How To Give A Good Blowjob
The time will come in your relationship when oral sex will be brought up. In fact, if one partner is a guy, you can almost guarantee it. If he's been giving a woman head and wants some for himself, you might want to think about reciprocating. If you're new to oral sex and are a little shy about it, here are some tips to get you through the first time. Chances are that you won't hurt him, if that's what you're worried about.
The best plan for this is communication! Talk to him, tell him you're unsure as to how to do this, and he'll probably be more than happy to guide you. Remember, practice makes perfect!
Getting in the mood
Ladies, make sure he understands that when it comes to blowjobs, mood is everything. Soft lighting, candles, all of this plays a part in you being in the mood to go down on him. Why? Because it's relaxing, and neither one of you are going to have any fun if you're not relaxed. Start by taking a bath together, if you can find a tub big enough. If not, take a shower. This will ensure that you're both smelling fresh, too. For some, giving head is a form of foreplay. If oral sex is the height of tonight's romp, however, start with another type of foreplay by licking, tickling, touching, tasting, and massaging. You want to get excited, and enjoy this as much as he will.
Start with your hand
Have him lean back against some pillows or sit on the edge of the bed or a chair. He's a guy; it's going to feel good even if you have him dangling upside down on a light post. This position is for your comfort. Stroke him, gently (very gently) squeezing his balls and then releasing. Think of them as stress balls, but don't squeeze so hard. Ask if you're unsure; check with him about how he wants you to hold his cock. The point of this exercise is to get him as hot as possible before you even use your mouth. The more excited he is, the less time oral sex will take, and if he's the type to go all night in other positions, you're going to want this to be over before morning. This is not because you're not having a good time, it's because giving head can be exhausting for a woman.
The tip of the penis and the base of the shaft are the two spots that you want to concentrate on when using your hand. Let your fingertips nibble for you at first. A very light touch, almost floating above the skin, is very tantric and exciting. If you take his hand and guide it to your clit, you can get him even more excited. When you're ready to use your mouth, the "69" position can be best to start with. He's getting excited, you're getting relaxed, and having you on top in the sixty nine position is by far the most comfortable for having that much cock in your throat. The angles of your throat and his penis will match much better in this position. Having him on top can make the blowjob a littler hard to control, so if this worries you, stay on top of him!
Go for the Throat
Now that he's hot and you're relaxed, you can take him in your mouth. Start with just your lips, and roll your tongue over the head of his penis. You can do this pretty much as long as you want, especially if you're still a little nervous. You don't want to hurt him, but you can't physically do this all night, it will cause your jaw and neck to hurt after awhile.
Start slow and take as much of him into your throat as you can; stop and back off if you need to. Use the back of your tongue in a swallowing motion and run your tongue around the shaft of the cock as you swallow. Pull back out and start sucking on him like he was a Popsicle, he will love it. Suck as hard as you want unless he indicates that he needs you to stop. Alternate the lips, tongue, and throat to bring him to climax. And ladies, try to swallow. His cum won't hurt you and if he's been expecting oral sex, hopefully he's been drinking fruit juice, it adds natural sugars to the semen and makes it taste better. Either way, spitting and then jumping up to brush your teeth will ruin the mood.
If you need help and he takes too long, use your hands as well as your mouth - the added stimulation may be just what he needs.
The secret to good oral sex
As much as you want to and love him, we talked about the pain in your neck and jaw. This will happen. The best technique for this to be as comfortable for as long as possible is to grab your jaw at the base and squeeze it with one hand. This relieves the pressure on the muscles around the jaw and will allow you to go longer. (This is another reason for soft lighting. If it's dark he probably won't notice what you are doing.)To take the pressure off your neck, as before, the "69" position is best for giving guys head.
The secret to not having to have his cock in your throat for an extended amount of time is to get him as hot as possible before you give him head. If you've already had sex tonight and he's cum once, forget giving head, unless you want it to take hours. If he's ready to burst before you even go down on him, it will still be pleasurable for both of you but you won't end up sore. Hot foreplay with sex toys are great for this purpose, especially if he's not expecting it. Give him a surprise and visit your local sex toy or adult bookstore alone to pick out something fun before the evening.
In Training
You can also train your lips, throat, and tongue. Exercising these muscles will increase stamina and help you feel more confident about giving head. The college students were right, using a banana or a cucumber to lessen your gag reflex really does work.
Start slow practice home alone, of course. Holding your lips in the "O" position for as long as you can and then repeating will strengthen them. You can do this while you're watching T.V. or reading--probably not a good idea while on the way to work using public transportation--or if you're really outgoing, invite a few of your girlfriends over for an exercise party.
Tongue exercises are the same for a girl as they are for a guy, but you won't need to develop yours as much. When guys are giving head, they primarily use the tongue, while women use the throat and lips. A type of tongue isometrics is best for women; hold your tongue curled back for as long as you can as often as you can to strengthen the muscle. You can do this one sitting at your desk at work.
