Intimacy & Relationships

A recent psychological study quoted in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology (and at Salon.com) suggested that when it comes to casual sex, women are just as likely to sleep with men as men are to sleep with women…assuming of course, that their proposition partner looks like Johnny Depp or Angelina Jolie.  It does make you wonder, in a post-feminist society where women no longer have to look for “providers” or suppress their sexuality, do they still go for looks?

Foreplay, or lack of foreplay, is usually an issue that concerns men and the women they fail to please.  However, either gender may have problems extending foreplay and prolonging the sexual experience.  It’s easy to understand why there is a problem here.  Much of what we learn about sex, from TV and movies, from pornography, from class room talk or dirty jokes, is a warped view of what sex is supposed to be.

The “first date” can be an intimidating experience for both men and women.  It’s a relatively simple situation that is somehow complicated by the genetic and social differences of men and women, who are suddenly and desperately struggling to relate to each other!  One wrong move and everything explodes.  Both prospective partners start to distrust each other and the romantic date dissolves into an uncomfortable farce of human errors. Hopefully some of these tips will help everyone out there to prevent that from happening! Continue Reading

First and foremost, it is important to do away with the myth that suggests masturbation is unhealthy.  The truth of the matter is that it’s not unhealthy, it’s not a sin against God, and it’s not a form of cheating.  After all, how would that work?  You’re cheating on your partner with yourself?! Now that’s not to say that masturbation is completely harmless in a relationship—it just depends on you and your partner’s living situation. Continue Reading

Can you survive a bad sex partner?  Can a relationship last if the sex is really that bad?  You might think such questions are life-defining moments that force you to choose between your head and your heart, or between a life of passion and a life of responsibility. Continue Reading

Hey guys, in this week’s article, we were lucky enough to get a guest writer: Danielle Barkes, a biological scientist who specialises in science and relationships. A fan of what we do here at KinkyMinx, she was nice enough to give us some words on Monogamy and science!

Monogamy—Nature’s Will or Man's Desire?

No one can deny that attitudes of monogamy today exist partly because of Puritan teachings, as well as scriptural doctrine.  Though many people may not subscribe to Christian thinking, they still subconsciously wrestle with religious dogma that has been passed from generation to generation.  These teachings still continue to influence court systems, media perceptions and local community standards.  We don’t know exactly where “good and evil” come from, but we know what is good and what is bad—because society always tells us so.

This is the ultimate question, the answer to which all men aspire to learn. It is the cause of much confusion and frustration, and more than a few misunderstandings. Do women like sex? Sure, they do. They just tend to approach it differently. Do women like it as much and as often as men? Well, not always, and unfortunately for the guys, studies have shown that the male sex drive is indeed stronger than that of women.
