What's the worst pet name you've ever been called?

nospam@example.com () — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 19:46:45 -0800

Let's be honest with each other here. The cute wittle names we call and are called by our significant others--our private, Seinfeld-ian Shmoopies-- are often dorky, weird, and just really embarrassing. Though my husband and I have currently landed in a perfectly respectable "Baby" stage, I've definitely been a "Muffin," a "Love" (British boyfriend), a "Pumpkin," and once, much to my disliking, "My lil' Cow."*

I bring this up because of a reader post from earlier this week ("He refers to me as Ole Girl...") about a troublesome pet name that...

7 Book Characters Hotter Than Edward Cullen

nospam@example.com () — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 18:58:47 -0800

Like it or not, Edward Cullen is the fictional hottie du jour. Never before have women been so enamored by a sparkly, lovesick centenarian torn between protecting his girlfriend and eating her for dinner. Despite Edward's edgy persona and "angelic" good looks, we're not convinced that he's the literary dreamboat that thousands of Twilight fans have made him out to be. What can we say? Book hotties of the past have set the bar pretty high, and we're not entirely signed on to the "being watched through our bedroom windows" fantasy. Before Edward Cullen swooped into our libraries and bookstores, we had these male literary characters to dazzle us.

Brazilian company LindeLucy Lingerie has just put out a collection of underwear called “Find Me If You Can.” Each of the pieces—ranging from bras to teddies to garter belts—is equipped with a built-in, pager-sized GPS system that allows those with the password to track your whereabouts online.

4 Ways To Get Your Guy To Listen

Every couple gets into fights; unfortunately in my experience, men can't concentrate and women are great at concentrating. The disconnect is that guys don't listen. If we knew how to speak to one another and listen, we'd cut down on the fighting/annoyances.

Here are some pointers on keeping your guy engaged.
