 | This week is all about numbers. Numbers, as in statistics, can have a terrible flattening effect on the terrain of human experience, making everything seem the same, or at least comparable, to everything else. But as I learned, after taking a second look at a study of STI rates among swingers, a number, like so much else in sex, is what you make it. For your consideration this week; what sexual numbers matter most to you? Do you care about the number of sexual exploits? The number of years you've been with a partner, or gone without? We're usually counting something in the back of our minds, sometimes without even being aware of it. So take a minute today and think about what you're counting, and why. ~ Cory | |
Swingers, Sex Workers, STIs: Same Data, Different Day
You never know what you'll find once you start looking for something, and recent research in the Netherlands which was focussed on sexually transmitted diseases offers interesting numbers not only on the swinger population in general, but on long held assumptions about sex workers.
| Everything Matters: Parents, Kids, and Gender
Parents have a lot of anxiety about the "right" and "wrong" way to deal with their kids and gender. When should you stop letting kids of different genders play naked? When is it okay for them to dress in ways that don't match social expectations about their perceived gender? Adults often struggle with the connection between sex and gender, but when you let parents ask their sex questions, it's often the gender ones that come first.
| My Boyfriend's a Terrible Kisser
I love kissing, it's one of my favorite things to do. But I have a problem. My boyfriend is a lousy kisser. He's not so bad that I can't stand it, but I really miss those two hour long make out sessions I'd had with previous boyfriends. Any ideas on what I can do to get him to improve his game? My response.
| Your First Sex Toy
Sex toys are more like toothbrushes than they are like shoes. I say this not only because, in a pinch, most sex toys would do a better job cleaning your teeth than they would protecting your foot from the elements, but because like toothbrushes (and few other things) you can't try sex toys out before you buy them. Good stores may have demo models (which is more than you get from Oral B) but for this most part buying your first sex toy is always a bit of a shot in the dark. Which doesn't mean you can't learn a thing or two to improve your aim before you take your first shot.
