On June 26, 2015 the United States Supreme Court legalized gay marriage across the country. Gay marriage will shift the landscape of sexuality and marriage forever. Here’s what that means for your sex life.
Read more about why gay marriage is a good thing for everyone in Chris’ article on YourTango here.
From the Supreme Court Majority Decision on gay marriage:
The ancient origins of marriage confirm its centrality, but it has not stood in isolation from developments in law and society. The history of marriage is one of both continuity and change. That institution—even as confined to opposite-sex relations—has evolved over time.

We recently received an email about ATM sex as depicted in porn. Here is the question we received:
i am curious how in porn you see a girl having anal and then he pulls it out and she gives him head. this can not taste good?! is there some prepping that they do like flavored enemas? thank you for your time, Norma
There are many questions about ATM sex. In this podcast episode, we answer all your questions and get real about ATM sex and other extreme sex acts you see in porn.
ATM sex stands for “ass to mouth sex” meaning switching from anal sex to oral sex.
Anal in porn was once specialty niche. Now, it is common. Porn is constantly pushing the edges of extreme to compete in crowded marketplace. ATM sex is just one way porn is pushing the edge of what is depicted as common.
The problem is, porn is fantasy. But unlike Hollywood, porn has no stunt actors or special effects, so they are using real bodies to do dangerous things. There is also no education about what is safe to do at home and what should be left to the fantasy world of porn. In short, porn is NOT a model of what you should be doing at home.
ATM sex is a high risk sexual activity. You can easily spread parasites and bacteria with ATM sex. If you really want to do this sex act, use a condom for anal, take it off and use a fresh condom for oral sex. Even then, there is still a risk of infection because condoms don’t cover everything.
Switching from anal to vaginal sex is also dangerous. Again, the spread of bacteria from one to the other is not safe. Use new condoms every time you switch orifices.
For most people ATM sex is going to remain a fantasy. If you do want to try it out, make sure to do so safely!

Chocolate, Asparagus, Horny Goat Weed…
Oysters, Ginseng, Rhino Horn…
Are these the tools of Aphrodite?
Aphrodisiacs are foods and herbs meant to increase libido and enhance sexual performance.
The word Aphrodisiac comes from the goddess of love and sexuality, Aphrodite.
All cultures around the world and throughout time celebrate certain foods or herbs as aphrodisiacs.
Some are considered aphrodisiacs because they make your heart race, like spicy peppers.
Some foods look a lot like genitals, so were associated with eroticism, like the very phallic asparagus or the seductive pomegranate.
Others foods were considered seductive because they are are rare and precious, such as truffles or chocolate.
Other aphrodisiac foods provided rare nutrients and thus boosted health, such as zinc rich oysters. Looking back in time, it is easy to see the many reasons certain foods were revered and associated with eroticism.
But are there aphrodisiacs that actually work? Hit “play” on the podcast player above to hear our take on the aphrodisiacs that will really work for you over time – and to find out which ones to avoid.
