The GEM Debate: Are You Attracted To Bad Boys?
8
Oh man, oh man I can’t wait to hear how our men weigh in on this one.
It seems scientists have now pinpointed something that anyone who’s spent any significant time in a bar at happy hour have long deduced; women are attracted to bad boys. Geez, I hope they didn’t spend a lot of money figuring that one out!

Ask Rene: Mother In Law Misery
9Dear Rene,
I’m proud to say that I have the best husband in the world. Fred is thoughtful, considerate and an all around good guy. I love everything about him, except for one thing…. HIS MOTHER!

Turns out the folks at Dove may have a bit of hot water to go with all that soap they make.
Check out the photo above for the company’s latest Visible Care campaign. Do you find it racist? Some people are saying it is…
