Poll: Would You Wear Pajamas In Public?

Posted by: Susannah Breslin 8:30AM, Wednesday November 04th 2009 Filed in: style, polls

Over at Boing Boing, my pal Xeni Jardin points to a Chengdu Business Daily item that reports a.) people in Shanghai sometimes walk around in public in their pajamas, and b.) the city government is cracking down on the practice because the World Expo is coming to town next year, and they don't want everyone wandering the streets in their jammies. According to the story, some of Shanghai's residents are crying foul, deeming the mandate a civil rights violation: "Aren't education and skill more important for people than the cosmetic beauty of acceptable garments?" Now, I know some of you out there have worn pajamas in public. I know this. Of course, others of you have not. Sometimes I see what appear to be sorority girls from the local university walking the supermarket aisles in their nightwear. Personally, I don't really care, but the more style-minded among us may take offense.

Would you wear pajamas in public?

Poll: How Much Do You Drink On A First Date?

Posted by: Amelia McDonell-Parry 8:00AM, Tuesday November 03rd 2009 Filed in: relationships, polls

I was conversing with a dude this weekend about imbibing alcohol on a first date -- how much is too much and even too little. As someone who enjoys a good glass/bottle of wine, especially paired with food, dating someone who drinks is kind of, well, important to me. No offense to any readers who don't drink (especially those who are in recovery), but it would be difficult for me to date a non-drinker. That said, I don't want to date someone who can't have a good time without boozing it up either. I always do my darndest not to get drunk on a first date, mainly because I want to make the best decisions possible if I'm just starting to get to know someone -- and I certainly would be buggin' out a little if my date got smashed while I remained fairly sober. So, what about you?

Poll: How Much Money Would It Take For You To Go Nude In A Magazine?

Posted by: Simcha Whitehill 8:30AM, Thursday October 29th 2009 Filed in: polls, sex

As you, my pervy friends, already know, Levi Johnston is posing this month for Playgirl. While it remains to be seen whether or not he’ll do full-frontal, just yesterday, the young Johnston tweeted, “Would you show your WANG for $35,000?” Now that’s a big sum of money; we're not sure how much per inch that would work out to for Levi -- but would it get you to take it all off?

How much money would get you to bare all for a porno mag?

Poll: What Secrets Do You Keep From Your Significant Other?

Posted by: Susannah Breslin 9:30AM, Wednesday October 28th 2009 Filed in: relationships, polls

Little white lies. Big gnawing secrets. In relationships, we all keep certain thing from our significant others -- even if we don't think we do. Sure, there may be a few among us who put it all out on the table, but relationships are tricky, and sometimes not letting it all hang out is for the best. The trick is figuring out what to tell and when to keep your mouth shut. From sexual history to credit card debt, opening one's personal Pandora's box can make it or break it in love. So we've gotta ask ...

What are the secrets that you keep in a relationship?

My sexual history. My number is in the double digits. He thinks it's under five. What he doesn't know won't hurt him.
My credit card debt. I had no idea all those Louboutins would add up to that big number so quickly. Le sigh.
My age. I told him I was 29. Too late to fess up now! That's why I hide my purse.
My anxieties. Is he really "The One"? I don't know if I want to marry him.
My abortion. Only my best friend and my mom know.
My addiction. I worry he'll leave me if I confess.
My boob job. I think he knows already.
There are none. I am an open book. I have no secrets!

Poll: Would You Convert For The One You Love?

Posted by: Amelia McDonell-Parry 1:00PM, Monday October 26th 2009 Filed in: relationships, polls

This morning on "The View," the ladies (and I use that term loosely, as these hyenas talk over each other incessantly) discussed the weekend nuptials of Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner. Ivanka converted to Judaism so she would share the same religion as her new hubby. Barbara decided she would not ever convert, but we don't really care what she thinks, because she's fairly out of it, so that's why we're gonna ask you.

Would you convert for the one you love?

Poll: Would You Dump A Guy If He Showed His Buddies A Racy Photo You Sent Him?

Posted by: Amelia McDonell-Parry 8:00AM, Saturday October 17th 2009 Filed in: relationships, polls

Psst. I have a secret. There have been a couple occasions, in the past, where I've had a photo or two of a dude's, uh, junk on my cellphone. And I have showed these photos to a couple close friends (usually in the "showing off" sense). I know, I am awful, I am so ashamed. So when a guy friend suggested I do a poll about whether women would break up with a dude who showed his friends a racy photo of HER, my initial reaction was, "DUH," but then I was like, "Oh. Wait. I've done that. So maybe not." So, what say you?

