A recent research review of multiple studies suggests cannabis use probably doesn’t contribute to erectile dysfunction. The researchers said that while a couple of small-scale studies on animals found a potential negative link between cannabis and erectile function, the larger studies on humans often reached the opposite conclusion – that smoking up can actually help get you up. Their conclusion: More in-depth, clinical research is needed to investigate the matter further. Where do we sign up?

Need a new position in the bedroom to turn up the heat? For athletic readers with good balance and strong biceps, we present “The Ultimate Wheelbarrow.” It’ll take a bit of practice, so don’t get discouraged if you’re not very graceful the first time. Have her lie down on her stomach on the edge of the bed, and then push herself up, holding herself up with straight arms and bending her legs at the knees. Position yourself with your knees on the bed between her legs, take hold of her thighs, and lift her legs in the air. If she doesn’t have a lot of upper body strength, by holding up her legs more yourself she’ll support less weight. She also has the option of wrapping her legs around your body.

Being overweight or obese doesn’t just affect your appearance – it’s hazardous to your health and sexuality. Two-thirds of all Americans are considered overweight or obese, which decreases testosterone levels, affects muscle function and heart health, and can also result in lower sperm counts and sperm motility. Overweight men are more likely to suffer from erectile dysfunction, kidney stones and larger prostate glands. Several studies show the association between extra bodyfat and an increased risk of developing prostate cancer. For help losing weight, follow the expert advice in Reps! or MuscleMag International.

Many women will favor the guy who does little things that make her life easier over the dude who buys a dozen long-stem roses. According to Sharon Gilchrest O’Neill, author of A Short Guide to a Happy Marriage, emotional and mental connections through caring gestures are key to the physical connection in a relationship. And this is true in any relationship, not just marriage. Simple actions can work wonders, O’Neill says, such as unloading bags from the car for her after a shopping trip, doing the dishes, sharing time in the morning over a cup of coffee, presenting her with her favorite chocolate bar, and – possibly the toughest one of all – saying sorry when you’ve done something wrong. Most women will take a guy who shows he truly cares over a bunch of flowers any day.

Ever had sleep sex? Apparently, quite a few people have. Researchers at the University Health Network in Toronto, Canada found that sexsomnia – a disorder in which people initiate sexual activity while asleep – is more common than originally thought. In a study of patients at a sleep disorder clinic, 7.6% reported episodes of sexsomnia – 11% among the men and 4% of the women. The patients suffering from sexsomnia show symptoms of fatigue, insomnia and depression, and are twice as likely as patients with other sleep disorders to admit to using illicit drugs. The real question is: How many guys are using sexsomnia as an excuse for those sleepy, half-assed, late-night advances on their girlfriend or wife?
