Question:
Hi, I am an American male living in China and I fell in love with a Chinese girl but we have a problem. I have a larger than normal penis and she is smaller than normal. She is only about four feet 10 inches tall. She is 19 and was a virgin when we met. We have made love many times and are considering marraige. We have been making love about once a week for about six months. Our worry is that she often has pain because I am too large during intercourse but she insists on making love because I enjoy it. She does not enjoy sex very much. We are worried that if we were married and had sex often that I would damage her. I could not live with myself if I caused her permanent damage. Our question is, will her body adjust in time, or will she be damaged by more sex? Thank you for your help. J.G.

The very first thing that you and your girlfriend need to do is to go together to a knowledgable gynecologist or nurse practitioner. They can assure you regarding the normalcy of your partner's vaginal length and width. mant women who have pain with intercourse "assume" that its because of their partner's size and it may be something totally different. Remember that women are 'designed" to deliver 7-9 lb. babies through their vaginas...At any rate, until you two are checked out, I recommend alternating intercourse with other nonpenetrative activities that are aimed at pleasing her so that you can both enjoy physical intimacy. Good luck.
