    Too much stimulation?

    Hello everyone, I have a silly question for which google has not provided me with an answer.

    Let's say that my gf can take certain amount of clitoral stimulation (hands or oral) before she tries to stop me. She does not want to stop, but it's a reflex, she tries to get a hold of herself for a little bit longer, but then tries to break free by all means. I have no problem seizing her, and continuing, but I am concerned for her health. We both love this 'game' as a fore/after play and even considered to try a bit of bondage, but I'm not sure I should pursue that route. She does not have any heart conditions, so is there any danger to that game of ours, or I'm thinking too much?

    I had some experience before, she was a virgin, and a little too shy on exploring her sexual side, even on her own.
    As a male I was never afraid of wanking myself in a coma, although I can remember 1 or 2 times, when receiving oral was too much too overwhelming (like a tingling, but without orgasm), but I would not mind to be tied up if it happened again.

    Sorry if it's too much info, back to my question : can 'overstimulation' lead to health problems/death?
    Thanks in advance.

    I am confused. Are you asking if there is harm in her doing the stop and go type of foreplay?-getting highly stimulated then stopping? If so there is no health concern. She may get agitated or frustrated that she is not having an orgasm (if that is her case) from it maybe but health wise nothing is going to happen. The worst that can happen is her clitoris simply becomes numb or sore because of all the stimulation.

    The clitoris is packed with so many nerves that it is almost impossible not to stimulate it too much at times. To get around this problem a man should try stimulating in a way that she prefers and easing up when it gets to be too strong of a feeling. Also some women like direct stimulation and some like it with more focus on the clitoral hood so that there is an indirect stimulation and hence not as strong.
    There are those who believe that dictionaries should not merely reflect the times but also protect English from the mindless assaults of the trendy.

      You just have to be careful with overstimulation. There is no heart concern, but you don't want to go after the clit once it has retracted into the clitoral hood. You can continue stimulating, but don't go after it. The clit will retract just before orgasm.

        Too much clitoral stimulation, or the wrong type, can be unpleasant. If you are _both_ making a game out of this, then fine, but you shouldn't force stimulation on her. It isn't nice and it can hurt. If it is a game that you both willingly play, she should have a "safe word" that she wouldn't normally say which means "I really mean stop." If she uses it, you must stop stimulating her immediately, no ifs, ands, or buts. Then if she struggles against stimulation _without_ using the safe word, there's no misunderstanding.
