One Less Woof In WeHo
Wednesday February 17, 2010 11:58 AM

WeHo may be barking up the wrong tree focusing on animal companions as individual beings, not as commercial goods in an effort to curb puppy mills and kitty factories by merely 'hoping' other districts will follow suit and ban pet sales as well. But what will this restriction really accomplish? Many people don't want shelter or rescue companions for reasons such as the potential poor health of the animals or simply to avoid the depressing experience of going to 'the pound.'

Jane Don't Herds Sheep In The Sheets
In response to "Men's Health calls this an article?"   Wednesday January 27, 2010 7:44 PM

We're not robots...yet. There is no one size fits all bedroom-banter protocol. Men and women are basically hardwired for miscommunication no matter what room we’re in, so it comes as no surprise that many of us are lost in translation especially in the bedroom. Each of us has his/her own preferences for what goes on behind closed doors. And some of us like those doors left open.   People who waste time talking about what not to talk about are falling on deaf ears here. I take issue... Login to read more »

D-Bag of the Year
Sunday January 17, 2010 8:46 PM

The "D-Bag of the Year" award goes to a man who thinks he's the box the game came in.  He's a smooth operator who talks to multiple girls at a time like he's running a switchboard. Sloppy Joe's in the kitchen feeding lines to the ladies. One size fits all and all sizes fit the master puppeteer who strings his marionette maidens madly into an illusion of love.     Because this year's "D-Bag" winner has no idea he's even been nominated (nor what for) I regret to inform there...

Teddy Suede says: Tell me about it! I'm new to the "scene" after being married for 10 years, and let me tell you from what I've seen. 99% of the guys I meet out there are total tools! Most work their blackberry like it's going out of style. They have 600 facebook friends 80% female. Total players. Have no desire to actually have a relationship. No wonder most girls assume the guys a jerk off. Most are! And it seriously kills it for the 1% (which I think I'm a part of - I guess that's debatable) who really ARE good guys. But let's be honest. The girls aren't much better. 99% of them are wack jobs as well. Most are either 1) caught up on their ex's (which they'll never have - it's over!) or 2) they are just BROKEN. I see why though...When I see the guys they have to choose from. The good ones are few and far between.

Flirting with Intentions vs. Flirting for Attention
Saturday January 16, 2010 2:49 PM

How can you tell if she's looking for Mr. Right or Mr. Right Now? Solid attraction is established. You don't want to take your eyes off of each other. The common ground shared is strong. The ease of communication either makes or breaks the chemistry of long-term intentions vs. short-term attention. Long-term intentions: She may tell you her intentions up front so she isn't wasting either of your time. She's open and actively engaged in getting to know you, asking questions and making an effor... Login to read more »

What She Means By...

  "You're a really nice guy" Gentlemen, Welcome to the friend zone, if anything. She's not physically attracted to you. You're cute but after you opened your mouth a buzzer went off and Game Over flashed before her eyes. Not to mention, you kiss like a Saint Bernard in heat. Let's cut through the chase (since there won't be one anyway) you’re an awesome 'activity partner.' It's a backhanded compliment often served best over coffee or a brisk hike. Chemistry can't be forced. ... Login to read more »

Here Kitty Kitty...
In response to "Bored this Christmas? Go Tiger hunting!"   Tuesday January 12, 2010 1:13 PM

So I caught the 'tail' end of a vj's radio plug for a skin care product yesterday claiming "the serum will make your face smoother than one of Tiger's texts." IMHO the media frenzy surrounding the situation is on par with the economy's state of being. We're walking down a fairway that is anything but fair. The sand traps are set like field mines and fear is leading us further into the woods. There's only so much hiding one can do before the ultimate truth is exposed. Whether or not we have all ...

Casual Sex vs. Emotional Consequences
Thursday January 07, 2010 3:36 AM

Researchers at The University of Minnesota did a study on the emotional consequences of casual sex based on sampling the opinions of 1,300 students ages 18-24. This random sample of young adults showed a general lack of emotions related to casual sex. Having spent 3 years (ages 17-20) living in the Midwest these 'sexpert findings' do not shock me. It gets bitter cold in Minnesota and 'indoor activities' of all kinds (including casual sex) are needed for comfort. I mean really, how many times ... Login to read more »

Deal Or No Deal

The dealer seems nice enough at first. Lets you win hands for awhile. Sees you love the adrenaline of taking risks. Feeds off of your excitement.You gain a false sense of security that keeps you coming back to the same table. The dealer is an expert; has used every move, worked every angle. They always have the upper hand and move quickly with exact precision. The best opponents challenge the dealer by mirroring their game. The weakest ones fall victim to the dirtiest play in the book.

