As if you haven't noticed, the world is just captivated with these Jon and Kate Gosselin people. Newsstands are littered with their mugs almost every week. It's almost like they're the low-rent, philandering Brangelina. Kid army and all. 

Throughout this entire media circus, however, a lot of attention has been paid to Kate Gosselin's spiky, asymmetrical haircut. Needless to say, it isn't the most feminine of looks. In fact, while flipping through pictures of Jon and Kate when they were younger (yes, we did. don't judge) we were shocked at how much softer and prettier Kate looked … Read More

You'll never see a dude turn to another dude and ask, "Do I look fat in these pants?" But that doesn't mean men are invulnerable to insecurities, no matter how much we'd like to think so. Women are upfront about their fears, doubts, and self-esteem. I used to think it was just compulsive gabbiness, a quirk of the fairer sex. But, in fact, it is an admirable coping mechanism that's even a little bit courageous. That said, I'll sack up and admit that I've spent a lot of my life feeling like a fatty, a chubasaurus, half-man and half-marshmallow. Read More

A reader wrote in asking me why most men are "fascinated" with redheads. In this instance, I think "fascinated" is a nice way of saying "obsessed." She admitted to being a redhead, and, therefore, the object of such ardor. She's asked these men why they are so drawn to the crimson-haired, and the best she ever got out of them was "Redheads iz just hawt, yo!" This is true, but it is not the whole truth.

I wouldn't say most men love redheads. A sizable majority, sure. And those men who love redheads likely focus on them because of their genetic … Read More

Last December, I briefly dated a guy who was on the hairy side (c'mon now, it was winter, and it was cold!). While I think that a bit of hair on a guy's chest and back is sexy, lots of hair -- we're talking fur -- is NOT. Watch: Do Women Like Back Hair?

What I've found, however, is that some women LOVE hairy men.

"I love me a big hairy bear of a man," blogger Momma Sunshine tells us.

"The more the better," another single mom shares. "I once dated this guy whose back was hair-free—except for … Read More

In Elle this month a woman writes about how cutting her hair short dramatically changed her dating life.

[My boyfriend] attempted to run his fingers through my now-inch-long hair, opened his mouth to say something, decided against it, and then, for the first time in the two years we'd been together, looked at me without a single watt of sexual charge. It was in that moment I realized just how serious he'd been about this, that he'd actually meant it when he said he wasn't attracted to women with short hair.

But it wasn't just her boyfriend. Read More

I've often wondered how many precious minutes of my life have been lost while I was locked in the privacy of my bathroom, warming a small strip of Sally Hanson wax with my 1800 watt hairdryer, preparing to coif my seemingly uncoiffable bikini region. I usually wonder this as I'm chugging a vodka tonic, doing deep breathing exercises, and enjoying those last few peaceful seconds before I pull the strip off.

You probably know the rest of the story because it might have happened to you once or twice. The strip comes off with four measly hairs, the wax gets caught … Read More

When you picture a military couple, one going off to fight a war, and the other taking on the role of the stay-at-home parent, society typically envisions the man off in battle and the woman home with the children. But with nearly 20 percent of the Air Force consisting of women, men are quickly learning the challenges of being the military spouse, home with the kids.

In the military, dads aren't forced to take care of their children on their own from just 9 to 5 but rather for months at a time while their wives are away on … Read More

We've all heard about the 12 million boys who plastered that bombshell poster of Farrah Fawcett on their walls in the '70s and '80s. The photo first appeared in 1976, the same year Charlie's Angels debuted, and it captured the imaginations of pre-pubescent guys for decades.

The Daily Beast said this weekend that if those salivating young lads examined the image long enough (which you know they totally did), they found a secret, sexy surprise.

In fact the message in that poster didn't appear in Farrah's perfect piano-key smile or toned, bronzed bod. Within those cascades of blonde tendrils lay … Read More

I edited Maxim for four years, and let me tell you, we knew everything there was to know about guys. Like this: All guys really care about is girls. Our sex and relationship pieces tried to break down the great female mystery, and they were consistently the highest-rated articles in the magazine aside from, well, the pictorials. And we learned a lot ourselves. Here are nine interesting nuggets of wisdom I gleaned from my job presenting women to men. 1. Women like when you play with their hair. Not while she's in the front seat reasoning with … Read More

The amount of hair on his head may be a slightly different concern to you after seeing this...
