Skinship: the Korean cuddling trend that brings you closer as a couple

It’s everywhere on TikTok: couples who aren’t doing anything spectacular, just sitting close together. A hand on a back. A head resting on a shoulder while watching Netflix. Pure physical closeness, and exactly the kind of intimacy many relationships quietly crave. It’s called skinship, a term that originated in Korea.

Sapiosexual: why brains turn you on more than a sixpack

Someone with an average physique says something so sharp that you don’t hear the rest of the conversation. You’re already three sentences ahead in your mind, somewhere between admiration and something much less innocent. Congratulations, you’re probably a bit sapiosexual; which simply means that someone’s brain turns you on more than his abs. Sounds goody-goody, but isn’t. A good joke can do more than a toned body on the beach. That colleague with the dry sense of humor three desks...

Sex after childbirth: the honest guide

In all honesty: in the first period after giving birth, your mind is probably far from focused on acrobatics between the sheets.

Situationships: the survival guide for the grey zone

You share a Netflix account, know each other’s favorite take away restaurant and the sex is amazing. But when you ask about the status? Eerie silence. Welcome to the world of the situationship.

It’s the ultimate emotional purgatory mode. How do you survive this grey zone without losing your mind (or your heart)? The...

Check your goods: the big MOT down-under

Zodiac signs: who matches who?

Your star sign doesn’t determine whether you are good in bed, but it often does reveal how you get turned on. Whether your body is instantly turned on or needs to be warmed up first. Whether you like to take control, or only truly let loose when you relinquish control. For some desire is all about pace and passion, for others touch, safety or imagination are crucial. Astrology can’t offer any guarantees, but recognition. From Aries to Pisces, here’s how...

Why your phone secretly ruins your sex life

We sleep with it, have breakfast with it and even take it to the bathroom. Our phone is everywhere. Convenient, but also treacherous. Because as great as the device may be, it can slowly but surely kill your sex life. And you probably don’t even notice. Destraction instead of attention A phone seems innocent, but it’s a master of distraction.

The intimate power of eye contact during sex

When it comes to sex, we often talk about positions, toys and techniques. But the most intimate, exciting, and sometimes downright overwhelming sexual experience?
