Is your penis too big for her mouth?

2012-05-20T08:02:00.002-07:00

Advice for women who find the penis a mouthful to swallow

Next time you want to pleasure your man orally, start by swirling your tongue around his nerve-packed corona (the ridge where the head meets the shaft) and gently sucking the tip of his shaft. As his arousal grows, lick the length of his penis, alternating between sweeping up-and-down strokes and circular motions. You'll really make his toes curl if you caress his balls as you tantalize his manhood with your tongue. Or, lick his testicles as you manually massage his shaft.

When you're ready to take more of him into your mouth, try this titillating gag-proof technique: Form a tube with one hand and put it against your lips. Then, wrap your mouth around his shaft and slide your mouth and hand up and down in unison (make sure he's well-lubed with saliva or water-based lubrication). You'll send him into an orgasmic tailspin if you use your free hand to rub his frenulum (the thin ridge that runs the length of the underside of his penis) or supersensitive perineum (the area between his balls and anus) at the same time.

The more he ejaculates the better he feels

It is known that the intensity of the male orgasm is directly related to how much fluid he ejaculates; the more he ejaculates, the better it feels. Two things which increase the quantity of ejaculation are prolonged abstinence and prolonged stimulation prior to climax. The intensity of an orgasm is also affected by the strength of the contractions, and this is in part a function of how strong the PC muscles are.

It's also necessary to understand that ejaculation starts shortly before semen is squirted from the body. Once the various internal organs begin to empty their fluids into the urethra, the ejaculation process has started, and nothing will stop it; even if stimulation ends, semen will be ejaculated a second or two later. This is referred to as "ejaculatory inevitability," or "the point of no return."

Because more semen ejaculated means a better orgasm, going a week without sex will result in a powerful ejaculation accompanied by a very pleasurable orgasm. Few men see this quality for quantity trade off as a good deal, but there is another way of increasing the quantity of semen ejaculated. The seminal vesicles and prostate produce fluid all the time, but during times of strong arousal they kick into over drive. This means that prolonged high-level arousal before climax will result in a much more pleasurable orgasm. Stimulation of the penis during foreplay will have the desired effect, although he may need a bit of practice to learn how to control that arousal once intercourse starts. Another way to increase his ejaculation is to tease him during the day, getting him aroused by what you say or show, or how you touch him. Each time you do this, you will cause his body to produce extra fluid for his next ejaculation.

Men's best toy gets an upgrade

2012-04-23T02:09:00.004-07:00

Still using your hands to jack-off?

Apparently, using your hands to jack off is not cool anymore. Not when there are a dozen or more devices out there that are being championed as the best and most pleasurable way to beat your meat.

Top of the line is from Fun Factory called the Cobra Libre.

This masturbator isn’t a sleeve, and it isn’t meant for stroking or thrusting, it’s basically a vibrator for the glans of your penis head. You fit your cock head inside the "cockpit" of that TRON car looking device and let it rumble and stimulate your exposed glans. According to reviews it can make you cum even without you getting hard - it's that good! You can also use it to stimulate yourself while your partner works on the other parts of your package.

Next on the shelf is a penis masturbator disguised as a deodorant. Give some credit to the Japanese who designed a masturbator you can bring through airport scanners without the alarm going off.

Tenga masturbators are designed to look just like one of your shaving or bath lotion bottle you carry inside your luggage. They are very discreet you can even keep them where you keep your shower gel.

To use it just lift off the lid and insert your erect member inside its specially textured and lubricated material which is said to provide you the same sensation as when you insert it in a vagina, an anus, mouth, etc. (you get the picture) depending on the model. Of course you still have to work it up and down your stiff member using your hands.

The Tenga "onacup" is supposed to be a "one-use" and diposable product but reviewers say you can use it for a couple of times, provided you don't shoot your seed inside and thus messing up its internals which is actually washable too (although this is not recommended).

How big are Asian men?

Top Japanese sex toy manufacturer releases data on penis size

Do Asian men have the smallest dicks? Tenga, Japan's most famous manufacturer of male masturbation products has released the data on their penis size survey.

