The Top 50 Dirtiest Album Covers Bring Back Memories
I totally love Gigwise’s list of the Top 50 Dirtiest Album Covers. There was the stuff that automatically to mind, like The Rolling Stones’ Sticky Fingers, 2 Live Crew’s As Nasty As They Wanna Be, and The Black Crowes’ Amorica but then the list also had some we totally forgot about. RATT’s Invasion Of Your Privacy! Prince’s Lovesexy! Bob Geldof’s Sex, Age & Death! But my personal favorite has to be Lords Of Acid’s Crab Louse, an album seemingly named after pubic lice.

Raise Your Hand If You Think Wedding Traditions Are Stupid
Traditions can be a great way to make occasions special, but don’t you kind of wonder who came up with these crazy things? Mental Floss has a great post about the origin of wedding traditions, and after reading them, I am way less into keeping them. Why should I wear white just because Queen Victoria did?

Is Hair-Pulling During Sex So Taboo?
Rough sex. Sure, it’s not for the faint of heart, but it certainly has a large and enthusiastic following. But lately it’s been getting some bad press and from “The Girl Next Door” at Men’s Health mag. A reader wrote in to her because his girlfriend wants him to pull her ponytail during sex. The Girl Next Door sees this as being potentially sadistic. Hmm, everyone has a right to have the sex they like and be open about what they do want with a partner. Sure, some people like to get pretty freaky — like on The Tyra Show, for example — but a little hair-pulling doesn’t seem so nutty. Still, if a little rough sex is weird enough to freak a guy out about his girlfriend, then maybe they’re just not compatible. What do you guys think? [Men’s Health] Keep reading »

Crave: Little Piggy Ear Buds
My dog is always chewing up my ear buds, so right now I don’t have a pair and I haven’t listened to my iPod in about a month. Total sadness. But I might need to buy these, not just because I’m in desperate need, but also because they are adorable, and maybe Lucca will be too intimidated by the pigs to come near them.

Birth Defects Linked to UTIs and STDs
Since the sexual revolution, it’s been hard for us modern gals to remember that our below the belt business is also for baby-making. STD’s and UTI’s are always a risk, but sadly, these party favors from sexual favors have been linked to birth defects. Just when you thought they were bad enough to handle on your own, a new study has found they quadruple your baby’s chances of being born with a birth defect known as gastroschisis. While the name of the disorder is hard to pronounce, the complications are convoluted too — gastrochisis causes the baby’s intestines and other organs to be born outside the abdomen. States like Utah have experienced a tenfold increase in cases over the past 30 years and they blame it on the rise of STD and UTI infections. Keep reading »
