Solutions to Painful Sex
It is something we don't really like to think about, but sometimes we do have to deal with experiencing pain during sex. Now, I'm not referring to the pain we choose to participate in, such as BDSM. Rather, there are conditions, illnesses, injuries, and more that can occur because of sex or other activities that can cause a person to experience pain or discomfort when they're supposed to feel good. This excellent guide highlights some of the common sources of pain for women and how to deal with them.
What the Fuck, Dr. Ruth?
The venerable sex educator made some shocking statements about consent in a radio interview recently, which cast a shadow over her reputation as a sex educator. Westheimer noted that once a man and woman are naked in bed together, that saying no or stopping is impossible. Of course, this flies in the face of all that the sex education community is trying to teach about consent and how it can be withdrawn at any time. Dr. Ruth tried to couch her argument in teachings from the Talmud, but various Rabbis have called bullshit. This isn't the first time Dr. Ruth has made questionable statements about consent. So, let's hope people begin to understand that as much as she's been an institution in the field of sex education, she might need to do some learnin' herself.
Practice Safer Online
Just when you think you're safe online...NO! Don't ever think you're safe online. There have long been concerns about the safety of you information on Fetlife, the hugely popular site to create a sexy, pervy profile. However, this discovery by the fine folks at Kink Ontario proves that you have to be vigilant if you want to maintain any kind of privacy online. They're right: people are always trying to mine data, and if they're trying to get sex-related details then you might be in for a great shock if your photos or information are revealed to a greater audience. Depending on your circumstances, there could be difficult consequences if people find out about your sexual choices and desires. There shouldn't be...but we've got to keep working on that.
