Sure, odds are your husband or partner weighed in on your decision to stay home with your kids. Still, there’s a difference between saying “Whatever makes you happy, honey” and how men secretly feel but not dare say, at least to your face. We you’re curious to know how men really feel — both the bad and the good — so we asked them, with a promise of anonymity in order to procure their most private thoughts....
Of course, breastfeeding shouldn’t be offensive for anyone else either. And you should have the right to feed your baby at your mother-in-law’s house, at the beach, and even at Target. This is all a given. And while I don’t see anything sexual about posting photos of yourself breastfeeding on your favorite social networking site, I also have no idea why you would actually do it. Breastfeeding is an intimate act, so why are you sharing it online?...
My husband set an example of how to treat women: always with respect, without undermining my ability to handle anything myself. Affection was something we gave freely, even though he was raised in a household that seemed to ration physical love. Then two years ago our daughter was born, and though I didn’t change much (aside from splurging on frilly dresses), the men in my house were affected greatly by this new little lady in our midst....
Your husband is in heaven. Paradise. Utopia. But … what if he’s not? What if suddenly you’re the one with the teenager’s sex drive and he’s rocking the libido of a 98-year-old heart patient? It happens a lot, and it sucks. A lot. I spoke to a couple of moms and a couple of experts to get the lowdown on why pregnant couples aren’t getting down. There are lots of reasons why your partner might by shying away from sex, despite your best efforts....
“Time-outs were originally a way for kids to take a break, think about what they did, maybe even have remorse for it, and settle down and return,” says Tovah P. Klein, Ph.D, author of How Toddlers Thrive. “They don’t make sense at all for young children.” The two biggest reasons to skip time-outs? They’re not healthy for your child’s emotional well-being (now or later), and they’re not effective in terms of curbing “bad” behavior....
But after that initial “stars in your eyes” honeymoon phase wears off, it can be all too easy to fall into a comfortable routine … which if not careful could lead to unhappy partners and at worst divorce. Some of this transition is normal, but sometimes the relationship can get stale or humdrum, especially when kids, tough financial decisions, and difficult in-laws are involved. But it’s important to avoid turning into roommates instead of partners, even after so many years together....
In 2005, the U.S. Food & Drug Administration made non-prescription contact lenses illegal, yet it’s easy for people to get their hands on them online or in specialty retailers, and especially Halloween stores. Since the “one size fits all” lenses bought from novelty stores aren’t tailored and fitted for each individual person the way contacts from a professional eye doctor are, they can damage the wearer’s eyes in a variety of ways and cause cornea scratches, infection, an allergic reaction — and possibly even blindness....
So then you get these emails from dudes on online dating sites who are 10 years older than you — who probably don’t want kids since they are sending your barely-working ovaries an email — and if you take a look at their age range, the vast majority of them want a woman 5, 10, even 15 years younger than themselves! For WHAT, I ask? Unless your concern is kids, what right have you, Mr....
And boy did they ever talk about it. SPOILER ALERT. In an episode that was all about fear, a man terrified of showing his face in public couldn’t have been a better fit. So why wouldn’t he go outside (or get out of the car at Seattle Grace Hospital)? Because HPV warts had left him looking like that tree man that they make Discovery Channel specials about. The show’s title, “Superfreak,” just highlights how scary the whole thing is for the sufferer....
No big deal, right? Yeah … well, maybe you should see some photos first. Let’s just say, the seller is “highly motivated” to sell but couldn’t be bothered to stage the house. Maybe you should sit down. So, is it me? Or are the words “YOU WILL DIE” scrawled on the wall in blood along with bloody handprints? I mean, haha, obviously it’s just red paint. I know that! But yeesh....

So, without further ado, here’s a breakdown of the most disturbing and dangerous things customers and researchers have found in makeup, both fake and the real deal.
