In this over-medicated age, drug companies continue expanding their empires into the farthest realms of human behavior, developing chemical cocktails for whatever ails us: if depressed take Prozac, if scatterbrained take Adderall, if sleepless take Ambien, if impotent take Viagra… Now researchers are searching for drugs that will help you stay in love.

Consider how people often attribute their inability to remain in a relationship to psychological reasons, saying such things as, “I’m not happy anymore,” or “the spark is gone.” In a sense, a lack of love is simply a chemical imbalance, which theoretically can be corrected. Someday soon drug companies may develop a prescription pill that helps you stay in love the same way Rogaine sustains hair. Read the rest of this entry »

On many occasions I can be caught mumbling, “Man, I wish I was a guy.” This is accurate on most accounts. It sucks bleeding every month for days on end. Having a kid come out of your lower body looks pretty shitty. And, general upkeep is far more annoying.

But, when it comes to sex, I am MORE than happy to be a female. Read the rest of this entry »

Swingers aren’t as easy to spot as you may think. You may even be a swinger without realizing it. To eliminate any confusion, I’ve compiled a top ten list of reasons you might want to change your Facebook status from “married” to “swinger.”

You might be a swinger if: Read the rest of this entry »

As long as you’re not some dude, you should sleep with me. Now, I’m not talking about cuddling up and taking a nap together. I’m talking about full-fledged, steamy-hot, I-Can’t-Believe-It’s-Not-Butter sex! (Minus the butter substitute, and Fabio).

You may be asking “why?” Well the answer is simple: why not? I’m a healthy, 25-year old business owner who has a deeper, sensitive side when you get past the douchebag exterior. I’m not only really smart, but I’m also very sexy, and humble too…well, maybe not that last part. I can even play the guitar, or at least hold one really cool. Read the rest of this entry »

According to the September 2009 edition of Playboy, watching porn boosts your testosterone levels as effectively as hormone therapy drugs.

Men lose and average of 1percent of their testosterone levels every year starting at age 30, and 5 million American men suffer from low testosterone. Among the array of detrimental effects this has on your penis, low hormone levels can cause you to shrink and become depressed. Read the rest of this entry »

The word swinger sounds dirty all by itself. For many, this lifestyle conjures stereotypes of swingers engaging in all types of uninhibited behaviors. Many of the assumptions non-swingers have about the lifestyle are true, to an extent, but it’s important to realize that every swinger is different, and we each decide what uninhibited behaviors we are comfortable with.

Swinging is often associated with over indulgence in alcohol or drugs; most people can’t understand how you could get naked and have sex in front of, and with, a room full of strangers, without being wasted on some substance. Personally I don’t partake in drug use or excessive drinking, but I’ve had swinging encounters with a few who do.  Read the rest of this entry »

Getting into position: The woman draws her knees up while the man positions himself over her. Trapping her thighs in what is described as a “tight knot,” he saddles her and rides her buttocks all the way to orgasmville!

On a scale of 1 to 10 how would you rate position? 8

Did you have difficulty getting into the position? Slight difficulty. You will have to play with this one a bit to understand exactly what “tight knot” means. I’m not even sure we got it completely right … but if what I did was wrong, I don’t want to be right! Read the rest of this entry »

As the hunt for my next fuck-buddy continues, I’ve expanded my search parameters and raised my age limit. At least I tried to.

When I was younger I vowed I wouldn’t date anyone more than eight years older than me, but as I grew up, my lovers and boyfriends got progressively younger. To be honest, I hadn’t even thought about dating older men until the other night. Read the rest of this entry »

The porn industry has steadily grown to the point where adult entertainers like Jenna Jameson and Ron Jeremy are now more respected than reality show stars. But, for all of the industry’s Viagra-like growth, it too is not impervious to the economic downturn. The internet, which facilitated the rise of pornography, especially in niche markets, has inevitably detracted from sales. As virus-free porn sites like YouPorn and Redtube, pop up, those feeling the economic pinch can now get their adult fix for free.

The best things in life are free. Unfortunately, the porn industry is learning that lesson the hard way as sales go soft (zing!). Down 20-30%, Larry Flynt and Joe Francis have asked for a financial fluffer to help adult entertainment companies in their time of need. But it’s not just magazines and DVDs that are feeling the squeeze; the Internet has been screwed up too! Read the rest of this entry »

What’s the newest tactic the U.S. is using to gain converts in the War on Terror? Not waterboarding — that’s old news. Bombing weddings? Oh, that’s sooo 2002. And blasting Britney Spears is just tacky.

No, the newest arsenal the CIA is using to persuade rogue nations to turn in terrorists is none other than Viagra.

And, as this Washington Post story reports, it seems to be working:

The Afghan chieftain looked older than his 60-odd years, and his bearded face bore the creases of a man burdened with duties as tribal patriarch and husband to four younger women. His visitor, a CIA officer, saw an opportunity, and reached into his bag for a small gift.

Four blue pills. Viagra.

“Take one of these. You’ll love it,” the officer said. Compliments of Uncle Sam.

The enticement worked. The officer, who described the encounter, returned four days later to an enthusiastic reception. The grinning chief offered up a bonanza of information about Taliban movements and supply routes — followed by a request for more pills.
