Root For Your Guy's Sport Team - If They Win, So Do You (in the Bedroom)!

DearSugar — Wed, 03 Sep 2008 08:00:00 -0700

If you're in love with a sports fan, it's time to put on your baseball hat, football helmet, or basketball jersey. Do whatever it takes to root for your man's favorite team, because a recent poll discovered that 30 percent of US men think sex is better after their team wins. The same poll also found that 10 percent said they had bad sex after their team suffered a loss, and some guys don't even want to have sex at all because they're too stressed out and wired to be in the mood. One in four male sports fans said that they'd even voluntarily give up sex for a month if it guaranteed a major win at the end of the season, and 11 percent would give up sex "for however long it takes."

The point here is that women underestimate just how important sports are to a guy. The bond he has to a team probably started when he was a little, watching sports with his dad, so it's something he's been tied to for most of his life. His favorite team was his first love before he found you, so you can understand why his emotions are so closely connected to it. I know it's frustrating to see your guy spend hours upon hours each week staring at the TV, but it may help to show him a little sympathy when his team loses - he might find it very sexy when you yell at the TV too!

Justin Bobby Is a Real Winner

It's long been known that "bad boys" make good girls go ga-ga. But what's the appeal anyway? Justin Bobby is the quintessential "bad boy" on The Hills. I can't find any redeeming qualities in him, except for the fact that he's a great source of amusement- from a distance. Can boyfriend be any more self-involved and publicly piggish? Yes, he can. And watch out ladies, his type is everywhere.

Dear Poll: Who Do You Root for?

DearSugar — Fri, 09 Nov 2007 13:00:00 -0800

For some reason, I like winners to win. I like to see the jock dating the head of the cheerleading squad, but I have a lot of friends who are always rooting for the underdog - they want the self-proclaimed nerd to take the most popular girl in school to the prom. I'm not sure what it says about me that I want the champs to keep winning, but what I want to know is, who do you root for? The underdog or the champion?

Harsh, dude. But I guess what the Stanford Loser Research Group says, goes. (From the geniuses at The Onion.)

Say What? Writer on Signs Your Online Date's a Loser

"I made a list of warning signs. Among them: any guy who has his shirt off in his main photo. Any guy who has his arms around two women, and they're not his sisters. Any guy who lists his butt as his best feature, ironically or not. And any guy who uses the word 'lady' in the first email."

- In September's Allure magazine, AJ Jacobs, author of The Guinea Pig Diaries: My Life as an Experiment, reveals what he learned about men when he pretended to be a beautiful nanny looking for a date online. Some men were sleazy, some were adorable, and some (with the aforementioned profiles) were probably losers.

...on the bus:

(Woman on cellphone): "So do you know what the weight minimum is for that TV show, The Biggest Loser?"
(Person on the other end): ??
(Woman on cellphone): "Well, because Amy wants to be on the show, and she's afraid she doesn't weigh enough."
(Person on the other end)?
(Woman on cellphone): "Yeah, she wants to gain weight so she can get on the show."

Sunday Confessional: She's Never Been Kissed

TresSugar — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 03:00:00 -0700

We're scouring the juicy (but anonymous!) secrets posted on Truu Confessions and letting you weigh in. This week, a confessor admits to never being kissed!

"I'm almost 25 and I've never been kissed. I realize I'm not the oldest person to never have been kissed, but I'm just about the oldest person I know of personally. Recently it's gotten bad though. I see guys who I'm not necessarily even attracted to, (or who aren't even straight!) and I just want to grab them and plant one on them, just to know what it feels like. I hate feeling like such a pitiful loser. And I hate the waiting. And waiting. And waiting. And. . ."

Do you think this is a big deal?

Are You a Bad Loser?

DearSugar — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 16:00:00 -0700

David Beckham is quoted in the September issue of Men's Health as saying, "I'm a really bad loser. It stays with me for a while. I always take it quite personally when we don't win as a team or I don't win in everything else I do." Since he's a professional athlete, I understand the desire to win as a team, but when it comes to our personal lives, I think experiencing some loss is actually a good thing. Of course, it's never fun to be a defeated, but knowing how to cope with not being the best at everything, every time, can really be a character-building realization. I'm sure we all know our fair share of poor sports, but tell me, are you a bad loser?

iPhone App Helps Men Keep Score of Chicks They've Scored

TresSugar — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 15:00:00 -0700

Pepsi's Amp Up energy drink (another one?!) has created a free iPhone app that gives players "up-to-the-minute info, feeds, lines" so that they can talk to their favorite kinds of women - "24 in all."

Basically, men can either get tips before they score, or they can upload details of their hookups as a result of these indubitably useful apps after they score. Nice touch, Pepsi.

I would rename this the "wishful thinking app." Because what guy who would ask his phone how he should speak to a "punk" woman because she's "staring holes into him" is really scoring at all? I love when the guy in the commercial clicks on the punk cartoon girl and it takes him to a definition of punk ("Punk rock is a genre that . . ."). Wow.

This app may try to help a man score one of 24 types of women, but it seems to be marketed to only one kind of dude: a loser.

(Tell GeekSugar the weirdest iPhone app you've ever seen and read about Pepsi's official apology.)

Glenn Beck Is A Loser

Way to show your ass while inviting a tabloid editor to show hers! I had to look this loser up to find out who would be so rude as to ask a young female editor, who's talking about AI Antonella Barba's internet nudie pics, whether she'd like him to film her some time. Grow up, you tool! (Excuse my uncharacteristic lack of subtlety...haha.)