According to Tenga, which is a sponsor of The Tokyo Reporter this month, the average length of a Japanese male’s erection is 13.56 centimeters, with a diameter of 3.53cm at the head and 3.19cm at the shaft.

Since Tenga launched its first models in Japan on July 7, 2005, its products have gone on sale in over 40 nations, with more than 20 million units shipped. A variety of reputable gentlemen, such as film director “Beat” Takeshi Kitano, have become passionate patrons of Tenga products and praised them in public.

Tenga’s findings closely approximate those of Andro Medical of Madrid, Spain, a producer of various patented devices for penis enlargement. According to the company, the 13cm penis length ranks Japanese males 10th worldwide, putting Japan behind France, Australia and Italy, but, rather amazingly, ahead of the United States, in 11th place with an average of 12.9cm.

While Thailand was rated tops in Asia with an average length of 13.5cm, no doubt Shukan Post’s readers enjoyed a smirk at the expense of South Koreans, whose average of 9.6cm made them the shortest among males in 17 Asian countries.

Herbs for erectile dysfunction

2012-03-20T18:17:00.001-07:00

Which herb can you use to achieve a better erection? - Mayo Clinic

Erectile dysfunction — difficulty maintaining an erection sufficient for sex — is a common problem. You've likely seen advertisements on the Internet or in magazines for erectile dysfunction herbs or supplements, and you may wonder whether they might work for you.

Erectile dysfunction herbs and other natural remedies have been used in Chinese, African and other traditional medicines for many years. But finding out whether erectile dysfunction herbs or supplements work, and if they're safe, can be tricky. Unlike prescription medications for erectile dysfunction such as sildenafil (Viagra), vardenafil (Levitra) and tadalafil (Cialis), most erectile dysfunction herbs and supplements haven't been well studied or tested. Some can cause side effects or interact with other medications.

DHEA	Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a building block for sex hormones. It may help some men if they have low testosterone (hypogonadism).	DHEA can interfere with your natural balance of sex hormones. It can cause acne and may lower "good" high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol.
Epimedium (horny goat weed)	This traditional Chinese medicine may help erectile dysfunction.	There's little evidence about the safety or side effects of epimedium. It may cause blood thinning and lower blood pressure.
Folic acid and vitamin E	In some men taking sildenafil (Viagra), these vitamins seemed to help with erectile dysfunction. But more studies are needed to determine whether there's a clear benefit.	Except in high doses, there's little risk of side effects from these vitamins.
Ginkgo	Ginkgo may help erectile dysfunction by increasing blood flow to the penis. It may also help ease sexual side effects caused by antidepressants.	Ginkgo may increase your risk of bleeding. This could be dangerous if you're going to have surgery or you take a blood-thinning medication.
Ginseng	Asian (Panax) ginseng has been used for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine for a number of conditions. A few studies show that ginseng may help with erectile dysfunction.	This herb is generally considered safe. However, it may lower blood sugar levels, so use caution when taking ginseng if you have diabetes. In rare cases, ginseng has been linked to mania when taken with certain antidepressants.
Yohimbe	Yohimbe is derived from the bark of the African yohimbe tree. A prescription form (yohimbine) may help with erectile dysfunction — especially if it's due to psychological causes.	The prescription form of this herb has been linked to a number of side effects, including increased blood pressure, fast or irregular heartbeat and anxiety.
Zinc	Zinc may improve erectile function in men who have a zinc deficiency.	Don't take zinc in high doses. Too much zinc can harm your immune system and cause other health problems.

Actor's penis may cost him an award

2012-02-05T19:21:00.000-08:00

Michael Fassbender's penis is the latest movie sensation

With a Golden Globe nomination, a flurry of press coverage and even a mention from George Clooney during his Globe acceptance speech, it's clear: Michael Fassbender's penis is the new toast of Hollywood.
Fassbender played an emotionally distant sex addict and went full frontal nude for Steve McQueen's drama "Shame," which earned the film an NC-17 rating and, ironically, far more press than it would have gotten otherwise.

