His Mother Must Be So Proud

GiggleSugar — Tue, 01 Apr 2008 15:00:00 -0700

With talents such as backwards walking up stairs, tongue swallowing, and nose-flute playing, this kid has a great future in the Jackass franchise. Hey parents: Maybe letting your kid watch television once in a while is better than leaving him up to his own devices. Just sayin'. . .

Bizarre "Talent"

GiggleSugar — Mon, 23 Jul 2007 11:45:00 -0700

Aside from a career in adult films or as a circus side show act, I'm not really sure where this woman's undulating tongue talent could take her. Oh, wait. There's the internet. Duh. How could I forget?

Group Therapy: too much tongue?

Mon, 02 Apr 2007 03:00:00 -0700

Dear Sugar -
I have a HUGE problem. My friends set me up with this guy, and I am starting to really like him! He is really nice, he has a great personality and is a perfect gentleman. We hung out a few times and there was mutual attraction, but I could definitely tell he was nervous around me. I talked to him frequently and we became close. A few weeks went on and we hadn't kissed or anything. Finally I decided I had to do something to make the first move, so I asked him to give me a "goodnight kiss"....
Before I knew it he was slobbering all over my face, there was wayyyyy too much tongue! I almost gagged! I'm more of a "sweet and slow" person, but this kiss was porn-star worthy! The kiss really creeped me out, and I'm a little turned off by it! I could never tell him he is a bad kisser, grrr, and I don't know what to do! Help PLEASE!

5 Gays Talk Project Runway Fall, at Least One Blames Women

TresSugar — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 13:00:46 -0800

From moving to the West Coast, to the influx of celebrity judges, to casting drama over talent, five gay men have offered their theories on why viewership of Project Runway fell 25 percent between the premiere of season six and its ninth episode. One faults having three female finalists (though that happened on Bravo's final season too) saying:

"I am all for diversity and playing to your audience’s demographic, but please. And not to sound completely misogynistic, but three women as finalists? No fags? Really? These women were probably the most talented, but obviously when you tell the Bunim/Murray casting juggernaut, 'This is Lifetime: Television for Women, not talented gay male fashion designers,' you get what you get!"

While he jests (mostly), women probably miss the Christian Sirianos who sharpen their tongues before even threading a needle each morning just as much as gay men do. But what do I know? I only watched the first three episodes.

Are You Into Piercings?

DearSugar — Mon, 17 Sep 2007 11:00:00 -0700

A little while back, I asked you "Are You Into Tattoos" and I got a great response, so that got me thinking about other things people do to accent and decorate their bodies - piercings.

It astounds me just how many different places people can get pierced. I'm cool with your basic pierce, like ones on your ear lobe, nose, eyebrow or bellybutton, but the more creative ones, like on your lip, tongue, neck, or below the belt make me a little uncomfortable, to be honest. When I see them I ask myself "How do they eat with that thing?" or "How much did that hurt!?"

So what about you? Are you attracted to people with piercings? Do they turn you off? Are you okay with certain piercings but not okay with others? What I want to know is, when it comes to people you date, are you into piercings?

Très Bizarre: Rammstein Box Set, Now With Bonus Dildos!

TresSugar — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 01:00:00 -0700

Did I mention that the dildos are purportedly molded from each band member's well . . . member?

I love the over-the-top German industrial metal band Rammstein the way I love over-the-top band Abba - with a serious dose of irony. You can never tell if their shtick is for real or tongue-in-cheek, but either way, I like to dork out to them on my way to work.

Well, it turns out that their new box set Liebe Ist Für Alle Da comes with a metal case filled with handcuffs, lube and six pink dildos that are supposed to "reflect the sizes of the six members’ wienerwursts" as Daily Swarm put it. Ha! I guess this is one way of getting close to the musicians you love! Is this better than a personally autographed photo?

Animals With Their Tongues Out!

GiggleSugar — Sun, 16 Nov 2008 02:00:00 -0800

Almost everything about animals is cute, but a special place in the pantheon of cute belongs to their tongues. So without further ado, a silly walk through cute pics of animals with their tongues out! (I know, it's serious high-brow stuff, people!) Source

Hump Day: I'm Self-Conscious About Receiving Oral Sex

TresSugar — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 06:00:00 -0700

Welcome to Hump Day, TrèsSugar's sex advice column. Are you confused about sex? Do you have trouble having an orgasm? Is there something you'd like to try but you're worried it's too weird? Send your questions to TrèsSugar, and our friend Dr. Charlie Glickman from Good Vibrations will offer his sound advice!

Today's Question:

"I'm very self-conscious about my body, and that extends to receiving oral sex. I like to give blow jobs to my boyfriend, but I worry about smelling and tasting good so I rarely let him reciprocate. I wonder if I never get satisfaction when I let him go downtown (he has to practically beg!) because I can't relax enough to enjoy it. Any advice?"

