How Often Do Girls Think Men ‘Choke the Chicken?’
(I occasionally write sex advice columns for StreetCarnage.com. This was my most recent query.)
Dear Drew: How Much Jacking is too much?
How many times a day do you think it’s normal for a dude beat his meat? I don’t want a statistic, like how often the average guy actually paddles his pickle, but what you or other girls think is normal.
Anyway, I think that, just like how guys can’t ever show girls the porn they actually shake the snake to, they also can’t be honest about how regularly they yank the crank. I want to know the discrepancy between how often girls think guys buff the banana and how often guys really butter the corn…… choke the chicken…… drain the monster……. free Willy…… OK, I’m done now.

Am I Right Ladies: It Was the Best of Sexytime, It Was the Worst of Sexytime
Every week, Gail K. scours the media for heinous examples of advertising aimed at women (or objectifying them, or are just creepy, or all three!). This week, our sassy Peggy Olson 2.0 takes on Goodies diapers, Axe body spray, and Trojan Triphoria condoms, among others. Read on, and be on the lookout for any offensive ads (which you can send in here). More »
Am I Right Ladies? : The Sound of (KY) Silence
Every week, Gail K. skewers the advertising industry’s latest campaigns targeted for ladies.
Last night I opened an Ikea credit card, spent $1300 on furniture and have no man to help put any of it together. My mother is right, I shouldn’t watch You Tube videos that make me emotional at 2 in the morning… More »
John Mayer Shuts Legs, Tumblr – Well we barely believed him when he said he was quitting blogging, so we certainly aren’t taking his word that his “white supremacist” dick is suddenly on hiatus. (via Betty Confidential)
Video: Cabury Commercial Equates Eating Chocolate With Hairy Palms
There is something vaguely off-putting about Thing from the Adam’s Family having a girlfriend, and said girlfriend being obsessed with chocolate. Is it just us, or is there some sort of underlying analogy in the Cadbury commercial between eating chocolate and partaking in other self-pleasuring activities? More »
Breaking: The Internet Obsessed With Young Chicks With Pics, Claims Gawker Boss
Whoops, that should read “Nick Denton‘s guide to viral posts: Chicks over dudes, youth over age, and Photoshopped pics.” This comes from an internal memo that the Gawker Media chief sent around to his employees recently, warning them that there are “There’s too much news on the web; and way too little explanation.” (So wait…why did we need all those investigative blogger/reporters again?)

On Why Women Can’t Be Expected To Take Their Husbands’ Last Name
Over at our sister site The Gloss, a male columnist offers some reasons “Why I’d Be Offended If A Woman Didn’t Take My Last Name.” The post’s author and I are the same age, and I can attest to the fact that he’s a rather nice and respectable gentleman (Hey, Michael). So my counterpoint has nothing to do with women’s rights or any staunch notion of feminism. It’s just a matter of the times we live in. And convenience. More »

Off The Market: Women, Men And Money
Pauline Millard, a writer and real-estate broker in Manhattan, has encountered a troubling disparity in how young men and women handle their finances and pay rent. Her findings, in today’s Off The Market:
Last week I rented an apartment to a 22-year-old guy who was new to Manhattan. After the lease signing he lamented about having to use his father as a guarantor. I told him not to feel badly about it, he was fresh out of college, after all. It was par for the course.
“True,” he said. “But I don’t want to have to use him the next time I move.”
In all likelihood, he probably won’t. If there’s one thing I’ve noticed after renting apartments in Manhattan for a few years, is that men become financially independent light years before women. In 5 years time my young male client will be employed and have some money squirreled away so that if he needs to move, or buy a car or whatever, he’ll be able to. His female counterpart, most likely, will not. I will likely be on the phone with her father about signing a guarantor form. More »
Good News: Our Boobs Are Getting Bigger!
When first reading this article in the Sydney Morning Herald about the extreme increase in bust size over the last 10-15 years, our first thought was “Yeah, obesity is a problem.” But apparently that’s not with this article about: All over the world, women are finding that their body shapes are changing from that of their mothers, and it’s not all due to an overall weight increase.
There’s also the fact that hormones in our food make young women develop at… More »
Mel Gibson: Now Hating Jews, Women, And Black People – Jesus Christ, Mel, shut your mouth.

Memoir: Winging It
When I first read the ad, I was convinced that it was an attempt to recruit me into a prostitution ring. The wording was: Are you beautiful? Upbeat? Outgoing? Do you like to help your male friends meet women? Come work as a wingwoman for our dating coach service. $35/hr.
However, because I had just moved to New York City and could no longer stomach a diet solely of ramen noodles, I sent in a very long response stating that… More »
