+ Squirting has a weird recent history of shame because scientists aren’t good at paying attention to women’s physical responses. What is it? Where does it (and the way people think about it) come from? At Fusion, Charlotte Shane has an awesome comprehensive look at the history of squirting:
“For a generation weaned on internet porn, inundated by sex advice, and adept at online search engines, “squirting” entered the mainstream years ago. But part of what makes it so visible are the petty controversies surrounding it. The public conversation is preoccupied with determining whether or not it’s “real,” meaning whether or not the resulting fluid is pee, and if the G spot (often used as an outdated term for the female prostate, the organ that yields ejaculate) even exists. Some disagreements are legitimate, stemming from lack of adequate research and disputes about methodology, but much is driven by sexist ideology instead of sincere curiosity. Consequently, plenty of ejaculating cis women remain confused and ashamed about their bodies’ responses, even holding back on orgasm altogether because they’re embarrassed by the outcome.”
+ The ultimate crowdsourced map of long-distance relationships from over 600 respondents is wild. One relationship has lasted over 44 years, while lots of others also span decades; work was the most common reason for being apart, though visas (especially pesky US ones) were also often listed; long distance can be under 50 miles or over 10,000; and more.
+ At the Rumpus, Jera Brown writes about the shared explorations of kink and literary essays, noting:
“I’ve become kinkier and more devoted to non-monogamy in both my spiritual life and my romantic pursuits as I explore them both in real life and on the page. But I’m wary of attempting to put together another algorithm for the exact relationship between what I write and how I live. That’s a trap. It’s mysterious and deep, and I’d like to be content with exploring it without resolving it.”
And:
“Kink simultaneously feels like practice and the real thing. During a scene, I’m truly pursuing intimacy. When a partner chokes me, I’m risking something real in both my body and my heart. But I’m also practicing various skills and strategies and roles: consent, technique, receiving and dissecting pain. It’s an environment of play, but serious play.”

+ At the Lingerie Addict, Alexis has some lingerie tips and suggestions for trans women, including types and cuts of bras that look cute regardless of your breast size, bottoms that offer coverage and stretchy fabric for compression, and more.
+ “Sex is just a way to talk about other things.” At Dazed, Larissa Pham, Arabelle Sicardi, Amy Rose Spiegel and Ashley Reese discuss sex, writing about sex, identity and more.

+ Today, June 19, the Pleasure Chest (a queer-friendly feminist sex shop and Autostraddle affiliate) will be donating 10% of its sales from its five locations and online store on to the Orlando GLBT Center. If you’re in the market, here are some sex toy suggestions.

+ How do lesbians lose their virginity? “‘A lot of queer folks feel they lost their virginity the first time they had an orgasm with a partner,’ says Blank. ‘It wasn’t about what acts or even what genders were involved. It’s as valid a definition as any other.'”
