Could You Be a Sex Surrogate?
"It's an open secret," one Los Angeles psychiatrist told me more than a year ago, "but lots of us are using sex surrogates now. For some clients, we've tried everything, and this is the only thing that works. It's a very powerful therapeutic adjunct." A colleague put it in homelier terms: "After all, you don't learn how to play tennis by talking about it."

Isn’t it crazy how completely opposite men and women are when it comes to the big O? To give a woman an orgasm is to give her a gift she has always wanted yet is often hard to find. Despite vagina diagrams, verbal direction, and YouTube videos, women still have a difficult time reaching orgasm from their partner, and that’s if they do at all. It is a mission that takes skill, patience, and usually a few prayers.

There are probably more myths and misconceptions responsible for the madness surrounding the words "impotence" or "erectile dysfunction" than for any other malady affecting mankind. No doubt because it has to do with that very sensitive subject so dear to man—sex. And although experts, since the first bite of the apple, have labored mightily to lift the curtain of ignorance, man has, for the most part, ignored their efforts and continued to tremble at the mere mention of the word.

It was her first orgy. "There were six couples not counting Shawn and me. When we got there they were just getting acquainted, the same way people would at a straight party. Asking all the ordinary party questions: What do you do? How many children (or dogs) do you have? Did you see Clockwork Orange? Only they also asked: How long have you been swinging? Did you ever swing with so-and-so? I knew that in an hour or so, the men would start putting their hands on the thighs of other men's wives and soon everyone would go off and ball someone else's spouse. Maybe there would be more exotic things too—threesomes, foursomes, daisy chains. I was nervous. I just wished I knew exactly how it would start to happen, how you were supposed to behave. I was afraid I'd do something, well, embarrassing. I went over to Karin, the wife half of the couple who had invited us to the party. Karin, whispered, 'What do you do in between?"."

The notion that sex and sports don't mix is probably as old as athletic endeavor itself. No one is actually certain when and where the practice of carnal abstinence before "The Big Game" began, but reference to it is made in the Old Testament. That holy book carries passages of warriors being advised against going into battle immediately after marriage. It further suggests that neighbors of a newlywed couple should pitch in and help the groom with his chores, assuming his husbandly duties must have sapped him of his vigor. Sound advice.

Why does a rose smell like a rose? We know it looks like a rose because we can define shape, texture, and color. But to define its smell is beyond us. Smell is the sense we know the least about and, like all mysteries, it holds enormous erotic potential.

Dr. Lenore R. Zohman, a cardiologist of New York's Montefiore Hospital, reported that a majority of men who die during intercourse do so while engaging in extramarital sex.

Or perhaps the victims didn't know that adultery can be fatal if it is combined with fear, anxiety or guilt. Or with heavy drinking. As a physician, I many coronary patients who enjoy adultery and whose condition has actually improved because they engage in consensual adultery.

Perhaps the male orgasm is as mysterious as the female orgasm. Probably not. Since men seem to achieve orgasm about 110 percent of the time, we can only take a look at what can make it better, not more likely to happen. The male lasting long enough for both partners to achieve orgasm is the main goal for most couples, but that is easier said than done. Most of the men interviewed for the following study had adhered to the traditional methods of controlling orgasm—mental distractions such as thinking about a mathematical problem or conjuring up a distant scene, or physical distractions such as biting the lip or pinching the skin (the premise being that pain will override the sensation of orgasm and thus delay it). Some men found extra pleasure in being sensuously caressed and others experimented with drugs in order to achieve a more intense and powerful orgasm.

Casanova, throughout his long and active life in and out of the feather beds of Europe, was especially fond of his golden balls. No, we’re not referencing his genitals, though he did probably hold them to a golden esteem. Even so great a lover as Casanova had to contend with the mundane technicalities of contraception, and the balls he cherished were solid gold and 18 mm in diameter. Working on the theory that if the seed did not come in contact with the egg there would be nothing to regret, he gingerly positioned one of these elegant obstacles (aka diaphragms) inside his breathless lady lover. In the bizarre history of Casanova, he is known to have fathered more than a handful of golden children, and his birth control methods, often referred to as contraceptive ingenuity, would seem to have been less than reliable. But at least it was long-lasting. One golden ball was reported to have been in regular use for more than 15 years. In terms of his initial investment amortized over his sustained sexual prowess, he certainly got his money's worth.
