And with so many high-profile persons seemingly shirking fidelity, it’s easier for couples unsatisfied in their relationship to start wondering if these cheating politicians just may have the right idea. It’s these concerns and questions that The New York Times Magazine took on when reaching out to leading sex-advice columnist, Dan Savage for their recent exploration of monogamy and marriage. Savage tells the Times that many of us have a hard time admitting that being monogamous is difficult. He believes that when people treat monogamy as the sole indicator of a successul marriage, it casts unrealistic expectations for not only themse...

I used to get cramps that were so debilitating, I couldn’t do anything but lie in the fetal position and whimper. Not ever having known anything different than incredibly painful periods, I honestly didn’t think much of it. I was also having really heavy periods — like Fort Knox wouldn’t have protected me kind of heavy. At the time I didn’t realize what I was experiencing was unusual; I just thought that’s how every girl’s period was. When I went to college and shared close quarters with other girls, I started to get a clue that something was wrong. When I worked up the nerve to discuss it with a doctor, all of my symptoms were dismissed with a shrug and a prescription for Motrin. I probably should ...

Before you call your friend a ho for her one-night stands or a prude for not kissing on the first date, her actions might be something that’s been embedded in her DNA. According to a new study, DRD4, the same gene that’s been linked to alcoholism and obsession with horror flicks, is linked to people’s tendency to cheat or have one-night stands. Researchers from Binghamton University gathered and studied the sexual history and relationships of 181 young adult volunteers as well as took cheek DNA samples to find the presence of DRD4. The results showed that those with certain types of the gene also had more one night stands and infidelity experiences. Keep reading on Lemondrop. Post from: Bliss...

I had been working full-time as an OB/GYN, was expected to see 40 patients a day, and was really miserable.

After reading Juliet Lapidos’ articles about her nonsexual relationship with a guy named Jeff, I’m once again reminded of how lucky we are to be alive now instead of, say, in the 16th century, when bro hangs between men and women were uncommon and dying of the plague was not. Juliet surveyed around 600 readers in an attempt to divine the mysteries of boy-girl friendship, something she holds very near and dear herself.

They aren’t relationships, and they aren’t not relationships — and that middle ground can be confusing for men and women. While both sexes tend to make booty calls for sex, women often think of them as being a precursor to a more committed relationship, while men think of them as just sex: No-strings-attached. Big shocker there.Do you think a booty call could develop into a meaningful, committed partnership? via ABC NewsPost from: BlissTreeLatest Important Scientific Study: Understanding the Booty Call (Source: Healthbolt) Healthbolt blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=3907558 Thu, 26 Aug 2010 19:38:26 +0100 3907558 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=3902860&cid=t_250248_87_f&fid=34872&url=http%3A%2F%2Fblisstree.com%2Ffeel%2Fwhen-no-means-yes-top-10-rape-fantasy-scenes-on-film-and-tv%2F We don’t like rape. Rape sucks. Rape is wrong. Rape is bad. Rape is against the law. Still, a fair number of film and TV characters really seem to ask for it a lot. (Or maybe it’s that most film and TV directors are men. Wait a minute…) Obviously, these disturbing scenes exist for a reason, but what? To provoke thought, to promote dialogue, to teach, to titillate? Are these alleged rape “fantasies” supposed to be the character’s, the director’s – or ours? How the hell should we know? Blisstree didn’t get a Ph.D. in cinema studies. Instead, we present our gallery of the top 10 rape fantasy scenes on film and TV. (Tell us if we missed any – you sickos.) ...

It’s called Flojuggler, and this is its motto: ”Some people just want to know when the bleeding is going to stop so they can get busy.” That’s literally what it says. Flojuggler is an online tool that allows you to track the menstrual cycles of all of the women you know. Because that isn’t insanely creepy or offensive anything. (Also, women can have sex during their periods, you morons. Men are just too cowardly to try it.) The site assumes that you can’t speak to the woman whose period you’re creepily obsessing over. Planning a romantic getaway and want to know if she’ll be able to get freaky? Use Flojuggler! (Don’t actually ask your girlf...

We’d say that most teenagers are thoroughly freaked after taking that course, and probably try their best to avoid getting any of the dreaded STDs. But what about the 45 and over crowd? Not necessarily the group you’d think were at risk for STDs, but “swingers” in this age bracket actually are at a high risk for chlamydia and gonorrhea. Yep – middle-aged swingers. According to CNN, Researchers are saying that couples over 45 practicing group sex and partner-swapping weren’t as well-educated about STDs back in the 1960s or earlier, when they should have been...

That’s what researchers wanted to know. Does having sex mean oral sex? Does it mean heavy petting? Or does it mean only acts where there is penetration? While it may not seem to be terribly important to understand what the term means among different groups of people, it actually is. When discussing topics that involve sexual health or abuse, everyone who is participating in the conversation and/or treatment/management, must be on the same page as to what “having sex” is. To clarify this, or in the hopes of clarifying this, researchers from the Kinsey Institute at Indiana University wanted to see what the definition of “having sex” was to most people. This question had originally been asked in 1999, sparked by the then- U....

But did you know that men fake them too? The research that brings us this important sexual discovery was conducted at the University of Kansas on 180 male and 101 female college students. The students completed an anonymous survey about their sexual habits. Not surprisingly, some of the college students were still virgins — 15 percent of men and 32 percent of women surveyed had not yet had intercourse. Of the students who had had sex, nearly 30 percent of men reported faking an orgasm, compared to 67 percent of women. Some of the participants admitted they also faked orgasm not only during regular sex, but during oral sex, manual stimulation and phone sex as well...

Then check out this national survery that the Consumer Reports National Research Center just released. Turns out that over 80% of the sexually active people in their nationally representative survey of 1,000 adults indicated that they had sometimes avoided sex in the last year. Here’s the top 6 reasons why… too tired or needed sleep more than sex not feeling well or health problems not in the mood taking care of pets or children work watching a TV or a movie It’s interesting to note that money worries and the economy didn’t make the top 6 list.

The gossip columns follow the sexual athletics of celebrities with relish, but the “goings on” in the average office are of little interest to anyone.Should a doctor be censured for having an extra-marital office affair?Clearly it is undesirable that a doctor should ever trade upon a professional relationship with a patient to indulge in sexual shenanigans. In the wonderful world of A.J. Cronin, one could not imagine either Dr Cameron or Dr Finlay having their wicked way with a patient, and they would have been censured had they done so. But supposing one of then had got into a leg-over situation with Janet after the annual office party? Much mirth might have ensued, but would this affair hav...
