Titillating tips to seduce women to bed
Figuring out whether a woman is on the pill or not may help guys avoid unwanted pregnancy.
According to Men's Health, women on birth control blink 32 per cent more than those who aren't, Jezebel reported.
During this time men are advised to put on their toughest, most confident mug as they look at women. Because of the shift in hormone levels, research says, women on the Pill are more attracted to men with rugged features, such as strong, wide jaws."
"Stroke her forearm first. This area of the arm is packed with pleasure nerves that respond best to a touch travelling 1 to 10 centimetres per second... [to trigger] an area of the brain associated with trust and affection," the mag suggests.
Men who sweat can make use of this opportunity to turn a woman on, as your post-run sweat has androstadienone, which spikes her interest when she smells it.
If you want to know whether she is ready for sex or not, slowly and firmly flick your tongue against the palm of her hand. If she wipes it off down her clothes, your chance is gone.
You can also guess from the position of her feet. If she moves her feet away from her body, adopting a more open stance, you're golden. But if she crosses her legs or tucks them under her body, then you better clear up your intention.
As in case of foods, "According to new research, the smell of toast is a serious mood booster."
Eat some chocolate - it's caffeinated and so "can jolt the sex level." It's packed with phenylethylamine, which can "activate the brain's pleasure centers."
Another interesting and easiest tip is texting. "Girls like bold texts, too. So next time you're bored waiting in a queue for lunch, text her the rudest, naughtiest thing you can possibly think of and inform her of when exactly you plan to do it."
Last but not the least: girls are as interested in your pictures as you guys are from receiving them.

Does no sex mean a healthy relationship?
Twilight stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart have been trying to patch up after Kristen was photographed getting cozy with director Rupert Sanders in July. The couple has sought the help of a counsellor, who advised them to sign a no-sex pact. This means that even though the two share the same living space, they will sleep in separate rooms for a month while they 'work on communicating, healing wounds and trust exercises'. We explore whether this is a practical solution for couples.
It's advisable
City-based counsellor Ian Faria says this kind of advice is given to couples in troubled relationships. He says, "Both partners might have different sex desires — husbands might have a bigger one, while the wife, not so much. Taking a month-long sabbatical helps, because it frees the wife of sexual obligations and will help her gather her thoughts. Earlier, wives would take breaks every year and visit their parents' home with the children, which doesn't happen now. This lack of space can make it suffocating to be in a relationship."
Abstinence is good
Model Faith Panday thinks abstinence is a good thing and says, "Abstinence is probably the best decision to make while in a relationship. These days, love is replaced by sex, which, in turn, begets a string of negatives that our generation is getting used to, especially with what they see around them and on the big screen. But facades can change and mistakes can be reversed. If Robert Pattinson and Kirsten Stewart stay abstinent, good for them!"
It's all a gimmick
Fashion guru Prasad Bidapa thinks Robert and Kristen's no-sex pact might be a publicity stunt. "The timing seems suspect as their film is due for release soon. Nowadays, romance seems to be the most disposable thing. The personal lives of celebrities is always under scrutiny and they live under a lot of pressure, but when they don't get enough attention, they feel lost."

Why singles prefer food over sex
And of the 4,000 people who participated in the Love Bites: Dating and Dining survey, some were happy to sacrifice action between the sheets for salad.
32 per cent of those people were women compared to 16 per cent who were men.
But it is not just singles, in potentially unsatisfactory sexual relationships, who were willing to relinquish a year of loving.
The study interviewed extra 3,500 married individuals and despite being in a committed long-term relationship, 28 per cent chose their perfect meal over fun in the bedroom.
While a majority of respondents willing to sacrifice sex did so for steak and chocolate, some were comfortable with depriving themselves for the sake of a caprese salad, sushi and fresh fruit.
The puzzling results raise in turn, questions about the quality of the sex that those who answered in favour of food, are having.
"People often say things like they'd pick money or sleep or food over sex. If you find yourself picking food over sex, you need to approach sex a bit more like food and vary your diet," the Daily Mail quoted sex therapist and author Ian Kerner as telling MSNBC.
"I think this shows that people take sex for granted, or that they're not enjoying sex enough to really value it appropriately," he said.
