As Iris was saying earlier, it doesn’t have to be the act of intercourse as well. If you both wanna achieve orgasm, there are other ways besides intercourse. Actually, intercourse doesn’t work that often, for women anyway, straight intercourse.

I know you’re stiff in the morning, but you do have more energy. And let’s, again, plan it.