The German-Irish star's performance earned him a Best Actor nod at the Golden Globes, and should also scoop him up an Oscar nomination, but his immense talent has almost been overshadowed by incessant talk about his member.

Clooney thanked him for "taking over the frontal nude responsibly that I had," during his Globes acceptance speech, adding, "Really Michael, honestly, you can play golf like this with your hands behind your back."

Clooney again made mention of his anatomical club during an actors roundtable hosted by Newsweek, calling him the "expert" in issues of on-screen erection and drawing Fassbender into talking about a difficult urination scene in "Shame."

Does your penis shrink after sports?

Help for men with penis shrinking problems

Many people have asked this question. Many men get really upset when they've been working out just before a date and notice that their penis has shrunk to its minimum flaccid size. This is a condition we call "Sport Shrinkage". During an exercise, blood is needed for other parts of the body and therefore the blood from the penis is "drained" for use elsewhere in our bodies. This leaves you with a tiny penis for sometimes up to 18 hours after an intensive workout.

"I've recently taken up running,i'm 42. When i return from my run my penis has shrunk to almost child size! My testicles also disappear. This is utterly the most embarassing thing ever. At the weekend i was in a long run, after, i had to get changed, i looked at all the other men who were naked and having showers, they all looked huge in comparison to me. What can i do about this problem? It's making me depressed."

Think of how embarrassing it is going on a date and then having your partner see your penis in its smallest flaccid state. But as with everything, now there is a solution with a product called Bath-mate. The bath-mate is just as easy to use at home in the shower as it is in the bath, allowing you to aid your penis to enlarge when it is most convenient to do so.

Bathmate is the only product in the world using patented hydraulic technology and is effective, comfortable, cost effective and a fast way to get penis growth on the market without expensive overnight surgery. It also can draw freshly oxygenated blood directly into the corpora cavernosa which maximizes penile fitness. So you can get the best of both worlds with the Bathmate.

Order Bathmate

Bathmate is also very discreet and beautifully designed to look like part of your toiletries. So you can safely pack it in your luggage or your toiletry bag and never having to worry about it showing up in x-ray scanners!

5 things you never knew about your penis

Condom that protects and enlarges your penis

2011-12-17T03:36:00.000-08:00

New condom promises a bigger experience

Condoms have long allowed couples to enjoy sex with few worries about pregnancy or disease. In recent years, erectile dysfunction drugs such as Viagra and Cialis have helped men improve their sexual performance. Now Britain’s Reckitt Benckiser (RBGPY) and its partner Futura Medical (FAMDF) think there could be big demand for a product that does both.
A condom under development by Reckitt Benckiser, the maker of Durex brand prophylactics, contains a dose of a Futura-produced gel called Zanifil inside the tip to stimulate blood flow within the penis. The two companies say their product helps men achieve firmer, larger erections and longer-lasting lovemaking. And unlike Pfizer’s (PFE) Viagra impotence pill, which requires a prescription, the soon-to-be-named Zanifil-enhanced condom will be sold over the counter at stores in Europe next year. “It’s essentially Viagra in a condom,” says Polar Capital Holdings’ Daniel Mahony, who owns shares of Futura Medical.

Futura aims to widen the condom market by winning over men who normally avoid them because of decreased sensitivity or partial loss of erection, says Chief Executive Officer James Barder. (Futura-funded research by Acupoll found that up to 22 percent of healthy men sometimes suffer a partial loss of erection during intercourse while wearing a condom.) Almost half of people who don’t use condoms would be interested in buying the product, Futura says.

Zanifil, like Futura’s other experimental drugs, relies on a patented delivery system known as DermaSys that allows medicine to permeate the skin rapidly. The drug, based on chest pain treatment nitroglycerin, widens the blood vessels by relaxing the muscles in the vessel walls, increasing blood flow. A company study found a significant portion of men and women reported firmer erections with a Zanifil condom, as well as larger penis size and longer-lasting sex.

Is your penis hard enough?

