Increasing Breast Size

North American women are known to compare themselves to other women, using physical attributes to rate sexiness, cuteness, and glamour. A woman looks at another woman and thinks to herself, “I have nicer hair than her,” or “Why the hell should she have nice legs instead of me?” What a lot of people don’t realize is that not only do women compare hair, clothes, makeup, and so on, but also breast size, breast lift, and breast shape. Such comparisons have nothing to do with sexual orientation, but more to do with self comparison and validation. With this being ... From: Increasing Breast Size

How Sex can Affect Your Relationship

Sex in a relationship is about more than just some fun bumping in the night. Many people don’t realize just how much sex can affect their relationships. With media projections and social pressures all around us, it’s hard to separate the facts from widely accepted beliefs. Let’s take, for example, young people in their teens. Teenage boys are often of the opinion that the more sex and the more partners the better. Multiple partners make these boys “cooler” or more manly, because that is what the peer pressure is all about. Women tend to be the exact opposite... From: How Sex Can Affect Your Relationship

Become a Big Brother/Sister!

Volunteering to be a Big Brother/Sister is not as easy as it’s made out to be on television or in books.  Someone who is interested in becoming a mentor cannot simply walk into the agency and say, “I want a kid.”  It just doesn’t work that way.  The Big Brother/Big Sister agency is responsible for matching a mentor with a child in a safe and controlled manner.  Unfortunately, the process is rather long and discourages a lot of prospective volunteers from getting involved.

Here is some information about  the first steps of becoming a Big Brother/Big Sister:

How to Help Fight Human Trafficking

Most people who have heard about human trafficking have heard most about sex slaves, and while awareness of that one aspect of trafficking is important, more people need to realize that human trafficking extends past the sex industry. Human trafficking includes slave labour, the selling of people to pay off debts, the use of people to maintain compliance amongst other trafficked individuals, et cetera. In short, human trafficking is the purchasing, selling, and using of people to perform tasks without proper pay or recognition. Human trafficking is a monstrous industry that is estimated at ear...

Should You Say Yes?

In movies, marriage is merely a romantic event that occurs between two people who are insanely in love.  It doesn’t matter if the two people know each other really well, or if they’d just met only a couple weeks before.  In Hollywood, time means absolutely nothing.
Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for real life.  Time is what gives people a true sense of their prospective partners.  Without really knowing who and what someone else is, it’s impossible to have a true marriage that is based off reality rather than fairytale dreams. 
What should someone look for in a pro... From: Should You Say Yes?

Five Things Not to Say to a Woman

Everyone has had those lovely moments in life when an awkward or inappropriate statement is made to him/her.  The sad thing is that people often don’t realize that they’ve said the wrong thing unless a confrontation follows afterward (often times in relationships or prospective relationships).  Here is a list of things not to say to a prospective female partner.

1.    You have big feet.  Really?  Why on earth would anyone ever just blurt out to a woman that she has big feet?  A likely response to a statement pertaining to big feet is as follows: “Why, thank you so much!  I ne... From: Five Things Not to Say to a Woman

Sarah's Key: A Book Review

The book begins at the story of Sarah Starzynski in July of 1942.  She is at home, in bed, when there is a pounding at the door and the threatening call of a man yelling, “Police!”.  Sarah recalls her parents secret whisperings, thinks of her father who is hiding in the cellar, and she can't help but be afraid.  At ten years old, she doesn't understand what is happening, but she knows that nothing good could become of it.  She never imagined, however, that she would be one of the children victimized in the infamous Vel' D'Hiv' roundup, where her own trusted policemen and neighbours...

Going to a Male Doctor

Ever go to a male doctor and try to explain a problem, to which you receive a textbook answer with absolutely no empathy at all? It sucks, doesn't it? I, for one, am completely against going to a male doctor. That's not to say that I don't think that men are just as capable as women to assess someone's health - that's not it at all. What I'm saying is that since I am female, who could possibly relate to me more than another female? A man can listen to my complaints, read his medical encyclopedia, and tell me how to fix things... but a woman could potentially offer me a little more insight. For example, if I were to suffer from massive cramps whenever the monthly gift was drawing near, a male doctor could prescribe something to me, tell me to make sure to exercise a little bit more... etc. A female doctor might be able to tell me some personal ideas that she has come up with to relieve cramping. So many girls/women don't realize that avoiding dairy products will actually reduce cramps. Amazing!

I have to admit that I also don't like the idea of a man checking out my goodies. It's pretty uncomfortable having a woman do it, but getting some weird, miserable (or worse... happy) man doing the task down there.... No, really, no thanks. I'll pass on that one.
