		<description><![CDATA[Infographics make things easy for us. That's why we love them. OkTrends, a site that gathers data from profiles on the dating site OkCupid, has created a merger of two things everyone loves  -- sex and infographics. This set of charts covers everything from how many times a week students expect to have sex based on their tuition to how often Twitter users masturbate. Oh, and some vegetarian-friendly sex slang is in there somewhere. That's something we can get down to/spend half an hour scrolling through.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=collegecandy.com&amp;blog=860993&amp;post=105848&amp;subd=collegecandy&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-large wp-image-97371" title="having sex copy" src="http://collegecandy.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/having-sex-copy.png?w=249&#038;h=250" alt="" width="249" height="250" />Infographics make things easy for us. That&#8217;s why we love them. <a href="http://blog.okcupid.com/">OkTrends</a>, a site that gathers data from profiles on the dating site OkCupid, has created a merger of two things everyone loves  &#8212; sex and infographics. This set of charts covers everything from how many times a week students expect to have sex based on their tuition to how often Twitter users masturbate. Oh, and some vegetarian-friendly sex slang is in there somewhere. That&#8217;s something we can get down to/spend half an hour scrolling through.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s what we learned:</p>
<p><strong>1. Exercise has something to do with how easily you orgasm</strong>. This one compares the difficulty a woman has achieving an orgasm based on whether or not she likes to exercise. From the results, it looks like you better suck it up and start enjoying that morning run, ladies.</p>
<p><strong>2. People who like grammar also like rough sex. </strong> OkCupid pulled words from users profiles and came up with the following conclusions. People who like rough sex are into grammar, piercings, and anime. And people who like gentle sex? Boating, gardening, and England. Not sure about those, but if it&#8217;s in an infographic, it must be true.</p>
<p><strong>3. Carnivores aren&#8217;t as into oral sex.</strong> Totally random, but fun fact. Vegetarians are way more into it. It must be the general lack of protein.</p>
<p><strong>4. Twitter Addicts Are Lonelier</strong>. Twitter addicts, beware. These charts question, respectively, how long relationships last and the odds of masturbating today for people who use Twitter every day vs. everyone else. Looks like all those tweets are getting in the way of actual social interaction and causing a pandemic of sexually repressed loners&#8230;#sad</p>
<p><span id="more-105848"></span><strong>5. Most Women Deny Masturbating</strong>. This one is divided up by gender and religion. Not surprisingly, the females are much quicker to deny ever getting dirty with themselves. The lowest in denial are Christian men &#8212; way to tell the truth, boys.</p>
<p><strong>6. Curvy Women Have the Most Self-Confidence in Bed</strong>. By far the best chart in the game, due to the fact that it&#8217;s interactive and really fun to play with. There&#8217;s a lot going on here, but basically it tells us that (self-proclaimed) curvy women have the most confidence and sex drive throughout their entire lives, while everyone else peaks in their 20s and really has nothing to look forward to after that. Cheers, curvy ladies.</p>
<p><strong>7. The most you pay for college, the more you have sex. </strong>Though I&#8217;m pretty sure college kids are horny across the board, apparently the more they pay (or the more their dad pays&#8230;) the more they want to get it on.</p>
<p>And the last greatest thing about this&#8211;mo goats mo problems. Don&#8217;t get it? Check out the full chart listing for yourself over at <a href="http://blog.okcupid.com/index.php/10-charts-about-sex/">OkCupid</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://collegecandy.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/28/justwearit.gif?w=315&#038;h=309" alt="justwearit.gif" width="315" height="309" align="right" />Two days ago, I went to my university’s health center.  Now, usually I completely disregard any information I get at the health center on the grounds of either A) I have heard that every year since I first took sex ed in 7th grade, or B) Those &#8216;doctors&#8217; are full of ish.</p>
