What College Women Do and Do Not Experience As Rape
Psychology of Women Quarterly, 28 (2004), 9–15. Blackwell Publishing. Printed in the USA. Copyright C 2004 Division 35, American Psychological Association. 0361-6843/04 2003 CAROLYN SHERIF AWARD ADDRESS: WHAT COLLEGE WOMEN DO AND DO NOT EXPERIENCE AS RAPE Arnold S. Kahn James Madison University College women who did (n = 33) and did not (n = 56) label their sexual assault experience as rape provided written descriptions of their sexual assaults. From these descriptions we identified eight different sexual assault situations. Women who labeled their experience as rape were most likely to have been assaulted forcefully by an acquaintance, awakened to an acquaintance performing sexual acts on them, or experienced the assault as a child. Women were least likely to call their experience rape if they submitted to a whining, begging boyfriend, gave in to a man because of being emotionally needy, were assaulted by a boyfriend, were severely impaired by alcohol or drugs and unable to resist, or were forced to engage in oral or digital sex. Observers who read these descriptions generally agreed with the victims regarding whether or not the experience constituted rape, although they could not agree on whether or not forced oral or digital intercourse or forced intercourse by a boyfriend constituted rape. Since 1989, together with my colleagues and students, I enced acts that seemed to fit the legal definition of rape, but have conducted research on rape and sexual assault. One who did not conceive of themselves as victims or survivors of particular stream of this research has focused on what de- rape.

Semen Arousal: Its Prevalence, Relationship to HIV Risk Practices
C S & lini ID ca A l f R o e l s Klein, J AIDS Clin Res 2016, 7:2 a e Journal of n a r r DOI: 10.4172/2155-6113.1000546 c u h o J ISSN: 2155-6113 AIDS & Clinical Research Research Article Open Access Semen Arousal: Its Prevalence, Relationship to HIV Risk Practices, and Predictors among Men Using the Internet to Find Male Partners for Unprotected Sex Hugh Klein* Kensington Research Institute, USA Abstract Purpose: This paper examines the extent to which men who use the Internet to find other men for unprotected sex are aroused by semen. It also looks at the relationship between semen arousal and involvement in HIV risk practices, and the factors associated with higher levels of semen arousal. Methods: 332 men who used any of 16 websites targeting unprotected sex completed 90-minute telephone interviews. Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected. A random sampling strategy was used. Semen arousal was assessed by four questions asking men how much they were turned on by the way that semen smelled, tasted, looked, and felt. Results: 65.1% of the men found at least one sensory aspect of semen to be “fairly” or “very” arousing, compared to 10.2% being “not very” or “not at all” aroused by all four sensory aspects of semen. Multivariate analysis revealed that semen arousal was related to greater involvement in HIV risk practices, even when the impact of other salient factors such as demographic characteristics, HIV serostatus, and psychological functioning was taken into account. Five factors were found to underlie greater levels of semen arousal: not being African American, self-identification as a sexual “bottom,” being better educated, being HIV-positive, and being more depressed.

INTRODUCTION John, a high school freshman, walked down the corridor, passed several classrooms, and entered the boys' restroom on a Friday afternoon. He fished into his pocket for a few quarters, inserted them into the vending machine, and pulled out a con- dom. As he completed the transaction, he reminded himself of how glad he was that his parents did not know how he spends his extra lunch money. He knew he'd still have to concoct another story for when they'd ask him where he was going that night, but he quickly assured himself that he'd have plenty of time to think of something.

