Kinky Sex?

Kinky sex is a catch-all term for a range of consensual practices -- called kinks -- that include role play, power dynamics, or fetishes. Kinky sex requires direct communication between partners about desires and limits to make sure that it is a pleasurable experience for everyone involved. Kinks can be simple or complex and include spanking, group sex, polyamory (multiple relationships), costumes, exhibitionism, and voyeurism. You might be interested in one particular kink or several, or you might prefer different experiences depending on the partner. Kink can often be a way for partners to increase feelings of intimacy. Some activities can be dangerous, though, such as slapping, whipping, or bondage, and require clear understanding between partners about boundaries. It’s important to make sure that any type of kink play prioritizes partners’ safety and comfort. BDSM is a broad acronym that stands for six components: bondage and discipline (B&D), dominance and submission (D&S), and sadism & masochism (S&M). This type of [...]

A urologist said the condition isn't life-threatening, but is a cause of infertility in men. Unlike "And Just Like That..." suggests, kegels do not treat retrograde ejaculation. Medications do.

Breast Implants That are 3D-Printed

Two German companies have paired up on the development of a technology that could disrupt the breast implant market: 3D-printed breast implants. BellaSeno will use Evonik's Resomer bioresorbable polymer in its Senella breast scaffolds with a proprietary additive manufacturing process that avoids the use of silicone implants, some of which have raised major safety concerns. BellaSeno plans to begin first-in-human clinical trials of the Senella scaffolds with Resomer in Germany this quarter. Evonik has agreed to supply its Resomer polymer for clinical and commercial use. The scaffolds are designed to guide the growth of natural tissue using the patient's own body fat harvested via liposuction. Designed to be implanted after breast reconstruction, augmentation, or revision surgery, the Resomer polymer features mechanical properties and a degradation profile that allow the scaffold to absorb at a rate that matches the formation of the patient’s own tissue. Scaffolds will be available in different sizes and shapes to match the patients’ needs, BellaSeno said. [...]

Condoms Sexy? ‘People Are Like, Wow!’

It is important to Ben Wilson, the man in charge of the condom brand Durex, that he chews the condoms he sells. He likes to consider their flavour, to know the sensory experience of a customer engaged in oral sex, and to think about how it could be bettered. He makes other people sample them, too. In a car on the way to the Durex condom factory on the outskirts of Bangkok, as traffic vibrated in the heat along the highway, he told me with pride about the time he had laid out rows of bananas and condoms for a gathering of senior executives at Reckitt, Durex’s parent company. “I said: ‘If you want to work on condoms you need to put a condom on that banana and taste it.’” Freshly promoted, Wilson is Reckitt’s global category director for intimate wellness, overseeing all the company’s sex-related products, including Durex condoms, lubes and toys. Sandy-haired, rosy-cheeked, nearing 50, Wilson has a [...]

Extreme Tourism for Billionaires

Since the pandemic, Madison has noticed an uptick in high-net-worth individuals booking out entire expeditions. “One client bought a whole trip to climb Mount Vinson in Antarctica for $200,000 last year,” he says. “It’s the latest trend: billionaires wanting their own private adventure with friends; they fly to Antarctica in a private jet. It’s next level.” Although his mountain expeditions are high-end, Madison says they come with minimum comfort. The greatest luxury he offers, he adds, is at Everest base camp: Warm showers, yoga sessions, and a dining tent with a movie screen are among the amenities on the $75,000 excursion. “The guys that come on my adventures ultimately want to suffer a little bit—that’s how they feel alive. Otherwise, they’d be staying at a Four Seasons five-star resort somewhere.” However, a cottage industry of luxury extreme tourism also exists. White Desert Antarctica offers premium accommodation near the South Pole for $15,000 a night, replete with heated, opulently furnished pods [...]

