Lots of us still get a bit nervous and awkward when it comes to talking about sex.

Speaking openly about what happens in the bedroom is a big no no for some people, but this means there are some questions we never ask, and we can end up wondering and worrying about them for a very long time.

And not knowing the answer means some women are missing out on the sex they really want, because they’re worried it’s not normal.

Thankfully Woman’s Health has answered three of the most awkward sex questions we’re normally too scared to ask.

1. Is it normal for a straight woman to get turned on by girl-on-girl porn?

Yes .

A study by the University of Toronto found women aren’t normally turned on by porn they can relate to. Men are the opposite, and tend to be aroused by images that matched their sexual orientation, so a straight man would get turned on by straight porn.

2. Is it normal to masturbate five times a week?

Yes .

Masturbating is completely normal.

As well as for pleasure, many women use it as a way to relieve stress or simply to fall asleep.

Dr. Kelly Suschinsky told Women’s Health : “As long as it’s not causing a problem in your relationship or interfering with your wider life, then just enjoy it.”138208672551

3. Is it normal that my boyfriend fakes orgasms?

Yes

Most woman have been in this position at some point, and blokes are exactly the same.

An American study found that 30 per cent of men admit to faking orgasms.
