Want to get yourself a sex toy but aren't sure where to start? Lovehoney's Resident Sexologist Cam Fraser shares his shortlist of the very best ones on offer.

What are the benefits of investing in and upgrading male solo play? Is it less of a stigma if a partner is involved? And, does the massively outdated idea of male sex toys consisting solely of plastic blow-up blondes with gaping, ruby red lips need to be challenged and deflated for good?
This week, Sammi and Vicky are joined by journalist and broadcaster Andy Jones, and they share their thoughts on the stigma that surrounds male sex toys. And of course, we cover our usual segments "You can never know enough about sex" and "Question of the week" where we share what we've learned about sex this week, and answer your sex questions.

Cam is back to give us some insight into how to help our male partners open with us sexually.
One of the joys of sharing a house is that you can almost guarantee that at some point, you’ll hear your housemates bumping uglies. It’s like a university rite of passage.
