sex

Most of us have had a summer romance or two, filled with drunken nights on the beach, sex under the stars, and inevitable raging hangovers the next morning. There's something about being abroad that brings out the adventurous side of us all, making us do things we would never do back home and giving us memories that will last forever. vacation hookups are the best, and the memories they leave us with usually last forever. There's something about being abroad that brings out the adventurous side in us all, and together with The Single Society, we bring you stories from real women who told us their craziest summer hookup accounts, sex and all. 

Sex is great when it goes smoothly. But sometimes something really awkward can happen and totally kill the moment, making you wish the ground would swallow you up. Usually, we keep those stories to ourselves, so they die with us, but these people have bravely revealed the true stories of the worst things that happened to them during sex. They're making us cringe so much, we feel sorry for them. Scroll through and feel their pain! 

Great sex isn't just about the deed itself. It's also about the lead-up, the mood, the whole vibe. And what happens after is just as important as what happens before and that includes the pillow talk. While most people use it as an opportunity to get to know the other person, talk about their shared experience, or possibly even plan the next time, there are some who try and make it as awkward as possible. Here are some of the weirdest things people have come up with to totally kill the moment after sex. Who said romance is dead?

We're living through a future history lesson right now... in 50 years, possibly even less, they'll be studying the Covid-19 era in classrooms, analyzing our behavior during this difficult time. And one of the things they'll look at is the way love and relationships went down during quarantine. These memes are a snapshot of the upside-down Coronavirus world we find ourselves in, showing how the pandemic is making and breaking relationships. 

It doesn't get much sillier than asking people to "name something you can say while at Chuck E. Cheese's and during sex." Turns out, folks were eager to respond.

For centuries, lovers have found inspiration and advice in the ancient text of the Kama Sutra. SNL alum, Simon Rich, and illustrator, Farley Katz, have unearthed a valuable document -- a guide to the positions most common after marriage. "The Married Kama Sutra: The World's Least Erotic Sex Manual" guide was first published in 2013 and can be classified under either horror or non-fiction, depending on the person reading it. 

Every year, the British publication Literary Review presents an award for Bad Sex in Fiction. Established in 1993 by the Literary Review editor, Auberon Waugh, and critic Rhoda Koenig, the award is given to high-profile literary novelists in an attempt to take them down a peg, really, though its purported mission is to "draw attention to poorly written, perfunctory or redundant passages of sexual description in modern fiction."

French author, Didier Decoin and John Harvey, a life fellow at Emmanuel College, Cambridge, were both announced as winners of the 2019 "Britain's most dreaded literary prize" after the judges struggled to pick just one winner.  

This is the first time either author has won the prize. In a statement announcing the result on Monday night, the judges said: "Faced with two unpalatable contenders, we found ourselves unable to choose between them. We believe the British public will recognize our plight as we were unable to choose even after hours of tortuous debate".

One more fact worth noticing is that this hilariously bizarre award has been dominated by male novelists over the years and only three women have won in 26 years. We can only wonder why...  

We have handpicked for you the most awful sexual scenes written in the last few years, including the two winning scenes of 2019.  

Well, you've asked for it...

Having kids can turn your life around. And no, we are not exaggerating. Just check out these hilarious illustrations by Katrin Davis/BuzzFeed. 

Sex Fears is a study that portrays in a series of infographics the things we fear the most when we are making love. Conducted on a sample of 2,000 European and American, the study compares the different sex-related fears for men and women, but also the differences between American and European.

There are people who are attracted to sunlight. And balloons. Yeah, we're not kidding. VagaBomb compiled a list of different fetishes, and it's just so fascinating seeing how some people's minds work!

A lot of things become harder after having kids but perhaps the most frustrating change is sex after kids (or the lack thereof). Remember those care free days of having sex where and whenever you want it? No? neither do these funny parents.

#ruinsexin3words is taking over Twitter, and it's been a while since we enjoyed people's responses so much!

In anticipation of Bright Wall/Dark Room's upcoming sex issue, they asked people to share their favorite steamy scenes in cinema.
