<p>Since there were numerous emails regarding this video which I mentioned on the <a title="STYLE: Pregnant Eva Herzigova Channels Marilyn Monroe For Brian Atwood – [VIDEO]" href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/style-pregnant-eva-herzigova-channels-marilyn-monroe-for-brian-atwood-video" target="_blank"><em><strong>Eva Herzigova</strong></em></a> video I dug it up to post it for you all to see. This video by designer <em><strong>Brian Atwood</strong></em> is, well simply put gorgeous, edgy, and we figure that the nude <em><strong>Candice Swanepoel</strong></em> is the one playing the voyeur. The real question is does it really matter when we&#8217;re catching glimpses of her bare ass and her writhing about on top of and around nude guys and watching porno?<span id="more-15592"></span></p>
<p><a href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Candice-Swanepoel6_514083S1.jpg" rel="lightbox" > <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-15595" alt="Candice-Swanepoel6_514083S1" src="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Candice-Swanepoel6_514083S1.jpg" width="640" height="320" /> </a></p>
<p>Can we say absolutely gorgeous, sexy and sexual woman? Well apparently we can! Swanepoel is certainly an &#8216;it&#8217; girl. Whatever IT is, she has it! This piece is very much the departure from the bright, cutesy type stuff we&#8217;re usedto seeing this angel doing. Here; in between watching herself in various passionate states alone and with a couple of males she seems to indulge a bit in seeing herself on video Candice stalks about in Brian&#8217;s sleek and extremely sexy shoes.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/elle-brian-atwood-sexy-campaign-fall-lgn.jpg" rel="lightbox" > <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-15597" alt="elle-brian-atwood-sexy-campaign-fall-lgn" src="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/elle-brian-atwood-sexy-campaign-fall-lgn.jpg" width="640" height="384" /> </a></p>
<p>This video has this severe &#8220;vamp&#8221; look. Candice certainly makes it clear that she has what it takes to become a full fledged High Speed Diva! The variety of footwear she wears is pretty damn great as well, injecting color and texture into this mostly dark and heavy video which rather reminds me of the 80&#8242;s film &#8216;Sliver&#8217; starring Billy Baldwin and Sharon Stone. But I digress. This video is is hot and we can certainly see why it was banned, which makes it all the more fun to play with!</p>

<p>What’s the one word that comes to mind when men and women think of Valentine’s Day? <b>Pressure.</b></p>
<p>According to Robert Manni, author of <i>The Guys’ Guy’s Guide to Love</i>, Valentine’s Day can be one of the most stressful holidays of the year. If you are single, Valentine’s Day reminds you very clearly of your relationship status, making you feel less than lovey-dovey. And if you’re in a relationship, then you have to step up your game and deliver the goods &#8211; big time.</p>
<p><b>Advice for the singles out there:<span id="more-15035"></span></b></p>
<p>Some experts say that February 14th is the best night for single ladies to get lucky. That’s if they can rally the troops and muster up the moxie for a manhunt. So, if you are a single guy, <b>get your butt out there!</b>  And when you hit the bars keep your eyes focused on those ladies on the lookout and off the hockey game playing on the big screen.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/hearts-and-kisses-wink-wink-copy_resize.jpg" rel="lightbox" > <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-15045" alt="hearts and kisses wink wink copy_resize" src="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/hearts-and-kisses-wink-wink-copy_resize.jpg" width="640" height="427" /> </a></p>
<p><b>And for the married/in a relationship people:</b></p>
<p>Seize the night, make it all about your partner, and make it personal – really personal.  Flowers and chocolate can be boring so try something new. Try having a “sexy date night.” If you both have wanted to try new things, Valentine’s Day is a great excuse to <b>step out of your comfort zone</b>. Some great examples include the <strong><a href="http://www.lifestyles.com/products/lifestyles%c2%ae-amuse%e2%84%a2-his-hers-pleasure-massagers/" target="_blank">His and Hers Pleasure Massagers</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.lifestyles.com/products/lifestyles%c2%ae-amuse%e2%84%a2-pleasure-touch-fingertip-massager/" target="_blank">Pleasure Touch Fingertip Massager</a></strong>.  These suggestions are a slightly less intimidating option for those who are new to the world of sexy toys.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Amuse-His_n_Hers.jpg" rel="lightbox" > <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-15043" alt="Amuse-His_n_Hers" src="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Amuse-His_n_Hers.jpg" width="640" height="1137" /> </a></p>
