Word of the Day: Google Girlfriend

Have you ever wanted to impress someone by showing them a photo of your (nonexistent) significant other? If you found a picture of your “partner” on Google, you had a Google girlfriend. Or boyfriend. Or friend. Google SOs are especially useful if you have no interest in a flesh-and-blood SO, but need a photo to show to your prying relatives and friends. This is a pretty benign practice that is hard to catch, unless you happen to show the “stock image” to the person’s sibling…

Word of the Day: Tocophilia

Do you fantasize about sex with a pregnant woman? Did you have the best orgasms of your life when you were pregnant? If so, you might be a tocophiliac, or someone who loves pregnancy. Some people satisfy their tocophilia by wearing fake pregnancy stomachs while having sex or simply imagining that their partner is pregnant.

Recently, there have been mini-documentaries made and articles written about orgasmic birth, or achieving orgasm(s) during birth. This phenomenon has been explained scientifically because the birth canal is being stimulated by the baby, thus provoking orgasms.

Yes! Orgasms During Birth Are Real, Study Suggests

Word of the Day: Glory hole (TW: sexualization of religious iconography)

image

If you fantasize about anonymous sex, then glory holes might be for you!

A glory hole is a hole in a bathroom wall (typically in a public restroom or an adult shop) through which penis-owners can stick their penises and have anonymous sex. A creative vulva-owner could also maneuver themselves so that they are exposed for sex (provided they are flexible enough!). Though it’s not particularly safe sex, the anonymity can be arousing. The next time you find yourself in an adult store, you might be singing glory holelujah!

Word of the Day: Electrophilia

image

Ever taken a nine volt battery and licked the top of it? If you haven’t, let me explain; when you lick the top of the battery you complete the circuit causing you to feel a slight shock. Kind of like that feeling? Perhaps you wanted to try that same sensation on someplace a bit more tender? Maybe you wanted just a little more umph than that little battery.

Sounds shocking, right? Actually, electrophilia is the sexual urge or preference to fantasies involving electricity, so add that to your list of kinks to try out. However, be careful when trying out electricity in the bedroom as it is often uncontrollable and more powerful than expected. It can be risky if one or more partners do not have any experience, so do your research! Electricity is tingly, but can also be painful, so warn your partner.

Electrophilia can also refer to positively charged ions that attract electrons to them and are therefore Lewis Acids, but there is a different word for finding chemistry nerds sexy. ;)

Word of the day: Sex alarm

image

Do you and your partner have schedules that make it hard to find time to hook up? Try using a sex alarm - an alarm set a bit earlier than you’re used to - for a morning quickie! Not only are orgasms a great way to wake up, they’ll leave you smiling at the memory for the rest of the day.

Word of the Day: Pornament

image

Do you remember when you lived with your parents and you could only hang G-rated ornaments on the Christmas tree?

Well, now that you live on your own, feel free to hang all the pornaments you want! Pornaments are exactly what they sound like— ornaments with erotic images on them. Don’t worry about finding them in stores, as they are easily handmade using plain ornaments, old Playboys (or printouts from the internet), and some Modge Podge. Happy crafting!

Word of the day: Wide Stance

image
If you’ve ever wondered about good slang for all those Republican politicians who get caught with their pants down, try the term “wide stance” on for size. A wide stance is a conservative, closeted homosexual in a position of power who does not want his homosexuality revealed. Senator Larry Craig popularized this term when he was arrested for soliciting sex in an airport bathroom. In his arrest interview, he claimed that instead of soliciting sex, he merely had a wide stance in the bathroom stall. “Wide stance,” unfortunately, can also be used in a homophobic way: “Did you see that wide stance? He almost hit on me!” Relax, bigots. No matter how wide the stance, your intolerance doesn’t get any more attractive.

Word of the day: Whiskey dick

image


Have you ever gone to a party and drank so much that you couldn’t get an erection later? When a penis-owner drinks too much at a club and then brings home a hook-up and can’t get it up, they’ve got what’s colloquially known as a whiskey dick. Overusing alcohol can have a depressant effect - making life soft for penis-owners, and possibly bringing a partner down. Variants include a beer schlong, a vodka cock, gin junk, and a port pecker.

 

Note: It is important to add, too, that besides getting you a whiskey dick, alcohol makes consent trickier (consent cannot be given if judgment is impaired), and it is advisable to stay out of any sexual activity which was not previously agreed upon verbally and explicitly.  Edit: and it is advisable to stay out of any sexual activity altogether.

Word of the Day: Perineal Raphe

image

A raphe, which comes from the Greek work for “suture,” is a conspicuous crease of prolonged biological tissue. There are several raphes throughout the human body, including the perineal raphe. In penis-owners, the perineal raphe continues from the anus to the head of the penis. This is the result of the scotum and penis fusing together during fetal progression. There perineal raphe is also present in vagina-owners between the vagina and anus.

Word of the Day: St. Fiacre


What do clowns, grave robbers, and hangovers have in common (besides being rather unpleasant, of course)? They all have patron saints! Many Christian denominations venerate patron saints as protectors over careers, hobbies, illnesses, and places, among other things. Even sexually transmitted diseases have a patron saint. St. Fiacre was born in Ireland during the seventh century, but moved to France as an adult to seek solitude. There, he built a monastery in the forest, allegedly uprooting trees just by touching his staff to the ground. When a woman accused Fiacre of witchcraft, he permanently banned all women from his monastery. This is supposedly the reason why St. Fiacre is considered the patron saint of individuals with sexually transmitted diseases!

Word of the Day: Trichophilia

image

Do you lust after a head with long, beautiful hair? How about a furry chest or untamed underarms? The fetish for hair is known as trichophilia, and it can manifest in a number of ways. Some trichophiles merely like to look at hair, while others want to touch, pull, cut, or eat it. Head hair is the most common source of excitement, but body hair and animal fur can also be arousing. Preferences for color, length, and texture vary from person to person.

Word of the Day: Wandering Womb

The earth is flat. The universe revolves around the earth. Astrology controls human events. These scientific theories have all been debunked, as has the idea of the wandering uterus. The belief that the uterus could “wander” throughout the body appears to have began in Ancient Greece and persisted in Europe for centuries. What would be so bad about a wandering womb? Well, Plato described it as “closely resembling an animal…it is altogether erratic,” and physicians blamed it for “female hysteria” well into the modern era. Fortunately, we now know the uterus is quite stationary, thank you very much. So relax, hypochondriacs! If you have a uterus, it probably isn’t going anywhere.

Word of the Day: Dacryphilia

For some people, the sight of a partner crying would make them feel awkward or sad. For others, it’s what turns them on. Dacryphilia, or dacrylagnia, is the fetish for tears. More specifically, an individual with dacryphilia experiences pleasure from causing another person to cry. In BDSM situations, a dominant might taunt a submissive to get an emotional reaction or bring them to tears through pain play.

Word of the Day: Capnolagnia

If you can look past the health risk and instead get a breeze in your bloomers when you see smoke, you might have capnolagnia, arousal from smoking. Though it’s dangerous, smoking has long been considered quite sultry and now might represent a kind of (albeit unwise) badassery. No femme fatale or bad boy would be complete without cigarette in hand, or better yet, one lipstick-stained, hanging in manicured fingers. If you’re looking for a safer option that still has most of the sexiness, take a cue from Stephen Dorff. Just please, be careful where you aim that thing.
