Wise Guys: What’s the Appeal of the Money Shot?

Advice from three of our guy friends. This week they answer the following: “Why are money shots so prevalent in porn? What’s the appeal? And is this something that doesn’t translate into real life or would most guys like to see their own money shots more?” Straight Single Guy (Colin Adamo): If it weren’t for […]

Wise Guys – Do Men Differentiate Between Sex and Makin' Love?

photo by geishaboy500 Advice from three of our guy friends. This week they answer the following: “Do guys differentiate between having sex and makin’ love?“ Straight Married Guy (David): A rose by any other name… would still be fucking. Simply a matter of semantics, two sides of the same slippery coin. Actually, bad analogy, since […]

Comment of the Week: Vaya con Dios, Bro!

photo by SteveMakesNoise In response to last week’s “Your Call,” in which a reader admitted to getting caught — four times! — sending flirty texts to women other than his girlfriend, Slartibartfast had this to say. It’s not that deep, it just made us laugh! (Which we know is kind of mean, considering this repentant […]

Comments of the Week: Three F's vs Three C's

photo by comedy_nose We posted an article recently about cohabitation — it contained suggestions on how to avoid the transition from boyfriend-girlfriend to roommates who spoon and fart a lot once you move in. And it set off quite a debate in the comments section about what exactly men vs women (or is it men […]

Wise Guys: Can Men Spot Fake Orgasms?

Advice from three of our guy friends. This week they answer the following: “Do most guys think they can tell a faked orgasm from a real one? Do they even care? Are they just happy to be blissfully ignorant? Like they’d rather believe a faked orgasm than know she didn’t really have one? And if […]

Comment of the Week: Let’s Kill the Cow That Gave the Milk for Free

We know this comment appeared last week, but we are in such hearty agreement that we decided it deserved mentioning this week anyway. Amen, Madamoiselle L! There is NOTHING I HATE as much as the STUPID, PATRIARCHAL, MISOGYNIST bullshit “analogy” “He won’t buy the cow if he can get the milk for free.” Those who […]

Getting By with a Little Help from a Sportsgasm

photo by Todd Huffman When Craig Venezia, the man behind the Faking a Sportsgasm blog, wrote to us suggesting that our sites had a lot in common, we were wary. On the one hand, we love that he makes fun of macho dudes who slobber and moan over balls and hard pucks. But on the […]

Comment of the Week: A Great Date Mistaken for Emasculation

photo by Albany Tim We couldn’t believe this crazy story from BCofUIMhere in response to our Wise Guys Post “Can’t Women Ask Men Out?” It made us so thankful that we live in more enlightened times. Which then got us thinking, Do we really? The last time I asked a guy out was probably before […]

Wise Guys: Do Men Have Multiple Orgasms?

Advice from three of our guy friends. This week they answer the following: “How common are multiple orgasms among men?” Straight Single Guy (Colin Adamo): This is one of those things that really mellow, grey-ponytailed guys that meditate daily, do kegels constantly, and have been practicing tantra since the late ’70s tell you is possible […]

Men Are from Mars, Blah, Blah, Blah…

Oh, isn’t it fun to talk about how men are from Mars and women are from Venus? It’s like we’re practically two different species! And once almighty “Science” comes down from on high and explains these differences as natural, well then you better suit up because the inter-galactic, inter-species war of the sexes is going […]

Comment of the Week: Learn to Love Nice Guys

Comments of the Week: Do It When Everyone's Ready

Comment of the Week: When HE Puts Out Too Soon

photo by e.esders Just to prove that it’s not only women who fall hard on a first date, get swept up by their libido, and never hear from said date again… I met this beautiful gal on a dating website. We had a second date, had a great time, spent the entire day together. At […]

The Man Your Man Could Smell Like

This new Old Spice ad is genius. Check out this Twit interview with the creators of the ad for the play-by-play of how they did it.  The commercial pokes fun at both men and women (refreshing!), which means it appeals to both men and women and thus doubles Old Spice’s potential buying market. Since being […]

The Super Bowl Ad Superlatives (in the Love and Sex Category)

BEST OVERALL: Dove Men+Care’s “The Journey to Comfort” At last, a commercial that celebrates manhood without being sexist, stupid or beer-related! It’s basically a mini-movie crammed into 45-seconds (seriously, try counting the number of scenes they had to shoot) that follows one Everyman’s life from birth to adulthood by highlighting the big moments as well […]
