Botox for Breast Lifts

If you thought Botox (Clostridium botulinum toxin type A) was going away, you were wrong. Doctors are trying to find new ways to use this “wonder” product and some plastic surgeons think they’ve got the new best thing: breast enhancement via Botox.
According to news reports out of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) annual meeting, injecting Botox into the pectoralis minor muscle in the chest, causes the back muscles to lift the breast, giving the appearance of a breast lift. It only works, however, on small-small breasts (A or B cups).
The technique also helps fight against slouching, say doctors …read more

Book Review: Seductive Delusions – Everything you ever wanted to know about STD’s and were afraid to ask…

Did you know that in the United States alone, there are 19 million new sexually transmitted disease (STD) cases diagnosed each year?
Scary numbers.
But most people will look at those numbers and say, ‘yeah, but that won’t happen to me. I’m safe. My behavior is not risky.”
Unfortunately, it could easily happen to you. All it really takes to get a sexually transmitted disease is one instance of unprotected sex.
Which is why I suggest that anyone who is sexually active or intending to become sexually active read Seductive Delusions: How Everyday People Catch STD’s by Jill Grimes MD.
It’s an easy to read …read more

Sexbolt Saturday: Asexual? You Are Not Alone.

Remember Claire, the 105 year old who said ‘no sex was the secret to longevity’. Well, it turns out that she’s not alone in being disinterested in sex. Seems that that are a whole lot of people (research has the number at 1% of the population) out there who classify themselves as asexual – as having no interest in sex and feeling no sexual attraction.
It’s a concept that most of us have difficulty understanding. We ask: How could someone be totally disinterested in sex? Don’t they want to make connections and have relationships with others? Don’t they want someone to …read more

Casual Cigar, Serious Side Effects

Casual Cigar, Serious Side Effects

So you enjoy the occasional cigar, do you? Well, if you’re in the camp that believes cigarette smoking is a no-no, but the occasional cigar is no biggie, think again. A recent article in Men’s Health lists the following as possible side effects to cigar smoking:

* Frequent daily cigar smoking may double a man’s risk of throat, laryngeal, nose, esophageal and lung cancers, compared with those who don’t smoke.
* Even a few puffs can raise your heart rate and blood pressure.
* You are also at risk of exacerbating existing breathing problems like asthma.

With cold weather fast-approaching in the bulk of the U.S., methinks there are going to be plenty of seats heating up in cars across the nation. After all, that’s one of those luxuries we doled out big money for when we all purchased our gas-guzzling SUVs, right? Exactly.
However…
If you’re looking to add to your brood, have the man in your family rethink firing up their seat. Why? Preliminary studies have found that 90 minutes of warming his buns on a heated car seat created a significant increase in a guy’s scrotal temperature (makes sense). And because …read more

Guess What? Antibacterial Soap is NOT All That!

Guess What? Antibacterial Soap is NOT All That!

As the kiddies head back to school (and back to scads of germ-acquiring opportunities) resist the urge to splurge on antibacterial soaps. Though the sheer impact of their title may make a weary parent squee with anticipation of heading off the beasties, antibacterial soaps are really no better than just plain soap and water.
True, many brands claim superiority, but the fact of the matter is that most of these drugstore soaps do not contain enough of the active ingredient triclosan to make them effective. In fact, in studies, families who used antibacterial soaps averaged the same number of germs on …read more

Called “The Mermaid”, all you need is a flat surface, a pillow and a dollop of flexibility. The rest is up to you.
Looks like good stuff, all. Enjoy. And have a Sexy Saturday.