How Many Ex's Does It Take?
Tuesday November 24, 2009 6:09 PM

How many ex's does it take to get to the center of the wedding chapel? A girlfriend of mine was in a relationship for well over a decade before her boyfriend decided to pull the trigger and dump her for a 'trollbag train wreck.' (** the extra strength version of a 'trashbag') I was shocked at how quickly he rebounded with such a serious downgrade. It's one thing to have so much history and then just cut ties, but how can you replace someone who keeps the mail in order with someone who looks... Login to read more »

Delaney says: Well fucking put Ben!
Nov 25, 2009

Ben says: The answer to your question in the title is simple, as many as it takes for you (the ladies) to mature, take responsibility for your actions, act like a respectable woman, get past all your mommy or daddy issues and actually commit yourself to finding a man with character, integrity and morals. I wasted years with the wrong girls and it was my fault for picking them. Within a month of deciding that I was going to find a mature woman that was my age I met my wife. It really is that simple.

What to Expect When Not Expecting
Thursday November 19, 2009 5:30 PM

It can be easy to meet single, quality people who have no expectations. It can be hard to invest quality time and not develop feelings for that person, finding one's self expecting more but receiving less. Why is it that appearing too interested at first can be a turn off? It starts with the little things, such as how quickly someone calls or texts. Pace setting is important to examine from the beginning. Is the attention giving/receiving at the same level? Women typically say we're attracte... Login to read more »

Too Much Information (TMI) - Where do you draw the line?
Tuesday November 17, 2009 5:11 PM

I have a fairly high TMI tolerance before I have to break out the ear muffs. Over the years my boundaries and thresholds have definitely changed. I know I'm experiencing TMI when I get a sick feeling in my stomach. TMI is like a pie-eating contest; Too much too quickly and bring on the nausea! I've grown closer to some people through excessive sharing. It really depends on my comfort level and, often times, history. I don't necessarily have hard set rules on when it's too soon to share certai... Login to read more »

Not the Sharpest Tools In the Shed
Thursday November 12, 2009 5:17 PM

It’s painful to watch drunk people trying to hit on less drunk or sober people at a bar. Guys I’ve seen some interesting techniques before, but it seems to me there has been a shift in generic cliché openers such as "Hi, what's your name? Do you come here often?" to straight tapping on the shoulder, pointing at the woman's glass and asking the bartender "What is she drinking?" By the time the woman realizes Mr. Wrong is buying her a round he's ambushing her free hand with an a... Login to read more »

Post-Marital Houdini Lovin'
In response to "The case of the disappearing sex for married men"   Friday November 06, 2009 5:56 PM

I haven't tied the knot yet but I'm surely not tongue tied in giving my 2 cents here. Ahhhh the disappearance of 'goods and services' after the honeymoon is over. Indeed a shame. Nothing says "I'll love you forever" more than the immediate absence of the LOVE part! I can understand couples who go right into baby making and experience this around the 2nd trimester, but what's up with all you non-prego newlyweds?

If you haven't been there there you may have heard, read, or seen stories about the Playboy Mansion.

The ratio is crazeeee fun though for the guys. just being there is execiting enough. I go there to just network(REALLY)... I also get a kick, at seeing soooo many "Goldiggers" in action.. Girls dont PAY.. Guys entry start at $1000 & up to $15000 for a cabana. I usually go VIP Bottle service for $5000 (that i split for a few buddies) overall is a fun time. just make sure you have a driver waiting for you at the lot.

NO SOLICITING
Wednesday November 04, 2009 1:54 AM

It's been a long time since I've received a telemarketer phone call or any other unwelcome solicitation until tonight. I had just stepped out of the shower when I heard a series of knocks on my door. I grabbed a towel and ran to the peep hole. It was a kid, no more than 14, with a clipboard. I called out "Who is it?" No answer. I shouted a second time "WHO IS IT?" Dead silence but the kid just stood there. As I stared through the straw-sized lookout I... Login to read more »

irene says: It sounds like a much more serious situation than a child soliciting. That reminds me of "The Professional", where the lead assassin uses Natalie Portman (child) to knock on his target's door to get them to open it up. Ive gotten knocks on my door as well. If Im not expecting anyone, I don't answer it at all. My friends and family always call me when they are at the gate. Keep yourself safe!

Two 30-something men were ahead of me in line to get coffee. Man #1 was blatantly single and scanning the room for any potential female counterparts. Man #1  "I'm telling you, summers are for singles and winters are for wifeys.
