Safe Sex is SEXY!


When we think about exciting sex, spontaneity comes to mind. Practicing safe sex requires some advance planning which seems to go against the possibility of an exciting rendezvous but here are some fun ideas to bring into the boudoir…that is safe and sexy!

1. Educate you and set boundaries. It is a good idea to have a basic understanding of the possible sexually transmitted diseases that can be contracted from having unsafe sex. With a good understanding of how these can be transmitted and what the risks are you will have a better ability to set your boundaries for how much you are willing to risk. Masturbation is about the only 100% safe sex you can have so unless you want to only play with yourself you need to decide what risks you are willing to take with your health and safety. Once you've set your boundaries you will know what you are comfortable with and can proceed to having fun.

2. Safe Sex Tools. It is a good idea to have a fun arsenal of safe sex supplies easily available and within reach of your play area.

-Condoms: There are plenty of choices now when it comes to condoms from size, texture and flavor as well as material. Have a variety of condoms to choose from can add to the excitement. People with latex allergies can use condoms like Avanti that are made from polyurethane. Extra thin condoms such as Kimono Microthin or Contempo Bareback are very thin providing extra sensation while maintaining strength and effectiveness. Kimono Type E and Contempo Erotica have texture such as studs and ribbing to provide more sensation for your partner during intercourse. Flavored condoms are especially popular for oral sex. There are also condoms with different shapes like Pleasure Plus and sizes like Kimono Large for even more choice.

-Dams: Dams are very effective for oral stimulation of the vagina or anus. They protect while providing a barrier between the your mouth and your lovers body while still being thin enough to feel all the wonderful sensations. Sheer Glyde Dams are available in yummy strawberry and vanilla. Dams also provide an extra sensory awareness because they do not absorb the lubricant allowing it to maintain slippery and wet. They slide and glide along the intimate body part providing a very pleasurable feeling. As well, as they can be gently snapped or nibbled on for a variety of sensations.

-Latex Gloves: Latex gloves and finger condoms can be found in most drug stores and are perfect to use when playing with your hands against intimate areas. They can be turned easily into a dam if you don't have any on hand.

3. Sex Tricks. A few fun tricks to try to make safe sex even more satisfying!

-Try putting the condom on with your mouth, it's easy - just tuck the tip behind your front teeth and hold in place with your tongue. Then roll down with your lips until it's on snug, we recommend practicing a few times on a banana or sex toy to get the hang of it.

-Use a cock ring that vibrates such as the Big O or Disposable Vibe Ring.

Vibrating cock rings will hold a condom snug in place while providing vibrations for both you and your partner.

-When using a dam try gently snapping the dam against the body, nibbling and sucking. These sensations will feel completely new and exciting through a dam and very invigorating.

-Creating a dam from latex gloves is easy! Just snip the fingers off the glove and make a vertical slip up the side for a flat dam. You can also keep the thumb part intact and make the slit up the opposite side, this gives you a pouch to add a toy or for insertion with your finger.

-Lubricant: Using a lubricant can help enhance your sex play in so many ways. The lubrication will help you slip and slide and when applied into the tip of the condom before slipping it on, you can add extra sensation and feeling for him. Adding flavored lubricants such as the Jo Flavored or O'My Flavored Lubricants help during oral stimulation especially if you do not care for the taste of latex. Tingling and warming lubricants such as the Climax Bursts Tingling or Pink Warming lubricants add wonderful new sensations and pleasure for both partners. They can be added to a condom or beneath a dam. They can also be added for manual hand stimulation. There are also cooling lubricants such as the Climax Bursts Cooling for even more variety in sensations. These lubricants can also be used on your nipples and lips for exciting kisses.

4. Toys and Safe Sex. When adding adult toys to your sex play, always cover them up with a condom. This will help to prevent transfer and also helps to make clean up easier. For toys without a motor, sterilizing your toy by boiling in water will keep them clean and fresh. Remember when switching between vaginal and anal play to either use a completely different toy for each area or change condoms between each use so that you do not get an infection.

You can be smart by practicing safe sex to prevent sexually transmitted diseases and unwanted pregnancies… but still maintain a fun and adventurous sexual lifestyle. With a little creativity and imagination safe sex practices become a whole new experience and you'll be enjoying yourself immensely while playing it safe!

Many cock rings also hold a bullet for dual stimulation. These popular toys come in a range of materials and styles and are an enjoyable way of introducing more toys into your repertoire.

Traditional Cock Rings: Cock rings can become as elaborate or simple as you choose. The traditional silicone or leather cock rings are designed to slip around the base of the penis, or around the base of the penis and testicles to help maintain a harder and longer lasting erection. The snug fit also helps to give men a stronger and more intense orgasm. Rings made of silicone or rubber such as the Mega Stretch Silicone Ring or Erection Lasso have a large amount of stretch to them allowing them to easily accommodate most sizes comfortably while still providing enough tension. Leather cock rings such as the Spank Cock Ring has less elasticity to them so you need to use the various snaps to adjust the fit and comfort of the ring. As an added tip if you put the cock ring mid-way down your shaft you can give her the added benefit of sensation during intercourse, or you could even try multiple rings for a bumpy ride.

