A woman who worked on a nude cruise carrying 2,000 passengers has opened up about what happens when people allegedly “get excited” on board.

She says the cruise’s nude policy is strictly non‑sexual and passengers are warned against showing any signs of arousal. According to her, the rules don’t just exist on paper; staff actively remind guests what is expected if things get awkward.

The woman, organizer Kat Whitmire of the nude‑cruise company Bare Necessities explained to Business Insider the steps staff use to keep the vibe calm. She said that when a man starts to “feel things around moving down there,” the advice is simple and blunt.

Inside life aboard the nude cruise

Whitmire said: "We say that if they start to feel things around moving down there, jump in cold water, or think about baseball." That advice reflects the cruise’s strict approach to nudity: there is no tolerance for sexual displays or arousal.

According to a former passenger who posted on Reddit, erections “almost never happen” on board. He wrote: "This cruise is very non-sexual, so a man would want to hide it somehow. Non-nudists think about this a lot more than nudists do."

This isn’t just about covering up. The cruise enforces a set of rules for all passengers. One rule demands permission before taking photos that include other people. Another rule concerns attire - or the lack thereof - in certain contexts.

For example, in the formal dining room there is a neutral dress code. Whitmire explained the rule there as "no nips, no bits and no butts" because staff carry trays of hot food and someone naked would not want to risk burns or spills.

From models to cruise staff

Whitmire and her husband first joined the cruise as models, after being approached by a friend who worked there as a photographer. They returned later as general staff. In 2010 Whitmire became a sales associate, and then moved into her current role as a full-time cruise organizer.

Her experience gives her a unique view of how a nude cruise of 2,000 people can operate while trying to keep things relaxed yet respectful.

Noughties heartthrob Megan Fox experienced some technical issues as soon as her latest venture was released.

The Transformers star has launched her own exclusive paid-content page on Subs.com, having partnered with the site.

Her profile promises “videos, photos and posts you won’t find anywhere else,” giving people direct access to “message and experience a more personal side” of mega-famous Megan Fox.

Megan Fox has a sexy new side hustle

In a press release for her new site, Fox, 40, said: “Women have spent decades being told that visibility is power while someone else owns the platform, the audience or the image?

“I’m interested in what happens when women own all three.”

Despite the site's swish look with promo pics of the Jennifer’s Body star wearing a white tank top with the words “smart brunette” written across the chest and red bikini bottoms, meganfox.world proved faulty.

According to Page Six, the website immediately broke the internet upon its launch, crashing from so many early viewers.

Her fans took to the comments, writing: "I think the link is messsd up. Or did the web crash? When you go to your website and click exclusive content, it just goes to a blank page."

Others added: "Megan, they fix the link? It's crashed....." and: "You’ve literally broken the internet—the site isn’t working!"

However, this is not Fox’s only foray into the adult entertainment world, as she has been named as a co-owner of Subs.com, which was co-founded by Tim Stokely, one of the people behind OnlyFans.

In a statement, adult industry mogul Stokely said: “Megan understands this shift from a perspective very few people can.

“She became globally famous before talent had the tools to own their audiences or control their distribution.”

He also added: “Megan isn’t simply launching a page on Subs. She has a seat at the table and is helping us build the platform.”

Fox has been flogging subscriptions on social media

So far, Fox has released a number of sexy snaps, including one in which she is wearing a metallic bikini while taking a dip in the pool.

She posted the sultry photos on Instagram in a very understated announcement of her new venture. In the caption, she wrote: "a neo-noir erotic thriller," as she urged her followers to “check [her] stories” for the official link to her exclusive content.

Reacting to the news, her fans commented: "The haters must be crying now seeing so much perfection from Megan Fox," and: "We got Megan Fox exclusive content before GTA6."

Others added: "Girls about to become reaaaal rich real quick lol," and: "this is giving jennifer check babe what r u trying to tell us."

The news comes after Fox faced backlash online this week when images circulating show the mom-of-four looking dramatically different from her younger self.

While fans rushed to defend her, many of the comments were questioning if she has had cosmetic work done and criticizing her new look.

