    Leviathan Science Cabaret: Can Science Predict Love? lust, relationships, science | (2)
    Is love all just hormones? Perhaps its a culturally induced self-delusion? Next Friday, Leviathan (the people who brought you the Political Cabaret) are asking and trying to answer these questions. In a moment of self-deluded self-confidence I agreed to take part (public speaking, scary!). It should be a fun and informative evening though. You can read all about it here.

    Quarter of British women don’t have sex! evil trends, random surveys, relationships, sex and health, sexual frustration | (4)
    Yikes! According to a poll done by Sky Real Lives, 25% of UK women over 35 years old never have sex. The figure rises to 38% in Scotland. The same poll also found that almost all women suffer from violent mood swings during their period. I wonder how exactly these two findings are related... You can read the full story here. According to Toby Young (author of How to Lose Friends and Alienate People) this is because men have become so feminized that they are not really men any more. Interesting, but I ain't buying it. Read his take here.

    50% of women blame rape victim evil trends, opinions, sex laws | (6)
    Here's a rather shocking report from across the water. Haven, a sexual assault clinic, commissioned a survey of 1000 people of both sexes and found that half of women prefer to blame the victim of a sexual assault. While I agree that it is necessary to act in a responsible manner when out and about, it is shocking that in this day and age so many people have such a poor understanding of what sexual assault is. Just as worrying, one in three men don't think it's rape if they make their partners have sex when they don't want to. Read ...

    Eat Your Way to Better Sex better sex, sex and health | (1)
    I'm a girl who is fond of her food, so it's good to know that eating well can actually improve your sex life. Unfortunately food isn't an aphrodisiac and there isn't anything you can feed your partner that will get him or her in the mood straight away, but a smart diet is good for more than just your waistline. But, according to Health.com there are seven foods which really do improve sexual function and libido. These are avocado; almonds, strawberries; seafood; rocket (arugula); figs; and citrus fruit. All tasty! And strangely enough, five of these feature quite prominently in ...

    Would you sell your virginity? bizarre, evil trends, sex work | Comments Off
    Ah yes, another year and yet another story about a college girl auctioning off her virginity to pay for university. The latest one is a Kiwi known only as Unigirl who accepted an offer of over NZD45,000 (around 22,000 euro) for hers, which is a paltry sum compared to Natalie Dylan, an American who picked up a cool USD3.8 million for hers. The whole cash for hymen thing makes me feel a little queasy. Prostitution, it is said, is the oldest profession, and there are plenty of women who swap sex for financial gain in relationships or marriage. But I ...

    Would you use the ex’s sex toys? relationships, safe sex, sextoys | (16)
    Oh how I laughed when I read this... Bossy is an Aussie agony aunt (alliteration!) who tells it like it is. Here she answers a man who can't understand why his new girlfriend is not keen on using his ex's sex toys, despite the fact that he washed them! Read the full story here. The comments are pretty funny. Yeuch! There is no way in hell I'd ever use another woman's vibrator. It'd be like wearing a stranger's underwear, but worse... Sharing sex toys is not a good idea in general. Even if you clean them, you can spread STIs ...
