I’ve always wanted to play a full 18 holes of golf, but my golfing experience ends at mini-golf at Family Fun Center (which I domintiated, by the way). Even though I’ve always wanted to play, I’ve never found it terribly enticing to sit and watch a whole round of golf. Quite frankly, it’s bo-to-the-ring. I once went to a boyfriend’s golf match and I was more entertained by the golf carts and those weird little knickers everyone was wearing than by the slow moving game he was apparently losing.

With the PGA Championship going on, I’ve truly been trying to take interest in the sport, but before I know it, I’m watching reruns of One Tree Hill on Soap Net and I have no idea how or when it happened. I can’t help it, I’m smitten for Chad Michael Murray.

This got me thinking…maybe if Chad-y poo was the one golfing, I might take a little more interest. I know, I know; this makes me sound like a boy-crazed-girly-girl, but humor me here. How great would it be to see some of these guys pulling their clubs out and polishing their balls (pun entirely intended). Read More »

Talking sex with your doctor isn’t always easy. Whether you are afraid she will judge you,  you just don’t feel comfortable sharing the intimate details of your life between the sheets, or you can’t think straight with a speculum between your legs, many people get tight lipped in the doctor’s office. But that doesn’t mean you don’t have questions.

We thought we’d help and every Thursday our friend Dr. Lissa Rankin will be answering your questions. The ones you couldn’t ask your doctor in person. Just leave your questions in the comments, or send em over to us. (We’ll keep it all anonymous for you.) Dr. Lissa will answer anything – really, anything – about sex and other lady things. Don’t be shy; she’s waiting for ya!

Q: This may sound really dumb, but when my doctor asks me if I’m sexually active, I never know how to answer. Have I had sex before? Yes. Am I having it now? No. (But I wish I were…) When I have it, is it with the same person? No. How do I answer this and, even more, is she judging me when I answer truthfully?

A: I know how confusing that question can be.  I once asked a woman if she was sexually active and she said no. I then discovered she was pregnant and confronted her. She said, “Well, I only have sex five times/week. I don’t think that’s very active.” So yes, the word “active” can be misleading.

When we docs ask if a woman is sexually active, here’s what we’re trying to figure out. Read More »

There are certain times when any woman can preserve the right to be a bitch (like when she’s curled up in bed with a heating pad on her ovaries). But instead, try being bold rather than bitchy. It is so much classier then going all Regina George on someone just because they piss you off.

You know those times when that little monster inside of you just wants to lash out? Well, here are some bold (and bitchy counterpart) responses to ease the inner bitch while still putting someone in their place.

You go girl.

Someone Cuts You in Line
Bitchy: Get the f out of my way, you line cutting ho.
Bold: Excuse me? I believe I was here first, but feel free to get in line behind me.

Someone Macks on Your Man
Bitchy: Back off before I go Jerry Springer on you. HE’S MY MAN.
Bold: I appreciate the compliment of you admiring my man, but he is taken…. by me. (Smiley aggressively)

Someone Tries to Steal Your Idea at Work
Bitchy: Isn’t it funny how that idea wasn’t yours at all, but my idea? I think our boss will also think it’s funny. When I tell him. RIGHT NOW, bitch.
Bold: I find it interesting that your “idea” was so similar to my input and original thought. I guess, in the future, I won’t collaborate with you at all. Read More »

It’s official. I’m moving to New Orleans.

No, not because I love flashing my boobs for beads (it might be my favorite pastime, but I can do that right here in Ann Arbor) or eating beignets for every meal (Ok, maybe that’s part of it). I’m packing my things and hitting the road because rumor has it Brad Pitt might be running for Mayor.

Can I get a “hell yes!!”?

I didn’t think we could get a politician much hotter than the presidente, but it looks like the impossible is indeed possible. But Mayor-to-be Pitt is more than just a really freaking gorgeous face; he’d do wonders for the city of New Orleans. He’s already created a non-profit organization to help rebuild and his being mayor could do so much more. Read More »

Want to look absolutely perfect all the time like Hollywood’s biggest celebrities?

Get a makeup artist.

