I just love this. This is really marketing at its best.
The Hot Shot condom is slightly shorter and narrower than regular sized condoms, to fit the teeny willies of our 12-14 year old sexually active demographic. Cute!
Right now they’re only available in Switzerland (gotta love the Swiss, really) but they might soon be available in [...]

Okay wait. Before I reveal the newest sensation in vulva decorating, I just have to pause for a moment. Three weeks in a row now I’ve been presented with a new form of questionably hygienic genital primping, and three weeks in a row I’ve thought to myself: “Well now I’ve seen everything.” But this time [...]

So, we’re generally all for using a little creativity in the bedroom. And, sometimes, turning everyday household products into a sex toy can be a great way to spicy things up on a budget. So, go ahead, use that (non-microwavable) saran wrap as a dental dam, and feel free to raid your kitchen [...]

This is just… astonishing. The UK’s Department for Children, Schools and Families just opened a three month consultation period, in which teachers, parents, health professionals, and young people are encouraged to contribute to a new in-school program to teach about sex and relationships. Country-wide. Says the DCSF:
The purpose of this consultation is to gather views [...]

This is really great. The Sex Positive Journalism Awards, or “Sexies” for short, exists “to give mainstream journalists encouragement and support for covering sexual topics in unsensationalistic honest fashion.” You can also check out their award criteria and their list of judges (which include such luminaries as Carol Queen, Rachel Kramer Bussel, and Debby Herbenick).
They [...]

I just made that word up, if you can believe it.
The more “correct” term would be medicalization, and my favorite debunker of hack sex science, Dr. Petra Boynton, has a very nice outline of the medicalization of sex. Check out the article, the links to more information, and follow that up with her appearance on [...]

Oh these are priceless.
Here’s one to whet your whistle, so to speak.

Picture this:
You’ve got a new honey in the sack. You’re dying to try out one of your toys, but don’t want to skeeve anyone out by busting out the “well-loved” toys. What do you do?
This is where the O Boy Cockring Kit comes in. It’s a one-time use vibrating cockring, lube sample, and latex condom! [...]

Once again, I have to invoke the awesome Dr. Petra for providing links to these amazing pamphlets put together by the Swedish Association for Sexuality Education. You can open them as PDFs, and I highly recommend reading at least the one on the hymen (or ‘vaginal corona’ as they are suggesting it be renamed! I [...]

You know what I’m tired of? The “how does the female orgasm fit into evolutionary science” argument. I’m tired of all angles of this argument, from the camp that says there must be some way female orgasm makes women more evolutionarily viable — as mothers, mates, potential mothers, potential mates– and I’m tired of [...]
