Well, I shouldn’t discount this because I’m neither an expert in beauty regimes or nutrition (seriously, Google me. No wait, please don’t). But something tells me that this woman’s daily dose of sperm as a nutritional supplement might not be all that she thinks it is. In fact, it might not be anything at all.
Here’s the thing: guys hav...
Warm rays of sun stream through the window. A beautiful haze fills the air as you open your eyes. Slowly the room comes into focus and you blink a couple times recalling the amazing events of last night. You turn your head to see the glowing face of your partner. A smile creeps across your face as your hand moves to them under the covers…
Morn...
I have to say, I am fairly convinced that humans started looking for ways to increase the duration of sex as soon as they discovered it was pleasurable for both parties. I can’t say from the beginning because I have a feeling sex wasn’t always greatly consensual when it started out. However, we’ve moved forward quite a bit since then and, the...
There is no denying that one of the sexiest things a couple of people in lust can do is to hit the road and take some time together on a hot and steamy vacation. Getting away from home can do so many great things for a relationship—whether you’ve got the greatest, most loving connection ever or even if you’re feeling troubled in your relation...
Swing sets aren’t just for schoolyards anymore! Nope, they can definitely be a part of anyone’s sexual playground. That is if you’re ready to move from a traditional swing and you’re ready to try a sex swing!
Sex swings are a fantastic addition to anyone’s pleasure chest. They come in number of different variations, from smaller contra...
Imagine a room full of the sexiest people you know. Music plays and people laugh. They touch, they kiss and eventually, bit by bit, clothes start to come off. Skin is exposed and laughter turns into moans. And gasps and shrieks of joy. The aroma of sex fills the room as people partner up, or, perhaps, form their own groups. Sucking, licking, fuckin...
Q: I recently had one of the best nights out of my life! My best girls and I went out for a night on the town, no real plans, just ready to enjoy whatever came up. We hit a few bars, we talked to a few blokes, but we were mostly interested in our group and having drinks and fun together. Near the end of the night, we happened on a small bar that I ...
There is absolutely no reason to be afraid of having sex while you or your partner is pregnant. Seriously you will have plenty to be afraid of after the child comes into the world! Unless your doctor has advised you otherwise (this can happen), you can continue to have sex throughout your pregnancy, with there being no risk to mother or baby.
No...
Colour, size, material, shape—all of these are very important things to consider when it comes to choosing your next favourite vibrating sex toy. Every one of these characteristics can be very important, or, in the least, you know which ones aren’t going to be a factor for you at all. We all like different things in our vibrators, but there is ...
Everybody has their own sex “style.” This could refer to their choice of positions, if they are into BDSM or fetishes, if they are aggressive or passive, or even if they like it with the lights on or off! Sex comes in so many different flavours—and that can be such a glorious benefit to our days.
Unfortunately, it can also cause some frict...
It has been heralded as one of the most defining inventions in sexual history—if not all of human history. There have been many different revolutions in the world, for a variety of causes. And while the sexual revolution may not rank up there with revolutions that liberated countries, the sexual revolution did, in fact, liberate millions and mill...
There are so many types of porn out there, it really is pretty amazing. There are films and clips for every single type of sexual interest on this planet. Just as it is with Rule 32 of the internet, if someone has expressed a porny desire of any sort, someone else has captured that idea on film.
And this is really important. If we didn’t have ...
This may sound like some kind of fallacy since it really isn’t the type of thing we hear about every day, but it really is possible that you might encounter a penis that is just too big. I know, kinda sounds like we’re talking about the Loch Ness Monster or Bigfoot. But it is true, there are plenty of people out there who have cocks that exceed...
Q: My boyfriend and I have been together for about a year and we have a fantastic sex life. Well, we did, until a couple months ago. On top of a lot of different things stressing me out, it started to hurt every time we are intimate. This didn’t happen at all during the first big part of our relationship, but we took a short break for a few weeks...
Isn’t it funny that the things that often kickstarts and begins our sexual lives is often something that gets forgotten when other, more involved, activities come along. At the same time, many people are quite able to remember their first time, the first person, where it happened and even how that person tasted.
It is the smooch, the lip lock,...
Our asses are truly wonderful. Really! They are a sexual playground that offer so many unique sensations and experiences. On the outside, on the inside, there are many different ways to play with an ass that it really is a shame that so many people are a little bit unsure or afraid to experience anal pleasure.
Of course, there is a good reason f...
When you think of the most controversial sexual subjects that seems to pervade all cultures, incest ranks right up there. The practice of closely related people, be that siblings, parents and children or other configurations establishing and maintaining sexual relationships is forbidden around the world. The reasons for outlawing such relationships...
We all crave markers, signifiers, labels. We might not always like it when other people push those labels on us, but that’s a different story. Today we’re talking about a very specific type of sexual categorization that some folks find very useful in navigating toward the people they really want to be in a relationship with.
Have you ever he...
In recent years many different sex acts have come under greater scrutiny for what they mean to different people. Many sex acts are highly controversial and cause different feelings in different folks. There is a popular phrase around sex community circles that says “don’t yuck my yum.” This means, generally, that while you may not be a fan of...
Q: Okay, I’ve always been confused by the whole bisexual thing. I hate to sound like some kind of intolerant jerk, but I don’t get it. Is it really possible for someone to be attracted to both men and women? I’m really asking! It seems impossible to be equally attracted to both men and women...or in whatever degrees the person claims. Aren’...