2011-09-28T18:46:00.000-07:00

Men's erect penis hardness is a sign of good health

In just the past decade, researchers have made the all-important link between sexual activity and good health. When a man's blood vessels are healthy and "elastic," his heart and brain are functioning well-and his erections are rock hard. When his neural connections are firing and nitric oxide is being released in great abundance throughout his body, his cognition is high-and his erections are rock hard. When testosterone levels are normal and weight is controlled, he has the ability to train most effectively-have a healthy, trim body-and his erections are rock hard. Once a man starts to connect the dots, once he fully understands that good health and a hard erection are linked, he will begin to take better care of himself.

According to a new study of 2,400 men conducted by researchers at the University of Bristol, in England, men who reported three or more orgasms per week were half as likely to have a heart attack or stroke as those who had sex less often.

On the surface, it looks as though the principal message of this study is that having sex reduces heart attack and stroke and lets you live longer. In fact, just the opposite is true: Being healthy allows you to have sex as much as you want. Having sex three times a week serves as an important marker that you are healthy and in good physical shape-you're certainly more sexually fit than a man who can't have sex three times a week. Beyond that, the strength of a man's erection-his hardness-is the true barometer of his overall health.

Is your penis too big?

2011-09-12T18:11:00.000-07:00

Men with large penises never complain, or do they?

When it comes to sex, bigger isn’t always better – but you’ll almost never hear a guy complain that his penis is too large. When it comes to having real sex in the real world, it’s better to have a real average-sized penis than a pumped-up penis!

First off, when you consider that the average vagina is only about 3 inches deep, an average sized guy will certainly be able to reach her cervix with his erection. And even when a woman is aroused, and her vagina expands another inch or so, it still isn’t as deep as the length of the average guy.

Most women would agree that girth is usually more important than length when it comes to enjoying intercourse – that’s because there’s an abundance of erectile tissue that surrounds the opening of the vagina. The average width of an erect penis is about 4 3/4 inches around, and generally it isn’t until a penis is over 6 inches in circumference that some partners will start to feel it becomes a little challenging. Having a large penis can be challenging, but there’s much you can do to make the experience more pleasurable for your partner:

Get an erection by wearing this condom

2011-06-21T18:47:00.000-07:00

New condom to boost your erection

Things are pointing up -- ahem -- for the CSD500, the so-called "Viagra condom" from British pharmaceutical company Futura Medical, and for Reckitt Benckiser PLC (the makers of Durex-branded condoms have exclusive gobal rights to bring the CSD500 to market) after the condom was recommended for Conformité Européenne (CE) mark approval today in the European Union. CE marking is a mandatory step before the condoms can be placed on the market in the 29 countries known as the European Economic Area.

Futura Medical specializes in transdermal delivery of active ingredients within the fields of sexual health and pain relief and has been working since 2008 to seek approval to bring the CSD500 to market. Because of the product's pharmaceutical properties it must be approved as a "Class III medical device with an ancillary medicinal substance."

The condom contains a medicated gel substance in its tip that has been demonstrated to dilate the arteries and increase blood flow to the penis, resulting in "the maintenance of a firmer erection in healthy men during intercourse whilst wearing a condom, increased penile size and a longer lasting sexual experience for women," according to a 2008 study.

Vitamin D boosts sperm quality

2011-05-23T21:23:00.000-07:00

Positive association between blood vitamin D levels and sperm motility

This study was carried out by researchers from The University of Copenhagen, Denmark and was funded by various research organisations, including the Danish Agency for Science, Technology and Innovation, and the Novo-Nordisk Foundation of the Novo-Nordisk pharmaceutical company. It was published in the peer-reviewed medical journal Human Reproduction.

The research shows that vitamin D can have an effect on sperm, but further work is needed to see whether the amount of vitamin D used in the experimental phase of this study reflects the range of vitamin D sperm would typically be exposed to in the human body.

The men in this study were recruited from the general population and although those with deficient vitamin D levels had less motile sperm, it is unclear whether this would be a sufficient impairment to cause problems for them to conceive with their partner.

Further research is needed to see whether vitamin D levels are associated with clinical fertility problems.