<p>And to ensure that the man lasts through this special night, there&#8217;s even a topical spray to help make intimate encounters last longer.  A great example is <strong><a href="http://www.promescent.com/promescent-standard-metered-dose-bottle" target="_blank">Promescent</a></strong>. Unlike other creams and sprays on the market, Promescent works below the surface, will not transfer to the woman, and allows men to last longer than they normally would – closing that arousal gap that many couples face, making this a win-win situation for all.</p>
<p>And ladies, bust out the deep red lipstick and push up bra ensemble and rock his world. Trust me. That’s all he really wants</p>

<p>Newsflash: Your girlfriend might not actually be from Venus after all. A new review of research published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology suggests that, sure, men and women are different—but not that different. Researchers analyzed 13 studies looking at 122 characteristics and 13,301 people and found that even though some research has shown—and stereotypes suggest—differences between the sexes (like female empathy or men’s superior math skills), the differences aren’t as distinct as many believe.</p>
<p>In fact, for many psychological traits—like the fear of success or how we choose our partners—men and women are pretty similar. So here are three common myths about your other half that you shouldn’t always believe. After the jump we bust the myth behind women!<span id="more-14985"></span></p>
<p>1. She Doesn’t Want Sex as Much as You Do<br />
OK, you might daydream about getting dirty almost twice as frequently: A 2011 study in the Journal of Sex Research found that men think about sex on average 19 times per day, compared to 10 times for women. But the truth is, every day she ages, her sex drive increases, according to a study in The Journal of Sexual Medicine. After studying the responses from 806 women over age 40, researchers found that the ladies were more satisfied with their sex lives, and almost 70 percent were reaching orgasm.</p>
<p>2. She’s Overly Emotional<br />
By nature, she can’t help being emotional. Her amygdala—the small brain region devoted to emotions—is way more efficient than yours. It produces richer, more intense emotional memories. But just because she’s crying and you’re not doesn’t mean you’re made of stone. Recent Wake Forest University research found that men become more stressed out and emotional with relationship issues, and experience more of a “boost” when the relationship’s going well than women do. Why? It could be that women are more likely to have a strong social support system than men, the researchers say. So when things head south—or are going well—men feel it more as the relationship is more likely to be their main source of intimacy.</p>
<p>3. She’s Obsessed with Shopping<br />
Perhaps. But you might be spending more: A poll of 2,000 people from the British firm Npower found that the average guy spends a little over $40 on impulse buys per week—while women spend just over $30. And new research from market research firm Mintel found that when it comes to grooming and beauty products, it’s not just your girlfriend who stocks up: Sixty percent of guys—versus 52 percent of women—like shopping online.</p>

<p>Yesterday I posted about <a title="Picking Up A Girl On A Plane" href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/?p=14459" target="_blank"><strong>picking up a girl on a plane</strong></a> and I got to thinking of what the next logical step would be and of course that would be renewing my membership in the internationally infamous mile high club!</p>
<p>I’m not sure quite where this fantasy came from but what I do know is that it’s now universal! Having sex in the sky has such a powerful attraction that we risk embarrassment, injury and a criminal record just so we can get our rocks off a mile high! It’s such an enduring fantasy that it even inspired a record chain, an airline and a global super brand; <em><strong>Virgin</strong></em>, one has to wonder how much Sir <em><strong>Richards Branson’s</strong></em> choice of business name was affected by the fact he lost his virginity on a plane?</p>
