Hello Ladies,

I am a married guy who occasionally reads your site for some ideas to share with my wife. It seems like anal play both for him and her is a popular topic. My wife enjoys some occasional backside attention, and I've been trying to get her to give me some too. One time she used a butt plug on me while giving me a ----- . This resulted in the most intense orgasm I had ever experienced! After that, I secretly used her dildo on myself just to see if it would fit, and it did. Now, I've asked her to use it on me, but she's afraid of hurting me. I don't want her freak out knowing I've already done it. Do you have any advice as to how to get her to play along?

Thanks!
Swimdad

Dear Dad (no wait, that's all wrong...),

Have you heard of those urban legends of people getting their vacation camera film developed only to find pictures of their toothbrushes stuck up strangers butts? Well, this is practically the same thing...

You should be ashamed of yourself for secretly

Sophisticated Swedish "sex life accessory label" Lelo has been on a roll this year: first there was the Nea Black Pearl Valentine, then the flushed deep rose Iris for Spring, followed by the lipstick look-alike Mia vibe. But considering the high-end, luxury vibe they're going for, Lelo's made some pretty wacky decisions in the naming of their most recent toys. A month or so back, there was the BO love ring, which unfortunately called to mind stinky post-gym sweat. Now, there's the new BOB, reminding us of that classic episode of The Newlyweds:

Question: "Where's the craziest place you've ever had sex."
Answer: "Um, in the butt, Bob."

Yes, BOB is a "gentleman's plug," the second in their toys-for-boys department (called their ("Homme line"). Not sure who wants to stick something named Bob up their butt, but, hey, if calling yourself a gentleman makes you feel better about exploring anal pleasure, go for it! If you can get past the name, it's got a lot of things going for it:

Some call it a Johnson, while others prefer "the snake." Which penis terms are your favorite and least favorite?

This week, our intern Maddie Phillips, a senior at SUNY Oswego, discovers another unusual male phenomenon:

Until recently, I thought straight-male bonding in college consisted of video games, flag football behind Lee Hall, heated debates about who drank more over the weekend, and flatulence competitions. However, there's a new -- or rather, new-to-me -- brand of male bonding out there: guys watching porn together. Let me rephrase that: GUYS WATCHING PORN TOGETHER?!? (Video: Do you watch porn?)

That's what a dear fraternity friend casually disclosed to me a few weeks ago. My jaw dropped in confusion and curiosity. So, what's a naturally inquisitive young lady supposed to do with a lead like this? Well, I set off to do a bit of very unscientific research on the topic. Being an over-achiever who's involved almost to the point of nervous breakdown gives me an eclectic group of guy friends -- geeks, jocks, artsy-fartsy types, would-be politicians, fellow keg standers -- whom I can grill on

We haven't seen author and filmmaker Ian Halperin's newest documentary, His Highness Hollywood, in which he "infiltrates L.A. casting rooms and befriends several A-list actors and industry people by posing as a gay actor who's a member of the so-called 'Israeli Royal Family.'" Sounds juicy, no? But honestly that's not what piqued our interest about the film (despite Em's shameless addiction to her US Weekly subscription). No, it was these few lines in the press release:

"He then ends up in a top Hollywood acting school, gets put into shape by Usher's personal trainer and is cast for several major film roles, all while infiltrating The Church of Scientology. Then the Church of Scientology offers him a "cure" for his homosexuality. Inside the Church, Halperin meets several celebrities who joined Scientology who give him the scoop on the gay rumors surrounding several of the Church's high profile members, including John Travolta and Tom Cruise. One longtime Scientologist tells

Very rarely are other people's dreams interesting...except when they're about sex. This week dream analyst Lauri Loewenberg addresses accidental nocturnal infidelity:

Maybe you guys can help me figure out this weird dream that I've had several times. First, a little background: I am 26, I live in Rhode Island, I've been with my wonderful boyfriend for a year, and we have great sex. Really great, actually. Anyway, the dream is pretty simple -- I have sex with someone (not my boyfriend) without realizing it, and by the time I come to my senses, it's too late and I've cheated. The guy I sleep with in the dream varies: once it was my boss, who is about 20 years older than me and not attractive, and another time it was an ex boyfriend. It's always the same thing, though. I sort of hazily, dreamily hook up with the Other Man, and then, once the deed is done, snap to my senses and realize with horror that I've just committed an awful infidelity. I always wake up feeling shaken and creeped

Advice from our guy friends. This week they answer the question, Why do guys shave their balls?

Straight Married Guy (Fred): I have no f*cking idea! Why would you do that? First of all, how is it even done? I'm guessing you have to pull the skin and stretch it out to get a razor to go over it. Jeez. Ok, then you've got to avoid nicks. Yikes! Then it starts to grow back. Yeah, that's where I want stubble, ON MY BALLS! Ladies, imagine having stubble under your breasts. Scratchy, itchy tits. No thank you. Enough with the war on hair. Stop the madness! (Do you know the pube dos and don'ts?)

Gay Married Guy (Jon Ross): As Dr. Evil famously said, "There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum, it's breathtaking. I suggest you try it." Just be careful: shaving your balls is a very sensitive topic (literally) and ultimately, in my opinion, an activity that is not usually worth the effort. It's true a smooth, bald sac is pleasing to the touch and something of a novelty, but to me it's not
