Veedee vibrator and Chattanooga: Are the 19th century sex toys in Monster real? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The new season of Ryan Murphy’s grim show Monster has landed on Netflix — and, as expected, it’s as salacious as it is gruesome. Having already dramatised the horrific stories of murderers Jeffrey Dahmer, Lyle and Erik Menendez, and Ed Gein, Murphy has turned his attention to his first female ‘monster’: Lizzie Borden.

Here, they take us behind the scenes of a sex toy’s design, testing, and more to reveal the MO behind your O. “We have a dedicated sound box for our engineers to measure intensity levels,” says Elisabeth Neumann, user research manager and sexologist at Lovehoney (where one of their enginee

Scroll your FYP for long enough, and you’re bound to eventually end up on RelationshipAdviceTok. Here, you’ll find all kinds of wisdom — some helpful, some questionable, most completely unsubstantiated. Within this hellscape of advice, there seems to be one dating sin that trumps all others: settling in a relationship. ‘POV: You refused to settle,’ people declare, as they share videos of their partners carrying their bags, travelling across town to bring them late-night snacks, or decorating hot
