If you’re one of the hundreds of thousands of fans who went to see — or are going to see — Taylor Swift’s Eras tour, you likely spent a good portion of your paycheque on tickets, accommodations, outfits, and more for a single night of fun. Yes, the concert is […]
Pollen allergies are no joke. Incessant sneezing, itchy eyes and a scratchy throat are just a handful of irritating symptoms that come with hay fever as the seasons change — but allergies can have some pretty adverse effects on your skin, too. If you regularly wake up with a puffy […]
Even as we progress further into being a more sex-positive society, when it comes to porn, we’re often still quite divided. With a history of presenting seemingly non-consensual, violent or unrealistic portrayals of sex (and of women), it’s understandable why we might be wary of incorporating porn into our sex […]
