Gold has always occupied a peculiar and almost paradoxical space in human imagination. It is at once an object of beauty, a store of value, a medium of exchange, and a symbol of power and status. Its allure is both material and psychological: the warm glow of a coin in the hand, the sense of permanence, the knowledge that it has been valued by humans for thousands of years. Unlike paper currency, which can be printed, devalued, or manipulated, gold is finite, immutable, and universally recognized. It carries an authority no government can fully replicate and a scarcity no central bank can manufacture. Historically, gold has been intertwined with the rise and fall of civilizations. Empires minted coins, waged wars, and built monumental wealth around it. Its durability and portability…

Something Has Shifted There’s a quiet tension running through the modern dating landscape that many men feel but few can put into words. The old advice—the rules they grew up with—still circulates: be sharper, earn more, dominate the room, learn the lines that trigger interest. Yet those formulas no longer deliver the results they once promised. The world has moved faster than the script. Attraction feels harder to spark, even as it has never been more visible. Everyone looks polished online. Everyone speaks with confidence. Everyone projects the image of being interesting. And yet, genuine pull feels rare, fleeting, and difficult to sustain. What has changed is not what people desire. It is how desire takes shape. It has shifted from a transactional, visible metric to something far less tangible.…

Instagram @chelseabpereira Location Singer Island, Florida Happy to have you on FHM. Any exciting projects lined up this year? Growing my travel business, Atlas Luxury Travel, shooting bold editorial stories, and spending more time in the ocean. I’m also hoping to get my diving certification, so expect more salt, sun, and adventure this year. What does confidence mean to you personally? Confidence is refusing to shrink. It’s knowing who you are, what you desire, and allowing yourself to take up space without apology. For me, confidence came when I stopped separating my identities and allowed sensuality, ambition, and motherhood to exist together. What has been the most defining moment in your journey so far? Becoming a mother changed everything. It didn’t soften my edge; it sharpened it. It forced me to…

Instagram @lux_laurarios Happy to have you on FHM. Any exciting projects lined up this year? This year is about expansion and elevation. I’m working on new visual concepts that blend luxury, femininity, and confidence, as well as collaborations that push my brand beyond social media into more editorial and lifestyle spaces. I’m very intentional about where my energy goes now, and everything I’m building reflects that growth. Can you please tell us a little bit about yourself? I’m a creator and entrepreneur who has built her brand around effort and hard work and my brand will be a symbol of perseverance built through discipline, sacrifice, and consistency. What does confidence mean to you personally? Confidence is self-trust. It’s knowing who you are, setting boundaries, and not shrinking yourself to make others…

We hit the streets to ask men and women what they really think about sex today. Is it kinkier than ever? More conservative? What have they tried—or would like to try? Their answers ranged from hilarious to deeply honest, revealing how desire, experimentation, and anxiety coexist in the modern sexual landscape. Q: Do you think sex is kinkier now than when you were younger? Or more conservative? Mark, 28: “Honestly, I think it’s a little of both. People talk about sex like it’s this wild, untamed thing because of the internet, porn, TikTok, all the culture now—but in reality, I feel like most of my friends are still pretty vanilla. It’s more that there’s more awareness, right? People know the terms, they know the fantasies, but actually living them? Not…

What began as a tool quietly became an environment. The smartphone didn’t just help men live their lives—it began to frame how those lives were experienced. Time fragmented into notifications. Attention splintered into tabs. Silence became something to fill. Boredom, once a gateway to creativity or rest, became intolerable. The phone was no longer something you used; it was something you checked, reflexively, without thought. And now, something is shifting. Not loudly. Not dramatically. There’s no mass rejection, no symbolic smashing of devices, no anti-tech rebellion. Instead, there is a quieter, more telling response. Men are stepping back. Not abandoning technology, but repositioning it. Replacing certain functions. Redesigning how much access it has to their time, attention, and emotional state. Not because they long for the past—but because they’re saturated…

Model @CarissaRosario Location Downtown Los Angeles | @GlowUpWith_Yovana Congratulations on your FHM Sweden cover! Describe your photo shoot. My cover shoot for FHM Sweden was truly a dream come true. It was especially meaningful to work with one of my all-time favorite photographers, Arthur St. John, someone I’ve worked with for years and deeply admire. We actually shot a few years ago together for FHM. This shoot was a 360 moment. This cover shoot was shot in downtown Los Angeles at a breathtaking location that offered an incredible variety of backdrops from sweeping city views to lush, jungle-inspired scenery and stunning poolside settings. Every space brought a different energy, and together we were able to create something truly special for the magazine. It was an unforgettable experience and a highlight in…
