How to use a Condom

Hi everyone

Check this video about how to use a condom. It’s very detailed so I think that it’s very easy to remember and practice. But no matter what, make sure to remember the most important thing and that is to check the expiration date on the package. Do not use the condom if it’s expired because it might tear. If you like this video and want more info on how to use condoms  check out other videos that I have posted as well.

Go ahead and be selfish!

“Go ahead and be selfish: May is National Masturbation Month”

Dim the lights, drop some Bon Iver onto the turntable and spend some quality time with yourself. May is National Masturbation Month, so it’s totally cool to take that guided tour of your own pants.

(And why not? Most of us will use that info more than we’ll ever use trigonometry.) The month ends with a Masturbate-a-Thon in San Francisco. “I tell people that it’s like a walk-a-thon, except at the end your feet don’t hurt … unless you masturbate in a very unusual fashion,” sexologist Dr. Carol Queen said.

Masturbation is, for many, the cornerstone to a healthy and good sex life. It isn’t second-best — it can give you the information and awareness you need to enjoy the rest of your sex life. Self love rules!

Researchers Aiming To Prevent HIV

Hi guys I was reading this article very interesting. Researchers at Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University have discovered how the protein that blocks HIV-1 from multiplying in white blood cells is regulated. HIV-1 is the virus that causes AIDS, and the discovery could lead to novel approaches for addressing HIV-1 “in hiding” – namely eliminating reservoirs of HIV-1 that persist in patients undergoing antiretroviral therapy. The study was published in the online edition of the journal Cell Host & Microbe.
