Good design used to be completely unheard of in the world of sex accessories — neither function nor form was particularly paid attention to, whether it was a vibrator or a pair of latex undies.

We were too young to realize it at the time, but Corey Haim’s Lucas (1986) showed us exactly why the band geek makes a better boyfriend than the captain of the football team. We were recently saddened to hear of the passing of Corey. He was just 38 years old, which is tragic beyond belief. […]

According to Cellphones.org, 15% of Americans have interrupted sex to answer a cellphone call. Speaking of modern life messing with our booty, apparently Americans are […]
photo by je@n Go ahead: try to answer that question. It’s tougher than you might think. Does it mean intercourse? Then how do gay people “have sex”? Does it involve penetration? Then what about those who only climax from external stimulation? Does it involve orgasm? Then what about all the women who’ve had sexual relations […]
photo by daveynin We were going to write about Robert Pattinson’s joke misfire in which he told Details magazine that he’s “allergic to vagina” (we read his “explanation” and we still don’t get it). But then our friends at Planned Parenthood sent us a link to this awesome Washington Post profile of PP’s Dr. Carol Ball, who travels 200 […]
photo by benstein Okay, so we know this article was written by a high schooler and all, but we can’t help being fascinated by the statistic she mentions that 20% of new divorce cases in the US include the word “Facebook” in them. Australian study shows that despite drugs that sharply reduce the concentration of […]
photo via TheStar.com A restaurant in Canada that jokingly (they say) invited diners to have Valentine’s Day sex in its unisex bathroom would now rather forget about the offer. Apparently not everyone got the “joke” part. President Jacob Zuma of South Africa acknowledged that he fathered one child out of marriage, which contradicts the government’s HIV/AIDS campaign […]

Tell CBS to pull the lame anti-choice ad they’re running during the Super Bowl. Scientists have finally solved the mystery of how one tiny […]
photo by Marina(im.back) You might have seen the headlines this week that read “Rise in Teen Pregnancy Rates.” Of course what’s missing from that title is the fact that these are not real-time figures they’re talking about. The 3% rise in teen pregnancies among 15-to-19-year-olds increased between 2005 and 2006 — the first jump since […]

In the wake of rumors that Tiger Woods’ is seeking help at an addiction center, sex therapists, professors, and psychologists are left pondering whether sex addiction really exists. […]
photo by MACSURAK Oh man, we love behind-the-scenes hotel dirt. Like this recent report from the Novotel chain, claiming that one of their employees was hit on the head by a sex toy thrown over a balcony by an angry husband. Also, apparently hotel guests have left behind items including a $16,000 necklace, fake limbs, […]
photo by paalia A new study making headlines found that 29% of British women think fitting into their old jeans is better than sex. But we prefer to think of it this way: 71% of women think that sex is better than getting into their skinny jeans. See? The body image police aren’t exactly winning this […]
It doesn’t have much to do with love or sex, but it being New Year’s Eve and all we couldn’t resist pointing out art director Phillip Niemeyer’s “op-chart” from Sunday’s New York Times called “Picturing the Past 10 Years.” Read each row from left to right and you get a quick graphic recap of the decade’s evolution […]
photo by AFlickion New research shows that young adults who have casual sex are no more likely than those in committed relationships to experience psychological problems. Well, thank goodness for that then. Lady Gaga tells Barbara Walters that she’s bisexual and has had sex with women — but has only fallen in love with men. “Ah […]

According to the latest research by 60 Minutes and Vanity Fair mag, zero percent of people aged 18-44 are likely to kiss a co-worker at their office holiday party. A study finds that a penis-numbing spray can help prevent premature ejaculation and may hit the marketplace soon. […]
Adam Lambert calls the west coast feed editing of his American Music Awards performance this past Sunday (which included simulating receiving oral sex and tonguing a dude) “discrimination.” A new study analyzed 914 films released widely between 2001 and 2005 and concluded that “sex and nudity do not, on the average, boost box office performance, […]
