So, let’s say you’re a woman, and you’d like to be paid more for your job. You’re obviously not going to go in and ask for a raise unprepared, so you’ll have to get ready. What’s the first thing you should do? Review your work and compile a list of accomplishments that show how good you are at your job? Wrong. Add up all the times you’ve saved your boss’s ass? Sorry, wrong again.
Nope. You need to douche. Preferably with Summer’s Eve Feminine Wash.

It’s been quite some time since The Cleavers came to us once a week to share their life lessons and morals. Over 50 years, in fact. A lot has changed since 1957. Segregation was ended, women are prevalent (and kicking ass) in the workplace and the typical family ideal seems to have fallen by the wayside. Some would argue the merits of moving past the stuffy, goody-two-shoes, so-sweet-it-makes-your-teeth-hurt family moment, but I have to ask: is it really so terrible?
Sure, Wally and The Beav got into “trouble” on a regular basis and by the end of 30 minutes, they were sitting down to a home cooked meal and chuckling about the days’ hijinks. That’s not reality, is it? Though it seems unlikely that this was happening in the average white-picket-fence-2.5-kids household, there are some elements to it that aren’t all that bad.

I’m on the brink of a quarter life crisis. (This does exist; the self-help section at my local Borders tells me so.) As my 25th birthday nears, I’m reassessing my goals and plans. I won’t deny I’m not where I thought I’d be when I walked across Alumni Park to accept my college diploma several years ago. I’m currently experiencing a second adolescence. And it’s not because I’m constantly being told I look like I’m 16.
And according to the New York Times, if you’re a 20-something, you’re experiencing it too. The article notes some key milestones that mark the “transition to adulthood”: graduating college, leaving the parental nest and buying a place of your own, financial independence, marrying and popping out some babies. However, those in my age range are taking longer to hit those milestones, if we’re working towards them at all.

SPOILER ALERT!: First and foremost I warn all who have not seen Scott Pilgrim VS. The World or read its comic counter parts, I will be using spoilers to get my point across; if you haven’t seen the movie (or read the comics) perhaps you should wait to read this.
An interesting change from the comic to the film adaption of Scott Pilgrim VS. The World was the use of the “Power of Self-Respect” sword at the end of the film. In the comics Scott ended up with the “Power of Understanding” sword, which he used to defeat Gideon. In the movie, Scott realizes that he needs to fight Gideon for himself and not for Ramona. This grants him the “Power of Self-Respect” that helps him in his defeat.

If you thought break-ups were complicated when you were still among the dating, you have absolutely nothing on our digital lovebirds of today. Where once if you got really adventurous you might have some naked-time videotapes and Polaroids to worry about once the relationship ran its course, now with the picture perfect replication of digital technology it’s a much more complicated matter altogether.

As a sex shop employee, I know how difficult it is to pick a sex toy. You finally work up the courage to get into the sex shop and you’re greeted by a giant wall of synthetic dicks. Things aren’t much better shopping online either; how are you supposed to know if you’re going to want to put something on your junk if you can’t even touch it with your hands? To give you a hand — or at least a silicone fist — I’ve created this little tip list to help you find the best sex toy for you!

Have you ever wondered why you feel attracted to some things, products or people? There is a famous quote by Leonardo da Vinci: “Nothing fools us more than our own judgement”. Can this be true? Let’s see…