If you follow these basic suggestions; comfort, training, foreplay, and willingness, you will become really good at giving head and he will really appreciate it.

How Yoga Can Improve Your Sex
Sleep on this: You'd have better sex if you were a loose woman. Limbering up with yoga will help you build a strong, supple body — and that leads to a lot more action in the bedroom, says Ellen Barrett, author of Sexy Yoga. "Yoga increases flexibility, which helps you to be free and just go for it in sex," she says. Here are five more reasons you should hit the mat before you hit the sack.
It Helps You Flow
Yoga increases your overall blood flow, and some positions, such as the eagle pose, direct it straight toward your pelvis. When all that blood rushes to your privates, it literally makes you hot. That heat, combined with a Viagra-like stimulation (as the blood swells your button), heightens your sensitivity and increases desire.
Yoga moves that blast belly fat!
It Makes You Stronger Down Below
Yoga tones and strengthens your entire core — which includes your pelvic floor. "The more you work these muscles, the greater range of motion you have," says Becky Jeffers, fitness director at the Berman Center for female sexual health and menopause management in Chicago. "This gives you stronger contractions and releases, which can help you experience a more intense orgasm."
It Breeds Confidence
Quieting your mind and focusing on your breath during a pose help you become more aware of yourself — and your own needs. "When you're present, you know what you need to feel fulfilled by your partner," Jeffers says. "You can then translate and communicate this deeper understanding to your partner during sex." Knowing and expressing your desires will make you feel good — psychologically as well as sexually.

Introducing Sex Toys into a Relationship
Introducing sex toys into a relationship can take both pleasure and intimacy to the next level and then some. In addition, the element of "fun" is brought into the picture, and being in a fun, playful relationship is something few couples truly achieve due to poor communication. With a sex toy, you can easily build a bridge toward fun sexual intimacy. Here are three important ways to bring sex toys into a relationship.
1. Start slow! Remember you're building a bridge and before you can put up the foundation you need to prep the work area. Introducing any outside element into sexual relations can be challenging. The easiest prep tool to use in order to ease into sex toys, are lotions or oils. What you are doing here is simply introducing a third element into your intimate relations, and you're starting with something simple. Once erotic oils and lotions are used, you've opened the door for other intimacy tools to be added in the future.
2. The foundation! You're foundation will set the stage for further sex toy adventures, so it's important to choose the right foundation. What you're looking to do here is to introduce an actual sex toy into the relationship. But it has to be a sex toy which is simple, gentle, and easy. In other words your foundation sex toy shouldn't be some elaborate contraption. You'll easily scare off your partner. Your foundation should be basic and something easy which you can further build upon in the near future. Various ticklers and the like would be an example of a simple foundations to begin building your sex toy adventures around.
3. Avoid the Crutch! You want to avoid becoming sex toy addicted and every intimate encounter having to rely on a sex toy. That is, don't turn a sex toy into a crutch. Use it only to enhance the relationship, not serve as the centerpiece where every intimate encounter is going to require a sex toy in order for pleasure to be achieved.
Sex toys, or intimacy tools, can be used as an automatic bridge to bring one another closer while achieving intimacy on a level never previously experienced.
Okay, So now that you are over the fear of adding a sex toy into your relationship, you might want to know which sex toys are the BEST to start out with! You may want to know where to get them? Well, there is NO BETTER place then Cosmopolitan's favorite Adam & Eve.
Here are a few suggestions we have for starter toys ....1.) Adam & Eve Water Proof Mini Massager only $11.95

The Ballerina Body Workout
Remember how you saw Black Swan last year and totally coveted Natalie Portman’s svelte bod? And remember how you meant to learn some ballet moves to tone up…but never got around to it? (It’s okay, we’re guilty too.)
For Your Hips and Butt
This is a surefire way to slim the sides of your butt and your outer hips.
(1) Hold onto the back of a chair or a windowsill with your right hand, and wrap your left arm across your waist so you are holding onto the support with both hands.
(2) Place your heels together and toes apart to form a V.
(3) Slide your left leg back on a diagonal to reach 7 o’clock, while softening your right leg and tucking your hips underneath you.
(4) Squeezing from your outer seat, lift your left foot a few inches off the ground, and flex.
(5) Pulse upward from your outer seat for 30 seconds.
(6) Still squeezing from your outer seat, pulse your left leg upward at a faster pace for 30 seconds.
(7) Point your toes, and repeat steps 5 and 6.
(8) Hold your left leg a few inches off the floor, and draw tiny circles in the air—keeping your seat engaged—for 15 seconds. Then reverse directions.
(9) Switch legs, and repeat.
For Your Buns and Thighs
By working the backs of your legs and the base of your derriere, you’ll firm up that “ledge” where they meet.