<p>It’s downright salacious, many of the <strong>Divas</strong> have gotten their ‘wings’ and we feel it’s about as fashionably naughty as it gets; but, get it wrong and you’re in a world of trouble! I would only advise joining the mile high club if you’re on the plane with your lover…propositioning a fellow passenger can obviously lead to some problems, propositioning the flight attendant will likely lead to some really serious problems! Not that some of us haven&#8217;t enjoyed that action on a flight or two.</p>
<p>Having said that, if there is someone who you feel is willing and they’re throwing some tasty looks your way then you may as well show them your cards if you feel it’s worth the risk! Joining the Mile High Club is a terribly dirty thing to do in the best of ways, but it’s SO easy to get it all wrong - to help you hit it off, we’re going to give you our top tips for joining, so you don’t need to worry about it not being a great experience and you won’t be coming off the plane wearing flexi-cuffs!</p>
<p>1. <strong>Best chance is on a night flight</strong> &#8211; so you’ll have plenty of time with the cabin lights dimmed and most of the passengers snoozing! Make sure you wear the right clothes for such a tryst, girls should be wearing a loose skirt or dress which can be hitched up, and guys should be wearing something with flies or preferably tracksuit bottoms which can easily be pulled clear.</p>
<p>2. <strong>Wait for the right moment</strong> – go when the toilets aren’t in high demand and go separately with an agreed knock to open the door! Wait for the stewardesses to go on one of their prowls through the cabin (ideally with a trolley) which should give you a few minuted with no staff around.</p>
<p>3. <strong>Get ‘prepared’</strong> before you go for the honeypot because there’s not much time for foreplay in a plane toilet. Ask the stewardess for a couple of blankets and, making sure your immediate neighbor is asleep (if you’re in a block of three) slip your hands beneath each others underwear while the blankets hide your playtime from prying eyes!</p>
<p>4. <strong>Choose your position with great care</strong>. The lavatories in a plane are pretty cramped things and they are certainly not designed for getting down and dirty, use one of the following positions to make sure neither of you get stuck or wrench a joint. First position is both standing up, ladies bend as much as the space allows and let your man take you from behind. Second position is with the lady sitting on the edge of the sink with her man standing between her thighs, but, boys remember those sinks get pretty nasty so be a gent and put down some paper towels. Third position is with the man sitting on the loo (lid closed please) and his lover can sit on top of him and grind her way to heaven!</p>
<p>5. Leave separately and make sure your hair isn’t all sex-ified and your clothes are back on properly!</p>
<p>6. Make it quick. Time is the one thing you really don&#8217;t have at this point. Anything more than 7 &#8211; 15 minutes and you&#8217;re sure to get caught. Though I will say if there is some question as to your activities, what has worked for me in the past is the ruse that one of you was sick but all is fine now</p>
<p>And remember…keep it simple and keep the noise down! Adventurous sex and planes DO NOT mix all to well and if you’re screaming and moaning with all the gusto of a porn scene you <strong>will</strong> be caught.<b><br />

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/gorgeous-69225.jpg" rel="lightbox" > <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13161" alt="gorgeous-69225" src="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/gorgeous-69225.jpg" width="620" height="388" /> </a></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve often fielded questions about the one thing that all men who are interested in bedding the hottest women out there have asked. Namely the question of &#8220;How Do I Pick Up Women?&#8221; I&#8217;ve answered many ways to do it, but the essentials &#8212; the Golden Rules of being a player, if you will &#8212; are about picking up and satisfying women. Usually referred to as The Player&#8217;s Code, these are the lessons and modes of conduct that give The Player an advantage over just some &#8220;guy looking to pick up,&#8221; which is most males.</p>
<p>You probably already do some of these things, but could use work on others. Most of these points will not be assimilated into your routine overnight; they require practice and dedication.</p>
<p>After all, while it might not be easy to become a true player, it&#8217;s certainly worth the effort &#8212; not to mention it&#8217;s a fun ride.</p>
<p>Today, we cover phase one of The Player&#8217;s activities: the art of the pickup.</p>
<h2><strong>the art of the pickup</strong></h2>
