Chocolate, flowers, and cards: Oh my! Why we give these gifts on Valentine's Day.
We stuff ourselves during Thanksgiving, wear ugly sweaters come Christmastime, and ring in the New Year with a champagne toast. That's just how it's done. Similarly, ever since we were in pre-kindergarten, cards, flowers, chocolate and—depending on your luck—that One Special Person have marked Valentine's Day. While the days of those little cardboard Disney-princess Valentine's Day cards may be over (remember Martin's "I choo-choo-choose you" for Lisa on The Simpsons?), there are still traditions we practice. But do you know why Valentine's Day is the way it is? Like 'em or loathe 'em, here we explain the holiday's most popular … Read More

However, according to a new study by two Rochester psychologists published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, it would behoove me to stock up on red when I've got a hot date (or would like one).
Men, they say, not only feel more amorous toward women when in red but are more likely to shell out extra money when with them. To make it even sweeter, they are completely … Read More
Red is sexy, a thin line between love & hate, and the genetics of sexuality.
Do you want a guy to ask you out for a nice dinner? According to The Frisky, you should wear red. In a study from the University of Rochester it's been shown that dudes are more interested in a Lady In Red. How about that? Eric Clapton knew what he was talking about.
Speaking of outfits, MSNBC thinks you can explore sexual fantasies via your Halloween costume. Dang, what does it say if you dress up as the Joker? (Check out our LoveFeed for ideas of your Halloween costume).
Maybe they were involved in a … Read More