Maintain strict personal habits to keep your manhood in tip top shape - Mayo Clinic

Penis health is an important part of men's health — and it goes beyond your ability to get and keep an erection, ejaculate and reproduce. Penis problems can indicate an underlying health condition. In addition, ongoing health issues affecting your penis can impact other areas of your life, causing stress or relationship problems and harming your self-confidence. Know the signs and symptoms of penis problems and what you can do to protect your penis health.

Common penis problems affecting men (and boys):

1. Erection and ejaculation problems
2. Sexually transmitted infections
3. Problems with foreskin
4. Yeast infection
5. Peyronie's disease (bent penis)
6. Cancer

Steps to a healthier penis

* Be sexually responsible. Use a condom.
* Get vaccinated. If you're age 26 or younger, consider the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine.
* Stay physically active.
* Practice good hygiene. If you're not circumcised, regularly clean beneath your foreskin with soap and water.
* Know your medications. Discuss medication use and possible side effects with your doctor.
* Pay attention to your mental health.
* Stop smoking.
* Limit the amount of alcohol you drink and don't use drugs.
* Use it regularly! Frequent sex or sexual activity may help you maintain erectile function.

Does masturbation affect male fertility?

2011-05-16T07:59:00.000-07:00

Don't worry if you catch him masturbating - Mayo Clinic

Frequent male masturbation doesn't reduce sperm count. Male masturbation also doesn't affect your ability to achieve an erection. Actually, not having an orgasm (ejaculating) for several days or more may lower your fertility. This is because it may lower the number of sperm with normal shape (morphology) and ability to move (motility). Both normal morphology and motility affect your sperm's ability to get to and fertilize your partner's egg. Having sexual intercourse with ejaculation several times a week will maximize your chances of getting your partner pregnant, whether you masturbate or not.

Anti-baldness drug may cause impotence

2011-01-15T18:55:00.000-08:00

Prevent baldness and you may lose your virility

Men could be risking their sexual health by taking the common anti-baldness drug Propecia (finasteride). Experts say the drug can cause serious side effects and isn't adequately labeled.

Merck, the manufacturer of the drug, mentions problems on its Web site such as difficulty achieving an erection, but also says the problems will go away for men who stop taking the drug. However, many doctors say that complete impotence is not unusual even among men who have stopped taking the drug.

Propecia (finasteride) has been heavily promoted directly to American men in TV commercials and male-oriented magazines. Its promise is an alluring one: "Helping make hair loss history."

Propecia claims that nine out of 10 men with mild to moderate male pattern hair loss on the top or middle front of their head will experience visible results. The drug works by reducing DHT, the most potent male hormone that is linked to shrinking hair, by blocking the enzyme 5 alpha reductase.

But behind the images of impressive results showing men's baldness practically disappearing is a disturbing side effect that is barely talked about despite the drug's popularity: impotence.

Male fertility and virility on the wane

Male fertility is not about having a high sexual drive or physical strength. Rather men need a balanced approach to keep their reproductive health intact.

The fact that more than 15 percent couples worldwide are affected by infertility speaks volume about the worsening reproductive health globally. In India alone, the figure stands at 30 million and in half of such cases, men are responsible for the situation. Excessive alcoholism and smoking, late marriage and stress are all to be blamed. Mushrooming sperm banks and assisted reproduction centres are evident of how this is silently turning into a serious health concern.

"Male infertility is definitely on the rise," says Dr Hrishikesh Pai, vice president, Indian Society of Assisted Reproduction.

"Average sperm count has been decreasing. The World Health Organization recently revised its sperm count norm from 20 million to 15 million per mililitre," he says.

ut most men aren't aware that a high libido doesn't ensure reproductive ability. Virility is sexual desire in the mind whereas fertility is the physical ability of reproducing, which can be judged on two parameters: sperm type (sperm count and motility) and the ability to deposit the sperm into female reproductive tract during a sexual act.

Unfortunately men don't identify the problem until it's too late. Here's a checklist of things that will help you keep your reproductive health on the right track.

