Spontaneous Sex Isn’t The Hottest Sex, Study Says

Good things come to those who wait, according to a new study. New research from York University published in the Journal of Sex Research found that planning ahead can be just as sexy and satisfying as spontaneous sex—despite popular beliefs otherwise. “But, despite these beliefs, across our two studies, we did not find strong support that people actually experience spontaneous sex as more satisfying than planned sex,” the study’s authors said.

“When we suggest that couples or other romantic configurations carve out that time, we’re not necessarily saying you put it into a calendar—like 7 p.m. on a Tuesday, after putting dinner in the oven and before folding the socks,” explained a registered psychotherapist specializing in romantic relationships. The study’s authors concluded that the key to planning sex ahead of time is “intention, versus expectation” and to plan to regularly spend quality time together with no distractions to keep hold of the spark and alleviate any pressure. “But the intentionality behind it can be transformative in the sense that we don’t wait around for the right moment, because sometimes the mood just never strikes, really, for some people, and that might deter them.”

Cara Delevingne ‘Donated’ Orgasm To Science

Viewers were left speechless by the climax of Cara Delevingne’s new show “Planet Sex With Cara Delevingne.” The Supermodel and actress donated an orgasm to science on the six-part BBC docuseries—and viewers will be able to watch the results. Delevingne “gave the orgasm” while at a hospital in Germany.

Her donation went to researchers who wanted to test the blood of someone before and after orgasm in an effort to understand the body’s chemistry. The orgasmic episode is dedicated to investigating the “gender climax gap,” which shows that it is easier for men to climax while it is harder for women to do so. “I’m here to have an orgasm and donate it to science. I think female sexual desire has definitely been repressed,” Delevingne said. “I know from my own love life just how sexual women can be, so you’d think in the 21st century men and women should be having equally satisfying sex lives, right?”

Sex Can Trigger Asthma Attacks, Doctors Find

Sex can trigger asthma attacks and flare-ups in the same way as intense exercise, a study has found. The researchers say raising awareness about the link between sex and asthma will “improve patient’s lives, including their marriages.” Between 40 and 90 percent of asthma patients have symptoms that can be brought on by exercise—but sufferers are unlikely to think of sex as exercise.

The lead author of the study and chief internal medicine resident at Saint Agnes Medical Center in California, said: “Many people don’t realize that the energy expenditure of sexual activity is about equivalent to walking up two flights of stairs.” She said that reported cases of sex-induced asthma are rare, possibly because those suffering a flare-up will not make the connection. She recommended “patients take their short-acting beta agonist inhaler 30 minutes prior to sexual intercourse to prevent an asthma attack.”

Evening Primrose Oil Could Boost Female Orgasms, Study Finds

Experts found a huge benefit to taking evening primrose oil: improved orgasms. A study of 60 women asked how enjoyable sex was for those taking oil pills compared to those who had a placebo. Women who took them each night rated their sex as being better after eight weeks, saying they had more orgasms and enjoyed sex more than participants not taking it.

Questions assessed their levels of desire, arousal, lubrication, orgasm, and overall satisfaction, finding that the women who took the pills for just 4 weeks saw their sex improve significantly on all measures. Researchers believe prostaglandin—a type of fat that has hormone-like effects—in primrose oil may improve orgasms by helping contract the smooth muscles in the reproductive system. The reproductive smooth muscles contract during orgasm in both men and women.

Lots Of Sex Makes Passing Kidney Stones ‘Pleasurable,’ Faster

Sex: it’s doctors’ orders! Other than drinking water and waiting, researchers have revealed a much more pleasurable way to rid yourself of kidney stones: by having sex or masturbating three to four times per week. Typically, those with small kidney stones are told to drink lots of fluids and take medications that relax muscles in the urinary tract, such as Flomax, to speed up the passing process.

Now, doctors in Indonesia have found that orgasms and ejaculation lead to bladder neck contraction and relaxation, which could also help pass kidney stones. In another study, results showed that the rate of kidneys passing stones was 5.7 higher and expelled faster in the group that was sexually active. Sex also helped mitigate the discomfort caused by kidney stones, with 62% fewer participants in that group requiring pain relief.

