Now that's what we call family style!

For their new study, the Singen-based Institute of Condom Consultancy asked 10,500 men in 25 countries to measure their penis and enter the number into a database. But my favorite part of the Reuters article on Yahoo! News is where it says:
"The results show Frenchmen on average claim to need 15.48-cm (6.09-inch) long condoms, about 3 cm longer than Greeks, whose condom-size requirement was the most modest. He did not want to comment on how honest he thought the Frenchmen had been in reporting the data."
What's the most popular free activity among British people? Window shopping maybe? Gossiping? Nope, according to a new YouGov study of 2,000 people, it's S-E-X:
"The Scots were most amorous with 43 percent choosing sex over other pastimes, compared with 35% in South England. Around one in 10 respondents to the survey said their favourite free activity was window shopping and six percent chose going to a museum as the cheapest way to pass the time. But the sexes differed on their priorities, with women preferring to gossip while men had sex firmly at the top of their list."
(The BBC News also noted that AIDS charity the Terrence Higgins Trust, which published the survey, were happy to report that recent figures showed an increase in condom sales, as well.)
Fine, so sex won't actually save you money. You won't get a coupon in the mail or anything. There's no sex rebate. But my friend Lindsey says that whenever she and her boyfriend leave their apartment, it always seems to cost them an automatic $100 in food, beer and/or impulse purchases. So, if you consider that sex is a way to pass the time without leaving home and entering the world of consumer temptation... Oh, you get the idea!
(Now if that isn't an "I had to wonder..." headline!)
I just received a press release from Divorce360.com about cheating:
"A new study suggests between 40 to 70 percent of partners cheat on their spouses, making infidelity the new norm in a relationship. 'It's very high,' according to University of Montreal researcher Genevieve Beaulieu-Pelletier. [But] the results don't surprise Divorce360.com expert Tina B. Tessina, Ph.D., a psychotherapist: 'Contrary to what we'd like to believe, I think there's always been more infidelity than faithfulness,' Tessina said. 'America has a huge prostitution industry, for one thing, that few people ever talk about. Who's keeping it going? Add to that the one-night stands when people are on business trips, affairs at the office, and all the other sexual encounters married people can have. It is not a new phenomenon. It has been going on for all of history.'"Does Tessina speak the truth? Here's your chance to come clean:
"'Tis the season to give a betty kit!
The holiday season makes everyone happy, you must admit!
Holiday betty comes in colors of two!
Buy love betty (red) for a friend
and a lucky betty (green) for you!
These yuletide colors
come with holiday charmcils (stencil shapes) - free!
Forget misletoe....
Shape your betty with a star,
an angel or a christmas tree!
A perfect stocking stuffer,
secret santa or office party present!
Give the gift of betty and
you won't have overspent!"