Eat tomato and beans
Make sure your diet includes beans, pumpkin, dairy products, poultry and oysters as these are some of the best sources of zinc - a mineral that boosts sperm production and improves consistency of semen. Eat fresh fruit and vegetables for vitamin C and E. Antioxidants, selenium and amino acids also help. Fish like salmon and tuna, which contain omega- 3 and 6 fatty acids, boost your sex drive. As semen comprises 98 percent water, drink at least eight glasses of water daily for its optimum production.

Expert says
Zinc increases sperm count by promoting its growth and maturation. Also bright red fruit like tomato, water melon and guava contain lycopene which increases sperm count and improves morphology.

Alternative cures for erectile dysfunction

2010-11-02T00:40:00.000-07:00

Several alternative treatments are used to treat erectile dysfunction, but more studies are needed to see whether they are safe or effective. Alternative treatments used for erectile dysfunction include:

* Acupuncture
* Korean red ginseng (Panax ginseng)
* Yohimbine
* DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone), a hormone that's a building block for testosterone
* Ginkgo
* L-arginine

While some of these supplements appear to be relatively safe, others are more risky and can interact with medications or cause other problems. Before using any supplement, OK it with your doctor to make sure it's safe for you — especially if you have chronic health problems.

Herbal Viagra
Some alternative products that claim to work for erectile dysfunction can be dangerous. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued warnings about several types of "herbal Viagra" because they contain potentially harmful drugs not listed on the label. Some of these drugs can interact with prescription drugs and cause dangerously low blood pressure. These products are especially dangerous for men who take nitrates.

Pomegranate juice a herbal Viagra?

2010-03-07T19:04:00.000-08:00

Take more pomegranate juice to increase your jizz

Sellers of pomegranate juice have been touting it's "wonderfulness" a bit too strongly. POM Wonderful's Web site hypes studies saying consumers who drink the juice experience more erections, lower blood pressure and cholesterol, and better chances of fighting off prostate cancer.

You may have heard of this amazing fruit which has just burst onto the internet and into the national media. Pomegranate has 70% ellagic which was recently considered by The Sun Newspaper to be 'natures natural viagra'. Its producers have even tried to market it to men looking for bigger ejaculations and harder erections.

Besides giving you a boost in bed pomegranate juice have also been known to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Adam Pritchard knows he is punching above his weight. On the supermarket shelves his Pomegreat fruit juice sits alongside products from the major players such as Del Monte. "We are doing a lot of work with a university in Glasgow. There are some significant heart health benefits but also weight benefits," says Pritchard.

For men whom are looking for a bedroom booster check out Performer5 which includes pomegranate juice and is billed as a favorite male porn-star's pick-me-up to enable them to shoot loads of jizz on screen.

Increasing your ropes during orgasm

2010-03-01T20:13:00.000-08:00

Broccoli may just be the right medicine to increase your ejaculation "ropes"

Lost that earth-shattering orgasm you had when you were younger? Too little ejaculate during orgasm to satisfy your partner? Broccoli may just be the stuff you need for more explosive orgasms!

Broccoli may indeed increase your "ropes." There's no way to tell if it would work on the general public, however, without doing a special kind of study called the "double blind, placebo controlled trial." To answer a medical question like "does broccoli increase splooge volume," you'd have to choose two groups of people who are matched in every way imaginable. You'd then give one group broccoli in capsules (so they didn't know what they were taking), and give the other group an inert substance in identical capsules.

The key to a successful study is that neither the researchers nor the patients know which one they're taking. You'd then have them masturbate into a cup and measure the volume of the ejaculate. Maybe you'd have them do it 10 times and average the volume. After all this was done, you'd "decode" the study and find out who took placebo and who took broccoli. If the broccoli group had a statistically higher amount of jizz than the placebo group, then you've gone a long way toward proving your hypothesis.

