Sun, Sea, and Zero Shame: Inside SVAKOM's F**k Taboos Getaway
by Trista Wang
Sunshine, ocean breezes, and poolside fun... it’s the ultimate summer vibe.
So when SVAKOM teamed up with KINK (the fabulous LGBTQ+ party crew) to throw the last bash of the season, we knew it had to go big, bold, and gloriously inclusive.
Enter: the F**k Taboo Getaway Edition—a weekend-long escape that smashed stigmas and turned up the heat in the best way possible.
A Weekend to Remember
On September 5th and 6th, 250 guests gathered in the seaside gem of Dapeng for a two-day adventure they won’t soon forget. The only rule? Arrive early to soak up the sun and stay late until the music faded into the stars.
Decked out in our favorite swimsuits (and with sunnies firmly in place), we dove headfirst into a weekend of pure, playful liberation.
The schedule? Stacked. Think games, live performances, and activities for everyone who joined the party. Highlights included an exclusive sunset set by the iconic DJ Socorro Lopez, followed by beats from the wildly talented DJ Mingo. And when our favorite sex coach Nancy Wu took the stage to demo the art of bondage and candle play… let’s just say things got extra steamy when a pair of surprise go-go dancers whisked her into an impromptu show of sensuality and rhythm.
Toys, Games, and a Whole Lotta Splash
Of course, we couldn’t resist adding a little SVAKOM flair. One of the crowd-fave games? A wild underwater treasure hunt—with contestants diving to find our waterproof toys (yes, they really can handle pool parties, showers, and even the sea).
Goodbye Summer: Hello New Adventures
With toys, tunes, games, and gallons of good vibes, this getaway was the perfect send-off for the season.
But don’t worry: we’re already crossing fingers (and toes) to take this show on the road and bring the fun to wherever you are next summer. Stay tuned.
You have gotten out of a long-term relationship. We know, it sucks. You are wondering how long it will be before you find someone else who's really worth it.
Self-pleasure is so often reduced to an outcome — a technique, an orgasm, a box to check. But it can be something far more meaningful: a homecoming to your own body and sensations. In this personal and insightful piece, Sexological Bodyworker Johanna Debes explores why so many women lose touch with their desire, how self-pleasure rebuilds body knowledge and confidence, and why approaching it with curiosity instead of pressure changes everything.
Have you ever found yourself checking your phone repeatedly after sending a message?
Or felt your mood change completely because someone you’re dating took longer than usual to reply?
Going from friends with benefits to a committed relationship isn't usually something you actively seek—or plan for. But it can happen. Not always, and not always in a simple way.
No two women are the same. We all have different tastes, sensitivity levels, fantasies, and even body shapes. Therefore, the key word in sex is always going to be: curiosity.
If you don’t know what “yoni” means, think again. In Sanskrit, “yoni” is often used to refer to the womb, vulva, vagina, or female genital area more broadly.
Most people know the feeling of being “horny,” but many also know what it’s like when that desire just doesn’t show up. Sexual arousal isn’t always automatic—it can be influenced by stress, fatigue, hormones, mood, or simply being out of practice. The good news? There are many practical, low-pressure ways to get yourself into the mood. This guide walks you through what arousal really is, why it can feel hard sometimes, and proven techniques to help you feel horny more easily—whether you’re solo or with a partner.
