sexy times

Europe is a continent filled with a vast variety of cultures, languages, and laws. Often on this side of the world, we like to clump them into one big group, "European's have such good style," "European's are wine-oholics," "'European's are so sexual." But it's really impossible to talk about them all at once. Within Europe, there are some cities coined as fashion capitals, and some countries are actually very open when it comes to sexual exploration, but there are also catholic countries where you won't see a lot of sexual empowerment. Also, some countries have Muslim majorities where people don't drink alcohol at all.

The point of all of this is that it is fascinating to explore the many different perspectives of Europe and even compare them to what we have going on here in the US. On Reddit people from different European counties shared their 'sexual normalities,' and you might find the answers to be very titillating.

Our lives are run by social media these days, and we're all about instant gratification. It comes as no surprise that hookup culture has been growing, thriving, and becoming the best version of itself. Whether or not you're a hookup culture participant, dating apps have been keeping the culture alive and well. The people of Twitter have some of their own thoughts to share about hookup culture, and what they have to say is hilarious. Scroll down for the best hookup tweets of this week. 

There are a lot of things that can ruin the mood in bed. It can be hard to 'resume' after the most un-sexy song pops up on shuffle, or somebody receives a phone call from an ex, or when a not-so-subtle fart sound occurs. But, we already knew that sex is definitely not what it's like in the movies, so we expect weirdness to ensue from time to time.

However, if you find yourself with a partner who has an 'unmoanable' name, you may have to make a decision. Do I say it, even if it ruins the mood? Have they ever even used this name for a love interest in a movie?

If you have some deal-breaker names that you cannot say in bed without laughing, this Reddit thread will probably make you chuckle.

We've all experienced the walk of shame after a wild night out on the town. It's essentially a rite of passage to going out. The term has recently been redefined as "stride of pride," as people have been arguing that they're not ashamed that they had an awfully good time last night. Obvi, Twitter always gets in on the fun. People take to the platform on a weekly basis to share their own personal 'walks of shame,' and many have nothing to do with the morning after. Whether sex was actually involved or not, these tweets are hilarious. 

In every relationship, we have our deal-breakers. And some of us have very special relationships with the world of porn. We build a certain trust with the industry. Good vibes only you might say. But we all know you can't always control what's about to pop up on your screen, and then you immediately have to turn it off and slowly recover. These kinds of experiences can hurt your relationship with your go-to porn site, especially since it was built on trust. But that's showbiz.

If you've ever had to go on a break from your favorite porn site, you may relate to these deal-breakers that people shared on Reddit.

Sex can be a very beautiful thing. It is the ultimate connection of two souls, the beginning of new life, one of the best ways to demonstrate your love for someone. But, let's be honest, it's not really always that. Sex is neither what is portrayed in hallmark movies or in violent and sadistic BDSM porn. A lot of the time it is just a way to feel good and make someone else feel good at the same time. 

That's the goal, but sometimes we are not successful. Sometimes sex is just hella embarrassing. There is so much potential for awkwardness, think about all the fart-like sounds your body can make. The ideal situation is that you do it with someone who makes you comfortable, and you then can both laugh it when you accidentally kick him in the face.

The walk of shame has become more iconic than shameful in recent years. There's nothing shameful about getting laid the night prior. Even if you look like absolute garbage right now, at least everyone you cross paths with knows you had a great time last night. Or at the very least, an okay night? I mean, everyone loves a good party. Either way, all is well in the world because now you get to happily skip on over to your own comfy bed! People constantly take to Twitter to joke about the walk of shame, and ya already know we're documenting the best ones on a weekly basis for y'all. 

Fetishes come in all shapes and sizes... and safety levels. It's hard to know where they come from. There may be no reason why somebody likes to be smacked, or whipped, or licked. And with the porn industry growing quickly it becomes easier and easier for people to discover what really gets them going. If you think you're into something weird, there's probably a platform for you somewhere that will show you how there are actually thousands of people just like you. As long as somebody's fetish is not going to put someone's life at risk, there's usually no harm. Though it's probably best for you to warn your partner before because they may not be into dressing up as animals, or Hilary Clinton.

