I’m sitting here reading this article about kissing and it is making me really wish my boyfriend wasn’t 1,000 miles away so I could just make out with him.

Like, a full on seventh grade make-out sesh.

I love to kiss. Which, I suppose, why a poll of 1,000 college students at a New York City school, mentioned here, isn’t really mind blowing.

Apparently we, as women, like to kiss. And we think it’s really important to boot. We use “kissing as a way of assessing the recipient as a potential partner, and later to maintain intimacy and to check the status of a relationship.”

While guys “were more willing to have sex with someone without kissing, to have sex with someone they are not attracted to and agree to have sex with someone they considered to be a bad kisser.”

Men also placed less importance on kissing as the relationship progressed. I would imagine since they putting their importance on the bumping and grinding.

The article said that men preferred “wet, tongue kisses” but didn’t say what the ladies liked. I’m guessing it’s a mixture of the tender kisses we like all the time and the passionate (and, err, wet?) kisses that come with sex? Read More »

So, you’re going out tonight. To a bar or party you know will have prospective hook-ups. That’s the whole reason for going out, really, seeing as how you’ve been so busy with that summer internship / job / getting ready for college that you haven’t had much time for a dude. Maybe you’re not necessarily looking for sex, buy some physical attention on a sweaty dance floor never hurt anyone.

Most people end up making out in public because they’re A) pretty drunk and/or B) really need some ass. Even those of us who consider ourselves slightly shy when it comes to PDA throw caution to wind after a few vodka tonics and one or two cuts from Michael Jackson’s Thriller.

It’s harmless, we tell ourselves (if we’re still of the right mind to do so) while making out with a stranger, everyone else is doing it! Read More »

In a previous blog about 40 mistakes guys make in the bedroom a list found on Scribd.com was brought to the attention of many female college students and readers.The list was pretty much dead-on about the many traumatic errors men make between the sheets, so much so that I just couldn’t bare to let this one go without another crack at it–a deeper, more detailed one.

I’ve been showing the article to numerous friends and acquaintances, as to get a broader opinion on the whole thing, and I’ve stumbled upon some interesting feedback from my fellow female colleagues and sexual savants.

Here I have listed what I have found to be the most tragically common sexual faux-pas, that college girls like ourselves often play victim to, and added some commentary that I think you’ll enjoy.

The following are in no particular order or scale (from most offensive to least). They all pretty much suck – so avoid, at all costs, any guy that makes a habit out of the following faux-pas.

• Not Kissing – when a guy goes strait for the O-Zone (not necessarily an “O-Zone” for us, but rather a device in providing an easily attainable “O” for them—bastards!) it doesn’t make a girl…how do I say this nicely?—wet! It makes us feel like Julia Roberts in pretty women, pre-falling madly in love with Richard Gear—not cool.

• Not Shaving – and I’m not just talking about the prickly shards of hair that protrude from a man’s face by 5p.m., and often cause irritating rashes—wherever they may arise. Men must also be clean shaven down below, especially if they are going to expect the same courtesy from us. No one (male or female) needs to be “flossing” while performing down unda’.

• Ignoring Her Other Body Parts – we ladies, I believe, have 7 erogenous zones, according to Monica Gellar. Yet men tend to pay attention to only 3—and barely. The twins and the other, most important sista’, are what men seem to focus on most; but as most ladies know, we love and adore having every inch of our bodies touched, caressed and sexually teased.

Who says you need a little excitement in your love life to get your heart rate going? Chocolate can do just that, if not better. Hallelujah.

I know we have all gone through ’slumps’ or ‘droughts’ shall we say, when all we crave is a little passion and lip-locking. If only I had known about these recent findings during those times, maybe my life would have been a little easier. Researchers have now found that eating chocolate creates a longer and more intense ‘buzz’ than kissing, and doubled the heart rates of volunteers in the study.

“There is no doubt that chocolate beats kissing hands down when it comes to providing a long-lasting body and brain buzz…A buzz that, in many cases, lasted four times as long as the most passionate kiss,” said one doctor from the study.

I mean, I always thought chocolate made me feel better, but I always figured it was purely mental and just an old female myth. Now, it has actually been proven that it gives you a greater buzz than passionate kissing. Oh, the wonders of science.

But, there is a trick to acquiring the best buzz possible, and it has to do with the chocolate melting on your tongue. Listen closely…
