New Yorkers are wild in the bedroom, according to a new study conducted by Nasty Gal. You might want to try it out (if you haven't done it yet) on Valentine's Day. The folks at Nasty Gal took a look at the most popular intimate positions of each state.

The 'Corkscrew' is New Yorkers' favorite position in the bedroom.

I honestly had no idea what this was, so I had to look it up. Women's Health describes how to do the corkscrew,

Lean on the edge of a bed or bench (we'd recommend an indoors bench for this one), and rest on the hip and forearm of one side. Press your thighs together while your partner stands and straddles you, then enters from behind.

Sounds interesting. It seems like it would be fun to try around the house. Nasty Gal also studied the most popular kink for each state.

New York's favorite fetish is masochism, which Merriam-Webster describes as,

The derivation of sexual gratification from being subjected to physical pain or humiliation by oneself or another person

New York's favorite position and fetish make for quite an adventurous combination. Whatever your preferred position and fetish are, just make sure you protect yourself when you're doing the do!

These 3 Sexually Transmitted Infections Are The Most Popular in New York

With COVID-19 and the flu dominating the news cycle, it might be easy to forget about other harmful bacterial infections still making their rounds. While we may enjoy a good sneaky link or entanglement, there can be serious repercussions. Make no mistake, Sexually Transmitted Infections are still around. Three groups, in particular, are the most affected by STIs in New York State,

The highest rates of STIs in NYS continued to be seen in young people, non-Hispanic black individuals, and men who have sex with men.

According to the most recent data released by the New York State Health Department, these three sexually transmitted diseases are the most commonly transmitted.

3. Syphilis
Early Syphilis is the third most popular STI with 7,247 New Yorkers contracting the disease. Gangster and mafia boss Al Capone died of complications of untreated Syphilis,

Due to his failing health, Capone was released from prison on November 16, 1939, and referred to the Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore for the treatment of paresis (caused by late-stage syphilis).

In New York City, New York County had the most cases with 1,922. Outside of the City, the Hudson Valley region had the most cases with 424. Antibiotics can cure Syphilis, but the damage done by letting it go untreated cannot be undone.

The increase among females was higher than males (10.6% compared to 9.2%). Additionally, the rates were highest among males 20-34, and among females 15-24.

The highest number of cases of Gonorrhea were in New York County with 9,242. Outside of NYC, the Rochester region had the most cases with 2,652 and the Buffalo region was not far behind with 2,521 cases. It can be treated with antibiotics, but there is a new antimicrobial resistant Gonorrhea.
