Sex, Spice and Everything Nice : For YOU to do on Valentine’s Day

Another year, another Valentine's Day with which you must contend. And now that it is days away you're contemplating the options for what is supposed to be a celebratory soiree. (a) A noisy and crowded bar where the median age is the square root of your own; (b) Dinner with a clan of merrily married couples who will stick you with a bill for two; (c) Movie night at your friend's place or on your couch, which will end with you in a food coma.

With these as choices it's no wonder why this once a year event can lead to anything but fireworks. Having been there done all this before, our editors put together a to-do list that will have you feeling good all over this February 14th. Below are some best bets for a truly enjoyable Valentine's Day:

Discover the History of Erotica: If you live or are visiting New York City, Las Vegas, San Francisco, Hollywood or Miami Beach, go for an evening of art appreciation at one of the hosting cities’ Sex Museums. A stroll through any one of these steamy galleries will whet your appetite with erotic art, ancient sex toys and virtual displays.  You'll forget you came there alone!

Join the Mile High Club: If heights turn you on and acrobatics make you melt, you may just want to experience the thrill of circus style flying trapeze! Trapeze School offers 2 hour classes for $47-57 in Boston, Los Angeles, Baltimore and New York, so swing yourself to ecstasy this V-Day.

Dare to Go Completely Bare…Down There!: Personal grooming has come a long way since those unruly bushes we wore in the 1980's. Man or woman, it's time to keep up with the times and Valentine's Day is the perfect time to start zapping away those curly Q's. There's nothing like a new hairdo to keep your spirits and sex life high!

Get a Private Body Rub Down: Why spend the night sulking when you can be touched, stroked and pampered, all in the comfort of your own home. Find a personal masseuse, at MassageTherapy.com, and treat yourself to a stress-free holiday session!

Party with Passion: There is nothing worse than a bunch of single, smart and successful singles singing the "woe is me" tune. Instead, invite your favorite peeps over to your place, men included, for an evening of sex talk and toys a la Passion Party.  Let's just say there will never be any conversation lulls, especially when champagne, chocolate and vibrators are being served.