To hear what Dr. Glickman has to say, read more

First off, the vagina is self-cleaning, as long as it's healthy. I mention that because I want to make sure that it's very clear that all of the myths about the vagina being dirty have more to do with sexism and sex-negativity than anything else. That was a bit different in the past, when women's medical needs weren't really addressed and things like yeast infections and bacterial vaginosis went untreated. At the same time, if you ever suspect that your scent has changed, that can be a sign of these or other conditions and it's worth getting checked out by a medical professional.

But assuming that there isn't anything like that going on for you, you definitely have my sympathies. Worries about our bodies and how our partners perceive us is a serious mood-killer. And the irony is that our partners often either don't mind or actively admire exactly those parts of our bodies that we're worrying about!

From what you've written, it sounds like your boyfriend has no problem going down on you. After all, if he's begging for it, it's probably something that he's into. How does he describe your scent or taste? If he's just as enthusiastic about that, maybe that can help you reframe how you feel about it. As the saying goes, we each have our own tastes (sorry for the bad pun, but I couldn't resist).

Try taking a shower before having sex. If you do it together, then it becomes part of the warm-up instead of a chore. While it may not be strictly necessary, if it helps you relax, there's no reason not to. Just don't overdo it with the soap. The vulva (the exterior female sex organs) is covered with sensitive skin and some women find that washing too much can be irritating. And don't get soap inside the vagina - it can be irritating or even set off a yeast infection if you're sensitive.

It might also help if the two of you approach oral sex as a pleasure in itself, rather than worrying about whether you'll have an orgasm from it. Set the bar a little lower for a while and aim for discovering ways that it can feel good for you, even if you don't have an orgasm. Make it a science experiment and have him try different techniques so you can discover how they feel. One great way to do that is for him to do two different things, such as sucking your clitoris or making circles with his tongue for a little bit. Then you decide whether you liked A or B more. It's a fun way to explore new sensations and keep your focus on what you're feeling, rather than worrying about your scent. If he needs some ideas for things to try, Tristan Taormino's Expert Guide to Oral Sex is a great DVD on the topic. Or check out Violet Blue's book Ultimate Guide To Cunnilingus for a fun read.

It could also be helpful if you ask your boyfriend for some positive reinforcement afterwards. After all, you're moving into an edge of your comfort zone and you deserve some hugs for that. When you're ready to move on from the oral experimentation, you'll probably feel better about it if he tells you how much he enjoyed it and that he's glad that the two of you are trying it out. If he goes too far and starts seeming pushy about it, that could backfire, so a light touch is better. But that's a really good way to make sure that you end on a positive note.

I hope that this helps. I know that it can be really hard when exploring out things that feel uncomfortable. It's a good idea to stretch enough to give it a serious try without going so far that it's too much. Take it slowly and remember - you want it to be fun!

Pole Got Your Tongue?

GiggleSugar — Wed, 06 Dec 2006 12:30:00 -0800

Whether you choose to be naughty or nice, the OfficeMax website offers a variety of different ways to interact with this poor fellow. For a tongue twisting good time, select "test his skills" and dare him to say, "Sally sells seashells by the seashore." He may be uncomfortably stuck to a pole, but you'll find yourself rolling on the floor in laughter- it's downwight hilawious.

Très Bizarre: Bagel Face Body Modification

TresSugar — Tue, 07 Jul 2009 11:15:00 -0700

Would you like a lox schmear with that bagel in your forehead?

Club kids in Japan are kicking extreme body modification up a notch by having lumps and bumps injected into their foreheads (and other body parts) via saline inflations or injections of saline into bags that are inserted under the skin. These self-inflicted deformations (like the bagel face saline implantations above) look insane, but they can be deflated by the next day. Want to find out about other body modifications? read more.

Extreme body modification isn't new. A search led me to an illuminating list of body modifications, illuminating because they range from the mainstream and mundane to the culturally specific to the OMG they do not do that! You might be surprised, for example, that getting your ears pierced or practicing body building is considered body modification, but technically, that's what those are.

Culturally specific practices of body mods include the old Chinese practice of foot binding or Kayan women with stacked neck rings. And then there are modern body modifications I'd rather not think too much about: scrotal implants, eyeball tattooing, tongue-splitting, and the baffling practice of trepanation, or drilling a hole into the skull.

We live in a world where people have plastic surgery to conform to certain ideals of beauty, so even though I would never have a saline inflation put in my forehead to look like I have a bagel in it (and I would probably gasp if I saw someone who did), I think there's something interesting about body modifications to debeautify or to look nonhuman (like the horns or wings you can get through plastic surgery to look like devils or angels).

Is all this too freaky for you, or do you think it's cool?
