Who Says Big Kids Can’t Play with Toys?

Who Says Big Kids Can’t Play with Toys?

Pinkee here~ I have recently had a resurgence of my love of sex toys. (It’s been a long-standing love affair.) I know some of you guys out there have some issues with toys, though. I’d say the two most common ones are either you have never used toys with your partner because you’re afraid she is too conservative, or you’ve never used toys with your partner because you’re afraid she will like them more than she likes your penis.

Does Nipple Color Matter?

Worried about your nipple color? Some women are tinting theirs pink.

We've spent a lot of time here at YourTango talking about breasts: their size, how to support them, breasts that are au naturale versus those that have been surgically enhanced. In all this time, we've focused primarily on the heft of our boobage. The cleavage. The sensual roundness of our breasts in all of their glorious entirety. Who they belong to after having a baby. But now it seems as if we've been missing out on a crucial sector of the boobage debate: nipples.

Orgasms 101

Last week I was doing some research on orgasms. I was stunned to find that most of my search results came up with two types of female orgasms. Most results referred to either clitoral or vaginal orgasms. Those are certainly two types, but there are many more. I’ve counted eight orgasms that directly relate to parts of the female anatomy:

Doctors Notice Upswing In Nipple Surgeries

Doctors Notice Upswing In Nipple Surgeries

Nipple surgeries are so hot right now.

London's Harley Medical Group reported today that in the past year doctors have noticed a 30% upswing in nipple surgeries. Doctors note an astonishing number of women going to their doctor's offices wanting to tattoo their areolas a darker shade or even out an asymmetrical flaw.

Cleavage: How Much Is Too Much?

Cleavage: How Much Is Too Much?

Your guide to unwrapping your packages this holiday season.

We usually don't associate the brrrr!-ful winter months with boobs hanging out of our clothes (that would be summertime!) but the Daily Mail points out a tricky sartorial trend: lots of cleavage with the holiday party dresses. Especially in such sweatpants-and-tee-shirts times, us single girls relish the holiday party for the chance to show off some cleavage and reel in a randy fellow. It's been a long time since our Sexy Police Woman / Sexy Nurse / Sexy Mailman costume at Halloween, after all. In northern climates, we're wearing down jackets from late September until late March, so dress-up opportunities are few and far between. The trick, of course, is to show off your girls in a sensible way. So how low should you go? Aim for what you feel comfortable with -- though we suggest you aim for social appropriate-ness. A cocktail party on a Saturday night? Go wild. An office party? Definitely show a bit less, but still enough to enchant Bingo in accounting. Synegogue or church? Cover 'em up.

Going Braless: Yay or Nay?

Going Braless: Yay or Nay?

When it comes to going braless, my boyfriend and I have decidedly different takes.

Today Lemondrop brings us word of another bra-related fashion trend: going braless. Erin, writing for Lemondrop, brings up the point, ahem, that when your breasts get cold your nipples get hard, and "while having your nips in salute mode may be considered flirtatious in some corners, I prefer to leave my headlights off, thank you very much."
