Miniskirts, fishnet stockings, feather boas. It all sounds sexy - 'til you realize it's being sported by that every-girl-wants-one Bratz doll. If you're hoping that this sexual offense is an isolated incident, it's not. From "naughty and nice" shoe ads featuring a schoolgirl clad, lollipop licking pop star to "wink...

"The womb is a holy place. Pregnancy is no time for sexuality!" This was the reaction I got to a friend's step-mother when she learned about the "Your Orgasmic Pregnancy" teleseminar I'm hosting next month (Oct. 14th).

These old-fashioned reactions to sex during pregnancy always amuse me. First, it...

It's worse than the thought of living in a nursing home. It's trying to have sex while living in a nursing home. Seems laughable... 'til you consider that we're all sexual beings from before we're born 'til the day we die. So why aren't elder sexual rights preserved when they...

Sex educators -- and parents -- have been breathing a sigh of relief. Obama's administration has axed a hefty sum of the abstinence-only sex education funding from the 2010 budget. But if you think it's time to kick back and relax on sex ed, think again. Abstinence-only advocates have been...

When I heard that President Obama was starting to move on his comprehensive reform bill, my thoughts turned immediately to sexual and reproductive health services (SRHS). As a sexologist whose post-doctorate specialized in this area, I hope to see radical improvements to our SRHS - ones that could ultimately save...

Every few months, a college campus becomes all hot'n'bothered about some sex issue. This time it's the University of Maryland. While it managed to pull off a sell-out showing of "Deep Throat" years ago, with little complaint, a similar attempt with "Pirates II: Stagnetti's Revenge" hasn't been so lucky. Plans...

Lovers are already one step ahead of the game. According to a national Consumer Reports survey, about 50% of people with partners say they'll spend less money on Valentine's Day this year.

So how is your orgasm these days? That should've been the next question posed by a journalist covering the sexy preggie celebrity beat. Media coverage was, after all, working its way to climax, with empowered pregnancies the rage. But somewhere between Jamie Lynn Spears and Bristol Palin, headlines screaming "babes...

You might want to think twice before getting your daughter vaccinated. Sure, the government and many physicians have recommended that girls and young women receive the HPV vaccine. But it may have been plugged prematurely. With over 8,000 (and growing) reports of adverse effects, many are now wondering if the...

You can't quite put your finger on it, but your relationship feels troubled. In fact, things have become increasingly stressful and you're constantly fielding unresolved relationship problems... but you don't know why.

You are starting to feel confused and distressed.

This presidential election is supposed to be historic, right? Yet, while we've been barraged with endless political commentary regarding "the race issue" at hand, we've hardly heard a word about the "gender issue" - or women's issues for that matter. The fact that we could be months away from the...

Is making love to a robot in your future? According to David N.L. Levy, author of Sex with Robots: The Evolution of Human-Robot Relations, people will not only fulfill their every fantasy with sexbots someday, but may fall in love with their personal sex slaves, too. With computer power...

You've got to be kidding me. That was my first reaction when a producer for Fox's Happy Hour show told me that our topic of discussion was going to be young girls and pubic hair maintenance. I wasn't aghast that I was expected to speak about pubes of all things...

It was painful. Sex educators had a prime opportunity to justify why comprehensive sex education is needed in our schools... and it was missed.
