Did you know that UBC has a major reputation for sexuality research?

The researchers there are doing a major study on sexual desire in established relationships.  You can help by filling out their online survey form.

Here is the introduction:

Many people in long term (more than 5 years) relationships notice that their sexual desire declines somewhat and they may not crave sexual activity as strongly as they did early in their relationship. Researchers at the University of British Columbia, Canada are very interested in what might predict a decline in sexual desire among men and women in long-term (more than 5 years length) relationships. Participation in this study is greatly needed if we are to establish effective treatments for men and women who are bothered by the decline in their sexual interests. If you have been in a relationship, and living with your partner for at least 5 years, please follow the link to participate in this important research.

Summary

In 1970s New York, it simply didn’t get any hotter than Plato’s Retreat. Founded by impresario Larry Levenson, the infamous heterosexual swingers club opened its doors in 1977 and launched a most unlikely sexual revolution.

Levenson fell into the swinging lifestyle while working at McDonald’s and raising a family. He found his calling selling sex to the suburbs. And soon enough, married couples and singles were commuting from the boroughs to swim, eat, and swing at Plato’s.
