Condé Nast is abandoning the Daily Bedpost.
This weekend we received word that Condé Nast is shutting down one of our favorite sex and relationship sites, the Daily Bedpost. Run by Em & Lo (real names Emma Taylor and Lorelei Sharkey) and Dr. Kate (real name unknown) the Daily Bedpost offers fun, down-to-earth sex and relationship advice several times a day. Love Buzz has long been a fan of the Daily Bedpost; Em, Lo and Kate have inspired us to write about sex myths, the male birth control pill, testicle touching, one night stands and more.
According MediaWeek, Condé is … Read More
Do discuss safe sex. Do not leave your bra at his house. Do do it doggie style. Do not enter a coma.
One-night stands: for or against? The Daily Bedpost posed this question earlier this week, and readers responded in favor of the casual liaison. Em and Lo, in turn, laid out ten basic rules of the one-night stand. After all, knowing you'll never see him again does not give you (or him) permission to be rude. Some of our favorites (abbreviated, and with a bit of interpretation):
Do make your intentions clear. Do not talk about your father's alcoholism or your sister's rehab. Do talk about safe sex. Do not get mushy and romantic. Do … Read More
Video reveals different strokes for different folks.
Like a person's taste or distate for olives, there are those who adore going down on their partners and those who detest it—and sometimes for the very same reason. As with olives, "it's briny and salty" could be at once a positive and negative review. Unsurprisingly, then, conflicting opinions abound in Daily Bedpost's "What Makes A Great Blowjob" video, featuring on-the-street advice from the givers and receivers of the so-called "art" of oral sex.
One woman says the dirtier you get the better, while the nasty nature of the deed turns another off completely—as does getting on … Read More
Would you want to date one?
Awesome question from the Daily Bedpost. Would you date an only child? There are clearly reasons to steer clear of the single child: solipsism, mom issues (or dad issues), socialization difficulties, reliance on television/imaginary friends for company, skewed POV, no experience with sharing a room/clothes/affection, pressure to have children now… basically a lot of stuff that home schooled kids go through just without the spelling bee dominance.
On the other side; inheritance. You might get some pretty good birthday and Christmas gifts too. We are assuming that people with only 1 kid are probably rich. But you … Read More
Tango weighs in on Daily Bedpost's list of myths.
Last week, the Daily Bedpost posted a list of 50 statements often (but, according to them, falsely) assumed true when it comes to sex.
Below, we've listed a few examples that the Bedpost deemed mythical, along with previously published Tango articles that either support or contradict the claim.
Bedpost Myth # 4. Gentlemen should always pay for dinner.
Disagree. Though it seems counter-intuitive (and somewhat hard to swallow) to the liberated 21st-century woman, a recent survey revealed that almost 50 percent of women kinda/sorta want men to pay.
Bedpost Myth #14. Your lover should be your best … Read More
