Writer? Get Your Articles Featured on GetLusty!

GetLusty For Couples is looking for writers! Our mission? End boring sex for couples. Not just one kind of couple. All kinds of couples. In all shapes, ages (heavily focused on the 24-50 range), colors, genders and identities. We understand the line of sexuality doesn't stop at heterosexual.

Our writers benefit from our extensive network, social media publicity and much more benefits.

What we share? Passion for amazing relationships

We'll talk about a variety of perspectives on monogamy. Even poly. But at the end of the day, GetLusty believes your relationship can be beautiful between you two. Sex doesn't have to get stale or boring after years of love. Communication doesn't have to erode. If you choose to experiment, that's wonderful! But at the end of the day, we're all here to help you love better.

Not hetero? Write for us!

We support gay and straight couples equally. We believe in marriage equality. We support loving long-term relationships. Are you bi-sexual or gay? We want to hear from you! We're looking especially for writers to represent these perspectives. We'd love to feature specific advice that you've learned along the way. Would you like to hear about sex with disability? We're looking to empower those voices, too!

Apply to write for GetLusty for Couples. Fill the form out below!

With love,

Dick & Dildo December

GetLusty readers,

Aw, Naked November is over! How did that month fly by so quickly? Well, we're onto a new month and a new topic. At first we were stumped just what we'd call December. After all, we've had Fifty Shades of Grey September and Orgasm October. You'd think our aliterations would be coming up dry by now. But no, no. We're going for it again in the true GetLusty fashion.

This month... Dick n' Dildo December! Everything related to using your dick. Or dildo. To increase and enhance pleasure. Yes, that means all kinds of pleasure for the dick, vagina and many more erogenous zones. We're upping the ante across Tumblr, Pinterest, Google+, Facebook and Twitter @getlusty. And we're launching a new site this upcoming week (!!!). It will have a lot of great features that you'll see when reviewing our articles! It'll take the place of our Blogspot. But trust us; we think you'll like it even better than before!

Did I mention we're in a huff of debugging? Well, while we're de-bugging our new GetLusty website to ensure it looks more than fabulous, we wanted to include more about the subject near and dear to our hearts. Dicks n' Dildos. So how about it, lusties? When was the last time you've used dildos and dicks to improve your love making? Well, it's about time!

Do you have questions, suggestions or recommendations? Further, do you have businesses or events we should feature, highlight or showcase? Let Erica Grigg, our Chief Lust Officer and Editor, know directly at erica@getlusty.com.

With lots of lusty love,
Erica & Tim

1 Day Left! Win a LELO Tiani™ 2 From SheVibe!



Dear readers,

We love sex toys, as you may have seen. Since it's Thanksgiving week and nearly Christmas, what better time to enjoy sex toys? We thought so, too! Just in time for #SexToyTuesday and #ToyWithMeTuesday.

Why we love SheVibe? Let us count the ways...

#1 Their name. SheVibe? Yes, please!

#2 Their great customer feedback. For example, check out this customers' review, "Sandra, you've been absolutely awesome! I've bought intimate items locally and from several different companies online. I've NEVER had the customer service like you've provided. I will definitely be a return customer!! :) Thank you so much for all for your help." -- T.L.

#3 SheVibe has made the commitment to add only body safe products to the site going forward. This means premium silicone and premium materials only. Above all, they encourage customers to vibe responsibly! According to SheVibe, sex is a healthy expression of life so make it fun and always play safe.

Why is LELO Tiani™ 2 the ultimate couples sex toy?

Let's start off with LELO; it's an awesome sex toy company! They make high quality, well designed sex toys and accessories. The world’s leading designer brand for intimate lifestyle products, LELO was launched in 2003. According to LELO, the company has been famous for transforming the look, feel and function of how personal massagers are perceived, bringing a new level of luxury to products of this kind.