He also pointed out that food might just be the reason that such people were not getting the most out of their sexual experience.
While chocolate and steak both have ingredients known to lift spirits, some food groups make us full and lethargic so what starts as a romantic candle-lit meal, ends in a night in front of the television.
In fact, a sense of adventure around food proved to be an important factor in attracting a mate as 66 per cent of singles said that they were put off by fussy eaters and 35 per cent admitted to being unimpressed by those who lacked food knowledge.
And 93 per cent of the respondents were adamant that they would prefer someone bad in the kitchen to a partner with no skills in the bedroom.
Does sex ever come with 'no strings attached'?
No one's getting hurt, so what's the problem? Well, there wasn't one until a couple of weeks ago. My friend was at the pub, had the prerequisite tequila and chips breath and was about to call her buddy when an acquaintance stopped her. "Are you sure you're okay with this?" the concerned sex-stopper asked. "Okay with what?" my friend wanted to know, scrolling through her phone contacts list to find 'Sexy Henry'. "You know, sex with someone who doesn't care." Wow. It was like she'd found a giant pin and popped my friend's fun balloon. Suddenly there were lots of strings attached. Her belief that the sex she'd been having with her friend was completely harmless was suddenly unravelling like a bargain bin negligee. "Aren't you scared of getting hurt?" the acquaintance pushed. "You know, when he meets someone else? A real girlfriend?" Nope. My friend hadn't been. She didn't want to be Sexy Henry's girlfriend. While they were very compatible sexually neither of them had any interest in actually dating. Was this in some way morally wrong? Should she want to be more than just his sex buddy? Was being someone's sex buddy in some way anti-feminist? The insinuation was that as a woman, my friend should want to be more than just this guy's occasional hook-up. That not wanting to be his girlfriend was in some way unfeminine. That she was lowering herself by being his sex plaything. That she was behaving in a masculine manner by not demanding a more regular relationship – even though she didn't want one.
It's amazing that these kind of moral conundrums still exist for women regarding sex and sexual behaviour. Two consenting adults can't decide to have uncomplicated sex without there being an underlying neediness on the side of the woman. Because women can't have uncomplicated sex, right? Sex is so tied up with hand-wringing emotional torment that if we don't actually want something more from someone we're sleeping with we're emotional cretins.
Another friend of mine is embroiled in a similar sexual minefield. She snogged a guy she fancies before finding out he has a girlfriend. Yes, he's a bad man. She and a group of friends then went out again and…they snogged. Again. Yes, bad friend. But really? She doesn't know his girlfriend, surely this is his problem not hers? Yet because this has happened twice or even three times now she feels a moral responsibility to confront it. Even though as far as she's concerned he's a nice chap, but a snog's a snog. He has a girlfriend. That's the end of it. But it's almost as if because she's a woman she has a responsibility to his girlfriend, when he hasn't addressed the matter at all. It's a kind of 1950's "Oh, he's a cad, isn't he?" indulgence towards men and sex. My friend doesn't want to hurt this guy's girlfriend, but then she's not, is she? He is. Why should she feel more responsibility as the woman? If the situations were reversed and it was a male friend of mine who was snogging a woman with a boyfriend would anyone feel as if he should be chastising himself for hurting the guy? It's almost as though because she doesn't actually want anything else from this guy she's in some way un-womanly, whereas he escapes all judgement. Which, in my humble opinion, is useless.
Most single girls use male pals for sex
The data showed that 19 per cent hopped into the sack ‘to have fun’, while 22 per cent said that the romps were ‘not planned’, and eight per cent hoped the fling might develop into something more.
“The idea of ‘friends with benefits’ is growing in popularity,” the Sun quoted Andy Barr of MyCelebrityFashion as saying.
“Perhaps people shouldn’t automatically think all women want to settle down right away and have a serious relationship,” Barr added.
The poll found only 29 per cent of the girls stayed friends with ex partners, as one in five said their best pal was a man.
Clothes don’t matter, attitude does!
'via Blog this'
Men hit more on women who are dressed down, claims a recent report. But for men in the city, attitude is the deciding factor.
If a recent news report is to be believed, men tend to find women in casual or run-down clothes more approachable than the glam divas. But in Mumbai, it's a different story. While men in the city appreciate girls who are well-dressed, they say approachability depends more on a girl's attitude than her clothes. Here are some of the major factors that make girls approachable or otherwise for men.
