Our friendsters over at Lemondrop (actually comedienne Brooke Van Poppelen) have something they want to say and it boils down to this: "Guys, don't shave your junk."

The video is worth checking out, as is their message board; lots of strong opinions about this one. But here comes the nuts and bolts of the deal: does a dude's business really need shaving? Read: Manscaping The Land Down Under

In a strictly quid pro quo sense of things, the answer is "sure, what's good for the goose is good for the gander." But that little idiom fails to take … Read More

Couples gain weight and other qualities from each other. [TresSugar]

On average, men gain 14 pounds when their partners are pregnant. The plumper papas credit the sympathy weight to reasons like wanting to make their partners feel better about their own weight gains.

It's not only mothers who battle depression. [Limelife]

One guy sounds off on "carpet" proceedures. [Divine Caroline]

Need a dating coach? You might not want this guy. [College Humor]

Modern men (some of 'em) are embracing their feminine side as modern women (some of 'em) are becoming more masculine. (Pretty soon we'll start going to the doctor before an injury is life-threatening.) As this Yin-Yang convergence occurs, interest in his looks, clothing and grooming is surging. Nowadays nearly a one-hundredth* of the shelf space for personal care items in pharmacies is now dedicated to men. Things like shave butter, hair "product" and David Beckham have colored how [some] men now comport themselves. 

So it was pretty much inevitable that the era of women being bare "down there" would migrate … Read More

A recent British study revealed that women were found to rate men with stubble as, "tough, mature, aggressive, dominant, and masculine—and as the best romantic partners, either for a fling or a long-term relationship."Read: Stubble: The Best of Both Worlds

But this study only asked women about men who shave their faces clean of hair (or the ones can't grow any hair to begin with), the rugged man who always has a little bit of stubble and guys who sport full-on beards. It left out one of the most important facial feature a man can create, style … Read More

When we heard that someone was painting parking spots pink in an effort to ease women drivers between the yellow lines, we got to thinking. Is it female drivers who need the extra room or the overzealous man who can't keep his hands off our curves? Sure we've been known to shudder at the onset of an occasional spider but that's more for your benefit than ours. Men are always making modifications for their female counterparts. From shaving cream for women to push-ups on our knees, we feel as though you're trying to tell us something.

Female friendly parking … Read More

Ever heard the one about the woman who went through airport security with a vibrator in her bag? For whatever reason instead of packing her sex toy in her checked luggage, this woman put it in her carry-on. (Did she not check anything or just want some "alone time" on the plane? We'll never know.) When she put her bag on through x-ray machine the jostling shifted its contents and the bag started buzzing. TSA pulled her aside, opened her bag and pulled out a vibe—and the woman was stuck explaining to unhappy airport officials that it was a … Read More

Every now and again there comes a time in your life in which you realize Diddy is completely right about something. For some people it's the moment they realize Proactiv Solution is a good treatment for acne (and increasing their sexy), some people come to terms with the value of the remix versus creating new beats whole cloth, and I came to terms with ridding myself of unwanted hair. 

Though I'm fair of skin, hair and temperament, I'm a hirsute fellow. While Robin Williams and I are not identical forearm twins, for a dude with Irish-German ancestors, I do sport … Read More

YourTango's Sarah Harrison reported on Friday (December 12th) that the economy had really begun to hit women where it hurts: the crotch (Economy Influences Pubic Hair Styles). Evidently, a decent waxing (the Brazilian wax, mane) job costs roughly $50 - $80 and lasts 3 – 6 weeks. So, to stay hairless down there, it'll run ya about $720 per annum or enough to buy a pretty OK surround sound system. And over your lifetime could threaten to run in the millions (my math may be wrong).

This is the hell which the sub-prime mortgage fiasco hath … Read More

Pubic hair. We've all got it, and chances are we all maintain it somehow, whether by waxing or shaving or with a simple trim. Some women groom according to their own preference, some tidy it to their guy's predilection, still others primp for what they think the dating masses desire. According to Lisa Germinsky at Salon, our hair-down-there styling is determined, at least in part, by the economy. 

One spa owner Germinsky spoke had this to say: 

The new rule of thumb is: When you lift your leg, there shouldn't be any hair below the … Read More

I love men. There's just something about them as a population that drives me crazy. Every once in a while, I'll see a man do something, say something, or act a certain way, and I fall in love with the Y chromosome all over again.

One of the perks of having a serious boyfriend was being able to see all the wonderful 'man' things on a regular basis. From the sexy things, like watching him putting on a tie (oh yeah, it gets to me), to the sweet things, like him coming up from behind and wrapping me in … Read More
