Most sex tips tend to focus on finding new or improved ways to make sex more enjoyable or more intense, although some may focus on secondary topics such as vaginal care or penis health. But sometimes guys can benefit from sex tips of another sort, namely knowing what certain sexual terms they hear being flung about actually mean. Most guys are too embarrassed to ask, afraid that will make them sound inexperienced or (heaven forbid) like a virgin.

The following guide to some of these sex terms should hopefully help clarify a few things for those who have been longing to know but were afraid to ask.

– Top/bottom. Starting off with a popular one, top and bottom generally refer to whether one performs anal sex on another man (top) or receives anal from another man (bottom). However, its use has spilled over from the gay world into the world of dominance and submission. In such cases, top refers to the dominant partner (whatever their sex and whether anal sex is involved or not) and bottom to the submissive partner (again, whatever their sex and whether anal sex is involved or not). Versatile, by the way, means one can switch between topping and bottoming.

– Pegging. As long as we’re on the subject of anal sex, pegging enables a person without a natural-born penis to assume the role of a top during sex. When a man (or woman) is pegged, it means that their partner has strapped on a dildo and is using it to engage in anal sex with that man or woman. In addition to the sheer pleasure afforded by anal sex, many straight couples value the way in which this allows each partner to have a different understanding of how sex feels to the other.

– Tea-bagging. Start with a visual: Picture the act of taking two tea bags and dunking them in and out of a cup of hot water. In sex, tea-bagging refers to a man dunking his balls in and out of a partner’s mouth.

– Spit-roast. This term refers to sex involving three people, in which one person (male or female) performs oral sex on another while receiving anal sex from the third. Usually (but by no means always) the one receiving oral sex and the one performing the anal sex are male; the one in the middle can be male or female.

– Facial. Referring to a man ejaculating on the face of another man or that of a woman, usually one who has been performing oral sex on the penis in question.

– Shrimping. Shrimping is a term for sexily sucking the toes of a partner, which is especially pleasing to individuals with a foot fetish.

– Rimming. A sex act that has become more and more popular in recent years, rimming is a form of anal sex in which one individual performs oral sex on the anus of the other. (It is highly recommended that the partner receiving the rimming thoroughly clean themselves in advance.) When a person rims a man while at the same time reaching around and masturbating his penis, they are said to be performing a rusty trombone.

– Water sports. This refers to basically any sexual activity in which urination is involved.

While sex tips and knowledge of terms are important, so is maintaining one’s penis health – and daily application of a first-rate penis health oil (health professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil, which is clinically proven mild and safe for skin) can be a big aid in attaining that goal. When selecting an oil, look for one that contains vitamin B5, also known as pantothenic acid. This vitamin is required for cell metabolism and the maintenance of healthy tissue. The chosen oil should also contain vitamin C, a key component of collagen, a tissue in the body that gives skin its tone and elasticity.
