Going to Glastonbury? POPSUGAR Has All the Festival Sex Tips You Need

Glastonbury 2023 is well underway, and whilst we've picked out our favorite headliners (Hello, Alex Turner!), and chosen our celebrity festival fashion-inspired looks, there is one perhaps inevitable part of festivals you shouldn't forget to also prepare for: sex.

And while there's nothing inherently sexy about fighting over toilet paper, and roughing it in a tent that both manages to be freezing at night, and 60 degrees celsius in the early morning, there's not much else to do before the acts

A New Sex Toy Has Arrived to Take Shower Sessions to the Next Level

Let's face it, we all know how pleasurable a perfectly positioned jet of water can feel on the right location. And with 40% of women recalling that the first time they used the shower to masturbate was before turning 18, as per research conducted by Lovehoney, it's no wonder that the privacy of our bathing routines and sensation of the water hitting our skin are often our first sexual awakening.

So, get your towels at the ready, because things are about to get wet and wild once again during you

There’s a New Festival Coming to the UK, but Only Single People Can Attend

We've all been there: standing at the barrier of a festival for your favourite artist, when a couple standing next to you is making out and claiming that every song is "their song". This somewhat nauseating behaviour is often made worse in the summer months, when we're trying to enjoy our "hot girl summer", and get over that winter coating situationship.

Well, a new festival is coming to town, and it's reserved for single people only. That's right, you can finally be single and ready to mingle

These Introverted Dating Tips Will Help You Take Your Online Situationship IRL

Picture this: you've matched with someone on your dating app of choice, and you begin talking to each other. "The rizz" on their profile is nothing short of impressive, and the conversation flows effortlessly. You speak daily, except no one brings up the pending issue of meeting IRL. So, instead of planning your first date, the spark fizzles out. Eventually, all you're left with is a failed prospective relationship, which means it's time to start swiping again.

We've all been there, but what is

The World's First Skin-Tone Condoms Have Launched — Why Haven't They Been Made Before?

It's 2023, and while we're all aware that sex is for everybody, it seems the sexual wellness space has taken a little longer to get up to speed.

Until now.

"Workout Wooing" Is the Latest Dating Trend, but Would You Try It?

In 2023, it seems there are already hundreds of different dating terms to understand. From "winter coating", when a former flame gets back in touch in the hopes of pulling through the winter together, or the "cost-of-loving" crisis , which has seen couples opting for cheaper dates and even breaking up due to the increased price of having a partner, it's safe to say, the world of dating can be a minefield.

The latest trend to surface? "Workout wooing". Essentially, this means heading to a gym or

As one frustrated commenter explained: “Some man trying to reach the ovaries looking for the G-Spot!”

My best sex ever was with my ex's best friend

It was my on-again, off-again boyfriend who originally introduced me to his best friend Robbie* at the start of our relationship. From the beginning, there was no denying that Robbie was good looking, blessed with a trifecta of tattoos, green eyes and muscles.

Four years later, during which time Robbie and I had become friends, my boyfriend moved across the country and broke the news that he wanted to keep things “casual'' between us. No longer with my ex watching over us, my relationship with

'Camila Cabello is wrong - you can't be friends with an ex without the sex'

You’re breaking up with the partner you’re desperate to cling onto in some way: perhaps you were friends for a while before you started dating, or maybe you went through a lot together during your relationship. But now, the romantic part of your relationship has come to an end.

Isolating With My Friend With Benefits Should Have Been Fun. Covid Had Other Plans

But even the most seasoned and independent nomophobes among us crave the comforting physical touch and presence of another human being at times – and so earlier this month, with the impeding doom of another national lockdown, we jumped at the chance to be together one last time.
