You’ve probably already had your fill of indie emo guys slobbering all over you. Just kidding, who can get enough? Converse, makers of the sneakers for at least 50% of the guys you dated in college, have just released KissingwithRoss.com, an “Average Joe” style ad campaign, but his makin’ out is above average. He gets right up on the lense and goes for it, tongue and all. Okay, so usually when we’re licking someone’s face, we close our eyes, but Ross is giving us a reason to keep our peepers open.

The Top Ten Best Things About Being Single & Independent
In honor of Independence Day, we asked around for the best things about being single and independent. Here’s the top ten!
10. HOOKING UP
“Kissing total strangers when you’re out at bars or on dance floors. No names, no numbers exchanged, just random frenching.” — Sonia
“Ahh, guiltless, shameless flirting with strangers.” — Jocelyn
Slideshow: “Oh, Say Can You See…”
To properly celebrate our nation’s birth, you must do these three things tomorrow: grill food, watch fireworks, and wear something (anything) that involves stars or stripes. We’re here to help you with the third. Now, you have a couple options. You can go all out and wear only an American flag draped around your body, or you can be a little more subtle, and put on something you already own — or needed an excuse to run out and buy today. While you’re at it, don’t forget to pick up a pack of sparklers. Keep reading »
A Spa For Women Concerned About Pelvic Fitness
Dr. Lauri Romanzi, a gynecologist who performs pelvic reconstruction surgery, will open the first spa dedicated to strengthening and grooming a woman’s genitals in Manhattan this month. Taking a cue from the creation of storefront dental spas, like BriteSmile, Dr. Romanzi developed her own concept of pelvic fitness. PHIT — short for pelvic health integrated techniques — will help women get healthy from the inside out with the use of Kegel exercises and laser treatments. We’re all for women taking care of their junk, but you can strengthen their vaginal muscles with products sold at adult stores, like Tighten Up or Ben Wa balls, for a lot cheaper than PHIT’s $150 signature gynecological exam.

The Frisky Guidebook: Vice City
In the words of the great Will Smith, “Welcome to Miami…” where people really do party “all night on the beach ‘til the break of dawn.” As the sun gloriously beats down, the streets are lined with so many al fresco diners and strolling locals that you start to wonder if anyone actually works in this town. But really, how can they? With its tropical climate, gorgeous inhabitants, fiery cuisine and – Will would be amiss if we didn’t mention them – white-sand beaches, it’s no wonder why Miami clocks in as America’s sexiest city. So grab your sunscreen (extra SPF here!) and hang on while The Frisky shows you how to get a taste of the real Miami heat with these sizzlin’ South Florida hot spots.

Summer Camp For Girls Who Want To Be Rich
Going to summer camp was one of the best things about being a kid. You got to make cool bracelets, learn how to canoe, and maybe even see shooting stars streak across the sky. But these days, there are new camps that just don’t sound as fun. The Wall Street Journal has an article in today’s paper about financial camps, where kids learn about investing and becoming entrepreneurs. One of these camps, Camp Millionaire in Santa Barbara, CA, is just for girls ages 10 to 15. While it’s nice that there’s an all-female place for young women to learn about being responsible with money, I don’t think I would have wanted to spend my summer learning how to become a millionaire at that age.