Look me in the eye
Guys say a girl who isn't willing to make eye contact won't get much attention. Rahul Shah, a banker, explains, "Whether it's a mall or a party, if a girl isn't willing to look you in the eye, it means she isn't interested. And no matter where you approach such a girl, she's most likely to snub you. I would think twice about approaching a girl who has been frowning for a long time or seems lost in her thoughts."
Body talk
Body language also tells a man whether a girl is approachable or not. "If a girl is standing with her hands folded, her face turned away from the crowd, I would think twice about going to her. I'd rather choose a girl who's laughing out loud with her buddies. On a subconscious level, body language does convey a message and we take it into account while talking to a girl."
Looks do matter
Glam divas may be high maintenance, but men are most likely to be attracted to them. Paresh Nair, a management student, says, "No one goes to a party looking for a girl wearing sports shoes. Clothes do matter, but they aren't the sole deciding factor. Most guys won't hit on a girl who comes to a party in her pyjamas. At the same time, it doesn't help if a girl is overdressed at a bowling alley. I am sure women feel the same way about men, too."
Casual, not shabby
Most men say girls who dress shabbily don't impress them. "There's a very thin line between being casual and shabby. The out-of-the-bed look is different from actually just waking up and getting out of your house. It's good to be around a girl who doesn't stare into the mirror all the time, but every guy wants a girl who takes care of her appearance and is presentable," says fashion design student Jai Aggarwal.

Women who flirt get better deal
Results from the first academic study of the technique shows that it can increase success rates in negotiations with both men and women by as much as a third.
Effective feminine charm combines flirtation with friendliness and women who get it right can get around 20 percent off the price of a car, according to the study.
But getting the right balance between flirting and being friendly is vital, because women who are too straightforwardly friendly lose out, according to Laura Kray who led the study.
Researchers from the University of California, Berkeley, and the London School of Economics, carried out four separate experiments to investigate female charm, the newspaper added.
They say that, while there is a commonly held assumption that feminine charm boosts a woman's effectiveness in negotiations, it has not until now been investigated by researchers.
What Men Find Sexy About Women
1. She's Playful
Women who take themselves too seriously are seriously not sexy. There's something about a woman who is comfortable enough to be playful, flirty, and not worry that she is risking her reputation. Please don't confuse playful with silly. Silly women who are clowning for attention are vexing. In fact, one man suggested that playfulness is a great sign of maturity—a woman who loves life and isn't ashamed to show it.
2. She's Beautiful
We had a solid discussion about what this means, and the standards were all over the map. Most every man agreed that a beautiful woman a) dresses in a way that flatters her figure, b) puts effort into grooming, and c) cares how men perceive her, even if the end result is very laid-back and simple. There were few absolutes, except to say that a woman who thinks that going through the effort to look nice is somehow beneath her probably won't be sexy to our test group.
3.She's a Grown-Up About Things Related to Sex
Some men were comfortable with sex only after marriage. Some men were comfortable with it much earlier in the relationship. But all of the men wanted a woman who is comfortable talking maturely about sex when the time is right.
4. She Likes and Understands Men
You might say, "Don't all women who are dating like men?" Not according to this group. Women who know how men function and love them for it are very sexy. There's something about giving a man the rope he needs to pursue his passions that makes a woman irresistible.
5. She's Affectionate
It is hard to overestimate the impact of a physical connection to most men. A woman who understands this and gives affection freely is very sexy.
6. She Knows How to Say "Thank You"
Whatever your personal policies, early dating for most men is a time when they are spending money and making plans to arrange a nice evening. Our men greatly valued a woman who was able to say, "That dinner was fantastic," and appreciated the work that went into planning the evening. A woman who has a spirit of gratitude signals to a man, "You can make me happy," which is a primal component to attraction.
10 Unlikely Places to Pull a Woman
A chance encounter can often happen in the most unusual of locations and simply being in the right place at the right time can mean you might meet a new clutch, no matter how random the surroundings...
Airport terminal
Even if she's not that beautiful, there's no doubt that a good sex with a lovely lady in the departure lounge will mean that delayed low-budget airline flight is just that little bit easier to stomach.
