Hot Sox: Eco-Menstruation and Period Sex

30 Aug

Yeah, the Hot Sox podcast is back and this week we’re seeing red (RIP Jani Lane). Periods! Blood! Sex! Menstrual Pads! Diva cups! That’s what we talk about live (at the time of taping) from Vancouver, BC. I hope you’re ready for an honest conversation around menstruation because that’s what you’ll get on this week’s Hot Sox [...]

Hot Sox: Sex and Aging

17 Jun

This week’s Hot Sox Podcast features pro-aging sexpert, Joan Price, whose recent book Naked At Our Age discusses a myriad of subjects including “elder sex,” sex after death, cancer, online dating, viagra, erectile dysfunction and what to do when a woman loses her sex drive after menopause (this is quite common apparently). We discuss these [...]

Sex Toy Review: Fairy Baby Vibe

16 Jun

Meet the Fairy Baby, a teeny-tiny wand-like vibrator that recharges via USB cord. Fairy Baby is part of MerciToys line of Fairy Wand toys and attachements, and it’s tiny enough for even your Barbie to use. Okay, that’s weird, but I said it in the video and I wrote it here, so I admit to [...]

Boys will be girls. Girls will be boys.

14 Jun

Image via stampinmom/flickr At a family baby shower, long ago, back in the wooded parts of upper New Jersey, we were all asked, in that let’s-play-baby-shower-games sort of way, to provide advice for the mother-to-be. I remember telling that MTB, who happens to be my cousin, to dress her boys in pink and her girls [...]

Carpe Dickum

8 Jun

Seize the penis. Is it better to have screwed and lost then never to have screwed at all? Yesterday I was podcasting (the next Hot Sox podcast will be up on Friday) with the always vivacious Barbie Davenporte of LA Weekly fame. While we discussed a lot on air; penis size, facials (as in ejaculation), [...]

In lieu of sex advice Thursday, here’s a host of photos that can provide sex advice, or information. The photos are from Sexy Tales, the erotic and intimate reading and performance series I host every month (last Tuesday every month, Bronson Bar, 8PM). Thanks B.YZ!

Sex Toy: Simply Blown Glass Dildo

25 May

It had been years before I realized I had left my specially picked (not the one above) Simply Blown green glass dildo behind. Back in the day, before Simply Blown had as many styles and colors to choose from, I was offered my very own glass didlo. I had never owned my own molten crystal glass [...]

Hot Sex: How to Get Tested Like A Porn Star

24 May

From the book Hot Sex: Over 200 Things You Can Try Tonight! I’m having a realization these days about what I think about mainstream porn. It’s not that I don’t get why people enjoy mainstream erotica, or that I don’t approve of people making it, or watching it. I do get it and I approve of [...]

Hot Sox: The Love Sex Connection

The lowdown on today’s Hot Sox Podcast: Fifi’s arsenal of sex toys The box above belongs to Hot Sox regular, Fifi Jingles. Fifi, a former sex industry PR person turned yoga instructor, uses some of these toys more often than others. Her favorite dildo is by Tantus, a silicone dildo and butt plug company specializing in [...]

Sex Advice: Kitchen Aids

19 May

Question: I would love to explore my kinky side, but can’t fork out lots of money for rope and paddles. Any ideas of what I can use around the house instead?

Answer: Thanks to my friend Jaeleen over at Bondassage, I’ve started to think of the whole house as a one-stop shop loaded with erotic accessories.
The [...]

Yay Stripping

17 May

I am not a professionally performing seductress, the kind who moves slowly around a pole, sliding, twisting and turning in a slew of mind-bending formations. I’m not the girl who gets on a lap and works it like she’s churning butter. I get in my head, and out of my body, as [...]

As I walked through the valley of the shadow of Los Angeles, flip camera in hand, I decided to think my thoughts out loud and record them as this week’s sex review. While being single isn’t a product, there are a lot of services out there to help people not be single [...]
