Whoa, talk about hitting him where it hurts. It treads on his insecurities perfectly. These are the kinds of words that will stick in his puny, womanizing, neanderthal-like brain. A part of him will always fear being unloved and alone and — worse — never living up to his potential. But that’s not all. She hits him with this next: In case he had any doubts about whether or not her was a douche, that pretty much answers the questions....

In the evening, right? After the kids are asleep, the laundry’s folded and put away, and alllll your work emails are finally answered? Nope. In fact, “whoever decided couples should have sex at 11 o’clock at night was an idiot,” says Michael J. Breus, PhD, a clinical psychologist with a speciality in sleep disorders and author of The Power of When. “You need certain hormones like testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, cortisol, adrenaline, oxytocin, and vasopressin to become sexually aroused, and all of these are actually low in the evening,” Breus explains....

If we don’t meet these standards, then we often end up feeling lesser than. “The only images of breasts I was seeing in the media were large breasts on slim women, perfectly round with hella cleavage and somehow defying gravity in a strapless bra,” she added. Most of us can probably agree that while those breasts do exist, many other types do as well. More from CafeMom: An Open Letter to My Boobs To her, her breasts represent what she’s been through in her life, including giving birth to and breastfeeding her son, and battling her eating disorder....

“About one out of five children will stutter at some point in their lives, and one out of 20 will stutter for more than six months,” says Deena Blanchard, a pediatrician in Brooklyn at Premier Pediatrics. “It will typically start around 18 to 24 months when their language skills are rapidly developing, but can crop up anytime up until they’re 5 years old.” Stuttering is defined as frequent disruptions in sound, which can manifest as part-word repetitions (“w-w-where are you going?...

Well, if you’re Victoria’s Secret model Lily Aldridge, you continue cooking in your underwear, naturally. That’s what happens in the lingerie store’s latest shoppable video ad. Aldridge is a good cook, but she’s a total klutz in the kitchen, which is something I can relate to. Gazpacho flies everywhere, a goblet full of wine breaks on her, and she even spills oil on herself. Good thing she looks so amazing in her undies, because that’s what she finally resorts to wearing as she finishes preparing her meal....

The creator also explained that Mom Tiger wears pants because they wanted to show her as “active and real” and not just in a dress and pearls all the time. Mom Tiger is even getting overalls and a tool belt in the upcoming season because she’s starting a new job as a builder. Still, if they wanted Mom Tiger to bust the “lady in a dress” stereotype, I wonder why she couldn’t just rock the no-pants look as well?...

Eloquii used to be part of The Limited, but it relaunched under its own label in 2014 and has been a favorite among celebs like Rebel Wilson, Gabby Sidibe, and Danielle Brooks ever since. If you have a fuller tummy like me, I recommend sizing up. The limited sizing for the coats would make me stay away from them, as would the snug arms. title: “We Tried Eloquii S Collection For Women With Big Hips” ShowToc: true date: “2024-10-11” author: “Wilbert Adams” Eloquii used to be part of The Limited, but it relaunched under its own label in 2014 and has been a favorite among celebs like Rebel Wilson, Gabby Sidibe, and Danielle Brooks ever since....

“What’s most important is that you look for the classic signs of readiness. When a child is starting to go into a corner to poop privately, when they’re aware of what’s happening, they can be an active helper in the potty-training department. “Some kids will verbally say, ‘Change me, I’m wet.’ That’s a good sign, or if they’re removing the diaper because it’s uncomfortable. It can be tricky now that diapers are so absorbent....

Playboy assigned me a story about how kinky you can get your girlfriend to go. And, believe me, being on assignment from Playboy gives you tons of excuses you never otherwise get. I told Jo Ann we were headed to a bar. This was true. I just neglected to mention it was a lesbian one. Although she somehow didn’t notice that I was the only man waiting in line who was born that way, the name of the establishment, projected in white letters against a dark wall in the lobby, eventually betrayed my secret....

It’s obvious she’s had a lot of work done, but Joyce, on the other hand, looks very natural. I don’t think she’s even had Botox, and come on, that’s very rare these days for an actress. So here we have two stars, side by side. One’s chosen the synthetic route, one’s let nature take its course. Which is better? Bigger photo after the jump. It’s subjective, of course. There’s no outright rule that un-plastic is better than plastic, but when you look at these two extremes cheek to cheek, it begs for a comparison....

In fact, a child is said to know the predator in many as 90 percent of sex abuse incidents, according to the Child Advocacy Center. That’s a chilling stat, but it’s also a case for doing away with the obviously outdated expression “stranger danger” and replacing it with language that will keep kids even safer. Here, experts’ top tips for talking to your children about steering clear of harm and danger — whether it presents itself in the form of a stranger or not....

And what makes keeping up with these new eye shadow palettes the most difficult is that a LOT of them look the same. We’re not saying that brands are copying each other (and sometimes their own back catalogues) — just that when you launch six new palettes a month, things start to look VERY similar. Take a look at these baffling swatches and see what we mean. But! Distortion ALSO looks very similar to two other Urban Decay palettes: Heavy Metals ($55, Sephora) and Moondust ($49, Sephora)....

If I’m honest with myself, I’ve felt this way for years, but the realization really hit me in the chest this week as I read an essay on Salon from mom Jessica Stolzberg who feels like she’s being bullied for being the stay-at-home mom at her kids’ bus stop. More From The Stir: Son Makes Stunning Tribute to Stay-at-Home Moms Everywhere (VIDEO) Stolzberg’s “bully” asks her snide questions such as “What do you do all day,” and the mother of two kids, ages 8 and 11, offers a long list of activities that keep her on her toes, from house cleaning to dog walking, volunteering in her kids’ school to appointments with the children....

If there’s one thing that irks me it’s hearing other parents, particularly autism parents, tell me their child did XYZ, “because of their autism.” Newsflash: having a disability doesn’t give your child a free pass to misbehave. And while I’m all for explaining and providing a reason for a child’s misbehavior and sometimes it is necessary to explain why their child may have done something out-of-the-ordinary, writing it off as an excuse for little Johnny’s tantrum at the park?...

I love how Catie tells Chad she got him something “I wanted us to be able to share together.” I think maybe Chad was caught off guard and maybe not paying close attention to her words, because when he sees the long, white gift box she hands him he says, “Is this my watch?” Chad, no. It is not your watch. Only one person can wear a watch at one time....

Photo by my2luvbugs Those little toddler sandboxes shaped like turtles or crabs are such a great idea. You can stick them anywhere, even in the smallest of yards or patios, and your toddler will almost always find some type of creative activity to play in them. What I didn’t realize was how expensive the sand is! We considered building our own sizable on last year, but after we priced out the sand, we scrapped the idea....

Ever since high school, once the weather becomes colder and drier, or if she’s stressed, her psoriasis flares up. More from CafeMom: Mom’s Honest Belly Photo Reminds Us to Embrace Our ‘Postpartum Glory’ She would cover her psoriasis in all different sorts of creams or foundations, or wear sweatshirts and pants if she were feeling lazy. “I remember always looking at other girls with deep envy, wishing I had their skin, wishing I had their legs so I wouldn’t have to hide all the time,” she wrote on Facebook....