Dog or cat rescue centre
Women get really soppy when they're in the company of helpless puppies or doe-eyed kittens so get yourself along to the local animal rescue centre pronto to see what's on offer.
Sure, the stench of puppy poo will be unbearable and your eyes will weep with the acrid odour of small furry animal wee but just imagine the hugging potential that'll come out of all this emotion-charged tiny creature shenanigans.
There's bound to be at least one you'll find irresistible and, you never know, you might just get a pet into the bargain!
Parachute jumping
Don't expect much in the looks department with this pick-up method either as a high-speed descent is notorious for distorting the features of even the most delicious of high-flying heartbreakers.
Online
It used to be something that few blokes would own up to, but online dating has become an acceptable and essential part of the meeting women process nowadays.
No longer do you have to sniff whenever one of your workmates blathers on about how he's pulled this amazing Finnish girl over the electronic marketplace that is the internet. Simply log-on, click and select and you'll soon be matching his Finn with some female fun of your own.
Underwater
This is a chance to combine exotic locations with even more exotic women, although be wary of those who seem overtly keen on carrying your oxygen tanks. Better to sink below the waves with a petite sea soul named Sandy rather than a burly man-eater called Randy, right? Then again...
Motorway services
Tired of life in the fast lane? Well, pull off and wind down over coffee and doughnuts at the services.
While some see the motorway services as the bane of a motorist's life, these off-the-highway haunts can be a haven for picking up ladies who've lost the desire to listen to Billy Connolly on their sat-nav anymore and want to talk to a real man.
However, don't be tempted to take her for a stroll through the 'Snack n Shop' before you head back for the highway as it'll leave a decidedly nasty dent in your debit card.
Sauna, steam room or jacuzzi
The added benefit is that steam can soften the features of even the most chiselled of ladies, so after subjecting yourself to 40 degrees and counting temperatures for longer than is wise, plus a few ice-cold beers, you'll be thinking that you've arrived in heaven.
Failing that, you'll walk away a few pounds lighter, so it's a win-win situation either way.
Queue for the toilets at a music festival
You'd be surprised who you can bump into while you're up to your ankles in mud at any one of the many music festivals that run throughout the year.
Sure, these aren't exactly salubrious surroundings we're dealing with here, but a few well-chosen words and the offer of your last remaining toilet roll may be enough to get her to come back and inspect your inflatable mattress for its unrivalled bouncability levels.
Maternity ward
But turn up at the maternity ward to see the cuddly offspring of a relative or friend and you may well be rewarded with a chance encounter with one of the family friends. And chances are she's gorgeous. The baby doesn't look bad either.
Artificial ski slope
The humble ski slope can be found in numerous locations up and down the country and, if nothing else, they're a great laugh and ideal for relieving work-related stress.
However, get yourself down to one of these faux-piste fantasy lands and you'll also bundle headlong into countless beauties attempting to get their moves up to scratch prior to a white-wine spritzer-fuelled weekend break in Chamonix.
Then again, they may be attempting to add a splash of excitement to an otherwise humdrum afternoon of shopping in the local Arndale Centre. No matter, get your ski's on and show 'em who's the daddy!

Now, backless, strapless Bra for Big Assets
Renowned department store, Selfridges, is now stocking the first of its kind adhesive bras made solely out of silicone, which cost 35 pounds.
Manufacturer Fashion Forms claims the bra's one-wire system will hug the body, preventing it from slipping off and can be reused up to 25 times.
But Page 3 stunner Kelly Hall who is a huge 30DD and has tried the new bra says she would better stick to her old one.
"This is pretty much impossible. My assets are jiggling about all over the place. I may as well not wear anything at all," the Sun quoted her as saying after running wearing the bra.
"The bra sticks to your entire thing but as I become sweaty I can feel the bottom of it coming unstuck. It makes me feel nervous that it will slip off completely," she said.
"I have never been able to buy a backless, strapless bra before because of my huge size.
"The idea is great but unfortunately it wouldn't last even a night in a busy club with me pulling off my finest dance moves. And, in my opinion, it couldn't be reused 25 times.
"I think it would be fine for a dinner date or a quiet drink in your local - but for anything more physical I'll stick to my old one," the model concluded.
