Cosmo's 44 Most Ridiculous Sex Tips

Contributor: Errant Venture Errant Venture
Jezebel.com has rounded up the 44 most ridiculous sex tips offered up by the magazine, Cosmo (thus the title of this thread!), which can be read here (link) for your pleasure!

Here's some of my favourites.

8. "Chew a small piece of mango... then take him in your mouth. You can use whatever fruit you have, just don't try anything too acidic, as it can burn him."
Non-acidic fruit won't burn... but it will probably feel just as weird and pulpy as it sounds.

10. "As you're going down on him, shake your head from side to side, letting your tongue follow the same pattern on the extra sensitive underside of his penis."
Huh?

11. "As you move your mouth up and down his shaft, rotate your hand in a corkscrew motion while spiraling your tongue in the opposite direction."
And remember ladies, never forget to smile!

15. "Dip your breasts in edible body paint, and use them to 'sponge paint' his entire body. Then lick it off."
How big a bucket of edible body paint would you need to dip your breasts in it? And what sort of weirdly dexterous breasts allow for painting? Doesn't this just involve lunging at him like a brightly-colored walrus?

22. "Mix one tablespoon of saliva (the kind deep in your throat works best - its viscosity makes it a good substitute for lube) with one tablespoon of water to stretch the spit."
They don't really explain if you're supposed to whisk it together in a bowl in the kitchen, or if you should just hock a loogie onto his pre-moistened junk, but I trust your judgment.

27. [When you've got an annoying roommate] "Rent a horror movie and play it while you have sex. If they hear any screams, they'll assume it's the movie."
This will also create a relaxed ambiance.

Umm, #10 isn't really that ridiculous, I do something similar to my husband all the time, but I prefer slow rhythmic left/right moves instead of shaking my head.

Same here, I do it pretty fast though, because it makes him REALLY sensitive!

I do #11 (but I didn't get it from Cosmo), so that doesn't seem so ridiculous.

Reading on, I am rather grossed out by #26, which suggests using an electric toothbrush or phone as a vibe. Do the people who write this stuff realize the types of germs that are often present on toothbrushes and phones? You don't want those germs near your delicate girl parts.

For those who missed it, there was forum discussion where members shared the most ridiculous Cosmo tips they had seen. Click here.

Exactly. How hard is it to buy a real vibrator? If you're, like, 14, I can see using a toothbrush (as long as no one else uses the handle, bleh) but adult women can [italic]BUY] healthy, well made, hygienic sex toys. Why improvise?

Mix your spit with... some water? Uh, what's wrong with spit? Or just lube, if you're a little dehydrated?

#11 works quite well. I do it all the time.

wow ok so here is my thoughts on those.

8. Screw the fruit...try pop rocks...really!

10. Wouldn't it be more effective just to flick your tongue on the underside rather than shake your head and make him wonder if you seizing?

11. So a carnival ride that will give him rub burn. NICE!

15. I would need gallon buckets...That is a lot of edible paint!

22. Or why not use lube? I mean they just had us spend a hundred dollars or more on flippin body paint.

27. So first your an adult but feel the need that you are having sex from a roomate that is more than likely having sex as well? And then secondly would this be considered a fetish??

4. WTF?? Even as a completely inexperienced and half-educated virgin, I knew to NEVER try to push the cock into his body! I wonder if Cosmo ever got sued because some stupid twat actually did it and caused damage?

6. 34% of men want oral as soon as they walk in the door ... I don't think the local high school would approve of that happening in their classrooms. (Because they obviously polled teenage boys.)

9. Or ... have iced water and hot tea next to the bed.

12. Tickle his feet with your nipples ... ? Did this involve a drinking game at their offices?

(more later, I have to run)

I have yet to find (after MANY years of reading it for FUN only) any USEFUL advice on romance or sex in Cosmo. 99% is just humor and the rest is nutty fluff.

