photo by VirtualErn An anthropologist claims that hot dinners — rather than sex — were the basis for early human marriages. A Kansas couple is robbed at knifepoint while having sex in a dumpster. Seriously, people, a dumpster? We try not to be judgmental around these parts when it comes to sex, but that’s just plain nasty. […]
We have a special place in our hearts for Sherri Williams: the owner of a sex toy store called Love Stuff in Hoover, Alabama, she has been fighting her state’s ban on sex toys since the law was enacted in 1998. Yep, you read right, 1998: this isn’t an antiquated law Williams is trying to […]
photo by dalbera The South African runner Caster Semenya recently withdrew from a competition amid speculation about her sex. The rumor is that she is intersex — or a hermaphrodite, as they used to say in the olden days. If it’s true, then it’s too bad she withdrew, as we would have loved to see the world of […]
photo by MGShelton We don’t like to toot our own horn….Oh, who are we kidding, we LOVE tooting our own horn! And so we’re pleased to announce that EMandLO.com was chosen as one of the top 100 lifestyle blogs out there by The Daily Reviewer. Now, we know that this is just an aggregating site […]
photo by [177] According to a recent study, men who are smart and funny may have healthier sperm, too. We can’t believe it: Last week we were praising Glamour magazine for publishing a photo of an average-sized woman; now this week we’re giving the thumbs up to Playboy (yes, Playboy) magazine, for their list of […]
STD toys from Giant Microbes A horrifying Swedish study finds that contracting STDs can make some young idiots men feel more manly. The NY Times weighs in on the health care debate…over penis pumps. They seem to endorse them. We’re not so sure. Speaking of health care, anti-choice zealots are making the debate all about […]
If you’ve listened to Howard Stern even once over the past decade (that’d be Em, not Lo), then you know that one of his most loyal advertisers is the Ashley Madison Agency — the online dating site that caters to married people with the tagline “Life is short. Have an affair.” Charming. On and off […]
photo by adactio We’ve always heard from our less-than-scrupulous guy friends that a wedding band lures single women in like flies to honey — apparently it works better even than a cute puppy or a baby bjorn. Though, we suppose if we’re going to be really fair, we should save the word “unscrupulous” for the […]
photo by CarbonNYC Study shows a broken heart may actually increase your risk of heart disease…but only in women. Just in case you thought the playing field was starting to get too even. Public health officials consider mandatory recommending routine circumcision — yes, here in the U.S. — to lower H.I.V. risk. The blogosphere’s skank […]
Pek Van Andel won the 1999 Ig Nobel Prize in medicine for a report published in the British Medical Journal on the world’s first MRI images of a couple’s sexual organs during actual intercourse. Well, Van Andel turned those images into a video, which is just now available online for the first time. Enjoy. Read […]
photo by audreyjm529 It seems like every few years, someone comes out with a study about what percentage of the population would choose a good night’s sleep over sex. The studies are usually sponsored by a mattress company, or a pharmaceutical firm developing non-addictive (riiiiight) sleeping pills, or — as in the most recent case […]
photo by babasteve In horrifying international news: A new Afghan bill allows a man to withhold food from his wife if she refuses his sexual demands. In no-duh news: Kids use the web to look up “sex.” Stewie from Family Guy is outed. Read the rest of this post on SUNfiltered
The Candie’s Foundation’s pro-abstinence tee We guess it was only a matter of time before the true-love-waits crew decided to use sex to sell abstinence. After all, if sex can sell anything — even, ew, toilet paper — why shouldn’t it be used to promote the very absence of sex? That’s so po-mo our heads […]
photo by dougwoods Wondering what’s the 2009 equivalent of “the dog ate my homework”? It’s “the cat downloaded my child porn.” Seriously. In the you’ve-got-to-be-f&#*ing-kidding-us department: South Korea paints parking spaces pink to designate them for women in heels. Kathy Griffin continues to endear herself to us by bringing Levi Johnston as her date for […]
photo by yaaaay Yawning before sex may actually be a good thing. Newsweek — yes Newsweek — has a whole polyamory extravaganza online. Yay, another excuse to drink! Red wine may increase a woman’s sex drive. Read the rest of this post on SUNfiltered
photo via Alessio85 The Berlusconi sex tapes leave us totally torn: On the one hand, what a sleazebag! On the other hand, it’s kind of sweet how he encourages the escort to masturbate more in order to improve her sex life… French women might not get fat, but these days they don’t go topless on […]
