It’s His Immune System That You Actually Want to... →
We’ve always assumed it was men’s sexy faces, toned bodies, and feminist sensibilities that we women lusted after, but it turns out we might just have the hots for their immune systems. A powerful immune system might not sound as enticing as six pack abs, but in the long run it’s probably more important. So it makes a fair amount of sense that we’d have developed a radar for who’s body can...

If you have a permanent smile, you can get an erection and vice versa.

The Spartan Warrior: The Truth Behind 5 Food Myths... →
thespartanwarrior:
It goes like this, a client looking to lead a healthier life hires me, a nutritionist, to help him improve his diet. I analyze what he’s been eating, factor in his food preferences, and together we create an eating plan that fits his lifestyle and goals.
Soon after, he’s noticeably leaner and more energetic a happy customer. That’s when the trouble starts. After a coworker...

The ‘Safe, Legal, Rare’ Illusion →
Liberal California, for instance, has a higher teen pregnancy rate than socially conservative Alabama; the Californian teenage birth rate is only lower because the Californian abortion rate is more than twice as high.
? Liberal California also likely has more immigrant minorities than Alabama, who, illegal or not, don’t make a lot of money and aren’t aware of their options?...

"Yale Could Just Say No to Covering Up Rape" →
peroquevaina:
One way to prevent rape would be to make it well known that people who do rape, with purposeful and malicious intent, will be expelled. Permanently. And by the way, President Levin? If the DKE fraternity was truly banned after the “no means yes, yes means anal” pledge chant last spring that triggered the Title IX complaint, why does their house appear to be occupied? And why...

The notion that educated women are less likely to... →
But over the past 30 years, these prejudices have largely disappeared. By 1996, intelligence and education had moved up to No. 5 on men’s ranking of desirable qualities in a mate. The desire for a good cook and housekeeper had dropped to 14th place, near the bottom of the 18-point scale. The sociologist Christine B. Whelan reports that by 2008, men’s interest in a woman’s education and...

Right now, I wish I lived off campus :(
I think I’m already a little burnt out from studying for this exam, which kind of sucks, but I’ve never had much of an attention span for studying. I just want to chill out, mostly by whining into my bf’s shoulder (but he’s not here wah) or COOKING. Right now I have the urge to cook and I can’t. Cooking for me is definitely therapeutic in a way that it’s kind...

should i cut dinner in two?
i have to eat dinner right after i work out due to my schedule (have to work out after lab, have to eat dinner before the dining hall closes), then an hour later i am ravenous (bc this is how my body works on strength training). i’m thinking of splitting my dinner in two and saving the other half for later. -___- three chicken breast for dinner is a little ridiculous, even for me.