And this is where I get all TMI on you guys.

There isn't any more or less pressure or grip involved than if you were just going for it.

You stroke the shaft just like you normally would but left hand is on the bottom and the right hand is on the top. The left hand makes an up and down motion, the right hand makes a twisting motion around the head. The only way I've been able to pull this off is to keep my mouth as close to the penis as I can and just kind of um...for lack of a better word...drool over it. (Jesus, my face is red right now!) This keeps a constant supply of moisture and prevents irritation. It's one of my moves that gets him off within just a few minutes.

Think of it as rubbing your belly and patting your head...but on a penis and with saliva. (Lube works too, but it gets sticky.)

And I don't mean spit...that's just so not cool. (I hate it when I see it in porn and I'd never do it to someone I was being intimate with.)

Normally Partner likes me to grip tight..if I gripped tight and turned my hands in opposite directions I am sure that would not feel good....maybe in the shower using steady water flow. I have done that before.

Here comes more TMI. My mouth and tongue are constantly working up and down his shaft, so there are no issues with lack of moisture.

Yep, I left that part out. It's the best orgasm I've ever given him, but he ends up entirely spent afterwards so I don't do it too often.

I'm with Errant Venture, I saw #10 in an adult movie recently, and in my review I summed it up this way:

…her oral technique brings to mind an enraged Mini-Pinscher with a piece of sausage…

I think my husband would forbid me from touching it if I abused him in such a manner.

Yeah, number 11 is how I injured my neck two nights ago! I spent all day yesterday not being able to move my head very well. It was very stiff and I felt like I had whip lash. So, don't go to town too much ladies and gents!

I wouldn't be able to eat the amount of edible body paint I would need to cover my breast. And wouldn't you just look ridiculous doing that? I wouldn't think it would be to sexy. Hilarious, yes, but sexy, NO!

When last I left ... the plot sickens ...

15. I do agree on the ridiculousness on the edible body paint with boobs as the brush ... Wasn't this in one of those sad sex comedies?

17. Who da feck cooks topless?? Haven't they noticed all the splatters and stuff on the front of their shirt afterwards?? I wouldn't suggest frying that night, either, but you never know. Go ahead, I dare you to bread your nipples. (Bet these junior-high-girls never tested their own suggestions.)

18. O_o Seriously ... even folks I knew in OA weren't that bad about mixing food and sex.

22. The saliva that's deep in the throat is the stuff that drains from your sinuses. Just the thing you wanna tell someone: "Honey, I magically lost my salivary gland usage, so here's some liquid snot instead." Use lube, amateurs.

NOTE: Seriously, I'm beginning to suspect they just record everything they hear in a 7th grade girls' bathroom.

24. Peppermint oil, for realz?? They've never worked with the stuff. I wonder how much they were sued for?

25. On the same note - don't do this with cinnamon oil, that's worse than the peppermint. (Although I found the combination of cinnamon and vanilla scents work much better. As a hair rinse.)

28. Wait, people actually pay attention to movies while they're getting it on? What are they doing wrong in which the other person is watching a damn movie??

29. Dig around in his pocket so he gets a hard-on, then hit him with a particularly stupid pick up line. I wonder which junior high bathroom they heard this one in?

31. Massage his ass through his back pocket = completely hidden ass-grab. Only if you're blind, dumb, and facing the other direction ... in another country.

34. Send an X-rated solo-action voice mail to him at work. I nearly squirted tea out of my nose at that one. I wonder what's it like in their funny little brains ...

37. Beer and egg white facial ... oh my god ... please tell me a drinking game was involved with this little gem!!!

38-42. I see they graduated to the high school girls' bathroom for these bits of "OMG-HEZ-CHEETING" wisdom.

44. Clasping the hands in prayer position. Isn't that a mainstay of historical-period romance novels? It's like, a surefire way to get pregnant in them or something.

Thank you, folks, have a good night! I'll be here all week!
