Tokii.com, one of the world’s most relied upon relationship management website platforms for couples, just launched its Kony2012 DiscoveryGame in order to gain feedback, get people talking about the issues, and boost awareness on Kony. Each week Tokii.com offers a number of new DiscoveryGames relating to an array of topics like current events, politics, travel, holidays, love, romance, and sex.

Kony is now in the public eye big time since the world has learned of how he and his LRA regime kidnapped over 30, 000 children so they could work in its rebel group. Under Kony’s ruse, he made young boys and men soldiers, and sadly, young girls and women into “wives” and sex slaves since forming the LRA in 1986, according to the Associated Press.

“The social media world has exploded with so much response this week following the launch of a documentary titled Kony 2012,” says Karla Stephens-Tolstoy, founder and CEO of Tokii.com. “The 30 minute documentary is now posted on YouTube and Vimeo, and as March 20, 2012, the film was viewed over 80 million times. This demonstrates the power of social media and how people want to talk about the issues at hand.”

The documentary, which was directed and produced by Jason Russell for the campaign group Invisible Children Inc, was made in an effort to increase US involvement in capturing a the man who founded the LPA.

“Tokii.com and its Kony 2012 DiscoveryGame is yet another effective tool in promoting awareness of Kony. Simply put, Tokii.com and its members want to make a difference and feel the need to participate in our DiscoveryGame,” says Tolstoy.

Tolstoy points to some thought-provoking results from members who participated in the Kony 2012 DiscoveryGame. “Interestingly, the majority of men feel that he will be killed rather than being captured, while the majority of women suggest he will be caught this year.”

She adds, “A point to highlight from our data is that while both men and women feel the use of social media is effective in creating awareness on the issue involving Kony, our members strongly feel that the negative media attention in the end will not make a difference in the end.”

Of course while the Kony 2012 documentary has generated chatter, so has Russell himself, the film’s director who was involved in a scandal only days ago. Despite this however, men and women with Tokii.com don’t feel it does not alter the problem.

Tokii.com just expanded its ecosystem of relationship support and resources with the launch of TokiiTales. Through a unique mix of real life stories and fiction about relationship experiences, the site content is hot and steamy, but it also creates learning opportunities in thought-provoking ways.

According to Alison Sigmon, therapist and author, storytelling is a cornerstone of cultures around the globe and essential to personal and relationship growth, influence, and evolution. She continues with saying, “It is the most effective method when sharing wisdom, gaining insight, changing behavior, and inspiring others to try something new or different. When we see others have experienced what we’re experiencing, we feel more confident and inspired to act in thoughtful ways.”

TokiiTales is a platform for members to contribute their stories, and at the same time get analysis, advice, and tips from subject matter experts that readers can learn from and use for themselves and their relationships. It promotes exchanging ideas, sharing perspective, and peeking into others’ experiences through story-specific comment streams. Sigmon added, “Just like reading a parable, watching a film, or listening to a great storyteller, TokiiTales offers a stage and an audience for anyone seeking information and support about relevant, current subjects in entertaining and even provocative formats.”

No holds barred – the site does contain material that is sexually explicit in nature and adult discretion is advised – TokiiTales.com offers an array of categories for online readers which include “What Turns Me On?,” “Erotic,” “Relationship,” “Life Challenges,” “Humour,” and “Mystery.”

Karla Stephens-Tolstoy, Founder and CEO of Tokii.com, indicates that the launch of TokiiTales is another avenue to provide experience and knowledge through methods tailored to the needs and style of the individual.

Tolstoy adds, “The launch of TokiiTales will be a hit for new and current members. Let’s face it, the world is a changing place and people in relationships who have careers and living fast-paced lives need a site like ours for advice, guidance, and support. We want everyone to share their stories, post comments and engage in dialogue on topics that focus on love, sex, and relationships and so much more.”

- Some of the highlights from our members and comments from experts:

29% of men, 11% of women feel it is important to make love on Valentine’s Day

Sex in a relationship is important, period. Studies show that sex is a predictor of a happy relationship.  [It] can be a miracle worker. Good sex induces the release of oxytocin and dopamine [and] fosters trust; a feeling of closeness long after the act itself is over.

(Dr. Amir Levine and Rachel S.F. Heller, MA “Attached: The New Science of Attachment”)

25% of men, 19% of women absolutely believe Valentine’s Day is for females

Females are usually more concerned about the relating aspect of relationships.  They often pay attention to details and may feel unloved, unacknowledged and unappreciated if they don’t receive a Valentine’s Day gift.

