From It Pleases Me:

Have you taken InnerVibe’s Passionality Quizyet?  I did, and I scored a 54- The Progressive.

What’s Passionality? Your Passionality are the unique characteristics that define you as a sexual person.  But it’s much more than that- it’s an attitude, it’s about following that spark of passion inside you, trusting your intuition and your desires, listening to that little voice that says, “This feels good….LET”S DO IT!”

Sadly, many of us neglect our poor little Passionalities.  We hold back.  We’re afraid to be honest with ourselves, to be open with our partners, and honestly, we fear sexuality- ours and others.  And guess who pays the price?  YOU!

Embracing your sexuality is vital to your overall well-being and happiness.  It’s something that should be celebrated, don’t you think?  After all, everybody’s doin’ it.  We’d be in big trouble if they weren’t.  Take note, pandas.

When it comes to sex, we often focus on the destination, not the journey.  I, for one, am guilty of this.  It takes effort on my part to slow down and enjoy the ride, so to speak.  :)

Don’t get me wrong, I’m pro-orgasm.  But shouldn’t the pursuit of sexual pleasure encompass more than that?  There are other areas of pleasure  that are worth exploring all on their own.

You know how the French like to sit in a plaza, sipping, snacking, people watching, and basking in the warmth of a rising or setting sun?  Do that in your bedroom.  Think about it- what are they really doing?

• savoring the food
• feeling the sun warming their skin
• listening to the relaxing chatter of pigeons and strangers
• taking in the scent of the plaza
• watching the world move around them

They engage all of their senses.  Is there a reason why we shouldn’t do the same in our bedrooms?  This is the key to sensuality.  All help you discover your Passionality.  Everyone is different, so what engages your senses are unique to you.  Everyone deserve a happy and fulfilling sex life, but you have to want it.  You have to make an effort to be open minded and go after what you desire and nourish this part of yourself.

When we learn that there is nothing wrong with being the sexual person Nature or God intended you to be, we can be more open to others’ sexuality.  We have to learn that there is no such thing as a “normal” sex life because we’re all different.  Trust your inner resources, trust yourself to be sexual.  Believe that, and you’ll empower yourself.

It’s Spring.  It’s the season of new life, blossoming flowers, and cute bunnies going at it like jackhammers.  And you should be too!

From It Pleases Me:

I’ve been hitting the gym lately, kittens.  It feels like my body has been beyond sore and stiff for over a month!  But I’ve got to keep on keepin’ on if I want to look as close to this as possible come June.

So I’ve started a routine of soaking my poor muscles in a sea salt bath for an hour a week.  I can’t praise salt soaks enough!  Not only are they relaxing, but they also soothe your muscles and soften your skin.  I’ve also read that Epsom salt is great for skin health because it draws toxins and heavy metals the body.

As you can see, I’m a huge fan of baths, and I have a ton of salt soaks to choose from.  This isn’t even all of my salts!  I love using therapeutic healing bath salts made of fragrance infused Dead Sea salts.  Hello, nourished skin!

Here’s my routine:

• Drop a handful of bath salts in the water as the tub fills up.
• Immerse your body, relax and enjoy… for a looong time.

So simple!

But since I’m a bit frisky by nature, I like to throw in some tips to get a partner involved:

• First of all, baths are an awesome way to get your sensual juices flowing…  Wait, that came out wrong.  But you know what I mean! 
• Lay a towel on the floor next to the tub.  Nothing kills the mood like a concussion.
• Scatter tea lights around the bathroom.
• Play sexy music, like Robin Thicke.  (OMG love him!)
• Turn off the lights, and turn your partner on.

“Good sex is like good bridge. If you don’t have a good partner, you’d better have a good hand.” – Mae West

From AARP.org:

1) Plan ahead of time so that expectations and reality have something in common. If you want a cute bed-and-breakfast, that is fine. But find out whether or not you have your own bathroom or if you are right next to another couple (too inhibiting). Look up the reviews to see if people liked the way it looked once they got there. Pictures can be deceiving.

2) To avoid rush hour, leave on Friday afternoon if you can, instead of Friday night. If you are hassled and frustrated while getting out of town, those feelings can spill over on the weekend. Who needs to start down in a hole trying to climb out?

