A collage featuring several of the gift ideas in the blog below. The winter holidays are fast approaching. If you need gift ideas with jingle and va va voom, Your Sexy Librarian recommends the following items be stowed under some mistletoe. PrimO Tux Vibe Ring is a premium silicone penis ring from The Screaming O. With features such as 3 vibration speeds and a pulse setting, this little dynamo is sure to please. The ring is latex- and phthalate-free, reusable, waterproof and wireless. The battery has 45-minute life and can be easily replaced. The retail price is between $19.95 and $24.95. Purchase online at The Screaming O or at Lover’s Lane. Cards Against Humanity™ is “a party game for horrible people” and makes a great gift for those with a sense of humor. Warning: the uber-conservative and the easily offended may not enjoy playing this game. The card deck is separated into black question cards and white answer cards. Each player takes turns pulling a question card from the deck. The other players then place an answer card face-down on the table. The player with the question card reads aloud each answer card, and this is where the fun begins.

Of all the American holidays, Thanksgiving is the BIG DEAL holiday for me. I spend a massive amount of preparation getting my family’s meal planned and all the ingredients purchased before the crowds hit the stores. I then spend several hours in my mother’s kitchen cooking and baking, usually with her beside me the entire time. Guests who arrive early can see the kitchen dance that she and I do as we move in synch with one another, prepping, cooking, and cleaning as we go. There is always a great deal of taste testing and laughter going on while she and I work. It culminates in all the family sitting down and enjoying a holiday meal together. What has this to do with sexual health, sexual issues, and taboo topics? Not a thing, unless one looks at my birthplace. I am extremely fortunate to have been born a female in the United States of America. A big reason I value being an American is that I am guaranteed freedom of speech. I am allowed by law to research, write, and publish blogs about sexual health, sexual issues, and taboo topics. I can have a conversation with anyone, male or female, with or without someone else being present. Women in some foreign countries are not allowed to obtain an education, little on say or publish whatever they wish or speak to whomever they wish. As an American, I can wear whatever clothing I choose to wear as long as it does not violate any local or state laws. I can emphasize my cleavage every day of my life. My...

Brown bag speed dating, in which participants wear brown paper grocery bags over their heads during the speed dating event, has made its way from London to New York City. Loveflutter, a dating app that matches people based on personality criteria, is hosting the first of such speed dating events for 60 people in the Big Apple. Participants are charged $25 to attend the event, and the cost includes a brown paper grocery bag and a decorating kit with which to personalize the bags. The bags will have cut-outs for eyes, nose, and mouth so participants can breathe and talk. The idea behind this unusual form of speed dating is that participants get to know people as they are without physical appearances getting in the way. Participants will remove the bags at the end of the event to reveal their physical selves to other participants. Sources: ABC News and bigappled.com Sprout Pharmaceuticals, a Raleigh, North Carolina-based company, is locked in a battle with the Food and Drug Administration over the company’s drug Flibanserin. The latter wants more data on how Flibanserin interacts with other medications prior to approving the new drug. If approved, Flibanserin will be the country’s first prescription medication for the treatment of female sexual dysfunction. In contrast, there are 25 drugs on the market for the treatment of male sexual dysfunction. Sprout has been trying for three years to bring Flibanserin to market as a treatment for Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder (HSDD), in which a woman has no thoughts about sex and lacks desire for sex and is distressed...

My collection of sexual health books rivals those of major metropolitan libraries. My residence is littered with these books and is a source of amusement for my friends and family, who peruse small piles of my books when they visit. I almost always have a book with me, and it is almost always a book about something sexual. (Side note: When I shop at my local bookstore, I sit down in the sexual health section, make a stack of books that look interesting, and then make my selections for purchase out of that pile. As I am doing this, I have noticed people avoid me and the aisle I am sitting in as if a plague were present instead of one woman on a quest. My advice for people who need a few moments of peace and quiet is to go sit in the sexual health aisle of a bookstore and enjoy a moment of solitude.) Rarely do I read a sexual health book I think every adult needs to read as well. I have just finished reading an absolute gem of a book called Men Are Pigs And That’s a Good Thing by Ron Sturgeon, who spent four years interviewing men and women for his book. Sturgeon took the techniques he used to build successful businesses and applied them to suggest ways to create long-lasting, sex-filled relationships for adults of all ages. His book is geared toward the heterosexual male-female relationship, but his suggestions for building intimacy can be used by anyone of any...

This blog pays homage to the syndicated column, News of the Weird, by creating a list of sexual issues, sexual health, and other taboo topics in the recent news. Holly Stewart, a grandmother from Kansas City, Missouri, asked for money on Kickstarter to help fund her penis art business. She wanted to raise $250 to pay for promotional posters to advertise her art exhibit HollyPolyester: Local Grandmother Quilts Giant Penises, which ran from September 4-19, 2014, at the University of Missouri-Kansas City Gallery of Art. The grandmother raised $300 on Kickstarter, and her art show took place as planned. Stewart’s art includes life-size and giant quilted penises made from colorful materials and penis sculptures made from pins and sequins. Sources: elitedaily.com and the UMKC Gallery of Art website Auxilium Pharmaceuticals, a drug maker located in Chesterbrook, Pennsylvania, laid off 200 workers, or 30 percent of its workforce, on September 10, 2014. The pharmaceuticals company, which has not made a profit since 2012, sells 12 products dedicated to men’s health, including the testosterone gel Testim, the erectile dysfunction drug Stendra, and the Peyroine’s disease (penile curvature deformity) drug Xiaflex. Stendra is the first new erectile dysfunction drug to hit the American market in nearly a decade, and the company is awaiting a decision from the Food and Drug Administration to change the drug’s label to indicate a 15-minute onset of action over the current label’s 30-minute onset of action, which means it may take less time than previously thought for the drug to take effect. Auxilium expects to pay $20 million in...
