We don’t need to sell you on the importance of keeping a bottle of lube handy in the bedroom. It’s a must for sexy times. But not all lubricants are created equal. You want one that’s water-based so it’s safe for sex toys, and latex safe, but free of fragrances, glycerin and alcohol — the things that can make the lady parts irritated. Our pick is Astroglide Natural. Made with all-natural ingredients, the new botanical formula has everything you need —  and nothing you don’t – for a long-lasting good time. Just say YES to your free sample! [Astroglide]

Team Unibrow: Meet Olympic Diver Ivan Garcia

There’s something different about Olympic diver — representing Team Mexico — Ivan Garcia: he has not waxed his body hair, something most competitive athletes (in diving, swimming and gymnastics in particular) do because hair causes drag and can slow down your time. He’s already won a silver medal at the London Olympics, so his body hair doesn’t seem to be impeding his ability to compete at the top of his game. Another part of his body that Ivan hasn’t touched? That unibrow, which garners him a much coveted spot in our Unibrow Hall of Fame. Congrats, Ivan! [Buzzfeed]

Woman Leaks Half-Naked Pics Of U.S. Olympic Gymnast Danell Leyva (NSFW)

An anonymous lady decided to share these pics of USA Olympic gymnast Danell Leyva with the world because he allegedly “sorta played” her. She has a fully nude pic of the 20-year-old Miami native as well, but wants to “see how it goes” with these pics first. We’re sorry for this woman’s pain, and we get that she was trying to exact revenge, but really, it’s going pretty well for us. We can’t deny that we’ve thoroughly enjoyed looking at Leyva’s pecs, er, pics. You probably want to look, too. Go ahead. Do it! Spoiler: He wears Hugo Boss boxer briefs, doesn’t wash the chalk off his hands before he masturbates and has a healthy-sized … ego. [Deadspin] Keep reading »

The 11 Most Amazing Penises

Men, how do you know you’re well-endowed? Oh, when your penis is mistaken for a weapon of mass destruction. Jonah Falcon, the man presumed to have the world’s largest penis (although Guinness World Records has not been down in his pants to confirm), aroused suspicion at the San Francisco International Airport when passing through security.

At nine inches flaccid and 13.5 inches at full mast, it’s not surprising that airport security suspected his “very noticeable” bulge might have been an explosive device. “I had my ‘stuff” strapped to the left. I wasn’t erect at the time … One of the guards asked if my pockets were empty and I said, ‘Yes.’ I said, ‘It’s my d**k.’ He gave me a pat down … They even put some powder on my pants, probably a test for explosives. I found it amusing,” said the 41-year-old New Yorker. Falcon joked that next time he’s “just going to wear bike shorts” when traveling. Great idea, Jonah!

Disclaimer: If you’re reading this right now and have the urge to put your love interest’s pet in a pot of boiling water, stop reading and seek professional help immediately. This is not for you. This is for everyone else in the world, for we’ve all had bunny boiling moments. Please don’t even front like you’ve never behaved like an insane person in your dating life. Every single one of us, with the exception of PERFECT PEOPLE or those who are not yet old enough to have experienced temporary romantic insanity, have had off-the-richter scale embarrassing bunny boiling moments. Whether motivated by excessive drunkenness,insane jealousy, crippling insecurity, the aftermath is always the same. Mortifying. We shall not dwell on why you stalked your ex and showed up at the karaoke bar to confront him and his new girlfriend (that’s for you and your therapist to discuss), we want to talk about how to recover from the incident with your dignity intact. One incident of bunny boiling does not make you a psycho a la Glenn Close in “Fatal Attraction,” it makes you a human being who made a mistake that you now need to atone for. Some suggestions after the jump. Keep reading »
