I was recently informed that—despite generally being placed next to milk and yogurt at the grocery store—eggs aren’t actually dairy. Now, before that moment, I confess that I hadn’t really spent too much time wondering about the precise classification of our embryonic breakfast companions. But since that...
Having a headache may be the most clichéd not-in-the-mood excuse in existence for women wanting to avoid sex. But research published in the Journal of Neuroscience reveals that pain really does have a libido-busting effect on women—and, apparently, only women.

IT’S OVER! Screw everyone, I’m taking time for myself! I’m going to LIVE! ….I’m lonely and I need a hug. SCREW THAT! I’m wild and free and single and I’m going to have sex with all the things! …..I miss spooning while watching three seasons of The Great...
Like pretty much all men, I hate going to the doctor. The only time in recent memory that I’ve made an exception to my medical professional-avoidance policy is when I got poison ivy on my penis (don’t ask) and I went to urgent care immediately. Outside of...
