Poll: How Would You Feel If A Boyfriend Took Another Woman Lingerie Shopping?

Posted by: Amelia McDonell-Parry 8:00AM, Tuesday November 17th 2009 Filed in: style, polls

A friend recently asked me this question and I was surprised to discover I had mixed feelings on the matter. On one hand, I would appreciate my boyfriend getting a female opinion, as men's taste in fashion -- even the under-the-clothes kind -- can be questionable. On the other hand, it would weird me out to have my guy asking for another woman's opinion on what's sexy. I mean, does he want her to try it on so he can see it in the flesh? Eww. (Double-eww if this is a sister.) Plus, it's not like all women have the same taste in lingerie. If that were true, Frederick's Of Hollywood would not be in business, because I think that crap is tacky. Hmm. What about you?

How would you feel if a boyfriend took another woman lingerie shopping?

Grateful! He needs all the help he can get, or else I'll be donning crotchless edible panties!
Whatevs. So long as she is a longtime friend who he's never been sexually interested in and vice versa, I'm cool with him getting a second opinion.
Annoyed. Doesn't he know my taste in undergarments by now?
Pissed. My lingerie, particularly the sexy stuff he buys for me, is our business, no one else's. Who is this chick anyway and why is she so helpful?
I would be more focused on the fact that he was buying me lingerie as a gift to begin with. Is this a gift for me or for you, chump?
My boyfriend actually bought me a gift? Awesome!

Poll: What Do You Enjoy As Much As Sex?

Posted by: Amelia McDonell-Parry 5:20PM, Friday November 06th 2009 Filed in: polls, sex

According to a survey conducted by Bacardi Breezers, women enjoy talking with their girlfriends as much as they enjoy having sex. I love my friends, but that is definitely not the case for me. A new episode of "Mad Men," a fresh copy of Lucky and a bowl of mac 'n' cheese, however? I might make the old "I'm tired excuse" to spend the evening indulging in that rather than sex. What about you?

What do you enjoy as much as sex?

Food. I love to try new restaurants and dare my palate as much as I like to get creative between the sheets.
Shopping. That skip in my step after I've purchased a new pair of shoes is just like my post-roll-in-the-hay stroll.
Massages, facials, etc. An hour-long rubdown followed by a mani-pedi and some peace and quiet sounds just as good as knockin' boots.
Traveling. Visiting new lands is just as exciting as getting freaky with the natives.
Music, movies, TV, and books -- going to see a new band play or having a movie marathon gives me the same thrill as gettin' it on.
Talking and hanging out with friends. Bacardi got it right!
Other -- I'll tell you what gets me off as much as sex in the comments!
Nothing. Absolutely nothing is as good as sex. Including voting in polls!

Poll: What Would Get You To Take Your Ex Back?

Posted by: Simcha Whitehill 9:45AM, Wednesday November 04th 2009 Filed in: relationships, polls

Yesterday, I poured over Wendy’s “15 Signs You’re Over Your Ex,” and then immediately felt tempted to catch up on my Facebook “reading.” I’m weak, weak I tell you! I know I already cried on your shoulder about the “Signs You Should Take Your Ex Back” -- and then totally messed them up myself. Guess we all make mistakes. But I wonder, what if he had brought me flowers or even a box of candy one of those times he showed up at my door? Would a simple gesture have convinced me to give it one more go? That’s what Japanese artist Mashairo Minami bets. He just won first place at the Tokyo Midtown Awards for his Samurai hair-shaped candies, which say “I’m sorry, baby” oh-so sweetly. Since a Samurai’s badass chonmage (top knot of hair) is also a mark of his pride and status, giving you the lock, let alone an edible piece, is supposed to show any woman r-e-s-p-e-c-t. Now, if a guy goes and cuts his real hair off, we might think he’s gone crazy, but would a token of gummi candy do the trick for you ladies?

What would get you to take an ex back?

The way back to my heart is through my stomach. Candies, wining and dining, a special home-cooked meal, etc. Yep, that does the trick.
Candy is nice, but I'm into jewelry and fancy cars. You think Kim from "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" takes Big Poppa back for less?
It's hard to admit when I'm wrong. If he wants to talk it out, I know he cares and that's the only reason to stay together.
I'm in it for the make-up sex. If he says sorry and flashes those puppy dog eyes, that's good enough for me!
Nothing. If I take him back, I'm lying down and giving up when I just need to move on.
He has to do something super romantic, something so brag-worthy that Jennifer Aniston would want to star in the movie version of our love story.

Waaah, I feel so left out! I took my little nieces trick-or-treating on Halloween and (thank heavens) slutty Halloween costumes haven't weaseled their way to preschool yet. It's like "sexy" Halloween costumes never even happened! So fill me in on the dirty details of Saturday night, my Frisky friends:

Poll: Which Unconventional Location Is Best For Sex?

Posted by: Annika Harris 9:00AM, Tuesday October 27th 2009 Filed in: polls, sex

Always doin' it in your bedroom can get boring and, thus, take a toll on your sex life. To increase your pleasure, think of the one place in your home you thought could never be comfortable or stimulating for a steamy sex session and figure out how you can work it.

Poll: What’s Your Pubic Hair Style?

Posted by: Susannah Breslin 8:50AM, Thursday October 22nd 2009 Filed in: polls, sex

Ah, pubic hair. As if styling the hair on your head isn't enough, the 21st century woman must also focus her attentions on her pubic hair stylings. Some men prefer the landing strip. Sometimes, unruly pubes cause controversy. Of course, you can always go topiary. And let's not forget that LED merkin. So many options!

Poll: Does True Love Mean Sharing Your Email Password?

