7 Reasons You Should Be Jealous Of Married Sex
Recently, I was driving down a crowded New York City street near a large college campus. It was late, and I was in a mad dash to get home because I’m old now and I had kids to get on the bus in the wee hours of the next morning. As I inched down the street, my eyes fell upon young college kids crowding the cafes and bars. I noticed the lithe frames of the girls in tiny tank tops and perfectly straightened hair, and I observed as guys with starched shirts and ironic shorts stood around sipping craft beers. Sitting at a stoplight, I watched as the girls flipped…

6 Easy Ways to Spice Up Your (Married) Sex Life
If you’ve been married for more than a few years, chances are you and your mate have fallen into a routine – from who takes out the trash to who picks up the kids from school.

Is sex necessary for a happy marriage?
As a marriage counselor, I see a lot of couples who come to me with sexual problems in their relationship. The stories that couples tell me about their sexual difficulties vary, but most of them go something like this: He wants more sex and she doesn’t. He says he needs sex to feel close and she doesn’t see why her snuggling, cuddling and stuff she does around the house doesn’t do it for him. She says she needs to feel close first to have sex and he doesn’t see why sex doesn’t help her to feel close. At the end of the day, she doesn’t see why sex is so…

Study Shows Better Communication Results In Better Sex!
Men report better sex lives when they communicate with their partners about intercourse, according to a new study. Researchers asked couples to keep sexual activity records and complete partner performance surveys after sex, and found that men in particular reported significant improvement in their partners’ sexual performances. “The mere fact that the couple discussed sexuality more in their relationship and that they had to keep a joint diary helped to enhance their sexual response,” said Michaela Bayerle-Edershe of the Medical University of Vienna, in a press release. The finding was essentially an accidental outcome. Bayerle-Edershe and colleagues set out to measure the effects of treating women who reported chronic lack of sexual desire with the…

7 Tips For Keeping Married Sex Awesome
Have you ever heard the “Bean Jar” theory of married sex? Before you get married, go out and buy a big glass jar and a big bag of beans. On your wedding night, during your honeymoon, and every time you have sex thereafter, put one of the beans in the jar. Keep doing this until you’ve been married for one year. Now, in your second year of marriage and in every subsequent year: each time that you and your spouse have sex, you are to remove one bean from the jar. The jar will never be empty in your lifetime. Aside from the dubious mathematics and outdated exclusion of sex-out-of-wedlock,…

5 Reasons You Should Have Sex With Your Husband Every Night
I was getting a manicure the first time I learned that not all wives want to, ahem, go for a roll in the hay with their husbands. I was 16 and had picked out orange nail polish (oh, sixteen). I had a book with me but it wasn’t long before I found another source of entertainment. In-between buffings and polishings, the two women next to me talked about how much their husbands wanted IT and how little they wanted to give IT. For a girl that had not even been asked out on a date this was a whole new world. I had a suspicion that their experience was more…

Half Of This Country’s Married Couples Aren’t Having Sex
Valentine’s Day for a staggering number of couples in Japan will be even less steamy than a dry-air sauna. Per a new survey by the Japan Family Planning Association, nearly half of all married couples here haven’t had sex for over a month (and didn’t expect to be having any anytime soon), which is the group’s textbook definition of a “sexless marriage,” the Guardian reports. The survey, which was part of a broader questionnaire for 3,000 people ages 16 to 49, received responses back from 655 married subjects, whose answers indicated that 47.2% of them were in a marriage sans sex—a substantial difference from 31.9% in 2004, and a record number. How…

10 Sexy Movies To Help Spice Up Date Night
I still can’t bring myself to watch “Fifty Shades of Grey.” It’s not the kinky sex that bothers me, but the fact that we’re supposed to watch it for the kinky sex. That’s too much pressure for two tired parents on a date night in the family room. So, home with my husband and our Netflix account last week, we passed on Christian Grey and his mistress and searched instead for a movie that would stimulate the mind as well as the senses. 1.We ended up watching “Body Heat,” a summer steamer in which, at one point, William Hurt has to smash a glass door to get to a smoldering…