John Cena has shared a rare comment about a sex scene with Amy Schumer, where she claimed he was "inside her".

As previously reported, Schumer and Cena starred together in the 2015 romcom Trainwreck, where the WWE star played Steven, a muscular gym addict and one of her character Amy’s many flings before she falls for the film’s leading man.

Speaking about the infamous sex scene they shared, Schumer told Australian chat show The Project how she kept a straight face during the scene, joking: “Because he was actually inside me. Who am I to stop him?”

Bill Hader, who also starred in the film, chimed in at the time: “Wrestlers, they're not faking. When they're wrestlers they don't fake!”, as Amy added: “It’s real.”

Describing what getting intimate with Cena was like, Schumer added: "It's a whole universe, that butt… it’s not even human. It felt like having a refrigerator on top of me."

She continued: "I think it was probably harder for him. He had to, like, do something. I just did what I usually do when I have sex. Just lay there.”

Schumer then quipped: “You know what? I didn’t get to feel his balls. It’s a major regret of mine. Major regret.”

For his part, Cena has rarely commented on the experience, but he revealed on the Happy Sad Confused podcast that he "came prepared" for the gig, which then turned into more than he expected.

He explained: "Let's take Trainwreck for example, a part that was written simply to be a one scene gag.

"Amy's true experience in life where she had way too physical sex with someone and it was like 'this is just too physical, I can't, like I'm out' because it's a gag and super funny.

"We did stunt rehearsals and we used none of it because of the audition and their ability to pivot and be like 'oh man' but I came prepared dude.

"I came prepared and confident and knew like 'okay, I'm giving this small window of probably 90 seconds on screen my everything,' and what I'm not going to do is get out of that audition and say 'I could have done more.'"

Back in 2015, Cena also spoke out about the scene on Conan, admitting: "It was awkward. And they wanted awkward so we gave them awkward.

"Honestly I didn’t think I’d get the part. And I kept putting it off not telling [then-wife Nicole Bella] and not having the discussion of, ‘Hey there may be some graphic scenes.’"

In a separate interview with Fox News, he said: “It was uncomfortable. I never thought I would get the part in the first place. Then I got the part and was thinking I have to be naked. It was nerve-wracking.

“Nicole had every right to be upset because I didn’t tell her about it at first. I never really approached her with ‘I’m trying to do this thing.’ Nicole had every right to be mad because I should have told her from the beginning."

A gynecologist has spoken out about what happens if you stop shaving your private parts following Dakota Johnson's admission.

As previously reported, the 37-year-old actress revealed that she stopped shaving her pubic hair for her role as Anastasia Steele in the first Fifty Shades of Grey movie in 2015.

Johnson appeared fully nude in the movie, and as pubic hair was a key part of her character's plotline, she decided to go for the real deal instead of fake hair.

She revealed during an appearance on First We Feast: "I grew my pubic hair. For Fifty Shades, the first one, I was full frontal, and she was supposed to have never had a wax."

When asked if she'd considered wearing a pubic wig - known as a merkin - Johnson quickly responded: "No."

While full bushes might have fallen out of favor in recent decades following their heyday in the '70s, they appear to be having something of a resurgence as more people opt to ditch the razor in favor of au naturale.

A gynecologist has spoken out to dispel some of the common myths around not shaving your pubic hair, including those about hygiene.

Dr. Holly W. Cummings revealed in an article for Every Stage Health that a lot of the preconceptions about what women should be doing with their pubic hair are deeply rooted in societal expectations and common myths.

She revealed that many patients she sees in clinic apologize for not having shaved, adding: "Pubic hair is natural - we are mammals, after all. And yet, people can be very emotional about the state of their hair 'down there.'

"These feelings are deeply rooted in societal expectations and myths about pubic hair, especially for women."

She shut down the idea that pubic hair is inherently 'unclean' or could smell, explaining that it is there to provide an important function and is generally not bad smelling if a person maintains good hygiene.

Dr. Cummings explained: "The purpose of pubic hair is to protect us, just like the hair around your ears, nose, and eyes.

