Turns out the qualities people find most attractive about others are ones we can control: Grooming, diet, posture — not the beauty you were born (or not born) with. So, rejoice: You don't have to be a supermodel to get dates and be noticed by men.
It's redemption time, ladies! A new study has found that men take longer than women to get ready. I'm thrilled with the news and I'll probably throw it in some future boyfriend's face, but I'm not sure I believe it.
We've all been in relationships where, at times, we've felt more like a mom or a secretary than a significant other. While we understand that healthy relationships require compromises, we've compiled a list of favors that good boyfriends know better than to consistently request. If you're constantly taking on any of the items on this list (especially with any hint of resentment), it's time to get your guy to lend a hand.
We've come a long way from the days of Burt Reynolds' hairy chest to what's considered sexy now. "No Shave November," this month's prostate cancer awareness campaign, which is encouraging men not to shave for the entire month, is certainly an exception to the trend!
Do good men lie? Is emotional intelligence the most important thing in a husband? Is a "loose" "lady area" indicative of unfaithfulness? How much is your sex worth? There are 10 things all people want in a partner. What to do when your guy has unfinished business with his ex? Why cohabiting is going to ruin your relationship. What men learn about women in college (not college women). The basics on manscaping.
Recently I've been coping with the aftermath of a breakup—not a separation from my significant other, mind you, but from my waxist. Our split was not for lack of compatibility. She works at an athletic club where my husband and I discontinued our membership for budgetary concerns. I knew I would miss my go-to gal, but I frankly I didn't realize quite how much. And I suspect my husband, ahem, misses her too.
When it comes to wooing the opposite sex, men have it easy. As far as I know, they approach you and whip out the pick-up line. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. Women on the other hand, play a whole different game. Sometimes it seems as if our entire existence is based on impressing a guy. And it's exhausting. We don't think about it often (or we argue that we're doing these things for ourselves as much as for the men), but when you stop and take notice of all the things we do to woo the gentlemen, well, it's absurd.
There are certain things that automatically attract a woman to a man, and some of these things are so important that they make up the type of guys women can’t resist. Here are five of them. Guys, see which one (or ones, for that matter) fit you. If any of these don’t, have no fear because it all goes back to preferences. You might have something that makes you truly, charmingly unique, or you may have a combination of all of these.
Essentially there are two types of people in this world. There are those who believe image is everything and those who throw on a shirt from the floor and get on with their day. Can you guess which group is more likely to be single? Okay, there are some blessed freaks of nature that spend virtually no time thinking about how they present themselves to the world yet always manage to look fabulous-- and be taken-- but for the rest of us, image matters--a lot.
From makeup to hair removal, do you keep your beauty habits a secret from your guy? Plus, the number one beauty ritual women say their boyfriends will never find out about.
In The Hairpin's Ask a Dude column recently, an advice-seeker brought up this hairy situation: who should pay for your bikini wax? She thinks the man asking for it should, writing "I always think guys should be paying for the Brazilians if they want their ladies to have them. Is that insane?"
