was able to continue playing more directly and exploring.
It's not a matter where you should sit down with your girlfriend and say "Okay, so I wanted to let you know that you can explore my body if you'd like." because that would most likely make her feel even more insecure. But if you're ever sitting together and petting does occur, try to take the submissive role and let her be in control. Or maybe give her a little shock like my ex gave me. While you're making out, take her hand and place it over your erection through your pants. Let her be aware of her actions. She'll gasp most likely but just keep your hand on hers to let her feel it. You could tell her it's alright and that she makes you feel nice. But after you think the shock is over on her, take your hand away and if she doesn't, good. Let her explore. If she does - well, you still made progress with her ;p
