Nowadays, the prices are giving Saint Laurent, but the paychecks are giving Shein. You need your money to go farther, work harder, and…be more. As we head into what seems to be a recession, it can feel impossible to pay your bills, let alone save up for retirement, assuming the world hasn’t descended into Mad Max: Fury Road by then.

That’s why we talked to the experts about how to save money. They gave us tips on how to spend less and ways to save money to build long-term wealth.

What’s the difference between affect and effect, lie and lay, or who and whom? We can’t solve all the world’s mysteries. But what we can tell you is the difference between bisexual and pansexual. These words have close, sometimes overlapping, definitions, so they can easily be confused.

At the end of the day, a label can only be defined by the person using it. If you’re wondering which label is right for you, here’s an overview of some of the differences and similarities of bisexuality and pansexuality.

Everything keeps getting more expensive these days, including dates. A rose by any other price smells as sweet, but who can afford it? Stop going to overpriced restaurants, filling up on the free bread, and pretending to have an emergency so you can leave. Instead, have a fun, flirty, and fiscally responsible date with these cheap date ideas.

Because you don’t need to blow the budget or get banned from your local restaurants to have a romantic night with your boo. That’s more fun as bedroom roleplay, anyway.

Ladies, it’s time to take a climb. In bed, that is. When you’re the woman on top, you’re in charge of everything: the pace, the angle, and the thermostat. Your partner is trapped, so turn it up to 72. Electric bill be damned.

It’s the 21st century, so we don’t need to lie back and think of England anymore – unless you’re fantasizing about Prince Harry. Turns out, women do like having sex now that they can pick their partners. And since deodorant has been invented.

So if you’re ready to dominate your sex life, try out these woman on top sex positions. We break down all the best ones for you here.

Eye contact is all well and good, but sometimes you wanna do it like they do on the Discovery Channel. According to SKYN’s 2021 Intimacy Survey of Gen Z and Millenials, doggy style is the most popular sex position. There’s a reason most mammals are doing the dirty this way.

We love this position because:

• The wide legged stance is perfect for deep penetration.

• It’s the best angle to hit the g-spot.

• The domination of being taken from behind can be thrilling.

• The penetrator’s hands are free for touching, tickling, and teasing.

• You can keep cool once the doggy style days of summer hit and your AC is broken. Missionary is fun and intimate, but not when your sweat turns you into a slip and slide.

So if you ain’t nothing but a mammal, try out these doggy style sex positions that will have you begging for more.

Texting was an innovation of sexy communication. Remember trying to talk to your crush on the house phone, in fear that your mom will pick up the line? Now you can privately send sexy texts to your crush or partner anytime, anywhere–as long as you don’t accidentally text your mom instead.

But texting about sex can still feel awkward, and in the moment, it’s hard to think of sexy things to say.

So we compiled this list of hot things to text your partner. You can still reread them 100x, show them to your bestie, and edit a final copy before sending.

We’ve been saving up for the Dyson Airwrap, but we may have to blow the budget on an even sexier device. Suction vibrators are the latest innovation in sex toy technology, and they’re giving us a way more exciting blow out.

These clit stimulators are better time savers too. You’ll be on your third orgasm before your Teams status turns yellow. We love a good work hack!

So, we asked the sex experts for their favorite clit sucking vibrators. After this list, you’ll be too distracted to spend $600 on a hair curler.

Time to dust off the cowgirl boots you bought when you were a bridesmaid for a 2010 barn themed wedding. We’re taking a wild ride to the reverse cowgirl sex position.

Those who are preferential to a rear view know that reverse cowgirl is the best position to enjoy a booty-ful performance. It puts your backside on display, so even if you feel like your wagon is draggin’, you look like Megan Thee Stallion. Here’s how to make the most of the reverse cowgirl ride.

We don’t always recommend hopping on the latest TikTok trend, since we don’t want you to go to the hospital for milk crate climbing injuries. But trying out a trendy sex toy to give a Rose Vibrator review is a risk we’re willing to take.

The possibly Bachelorette-inspired toy went viral on TikTok with tons of raving, minute-long reviews. Apparently that’s more than enough time for a recap, since many users reported orgasming within 30 seconds.

But does the Rose Vibrator live up to the hype? For the good of clits across America, we decided to find out.

No, this has nothing to do with one-legged pirates. Pegging is an intimate act that involves anally penetrating a partner with a dildo. Yeah, we’re getting right into it. The details, that is!

It’s gained more attention in the media recently, with Abby pegging her neighbor/crush Jeremy in Broad City and Vanessa pegging Wade to celebrate International Women’s Day in Deadpool.

And if the blind items are to be believed, even Prince William might have gotten a scepter in his throne. After that rumor started, Pornhub searches for the term went up 318% in the UK.

So, to help you or your partner get the same royal treatment, here’s our complete guide to pegging.

Who says having a stick up your butt is a bad thing? As long as the stick has a flared base and is made with body-safe materials, we say go for it.

