Welcome to Deep Discount Season, aka Black Friday and Cyber Monday! If you want more literal bang for your buck, now’s the ideal time to snag some sex toys. Just like last year, I’d like to remind you that if a review or social […]
“This clam is jammed!” I once quipped to a guy I was chatting up. It was a light-hearted way to start the “I can’t have vaginal sex” conversation that came up every time I wanted to get laid in my 20’s. I always try to […]
Grinding (also called humping) is when you rub your genitals against an object or consenting partner for sexual pleasure. It’s all about movement, texture, and friction: the slick glide of a vulva against a bedpost, the firm press of a penis on a partner’s ass, […]
