Is romance dead? You would think so from seeing the prolific over-sexualization of women in music videos and gratuitous sex scenes on television and film. Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Madonna, Beyoncé and Jennifer Lopez are only a few artists out of many that come to mind when I think of songstresses whose fashion motto is “barely ...
There have been plenty of amazing women making the news this year in politics, arts, and many other fields and they all deserve a mention. It’s hard to narrow them down, but here is a list of my top ten women of 2011. Enjoy! 1. Samira Ibrahim — Egyptian activist. Ms. Ibrahim was subjected to ...
To keep, or not to keep, that is the question. In movies, it seems like the answer is almost always the former. While our leading ladies may consider abortion, it’s just for a fleeting moment. The audience is left thinking that “to keep” is the only real choice. As a result, abortion barely gets its ...
Yet another sex myth has been debunked! As it turns out, men are not actually intimidated by vibrators. A study of over 3,000 Americans ages 18 to 60 found that it is only a myth. In fact, the only people who really think that sex toys scare away men are women! Thirty-seven percent of women ...
The new Avengers trailer is out (see below) and the movie promises excessive amounts of car explosions, life-threatening situations, gratuitous shots of cityscapes and epic “saving the world” battles. Fans of the original Marvel comic series will be happy to note that the Avengers consist of Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, The Incredible Hulk and ...
No mere boyfriend can compare to the leading men in romantic movies. We are so used to seeing kisses in the rain, impassioned speeches, and perfectly lit sex scenes that we begin to wonder why our life isn’t more like the final scene of our favourite movie. We’ve written on it before, but we thought ...
Helen Mirren has been in the biz for more than 40 years; she’s won an Academy Award and is one of a very small handful of women over 60 to have a (semi-) permanent spot on the big screen. If anyone is qualified to comment on the state of women in Hollywood, it’s Helen. She’s ...
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 ...
“Poor Ange,” you must be thinking, “She only makes 30 mill a movie.” While the problems of the rich and the famous often leave us feeling more bitterness than sympathy, the fact of the matter remains that Hollywood’s actresses earn far less than its actors. This week Forbes Magazine’s list of the top earning male ...
From the Royal Wedding to movies like Bridesmaids and Something Borrowed and back to classics like My Best Friend’s Wedding and The Runaway Bride, we have been shown what true love and marriage are supposed to look like since the dawn of the movies. But they will never come close to the real thing. Chick ...
