You’ve probably heard of a “happy ending” massage, and if you haven’t, what the hell kind of PG-rated world are you living in? As weird and dirty as I think they are (how many people have been jacked off in that room. Seriously?), if dudes (and yes, some women) want to have a stranger who probably hates their job help them orgasm, then whatever. Go for it.

But allowing your husband to get one? Encouraging and then laughing with him about it afterwards? Telling him how cute it was that he had a hard time finding someone to finally do it?

WTF.

Now, I’m not one of those rabid girlfriends who beats their boyfriend for accidentally checking out the boobs of another woman — hell, I’m not even one of those girls who won’t let her dude go to a strip club — but I really don’t think I’d spend my time convincing my husband to let some other chick give him a handjob for $55 with tip.

My reasoning is less about the possibility of him getting ideas and then cheating (I believe if a guy is gonna cheat he’s gonna cheat, no matter what you say or do), and more about the weirdness of encouraging a husband to seek outside sexual gratification. I mean, if I’m his wife, shouldn’t I be the one providing all the sex acts? Is that what you kind of promise when you get married — that you’re the one who will be giving all the handjobs from now on?

What do you think? If you were married, would you encourage your guy to get a “happy ending”?

Whether he’s spent half of his career in the slammer or not, Robert Downy Jr. has always been a favorite with the ladies.  Those lips, those puppy dog eyes…those freaking biceps in Iron Man, RDJ is pure middle-aged fantasy material if I’ve ever seen it.

Speaking of fantasies, RDJ just admitted to Now Magazine that he used to be a compulsive masturbator!  Which is really pretty strange!  [Our exclamation points are because we don't know how to process this information!]

“I was a compulsive, serial masturbator, but it was the best thing I could have been. I utilized that organ and rode it for everything it was worth.” 

Hmm.   Awkward.  Downy goes on to say this:

“[masturbating] no longer a motivating factor for me. My union with [my wife] is sacred. Almost always, guys want to get laid. They have a girlfriend, they want to f*ck her friend. But I’m not that guy.”

Good to know that he don’t want to eff his wife’s friends.  Also good to know that he believes marriage is sacred.  Weird to know that he used to tug it all the time.

Some people enjoy sharing, I guess.

Author and marriage counselor M. Gary Neuman is all over the airwaves these days; from Oprah to The Morning Show with Mike and Juliette, this guy has been spreading his message as loudly as possible. And what is his message, exactly? “One in 2.7″ (apparently there are some half man, half monkeys walking around out there…) men will cheat on their significant other, and not only will they cheat, they’ll do it because their female counterpart isn’t appreciating them.

According to Neuman, the reason men cheat isn’t because they want a hotter piece of ass or even promiscuous sex, the reason they cheat is because their wives have stopped being nice to them. “The majority [of men] said it was an emotional disconnection, specifically a sense of feeling under-appreciated. A lack of thoughtful gestures,” Neuman is quoted as saying on Oprah.com, “Men are very emotional beings. They just don’t look like that. Or they don’t seem like that. Or they don’t tell you that.”

Even though Neuman said he wrote his book to “empower women,” a lot of people are kind of pissed off with his findings. Even though the good counselor doesn’t come right out and say it’s the wives’ or girlfriends’ fault when their partner strays, saying that men cheat because they don’t feel appreciated is basically saying it’s the wives’ or girlfriends’ fault! Because who doesn’t the husband or boyfriend feel appreciated by? That’s right — his partner. Read More »