<h3><strong>1- Always be mentally ready to pick up</strong></h3>
<p>There are attractive women all around us &#8212; at the supermarket or waiting on you at a clothing store, in line at the bank, on the street&#8230; I actually get more than half of my pickups in such random places. While my conversion rate on these is slightly lower than with women I meet at bars or parties (they&#8217;re not expressly looking for it), unexpected locations have turned up some pretty good finds.</p>
<p>Remember: Women don&#8217;t expect to be hit on as they go about their daily lives, and, therefore, they are that much more flattered when it happens.</p>
<p>Most often, I&#8217;ll strike up a conversation while waiting in a store, based on what&#8217;s going on around us. You could comment on the wait (&#8220;I hope there&#8217;s a meal at the end of this line&#8221;), what she&#8217;s chosen to buy (&#8220;Huh, I looked at that but passed it up. Have I made a mistake?&#8221;), or anything, really. It could be on the street, too. The point is, you have a few moments to notice a hot woman, then look around, think of a clever line and deliver it in your most confident manner.</p>
<p>But approaching strangers is, in itself, a little nerve-wracking, let alone hot women. A good way to improve your skills is by starting casual small talk with random people &#8212; both men and women whom you&#8217;re not necessarily attracted to. Then you won&#8217;t feel the pressure of impressing them. If you&#8217;re already pretty comfortable chatting, then next time you see a woman you like on the street you can approach her without being nervous.</p>
<h3>2- Don&#8217;t use pickup lines</h3>
<p>Pickup lines smell bad and make women groan, not moan. Let the situation dictate your approach. To seem &#8212; and actually be &#8212; spontaneous, commenting on something she&#8217;s wearing or has been doing can work.</p>
<p>For example, &#8220;I was just noticing how well your shoes show off your calves, and although I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;re already aware of this, sometimes it&#8217;s nice to get outside confirmation.&#8221; If you choose to comment on something she&#8217;s been doing, make it positive, such as &#8220;You guys sure seem to be having a good time,&#8221; rather than, &#8220;I&#8217;ve noticed you&#8217;ve been twirling your ice with your swizzle stick for 15 minutes now.&#8221; No stalker talk.</p>
<p>Anticipate her possible reactions and how you will follow up to put your mind at ease. You will get much faster at this with practice. And have some open-ended (&#8220;how&#8221; and &#8220;why&#8221;) questions ready. Remember: Most people consider the best conversationalists the best listeners.</p>
<h3>3- Don&#8217;t fear rejection</h3>
<p>What do you have to lose by being turned down? A little pride, and after it happens a few times (because nobody bats 1,000), not even that. Suck it up. If you go into a pickup fearing rejection, that&#8217;s what you&#8217;ll project, and that&#8217;s what you&#8217;ll get. Be less attached to the result. Imagine that you&#8217;re just approaching this woman to have a conversation, not to bang her. If it goes further than conversation, consider it a bonus. A warm smile and a few quick jokes will show your best side, and warm her up to you that much quicker.</p>
<p>But remember: If a woman is considering you as a sexual partner &#8212; which is what you want &#8212; what you say is probably not as important as how you say it, including tone of voice and, of course, body language. Project confidence by looking into her eyes and standing or sitting upright, with your shoulders back rather than hunched. Don&#8217;t let your voice go up an octave, which is common to all people when they&#8217;re nervous. Make your gestures slow and deliberate, like James Bond, not fast and fidgety like Pee Wee Herman. Bear in mind that confidence deters rejection.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/blonde-beauty-217357.jpg" rel="lightbox" > <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13159" alt="blonde-beauty-217357" src="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/blonde-beauty-217357.jpg" width="620" height="388" /> </a></p>
<h3>4- Read her body language</h3>
<p>There are many different signs and subtleties depending on the situation. Just remember that, like you, if she fidgets or taps things, she&#8217;s nervous in an uncomfortable &#8212; i.e. potentially uninterested &#8212; way. If she licks her lips (consciously or not), runs her hands through or shakes out her hair, or, one of my favorites, plays with her earlobe, she&#8217;s sending you buying signals.</p>
