Ultimately, the only one getting faked out is you.
It's 11 p.m. You've had the most hectic day imaginable (kids + chores + appointments + errands = total mom exhaustion). Your man, on the other hand, is feeling frisky and wants a major sex session. You don't mind compromising a bit, but as far as you're concerned, Orgasmland might as well be in Timbuktu, because it's going to take you hours to get there. Is it okay if you, er, fudge a little in order to move things along? Dr. Jane Greer, a marriage and family therapist in New York City and host of the radio show "Doctor … Read More
Baby got back hair, and you cannot lie. Your other sisters can't deny.
Last December, I briefly dated a guy who was on the hairy side (c'mon now, it was winter, and it was cold!). While I think that a bit of hair on a guy's chest and back is sexy, lots of hair -- we're talking fur -- is NOT. Watch: Do Women Like Back Hair?

How to keep the children in mind when you're reconciling.
Many couples decide to get back together after a long or short period following separation or divorce. While reuniting is exciting, it is also stressful.
Many thoughts enter the couple's mind: Will it last this time? Will it turn sour again when we are living together? Does my partner think about the other lovers? Will he/she abandon me again? How will our extended family and friends react?

Six things you can do to protect against infidelity.
As we know, affairs are truly a symptom of an unhealthy and unfulfilled marriage. One way to help inoculate your marriage against affairs is to keep your sex life and physical intimacy a priority. For some couples, sex is not even on the list after having kids.

Loving your husband does not mean that living with him is always easy.
Yes, I love my husband and family and wouldn't change a thing about our family unit. Now that I have made that obligatory statement, let me get to my point. There are certain issues that I have with the institution of marriage, which offers both wonderful benefits and incredible challenges, often in the same day. Here are the five things I hate about marriage.

A woman discovers what it's like to have sex after vaginal reconstruction surgery.
Back in April, I shared my story of having vaginal reconstruction. Of course, a surgery of this nature requires sex to be put on hold for quite awhile, but I promised readers that I would write again when my spouse and I finally gave the new runway a test flight. After eight weeks post-op, I was able to finally come home with the news, "It's cherry poppin' season, honey!" and we made our first attempt. The key word here is "attempt." Let me explain.
