IOL: The Brazilian town of Esperantina on Monday staged an orgy of conferences on topics ranging from impotence to premature ejaculation to mark its annual Orgasm Day.

The northern town of 38 000 people has been marking Orgasm Day informally for four years but the municipal council voted on Saturday to make it an official event.

New Haven Advocate: This is the decade of the queer heterosexual, the non-monogamous relationship, and of finding spirituality through sex, according to Tristan Taormino. Even if you fit within traditional gender definitions, aspire to be with someone 'til death do you part, and get your spirituality once a week far removed from your bed, you should believe her. As one of the country's foremost sex experts, it's her job to know.

Gothamist (August, 2004): Tristan Taormino is an inspiration, and a sensation. She is literally all over the map, from a recent trip to teach sex ed in Germany, to appearances on HBO's Real Sex and Ricki Lake, a column in the Village Voice, authoring numerous books, most notably The Ultimate Guide to Anal Sex for Women. It's hard to even try to summarize her career, so I won't.

Seattle Times: It advocates access to safe and legal abortions for all women, decries Brazilian bikini waxing for making adults resemble prepubescent girls, supports same-sex couples' right to marry and contains a six-part, illustrated tour of the female anatomy — featuring "the vagina and its neighbors."

"Our Bodies, Ourselves" is anything but a dull health-reference book. Thirty-five years after its debut as an angry feminist booklet that railed against condescending doctors, a newly revised edition of "Our Bodies" is targeting a new generation of readers.

Generic name: Vardenafil. Brand names: Levitra

Type of drug: Phosphodiesterase type-5 (PDE-5) inhibitor

Erections are usually controlled by a balance of two body chemicals, one which causes erections and another which takes them away.

Vardenafil works by reducing the action of the second chemical (called PDE-5) and allows an erection to last long enough to satisfactorily complete sexual activity. It will only work when the patient is sexually stimulated.

PRWEB - The erotic romance market has boomed in recent years, but author Diana Laurence believed these books about desire left a lot to be desired.

"My philosophy is that erotica can be good for you, a sort of literary health food that brightens the spirit, inspires creativity, and helps balance the psyche," Ms. Laurence said. A devotee of Thomas Moore, the Jungian ex-monk who authored "The Soul of Sex," Laurence developed a writing style that was graphically sensual, but tasteful and literary.

Erotica with soul blog: Men eally need to wear eyeliner. In my humble opinion, we really need to live in a society where men wear eyeliner.

Now I know a lot of traditional women will initially balk at this. Real men don’t wear eyeliner, eh? Well, before I launch into a refutation of that, ladies: Ponder the visage of Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow in “Pirates of the Caribbean” and tell me you don’t feel a twinge.

Fact is, eyeliner makes the eyes appear larger and draws attention to their beauty.

Health24.com: Thirteen of 15 compulsive gamblers who took the antidepressant Celexa in a Brown University study reported they gambled less and had fewer urges to gamble.

The patients were given Celexa, an antidepressant in a class of drugs known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), and were asked to report to the researchers every two weeks over three months.

Breen says some participants reported improvement at their first appointment, suggesting a placebo effect because the drugs take several weeks to become effective. But he says improvements over three months showed the added benefit of the drug.

Several participants reported sexual side effects, such as impotence and the inability to achieve orgasm, Breen says.

The Oxford Student: Ron Jeremy, however, is no mere prop. This is a man who, despite describing himself as “living proof that anyone can get laid,” was rated the number one porn star of all time by Adult Video News.

With the prospect of a glittering porn career ahead of me, according to the man affectionately known as The Hedgehog, I enquire as to the best way to go about achieving x-rated stardom. From Jeremy’s mouth comes a tirade of tips, blasted out at an almost unintelligible speed, darting back and forth haphazardly. “The best thing you can do to get a job, if you want to do a heterosexual film, is bring a real good looking girl with you. The better looking she is, the quicker your job.

The Pornstar blog: Ron Jeremy joined the likes of Mother Teresa, Ronald Reagan, Winston Churchill, Malcolm X, Robert Kennedy and the Dali Lama last Wednesday, when he addressed the Oxford Union in Oxford, England.

The Union, founded in the 1800’s, is known for debating some of the most significant topics of our times. Jeremy’s appearance reportedly was the buzz around town as many English big wigs came to see him as he defended pornography and the adult industry.

Salon: Ron Jeremy, sometimes known as Ron Hyatt (his real name), also known as the Hedgehog (not his real name), is best known, improbably, as the world's most famous male porn star. Why improbably? Well, he's 43 years old, 5-foot-7 and a slice of cheesecake away from 200 pounds. He's also as hairy as a Chia Pet. And his swarthy, puffy, sometimes sweaty, mustachioed mug inspires comparisons to Pagliaccio and the Frito bandito. A stereotypical stud, Ron Jeremy is not.
