breasts
Embracing your sexuality—even when hairless, throwing up and left ravaged by a mastectomy.
It's a common perception that only older women get breast cancer—old enough that they don't really care if they ever have sex again. And boobs? Whatever, take 'em… They already nursed their kids and the ta-tas are just getting saggy anyway. Right?
Wrong! I'm 26, and I have cancer in my breast. And no matter what age, women still want to be treated like the gorgeous creatures we are, even when hairless, probably throwing up and left ravaged by a mastectomy.
When I discovered my lump at 24, I was nearly scoffed out of a male breast cancer specialist's … Read More
But would they prefer looking at butts if given the option?
A new scientific study has just "proven" what every female on the planet already knows: men like looking at breasts.
What's more, men don't just like looking at breasts, but nearly half of them (47 percent) will look at a woman's breasts before he looks at her face, and will look at them longer than any other body part.
The researchers behind this study, housed at New Zealand's University of Wellington, came to their conclusions by having their male subjects look at six pictures of the same woman. In each picture, the woman's face was the same. The size of … Read More
Being small in the bust isn't all bad. In fact, a petite rack comes with some big advantages.
Alan Wieder became obsessed with his penis in 2005. Convinced that it was the smallest in the world, he spent the entire year poring over penis-size statistics, measuring his manhood (up to 20 times a day), and yes, even trying to increase his size through questionable contraptions.Size, Apparently, Matters More To Guys
Four years later, after going through lots of therapy and penning a memoir about his neurotic obsession entitled Year of the c**k, Wieder is finally at peace with his size. In fact, he's even able to joke about it. He recently published a list of the "13 … Read More
He loves them, and they should bring you joy, too!
Women's Health has a great feature this month about bringing your breasts into sex. The piece points out that we talk about breasts all the time, but we're usually talking about the non-sexy aspects of the boob—cancer and breast-feeding for example. But boobs are also a sex organ, and WH lists a bunch ways to enjoy your breasts plus some interesting facts. Here are the best of their tips, plus a few of our own.
The light touch. Have him run his fingers just above the skin on your chest and on your breasts without touching your … Read More

This weekend we received a lot of great comments ranging from infidelity to boob exercises. Although sadly, they are not occurring at the same time. I loved this comment by user julie43, who weighted in on the hefty subject of infidelity. She writes
I found out 10 weeks ago that my husband of 5 years has had no less that 4 affairs. This has been devastating to me. However, as stupid as this sounds, this is a man I still love. I asked him if he loved any of these women; his answer was "Oh GOD no!" After I … Read More
A company is exposed for making faulty claims about a bra promoting breast health.
As if us ladies don't have enough to worry about when we underwear shop, Intimate Health—a "health-inducing" underwear company—attempted to say all our favorite bras trap toxins in our breasts.
What???!?!
Yes, you read that correctly. Your favorite push-up may do wonders for a low-cut shirt, but did you know those constricting straps were secretly ushering in abnormal cells? According to the company's website, normal bras place too much pressure on your chest's lymph nodes, which "retard the body's natural ability to eliminate toxic substances that gather in the breast tissue."
Uh oh.
In response, the company—owned by … Read More
Men's magazine loses $200,000 in plastic boobs.
If you're planning to take a beach vacation in the next couple of weeks, in addition to watching out for jellyfish, be on the lookout for plastic breasts!
According to The Australian, Men's magazine Ralph was shipping $200,000 of fake mammaries from Beijing to its headquarters down under, but when the container arrived in Sydney it was empty! Where are the 130,000 pairs of plastic pectoral pillows? No one knows.
The magazine was planning to give the fake tits as free gifts with their January issue, but, alas, if the breasts aren't found within 48 hours … Read More
Your guide to unwrapping your packages this holiday season.
We usually don't associate the brrrr!-ful winter months with boobs hanging out of our clothes (that would be summertime!) but the Daily Mail points out a tricky sartorial trend: lots of cleavage with the holiday party dresses.
Especially in such sweatpants-and-T-shirt times, us single girls relish the holiday party for the chance to show off some cleavage and reel in a randy fellow. It's been a long time since our Sexy Police Woman / Sexy Nurse / Sexy Mailman costume at Halloween, after all. In northern climates, we're wearing down jackets from late September until late March, … Read More
A guy explains how men check women out.
Women in a state of undress tend to think about their "wobbly bits" as Bridget Jones called them. This probably includes one or more of the "trouble area trifecta" spots: stomach, thighs or butt.
Men, on the other hand, skip the wobbles and let their gazes go almost immediately to their favorite parts, whether a woman's clothed or naked. Truth Merchants' "Ask A Guy" contributor tells us if a man's into the booty, he'll probably start checking out a woman at her feet and work his way up. If the chest's more his thing, he might look … Read More
When it comes to going braless, my boyfriend and I have decidedly different takes.
Today Lemondrop brings us word of another bra-related fashion trend: going braless. Erin, writing for Lemondrop, brings up the point, ahem, that when your breasts get cold your nipples get hard, and "while having your nips in salute mode may be considered flirtatious in some corners, I prefer to leave my headlights off, thank you very much."
This is indeed a problem for those of us with, shall we say, strong nipples. This Love Buzzer frequently goes braless, which is made easier by my modest breasts. However I've found that my boyfriend does not appreciate my freedom … Read More
