9 Reasons to Have Sex Right Now!

  1. Sex is the Ultimate Anti-Aging Solution. Studies show that people who engaged in sex 55-116 times a year looked up to a year to 2 years younger. Some people who were engaging in sex at a healthy frequency were reported to look up to 8 years younger.
  2. Sex Doubles your Life Expectancy. Those in studies who recounted having more frequent orgasms had double the life expectancy than those who experienced sex less frequently.
  3. Sex Burns Calories. That’s right. For every 30 minutes of sexual activity, you burn approximately 200 calories. More calories are burned if you and your partner are trying especially difficult sex positions!
  4. Sex Boosts your Immunity. Sex helps to saturate your blood with immunoglobulin A, an antibody that boosts your immunity by protecting your body from infections.
  5. Sex Feels Great & Boosts your Mood! Of course we all know sex feels great and with good reason! Sex releases endorphins which help make us feel good and more content in life. Evidence also shows that semen acts as a natural antidepressant.
  6. Sex Relieves Stress & Pain. Sex sends out lots of feel good chemicals into the body during sex which, of course, relieves stress and can even be a natural pain killer. Sex can aid you in pains from menstrual cramps, muscle soreness, and even headaches.
  7. Sex Gives your Body a Healthy Boost. Aside from the emotional benefits, sex also assists in tissue repair such as wound healing and improves cognitive functions while promoting healthy bone growth.
  8. Sex Makes you Glow. Sex promotes collagen production which helps to keep your skin looking firm and supple while giving it a nice healthy glow. Sex also offers the benefits of shiny hair and strong nails.
  9. Lower your Risk for Disease. Your risk of heart disease and hypertension are lowered with sex by improved blood flow to your organs, the dilation of blood vessels  lowers blood pressure, and of course the overall stress relief.

Masturbation: Victorian Vs. Modern Society

Hello Everyone!

I’m back this week with another edition of Victorian Naughtiness… or something of the like. This week’s topic is masturbation. What was the public opinion on the matter? Did people EVER masturbate or??

Find out more below!

In Victorian times, masturbation was seen as a downright moral disgrace. Completely shunned by society, masturbation was even believed to cause heart disorders, cancer and hysteria (hello! OBVIOUSLY this one is true ;). Some even claimed that while it may not cause the 3 former conditions (Wth? they don’t even know?), it would surely worsen an existing health concern. It would also, undoubtedly, lead to hopeless insanity that was inheritable by your offspring. So, ladies and gentleman, be wary of masturbation as it is literally a sickness that can be transferred to your children! (hehe, kidding!)

Lastly, in the rarest of cases, some women accused of masturbation were subject to clitoridectomy (removal of clitoris). In extreme and extremely rare cases, even children or babies thought to be touching themselves might be subjected to clitoridectomy (not sure why little boys and men never were; can you guess?) and forever shamed by society or sent to convents. In spite of it all, masturbation was most likely still practiced during this time although it was likely a VERY personal secret due to the serious consequences one subjected themselves to if caught in the act. It is even more likely that masturbation was rare, not due to lack of desire, but only due to fear of the repercussions.

Back to the present! Thank goodness, all that talk of clitoridectomy really freaks me out. Thankfully, in modern days, society frowns upon the act of clitoridectomy rather than encourages it. Nowadays, masturbation is much more acceptable and sometimes even openly discussed among peers. Sex has graciously become a topic widely discussed as the years rush on. Still, with all the open minds, there are small populations of people who still consider masturbation immoral and wrong, specifically certain religious sects who believe this practice to be a sin against God and a way to bring Satan into your life(I do not believe in this!). I have actually even found websites that claim masturbation to be harmful to the body which I believe is completely and totally false. Studies have shown that masturbation and sex are both physically beneficial to the body, the heart, and your immunity. Whatever your beliefs, I humbly beg you to visit a credible medical website (WebMD is a good one!) or contact your primary physician with your concerns.

9 Healthy Foods To Improve Libido & Sexual Arousal Vol. 1

With the New Year, everyone is trying to find ways to get in shape and live a healthier, more fulfilling lifestyle and, with that, comes the desire to enjoy ourselves as well. I, myself, have my own resolutions which include a resolution I believe everyone should employ: Have MORE Sex! We’re all busy all the time and sometimes, we take our partners for granted. Aside from the obvious pleasure gained from safe, consensual fun, sex also boosts immunity, contentment with life and overall well being. With that being said, here are 9 great food that will naturally boost your libido in 2011:

  • Oysters: A timeless aphrodisiac, oysters are high in zinc, which raises sperm and testosterone levels. Zinc is also essential to reproductive functions in both men and women. Further, oysters contain dopamine, a hormone known to increase libido.

  • Bananas: Containing bromelain enzymes which are believed to increase libido and reverse impotency in men, bananas are also a great source of potassium and B vitamins, all of which increase overall energy levels.

  • Avocado: Avocado assists with metabolizing proteins in the body to give us more energy. They contain vitamin B6 and potassium, both of which increase libido in men and women.

  • Almonds & Other Nuts: Almonds and other nuts contain essential fatty acids also known as EFA’s which offer raw energy and encourage the healthy production of male hormones.

  • Mixed Berries & Other Fruits: Aside from being high in antioxidants and being generally good for you on the whole, all natural fruits provide energy to you and, when eaten 30 minutes to 1 hour before sex, can also make your secretions taste sweeter! Delicious spunk, literally, and all you have to do is eat delicious fruits of your choice. YUM!

  • Eggs: Aside from being high in protein for raw energy, eggs are also rich in vitamins B5 & B6 which help balance out hormone levels and fight stress, which is the ultimate murderer of your sex drive.

  • Chocolate (Especially Dark Chocolate): Chocolate, especially dark chocolate, is high in antioxidants which are great for your body’s overall health, including fighting aging, reducing stress and boosting your mood. Aside from that, chocolate contains an alkaloid called theobromine which works similar to caffeine by amping up your energy levels. Chocolate releases endorphins to make you feel happy and content and contains phenylethylamine, the chemical credited with producing the feeling of being in love.

  • Salmon, Tuna & Other Fish: A good source of Protein, B Vitamins, and other Nutrients, all of which are vital to reproductive health.

  • Watermelon: Watermelons are rich in citruline, which improves blood flow to the heart and sex organs.
