We go together...
like rama-lama-lama-ka-dinga-da-dinga-dong

We all need to constantly remind ourselves that girl s*x is completely different to boy s*x.

For females — we have to be ‘in the mood’ for s*x.

For males — well, you guys just have to ‘be’…

The number of women I talk to in my practice who have little to no interest in s*x is huge. And this, lovers, is a huge problem for a number of reasons:

Firstly
While ma********on is always an option, s*x is something best done in pairs. Our ‘bits’ are helpfully designed to slot into each other. Therefore, a female’s low libido can cause a huge problem for her significant other.

Secondly
A female’s lack of libido is often a symptom of a health condition. Please see a previous article of mine about this: https://lisasaidso.co.nz/benefit-of-healthy-s*x-life-is-normal-good-for-your-health-relax/ #.WYUmQVxmnOV

Thirdly
S*x is good for you. It can help to balance your hormones, improve your relationship with your lover, and lift your mood. It can lower your blood pressure, and it can improve your self esteem. S*x, as many of you will already know, is also a good work-out (it burns quite a few calories, and boosts the metabolism). It also helps you to sleep better, reduces stress, and makes you feel calm.

Therefore, while I’m working with my clients on addressing the underlying cause of their lack of interest in s*x, in the interim, I like to recommend a traditional little aphrodisiac — hard liquor!

Note: The underlying causes of a low libido may include other health conditions such as stress, poor thyroid function, depression, frequent headaches or migraines, and recurring thrush. The side-effects of some medications can also cause a poor s*x drive.

I find it incredibly fascinating that many (many) women are surprisingly unaware of the different effects that different types of alcohol can have on you. They don’t realise that wine — for example — does nothing to enhance their s*x life (regardless of what GOOGLE says about red wine). When we have ‘s*x and alcohol’ talks at OOMPH — we have a right royal, rip-snorting time. It’s like opening up a whole new fantasy world for these women. It really feels like you’re administering hope to them.

From what I’ve seen, us girls are totally down for some ‘liquid libido’. We love the idea of having a little something to help take the pressure off; to make us feel s*xy; to make us feel uninhibited; to make us actually feel like engaging in a bit of Shoo-bop Sha-wadda-wadda Yippity-boom-de-boom…

Wowsers! OOMPH's old HQ sure does shine up real pur-dee! 🤗

Heck, I wish the Landlord had done this for me when I moved into these premises back in 2016!

Oh well...
I certainly hope the new tenants enjoy their fresh floorboards and paintwork, and their new kitchen, bathroom, and staircase...because I'll still be paying toward this upgrade until early next year!!!

Bitter?! Who me?! 😒😇😋

I remember when I wrote my two-part article about Menstrual Cups in 2014 – back in the days when the only brands available in NZ were Moon Cups, and Diva Cups. I was a little worried, that by me promoting what I thought was a 'no-brainer' alternative to tampons and sanitary pads, that my readers would think that I'd turned into a "Raving Hippy".

When I used to work in health food stores (from 2004-2016) very few women knew about them. The stores would always have one or two Menstrual Cups available. However, back then, rather than collect blood...they only served to collect dust.😬

Thankfully, it's been more than a decade since I risked my reputation (😂) and, girl – I'm very glad I did! Nowadays there appears to be more Menstrual Cups available on the market than there are 'fannies' to wear them! 😜

Menstrual Cups are good for your health, the health of the planet, and the health of your wallet.

FYI: My 'cup' lasted over a decade (with proper care).

It's International Women's Day, women of the world!
So, let's talk about a universal medicine for us! 👊

In my practice I frequently encourage my female clients to consider their iodine status for their health!

Why?

Because this marvellous mineral helps with all manner of 'women's problems' e.g thyroid health, heavy periods, PMS & PCOS, uterine fibroids, ovarian pain & cysts, breast pain & cysts, and breast cancer prevention.

As a consequence of my enthusiastic recommendations, I now have quite the band of ‘Violet Femmes’ — women taking high dose (optimal dose!) iodine for their health.

Viva la revolución!

In a nutshell, in NZ there have been four contraceptive revolutions:

1) We went from traditional to barrier methods of contraception around the 1930s

Traditional methods include –
Abstinence
Breastfeeding
The withdrawal method, and
The rhythm method (avoiding in*******se at the presumed fertile time of the cycle

Barrier methods include -
The diaphragm, the cap, the vaginal sponge, spermicides and condoms.

2) We then shifted from barrier methods to hormonal methods with the introduction of oral contraceptive pills in 1961.

FYI: Kiwi chicks were among the first in the world to take advantage of this new method of birth control 👊

3) Then there was a widespread move from hormones to VOLUNTARY (!) sterilisation for female and/or male when families were complete.

Beside obvious social, and economic reasons, women were experiencing side effects on the pill and fears about the safety of the pill.

FYI: New Zealand men became world leaders in the proportion having a vasectomy 👊

4) We started using condoms ... because it wasn't just unwanted pregnancy, and 'hormonal safety' we then feared!

The stimulus for the shift to condoms was the appearance of HIV/AIDS.

FYI: The first case was reported in New Zealand in 1983.

I wonder what will be the fifth revolution?! 😉

New article out very soon – hopefully!
