What do housewives know about sex? A lot more than you do, apparently

2009-05-20T11:24:00.002-04:00

What is it about Housewives that so many people find sexually appealing? Is it the idea that they're these pent-up balls of sexual deviance just waiting to release themselves from their closed-in prisons of mediocrity? Creative Loafing thinks that the very act of being a housewife makes this sought-after demographic particularly good at sex. The obvious advantage of not having to go to work is

Dealing with mismatched fetishes

2009-05-20T11:09:00.002-04:00

In an ideal world, the person you fall in love with will have the exact same sexual turn-ons as you, but in reality compatibility outside the bedroom does not always translate to compatibility in the bedroom. Perhaps you are really into anal but your husband isn't, or perhaps you enjoy role playing but he just can't get into it without feeling absolutely ridiculous.Or what happens if your

Is prostate cancer sexually transferable?

2009-05-16T16:58:00.003-04:00

Little known fact: Many think women, because they don't have prostates, are immune from the threat of prostate cancer, but in fact females do have a prostate gland, located in the same area as the G-Spot, called Skene's glands. Doctors think these glands actually start out as prostate glands during pregnancy and as gender develops, they shrink in females while growing in males. But the question

The massage oil dilemma: Scented or unscented

2009-05-16T16:48:00.003-04:00

While perusing through massage oils, it's not difficult to become quickly overwhelmed by the sheer mass of choices. They range in thickness, scent, targeted area of application, and temperature. Is it all a matter of personal taste, or is there a science to choosing what's best for you?A columnist at the Herald Tribune takes the scientific approach:There's an ongoing debate about whether massage

2009-05-14T13:29:00.003-04:00

Over at the Better Sex store we have spray that treats premature ejaculation by utilizing "a lidocaine based, pre-measured spray that reduces the sensitivity of the penis allowing more climax control."If you had any skepticism as to the effectiveness of the spray, look no further than this article in Science Daily:Researchers presented data on the spray's efficacy during a presentation of their

The myths of anal sex

2009-05-13T11:00:00.002-04:00

Anal sex is a delicate point of conversation between couples, with societal norms making it sometimes difficult for partners to broach the subject or define each other's desires and needs. For instance, the term "anal sex" can have a variety of meanings -- from rimming to the use of vibrating butt plugs -- but most people simply think of it as anal intercourse.But Sexuality.org has discussed

One male's impotence drug is a woman's clitoral stimulance

2009-05-12T14:20:00.002-04:00

Plenty of medical research has gone into treating male impotence (also, plenty of email (i.e. spam) marketing), but it turns out women may be soon benefiting from this as well.

Meghan McCain says GOP needs to lighten up about sex

2009-05-11T11:14:00.004-04:00

While she isn't exactly saying that Republicans should run out and buy oral sex mints, Meghan McCain, in her Daily Beast column, addresses the archaic and often harmful rhetoric of the GOP on sex.This is something I know about firsthand. During my father’s 2000 presidential campaign, a reporter asked how he would feel if I became pregnant and wanted an abortion. He answered that it would be my

2009-05-10T10:34:00.003-04:00

Almost a decade-long tradition, the Masturbate-A-Thon took place in San Fransisco last week and during it some new records were set.

So how did the results of the competition come out?This year’s winners packed some serious

The economics of fake orgasms

2009-05-08T12:16:00.004-04:00

While we all strive to achieve the triple orgasm, there's no denying that the art of faking it is prevalent in the US and elsewhere. But why do we do this? Is it just simple human courtesy?Leave it to an economist to write a paper on the "Economics of Ecstacy"In a study in 2008 titled 'The Economics of Ecstasy', Hugo M. Mialon, who teaches economics at Emory University, modelled love-making as a

Are you properly recycling your sex toys?

2009-05-07T13:44:00.003-04:00

BOGO Me Baby

2009-04-23T16:01:00.004-04:00

Buy One, Get OneWe may have messed up. We started shouting BOGO on Monday and it was one of those, "What if you created a cool sale and no one came," things. Our thinking, flawed as it clearly was, is BOGO was a well known term. You Buy One and You Get One for FREE or for 50% off or something right. WRONG! Apparently what we created most of all was confusion. Use the links below to see our BOGO (