Sex workers definitely have an interesting career. I think, naturally, we are all kind of curious about their day-to-day. Or maybe it's more like night-to-night. Still, it is a good thing that people are becoming more tolerant and accepting towards people with all kinds of careers. We all have to pay the rent somehow, the landlord doesn't care how we acquire our funds. Whether it's by selling cars or sticking things up your.... I digress.

Anyway, even with a job as unpredictable as them, there must be times where sex workers are caught way off guard by the requests they get. 

This Reddit thread capitalizes on such outlandish moments.

Doing the deed is a very intimate thing. A lot of unexpected things can happen that might cause some intense awkwardness. If you're really close with the person you're doing it with, you may be able to laugh it off, or agree to move past it...but sometimes the mood has simply left the chat, and there's no point in trying to rediscover it. We've all been there, the point of no return. Sometimes it's better to just stop and maybe reconvene at a more suitable time.

Whatever the case may be, eventually you will look back and at least think to yourself, "Hey, at least I peaced out before going further," because rest assured it can ALWAYS get worse.

These people shared their 'Peace Out' moments on Reddit, and you might find them relatable, comforting, or you might just thrive in the second-hand embarrassment.

Having a baby is hard work. Suddenly, your life revolves around this tiny human who depends on you for survival, and you better know what you're doing. Since parenting is a very much 'learn on the job' type of role, parenting basics don't necessarily come naturally, especially if you don't have children. One guy proved this while staying at his sister and brother-in-law's house when he relocated their sleeping baby from its nursery into a stroller in the hallway just so that he could have sex with his girlfriend in the nursery. Understandably, the situation left the baby's father fuming because the baby's blanket had fallen over his face, which could have been a fatally dangerous situation. He posted on Reddit's Am I The A**hole, explaining that his wife, who wasn't in town at the time, claims her husband is overreacting. Redditors disagreed and had A LOT to say on the matter.

The walk of shame is a notorious joke, the walk someone performs in the same clothes from the night before, which signals that they have clearly been involved in a sexual escapade in the aforementioned night. This infamous walk is common on college campuses, or simply on the weekends. People have been reclaiming the 'walk of shame,' referring to it as the 'stride of pride' or going as so far as to refer to it as the 'laid parade.' People on Twitter have been completely redefining the phrase, using it to jokingly refer to moments that have nothing to do with the morning after sex at all. Whether Twitter users are referring to the original walk of shame or their own versions of the walk of shame, their tweets are super entertaining. Scroll down for the best tweets about the walk of shame from this week. 

Pornography is a very dicey topic. Some people love it, some people think it is single-handily ruining the human experience of sex. I guess most of us are in the middle. But we can all agree that those websites possess a lot of sh*t. Like a lot of sh*t. You can find anything these days. If you think you're fetish is a niche, it's probably not. You can probably find 5,000+ videos of exactly what gets you going, but just remember porn is not reality. Don't be pulling out all those fancy tricks without some CLEAR consent first, alright? Good.

We're so here for these thirsty tweets, and therefore have decided to celebrate a hot celeb trending on Twitter on a daily basis every Thirsty Thursday.

Vibrators have been taking our Insta feeds by storm, and for good reason. In a world where so many men turn out to be major disappointments, women can always turn to their vibrators for solace. Everyone's getting in on the vibrator craze, either to promote their vibrator of choice or to make fun of influencers promoting that infamous purple vibrator. Naturally, Twitter did not disappoint when it comes to discussions about vibrators on the platform. Scroll down for the best tweets about vibrators this week. 

Sex-ed is a little different in each school. Every state has its own laws about how sex ought to be taught. Then there are private schools, which have completely free rein to teach whatever the f*ck they want. Should they have that authority? It's not my place to decide. But all of the people I know who got an abstinence-only sex-ed experience tend to have the craziest theories that they eventually have to unlearn, and sometimes it can be quite funny.