<p>What about smiling? It&#8217;s good, right?</p>
<p>Well, only the right kind of smile. If she shows her teeth and laughs openly, you&#8217;re on the right track. If, on the other hand, she doesn&#8217;t show teeth, or she looks away when she smiles, she&#8217;s probably just being polite, possibly because you&#8217;re boring her.</p>
<h3>5- Give them the 15-minute test</h3>
<p>It may take you longer at first, but eventually you should be able to tell in about that time whether a woman is a) interested in you, and b) up for casual sex. Reading body language will help answer part a, and the degree of her buying signals plus other information you exchange will give you an answer to b.</p>
<p>You might think that you could be writing off potential babes by judging too quickly. But bear in mind that it takes a certain combination of factors &#8212; interest in you, right mind-set, no boyfriend (or no fidelity) &#8212; to find a woman to suit your needs. Once you start getting good at steering your struck-up conversations through these various topics without being too blunt, it should take about 15 minutes to get a good impression of your chances with the woman in front of you either now or on your next date.</p>
<p>But how, specifically, will you know? Only practice will tell.</p>
<h3>6- Know when to cut your losses</h3>
<p>She might not be looking for a quick fix, for example. This will be revealed in your 15-minute test. If a woman doesn&#8217;t pass that test, graciously bow out of the conversation and don&#8217;t feel bad about it. You also need to know how to identify which women to avoid.</p>
<p>Beyond that, attractive women are usually spoken for so don&#8217;t waste time: Establish whether or not a woman is single early on in your pickup. It doesn&#8217;t have to be awkward, but can instead be quite easily turned into a question about interests, e.g. &#8220;I really like to get away for weekends to (insert beautiful/romantic spot near you). Do you ever do that kind of thing?&#8221;</p>
<p>The goal here is that if she does have a boyfriend and doesn&#8217;t want to falsely lead you on, she will suggest the information that she has a boyfriend.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/gorgeous-woman-226321.jpg" rel="lightbox" > <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13162" alt="gorgeous-woman-226321" src="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/gorgeous-woman-226321.jpg" width="620" height="413" /> </a></p>
<h3>7- Use negative hits</h3>
<p>You might use a compliment in your initial contact, but that should be it for a while. After that, mix in a few negative hits, especially if she&#8217;s good-looking (which, if you&#8217;re hitting on her, she must be, right?), just to keep her honest and her ego in check.</p>
<p>For example, &#8220;I guess you&#8217;re trying to join the (insert celebrity name here) club when it comes to hairstyles. I&#8217;ve seen a lot of women with a similar style, but I must say it suits you a lot better than most.&#8221;</p>
<p>Note that a negative hit is not the same thing as an insult. It ends on a somewhat positive note, but lets her know you&#8217;re no pushover. After you&#8217;ve piqued her interest this way, you may permit yourself one showstopper compliment to let her know what you think. But if you start adoring her, she will feel she can take or leave you. Don&#8217;t over-compliment &#8212; it&#8217;ll kill your chances.</p>
<h3>8- Don&#8217;t lie</h3>
<p>Always be honest about your intentions, although not blunt. Use euphemisms; instead of coming out and saying, &#8220;I&#8217;m seeing other women at the same time as you.&#8221; Instead, put it this way: &#8220;I really like that you&#8217;re a fun person, because that&#8217;s what I need right now &#8212; somebody to just have a good, casual time with.&#8221;</p>
<p>You&#8217;ve been clear about your intentions, so she can&#8217;t feel misled. And if you say this fairly early on, you&#8217;ve taken control by setting the tone. After that, there&#8217;s no &#8220;talk&#8221; that needs to happen, unless things seem to be developing more amorously than planned.</p>
<h3>9- Get a good wingman</h3>
<p>Of course for the impromptu meetings on the street you probably won&#8217;t have a friend along, but neither will you need one. But a bar or party is different, because even though we all know what&#8217;s going on when a man approaches a random woman in a bar, maintaining the pretense of innocence is important. And showing up to a bar with friendslooks more innocent than cruising alone.</p>
