21 Women Share: What Boosted My Sex Drive

1-"The Magic Bullet—the sex toy, not the blender. It always helps get me off, and bringing it into my bedroom jam made me more excited for sex in general."—Melissa F.

2-"Four words, one man: Tony Goldwyn on Scandal. No coincidence that soon after I became obsessed with the show, I also got pregnant." — Nicole B.

3-"Working out and getting fit always makes a big difference. The better I feel about myself, and the more endorphins in the mix, the more sex I want." —Madeline F.

4-"Swimming together! You're basically naked and slithering around in the water...it's as close as you can come to doing it while still being in public. Much has been said about vacation sex, but the hottest thing you can do on vacay is hop in the hotel pool."—Rachel T.

5-"The little, simple things: Crisp, clean linens and shaved legs. Preferably simultaneously." —Jo D.

6-"The old standby: Baby oil as lube."— Elizabeth R.

7-"Online porn! It’s not just for guys."—Larissa K.

8-"Going off the pill. I think being on the pill killed my sex drive a bit but when I went off it I was raring to go again."—Lisa V.

9-"Sound clips are an underutilized sexting format! I highly recommend adding them to the mix."—Bea L.

10-"My boyfriend has always enjoyed serenading me with his ukulele (which is cute!), but one day he was, like, 'Oh by the way, did you know that I play the electric guitar?' Um, no! Where has that been all my life? Done and DONE." — Missy J.

11-“Yoga boosted my sex drive. Getting all sweaty next to a really handsome man in class was surprisingly a turn on. All that breathing and stretching and accidentally bumping them added a sexual charge to the experience that I'd been missing. Especially when I'm not seeing anyone, getting all physical with a bunch of strangers reminds me that I do actually have blood pumping through my veins.” —Nicola D.

12-“David Beckham's half naked boxer brief H&M ad. The one with him running after a car. His abs, his butt...I still touch myself after I watch it. Available on YouTube!”—Nina C.

13-“Like any normal woman, chocolate gets me going — and so do strawberries. If I have a combo of the two, I will not leave my bed for the next 3 days.”—Lily S.

14-“A couple years ago, I switched my birth control to one with a super high concentration of androgen (synthetic testosterone). My back broke out like crazy, but I wanted to have sex pretty much every second of the day...which was a bit counterintuitive because who wants to get busy with someone who has bacne? I eventually switched back because the breakouts were so bad...but the change to my sex drive was pretty incredible.”—Kara V.

15-“Taking pics of yourself naked just to have on file and to discover what angles and positions like yourself in. But that’s just me.” — Lila A.

16-"Celebrity movie porn: Bryan Greenberg in Prime, Oliver Martinez in Unfaithful, Ryan Gosling in The Notebook, and Ryan Phillippe in Cruel Intentions."—Leah T.

17-"Sexting."—Valerie R.

18-"Smart people/sexy authors like Steven Johnson and David Baldacci."—Brooke J.

19-“So cheesy...but take me to a Broadway show or put on some Frank Sinatra. A man who can sing, dance, and seduce women while doing it gets me going. To this end, Justin Timberlake will also work."— Shawn B.

21-“Cooking dinner with a glass of red wine and some help from a man is a big turn-on. The intimacy of doing that together as opposed to being in a crowded restaurant… it makes it feel like it’s all leading up to great sex.” — Kate S.

If He Doesn't Share His Ice Cream, We Shudder at His Outlook on Oral Sex

Would you date a guy who refused to let you take a bite of his dessert? I wouldn't.

ICYMI: At last week's Pacers-Magic game, the jumbotron cam caught a dude, Jake Moran, who refused to give his girlfriend, Georgia Arnett, a bite of his (amazing looking) ice cream. Naturally, the slight gathered a ton of attention, prompting Blue Bell ice cream company to gift Arnett a year's supply so she'll never have to be dissed again—which she says she plans to share with Moran. (Because she's a decent human being.)

The couple appeared on Good Morning America this morning to chat about the incident, with Moran defending his decision to keep his sweet treat to himself.

"I didn't want her to have my ice cream," he said. Okaaaaay...

On the one hand, an ice cream cone is kind of a gross thing to share—imagine if someone just, like, licked your sandwich, then put it back on your plate. But, when you're in a relationship and your tongues have been in each other's mouths—not to mention many other places–there shouldn't be an issue.

Besides, sharing food with your significant other is kind of something you just have to do—and, I would argue, it's something you should want to do, too. While it's annoying to have someone constantly eat off your plate, allowing someone to grab a forkful, or a lick, in this case, is not just an obligation, it can be a sexy way to share something delicious.

As we all learned in elementary school, sharing is caring. When dude refuses to share something yummy with you, it's bit of a red flag: If a guy doesn't share his ice cream, in what other ways is he less than giving?

Check out the video below to see the couple chat about the incident:

Ashley Madekwe and Her <i>Revenge</i> Character Share the Same Name on Purpose

When Ashley's not shutting things down on the tiny screen as Ashley Davenport the social climber, she's blowing up the web with her to-die-for style on the blog: Ring My Bell.

Taking a look at her blog, you will see influence from some of her fashion icons. "I love women that have an ease to the way they dress," says Ashley. "I think Vanessa Paradis and Alexa Chung do that very well." And so do you, Ashley!

"I started my blog as an online diary. I moved to New York for a job and I kind of wanted to keep my pictures all in one place. Also, I just love style blogs and wanted to join in on the fun!" And like many fashion bloggers, the guy in her life is her photographer. Ashley's hubby snaps all the awesome shots she posts on her site.

And when she and her man aren't taking pics for her blog, "I think the best way to keep a relationship hot is to simply try to make time for each other. That's it," she dished.

Her relationship isn't the only place she keeps things hot and stylish. Ashley says that when it comes to her character on Revenge, she has a huge say in what she wears.

"Creating a character is about what they look like. The look speaks volume to the audience. Our costume designer is good at letting me be involved. She brings me a rack of clothes and we go through them together. The styling is ultimately up to me."

As was her character's name: "The show creator wrote her with me in mind and he didn't want to change it."

On what we can expect next from Ashley on Revenge: "You'll get to see more of her. She's been naughty for long enough and it will soon be time for Emily and Ashley to get back together."

Catch Ashley Madekwe on Revenge every Sunday at 9 p.m.
