5 Sex Hacks for the Best Sex of Your Life
Luckily, in a day and age where there are life hacks for just about anything, sex falls into that [...]
Lock the door that doesn't lock
If you have the misfortune of having a bedroom door that doesn't lock (and you also have curious children wandering the halls at inopportune times of day), the solution is simple: lock the door anyway.
Wedge a door jam or a door stopper beneath the door on the inside of your bedroom. Test it out a few times to make sure the door won't budge, or that it will at least give you time to scramble for cover. By the way, this only works if your door opens inwards — if it opens into the hall, it might be time to look for a new (locking) door handle.

Sure, lube can live in its original packaging inside the drawer of a bedside table. But if you're tired of fumbling with the bottle in the middle of the night, make things easier on yourself by transferring it to an empty soap dispenser.
Not only will it make lubing up a breeze (just a simple squirt will do the trick), but it will also speed up your wait time — meaning less chance of the mood being ruined by a too-difficult seal.
prevnextEat a pineapple
This old wives' tale may actually have some truth to it; Daytime TV's favorite scrub-wearer, Dr. Mehmet Oz says pineapple can actually make your vagina smell and taste different.
"Everything you eat changes the smell and the taste down there—everything," Dr. Oz said on The Real. He notes that pineapple, per say, isn't better than other healthy fruits and veggies, but it certainly will make a difference in your personal aroma.
Sex therapist Dr. Madeleine Castellanos told Buzzfeed Health that our bodily fluids — sweat, saliva and vaginal secretions — can all be influenced by your diet and lifestyle habits. However, chugging pineapple juice a day before the big night likely won't change things up — it's all about your overall diet.
prevnextKeep your socks on
We admit, it may not be the sexiest look in the world, but ladies, if you're having issues reaching orgasm, try leaving your socks on during sex.
According to The Mirror, women are 30 percent more likely to have an orgasm when their feet are warm. If you've got a really good man, have him take some of that lube we mentioned earlier and give you a sensual foot massage (without the socks, of course). This experience will help you realize that erogenous areas are all over your body.
prevnextGet your partner's mind right
If you're craving that one-on-one time in the middle of the day but you or your partner are stuck at work, try sending a risqué text message.
Sexting doesn't have to be as dirty as it sounds — an innocent message like "so insatiable today" or "I need to have you" gets the job done just as well. You'll both rush through the work day and come home to one another frisky as ever.
Even if you're both home, sending a racy text from the bedroom upstairs will be a surefire way to get you both in the mood ASAP.
