| April 21st: How To Find the Perfect Sensual Gift | ||||
Racking your brain for thoughtful, creative gifts every holiday, anniversary, birthday, or any occasion -- can drive you nuts. This year, get creative and give your recipients something they will REALLY appreciate: Another box of chocolates? Yawn! How about a box of chocolate body frosting, instead? Board games seem boring? Not ours! Spice up your love life with the The Kama Sutra Game. We promise that after reading this article, you'll be able to find the perfect sexy gift for that special someone (or someones) in your life! Test the Waters You might be apprehensive about giving someone a vibrator or dildo as a gift. Will they like it? Will they be offended? Will they think you're weird? These are all valid question - not everyone is comfortable with sex toys. If your recipient falls into this category, don't despair. Test the waters by giving an innocent, novelty-type gift. Combined with a MyPleasure gift certificate, this type of "beginner's" gift can be a great way to turn your recipient on to the fun of shopping for erotic gifts. I Can't Buy a Vibrator! If you just don't feel comfortable buying a sex toy why not give a sensual, yet non-sexual, gift? Bath products make a wonderful gift for just about anyone, and most couples will love receiving a beautiful bottle of massage oil. Sensual gifts allow you to be creative with your gift selection, and your recipients will enjoy a break from the usual flowers, balloons and stuffed animals. |

| April 16th : When Oral Sex Becomes A Debate | ||||
Oral sex today is part of a broad sexual menu enjoyed by many men and women. But when one partner wants oral sex and the other does not, conflicts can threaten even long-term relationships. What can couples do to solve such a dilemma? The first step is to talk about it - not in bed but at a time when you are both alone, calm, undisturbed and have time for a real discussion. Talk about why it's uncomfortable for you. Everybody has sexual comfort zones, and you need to explain why oral sex goes beyond your sexual comfort zone. Does the person who does not want oral sex want to like it or not want to like it? Many people have never tried oral sex and may have wrong ideas about it. The key issue is whether the man or woman has the desire to try to like it: If the desire is there, a solution becomes possible. Norman Fertel, MD, an obstetrician/gynecologist and marital and sex therapist in private practice in Brooklyn, NY, said that conflicts over oral sex are not that different from other conflicts in a relationship. "First, you have to ask if this is something you would call a 'core issue,' meaning that the one who doesn't want to do it will not do it under any conditions," he said. "Or is it because they really haven't tried or experimented with it?" In other words, said Fertel, determine if the issue is negotiable. Finding Solutions If you find that discussions about oral sex have failed and your partner is still unwilling to try it or does so only reluctantly and without enthusiasm, you may want to get some help from a sex therapist to work out the dispute. Why Is Oral Sex So Important? Not everyone cares that much about oral sex, and many couples do quite nicely without it. But for some people, more often men, life is not the same without it. Some people don't feel their love life is complete if you can't 'take all of me'. To them the lack of oral sex sets boundaries on a relationship, and there are some people who really do not want those kinds of limits and will always feel they are missing something important. In rare situations, the refusal of one partner to perform oral sex can even end a marriage. Again, it's more often the man who decides that it's a make-or-break issue. He may be going through a mid-life crisis or just sensing his age, feeling that this is his last chance for complete happiness. A lot of people leave marriages, and oral sex is definitely one of the issues. They really want it all or at least the chance to get it all. But with a little work, compromise and understanding, most disputes over oral sex can eventually be happily resolved. |

| The Dating Game (2/10) | ||||
Dating: Is it indeed a game? Newspaper and magazine articles, and now even books, are transforming dating and courtship into a much more rigid, technical, and rule-based game of the sexes. For example, a few years back, millions of women all over the world rushed to their neighborhood bookstores to purchase "The Rules: Time Tested Secrets for Capturing the Heart of Mr. Right," (Warner books) by authors Ellen Fein and Sherrie Schneider. Ms. Fein and Ms. Schneider advocate an approach to dating for women that is designed to "catch a man"-lure him, captivate him, and eventually steer him toward a committed relationship. The authors suggest that women today are too giving, open, and nice to men -- and that this approach causes men to lose interest quickly. Instead, they recommend that women play "hard to get," using a new set of rules, which they claim helped them to snare their own husbands. Some of their 35 Key Rules for courtship and dating include: Don't talk to a man first. Don't stare at a man or talk too much. Don't go Dutch on a date or meet him anywhere. Have him pick you up. Don't call him. Rarely return his calls. Always end phone calls first. Don't accept a Saturday night date after Wednesday. Always end the date first. Stop dating him if he doesn't buy you a romantic birthday or Valentine's gift. Don't see him more than once or twice a week. Be honest but mysterious. Don't tell him what to do. Let him take the lead. Don't live with a man or leave things at his apartment. Don't do anything else but casual kissing on the first date. Don't rush into sex. Don't discuss "The Rules" with your therapist. |

| HAVING S-E-X FOR THE FIRST TIME (2/3) | ||||
FOR BOTH PARTNERS: How do I have "good" sex? What follows is not a set of rules. Rules about sex are impossible-- what should matter is that what you do makes you feel good. And "feeling good" should last past the sex itself-- you should not feel anxious afterwards about getting her pregnant or catching some horrible disease, so planning ahead about contraception and safe sex is part of the idea. What time should we have sex? When you have sex doesn't really matter. What should matter instead is that you and your partner have sex when you are both comfortable. Some people prefer to make love at the break of dawn, some in the afternoon sun, some in the darkness of night. More important than time of day is the time you have to spend. Give yourself a lot of time to have sex the first time. A weekend is ideal, but at least the whole day, including sleep time. Should we eat or drink anything before sex? Avoid eating a heavy meal, since that'll just make you sleepy. Eat light, don't drink too much alcohol, if any at all. It may help you shed inhibitions, but it may also make his erection much more difficult to achieve and you want to spend more time in the bedroom than the bathroom anyway, right? Where should we have sex? Where you have sex is probably a more important decision. Finding a place where you both can be private for up to forty-eight hours can be difficult at that age where most people are planning on losing their virginity. But it's worth it. Cars are no longer big enough to have sex in, and the outdoors has less privacy, bugs, sand, and pine needles. A bed is probably the best thing to make love in, still. Hopefully you'll have a room to yourself, with all the amenities that a bedroom affords, including heat, comfort, space, and the bathroom. Take a shower together! If you're about to have sex, you've probably had your hands all over each other before now. Get to know each other's bodies. Take your time. That's what lovemaking is about. What do we need to bring? Bring what you need to make you comfortable. Birth control, condoms, maybe your favorite pillow or a bathrobe. Will we come at the same time? Don't worry about making orgasm simultaneous. Some women do not orgasm during intercourse until they have gained experience, and even if you both are capable of climax, the odds are very much against the two of you coming together the first time. Enjoy yourselves, and rely on one another to tell the truth about what is pleasurable and what is satisfying. |
