DID your visions of warming up under the sheets this Christmas fizzle out to a big fat festive nothing?

Well you’re not alone. A sexpert has revealed how, contrary to societal pressure, it’s NORMAL to stop having sex over Christmas.

Nadia Bokody, from Sydney, told news.com.au stress “has a habit of bringing out the worst in us, and it’s usually our intimate relationships that bear the brunt.

“The real deathblow? This often translates to a drop-off in physical intimacy.”

Women are most affected by this – with one Stanford University study looking at over half a million women’s annual sexual activity logs and finding a steep decline in sexual interest around Christmas.

If you’re keen to get things going again, there are some ways to reignite that spark.

Instead of suddenly trying it on in the bedroom tonight, Nadia recommends laying some groundwork first.

She says: “Connective acts like holding hands, extended eye contact and kissing are all linked to decreased cortisol and a boost in the feel-good, calming hormone oxytocin.

“Ironically, the more of these non-sexual activities you participate in, the greater likelihood there is you’ll end up getting it on under the mistletoe after all.

“Because the calmer we feel, the easier it is to become sexually aroused.”

And if things are already a bit strained, try not to snap at your partner when all that forced family time gets a bit much.

Nadia says: “We should also probably cut our partners some slack if they’re not exemplifying Christmas cheer.”

After all, we’re all a rollercoaster of emotions during the last couple of weeks of the year, especially during a Covid-19 Christmas.

Supporting Ukraine Through Purchasing Power: The Initiatives Keeping the Country’s Economy Afloat 0 173

Amidst the Russian invasion, Ukrainian creatives are launching initiatives to keep the country’s economy going by harnessing consumer power. Spend With Ukraine is one such online resource that connects consumers to Ukraine-based businesses across various industries, while the Ukrainian Emergency Art Fund allows for donations to support artists. Co-founder of Spend With Ukraine, Andrey Klen, emphasizes the importance of supporting the Ukrainian economy through purchasing decisions. He states, “Armies win battles, but economies win wars.”

Ukrainian brands are still operating and many are donating a portion of their sales to different needs to support the country. To sustain interest in supporting Ukraine through spending, increasing the visibility of these initiatives is key. As Klen says, “We want it to blow out.” These efforts not only help Ukrainian creatives but also support existing industries and provide a sense of normality in these difficult times.

Ensuring Safety and Consent in the Adult Film Industry: A Vital Discussion 0 258

Alice Trout

One topic that may be of interest to readers in the adult film industry is the topic of workplace safety and consent.

The adult film industry, like any other industry, has a responsibility to ensure the safety and well-being of its workers. This includes providing a safe working environment, protecting workers from physical and emotional harm, and ensuring that all acts are consensual. However, the nature of the adult film industry can make it difficult to ensure that these standards are met. Actors and actresses may feel pressure to perform acts that they are not comfortable with, and there have been instances of abuse and exploitation in the industry.

To address these issues, it is essential for the industry to have clear guidelines and policies in place to protect the rights and safety of workers. This includes providing education and resources for performers, implementing strict consent protocols, and holding producers and directors accountable for ensuring a safe working environment.

Another important aspect of this topic is the importance of consent in adult film. Consent is a crucial aspect of any sexual encounter and must be obtained freely, enthusiastically, and without coercion. In the adult film industry, where performers are engaging in sexual acts on camera, it is especially important that consent is explicitly obtained and respected. This can be achieved through the use of consent forms and communication between performers before and during filming.

By discussing these topics, the industry can work towards creating a safer and more respectful environment for all performers and ensure that the rights and well-being of workers are protected.
