Celebrities are perhaps more willing than ever to let the public into their private lives by sharing information that they wouldn't have dreamed of only a few years ago.
While I think we can all agree that we know a bit too much about random people from the internet's lives, it seems to be a common trend in recent times that people think we need to know everything they do in the bedroom.
Whether it's Rebel Wilson admitting that she didn't lose her virginity until the age of 35 or Ne-Yo sharing more about his life with four girlfriends, sex stories are rife in the media.
And now Nikki Glaser is the latest to jump on that trend, after she admitted that she likes to see her on-and-off boyfriend Chris Convy sleep with other women, while making it clear that she never expects him to meet his 'soulmate'.

Although it's a foreign concept to many, the idea of swinging or in this case hot-husbanding, it something which is certainly growing in popularity, and now the comedian has shared a bit more about why it's not a problem for her, since committing to the same person for life is the same as 'settling'.
Speaking on the Call Her Daddy podcast, the 41-year-old said: "Innately, it is settling. You do not know that the person you are with is the best person for you. There's too many people on this planet. You haven't met [some] of them and you never will. You have to settle.
"There could be someone better for you and statistically, there probably is. Luckily, people end up in the top 10 per cent of people who are most compatible for them in the planet and that's like a win, but there's other people that would be good for you.
"I don't believe in soulmates and I do believe you have to think 'this is the best I can do right now'. I'm going to just cash in my chips, I probably could do better, but who knows?"
It's certainly a very unromantic view of life but from a mathematical point of view, she's probably not wrong, as what are the chances that your soulmate just happened to be 1.2 miles away on Tinder when you were scrolling at 1am?
Glaser made headlines thanks to her comments on the same podcast, as she shared more about the rules for her partner of 13 years when it comes to having sex with another woman.
She said: "In a relationship, I don't really care if my boyfriend were to hook up. But that is not a two-way street.
"I'm not someone who likes to hook up when I'm in a relationship. I don't really care about that. But I don't care if someone else were to. In fact, I kind of like it."
She realised that she got 'revved up' by hearing stories of her partner's sexual past, so encouraged him to create more stories for her, so long as he didn't form an emotional connection with whoever he was sleeping with.
Glaser added: "It would make me horny to think about him doing that with other girls. So, I'd ask about all of his girlfriends or anyone he had hooked up with, all the details about it and it would really be like a foreplay for me. I would get revved up talking about it.
"If a guy has a sexual connection with a girl and he was to use protection and just have sex for a night, I literally wouldn't care if my husband did that. I don't know why. If he were to watch The Wire with her or do crosswords puzzles, or send memes and stuff, I'd be like, 'What the f*** are you doing? That's our thing.' Emotional cheating would hurt me."