Now about the sex toy itself. The Tiani™ 2 Design Edition is the upgraded version of the Red Dot award-winning couples’ massager, designed for women to wear when making love. LELO’s unique SenseMotion™ technology allows users to control sensations during lovemaking through movements of a remote; while all-new enhancements including the 50% more powerful motor and 3X greater wireless range increase possibilities still further.

Fully waterproof for easy cleaning or use in the bath or shower, Tiani™ 2 can now be controlled with or without the remote and comes with a new full-feeling attachment that offers extra-targeted pleasures, bringing increased stimulation and total control to even the most adventurous positions.

How to use it? More details, including a YouTube video tutorial, here
  • For couples, use it while making love (he or you can have the remote to amp the fun factor as the signal travels up to 48 feet)
  • Use it as a vibrator for masturbation (without penetration)
  • Use it for nipple stimulation

5 Pillars of an Amazing Sexual Relationship



You feel like your missing something in your sexual relationship. Maybe you feel overall your relationship could be better. Why? These 5 things. I've been there. I started GetLusty for Couples because my relationship and sex life with my husband was less-than-stellar. But we worked on these key areas and things got better. While no marriage or couple is perfect, we're always growing, changing and improving--these pillars are absolutely essential to an amazing sexual relationship.

As you may not know, GetLusty for Couples will be launching a new version of our site on December 1st. In just one week's time, I think you'll be very excited to see our new features. Suffice to say, we're passionate about helping nurture relationships and sex. And we're committed to being a relationship improvement service. Erica Grigg, our co-Founder and Chief Lust Officer, reports.

* * *

Based on our extensive personal research, we found 5 ways to make our marriage and sexual lives better. If we kept up these 5 different areas of our relationship, we’d have an amazing sexual relationship. We based the GetLusty for Couples platform on these pillars and needs. In launch, we'll be working to provide couples services to improve their relationships in these areas specifically. We're here to make relationships great--throughout the years. What are these pillars, you ask?


#1 Communication

If you can’t tell your partner how you’re feeling, how are you expecting them to understand you? If you don’t tell them you’re angry, how can you expect them to console you when you need it most? Communication of your feelings, problems and successes is an essential component to an amazing sexual relationship.

#2 Health

If you don't keep up with your own personal hygiene, working out and overall physical health--it's hard to feel sexy for someone else. If you don’t feel sexy, you're far less likely to want to have sex. If you don’t feel healthy, it’s also hard to have high self-esteem. Having a healthy outlook on life is beneficial for both partners. Simply, eating right, exercising regularly and maintaining a good appearance is positive for both individuals and couples.

#3 Sexual technique

If you don’t know the best ways to give head, how do you expect your partner to orgasm? If you aren’t able to orgasm, what are some other ways to achieve pleasure? Sexual technique should be easy to find and accessible. Curious about how to have anal sex? Want to be better at cunninlingus? You’re be a few clicks away!

#4 Dating (for couples)

If you only see each other in passing, how do you expect to retain your lusty love? Having a scheduled weekly or twice-monthly period where you’re simply enjoying each others’ presence is a wonderful experience to share.

You start to equate the times you’re together during dates with your overall experience. And when you’re on a date having fun, it’s easy to have an absolute blast. Isn’t that why you’re in love in the first place? Dating makes your relationship so much more fun.

#5 New experiences/adventures

So maybe you go to the same restaurant, bar or park every time you go on a date. Like all long-term relationships, things get monotonous. However, when you exit your routine, you become surprised again. The mystery and suspense of a dating relationship begins again. It’s hard not to feel the oxytocin flowing again when you jump off a cliff or travel to another city together to do something different.

Voting is Sexy! Do It Today!



Dear GetLusty readers,

Are you an American? Many of our readers come from across the world. But this message is especially for Americans and ex-pats living abroad (cast your absentee ballot).

You matter in this election

Cast your ballot. Your vote matters, and your opinion matters. Whether you're voting based on women's reproductive rights, education, national insurance, climate change (enter Barack Obama and Hurricane Sandy), medicare and social security or a variety of other issues. This election couldn't be any closer this November 6, 2012.

