According to Lovehoney, The Sexual Happiness People, Canadians are into a wide range of activities and props when it comes to sex. The top search terms based on web searches and sales in the Great White North since 2020 are as follows:

General item searches:

• Dildo
• Butt Plug
• We-Vibe (a good Canadian brand)
• Dildo Moulding Kits
• Cock Ring

The most searched for body parts include:

• Nipples
• Anal
• Prostate
• Clit

It’s no surprise that Canadians are searching for dildos, butt plugs and prostates (our Anal Sex  & Prostate Play Episodes consistently rank as our most popular podcast shows), but we were surprised to learn that Canadians are so keen on moulding their own dildos.

How cool and crafty!

The Clone-A-Willy kit is apparently a best-seller, as it allows you to transform your lover’s phallus into a toy — it's the gift that keeps on giving. It comes in multiple colours and even offers the option to create a glow in the dark version.

It makes sense that we’re drawn to cloni...

This week we share our relationship check-in -- short(ish), sweet and unscripted.

Most couples invest in the start-up phase of their relationships (e.g. the wedding and honeymoon) and then they set themselves on autopilot without formally discussing their feelings, desires, goals and needs — until something goes wrong. By scheduling weekly or monthly check-ins, you can reduce tension, improve understanding and nip issues in the bud before they erupt into bigger problems.

Relationship check-ins do not need to follow a specific format. They can be semi-formal (e.g. a conversation with notes over brunch) or more casual (a text chain you update every afternoon). It’s up to you to decide what works for you knowing that the more you talk about your feelings, needs and concerns, the more likely you will be to meet one another’s expectations.

You might start with these three simple prompts:

How are you feeling right now?
How are you feeling in this relationship?
How can I support you at this...

Which one are you?

Jess joined Antony and Carolyn yesterday on Global TV's The Morning Show to talk about a study that looked at commitment and categorized 376 couples into four groups:

1. Conflicted, but passionate
2. Partner-focused
3. Social butterflies
4. Dramatic

Check out the video below for their conversation.

We respond to your questions about sleep orgasms, ruined orgasms, forced orgasms, vaginal taste and more.

What’s really average when it comes to penis size and does it really matter? How do we get over our hang ups around size so that we can all feel confident in our bodies?

Use sex toys to break your routine and add creativity to your bedroom play. Here are 7 ways to up the pleasure ante with nothing but good vibes. 

1. Roll your bullet vibrator teasingly between your lover’s thighs to allow the vibrations to awaken their nerve endings throughout the entire pelvic region.

This can prime their body to experience orgasmic sensations far beyond the genitals...when the times comes. Try out the TangoX for the ultimate pleasure! And if you’re new to sex toys and want to try something a bit more affordable, check out the Romp Beat.

2. Add some water-based lube and sweep the tip of your toy over their F-Spot as you breathe warm air over the area.

If they have a penis, the F-Spot is on the underside where the head meets the shaft. It’s the frenulum that attaches the foreskin and if they’re circumcised, you’ll still find a sensitive notch to play with.

If they have a vulva, play with their fourchette, which is the highly responsive spot where their lips meet...

Lovehoney is having a sale and you can save an extra 10% with code DRJESS10!

The Ignite Love Ring (20 function) is the perfect way to shake up your bedroom repertoire without the pressure to overhaul your entire routine. A vibrating ring (worn at the base of the penis) can enhance sensations, offer firmer erections and allow you to prolong the pleasure for both partners. It’s waterproof, rechargeable and made of stretchy, silky-smooth silicone.

Tips for heightened pleasure:

• Wear it during oral for an over-the-top experience.
• Change positions to allow it to vibrate against your partner’s hottest spots; it they have a clitoris, let them climb on top to add pressure and weight to the vibrations.
• Change it up mid-game; if you’re new to vibrators, play as you normally would and

Here is a sampling of the questions we address:

#1. My partner is able to get and retain a really bangin' erection and can reliably orgasm during any type of penile stimulation (hand jobs, oral, even just putting lube on my body and rubbing himself back and forth on me), but he quickly and consistently loses his erection during penetration. The only time he is able to maintain an erection during PIV sex is in roleplay situations where I'm pretending to be someone other than myself.

Logically I know this is...