Posted by: Jessica Wakeman 12:30PM, Wednesday October 21st 2009 Filed in: relationships, polls

We share a bed, we share our cooties, we share a toothbrush (sometimes!). So, if my boyfriend asked me to, I'd tell him every single password of mine. That's just true intimacy, 21st century-style. Right?

Do you share your passwords with your significant other?

Poll: How Much Is Too Much PDA?

Posted by: Amelia McDonell-Parry 11:30AM, Monday October 19th 2009 Filed in: polls, sex

This weekend I had dinner with a friend of mine who's having a bit of a problem with some friends. Two of her pals have started dating and are so, so, so in love and make sure everyone knows it by making out, snuggling, and pawing each other in public constantly. It's making everyone around them deeply uncomfortable, though, on the whole, my friend is very pleased that they're dating. She's not sure how to handle it, as it's not easy to say to a friend, "Your constant necking in front of me is grossing me out." So, she's taken to avoiding them, unless there are a lot of other people around. But it got me thinking -- how much is too much PDA? I'm dating someone new and we smooch in public, though not in front of friends, and I feel fine about it. What do you think -- when does PDA cross a line?

Poll: How Often Do You Watch Porn?

Posted by: Amelia McDonell-Parry 10:00AM, Tuesday October 13th 2009 Filed in: polls, sex

According to Don Q's Lady Data, 43 percent of men look at porn on a daily basis, while 41 percent look at it weekly. Only 11 percent look at it monthly, and 5 percent never look at it at all (I would guess a portion of that is, uh, LYING). Frankly, these stats don't surprise me, but they may surprise you. What I'm more interested in knowing is how often you gals look at porn. My theory is that men would be shocked at how much porn women actually want. Prove me right!

Poll: Should You Dump A Guy Who Won’t Go Down On You?

Posted by: Amelia McDonell-Parry 9:00AM, Tuesday October 06th 2009 Filed in: polls, sex

In the November issue of Glamour, the mag polled readers about whether you should break up with a guy who won't give oral sex. Our friends Em and Lo argued that, no, you shouldn't dump him because he may dislike the "texture or flavor or scent" or he may not know what to do down there -- "cut him some slack," they suggest, so long as he doesn't expect to receive oral sex. That sounded like a fairly diplomatic way of looking at it, but the fact is the majority of women get off on oral sex, not intercourse. If you were dating someone who wouldn't go down on you, would you give him the ol' heave-ho?

Poll: Do You Know Any Men Who Wear Manties?

Posted by: Amelia McDonell-Parry 8:10AM, Friday October 02nd 2009 Filed in: guys, polls

There's a multi-bajillion dollar industry dedicated to sewing together tiny scraps of flimsy fabric, calling it a fancy French word, and selling it to women -- so why shouldn't there be a lingerie market for men? Oh, but wait! There is! (Albeit a less lucrative one.) Manties are, you guessed it, "panties" for men that mimic the lacy, frilly, girly, and frothy ideal of lingerie for women. I'm pretty sure you know someone (though you may not know you know) who wears them. Without giving away specifics, I have known of one in my own life, possibly two -- a former colleague and, I suspect, a family member as well, had a drawer full of lacy underthings that he either wore or sniffed. So, after you've gotten over the shock of seeing such atrocious undergarments for men (and the fact that they appear so cheap and flammable), fess up in our poll.

Do you know any men who wear manties?

According to a survey of 15,000 women, German men are considered the worst lovers in bed, thanks to poor hygiene, while “lazy” Englishmen and “too quick to finish” Swedes came in second and third.

Who Wore It Best? Leighton Vs. Alexa In Philip Lim

Posted by: Nina Carbone 4:20PM, Thursday September 17th 2009 Filed in: style, polls

Spotted: Two super-chic ladies, one shared Phillip Lim dress. Yesterday, Alexa Chung and Leighton Meester showed up for the Phillip Lim spring 2010 show in, what else, a Phillip Lim dress—the exact same one. But, on first inspection, it's not that obvious, mostly because they each have such individual, singular styles.

Poll: What’s The Most Amount Of Sex You’ve Had In One Day?

Posted by: Amelia McDonell-Parry 12:50PM, Thursday September 17th 2009 Filed in: polls, sex

You know when you just start sleeping with someone and you just cannot get enough of them? Where your body just cannot turn off the horny-ness and you just want to do it all the time? A friend of mine once had sex with her now-husband EIGHT TIMES in one day. Impressive for her, even more impressive for him, given that the male body is not exactly built to get it up that many times in a short span of time. Anyway, it got me thinking -- what's the most amount of sex you've had in one day? I'll go on record. Five. Boo-ya.

A friend of mine just got engaged this weekend -- congrats! -- and is wondering what the protocol is when it comes to informing ex-boyfriends of this big news. I get where she's coming from. If you're friendly with an ex, should you let him know personally before he finds out via the rumor mill? Or is it presumptuous to assume that he would even care? So, where do you stand?

Poll: Do You Use Lube?

Posted by: Amelia McDonell-Parry 2:30PM, Friday August 21st 2009 Filed in: polls, sex

Earlier this week Jessica wrote about "The 10 Things Men Forget To Do During Sex." One of them sparked a little bit of debate amongst our commenters -- lube use. She advised men to remember to use lube and that, in general, women like to be as wet as they can get. Some of you agreed with us. But QTGirl disagreed:

"I don’t like to use a lot lube because it makes my man feel I’m more into it than I may be. When it starts getting a little drier he knows it’s time to switch things up to get it going again. To me, it’s like faking an orgasm -- using lots of lube doesn’t teach him to use a multidimensional approach to lovemaking."

Others said they simply didn't need lube. When the rest of us Frisky girls chatted about it, we discovered we were just as split. So -- where do you stand on lube?
