When it comes to the bedroom – lefties have more fun

Left-handed people are notoriously clumsy, mainly because they live in a right-hand world and devices aren’t designed with the left-handed person in mind.

Lefties make up about 10% of the world’s population, so it’s only natural that there will be things that just aren’t made to work well for southpaws.

You’re over 21 years old and still a virgin? That’s perfectly normal

A common theme in today’s pop culture is how concerned kids are with when is the “right time” to lose their virginity.

Entire movies have been made on the subject – Tom Cruise’s Losin’ It is probably not on the higher end of his personal accomplishments, we’re fairly certain.  But what once was a Very Special Episode of Blossom or Family Ties, or one of those mandatory Afterschool Specials that we all rushed home to watch together – it’s now become almost a punchline in any major sitcom or movie being made today.

How to French Kiss

Kissing is one of those “first memories” that everyone carries around with them.

Take a moment, and think back to your First Kiss.  Is it something you think back fondly of? Or regretfully?

Was it kinda romantic, like in 16 Candles?  Or was it in the back of a coat closet while all your friends were outside chanting “kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss!”?

Some first kisses come with a ton of anxiety – what’s it like, are we doing it right?

Look, everyone has to start somewhere, and the First of anything is really not going to be performed with any spectacularity.

Women will make the most money in these six US states

It’s been often said that women earn anywhere from 60%-80% of what a man’s salary is in the exact same position.