Butt plugs are a fun and safe way to explore anal stimulation for all genders. But, since it’s not like you can try one on in the store to see if it fits, why we asked sex experts their recommendations for the best butt plugs so you can plug and play. And they’re all more comfortable than an actual stick!

If you like giving head, blowjobs are great. If you don’t, flavored condoms come in many fruity, fun options and are one way to make sucking the lollipop a sweeter treat.

But are these condoms flavors better than the generic “lightly salted?” We’re so glad you asked!

We taste tested and reviewed the most popular flavored condom brands to find out which will have you coming back for more, and which make you say “maybe we should just watch Netflix and chill.”

Ever since we drew Fall Out Boy lyrics on each other with Sharpie markers we’ve wanted to experiment with temporary tattoos. But every time the markers stained our Juicy sweatsuits we wished there was a better way. Now there is, with Ephemeral semi-permanent tattoos.

These are real tattoos that are made to fade. And unlike the Sharpie art, they won’t lead to a lecture from your mom about ink poisoning.

Ephemeral created a special kind of tattoo ink that is used like regular tattoo ink but is designed to fade over time. That means you can finally try out that tattoo you’ve been dying to get but aren’t sure if you’ll regret.

Too bad it wasn’t invented before the tramp stamp craze.

Did you grow up having open conversations with your parents about masturbating and the clitoris? Or do you still laugh whenever someone says “erect?” Although the sex talk is super cringy to think about, not having it can lead to some even cringier moments as an adult.

And that’s exactly what the documentary “A Sexplanation” tries to tackle.

In the documentary, Alex Liu, a freelance science reporter, investigates how we talk about sex and why so many of us are afraid to talk about it. Growing up as a gay Asian man, he says he felt shame and confusion about his sexual desires and was afraid to talk to his parents about his feelings.

Through the film, he interviews experts to find out why talking about physical intimacy still makes us want to hide under our Spice Girls comforter. So why are we all so embarrassed to talk about sex?

In the aftermath of the overturning of Roe v. Wade, abortion laws across the country are rapidly changing. It’s estimated that abortion will end up being banned or severely restricted in about half of US states.

This is not the law offices of Let’s, Eat, and Cake, so we can’t provide any legal advice about your specific situation. If you have questions about the abortion laws in your state, contact the Repro Legal Helpline. And, check Abortion Finder’s state-by-state guide for the latest information about your state’s abortion laws and to keep an eye on how this dumpster fire of a situation evolves.

But, if you’re in a state where abortion is now banned or severely restricted, we do want you to know you still have options if you want or need to get an abortion. Here’s how.

If you’re into kink or are dating using apps like Feeld of FetLife, you may have come across an alphabet soup of acronyms and BDSM terms you don’t recognize.

That’s because the kink community developed its own language to help like-minded people find each other. Which is great for the existing community… not so much for everyone who just realized they like getting tied up.

So, here’s your guide to common kink and BDSM terms so you can find the perfect mouth for your ball gag.

Bourbon and whiskey are great for winter, but when the weather is warm, it’s time to start pouring the rum. Whether you’re making coconut rum cocktails that make you feel like you are on a beach instead of inside your tiny apartment or just enjoying it neat, here are some rum brands to try this summer.

It’s worth noting that these are not necessarily the “best” rums out there, but they are ones we think you’ll enjoy. Either way, they’ll probably make you more fun at parties. So, sit down, make yourself a Dark and Stormy and peruse the list.

As you may have heard from the worst people on Twitter, pronouns and gender identity are a hot topic. Despite @TylerDurden42069’s thoughtful discourse on the topic, using the correct gender pronouns for someone isn’t difficult, scary, or the end of gender.

If you went to elementary school with dial up Internet, you likely learned that pronouns were either she/her or he/him, and groups got the pronouns of they/them. But just as our technology (and our skin care routine) has evolved, so has our language.

According to the Pew Research Center, 26% of American adults know someone who goes by gender neutral pronouns. Even if you don’t know someone who uses gender neutral pronouns yet, it’s good to prepare for when you make new friends…someday.

Now that 47 states have legalized marijuana in some form, you may be thinking that now is the time to try weed, perhaps for the first time. After all, there are so many ways to use marijuana. From smoking it to enjoying edibles, there’s a whole range of possibilities.

And what are we supposed to do, just say no? Clearly D.A.R.E had some of their facts wrong.

Instead of McGruff the Crime Dog, we’re here to provide you with a beginner’s guide to using marijuana. You may not be the most experienced stoner in the smoke circle, but you don’t have to be the least informed. McGruff, you can have a treat as long as you don’t tell anyone to stop getting high, ok?

Current events probably have you wondering: How did the entire future of our reproductive health end up in the hands of nine unelected people wearing graduation gowns? Strap in, because the history of abortion timeline is a long one for America.

Roe v. Wade was a landmark case for abortion rights in the United States. But if – or when – it’s struck down, we will need to learn from the history of abortion laws to find our next steps in fighting for reproductive rights.