<p>But this time, by the luck of the draw, I happened to get a check-up from someone that (gasp!) actually knew what they were talking about.  I’m not saying you should listen to this doctor (nurse practitioner, if you want to get technical) instead of your own, but these are a few little known facts I picked up that I thought I would share.</p>
<p>Beware, as these tidbits may scare you away from sex for life (or at least for the night).</p>
<p><strong>1.  In order for your birth control to be 99.7% effective, you must take it every day within 30 minutes of the same time.</strong><br />
Apparently, the hormones that make you temporarily infertile only work for 24 straight hours.  According to Susan (the nurse practitioner), you should be okay if you miss the time by 1 to 2 hours.  If you miss more than that, however, you should use condoms for <em>at least a week</em>.<span id="more-96560"></span></p>
<p><strong>2.  If you don’t take birth control at the same time every day, the effectiveness can be as low as 92%.</strong><br />
For all of you that have taken statistics, that means you have an 8% chance of getting preggers.  Let me say that clearer: the chance of you having a small person come out of you in 9 months is 26 times higher if you don’t take your b.c. regularly.  Noooo, thank you. (For more important facts about your pill, <a href="http://collegecandy.com/2011/03/21/7-things-you-need-to-know-about-your-pill/">click here</a>.)</p>
<p><strong>3.  Some STDs, especially HIV, have an incubation period of up to 6 months.</strong><br />
That means that even if you are negative for the disease today, you won’t be in the clear until you have another negative test 6 months from now.  And that only applies if you haven’t engaged in any high-risk sexual activity.  In short, make him wrap it up.</p>
<p><strong>4.  You can get HIV easier from oral-anal contact aka “rimming” (the grossest sex slang ever) than from any other form of oral sex.</strong><br />
This one was in a Safe Sex pamphlet that Susan so generously gave me.  Not that I’m recommending that everybody run and try this one out, but just use that fact to put things into perspective. Or as a very handy excuse to say no if/when your partner ever puts in such a request.</p>
<p><strong>5.  Alcohol and drugs can weaken your immune system, making you more susceptible to infection.</strong><br />
Yes kids, that includes STDs and other icky things.  I can also testify that being drunk makes having sex, especially enjoyable sex, just that much more difficult to maneuver.  What’s more, according to my lovely pamphlet, alcohol and drugs can also impair your judgment and make you do things you may regret in the morning.  Who knew?</p>

Like every day.</p>
<p>Instead of turning to sweets (bad for the weight) or vibrators (bad when you&#8217;re in an office), I did a little online research. On sex. Here are some tres interesting tidbits about the most talked about subject in the universe (thanks to <a href="http://breathetheoxygen.blogspot.com/2007/03/more-than-20-weird-and-crazy-sex-facts.html">breathetheoxygen</a>):</p>
<p><span style="font-family:Georgia;"><strong>1.</strong> According to the Kinsey Institute, the biggest erect penis on record measures 13 inches. The smallest tops off at 1 3/4 inches.</span></p>
<p><strong>2.</strong> The most common fantasy is oral sex.</p>
<p><strong>3.</strong> 8% of us have regular anal sex.</p>
<p><strong>4.</strong> 60% of men and 54% of women have had a 1-night stand.</p>
<p><strong>5.</strong> Women buy 4 out of every 10 condoms sold.</p>
<p><strong>6.</strong> In 1609, a doctor named Wecker found a corpse in with two penises. Since then, there have been eighty documented cases of men similarly endowed.</p>
<p><strong>7.</strong> Men say the average erect penis is 10″. Women say it’s 4″.</p>
<p><strong>8.</strong> A female orgasm is a powerful painkiller (because of the release of endorphins), so headaches are in fact a bad excuse not to have sex.</p>
<p><strong>9.</strong> 56% of men have had sex at work.</p>
<p><strong>10.</strong> Among the Mangaians of Polynesia, 18-year-old couples make love an average of three times a night, every night, until their thirties, when the weekly average drops to a mere 14.</p>
<p><strong>11.</strong> 1 in 3 of us have had an extramarital affair.<span id="more-964"></span></p>
<p><strong>12.</strong> 62% think there is nothing wrong with affairs.</p>
<p><strong>13.</strong> The maximum speed at which erotic sensations travel from skin to brain has been clocked at 156 miles per hour.</p>
