HILLSBOROUGH, N.C. — Adam & Eve is marking its 50th anniversary with the release of the ebook “50 Years of Great Sex,” created in collaboration with resident sex therapist Dr. Jenni Skyler.

The “modern and inclusive guide” guide explores the past 50 years of “America’s often conflicting relationship with sexuality while providing insight into sexual health and pleasure,” noted a rep.

“While this book is a short read, it contains everything you need to know to be the best lover you can be. Dr. Jenni begins this journey by exploring how sex went from socially unacceptable to socially unstoppable, from the sexual revolution of the ’70s to the shutdown in the ’80s and back to the ’90s and 2000s reigniting freedom of sexual expression,” the rep continued. “And by opening their doors in 1971, Adam & Eve has been there all 50 of these years, offering sex-positive products and education to the masses.”

The text also offers “simple skills on sex to take your bedroom game to the next level of pleasure,” said the rep, such as tips to master foreplay, a tour of the body’s erogenous zones, instructions on optimizing self-pleasure, the mechanics of oral sex and a study of the many available lube options.

“I’m so excited about this book because it’s short and accessible for all readers, offering a diversity of options to create a fun, pleasurable, and pressure-free sex life,” Skyler said.

BEIJING — The Chinese government has stepped up a campaign by the police to crush “illegal and inappropriate content,” which it defines as “online rumors, pornography and superstition,” as the controversial 2022 Beijing Olympic Games kick off.

Last week, the Cyberspace Administration of China vowed to renew “a month-long round of campaigns to police what it considers illegal and inappropriate content and punish accounts that violate the law and disseminate problematic content,” NBC News reported.

The cyberspace authority celebrated this week the New Year of the Tiger by declaring its mission to clean up the internet and achieve “a healthy, festive and auspicious online environment.”

The crackdown also reportedly resulted in the disappearance of gay dating app Grindr from several app stores in China.

Grindr was bought by Beijing Kunlun Tech Co. in 2016, but the U.S. government pressured the Chinese company to sell it back to a California investor group four years later over national security concerns.

LAS VEGAS — Performer and entrepreneur Lydia Black will release a brand-new collection of handcrafted paddles to her Slut Witch BDSM Etsy shop on Friday at 12 p.m.

“The paddles are made with the same quality and care as Lydia’s previous releases, and have new themes,” a rep explained. “Fans will have eight paddles to choose from, with different and beautiful themes. Some paddles include jewel-toned butterflies with real jewel beetles, paper bat skeletons and other specimens from Moth and Myth, real bones and delicate flowers with a Valentine’s theme.”

“With an extra coat of resin to make them glossy and thick, Lydia’s full-size paddles are thick enough to withstand heavy impact without splintering or breaking,” the rep continued. “If you are looking for the perfect Valentine’s Day gift for a special kinky friend or yourself, look no further than Slut Witch BDSM Shop.”

Black noted she took a four-month hiatus from making paddles.

“I am so excited for this new drop,” she said. “I always put a lot of thought and care into my creations, and use my experience to create extra-strong, but unique paddles,” she said. “I’ve gotten great feedback from customers, and they are always a fast seller.”

LOS ANGELES, CA — Wicked has unveiled the fourth episode of Seth Gamble’s feature-directing debut “Deranged.”

The eight-part series’ latest installment spotlights “a torrid threeway” starring Lily Larimar and Jane Wilde with reigning XBIZ “Male Performer of the Year” Mick Blue.

“Dr. Charlie Hayes (Kenzie Taylor) is a brilliant psychologist navigating her dark past as she pursues her nemesis, the deranged Dr. Joseph Curwen (Tommy Pistol). After a hard day at the office, her ruminations lead back to an incident that occurred when she was 18 and out on the streets, the fateful day her teenage self (Larimar) received a mysterious invitation from Lisette (Wilde) and her lover (Blue).”

Gamble described the dual-timeline casting as “a unique challenge.”

“As a filmmaker, your goal is to capture performances across timelines that feel like they are from the same playbook. It was critical that both my wonderful wife Kenzie and Lily be on the same page about Charlie,” he explained. “Fortunately, they both hit it out of the park. They saw Charlie as ambitiously stubborn and ruinously strong, and they manifested that personality assessment into their spoken performances and into a shared physicality during their sex scenes.”

“Kenzie and Lily were completely in step with each other, as if they’d been practicing together their whole lives,” Gamble continued. “Lily is an incredible performer with great screen presence and casting her as a young Charlie was a no-brainer for me. She was excited to be there and brought the role to life. I think Lily is a great actress and this is just an early example of what she can bring to the table.”

The director noted he performed opposite Wilde in her first scene in January 2018.

“We’ve worked together close to a dozen times since then, and we have a shorthand in how we communicate that brings efficiency to our relationship as a performer and a director,” he noted. “She knew instinctively what I was looking for in the character of Lisette. James Avalon and Shaun Rivera lit the scene in a very moody, artistic way and Jane gave a powerhouse performance.”

Gamble added that Blue is the XBIZ “Male Performer of the Year” for “a very simple reason. He’s top-tier in every way.”

“To my mind, even when I was playing supporting roles, I thought I was the lead because I cared about the work so much. They don’t teach you in acting class to be a lead or supporting character. You maintain the same professionalism regardless, and Mick is cut from the same cloth in the way he approaches the business,” Gamble said. “As a performer, he knows it boils down to essence. You listen and break down a scene. He really focuses on his work and steers clear of distractions.”