<p>Your ideal wingman is funny and a good conversationalist to keep things going when there&#8217;s a lull, only he&#8217;s not more so than you &#8212; you don&#8217;t want him stealing your thunder. He also knows how to pick up, so he&#8217;ll know when you no longer need his help and can then fade into the background, or else pick up or entertain your prey&#8217;s friends.</p>
<p>Most importantly, a good wingman has your interests in mind, not his own. He might even throw a couple of easy negative hits your way, to show that you&#8217;re good-natured and can defend yourself.</p>
<h3>10- Always close the day</h3>
<p>You have several options here. If things are going well in a public setting and she doesn&#8217;t make a move to invite you somewhere (which she often will), you can suggest you move the party somewhere else in various manners, according to the signals she&#8217;s sending:</p>
<p>a) &#8220;Let&#8217;s get a drink somewhere, just the two of us,&#8221;<br />
b) &#8220;I&#8217;m thinking we could use a little more privacy,&#8221; or<br />
c) &#8220;What I want to do with you right now may be considered a criminal offense in public, so we&#8217;d better head elsewhere.&#8221;</p>
<p>But if things aren&#8217;t on that track, never leave without at least asking for her phone number or, less threatening, her e-mail address. People like e-mail because the communication isn&#8217;t a live performance, and they can more naturally play the whole &#8220;make him/her wait&#8221; game that&#8217;s so popular with phone tag.</p>
<p>But if you don&#8217;t end up with some way to at least contact her, all you&#8217;ve had is a nice conversation, and a player shouldn&#8217;t settle for that.</p>
<h3>11- Work on many leads simultaneously</h3>
<p>This is important for a number of reasons, the first being that it&#8217;s more fun, which is ultimately the point. But beyond that, you&#8217;ll learn faster, and may even be able to apply lessons you&#8217;ve learned with one woman you&#8217;re now up to date No. 4 with on a first or second date with another babe while it&#8217;s still fresh in your mind.</p>
<p>In the dating world, it&#8217;s all about the learning curve. Also, it&#8217;ll be much easier to take things casually with each woman if there are more than one. By working the quantity game, you&#8217;ll be much less affected if a lead doesn&#8217;t work out. This will add to your confidence, and if there&#8217;s one thing women are good at, it&#8217;s detecting confidence. If she feels you&#8217;re calm, cool and not after her like a dog in heat because you have other options, she&#8217;ll work that much harder to be No. 1 on your to-do list.</p>
<h3>12- Think of your strengths in the eyes of your prey</h3>
<p>Good, relatively superficial commonalities that will suit your purposes could have to do with music, food, film &#8212; anything that could provide themes for future dates. Plus, of course, there&#8217;s the mutual love of getting physical, the great incompatibility neutralizer.</p>
<p>In terms of differences, if, for example, you are after a woman younger than you and you&#8217;re worried it&#8217;s an issue, think about it from her angle &#8212; you&#8217;re an older, worldly and, therefore, confident man with the skill to pleasure her. If the fact is that you don&#8217;t know the latest Jay-Z  track, or that your hairline is doing a backward shuffle, just remember that  these things don&#8217;t necessarily matter as much to women, especially those interested in your other experiential qualities. Think that the glass is half full and you&#8217;ll project that positive attitude and have a better time.</p>

<p>With the <strong>new year</strong> approaching and <strong>Valentines</strong> day right around the corner we started wondering what causes someone to look across a room and see someone that they are completly drawn to and have that person be equally drawn to us. Is there anything scientific to explain this or is it the fault of the media telling us what is or is not attractive?</p>
<p>Well we wanted to find out and so we did, and hopefully you&#8217;ll find the information interesting if not helpful!<span id="more-12918"></span></p>
<p><a href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/f2a8ea6030ff5b91719ca603977d1b22.jpg" rel="lightbox" > <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-12921" alt="f2a8ea6030ff5b91719ca603977d1b22" src="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/f2a8ea6030ff5b91719ca603977d1b22.jpg" width="620" height="349" /> </a></p>
<h2>Sexy is All About Symmetry</h2>
<div>
