If these emails and horror stories are any indication, bankers and "money guys" are the new psychos.
I've been on a few dates with guys who work in "finance" — as in, they can't explain to me in 10 words or less what it is exactly that they do with all those numbers and dollar signs all day long. I'm always initially attracted to them because of the way they can rock a suit, a la Barney Stinson, and how they exude so much confidence and purpose in what they do. But as soon as that tie is loosened and that second Jack-and-Coke is dry, their horns come out.
In the new comedy, a bachelor and a family man switch lives, learn stuff women already know.
If American Pie and Freaky Friday got drunk and haphazard one night and made a baby, it'd be The Change-Up. Check out the movie poster or trailer, and you know what happens. Mitch (Ryan Reynolds) is an underemployed actor and dude-about-town who's never met a skirt he wouldn't chase—or couldn't catch. Dave (Jason Bateman) is his best friend and complete opposite. He's an adult with all the trimmings: three kids, a beautiful wife (Leslie Mann) and an impressive career. And of course, neither is quite happy with his lot in life.
A new website wants users to know that they can do better.
There are just a few things that all of us can agree upon: 1. Taxes aren't that fun. 2. Healthcare is might pricey. And 3. There is something really unsettling about exceptionally good-looking people dating exceptionally unattractive people. Sometimes, the circumstances are extenuating: he's rich or she wants to look hotter by comparison or he has a fetish or she lost a bet of some kind. The possibilities are endless. But that doesn't keep people from judging them based on looks alone. In fact, a veritable cottage industry (I don't even know what that means) has arisen based upon people's disbelief that SHE IS WITH HIM? A new website wants to let people know, definitively, that they can do better.
Sometimes, those "brilliant" pickup moves don't go as planned.
Attracting women isn't always easy. Repelling women, however, is almost as easy as falling out of a boat. Here are some pickup moves and peacocking must-not-dos.
Because it's good to know where you stand in the pantheon of gross, unpleasant famous guys.

Nice guys finish last because women love bad boys. Thanks, evolution.
A study says that women like their men like their coffee: dark. More accurately, the study shows that college dudes with the "dark triad" of personality traits (selfishness, lying and death-defying) sleep with more chicks. Evidently, evolution favors the kind of guy who would slime his way into your loincloth, finish" quickly and swing out of the cave on a vine. That guy has an opportunity to spread his seeds far and wide. Evidently, that's why there are so many jerks and bad boys walking around these days.
The guys at College Humor help illustrate why being a hot chick isn't all it's cracked up to be.
Hot chicks seem to have everything going for them. They get out of speeding tickets, go the front of lines and people seem to feel compelled to just give them things. But maybe being just super-cute isn't all it's cracked up to be. Her overwhelming charm has a chance of inciting jealousy in other women, she may become a frottage target for douchebags and are just like the rest of us, she's still susceptible (maybe more so) to Body Dysmorphic Disorder. It's not easy and College Humor illustrates why.
Jay Louis (and others) wonder why is she with HIM?
There are an awful lot of d-bags out there. And there are, evidently, just as many hot chicks into them. A partial explanation why and a few choices for alternatives to the word "douchebag." Plus a little on the lawsuit against HotChicksWithDouchebags.com's Jay Louis.
Recent argument with Pink revealed what kind of person Mayer is: a regular guy.
It's been a long, exciting trip for John Mayer. Back in the day he was just a dude who liked to rock out on his guitar, a real regular guy. Then the fame came and brought the ladies. He dated his way through Jennifer Love Hewitt, Jessica Simpson, and Minka Kelly but really hit the A-List with Jennifer Aniston. And he picked up a lot of grief from the media and general populace on his meteoric climb. Word like lothario, douchebag, and gold digger were lobbed at the singer-songwriter. But maybe he just never stopped being a regular guy. Ever think of that, smart guy?
Julia Allison and Charles Forman show us the right way to split.
Sometimes nerds breakup. It's a fact and sometimes those nerds have developed enough fame that they have a real platform to take their grievances public. Julia Allison and Charles Forman show us how it's done.
