during sex my girlfriend complains about a slight stinging she feels during intercourse. i've tried different posistions and lube but it still seems that she stings. i've been "around the block" but i haven't encountered anything like this before...maybe she has a slight tear in her vaginal wall...or maybe it's just too thick? any insight and advice would be welcome

stinging?
1) try few different lubes, even though there are couple of market leaders you don't have to stick to the well know brands. one lube is different from the other. i personally tried several ones, well known like ky and couple of less known brands. using durex now which so far has been great. you do have to watch the use by date with lubricants too. i think it is something like 3 months after first use...i realised that the closer it is to 3 months the more likely i am to get irritated down there.
2) when i tear i try to stay clear flavoured anything, condoms or lube; we give ourselves couple of days and have another go then ;)
3)if you are big then it's only right that you use as much lubrication as possible, it's better to overdo it and then wipe some away then start having sex and then realise that more lube is needed...when my bfnd and i first started seeing each other it happened a lot to us too...i'd feel stinging which would get worse the longer we do it...
I hope my reply was helpful :)
