Do it like they do on the Discovery Channel

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 [...]

For a good time, call oxytocin.

I know I know. Oxytocin is the goody two-shoes of the hormone world. Blah blah blah emotional attachment, mother-child bonding, etc.. The cuddling hormone, if you will.

16 minutes of well-spent time, I assure you.

Carnal Consultant Review: The Nexus Glide Prostate Stimulator

by Will Shaking Spear
I came over my head.  I mean, sure, I could have come up with a more articulate opening to this review, but shit.  I actually came over my own head.  I mean, that’s amazing right?  I wouldn’t think most men need more of a sell than that but I suppose if you [...]

A good question

An anonymous emailer writes:
This post relates to a burning question I’ve had and been on a quest to answer for years. I am a sex-positive womyn, and I don’t need research to validate my experience. But, I think the majority of heterosexual women do, and as a feminist I am constantly en garde to set [...]