Spotlight On… Condoms
SPOTLIGHT ON… CONDOMS Key information for educators to support young people with using condoms This session will explore what condoms do, how to use them correctly and how to challenge some barriers to using condoms. It would be helpful to present a visual demonstration of how to use to a condom correctly. If you do not have a condom demonstrator, you can use any similar shaped object. Be mindful that young people may perceive the size of the demonstrator/object you use to be an accurate reflection so its important to explore that penis’s come in different sizes and shapes. Condoms as a barrier method to prevent pregnancy and help prevent Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) from being passed from one person to another. Although they are not 100% guaranteed, when used correctly condoms are extremely effective which means knowing how to use a condom correctly is important. Young people should be encouraged to practice using condoms on their own and finding which condom best suits them before becoming sexually active, as familiarising use of condoms will help to improve self efficacy. Regardless of gender, everyone should know how to use condoms. How to use external condoms (including video) and Top tips for Success with condoms can be found www.letstalkaboutit.nhs.uk/ condoms. Activities • Activity 1: External Condom Check List—Number the steps in order Students are given the External Condom Check List Activity where the steps for using a external condom correctly have been jumbled up.

Oral Sex and HIV Risk
Oral Sex and HIV Risk CDC HIV/AIDS Facts June 2009 Oral Sex Is Not Risk Free Like all sexual activity, oral sex carries some risk of HIV transmission when one partner is known to be infected with HIV, when either partner’s HIV status is not known, and/or when one partner is not monogamous or injects drugs. Even though the risk of transmitting HIV through oral sex is much lower than that of anal or vaginal sex, numerous studies have demonstrated that oral sex can result in the transmission of HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Abstaining from oral, anal, and vaginal sex altogether or having sex only with a mutually monogamous, uninfected partner are the only ways that individuals can be completely protected from the sexual transmission of HIV. However, by using condoms or other barriers between the mouth and genitals, individuals can reduce their risk of contracting HIV or another STD through oral sex. Oral Sex is a Common Practice Oral sex involves giving or receiving oral stimulation (i.e., sucking or licking) to the penis, the vagina, and/or the anus. Fellatio is the technical term used to describe oral contact with the penis. Cunnilingus is the technical term which describes oral contact with the vagina. Anilingus (sometimes called “rimming”) refers to oral-anal contact. Studies indicate that oral sex is commonly practiced by sexually active male-female and same-gender couples of various ages, including adolescents. Although there are only limited national data about how often adolescents engage in oral sex, some data suggest that many adolescents who engage in oral sex do not consider it to be “sex;” therefore they may use oral sex as an option to experience sex while still, in their minds, remaining abstinent.

Erotica Menu: Ideas for Alternatives to Traditional
OHSU Program in Vulvar Health Erotica Menu Suggestions for Exploring Intimacy Without Pain Vulvar and vulvovaginal pain affect each woman and her sexuality differently. Some of you have not been able to feel or behave sexually for some time, and you may fear that you have lost your ability to do so. Part of your recovery from your pain is to (re)build your sexual and relationship confidence. We therefore encourage you to consider the kinds of relationship activities and ideas below as part of your treatment for your vulvar symptoms. Vaginal and penetrative intercourse is only one way of being sexual. And, although it is the behavior that most of us consider to be “having sex,” it is often not the most sexually gratifying activity for women. When you have vulvar pain, intercourse can become impossible. Although facing this can be difficult, it can also be an excellent opportunity for women and couples to find out what else they might like to do together that can help them to restore and/or maintain sexual and physical intimacy in their relationship. And for those of you not in relationships, it can be a time to learn a lot about what your own body enjoys and desires. In the spirit of exploration and pleasure enhancement for you and your partner (if you have one), we offer the following “menu.” Some of these activities are genitally/sexually focused, others are not. Please use them as guides and experiments. The list is not exhaustive and we encourage you to use the books, websites and other resources contained in these suggestions in order to further your own sexual research.