<p><strong>14.</strong> A honeymooning couple sued Holiday Inn for ten thousand dollars, claiming their sex life is now dysfunction because an employee mistakenly walked in on them on their wedding night.</p>
<p><strong>15.</strong> At least 500 Americans die each year from asphyxia in an attempt to lessen oxygen flow to the brain in order to induce a more powerful orgasm.</p>
<p><strong>16.</strong> England’s King Edward VII, a man of considerable heft, had a special table built so that he could comfortably engage in sexual intercourse.</p>
<p><strong>17.</strong> 29% of us are virgins when we marry.</p>
<p><strong>18.</strong> The average sexual experience lasts about 39 minutes.</p>
<p><strong>19.</strong> 58% like dirty talk during sex.</p>
<p><strong>20.</strong> 22% rent porno flicks at least once.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>21.</strong> Given today’s average frequency of sexual intercourse, it would take the typical American couple more than four years to try every one of the 529 positions described in the Kama Sutra.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="size-full wp-image-26655 alignright" title="aphrodisiac" src="http://collegecandy.files.wordpress.com/2009/04/aphrodisiac.jpg" alt="aphrodisiac" width="308" height="330" /></p>
<p>We’ve all heard about aphrodisiacs and the supposed boost they can give to our sex lives. I hate to burst your bubble, but most sources say that there is no such thing as an aphrodisiac. Regardless, I decided to go through some of the most notorious aphrodisiacs and anaphrodisiacs to let you decide for yourself.<span> </span>Hey, it couldn’t hurt…</p>
<p><strong>Oysters</strong> – Most sources deem this one as pure myth, but there are a few that find some truth in the claim. According to <a href="http://health.msn.com/health-topics/sexual-health/mens-sexual-health/articlepage.aspx?cp-documentid=100101156">MSN Health and Fitness</a>, an American and Italian study found a compound in oysters that may increase testosterone and estrogen production. A professor from Harvard, however, denounced this as complete poppycock. And we all know, what Harvard says, goes.</p>
<p><strong>Chocolate</strong> – Every source I have looked at have attributed the chocolate/love connection to the Aztecs, so I thought I would give them the credit as well. Chocolate increases levels of serotonin and phenylethylamine, neurotransmitters in the brain that are known for their feel-good properties. Many liken this effect to the feeling of being in love, which I can say with confidence, is entirely true. Like most women, I <em>love</em> chocolate and transfer that love to anybody who will supply me with my daily (okay, hourly) dose.</p>
<p><strong>Alcohol</strong> – This is the only one that has been attributed to being an aphrodisiac and an anaphrodisiac at the exact same time. Let’s break it down.<br />
<em>Pros:</em> Reduces inhibition and increases confidence, making it feel like a boost in sex drive. Add that to the beer goggle effect and you’re ready to go.<br />
<em>Cons</em>: Alcohol actually makes it harder for you and your partner to achieve orgasm. Plus, you run the risk of being a victim of the I-think-I’m-sexy-but-I-actually-look-terribly-sloshed look.<span id="more-26654"></span></p>
<p><strong>Vanilla</strong>: This is my favorite scent ever. And, according to a visitor on the Tyra Banks Show (an extremely credible source), men also go crazy for the sweet aroma as well.<a href="http://www.vanilla.com/html/sexandlove.html">Vanilla.com</a> (which I daresay, may be a tad biased) goes so far to say that the scent increases penile blood flow. I don’t know how accurate that is, but I do know that this scent is definitely yummy.</p>
<p>And now the rumored anaphrodisiacs, AKA the sex drive killers:</p>
<p><strong>Licorice</strong>: <a href="http://www-biology.ucsd.edu/~msaier/earthessays/25_Love_Potion.html">A study </a>published in the New England Journal of Medicine found that some ingredients in licorice actually suppress libido by reducing testosterone production. According to the article, “It’s about as effective as smoking a marijuana joint,” whatever that means. If you need to prevent weekend “mistakes,” however, don’t turn to the disgusting black candy for the same effect. Black licorice uses anise oil for flavoring instead of licorice oil, so you gotta go straight to the source if you want to see results.</p>