Vibrating Cock Rings: Vibrating cock rings are a fabulous invention; it turns your penis into a real live vibrator.

The Bong “O” has an added pleasure ball which when the ring is tucked around your shaft and testicles the ball bounces against the sensitive perineum for added pleasure. And for the ultimate in duo pleasure cock ring, you can try the Tri-O, this inventive cock ring sits around the base of your penis with a bullet on top of the shaft for her and another bullet underneath the shaft for him…and with a perineum tickler too! The added bonus of the vibrating cock rings is that they provide more intense stimulation for both partners.

Remember: Safety First. Cock rings do have a time limit, we recommend removing them after 30 minutes of use to make sure you are not reducing blood flow to the penile tissue for an extended period of time. Also make sure to clean your cock rings with warm water and soap to make sure it's all clean and ready for you next go round.

Other toys such as the Betty Jo Dual Vibrator slip around the penis with an area for two bullets- one above and one below with a larger silicone cock ring to give your partner a strong clitoral stimulator. Also toys such as the Utopia Dual Action and Triple Action rings have a longer sleeve for the penis providing more girth.

How to Give a World-Class Blowjob


1. Choose your position carefully. The classic porn move that he'll be sure to love is him standing, leaning against a wall and you on your knees before him, it not only looks good but it also looks as if you are worshiping his body. Make sure you are comfortable, with pillows under your knees or if he is sitting or lying on the bed be sure you have enough support so that you are not putting all your weight on your elbows or arms. Being comfortable is important so that you can enjoy yourself without having to stop and think about any pain or discomfort.

2. Toys. Make sure to have any toys or plaything you wish to use on hand and within easy reach. The Blow Him Away Honeycomb Kit has a lot of fun items to help stimulate his sensitive spots, the finger toy can easily be slipped onto your finger or put on the popular Tongue Teaser so that you don't have to look for them later. Cock rings are also a fun addition to your play, it helps him last longer and makes the orgasm more intense, this is especially helpful if he gets a little too excited by your sexy mouth. The Spank Cock Ring and Erection Lasso are sexy options.

3. Techniques. Every guy likes to be touched differently. The best way to find out what he likes best is to ask. Or if you wish to be sneakier put your fingers in his mouth while you are playing with him, he'll most likely suck your finger the way he wants to be sucked, sneaky and you'll learn a thing or two about what he likes. Licking is often a great way to get started, using the flat side of your tongue you can go from tip to end like licking an ice cream cone. Spend some time enjoying this, pay attention to his tip as it is the most sensitive area but also to the entire length of the penis and the testicles. Make sure to be gentle when applying the teeth and watch to be sure you don't hurt him.

4. Tricks. Some interesting ways to spice things up and keep him guessing is to take a drink before hand of something slightly warm or cool, hold it in your mouth for a moment, swallow then slide your mouth over him. The coolness or added warmth to your mouth is an added bonus of sensation. Nipple Nibbler applied to your lips will have him tingling and tasting yummy. Other products designed for stimulating this erogenous area are Kama Sutra Pleasure Balm and Rocket Balm. The heating and tingling sensation will drive him wild! Also while you are using your mouth you can also involve your hands to the fun, using the finger vibes you can vibrate his perineum or anus for added pleasure, and wrapping your hand firmly around the base of the shaft and giving a hand-job while using your mouth is especially sexy.

**Make eye contact, it's sexy and will turn him on!**

5. Lubrication. Making the penis slick and slippery will also be very pleasurable. There are some fun choices available like flavored lubricants, warming lubricants, or others with a tingling or cooling sensations.

6. To swallow or not to swallow. It's your choice whether you want to swallow or not, but try to make the choice before hand so you know what you want to do as you near the end of your play. This avoids any awkwardness at the end. If you decide to swallow try to push him farther into your mouth so that you can bypass the tip of the tongue where most of the taste buds are or put him near you cheek and swallow in one gulp. Also you can hold onto his penis and rock him gently towards you to push him deeper into your mouth, sexy and effective. You can also pretend to swallow, by pushing your tongue against him while he's coming which allows you to push to the semen back out of your mouth and have it slide down his penis making him warm and slippery. This feels good for him and is a nice compromise. Or you can always allow him to ejaculate someplace else, pearl necklace perhaps?

7. Lastly; but VERY importantly, one of the key secrets to giving him a blowjob that will take his breath away and leave him your willing slave is simply enthusiasm. Honest enthusiasm to please and play with him is an aphrodisiac often ignored. Even the most skilled techniques are nothing if you are not really into what you are doing. So get ready to learn some easy ways to blow his mind and turn up the heat.