(Dr. Erica Goodstone, twitter.com/BoomerHealthy)

45% of men, 19% of women think men should also be spoiled on Valentine’s Day

Let’s face it; Valentine’s Day is for women!  It’s advertised to men that they need to do something for their significant other, [but] there is nothing a man wants more than to be wanted!  What better way to show it than on Valentine’s Day!  It’s a great opportunity to shake things up in a relationship!

(David Simonsen MS, LMFT. Creative Solutions Counseling)

Tokii asked, the community responded:  

Would Your Partner Be Devastated if You Forgot Valentine’s Day?

37% Men say yes – 13% Women say yes

Fool Around in Bed All Day?

32% Men say yes – 9% Women say yes

Play Dress Up With a Sexy Costume?

19% Men say yes – 59% Women say yes

Do Men Want Sports Tickets?

20% of Men say yes – 29% of Women say yes

Do Men Want Sex?

50% Men say yes – 38% of Women say yes

Karla Stephens-Tolstoy, founder and CEO of Tokii.com, the brains behind Tokii’s Valentine’s Day campaign, knew it would gain lots of attention among devoted Tokii members.

“We wanted to really know what Valentine’s Day means for men and women, and we sure learned a lot. The results from our community have generated some striking differences between men and women: some aren’t all too surprising, women are interested in gifts and being pampered, men want the sex, but what’s great is that the context for these needs.  When you read between the lines a little you can see that what women really want is thoughtfulness, and what men are after is to feel needed.”

Those serving in the military also took part in the DiscoveryGametailored to their situation, which also produced some interesting findings.

Here are some highlights from Military Valentine’s Day: Far Away Romance:

Here are a few of those more common differences:

• 45% of men said they feel they achieve intimacy by connecting sexually
• 85% of women said they feel intimacy by connecting emotionally

So the majority of women are more likely to seek intimacy through an emotional connection like talking and cuddling as opposed to men who are actually split between connecting emotionally and physically.

But what about frequency? Stereotypes suggest men are always on the prowl… and that one’s mostly true, but what about for women? Tokii’s stats revealed that men and women are thinking about sex quite a lot:

• 49% of men said they think about sex as often as they breathe
• 46% of women said they have sex on their mind as frequently as they check their email

What is it about sex that has men instinctually craving it like a natural bodily function? Perhaps they are more naturally aware of the benefits of sex on reducing stress. When men were asked if they use sex to reduce stress and feel better, over 80% gave a resounding “Yes!” When asked the same question, only 50% of women said they use sex for the same benefits.

But perhaps it’s not that women don’t get the same benefits to stress relief. As Certified Professional Life Coach Wendy Kay points out, there may be a more scientific reason why women don’t feel the need for stress-reducing stress:

“Both genders feel more relaxed after experiencing the release of endorphins and oxytocin that result from having sex. The chemical gives feelings of euphoria and a sense of bonding and will stay in the system for carrying times. For a male it could last 1 to 2 hours. But for a female, it could last up to 2 days.”

Despite of the clear differences between the way men and women approach intimacy, there are important similarities:

• 40% of men and 62% of women agree the neck is hot spot for physical intimacy
• 57% of men and 48% of women agree kissing is their favorite form of foreplay

In addition, both men and women agreed that the mouth was one of the most intimate parts of the body. With one kiss, men and women said they are able to communicate their desire, their needs, and the interest for one another.

When asked about the similarity between the sexes, Therapist and Author Alison Sigmon explains, “the mouth is a very intimate place – we use it to test many things – even compatibility. Think about all the things we do with our mouth and the role that is plays as a gateway to our body and our mind.” The tongue, Sigmon adds, lets us know if what it’s touched tastes good and is safe, and our lips – with all the many nerve endings – tell us about warmth, cold, roughness, etc. She also offers a reason why a kiss doesn’t always generate the same response:

“Combine these components into a single experience like a kiss, and you’ve got the story of the other person in an instant, which fires off a ton of information that tells the body what kind of hormones should be mobilized for the experience. This is likely why you physically and emotionally respond differently to your Aunt Bessie’s sloppy smooch and your partner’s slow, present kiss.”

Tokii’s own Community Stats help us to understand the differences and similarities between the male and female perspective, and Tokii’s founder and CEO, Karla Tolstoy-Stephens, says that has been part of Tokii’s mission since day one:

“Tokii’s goal is to provide current, informative, and reliable answers to topics that can be illusive and at times uncomfortable. We also provide resources and support to help couples avoid unnecessary conflict in their relationship. Our products make it easier for men and women to interact and discover new and delightful things about their relationship and themselves.”
