Top Tips For Greener Sex

Want to be greener and do your bit for our planet? There are lots of things we can all do to help out, but I for one had not really thought about green sex, and that's strange because I am a bloke and sex is one of the things we think of most.

In the name of science and the interest of saving the planet I started experimenting... ok it wasn't all selfless. I was compiling a nice article on all the things I found when I discovered this entry from planet green, they have covered it all from showering together (personal favourite) to where to get green sex toys. The article even goes into a little detail on staying healthy, planet green have really out done themselves on this one. So instead of a lengthy article here are the top tips, that way you can spend less time reading and more time with your partner, if you have a little more time check out the article at planet green which goes into more detail.

1. Shower together- saves water and warms things up nicely. Also useful for getting partner to wash those hard to reach areas.
2. Throw out the silk and replace with bamboo – sounds strange but bamboo sheets are silky without being too slippery.
3. Give the juice a little more sweetness – There are many rumours about and this may or may not be true but vegetarians have the best tasting love juices so give the veggie diet a go. If nothing else you will be helping out the planet as we discussed in “save the world, become vegetarian?”
4. Sexy Massage – What can be greener than a massage that doesn't use any resources other than your hands, its cheap especially if you make your own oils and a great way to wind down before getting it up. Here is link to a video to help you start (no its not that kind of video!). And another.
5. Use green sex toys – this is last because it is the obvious one. The things to avoid are chemicals called phthalates, a substance used to soften hard plastics like PVC to provide that jelly feeling. Go with glass, metal, silicone, hard plastics, or elastomers instead.