Poll: What’s Your Number?

Posted by: The Frisky 9:10AM, Friday October 09th 2009 Filed in: polls, sex

What's your number? Not your telephone number. The number of sex partners you've had in your life. From zero to 99, a woman's number can be a source of pride or anxiety. How low is too low? How high is too high? Or maybe your number is just right for you. If a significant other asks what a woman's number is, some women round up and some women round down. We here at The Frisky want to find out the truth about your sex stats.

Poll: How Soon Into A Relationship Do You Fart In Front Of Your Man?

Posted by: Amelia McDonell-Parry 11:10AM, Thursday October 08th 2009 Filed in: relationships, polls

In my last relationship we had no problem farting in front of each other. My ex would try and dutch-oven me in bed and I would sometimes get up casually, stand in front of his face, and break wind. Just for giggles. Going forward, I don't think I am going to be so liberal with the flatulence, but at some point, I'm gonna have to ease up and just get it over with right? Farting, I mean. How soon into a relationship do you let 'er rip?

Poll: How Often Do You Masturbate?

Posted by: The Frisky 9:40AM, Wednesday October 07th 2009 Filed in: polls, sex

Ever notice how a lot of blogs for dudes are 99 percent links to stuff for guys to masturbate to? We here at The Frisky wonder how guys have time to do anything else, what with all that self-spanking time on their hands. Lady blogs are a different story altogether. But that got us thinking: How often do women masturbate? Once a day? Once a week? Once a month? Once a year? According to PyschologyToday.com, 38 percent of women said they'd masturbated only once during the last year. On the other hand, About.com's Men's Health section says men masturbate around two or three times a week. We can't help but wonder if this is the whole story.

Poll: If You Could Wipe The Memory Of Someone From Your Brain, Would You?

Posted by: Amelia McDonell-Parry 4:10PM, Tuesday September 29th 2009 Filed in: relationships, polls

One of my favorite love stories -- and it's not a chick flick, as I think many men enjoy it -- is "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind." For those who haven't seen it or need a refresher on the plot, here's the gist from IMDb:

"A couple [Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet] undergoes a procedure to erase each other from their memories when their relationship turns sour, but it is only through the process of loss that they discover what they had to begin with."

So yeah, ignoring that last nugget of movie wisdom, I sometimes wonder if it might be worth it with certain people, if you could "eternal sunshine" them from your mind. I have a friend who is still weirdly, inexplicably emotionally tied to a dirty rotten scoundrel of an ex-boyfriend and I certainly wish for her sake that such a thing was possible. But what about you?

If you could wipe someone from your memory, would you?

Poll: Are Feminine Hygiene Products Creepy?

Posted by: Susannah Breslin 8:30AM, Wednesday September 23rd 2009 Filed in: polls, sex

Some dood put together a list of the 20 Creepiest Feminine Hygiene Products, and you know what? He's got a point. Sometimes those products for your lady-bits are just plain shudder-inducing. What were we thinking when we bought that pubic hair dye? We know not. Other examples: camouflage-patterned Maxi Pads, a jar of butt bleach, the Va J-J visor for your vag, the Hello Kitty Douche, the menstrual cup, and the pee funnel. Eek!

Will You Sport A Midriff Come Next Spring?

Posted by: Erin Flaherty 12:29PM, Monday September 14th 2009 Filed in: style, polls

Sooo, um, yeah, we've witnessed the revival of the harem pant, bleach-splattered jeans, shoulder pads, crazy excessive layers of jewelry, and now, behold, the bared belly. So far they've cropped up (ha!) at Cynthia Steffe, Charlotte Ronson, Yigal Azrouel, L.A.M.B. and we spotted them at Erin Wasson's RVCA, too. [Huffington Post] Oh yes, and we also just saw them all over an American Apparel store this weekend. To top it all off, Tyra busted one out during the judging on "America's Next Top Model" the other night. Obviously, this new development leaves us hurt, angry and confused. You?

How do you feel about midriffs being all up in your face again?

Poll: Do You Wear Complicated Lingerie?

Posted by: Susannah Breslin 10:40AM, Thursday September 03rd 2009 Filed in: style, polls

I would love to wear lingerie like this. Hose, garters, panties. Beautiful, sophisticated, expensive. The whole high-end shebang. This is what I imagine every Parisian woman wears starting at age 18. But, I don't. I feel like I'd be like a bull in a china shop and rip those sheer hose to smithereens within minutes. Lingerie is so complicated. Or is that me? [Fashion Copious]

Poll: Who Gets The Nude Photos After A Breakup?