3) Pick a place you both will love. If he hates chintz, do not make him stay in a room that looks like an English garden. If she resents golf, do not go to a place that is organized around your sport. You are supposed to be each other’s obsession on this getaway.

4) Bring a bottle of champagne or port or something celebratory, to put the two of you in a great mood the next morning. Or tell each other to bring some sexier-than-usual lingerie to set the mood. Hey, do both!

5) Make a promise about cell phones, BlackBerrys, and the like. If you cannot bear to be away from them, at least make a deal only to use them one hour or so a day, and at a mutually selected time. Show that you can concentrate on each other.

6) Never underestimate the power of your nose. Bring perfumes, lotions, bath oils, and massage oils to anoint yourself and your partner. Use scented shampoo. One night or morning, wash each other’s hair, or apply the lotion or perfume on each other’s body. It is a sexy process, and the aroma will be at least mildly arousing all day.

7) Eat your big meal in the afternoon, and have a light meal in the evening. A really big dinner makes sex less likely. Remember that this is a sexy getaway—not just a getaway!

Check out what kinds of beds and sheets your getaway place has. You would be amazed at what a difference it makes to have a really luxurious bed. Westin, Sheraton, the Four Seasons, and some of the other hotel chains brag about their beds and sheets. They can make you feel sexy; and after that, you can get a good night’s sleep. That’s a perfect combination.

9) Bring a sexy or romantic book or movie. Help create the mood from the beginning.

10) Remember that this is just one weekend. Everything doesn’t have to be perfect, and not every day has to have a tryst. If you end up hugging, kissing, touching, and just giving each other pleasure, you are way ahead. Don’t burden each other with expectations that would make 25-year-olds nervous.

This Christmas, it pays to be naughty.  FINALLY!

Egypt conservatives have called for a ban of a kit produced in China that simulates the breaking of a hymen.  The controversial “virginity kit”contains a device with a small pouch of a blood-like substance that, when punctured by the penis during intercourse, simulates the breaking of the hymen.

Conservatives claim that the kit breaks Islamic law and promotes promiscuity.

From ChattahBox:

“While many have said it is a strong social statement against hypocrites who state that women must remain pure while male sexual relations are ignored, Sheik Sayed Aska, member of the Muslim Brotherhood, said that it ‘encourages illicit sexual relations. Islamic culture forbids these relations except within the confines of marriage.’

The kit is significantly more simple and less expensive that hymen reconstructive surgery, which is commonly performed at secret clinics in the Middle East, where honor killings are more frequent than many would expect.”

We long for the day when a human life is worth more than a hymen, and when women around the world will never need to buy these kits to ensure their safety.

Ijustmadelove.com shows you on a Google map where people have just made love. Of course, it requires couples who just had sex to remember not to fall asleep or have a cigarette, but instead to go online.  That’s beside the point.  You can search by the last hour, day, week, or month. Fun concept, which plays into a question that we all ask ourselves: “Am I sexually normal?”  If enough people were actually honest about their bedroom activities, the map would prove only one thing though – That there is NO normal. Now go out there and mark your territory!

From: It Pleases Me

The only thing normal about sex is that there is no such thing as normal. Our sexual preferences are just as unique as our taste in food. I don’t like the taste or texture of mushrooms, does that make me abnormal? Nope! Some women love getting it through the back door- still not abnormal!

Let’s not confuse normal with common though. It’s common to wear skinny jeans with pumps but it’s not normal. It’s common to “double click your mouse” so to speak, but not normal (or abnormal!). Preferences are neither. They just are.

To carry that note even further, let’s not correlate uncommon with weird! I’ve been in this industry long enough to know that what you may think is weird is actually very, very common. Confused yet?

Some of us like to believe we lead adventurous sex lives, other lament over their vanilla bedroom play. But you’d be surprised how very refreshingly average your darkest fantasies or uneventful romps are.

So to celebrate the wonderfully average, commonly weird sex lives of us all, here is a fun Didja Know quiz from Women’s Health Mag.

For those of you that want to go straight to the results, the questions and answers are after the jump.
