Myths & Truths About Lesbian Sex

You've heard, and might have seen it all before, but what do you really know about sex between lesbians?
There are a lot of myths about what lesbian sex is and how it should be.

Unfortunately, the misinformation on what lesbian sex should look like mostly comes from movies and porn.

Newsflash: just because you saw it in a movie doesn't mean it actually exists.

Just to make things clear, there is no such thing as "Lesbian Sex" either. Sex is part of everyone's sexuality. It's just sex.

The first myth you're probably thinking of is penetration and that there is no sex unless penetration exists. False. Any person, regardless if they are a lesbian or not, may not believe penetration is part of sex. It all comes down to what that specific person likes.

Co-Founder of Everyone Is Gay, Kristin Russo, joins Melanie Cole, MS, to debunk all the myths you've heard about lesbian sex.
