ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Lesbian sexual practices

Okay, so you know how when a man and a woman like each other, they might kiss and hug and sometimes have sex? Well, sometimes when two girls like each other in a special way, they can do those things too!

Girls have different ways they can have sex together, just like boys and girls have different ways they can have sex. Some girls might kiss each other and touch each other's bodies in a special way that feels good. They might use their hands or their mouths to touch or lick different parts of their partner's body, like their breasts or private parts.

Other girls might use toys or special objects to help them have sex. Sometimes they might use a strap-on, which is a toy that looks like a penis and goes over one of the girl's private parts so she can use it to have sex with her partner. They might also use vibrators or dildos, which are toys that can vibrate or be inserted into the body for pleasure.

It's important to remember that whatever two people do when they have sex, it should always be something that they both want to do and feel comfortable with. And no matter who we love or how we have sex, it's always important to be safe and protect ourselves from diseases or unwanted pregnancy.