<p><strong>Graham crackers</strong> – According to <a href="http://www.slashfood.com/2008/04/01/anaphrodisiac-foods/">Slashfood.com</a>, graham crackers were developed to lower sex drive. The inventor, Sylvester Graham, believed that food sitting in the stomach for a long time could increase sexual desire (apparently a bad thing to Sylvester). Thus, he decided to make graham crackers, a healthy snack that contains minimal fat and therefore, does not linger in the stomach for too long. In fact, the same idea inspired Kellogg to make his Corn Flakes cereal.Hey, I’ll take any excuse to eat more fatty foods.</p>
<p><strong>Nicotine</strong>: This highly addictive substance can decrease sexual desire and even result in impotence, according to <a href="http://books.google.com/books?id=nsgOAAAAQAAJ&amp;pg=PA128&amp;lpg=PA128&amp;dq=nicotine+%2B+anaphrodisiac&amp;source=bl&amp;ots=HD9CHYCzW0&amp;sig=440kYkxkDklbgrSu6Zu1X_s6yrg&amp;hl=en&amp;ei=dT_dSa79I4e8NYrLqd0N&amp;sa=X&amp;oi=book_result&amp;ct=result&amp;resnum=3">The Book of Aphrodisiacs</a> by Raymond Stark. Smoking cigarettes makes you smell gross anyways, so put down the cancer stick and get busy.</p>
<p>Although these aren’t really proved in science, I think I’ll add beans, onions, and garlic to that list. What are your personal (an)aphrodisiacs?</p>

<p><em>Got a question for the Tuffster? Email her at tuffyluv@collegecandy.com to be featured in her weekly column! ASK ASK ASK!!!</em></p>
<p><strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Dear Tuffy Luv,</strong></p>
<p>Continuing your theme of lists from last week&#8211; what are the different kinds of sex toys?</p>
<p>Thanks!!</p>
<p>BunnyRabbit<span id="more-26449"></span></p>
<p><strong>Dear BunnyRabbit,</strong></p>
<p>A girl after my own heart. Or other organ. Whatever.</p>
<p>Okay, let&#8217;s get down to business. I&#8217;m just gonna list the basic types and you can do with that what you will:</p>
<p><strong>Dildos:</strong> This is what a girl most easily substitutes for a penis.</p>
<p><strong>Vibrator:</strong> The most common, right? This is the one everyone talks about (with good reason). They, like&#8230;vibrate. And it&#8217;s nice. There are a bunch of different kinds, including:</p>
<ul>
<li>Penetrating (goes in)</li>
<li>G-spot (little &#8216;n&#8217; easy to use)</li>
<li>Anal (goes in&#8230;the other hole)</li>
<li>Rabbit (has a vibrating shaft and little rabbit ears for the clitoris)</li>
<li>Wand (for the clitoris&#8211;looks like and is sometimes marketed as a massagey thing)</li>
<li>Bullet (insert &#8216;er and enjoy)</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Anal Toys:</strong> To get your booty on, including:</p>
<ul>
<li>Anal beads (balls on a string inserted in your bum)</li>
<li>Butt plug (stick it in and have fun in the other end)</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Nipple Stimulators:</strong> To get the nips hard</p>
<ul>
<li>Nipple clamps (for those who like a little pain)</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Ben Wa Balls:</strong> Very specific balls (DON&#8217;T JUST USE ANYTHING) that you put inside the hooha that roll around to enhance orgasm.</p>
<p>And, of course, there are always fingers.</p>
<p>Enjoy, girl!</p>
<p><strong>Hearts &amp; Skulls,</strong></p>
<p><strong>Tuffy Luv</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://media.rd.com/rd/images/rdc/books/7-stages-of-marriage/ultimate-sex-guide-for-newlyweds-af.jpg" alt="" width="369" height="279" align="right" /></p>
<p>There are a plethora of factors separating teenagers from adults.  You know you&#8217;re an adult when you start practicing various combinations of adult-like things.  Paying your own bills, making important decisions by yourself, working, and having sex, amongst other things, encompass adulthood.</p>
<p>But when you&#8217;re a teenager looking onto your sexuality from afar, you&#8217;ll believe just about anything you&#8217;re told about sex, particularly if you&#8217;re being told by someone who has actually had it.  Once you merge further into your adulthood and sexuality, though, you start to realize that a lot of things you were told about sex (or made to believe in some other way) are bullsh*t.</p>
<p>Some of the biggest myths about sex:</p>
<p><strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>1.  Men want sex more than women.</strong></p>
<p>Um, no.  There are always exceptions, yes.  BUT, lots of women love lots of sex.  Do women always love sex with a guy who&#8217;s being a punk?  Nope.  Do women always love sex when they&#8217;re exhausted or emotional?  Nope.  But none of this has to do with how much women want sex.  In fact, I almost always want more sex than my boyfriends do.<span id="more-16584"></span></p>
<p><strong>2.  Size doesn&#8217;t matter.</strong></p>