Makeup artists know that one of the keys to creating a perfect makeup look is to consider what a person already has.  Skin tone, hair color, eye color, etc. all have an effect on what colors look best on a person.  You’ve probably heard the ladies at the makeup counter talk about people being “seasons,” and what colors look best on a face.  But you may have never done the research to figure out exactly which colors are meant to consistently work best for you.

And that’s where I come in. Consider me your personal makeup artist for the day. I’ve checked out a couple of different sites and compiled a summary of what you should be looking for when shopping for staple makeup items.

So, what’s next for Paula Abdul?

Stay away from these dudes.

It’s a boy for Kendra Wilkinson.

Bates students turn trash into treasure.

Bradley Cooper is off the market, ladies.

Christian Siriano brings the fierce to your face.

Blonde is my natural hair color. I rarely drink this much. I’m enjoying being single.

We all lie, in some form or another. We lie to our parents (it’s not a hangover; it’s a stomach bug), our teachers (I’m late because the bus was delayed, not because I forgot to set my alarm), our employers (it’s my mom’s birthday, not some girl in my hall’s 21^st) and our sexual partners (you’re the best I’ve ever had!).

Lying to someone you’re sleeping with is dangerous territory, though. By lying to them, you could be endangering their physical (or mental) health. Which lies are OK to tell, and what things do we have to fess up too?

Lie: I’ve never worn this lingerie for anyone else.

Verdict: OK. We all have a favorite pair of lingerie, and we’ve probably worn it with more than one partner. After all, good lingerie is expensive, and we shouldn’t have to throw it out just because a relationship ends. But your partner probably doesn’t want to know what you wore last time you canoodled with someone else, so it’s okay to keep that information to yourself, or fib a little if it comes up.

Lie: I never slept with [insert friend here].

Verdict: BAD. The truth will come out eventually, and it will not be pretty. How would you feel if you found out one of your partner’s close friends was actually someone they used to sleep with? It’s best to have this information up front. Read More »

And what’s wrong with Facebook heavy?

In honor of Twilight Barbie, here are a few others we’d like to see.

Full House reunion!!

Welcome to a new College Candy feature: The Rival Rundown! We’re taking a look at the oldest, fiercest, and even funniest rivalries between colleges and universities all over the country. We’re going to be examining everything from mascots to mess halls to the most obnoxious traditions, all with the intent of determining which schools are ballin’ out of control.

And if you’ve always wanted to give props to your school on CC, now’s your chance! Shoot us an email explaining what’s awesome and unique about your school (or what stinks about Rival U) at rivalrundown@collegecandy.com!

This week we zero in on two state schools on opposite sides of Kansas City – University of Kansas and the University of Missouri. The Big 12 conference rivals share rhyming nicknames (KU and Mizzou) but little else. How do the two joke-loving, panty-raiding, prideful colleges measure up?

1. Mascot Matchup

Kansas- The colorful Jayhawks are the pride of Lawrence, Kansas. Their infamous chant, “Rock Chalk Jayhawk!” was once proclaimed by Teddy Roosevelt as “the greatest college chant [he'd] ever heard.”
Mizzou- The mascot of Columbia, MO is named Truman the Tiger, after President Harry Truman.

Three credits to: Kansas. Check out the ominous/grandiose audio to accompany the Jayhawk squawk. Read More »

You know you’ve been there: your man has left the room and you are sitting there, staring at his computer or cell phone or closet. You have no reason to question the boy, but there is something about having all those potential secrets/answers at your fingertips that you just can’t seem to ignore. Is he texting another chick? Does he have some freaky porn addiction? Are there naked pics of his exes stored on his desktop?

Do you snoop or not? Moreover, what does he do when he’s left in the same sitch?

Crazy as it may sound, I’ve done my fair share of snooping in my life. Luckily, I never came across anything too juicy (except that one time I checked someone’s browsing history and found porn and only porn…and then felt an intense desire to step away from the keyboard and wash my hands), but what if I had? Is it fair? Is it wrong? Am I crazy for wondering what he keeps in that shoebox under his bed?! Read More »