(1) Place your forearms on the chair or windowsill, and rest your head on your arms.
(2) Walk back so you are folded at a 90-degree angle—your back should be flat. Feet are hip-width apart and parallel.
(3) Bend your left knee, bringing your heel toward your seat and flexing your foot. Soften your right leg, and tuck your hips underneath you.
(4) Slowly press your heel up an inch then down an inch by squeezing the base of your left seat for 30 seconds.
(5) Repeat with smaller and faster movements for 30 seconds.
(6) Now extend your left leg straight back, and slowly lift it up and down an inch for 30 seconds.
(7) Repeat with smaller and faster lifts for 30 seconds.
(8) Switch legs, and repeat.
For Your Thighs and Core
This move targets your inner, outer, and upper thighs as well as your seat and core muscles. The payoff? Long, lean leg muscles and better posture.
(1) Hold onto the chair or windowsill with one hand, and place the other on your hip.
(2) Stand so your feet are wider than your hips, and turn your toes out slightly.
(3) Bend your knees, and lower your body, bringing your seat toward knee level.
(4) Slowly move down an inch, then up an inch, for 15 seconds.
(5) Repeat step 4 with smaller and faster tiny pulses for 30 seconds.
(6) Keeping your knees bent, rise onto the balls of your feet, and repeat step 4.
(7) Finally, stay on the balls of your feet (pretend you’re wearing your highest pair of heels), lower your butt as far as you can, and raise your free arm above your ear. Press your knees back for 30 seconds, firing from your inner thighs while engaging your seat.

Cosmopolitan Magazine's History
Cosmopolitan magazine is one of the oldest magazines in the United States. It was first published in 1886 by Schicht & Field as a family magazine called The Cosmopolitan; this version of the magazine proved to be popular and reached a circulation of 25,000 by 1888.
In 1889, John Brisbane and E.D. Walker took over the magazine after Schlicht & Field went out of business. The pair then transformed The Cosmopolitan magazine into a literary magazine, which became a success. By 1892 the magazine had a circulation of about 75,000.
In 1905 William Randolph Hearst bought the magazine for $400,000 and brought in journalist Charles Edward Russell, who contributed a series of investigative articles. Other contributors included now renowned authors Sinclair Lewis, George Bernard Shaw, Ida Tarbell and Upton Sinclair.
With a circulation of 1,700,000 in the 1930s, Cosmopolitan magazine had an advertising income of $5,000,000. In the 1940s it emphasized fiction and was subtitled "The Four-Book Magazine;" the first section had one novelette, six or eight short stories, two serials, six to eight articles and eight or nine special features, while the other three sections featured two novels and a digest of current non-fiction books. During World War II, sales peaked at $2,000,000.
In the 1950s the magazine cut back on fiction and circulation dropped to slightly more than a million in 1955. At this time magazines had to compete with and thus were overshadowed by the rise of paperbacks and television.
Cosmopolitan magazine's circulation continued to decline for another decade until Helen Gurley Brown became chief editor in 1965 and remodeled the magazine as New Cosmopolitan magazine, which was renamed Cosmopolitan magazine in 1967. At this time, Cosmopolitan became a women's magazine, focusing on young women and published articles that openly talked about relationships and sexual issues-a groundbreaking move.
Soon after Helen Gurley Brown's arrival Cosmopolitan became the must-read for young single woman. According to Cosmo's company history on the magazine's website, Cosmo also began to serve as "an agent for social change, encouraging women everywhere to go after what they want whether it be in the boardroom or the bedroom."
In 1999, Laurie Ouellette, PhD, wrote an article called "Inventing the Cosmo Girl," which examined the cultural impact of the magazine in the '60s and '70s. "What made it so desirable is that it outlined an American dream for single, working women," Laurie Ouellette said. "It provided them with a vision and detailed advice on how to live a better life - on their own terms."
In more recent years, with the mass production of niche magazines like Lucky, InStyle and Marie Claire, to name a few more recently published magazines, Cosmopolitan's cultural impact is less profound. Still, the magazine remains extremely popular; its content usually consists of articles like: "Cosmo's Guide to Red Hot Sex," "Cosmo Confessions: Hundreds of Absolutely Shameful, Scandalous and Sexy Real-Life Tales!" and "Turn on Your Man."
Cosmopolitan has had some missteps. In a 1988 issue, Cosmopolitan ran a feature maintaining women had a low-risk of contracting the HIV virus, after research indicated otherwise. More recently, because its cover stories and headlines have become sexually explicit, Kroger, one of the U.S.'s largest grocery chains, currently covers up Cosmopolitan at checkout stands because of customer complaints.
Still, Cosmopolitan magazine has a place in modern popular culture, including being referenced in many movies like "Legally Blonde" and television shows like "The O.C," "Will and Grace" and "Third Watch."