Wives at Times Never Sleep with Their Husbands

Caylee Cresta has a TikTok following of 2.7 million people. In her bio, she proclaims, “We empower women here.” In a recent post, Cresta declared, “Fellas, I wanna make a little PSA here,” before offering her opinion on how physical intimacy manifests between husbands and wives. She spoke directly to husbands of the world, stating, “You complain that your wife never wants to be intimate, but you slap her butt when she’s emptying the dishwasher and grope her body when she’s stressing over bills.” RELATED: The #1 Thing Husbands Do To Make Their Wives Avoid Intimacy Cresta raised a valid question, asking, “Why would aggressively touching someone out of nowhere make them wanna sleep with you? Especially when they’re in the middle of trying to take care of everyone but themselves?” As she sees it, “Touching her without talking to her means you wanna get off, not feel connected. And it’s so selfish for you to think that you wanting to [...]

Pornhub Asks Authorities to Adopt Age Laws

In the two-minute video, adult performer Cherie Deville stares into the camera and intones soberly to viewers, for the second time in a month, that policymakers are coming for their porn. “Click the button below to contact your representatives before it is too late,” Deville pleads. The call-to-action video, launching Wednesday in multiple states, comes from Pornhub, which last month withdrew from Utah over a new law that requires adult sites to verify their users’ ages and holds them liable for serving their content to minors. Now, as similar legislation is set to take effect next month in Arkansas, Mississippi and Virginia, Pornhub is making a last-ditch effort to galvanize users there in opposition. It’s unclear how much Pornhub expects to achieve, as the laws have already been passed and signed. A company spokesperson told CNN it’s “certainly not our goal” to shut down the site in the three states as it did in Utah but hinted at the possibility, [...]

LGBTQ+ Group Criticizes Topless Trans Activist

 © Mark Gunter/Getty Rose Montoya arrives on the red carpet for Los Angeles Fashion Week Powered by Art Hearts Fashion at The Majestic Downtown on March 18, 2023, in Los Angeles, California. The nation's leading nonprofit for LGBTQ+ families criticized the actions of a transgender activist, calling her behavior at a White House event "a distraction from the lifesaving work" that needs to be done for members of the LGBTQ+ community. "The short clip circulating on social media of a person covering their bare breasts while at the White House's Pride celebration is incredibly inappropriate," Stacey Stevenson, CEO of Family Equality, told Newsweek on Tuesday. This past Saturday, President Joe Biden hosted hundreds of guests at the White House for a picnic celebrating Pride month. Among the attendees was transgender influencer and activist Rose Montoya, who posted an Instagram video of herself topless at the event, which brought outrage from both conservatives and pro-LGBTQ+ groups. "The White House Pride celebration [...]

Masturbation Evolved in Primates as a healthy Sexual Behavior

Despite centuries of taboo and titillation, masturbation in primates appears to serve an evolutionary purpose. A study published June 6 in the journal Proceedings of The Royal Society B, found that self-stimulating increases reproductive success and helps primates avoid sexually transmitted infections (STI), at least in males. [Related from PopSci+: These sex toys are designed to heal, one orgasm at a time.] Self-pleasure is common across the animal kingdom, but is particularly frequent in primates including humans. The behavior was considered by some scientists to be either pathological or simply a by-product of sexual arousal. Recorded observations were also too fragmented to fully understand masturbation’s distribution, evolutionary history, or adaptive significance. In this new study, a team of researchers built a dataset on primate masturbation from close to 400 sources, including 246 published academic papers, and 150 questionnaires and personal communications from zookeepers and primatologists. To understand why and when the practice evolved in both females and males, the authors [...]

Lesbian Bars Might Be Making a Comeback?

CHICAGO – People fill the bar and patio at Nobody's Darling on a Saturday in early May, sipping craft cocktails and listening to the music of a local queer DJ. "We're so much more than a cocktail bar," said co-owner Renauda Riddle, 42. "We're almost like a community center." Nobody's Darling is one of an estimated 27 lesbian bars in the U.S., down from the hundreds that existed in the 1980s, according to The Lesbian Bar Project, an awareness campaign that runs a website and released a short film and TV series on the topic. Start the day smarter. Get all the news you need in your inbox each morning. It's also one of six new spaces added to the The Lesbian Bar Project's list since last summer.
