According to condom pioneers Durex, the message is simple: condoms are the only form of protection that can help stop the transmission of STIs and prevent pregnancy. And we happen to agree with them.

In this day and age, with so many different colours, textures and varieties of condoms available, there is no excuse for not protecting yourself and your lover from infection and unplanned pregnancy.

This guide will explain exactly why condoms are so important, how to use them and how to choose the right style of condom to suit your needs.

Condoms are truly unsung heroes.

Not only do they prevent unplanned pregnancies and STIs, they let us experience new sensations, they help sex last longer, and - if we are being really honest – they make the post-coital clean up oh so simple.

Condoms only want what’s best for us, yet we make them the butt of our jokes, we use them for bizarre internet challenges, and we don’t appreciate them as much as we should.

It’s a modern-day injustice, so I’m here to play devil’s advocate for the humble condom. Brace yourself – I’m about to drop some serious truth bombs.

We’ve all had those moments where we aren’t physically with someone, but we can’t help but think of all the sexy things we’d love to be doing with them right then.

Whether it’s a partner of years or just someone really hot who you’re casually talking to, the urge to get them as turned on as you are is an exciting thought.

Sexting is an awesome tool for setting the mood and making your intentions known. However, not all of us are pros at this particular activity, and expressing yourself sexually via the written word can often come less naturally than expression in physical form.

It has been a learning curve from when I first started engaging in sexting a few years ago, but as someone who feels they have come a long way and become more comfortable over time, here are my top ten do’s and don’ts to make sexting an exciting, enjoyable and non-intimidating experience every time.

Regardless of what anyone tells you, taking nude photos is an art form.

Though many of us may just believe it's a matter of 'point-and-snap', there's actually a lot more to it if you want your photo to do your body justice.

Just as with any good photo, you have to think about framing, lighting, position, and many other things if you really want to get that jaw-dropping effect.

While most of us are aware that a lot of work goes into a fantastic sensual photo, it should nonetheless look like it's effortless.

So here are a few tips to help ensure your pictures are of top quality, every single time.

Wednesday saw the opening ceremony of the 2016 Paralympics in Rio, and in true Olympic fashion, it blew us all away.

But when the athletes aren't hard at work breaking records in track and field, they're busy breaking beds in the Olympic village, with nearly half a million condoms being distributed throughout both the Olympics and the Paralympics.

Though it's often perceived that there's something of a taboo around sexuality and disability, we Lovehonians strongly believe that sexual satisfaction should be available for everyone.

So with this in mind, we've trawled through [[stats:reviews]] of our customer reviews to find the finest recommendations for differently-abled pleasure - all as chosen by you.

When you think of Good Housekeeping magazine, you're probably met with images of recipe ideas, vacuum cleaner product reviews and articles about how to get your soufflé to rise just right.

What you might not associate with this straight-laced publication is their totally-filthy, annual Tried and Tested survey to find the best sex toys on the market.

Well now you know, and guess what? We came out on top (this is our favourite position FYI).

Lovehoney Community member Shadow Collector is one very lucky lady. Not only did she receive a Secret Wishlist Present from an anonymous forum friend, but we've also chosen the review she wrote of it as our Review of the Month. The prize? £100 to spend at Lovehoney!

We loved her in-depth review of the Icicles No 24 Tentacle Glass Dildo. She even pointed out features we hadn't noticed, like the perineum stimulation offered by the textured nubs:

"The raised glass nodules provide the kind of feelings that, previous to this toy, I only have imagined existed. There is nothing that can compare to the cool, firm feel of glass. Furthermore, the handle’s shaped so that with every thrust it’ll also tickle the anus."

"To the amazing person who blessed me with the Icicles No. 24, thank you. You've changed my outlook on sex toys for the better, and it was already pretty darn positive. I love this piece and any texture aficionados will love it as well."