An Analysis of Gender Differences in Oral Sex Practices and Pleasure Ratings Among Heterosexual Canadian University Students
ARTICLE Was it good for you too?: An analysis of gender differences in oral sex practices and pleasure ratings among heterosexual Canadian university students Jessica R Wood,1 Alexander McKay,2 Tina Komarnicky,1 & Robin R Milhausen3 1 Department of Psychology, University of Guelph, Guelph, ON 2 Sex Information and Education Council of Canada (SIECCAN), Toronto, ON 3 Department of Family Relations and Applied Nutrition, University of Guelph, Guelph, ON Oral sex has become a standard component of the heterosexual sexual script, though little is known about the level of pleasure men and women experience from giving and receiving oral sex and the extent to which relationship context is associated with levels of pleasure. The purpose of this study was to investi- gate gender differences in giving and receiving oral sex, and associations with pleasure experienced and partner type. Participants were 899 heterosexual university students who reported on their sexual activities in their most recent sexual encounter in an online survey. Over two-thirds of participants reported that their last sexual encounter included giving and/or receiving oral sex. More women (59%) than men (52%) reported giving oral sex to their partner. More men (63%) than women (44%) reported receiving oral sex. Most men (73%) and women (69%) reported that receiving oral sex was ‘‘very pleasurable.’’ Though most participants rated giving oral sex as at least ‘‘somewhat pleasurable,’’ men were significantly more likely than women to report that giving oral sex was very pleasurable (52% vs. 28%). Overall, ratings of pleasure for giving oral sex were higher for men, but no gender differences were found for overall pleasure ratings of receiving oral sex.

Predicting Rape Events: the Influence of Intimate Partner Violence History, Condom Use
Predicting Rape Events: The Influence of Intimate Partner Violence History, Condom Use Resistance, and Heavy Drinking Natasha Katrine Gulati A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science University of Washington 2018 Committee: William H. George Mary Larimer Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Psychology Copyright 2018 Natasha Katrine Gulati University of Washington Abstract Predicting Rape Events: The Influence of Intimate Partner Violence History, Condom Use Resistance, and Heavy Drinking Natasha Katrine Gulati Chair of the Supervisory Committee: William H. George Department of Psychology Sexual aggression perpetration is a public health epidemic, and burgeoning research aims to delineate risk factors for individuals who perpetrate completed rape. The current study investigated physical and psychological intimate partner violence (IPV) history, coercive condom use resistance (CUR), and heavy episodic drinking (HED) as prospective risk factors for rape events. Young adult men (N = 430) ages 21-30 completed background measures as well as follow-up assessments regarding rape events perpetrated over the course of a three-month follow-up period. Negative binomial regression with log link function was utilized to examine whether these risk factors interacted to prospectively predict completed rape. There was a significant interaction between physical IPV and HED predicting completed rape; men with high HED and greater physical IPV histories perpetrated more completed rapes during follow-up. Moreover, psychological IPV and coercive CUR interacted to predict completed rape such that men with greater coercive CUR and psychological IPV histories perpetrated more completed rapes throughout the follow-up period. Findings suggest targets for intervention efforts and highlight the need to understand the topography of different forms of aggression perpetration.

Condom Game - Instructions
Condom Game - Instructions Using multiple decks of cards, break the participants into groups of 2-4 and ask them to put the cards in order. The smaller groups allow everyone to participate. The steps do not have an exact order, but some steps must come before others. Walk around the room as the groups are organizing their cards and offer assistance where you think it is needed. Give each group a wooden penis and condoms as you are walking around. Depending on the group, you may wish to hand out the wooden penises and condoms after they have completed ordering the cards to ensure they stay focused. Before you hand out wooden penises and condoms, be sure to ask if anyone has latex allergies. If a participant is allergic or sensitive to latex they should not touch the wooden penises or the latex condoms. You can bring non-latex condoms, as well as, flavoured condoms, internal condoms, gloves, dental dams and lube. An explanation of these is beneficial. Also beneficial is a demonstration of how an internal condom is inserted and how to make a dental dam out of a condom or glove, as well as a discussion about the types of lube that should and should not be used with condoms. When the participants are finished putting the cards in order ask one group to volunteer to read out the order of their cards. Have a discussion as this is happening about each step. Discussion points are listed below. Some cards have an arrow on the front. Flipping these cards over participants will find a scenario.
