sexual satisfaction
The sex is bad, attempts to fix it aren't working, what should you do?
RH Reality Check (the website for "information and analysis for reproductive health") recently received the following letter from a reader named Jessica:
My boyfriend does not satisfy me sexually. He only lasts about ten minutes, he won't rub my clit because he doesn't want bodily fluids on his hand and he won't eat me out because he thinks it's nasty, but he thinks that I should give him head. We have been together two years and now it is really affecting me. What can I do?
The RH Reality Check advisor, Heather Corinna, tries her best to support Jessica by saying … Read More
Believe it or not, some men are just not into oral intimacy.
Blow jobs are overrated. There. I said it. I know men who would fight a grizzly bear with a spork for a little mouth love. I also know women who guard their oral sexing technique the way a pharmaceutical company protects its most precious patents. But I'm just not a dude who loves blow jobs. I'm an active guy, when it comes to being intimate with a woman, and laying back and letting her go down on me has always felt passive to me. Disconnected. As if I could lean back and read The Economist or slurp a bowl … Read More
The Trojan sex survey feeds curious minds.
Have you ever wondered what goes on in your neighbors' bedrooms? Well, we're here to tell you.
No, we didn't go all Patriot Act on strangers. We just read the results of Trojan's recent sex survey.
Turns out, if your neighbors are like 75 percent of Americans 18 or older, they have had sex within the past year. Which means, if Trojan's random sample of 1,000 people is indicative, a quarter of adult Americans have not had sex within the last 12 months. Of course, unsurprisingly, both the frequency of sex and reported satisfaction with it goes down with age. Sigh. … Read More
Giving pleasure can be great for both of you. Here's how.
Susan Crain Bakos is a research sexologist, sex journalist and author. Here, she tells us how to have an orgasm while giving a guy oral sex—a tip from her book "The New Tantra."
If you're in a relationship, you probably have quid pro quo sex: You arouse him with some oral sex, he returns so you can orgasm, you shift to intercourse for his peak and finish with The Cuddle for your benefit.
Give your sex life a jolt with fellatio that will rock both of your worlds (really!). It's time modern women got down on our knees for something … Read More
A cohabitation survival guide, sexless marriages and friends with benefits.
And just like that, it's back to business as usual. According to The Australian, families in which the wife was far better-educated than the husband are highly prone for divorce. Though the inverse was not true. Which goes to show that women are not into guys that can't tell their Manets from their mayonnaise.
On the subject of getting dumped, Cosmo has an article on why dudes ditch gals even if they're down with 'em. Worth a read if you have a few minutes. Though our homey Liz Tuccillo (He's Just Not That Into You) would … Read More
