Socks in bed isn’t the sexiest thing in the world.
If you brave the foot-warmer style during sexy-funtime, you’ve either got to be very comfortable with your lover, despise your own feet or be one of those people that’s constantly cold.
As unfetching as the naked-but-with-socks look can be (although it might suit some people…), science has shown keeping your socks on during sex can help you reach orgasm.
A study from the University of Groningen found keeping your socks on during sex raised the probability of reaching orgasm from 50% to 80%(!). …
I’ve always been a night-owl. As a toddler I’d be wide awake at 2am and enjoy the deepest slumber during mid-morning, much to the dismay of my parents who both had jobs to wake up for.
In school I was never quite switched on until about 10–10.30am each morning, meaning whatever class I had at 9am would go completely over my head.
As a teenager I relished sleeping in until midday and at university I would regularly opt to spend nights in the library, often not starting my study until post 6pm.
A common theme persisted across my life and…
Some studies say as many as 90% of women can’t reach orgasm through penetrative sex alone.
That’s a massive number, and if you are one of those women (or know someone who is), you’ll be pleased to know that getting there is very likely within your reach.
Achieving a vaginal orgasm, whether you’re self-experimenting or giving to a lover, is firstly about understanding female physiology.
The female body is an amazing thing and is capable of at least 8 different types of orgasm (that I’m aware of, at least). Compare that to the grand total of two orgasms that men…
I’ve often heard people say “the world is full of bad news.” It’s true; bad news does seem to be everywhere but that doesn’t mean good news doesn’t exist, it just doesn’t get nearly as much airtime. Bad news spreads like wildfire, but good news only reaches a few people and then seems to stop.
It’s because of Negativity Bias; the natural human tendency to focus on the bad side rather than the good.
It’s obvious if you think about it. Recall a time you received a compliment. Maybe a lover told you how beautiful you are or a stranger…
This Gamestop situation is fascinating. Gamestop is a computer-game selling US retailer who have struggled the past year, partly due to pandemic, partly because they’re a legacy business that sells physical games and partly for other reasons.
Gamestop’s share price didn’t really move much for the first 8 months of 2020; it traded between $3–5 per share, but that changed post Sept when it went up to around $14/share by November. This month (Jan 2020) it skyrocketed to an all-time-high of around $340/share.
That’s an 8500% rise. But what gives? …

Bitcoin (BTC) is the world’s first and most well-known cryptocurrency. It’s a digital currency and can only be bought, held and traded electronically.
It’s on everyone’s lips right now because at the time of writing 1 Bitcoin is worth around $40,000. …
Cocaine is probably the world’s most popular hard drug. Produced mostly in Colombia and consumed by the rest of the world, especially the US and UK, the cocaine market has an estimated global value of $120billion.
Where does the characteristic euphoric & energetic high come from though? And why can it be so addictive?
Cocaine’s neural mechanism is fascinating and affects the brain more deeply than we first realised.
For as long as I can remember I’ve loved music.
At 3 I was dancing in front of the TV to Smooth Criminal, at 9 I convinced my parents to buy me a rap compilation album (much to their confusion) and since I’ve enjoyed all-sorts, from opera, trance, classical and K-pop.
In today’s world we have music as the backdrop to almost anything we do and we can take it anywhere we go.
If art is how we decorate space, then music is how we decorate time.
Over the years I noticed an occasional feeling which crept up on me…
It seems easier and easier to fall into a low mood these days. Depression and anxiety rates are now generally higher than they’ve been before and the year we’ve had really hasn’t helped.
Not having much to look forward to can really impact your mood negatively, as can a lack of variety and over-familiarity of the space you occupy. Lethargy and low-mood can slowly creep in, but luckily there are some very easy, proven methods to lift yourself out of it.
Simply and easy. The way you breathe is strongly connected to how you feel.
If you find yourself stressed…
When I was a younger I thought ‘wouldn’t it be amazing to have a f*ck buddy!’
A friend you can banter with, knock back a few drinks with, shag and then say ‘see ya later!’ without any messy feelings, jealousy or expectations. Just two mates chilling and boning whenever they felt like it.
I’ll caveat here, I had this thought when I was in my mid-teens, before I’d ever been in a relationship or come anywhere close to having sex. …