Posted by: Amelia McDonell-Parry 12:19PM, Monday August 31st 2009 Filed in: polls, sex

During her marriage to Erwin Cajamarca, Valeria Gentile allowed him to take photographs of her nude in a variety of sexual positions. Now that they're divorced, she's suing him for putting some of those photos online, resulting in a humiliating and cruel "invasion of her privacy." According to a divorce attorney, both partners legally own photographs taken during the course of a marriage and deciding who gets to keep them after the relationship ends is one of the more contentious issues discussed during divorce settlements.

Poll: You Just Queefed ... Now What?!?

Posted by: Susannah Breslin 9:00AM, Friday August 28th 2009 Filed in: polls, sex

Regretful Morning poses an age-old question for the dudes: "My Girlfriend Just Queefed, What Now?" Gee, dude. I don't know. Deal with it, maybe? Their suggestions: Pretend like it never happened (that works for us). Don't ask if she's OK (er, what?). Don't try to high-five her (uh, OK). All of which makes us wonder what a girl should do in this most indelicate of situations. (For those who are unclear on what queefing is: Read all about it.)

Poll: What Would You Pay A Man To Do For You?

Posted by: Simcha Whitehill 10:30AM, Tuesday August 11th 2009 Filed in: polls, sex

Hello, gorgeous. Why don't you sit back, relax, and let a man fulfill your every fantasy? But what, exactly, is that fantasy? Mind-blowing sex or charming conversation? I'm totally obsessed with HBO's "Hung", and not just because I'm waiting to see exactly what the show title is referring to. It's fascinating to watch women pay a man for "The Boyfriend Experience." According to "Hung," interviews with real call boys, and an escort service infomercial, women are looking for companionship over sex. What would you pay a man to do for you?

Poll: Which Heartthrob Is More Beautiful?

Posted by: Erin Flaherty 10:10AM, Wednesday July 15th 2009 Filed in: guys, polls

Just like middle-aged actresses must feel threatened when they're upstaged by ingenues, famous heartthrobs notice when hot younguns infiltrate the Hollywood scene, too. Perhaps no new face is getting more attention than Robert Pattinson, and Justin Timberlake admits he kind of knocks him out of the ballpark. In a Twitter exchange with his GF Jessica Biel, who asked him, "Why aren't you sexy like Robert Pattinson?" he responded, "Because God loved him more than me." Grain of salt, grain of salt. (Though it begs the question: If you're a celeb in a relationship, wouldn't you rather flirt via text rather than Twitter!? Privacy much?) But moving on to more important asks, which of these famously hot dudes does it for you? Are you still feeling JT? Or if you were in junior high, would an RPatz poster now be in your locker? [E!

Poll: Would You Let Your Man Rock Bud Gear?

Posted by: Leonora Epstein 1:45PM, Friday June 05th 2009 Filed in: style, polls

Here are a few looks from the new Supreme x Budweiser collection, set to hit the Web next week. The collection features a pretty standard mix of logo tees, and baseball caps, but then there's this look—a full-on button-up and hat combo to nourish one's inner Homer Simpson. While at first this shirt may seem like one of those magic eye tricks, taking a step back makes you wonder if you wouldn't be surprised seeing some hipster sporting it at a summer BBQ. What do you think of Bud's duds? [High Snobiety]

Poll: Can Guys Pull Off Hot Pink?

Posted by: Jessica Wakeman 10:15AM, Thursday June 04th 2009 Filed in: style, polls

Hot pink: it's not just for gay men and Paris Hilton anymore. The Wall Street Journal promises "man-genta" (hot pink to us ladies) will be everywhere on this fall's menswear. Sure, dudes like Kanye and Perry Farrell can own hot pink, but we think if Eminem attempted the trend, he'd look like an ass.

What do you think—can all guys pull off hot pink?

Rolling Stone’s Girl-On-Girl “Gossip Girl” Cover

Posted by: Amelia McDonell-Parry 12:00PM, Thursday March 19th 2009 Filed in: celebs

Gossip Girl On The Cover Of Rolling Stone

Speaking of leztastic publicity stunts—“Gossip Girl”‘s Blake Lively and Leighton Meester are on the cover of the new issue of Rolling Stone, sensually sharing an ice cream cone. Inside the magazine they also double-team a Twizzler and Meester gives her best blow job face (the rest of the cast is photographed as well). Obvi, photographer Terry Richardson’s intent was to be racy and suggestive and SCANDALOUS, but I can’t help but find it cheap and annoying. After all, if anyone was going to go gay, it would be Chuck and Nate, duh.
