Sales of all kinds of gels, oils, and vibrators have become mainstream. A walk down any pharmacy aisle in the "intimate lifestyle" section (often right by the Band-Aids) reveals extraordinary choices for starting up women's mojos again. Susie says okay, not bad, but why buy all the hype? Vegetable oil and good old fashioned foreplay can be a less expensive way to find the sweet spot again.

[Contains explicit content] From a 2005 show: Susie's mailbag is overflowing with great mail, and this week she's answering a few of the choicest letters. First off: a mom wonders if her newborn son's future sex life will suffer from circumcision. Susie responds that her philosophy is "the less cutting, the better". Then, an empty-nest mom finds sexual and personal fulfillment in bondage, and a newly single man wants to know how long he should wait to start his next relationship. Susie also shares a few casual sex tips for those "on the rebound".

Susie is off but wants you to enjoy an episode from 2011. Today's show is all about joysticks for Jacks and Jills. Susie interviews video gamer and erotic author Shanna Germain, who notes that many gamers are regular people - including plenty of female devotees. Shanna and Susie talk about how sex finds its way into some popular programs and why it is considered a game "reward". And are there queer and bisexually themed games?

On this week's In Bed, Susie remembers the outrageous side of Joani Blank, founder of Good Vibrations, sex educator, and Susie's first "boss" in the sex and publishing business.

Susie is hopping mad! There's a sex evangelist out there spreading the word that some young men don't understand that the “real world” of sex differs from the “porn world” of sex. Really? A New York Times article profiled Cindy Gallop, a business woman whose mission is to re-educate the young. Her website promotes regular people having sex rather than actors, to show the difference between what's made-up in the movies versus what's real. Susie has a lot to say about this.

Susie examines a situation involving a neighbor who gets so fed up that a sex war strategy emerges - and backfires. You won't believe the tactics used on apartment 517.

Susie starts off today's show with a look at the birth-control debate gone wild.Guess where. Yup, it's happening down in Texas, where the state legislators and the governor are destroying birth control and abortion access. Susie says they are not alone in their draconian measures, but the size and disenfranchisement of the affected population is vast. Their puritan ideas on women's health are truly scary.

Susie takes a look at an article called "Times Square Blues" from The Nation magazine. It's a look back at what 42nd Street used to be famous for: lots of XXX movies, live nude revues, and just about anything sexy and dirty that you were willing to pay for.

Next, Susie speaks with comedian Julie Klausner about a very memorable trip to Italy and a crazy experience she had at the Vatican.

Today, Susie talks to an In Bed listener about what it's really like being a first-year medical student and what he's learning about helping patients with sexual issues. "Gideon" agreed to be a part of "Tell Me Your Sex Story", our ongoing series in which Susie usually asks nosy personal questions about what you listeners do under the covers. But here, Gideon and Susie delve into the practice of medicine. What is it like to dissect a penis? How do you tell the difference between S&M and abuse? And are new med students sensitive to LGBT issues?

Move over FEMA, Susie's ready to roll up her sleeves and help out the Gulf Coast. In her very own, Hurricane Relief Special, Susie says when you send your dough, you should look beyond the obvious (and prudish) national organizations. Then, in honor of New Orleans, Susie reads "Essence of Rose" by NOLA writer Poppy Z. Brite. In her mailbag, Susie's gets an earful from very happy, very monogamous couples.

The porn police have raided their own jail cells! That's right; prisoners are losing the privilege of subscribing to adult magazines like Playboy or Hustler. What's all the fuss? asks Susie. Is porn really a problem in correctional institutions? It is in the state of Connecticut, or so they say - a new ban is set to limit porn by not allowing prisoners to receive such photos or magazines. But literary porn in books is still okay. Susie says they've got it all wrong!

There's a segment of the population who call themselves "asexual". Susie's not buying it! She says everyone has sexuality in their DNA. Now, for those who claim "not me", Susie reads from an article about asexual ants, and how they're actually total whores! Although the research into Mycoceourus smithii looked at first like it was a species that could reproduce without sex, it turns out that, when later dissected, the queen ant was covered in sperm.
