Top Toys for a Sensual Shabbat

Spontaneity in sexual activity is celebrated in Hollywood. However, the reality of our lives means that sex might have to be penciled into our day planners. Luckily, the Talmud emphasizes that sexual activity promotes marital and sexual health. And partnered or not, when it comes to health, we can always use some vitamins and supplements to support our systems.
