OC Romance | Is Your Bedroom Ready for Sex Toy Action?

By | Maya Antoinique

Adding a little SIZZLE to your bedroom action can be awkward and rather difficult for couples to discuss. You get used to the same routine and after a while, sex just becomes less exciting. Who wants to have boring sex? NOT ME!! Women are more outspoken on their sexual independence and willingness to explore sex toys and props in the bedroom, but for men, it can sometimes be a sensitive topic. After the break, there are a few tips on bringing sex toys into your bedroom! Read more…

OC Romance | Security, Emotion, and Appeal

By | Lola B. | Sequal to “Are You Irresistible”

First hand, I would like to thank all who instilled the inspiration within me to create my last article “Are You Irresistible”. I had given myself a task to choose something that wasn’t geared towards a spiritual influenced article, but low and behold, the article was composed in a spiritual and influential matter (You can’t fight yourself all of the time, lol). A question that was brought across regarding the last article was my personal opinion based on Irresistibility. I agree heavily with all of the candidates; who I must say gave some thought provoking feedback! Praises aren’t enough for your great minds. To fully answer the question, I believe that Irresistibility is an energy filled power with being connected and in tuned. Now In order for one to be Irresistible you must maintain a certain demeanor. Depending on the prospect willing to engage within you, that demeanor could be numerous of things including sex appeal, gestures, their desires/fantasies, or the art form of security. In all, I believe that “Irresistibility” lies within security, emotion, and appeal. All three entities are the very foundation to build the only persona of which you will be craved. Read more…

OC Romance | Doing TOO Much TOO Soon

By | Ka’Lyn T. Banks

Getting back into the dating game can be stifling especially if you are not sure if you are doing too much too soon. How do you know if you call too much? What constitutes as being clingy or being too emotionally “slutty” early on? These are some of the questions that may run through your mind when you first start dating a new guy. Sometimes we over-think or over analyze situations, which allow us to verbally pour out unsolicited emotions on a guy that has only been around for a few weeks. Here are a few tips that I have tried when dating a new guy that have helped with not being deemed as “Miss Do TOO much” in the long run. Read more…

OC Romance | Scoring Your Summer Fling

Hot and sticky Summer weather brings out hot and sexy romances. Whether you’re spicing up your dating life or just hooking up with someone on vacation, the ever-present “summer fling” might be on most of your minds right now. So how do you snag–and keep–your summer fling through those sultry, steamy evenings? With 7 tips from a male matchmaker, here’s how to find your summer romance.

1. Go Outside:
It sounds obvious, but that’s where the men are: outdoor bars, beaches, golf courses, boardwalks, rooftops, pools, volleyball courts, whatever. So stop worrying about your hair turning frizztastic and get yourself outdoors. Guys flock outside in the summer to enjoy the sun, but also to check out women wearing skimpy clothes, admits Ward. Which brings us to our next point …

2. Dress Summer-Sexy:
“Wear as little as possible that’s still socially acceptable and dignified,” Ward says. Okay, that sounds a bit extreme, but basically: If you’re going to flaunt it, now’s the time — but don’t be skanky. So if you’re at the pool, you better be wearing a sexy bikini … but not a G-string. At a BBQ? A short, flirty summer dress is great, but super-short — and — low-cut screams desperate. Men expect to see some skin during the summer, so show it off a little if you want their attention.
