Comment of the Week: Don’t Hide Your Porn Habit

photo via flickr I second the importance of ethical porn consumption and highly recommend Abby Winters, which is woman-owned and operated. It’s definitely better to bring up the topic of porn early on in a relationship, than to wait for it to come out when you get caught. If you hide it, it will seem […]

Comment of the Week: Don’t Spread Your Seed…All Over Your Hotel Room

photo via Flickr Our inner uninhibited adventurers are often in conflict with our inner Miss Manners, which is why we got a kick out of Matbo’s comment about the recent Confession “7 Reasons to Love Hotel Sex“: Oh the germs, the germs! Also I’m all for being loud in bed, but don’t exagerate (“won’t someone […]

Comment of the Week: Ladies, Stop Making Excuses, Start Asking Men Out

photo via flickr Men like it when women ask way more than women like it when men ask. A women who asks guys out will get way more dates than a guy who asks women out. I think sometimes women get rejected and then say that they were rejected because men don’t like aggressive women, […]

Comment of the Week: Shame On You, Em & Lo!

photo via flickr We recently published an article on this site called “10 Tips to Stop Hating Your Body Enough to Have Sex.” All of the tips were well-intentioned and most of the them were of the warm-fuzzy variety. But one of them, #9, stated: “Fuck like a dude. Make like a man and hook […]

Comment of the Week: EMandLO.com Really Works! It’s Tingly!

Denorex commercial Jackie, commenting on the post “10 Steps to Orgasming Without a Vibrator” I’ve had this problem for years. I always believed that I was in that group of women that just wasn’t stimulated enough during any kind of intercourse that didn’t include a vibrator to achieve an orgasm. I’ve actually withheld from any […]

Comment of the Week: Self Doubt Ain’t Sexy

photo via flickr Short term, you could probably get away with [covering your breasts during sex]. Long term, no way – and you shouldn’t try. Look, I don’t know what your boobs are like, but any (decent) guy who might be disappointed by them will be more disappointed by your crippling self-doubt. You don’t have […]

Comment of the Week: Women Get Erections Too

photo of clitorial erectile tissue We were actually going to put an asterisk on yesterday’s Wise Guy misstatement about the labia and clitoris not needing to be erect for sex*, but we got lazy. Fortunately for us, Dannie is a great regular commenter around these here parts: If the vulva isn’t engorged with blood, if […]

Email of the Week: Love Comes to Those Who Stop Hating Their Bodies

These are actually several emails over the past few months. We exchanged them with the reader who wrote into EMandLO.com about how hating her imperfect body was keeping her from having sex with a smoking hot guy: Butter Body: Hey, Em & Lo! So, I think that I just might (fingers, eyes, everything but legs […]

Comment of the Week: Love, Marriage and Strap-Ons

Comment of the Week: Who’s Impressed By Bedpost Notches?

A lot of females these days would make a lot of ASS-umptions about why a guy may not have dated at 22. I’m sure a lot of them would rather you had been with several women already perhaps? Some are too foolish to realize that alot of guys don’t run around f__king everything that moves […]

Comment of the Week: Stop the Presses! Women Have Libidos!

photo by Ranjit Laxman Photography We got a lot of thoughtful, interesting responses to the Wise Guys column “What If Her Libido Is Higher Than His?” that yes, many women do have higher libidos than men and no, they’re not nymphos. We can’t post them all, so just go read the comments section. Below is […]

Comment of the Week: Harmless Flirtation Is Like Harmless Drunk Driving

photo by Tjook Johnny had this to say in response to the post “Wise Guys: Is There Such a Thing as Harmless Flirtation?” The sexual thrill I get from mutual flirtation is very real. It stirs my sanguine humors, you could say. You could say that this is harmless in itself, but once my sanguine […]

Comment of the Week: More on the Orgasm Gap

image from nDevilTV Clandestine, commenting on a study that showed women orgasm about 80% as often as men do in close relationships but only 32% as often in first hookups: I’d suggest that a broader explanation [for the orgasm gap] may be that our definition of sex is very intercourse-focused, and we conventionally define sex […]

Comment of the Week: Don’t Yuck My Yum
