A new study shows that 80 percent of Australian women wear bras that don’t fit. A separate study had similar results, with 85 percent of women wearing the wrong bra. We all like to tell ourselves that our bras fit perfectly fine. Because, let’s face it, fitting rooms suck and we want to get out ...

I had all sorts of things to prepare before a job interview this week. I’m sure you can relate. I had to update my portfolio, brush up on the work lingo no one really uses outside interviews, memorize the company’s website and absolutely everything the interviewers have done or will do in the duration of ...

Attention ladies everywhere! Dennis Rodman will be holding tryouts for a topless women’s basketball team that he himself will coach. Is it offensive? Charitable? Funny? Whatever it is, it’s not a joke. Topless Basketball is actually happening. The idea started out as a classic story of rivalry: Rodman overheard that another strip club, Rick’s Cabaret, ...

Breasts can be problematic, especially large ones, especially if you are an athlete. This is a particular problem for superheroes. They are some of the most athletic people in the world, and in addition to running super fast and swimming at super speeds, they also fly. So when it comes to drawing these fierce females, ...

The act is far from sexual, but there’s something playful about a hot guy reminding you that you’re due for a breast exam. It makes an ordinary and mundane chore seem more exciting, like flipping your calendar every month to reveal another hunky male firefighter. The new Rethink Breast Cancer campaign stimulates women’s visual senses ...

Rathika Sitsabaiesan has been called “the most compelling of the new crop of young NDP MPs” of Canada. The first Tamil-Canadian MP, she “exudes the poise, organizing skills and confidence of an old-school political veteran,” writes The Globe and Mail. Too bad her boobs are considered too voluptuous for the political world. Sitsabaiesan’s Parliamentary profile ...

It’s not often that a day goes by without hearing the word “penis.” Hey, I’m not complaining. Austin Powers had some funny euphemisms for it, but lately, I find that I want it raw and uncensored (the word or the actual flesh and blood). And this is just what’s on the menu this fall. I’m ...

Although medicine continues to make tremendous leaps and bounds (just look at Charla Nash’s new face), it’s certainly not infallible. Amy Colton is just one woman who has first hand experience of its imperfections. When she hit 40, she was diligent about getting regular mammograms. But seven years after her first one, she discovered the ...

Breast implants have been declared safe after a two day discussion about the procedure by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Hooray! That means we can all go out and buy ourselves an extra cup size or two, right? Wrong. The FDA’s statement of “safety” is misleading, and frankly a bit suspicious. The department’s chief ...

Babies from around the world filled their bellies with milk this weekend to mark the end of World Breastfeeding Week. In over 170 different countries, moms breastfed their little ones to spread awareness about the benefits of breastfeeding and break a world record for the most women breastfeeding simultaneously. The event, appropriately titled “The Big ...