<p>It doesn&#8217;t matter to everyone.  But, sadly, size does make a difference.  Sure, it&#8217;s &#8216;not about the size of the boat, it&#8217;s the motion of the ocean&#8217;, yada yada yada.  But, that will only get a guy so far if he&#8217;s greatly lacking in size.</p>
<p><strong>3.  Women don&#8217;t like porn.</strong></p>
<p>Untrue.  Not all women like porn, but saying women don&#8217;t like porn is about as barbaric as saying women don&#8217;t fart, either.  While I completely respect the fact that some ladies view porn as derogatory toward women, I simply don&#8217;t (fully) agree.  And I, last time I checked, am still a woman.</p>
<p><strong>4.  You can&#8217;t get pregnant when ______.</strong></p>
<p>Here are some facts:  You CAN get pregnant on your period.  You CAN get pregnant if he pulls out.  You CAN get pregnant from standing up sex, as well as shower sex.  You CAN get pregnant while using condoms, the pill, or any other form of birth control other than abstinence.</p>
<p><strong>5.  Men can&#8217;t feel anything with condoms.</strong></p>
<p>Men can feel stimulated with condoms on.  Is it the same, or even close to the same, as how sex feels for them without a condom?  No, but that doesn&#8217;t mean that condom sex has to suck.  I&#8217;ve been having it for years and the men are always satisfied.  With that said, if a guy gives you a problem about having sex with a condom, offer him no sex at all in exchange.  There are far too many STDs running rampant these days to risk it, plus having sex without a condom increases the risk of pregnancy greatly.  Are you really ready for that?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://collegecandy.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/28/justwearit.gif?w=336&#038;h=330" alt="justwearit.gif" align="right" height="330" width="336" />Two days ago, I went to my university’s health center.  Now usually I completely disregard any information I get at the health center on the grounds of either a) I have heard that every year since I first took sex ed in 7th grade, or b) they’re full of ish.</p>
<p>But this time, by the luck of the draw, I happened to get a check-up from someone that (gasp!) actually knew what they were talking about.  Now I’m not saying you should listen to this doctor (nurse practitioner if you want to get technical) instead of your own, but these are a few little known facts I picked up that I thought I would share.  Beware, as these tidbits may scare you away from sex for life (or at least for the night).</p>
<p><strong>1.  In order for your birth control to be 99.7% effective, you must take it every day within 30 minutes of the same time.  </strong></p>
<p>Apparently, the hormones that make you temporarily infertile only work for 24 straight hours.  According to Susan (the nurse practitioner), you should be okay if you miss the time by 1 to 2 hours.  If you miss more than that, however, you should use condoms for at least a week.<span id="more-16406"></span></p>
<p><strong>2.  If you don’t take birth control at the same time every day, the effectiveness can be as low as 92%.</strong></p>
<p>For all of you that have taken statistics, that means you have an 8% chance of getting preggers.  Let me say that clearer: the chance of you having a small person come out of you in 9 months is 26 times higher if you don’t take your b.c. regularly.  Noooo thank you.</p>
<p><strong>3.  Some STDs, especially HIV, have an incubation period of up to 6 months.</strong></p>
<p>That means that even if you are negative for the disease today, you won’t be in the clear until you have another negative test 6 months from now.  And that only applies if you haven’t engaged in any high-risk sexual activity.  In short, make him wrap it up.</p>
<p><strong>4.  You can get HIV easier from oral-anal contact aka “rimming” (the grossest sex slang ever) than from any other form of oral sex.</strong></p>
<p>This one was in a Safe Sex pamphlet that Susan so generously gave me.  Not that I’m recommending that everybody run and try this one out, but just use that fact to put things into perspective.</p>
<p><strong>5.  Alcohol and drugs can weaken your immune system, making you more susceptible to infection.</strong></p>
<p>Yes kids, that includes STDs and other icky things.  I can also testify that being drunk makes having sex, especially enjoyable sex, just that much more difficult to maneuver.  What’s more, according to my lovely pamphlet, alcohol and drugs can also impair your judgment and make you do things you may regret in the morning.  Who knew?</p>
