The heat is turning up, not just outside but also in our love lives. Between beach vacations, rooftop parties, and simply wearing a lot less clothing, the season is practically begging for a little extra intimacy. Whether you’re with a long-term sweetie, or out mingling and a bit more… it’s a good idea to think about how summer conditions might change the way you have sex…

Melanie, CEO and Founder of Loral’s joined us to give us an insider look at the safer sex products that are revolutionizing the industry. We talk about cunnilingus, STIs, and the need for usable products for every body.

Anal play can add variety to your sexual repertoire, not to mention awesome pleasure and enhanced orgasms. Do you know what especially rocks about anal play? Anyone can enjoy it! The anal opening is full of sensitive nerve endings that just love to be stimulated. Inside the butt, there is even more fun to be had. Many folks with vaginas experience anal pleasure because the clitoral legs extend to the anus. Most folks with penises are blessed with a prostate gland, which can facilitate intense orgasms when stimulated.

If you don’t own a harness, it’s a great thing to add to your sexual arsenal. People of all genders and orientations can wear them, and people of all genders and orientations can enjoy the pleasures of being penetrated by a partner wearing one. Harnesses open up a whole world of possibilities, too, giving you the tools to explore activities like pegging, double penetration, penetration independent of an erection, safer sex, and experimentation with different sizes, shapes, and textures of dildo.
