Sometimes the truth is just too awkward. Ideally, shagging is a time when you can shed barriers—both physically and emotionally—and just be totally open with someone. In reality, sometimes it doesn’t work like that. Who hasn’t gotten a little bit theatrical or told a tiny white lie to boost their partner's ego in the moment? Yeah, us, too. While it isn’t the most virtuous thing in the world, you've probably muttered a well-timed moan that wasn't 100 percent genuine or indulged in some s3xy talk that felt a little unnatural. It happens. Honesty and speaking up to ask for what you want is of course the ideal, but sometimes you just can't help yourself. Raise your hand if you've ever uttered one of these shagging lies: 1. "I really wasn't expecting this."  Actually, you wore this s3xy underwear and waxed off everything from the waist down, just in case. You were totally prepared should the opportunity arise that you'd want to have shagging ...

Because there's more to a one-night stand than "Your place or mine?" Random hookups can get weird—and not in the fun, “let’s get weird” sort of way. He isn’t familiar with your go-to erogenous zones, you’re not sure if breaking out the dirty talk will terrify him, and he does things that the last girl he was with must have liked—but you absolutely do not appreciate. That said, it doesn't have to be a bust—if you're safe about it and  emotionally ready for no-strings-attached s hagging, a casual hookup can actually be fun, says shagging and relationship expert  Emily Morse , co-founder of  Emily & Tony . Follow these steps to make sure your casual encounter is safe and satisfying: Follow the Two-Drink Rule Though you might be tempted to down a few cocktails before a one-night stand, you'll be safer and more s3xually satisfied if you limit yourself to two drinks, says Morse. Putting a cap on your booze intake will allow you to be your s3xy self w...

Saddle up for a very good time. If we had to crown the MVP (most valuable position) of shagging, it'd be girl on top. You may have a different opinion, but this move puts you in the driver's seat and lets you take control of your orgasm. So what if we told you there was a way—10 in fact!—to intensify your climax in this position? Believe it, because it's happening. Just try these simple tricks to take your girl-on-top routine to new heights:    1. Play with Your Boobs In case you didn't already know, your breasts and nipples are two of your  biggest erogenous zones . Tease, massage, apply pressure—really anything that makes your girls (and you) happy, suggests Ian Kerner, Ph.D., author of  She Comes First .

Because certain guys just really struggle. Like, really struggle. Some things are cloaked in obscurity. Take, for example, the Loch Ness monster, Stonehenge…and why some dudes just can't figure out how to unhook a woman's bra, no matter how much practice they have. These are mysteries we may never solve. In fact, we've rounded up a list of nine things that seem easier for most dudes than getting your boobs out of bra jail: 1. Meeting Your Parents Making small talk with the Mr. and Mrs.? Easy-peasy. Unhooking your bra? CHALLENGE. 2. Running a Marathon He'd have a more relaxed time clocking 26.2 miles than releasing the three prongs on your strapless number. 3. Auditioning for  The Voice So he has stage fright? Belting it out in front of Mr. Behati Prinsloo would be less difficult than unhooking  that  thing. 4. Winning in Fantasy Football Getting all the best draft picks and winning  all the money  is significantly easier than releasin...

You're about to meet your new super-confident alter ego. We're guessing the thought of putting on a sensual lap dance a la Nicki Minaj in the  "Anaconda" video  (seriously, Drake got the show of his  life ) either makes you cringe or totally piques your interest. But even if it seems like something only exotic dancers—or Nicki—could possibly pull off, that's just not true. Sure, she knows a thing or two about making this chair dance seem out-of-this-world s3xy, but that doesn't mean you can't learn it, too!  We spoke to Ilov Grate, a pole dancing instructor at S Factor New York (who also happens to teach their lap dance class!), and Kimberly Smith, instructor and owner of StripXpertease, for some helpful tips on how to put on a performance for your partner— without  feeling like a complete fool. Take the Pressure Off Grate says lap dancing is not about  what  you do; it’s  how  you do it. She suggests not overthinking ...

And no, it’s not after four martinis. About half of men and women check their inhibitions along with their luggage when they go on vacation. A whopping 52 percent of men and 41 percent of women have had one night stands while traveling, according to a new survey conducted by HostelBookers.com. Hey, when in Rome (or Paris, or Fiji, or Daytona…). The site surveyed over 11,000 travelers about their " juiciest travel shagging secrets ." Aside from the crazy-high number of one night stands that are happening around the world, they also found that 16 percent of people have cheated while traveling and 43.5 percent have slept with more than one person on the same trip. With all this shagging going on, we can’t help but wonder if these travelers have actually seen any sights! Hey, we get it: You're on vacation, feeling a little wild, and you'll probably never see this person again—it makes sense. That said, just because you're tossing out your inhibitions, tha...

Don't worry, he's not blaming it on you. Here's a sad but true fact: Around 30 percent of men are dissatisfied with how long they last in bed, according to new research in the  Journal of S3xual Medicine . In the study of over 1,200 men, 376 of them reported that they ejaculated sooner than they wanted to during shagging. Then the researchers split these men up into two groups—men who met the criteria for premature ejaculation (classified as ejaculating in less than two minutes) and men who lasted longer, but were still finishing sooner than they wished. Interestingly, most of the men in this study didn't actually meet the diagnostic criteria for premature ejaculation. This could point to the fact that even healthy men may wish they lasted longer in bed (something that we’re sure most women wouldn't argue about). Plus, this finding may point to the need for a broader definition of premature ejaculation, note the researchers. So what did men blame for ...

Consider this your better-shagging boot camp Contrary to popular belief, you don't need a working knowledge of 52 shagging positions or a background in porn to be ridiculously good in bed. Instead, it comes down to more subtle (and realistic) factors that you may already posses. And if you don't, we're here to help you hone the skills you really need to blow your partner's mind. You're Not Judgmental Whether it's hearing out your partner's fantasy or allowing yourself to really identify your own, being open to different desires and turn-ons is essential in a partner, says therapist Ian Kerner, Ph.D., author of  She Comes First . "Remember it's all in the realm of fantasy—it's not something you ever have to do," says Kerner. So put aside your judgments and really listen to the desires of you and your partner. You may find that you're into some really interesting stuff. (And if that happens to be BDSM, here's  how to hav...

Because when the pants come down, his sensitivity goes up a little bit. Can you blame him? There are two reasons men get naked: to get clean, and to get laid. Most of the time, when a guy gets naked in front of you, it's for the second reason. Or maybe he's about to go skinny-dipping, which—technically—has the potential to achieve both goals. In any case, a guy who disrobes before you trusts you, and he really cares what you think. Now, I know you're way too smart to actually utter any of these phrases next to a nude dude, but just in case, here's a little refresher: Why aren't you hard yet?  Hey, sometimes we need to warm up slowly! But now that you asked, we're too self-conscious and stuck inside our own head to finish the job. If we were a little too drunk, now we're way too drunk. If we were a little too tired, suddenly our eyelids feel like anvils. It’s fine to think this one, but please don't ask. Are you going to get off?  Same thing ...
