Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and many couples like to take advantage of the season to engage in some extra sexual engagement. If a guy has been practicing good penis health, there’s no reason he can’t count on having an actively happy penis during the holiday. But the following sex tips, originally published here, can help ease the way for that special sex on Turkey Day.

Sex tips to consider

- Don’t get too stuffed. Sure, Thanksgiving is about giving thanks and seeing family, but it’s all built around a massive dinner. If a guy and his partner want to do some special sexual stuffing on their own, they need to make sure they don’t overdose on all the food that’s weighing down the table. Eating too much can make sex more difficult – and can even dampen one’s sex drive. With that in mind, the couple he intends to enjoy special sex after dinner will need to force themselves to exercise a little discipline. Smaller portions may be required, or taking just a tiny bite of those items that really fill a guy up.

- Or maybe make sex the appetizer. Of course, some people just can’t call up enough willpower to resist seconds (or thirds) of turkey and dressing and all those other goodies on the table. Couples who know this about themselves may want to plan on having sex before dinner. This can take some planning, of course, especially if one or both of you is involved in cooking and/or is hosting the dinner. For such people, scheduling some sex as soon as they arise from sleep may be the best bet.

- Consider different positions. Okay, so let’s say a couple thought they could hold off on overeating but found they were wrong. Missionary position may not be their best option with full tummies. Exploring alternate positions may be just the ticket. For the very stuffed, simply lying side by side and masturbating each other may be the best option. Or oral sex might be good, if both can stand putting one more thing in their mouths. For those interested in actual penetrative intercourse, a good bet is for the woman to lie face up on the edge of the bed, with her legs hanging down and touching the floor. The man can kneel (on top of pillows if height is needed) so that his soon-to-be happy penis is level with the vagina and his back straight up. In this position, neither distended stomach is coming in touch with the other.

- Get thematic. Make sex holiday-specific. Break the wishbone and the winner gets to choose what kind of sexual activity the pair will engage in. Bring leftovers to bed and enjoy licking cranberry sauce or gravy off of a partner’s privates. After properly sterilizing it, explore possible other uses for a turkey baster. Dress up as participants from the first Thanksgiving and see what fun can be had with feathers from a Native American headdress or a Pilgrim’s leather belt. Or each partner can simply take advantage of the holiday to communicate why they are thankful to be together with their partner and how much each means to the other.

These sex tips can help make for a happy penis on Thanksgiving. It will be even happier if a guy is a regular user of a first class penis health creme (health professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil, which is clinically proven mild and safe for skin). The best crème is going to include vitamin A among its ingredients, and that will make both the guy and his partner happy. Why? Because vitamin A’s antibacterial properties help to eliminate persistent penis odor. A man should also be thankful for a crème that includes vitamin D3, the so-called “miracle vitamin.” In addition to fighting disease, this vitamin also supports healthy penile cellular function.
