Boozers love other boozers, says a SUNY study.
Interesting news out of SUNY (State University Of New York) Buffalo. Evidently, the couple that boozes together cruises together.
According to the University At Buffalo's website, Dr. Gregory Homish has been studying the behavior and satisfaction of couples for a decade. He has come to the conclusion that couples with similar vices (alcohol and cigarettes in this case) and levels of engagement in said vices are likely to be more content with their relationship. And the correlation was greater for alcohol consumption than tobacco use. Essentially, heavy drinkers are more likely to be happy in their marriage than a … Read More
Those who study where we've been, are most likely to get where they want.
If you thought there wasn't a correlation between your major and scoring stats you were sorely mistaken, my friend. Little did you know when you veered off into engineering, all those lucky history buffs were going to analyze world war explosions during the day and create more sparks at night, too. Sexual History: Does it Matter?
A new British study by the Oxford University student newspaper Cherwell says those who study history get the most action, with politics, English literature, philosophy and economic students also doing very well in the bedroom.
Granted the survey was only … Read More
Perhaps the TLC star is looking to add a few more friends to the family.
Jon Gosselin, father of 8 and star of TLC's Jon & Kate Plus 8, has been seen picking up babes all over town. The problem is that his babies are home in bed and the ones he's running with just happen to be 21-year-old female college students. No, he's not recruiting the family's next babysitter. It seems he's just having a bit of fun late at night and without his wife.
Although MSNBC reported that "couple of girls who met Jon that night said he didn't flirt with anyone," Jon is back in the hot seat once … Read More
Coming into your own at a later age might make sex and dating easier.
The overnight British singing sensation Susan Boyle has given a whole new spin on the term late bloomer. After admitting to never having been kissed, as a 47-year-old woman, the folks over at Smitten asked their readers how many of them were late-bloomers. A late bloomer does not have to mean you are a 40-year old virgin or have never been kissed at age 47. It might mean that you had your first kiss a few years later than your friends seemed to, that your first relationship wasn't until after college, or that you just didn't really grow … Read More
Guys and girls have different rules when it comes to dating an ex.
One recent night at the bar, as I was sipping on my Long Island, a nearby guy began hitting on me. He asked me to dance, and my inebriated-state told me that this was a good idea. However, upon our dancing (read: trying to maintain balance in heels) and conversing (read: finding out basic facts), he told me casually that he used to see one of my sorority sisters. He said that he was surprised he hadn't met me before, as he had slept at the house so often.
Red Flag. Peace out, playa.
He seemed a little peeved and surprised … Read More

Psychology. Condoms. Lube. NYU class covers all the bases.
Dad balked about paying for my NYU classes "intro to grassroots organizing" and "pop culture and politics," which he insisted wouldn't help me get a job. And he was sorta right.
So it's a good thing that I was not in NYU's "psychosexual analysis of human behavior" course, which I have a feeling Bill O'Reilly's going to be screaming about. Why? The professor asked students to stand up in front of the class and use their hands to show how using lube makes sex better. Useful, yes. But not $40,000-a-year useful!
According to NYULocal, the NYU blog, professor … Read More
College Humor spoofs "March of the Penguins."
Here's a little video for you on this Friday in August...because let's face it, you're not really doing much work anyway, right?
CollegeHumor has this hilarious spoof video of that cute little penguin documentary March of the Penguins, only this one's called "March of Shame" and it's about regrettable college hookups.
Narrated in uber-serious, Morgan Freeman-like intonations, the vid chronicles a trio of high-heel and short skirt-clad coeds who wake up next to some 19-year-old boys and then scamper across campus hoping not to get caught.
I'm a little bothered by the slut-shaming aspect of the vid -- … Read More