We're going to carve out some time in our busy schedules because voting is a priviledge and a duty that we take seriously. You could be the difference between your candidate winning and another sorry soul. For us, and for many women across the United States, it's Barack Obama. But if you think Romney is best suited to your needs, vote! Check out the Funny or Die video prompting you to vote!



Be heard. Vote today!

With love,

9 Reasons to Sign Up for the New GetLusty


At GetLusty for Couples, we're more than excited about what's next. We've talked briefly about it, but we thought it would be important to talk about what's next in a little more detail.

We're on a mission to end boring sex. As our Chief Lust Officer, Erica Grigg, went to Built in Chicago, a networking event for startups, investors and innovators, recently, she came upon many excited couples.

Naked November is coming!

As Frankenstorm touches down in the Carolina's and New Jersey, we're hoping for safety for those affected. GetLusty readers, we'll do what we can to keep you stocked on resources to improve your relationship through the process at the least. We'll try to intersperse information for our West coast readers, but to be honest, you're likely hearing a lot about these updates anyway. Either way--we care and are really hoping things go as smoothly as possible for residents of those areas. (Luckily, we're in Chicago currently, but we'll get our share of snow soon, I'm sure). 

On to a brighter note. I cannot believe we're almost done with Orgasm October. We had so many fabulous articles that you--our readers--enjoyed. Within the next several days, we'll feature the best of. We certainly won't stop talking about orgasms, but we will be shifting gears slightly.

Can you believe Halloween is damn near over? November is coming! Oh, my. Fall. It's that time of year when you get cuddled up and nude? Wait, did I just say nude? Yes. We're talking about getting naked. That's right. If you haven't seen why we recommend nudity, you're missing out! We've talked about it before. Getting naked is highly enjoyable for many reasons.

It might seem counter-intuitive. You're going to be feasting, you'll be eating like crazy. Sure. But being naked--emotionally and physically--is just as important in November as in the summer.

Some of the things we'll address: why you should be naked sometimes (and not just in the shower). How feeling emotionally naked could improve your relationship (think: vulnerability). And, what are some naked date night ideas? We're not just talking about cranking your heat up in your living space,  we'll also talk about vulnerability and how you can be emotionally naked.

Because as we've heard before, when you're clear with your lover, and you're happy with yourself--that's far more likely to project onto your relationship. So go ahead--get naked! Even if it's just emotionally because you're cold.

Have article ideas? E-mail me directly erica@getlusty.com.

One more thing! Have 2 minutes to spare? Want to help end boring sex and enter to win a VulvaLoveLovely creation? 'Like' us on Facebook!

Why We Love VulvaLoveLovely

In the words of the Founder of VulvaLoveLovely, Jessica Marie:
For a long time I didn’t think about my Vagina, to avoid feeling all of the things that you feel after all of that.

Whenever I thought of my Vagina in any context, I got this sick feeling in the pit of my stomach. I felt dirty, I felt useless, I felt ashamed and I felt used, thrown away, I felt like a piece of garbage. Death, sadness and humiliation all lingered there.

Traditional counseling didn’t work. I couldn’t shake the shame. So I decided to restructure. I took something I hated and turned it into art, art I thought was beautiful.

Slowly, I found it wasn’t the art that was beautiful, it was me. I felt completely liberated. Then I started working with a rape crisis center where I was able to recognize how effectively society tells us that:, we should be ashamed by our Vulvas, to be pretty you have to fit one very unreachable standard and to validate your prettiness you need to have sex with men, even if you’re not interested. That is when I started VLL.

Want to win? 'Like' us on Facebook, and don't forget to 'Like' VulvaLoveLovely, too! On Twitter? 'Follow' us at @GetLusty. Are you subscribed to our daily eNewsletter?

We really appreciate your continued support and really look forward to offering you more, better support to end sex in your relationship.

Tons of love,
Erica Grigg & Tim Watson
