BDSM For Vanilla Lovers - An Introduction

 

Recently one of the Orgasm Army (the LoveHoney Community members) posted a thread in our forums about female dominance. Her partner was asking her to be more dominant in bed and she wanted to know how to go about this without hurting him. It raised a little alarm in my mind. Do people really equate dominance with inflicting pain? Granted, I can see where media has played its tawdry part in this mindset, but living in my own little bubble I presumed that the world of dominance had much more understanding.

 

The more I've looked into the vanilla viewpoint, the more I've realised just how many misconceptions there are revolving around the BDSM acronym - not just the domination aspect. BDSM stands for Bondage, Domination, Sadism and Masochism or Bondage & Discipline / Domination & Submission / Sadism and Masochism - depending on your interpretation. I personally opt for the latter (as the submission and discipline elements of BDSM, which the acronym fails to account for, are just as important) and it's this definition that I'll be exploring in segments over my next few Blogs.

How To Do Pelvic Floor Exercises and Why You Should - The Legacy of Dr Kegel's Exercisers

 

You may have heard the word 'Kegel' banded about over the years and maybe noticed some of our Kegel exercisers and wondered, “what do these mystical tools do?"

In 1948 Dr Arnold Kegel wrote about the sexual health benefits of toning the pelvic floor – A group of muscles that sits in the hollow of the pelvis surrounding the groin. Championed by midwives, doctors, and everyone else who takes the time to do them, the practice of exercises that contract the PC muscles are beneficial to sexual sensations in both men and women.

Just like other muscles, the pelvic floor can be pumped, primed and buffed and it's a sexercise routine worth getting into. By undertaking Kegel exercises every day you will create a more powerful sensation during arousal, a tighter vaginal canal for the girls and bigger, better, longer orgasms for all. You'll also gain some boring health-related benefits such as improved continence and the lesser likelihood of having vaginal complications post-pregnancy – but we're mainly in it for the sex.

The Best Vibrators For Your Handbag

A woman's handbag is a sacred place. A Pandora's box filled with secrets, surprises and the tools of alchemy. So it's surprising that we don't always take into account our sexual health and gratification when packing our weapons of choice.

For all of the products labelled as a 'handbag vibrator' and the reels of erotica in which a dominant woman pulls an arsenal of sex toys from her very small, but clearly well planned-out clutch bag, I still think I'm alone amongst my girlfriends in carrying a petite mini vibe alongside my make-up. It's really time that changed.

Here's my hand-picked selection of the best vibrators for your handbag...

Latex Clothing - How to Wear, How to Care and How to Shine!

Natural latex is considered to be a 'living' material. Much like leather, it requires care and attention to stay healthy. I have had several disasters with rubber – nails straight through a shirt one Erotica, another Erotica my latex dress literally disintegrated as I walked into Olympia and then there was the infamous Valentine's dress that dissolved off of the hanger as it hung in the hallway. Latex clothing becomes sentimental, so it's worth knowing how to look after it before you lose too many garments to misinformation.

The LoveHoney Guide to Erotic Massage

Foreplay doesn’t just have to be a kiss and a cuddle within the confines of the bedroom. In fact, erotic massage is the perfect way to connect physically and emotionally before any naughty activity.

One of the leading causes of reduced libido and lack of sex drive is stress. With so many people working long hours in high pressure jobs, it’s no wonder that sex seems to be the last thing on many people’s minds.

From a five minute foot massage to a full-body deep tissue massage, this kind of touching is guaranteed to relax the body, soothe the mind and give you a raunchy night to remember!

Top Five Sex Toys To Help You Squirt

Squirting has taken the porn world by storm and more and more women are finding that it’s not just a film-fantasy but something they can do themselves!

Female ejaculation happens when the Skene’s gland is stimulated from inside the vagina. Linked to the G-spot, the Skene’s gland is a special nub that fills with fluid when rubbed or caressed, making it larger and easier to locate.

Genital Piercings - From 'Oh Holy Mother of God, That Hurt' to 'Wow, That's Sexy!'

Genital Piercings - From 'Oh Holy Mother of God, That Hurt' to 'Wow, That's Sexy!'

Shoving a piece of metal through your delicate parts will never sound appealing but the promise of extra stimulation, easier orgasms and more intense sensations is definitely tempting.

Both men and women get genital piercings and do so for a variety of reasons. Some just like the way they look, some like the extra sensations they create and others use it as a shiny, silver indicator of "hey, lick here!"

Genital piercing has been practiced for hundreds of years (that's how the Prince Albert piercing got its name after all) meaning that the art has advanced in leaps and bounds but it has also wrongfully led to urban legends and fact becoming intertwined in some warped story about how your uncle's, best friend's, sister's, post man got his penis pierced by a witch doctor and then his arse fell off.

So to prevent your arse falling off (or any other appendage) make sure you separate fact from fiction* before you consider your first genital piercing.