Shocking Amount Of People Watch Porn At Work, Study Finds

It seems a lot of workers are brazenly watching porn in their cubicles. A shocking number of people have admitted to consuming porn in the office—60% according to a recent survey. But researchers say it’s not because workers want to masturbate; mainly, they just want “a distraction.”

Researchers noted that watching porn could be “stress relief or a coping mechanism” while working: “[Porn] becomes a way of coping with how mundane and unpleasant the reality of their work is,” one researcher said. Others might watch porn as a way to “reward” their hard work: “They’ve just got a sale, had a win, they’ve just finished a piece of work online and it’s a treat,” the researcher told BBC. “We might have a cup of coffee and a cake . . . somebody else might watch pornography.”

Narcissistic Men Are More Prone To Premature Ejaculation, Study Finds

Narcissistic men are more prone to premature ejaculation and trouble orgasming, a new study found. The study found that “narcissistic men are strongly self-pleasure driven, deriving sexual satisfaction more from orgasm than relational interactions.” These men have a higher sexualization overall but are also more prone to rapid ejaculation and difficulty reaching ejaculation, according to the findings.

Narcissistic men are also more likely to have a sexual partner, have sex and masturbate, a greater interest in sex, lower sexual satisfaction and lower overall relationship satisfaction. Being very into themselves, they are also more likely to prefer masturbation over partnered sex. “Our research reiterates the negative impact that narcissism has on relationship satisfaction, but adds new perspective on how this personality characteristic may also affect a man’s sexual response during partnered sex,” the study says.

Study Reveals Women’s Sexual Desire Increases For Some Of Pregnancy

The second trimester of pregnancy is often referred to the “honeymoon period” because symptoms start to fade and the desire to have sex returns. But a new study suggests that the window of opportunity for sex during this trimester is shorter than previously thought. Researchers surveyed more than 200 US women about how often they had sex during each week of their pregnancy. 

Overall, the probability of getting it on increased only around 60 percent of the second trimester, which is something of a surprise because the whole of the second trimester has commonly been considered prime time for sex. “We hope the results will help clinicians provide beneficial information about the fluctuations of sexual behaviour during pregnancy, and spread awareness around potential sudden declines in sexual frequency, which can in turn prepare or reassure women and partners alike.” The NHS adds it’s “perfectly safe” for women to have sex during their pregnancy unless a doctor or midwife has told them not to.

Anal Sex Taboos Put Generation Of Women At Risk, Doctors Say

Straight women are leaning in to anal sex–or should we say bending over? The most recent statistics provided by the Centers for Disease Control and the National Center for Health Statistics showed that more than a third—35%—of women aged 15 to 49 have tried anal sex with a male partner. A similar survey of 880 “sexually active adults” showed that 70% of women have tried anal sex at least once.

In the spirit of a new age of sexual exploration and health awareness, doctors published an editorial urging more clinicians to talk to women about engaging in anal sex. “Clinicians may shy away from these discussions, influenced by society’s taboos,” wrote the doctors with the UK’s National Health System, adding “By avoiding these discussions, we may be failing a generation of young women, who are unaware of the risks.” Physicians and healthcare workers, especially those in primary care and family medicine, “have a duty to acknowledge changes in society around anal sex in young women, and to meet these changes with open neutral and non-judgemental conversations to ensure that all women have the information they need to make informed choices about sex,” they wrote.

Cyclists Are More Prone To Erectile Dysfunction, Study Finds

Researchers from the New England Research Institutes found that male cyclists are at risk of erectile problems and possibly infertility. The problem is that riding a bike can put pressure on the Alcock canal (no pun intended?), a part of the male anatomy that contains nerves and arteries that feed the genital area, causing loss of sensation and other problems. The good news is the risks are only for cyclists who ride a lot, who are 70 percent more likely than non-cyclists to have moderate or severe erectile dysfunction.

Researchers also found that men who cycled for less than three hours a week not only didn’t have a problem, but that modest levels of cycling seemed to be positively good for their sex lives, with 40 percent less chance of suffering from erectile dysfunction than those who never cycle. Although erectile dysfunction is a common and distressing condition for men, cycling is not up there as a leading cause. Most cases of erectile dysfunction are actually caused by smoking (which doubles your risk), high blood pressure (which also doubles your risk), excessive drinking, being overweight and stress— all in some way affecting blood flow, nerve sensitivity and or hormones such as testosterone.
