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.

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.”

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.

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.

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.

Want to learn a new language without being threatened by the Duolingo owl? Learn which of the five love languages is yours! And, learn the language of who who you love. Oh God, the owl is right behind us, isn’t he?

The 5 Love Languages come from the book The 5 Love Languages: The Secret to Love That Lasts by Gary Chapman. This isn’t a scientific measurement – Chapman is a pastor, not a psychologist. But they can be a helpful framework for you and your partner to communicate your needs in a relationship.

It’s certainly more helpful than taking that “Which Sex and the City character are you?” quiz again. We keep getting a Manolo Blahnik?

Loud and wild sex is fun, but sometimes you want – or need – to have quiet sex. Maybe your in-laws insisted on staying over. Maybe you don’t want to wake up your dog who will want to be let outside immediately. Or get a knock on the door from your kids.

So, that’s where these films come in. If you grew up in the 90s, the sex scenes from these movies might have helped awaken your sexuality. Or continued where David Bowie and his pants left off.

You may use your sex toys for dirty deeds, but cleaning and caring for them is important. If you’re putting a toy inside you, you want it to be washed, sanitized, fluffed, and folded.