A little oral sex may go a long way

2009-10-31T19:32:00.000-07:00

Scientists observes fellatio being practised by other animals too

Oral sex is surprisingly rare in the animal kingdom. Humans do it, of course. As do bonobos, our close relatives. But now researchers have observed the practice for the first time in a non-primate. During intercourse, female short-nosed fruit bats lick the genitals of their partner, a possible ploy to increase copulation time. The discovery suggests there may be a biological advantage to fellatio.

Of the 20 observed mating bat pairs, 70% of the females performed fellatio on the males, the team reports online this week in PLoS ONE. The males never withdrew while being licked, and the authors found that the longer a female licked, the longer copulation lasted (for each second of licking, the female bats gained 6 seconds of copulation). The team speculates that licking helps maintain the male's erection, and that the saliva increases lubrication, both of which may prolong intercourse. In all, fellating females mated for an average of 4 minutes, twice as long as the other females.

What women think of foreskin

2009-10-19T09:04:00.001-07:00

Do women prefer men with uncut or cut foreskin (circumsised)?

“The first time I saw an uncircumcised penis, I was turned off by it. I was young, like 21. It didn’t look like it was clean. It’s totally different with my husband. The first guy had a lot of foreskin— even with an erection it was still hooded— whereas my husband is never hooded. The skin moves. I didn’t even know he was uncut until he told me. There are varying degrees of foreskin, I now realize.”
— 32-year-old woman, married to an uncut Englishman

“Oral sex is more interesting with uncircumcised. There’s just more there; you get to engage with it. Every other girl I’ve talked to about it said she thought uncut penises were gross, but to me it’s just a little turtleneck. What’s the big deal?”
— 28-year-old single woman

“My husband, who is circumcised, is impossible to get off. Like, impossible! The only other person I have been with wasn’t circumcised. To get him aroused, I could just take the outer casing and peel it back, and I could tell by his face that the feeling was like, holy shit, that is good. You never get that with circumcised.”

Viagra ice-cream on sale now at Selfridges

Forget oysters and Champagne: A British ice cream company thinks it has a better aphrodisiac on its hands.

The Icecreamists, a posh ice cream shop that will open this fall in London's Selfridges department store, is already touting an ice cream cocktail called The Sex Pistol, which they liken to a dose of Viagra in a frosty glass, according to The London Paper.

The chilled treat contains herbal ingredients such as ginkgo biloba, arginine and guarana, all of which are said to get the libido pumping -- but the real jolt might come from the shot of La Fee Absinthe that's also mixed in.

“This is the perfect après shopping treat," Icecreamists founder Matt O'Connor told The London Paper. "Just one Sex Pistol will leave you feeling energized and confident - but please, don’t pester the staff!”

The drink will cost about $20, and the store limits sales to one per customer.

Swine Flu is all over the media right now - and with good reason. Over the past few years, viruses are getting more resilient and harder to fight off. As the military prepares troops and supplies for an upcoming battle - you too need to prepare your body and supply it with what it needs to fight this potential pandemic.

Get Your Sleep

Sleep is the body' s biggest immunity booster. During the sleeping hours is when our body repairs and restores itself from the stresses of the day. Long known by experts, sleep is essential to good health .... and now sleep is essential to a healthy survival. Get as much sleep as you can and listen to your body. When you are tired, hit the lights and catch some zzz's. (See resources section below on ways to get better sleep).

Drink Green Tea

Known as a tea with one of the highest antioxidant levels out there, green tea is a super food for good health. With the Swine Flu looming, try and drink a cup (or more) of green tea a day and you will help ready your immune system for battle.

Take Garlic

Garlic is another ancient super food that wards off viruses. As everyone knows, too much garlic can be odor offensive. A much nicer version is to take odorless garlic pills. Take at least 3 a day (I like the brand Kwai - you can find it on any health food website) with a meal.

Don't Freak

Yes, Swine Flu is all over the news. But you don't need to follow the story every second of the day. Anxiety and stress will lower your immune system and right now you need to build it up! Limit your exposure to stress and when you begin feeling anxeity about potentially contracting this flu, do something for yourself that relaxes you...(take a walk, chat with a friend, take a long bath, etc.)

The company is calling the purchase record breaking, labeling it the most expensive male enhancement tool in history.