"It keeps the skin of your vulva warm and moisturized. It protects the delicate skin from friction during sexual activity. It keeps dust, dirt, and germs away from the vagina to prevent infection.

"Researchers even suspect pubic hair may play a role in sexual attraction and sexual pleasure."

She also highlighted the fact that the vagina is a "self-cleaning organ", and that any smells are from the pubic hair doing what it is designed to do - trapping sweat, oil, and bacteria.

To care for the area properly, she says it just needs to be washed with water, rather than any fragranced soaps which can disrupt the pH balance of the vagina.

She confirmed: "Long story short, there is nothing dirty or unclean about pubic hair. There is no medical reason to remove it.

"And yet, many people feel pressured to shave or wax because of our society’s long-standing ideas of gender, beauty, and purity."

Dr. Cummings highlighted that the prevalence of pubic hair also varies culturally, with American women being more conditioned to remove their pubic hair than women from other cultures.

Leaving your pubic hair to grow naturally is absolutely fine, but if you choose to remove some - or all - of it, Dr. Cummings shared some tips.

She revealed that trimming, rather than shaving, the area is the safest option as it just shortens the hair rather than risking cutting or grazing the skin below, which can lead to irritation or infection.

As for shaving, she admitted she is "not a big fan" of the idea as it "can hurt sensitive skin, leading to rashes, ingrown hairs, and infection."

If shaving is your preferred method of hair removal, Dr. Cummings advises to "use a new, clean razor every time" as used ones can carry bacteria, and to shave in the direction of hair growth rather than against the grain, however she notes that it can be difficult as pubic hair can grow in "multiple directions".

As for waxing, she advises to make sure that you are visiting an experienced licensed professional and ensuring they follow strict hygiene protocols, including never "double-dipping" into the wax pot, which can cause cross-contamination between customers.

As for doing it yourself, she added: "If you choose to groom your pubic hair yourself, take your time and use soap or shaving cream as a lubricant. Use a mirror as a guide, so you can see what you’re doing."

Importantly, she reiterated: "As an ob-gyn, I want you to know that pubic hair is normal. Whether to groom or let it grow is your choice - no one else’s.

"And there is no reason to apologize about your pubic hair, to your ob-gyn or anyone else."

Aubrey Plaza was once asked to perform an unsimulated sex scene for a movie, and she has since spoken out about the "nightmare".

The actress, now 42, starred in the 2013 raunchy coming-of-age comedy The To Do List as Brandy Klark, a straight-A student who sets out to tackle a list of sexual experiences before heading to college.

Among them was a moment of self-pleasure — a scene Plaza thought would be simulated.

Alongside an intimacy director, performers are usually equipped with modesty barriers, prosthetics or the camera doesn't show what is actually happening and the sexual act is implied.

Much to her surprise, this wasn't actually the case.

Speaking to Conan O’Brien back when the film was released, Plaza admitted she had envisioned something far tamer: “In my head, I envisioned a nice scene where you see my hand slowly go out of frame.”

Instead, she arrived on set to find the camera mounted above her bed, wearing just underwear and a Clinton T-shirt, surrounded by crew members.

“There were a bunch of old men smoking, you know, the crew guys,” she joked, clarifying they weren’t actually smoking — that’s just how she remembers it.

Plaza recalled asking director Maggie Carey what exactly she was supposed to do. “I asked the director, ‘What should I do?’ And she said, ‘Masturbate, like it says in the script.’” The actress summed it up bluntly: “Then I went and touched myself.”

What she expected to be a discreet moment ended up being, in her words, “a full-body shot.”

Looking back, she told Oregon Live that the masturbation scene was “the most nerve-racking” part of filming. “Just because in my head I thought, oh, we’ll probably shoot this in a way where I don’t really have to really do it.”

Plaza later told The Sunday Times the experience was “the weirdest acting job I’ve ever had in my life,” but praised Carey for being “sensitive to things that maybe a male director wouldn’t be sensitive to.”

She also referred to the scene as a "nightmare".

Carey, for her part, described Plaza as “game for anything” and someone who always prioritized comedy over vanity.

It's a good thing that Plaza could see the funny side of this - others might have been pretty uncomfortable.
