ABC’s “Cougar Town” is a new show starring Courtney Cox, who plays a recently divorced woman who re-enters the dating scene that’s filled with younger men. The show takes place near Sarasota, Fla., and the title sequence opens with a sign that reads “Welcome to Cougar Town,” referring to a place where attractive, single older women date younger men. While the name of this television town is completely fictional, there are real towns where cougars live. In case you were wondering, here is a list of the top five cougar towns in the United States. 1. Austin, Texas About Austin: As a college... 

If only network TV would lead with this news: according to a University of Minnesota study, “hooking up” — casual sex with more than one partner — is NOT in itself damaging to one’s psychological health. Just like the “free love” generation before us, millennials figured this out long before the men in white coats arrived. For some, hooking up is a way to explore their sexuality without a relationship commitment. For others it’s a form of dating — a good relationship requires a good sexual relationship, so why not cut to the chase? But —... 

I am positive everyone of us have received that look from the opposite sex, or on the contrary, been looked right over. The tough part is to decide whether they are just playing hard-to-get, or if they just aren’t interested in you. The first thing you should make sure is that you actually like the person, not just really want to be pleasured to the full extent of your fantasy with them. If they don’t laugh and your poor attempts at jokes, it is most likely a waste of jokes that could go a lot further with someone else. Possibly even landing you in the sack with a person who’s... 

The majority of people in the world are arguably “nice”… but do they have what it takes to be a good friend? 1. Humility - Perhaps the most important thing to look for in a friend is their ability to say “I’m sorry” when they have wronged you. No friendship can survive over time without apologies when someone has been hurt. Without humility, relationships quickly turn into a pile of bitterness and competition. Along with apologies, it’s also important that your friend is willing to forgive you. 2. Generosity - Even the most humble of friends will start... 

1. Tattoos – No, there are no exceptions. Tattoos are one of those things that look hot on a small minority of drop-dead gorgeous movie stars like Angelina Jolie, but in real life, less than 1% of women can actually pull it off in any form. (Variations include girls that have watched way too many Evanescence music videos, girls that had an ex-boyfriend die in a surfing accident and have branded his name onto their wrist, hipster bitches, white trash skanks, wannabe porn stars, etc.) 2. Daddy Issues - This rears its head in all sorts of ways, so proceed with caution. Unfortunately, this is... 

So, I was thinking today… Why do people even bother with one word Txts. They are a waste of time for both parties…. Why would anyone send a one word txt and not bother carrying on the conversation? Is the beginning of a new type of communication? One where everyone can answer with telecommunication. No, I think the true answer lies with the people sending those horrible txts. I believe they want the responding party to ask a more provocative question/statement to catch them off guard and spice up there typical day, or they want you to leave them alone. But, ff they take the time to... 

Let’s face it: Valentine’s Day was designed for women. Since most guys could care less about mushy cards, candles, chocolates and flowers, women need to think a little differently when romancing their men. This Valentine’s Day, keep a few candles burning for yourself if you’d like, but if you really want him to feel the love and know that you appreciate him, here are some ways to turn your home into a guy-friendly romantic escape. Have a clean apartment and get a baby sitter While most guys could care less about candles and soft music, they do appreciate a clean house.  Pick up your things... 

For most of us, going away to college is probably the first time we are leaving home for an extended period of time. And this means saying goodbye, albeit temporarily, to places and people who formed an important part of our lives. Sometimes this involves breaking away from a high school sweetheart, a move that is synonymous with tears and promises to stay in touch and visit often no matter what. While we’ve heard it being said that absence makes the heart grow fonder, there’s also the fact that for some of us, when it’s out of sight, it’s out of mind. So if you’re going away to college... 

Textual Intercourse, a new book by Beob I’m certainly not one of these people who pushes their chest out and proudly says, “Oh I can’t be arsed with texting, if I’ve got something to say then I’ll just ring ‘em!”, as if they should receive some sort of medal for being so utterly, uncreative.  These people (usually men) have seriously missed the point if they think the only thing the text message is to be used for, is practical purposes.  These very people could really benefit from discovering the joys of putting thumb to keypad and getting those pent up feelings out in the open... 

Have you ever wondered how much of the things your man says are the real truth? It’s interesting that a lot of times, to keep a relationship working, men often feel that the best thing to do is lie. Strangely, women often know that what their man is telling them is a pure lie and yet they still prefer to hear it. So why do men lie? What are the reasons they feel the need to lie to their partners? 1. To make their woman happy. Let’s take an example. The majority of women are not happy with their bodies. What is a man suppose to answer when asked “how do I look?” We all know... 

I am shedding light on the sustained periods of personal “growth” we as women get thrown into like gladiators left to fend for themselves with no advanced notice or appropriate armor or weaponry. I am talking about the week you were let go from work, found out your man was getting cozy with the bartender at your favorite watering hole (how dare he make me switch bars), your credit card interest rate just about doubled and your pms seemed to have kicked in about two weeks two early. WARNING: Do not down all the spirits in your liquor cabinet, much less ingest all items in your pantry... 

Harold and Maude. I don’t know if you’ve seen this “classic film” but if not, let me save you the time and sum it up for you. Teenage boy obsessed with going to funerals and faking his own suicide meets 80 year-old woman also obsessed with death. They steal a tree and next thing you know they are sleeping together. Then she dies for real and he decides to stop faking his own death. A real knee slapper, that one. This is cougar-ville taken to a whole new level. A scene from the classic film, "Harold and Maude." In keeping with the age discrepancy theme, a new movie is out called...