<p>When we are born, our <strong>cells constantly divide</strong> to make up the person that we eventually become. If every cell division went completely unhinged without mutation, we would all be completely <strong>symmetrical beings</strong>. Most of us aren&#8217;t that lucky. Those with more body symmetry are viewed as more attractive because we internally see them as having a <strong>more pristine</strong> genetic makeup.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/hourglass-figure-1000x666.jpg" rel="lightbox" > <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-12926" alt="hourglass-figure-1000x666" src="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/hourglass-figure-1000x666.jpg" width="620" height="413" /> </a></p>
<h2>The Hourglass Figure</h2>
<div>
<p>When we see a stereotypically attractive woman, they always have an<strong> hourglass figure</strong>. However more than just an image, this actually has some scientific truth too. Studies show that women who fall into the <strong>waist to hip ratio of 0.67 to 1.18</strong> are viewed as more attractive because it is an internal <strong>sign of heath</strong>. Many in this ratio are <strong>less susceptible to diseases</strong> and are proven to have <strong>less difficulties having children</strong>!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/scar-hottness.jpg" rel="lightbox" > <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-12928" alt="scar-hottness" src="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/scar-hottness.jpg" width="620" height="430" /> </a></p>
<h2>Facial Scars</h2>
<div>
<p>One thing that most women find attractive in men however, are <strong>facial scars</strong>. If you&#8217;re in a short term relationship, a women is more likely to be drawn to this kind of anomaly simply because it is a <strong>visual signal of toughness</strong>. As long as it is in a spot where it looks like the injury was <strong>inflicted in anger,</strong> the right scar can show a woman that you are tough enough to stand up for them if they need it.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/bmi-diet.jpg" rel="lightbox" > <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-12920" alt="bmi-diet" src="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/bmi-diet.jpg" width="620" height="413" /> </a></p>
<h2>Keep an Eye on BMI</h2>
<div>
<p><strong>Body mass index</strong> is also another area that has had a lot of research. In general, this is a ratio more <strong>attractive to women</strong>, but surprisingly there are some really precise numbers to go with it. Studies show that women like a man with an <strong>ideal BMI of 20.85</strong>. This relatively average balance of fat and muscle shows that you are both healthy in general, and healthy enough to pass those genes on to kids. If you&#8217;re a man, that number is your golden ticket!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/gorgeous-fast-lane-magazine-blonde.jpg" rel="lightbox" > <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-12925" alt="gorgeous-fast-lane-magazine-blonde" src="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/gorgeous-fast-lane-magazine-blonde.jpg" width="620" height="516" /> </a></p>
<h2>Men and Blondes</h2>
<div>
<p>We&#8217;ve all heard the stereotype that <strong>men prefer blonde women</strong>, but believe it or not there is actually some scientific findings to explain why this is true. In general, this is supposedly because when women have blonde hair coupled with fair skin, we are internally more able to spot <strong>signs of physical defects</strong> such as Anemia and skin infections. Being blonde just gives men more of an opportunity to <strong>eliminate</strong> those evolutionary worries.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Girl-Blonde-Eyes-Eyelashes-1152x2048.jpg" rel="lightbox" > <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-12923" alt="Girl-Blonde-Eyes-Eyelashes-1152x2048" src="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Girl-Blonde-Eyes-Eyelashes-1152x2048.jpg" width="620" height="349" /> </a></p>
<h2>Facing the Truth</h2>
<div>
<p>The amount of estrogen women have in their body helps to make a woman&#8217;s face seem <strong>smaller, shorter</strong>, and even makes the eyes more prominent in ways that are more feminine and <strong>attractive to men</strong>. The same can also be said for the other gender as well as testosterone helps men have a <strong>prominent brow and jaw</strong>. The more of either of these chemicals you have, the more fertile you will be!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/goodsmell.jpg" rel="lightbox" > <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-12924" alt="goodsmell" src="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/goodsmell.jpg" width="620" height="349" /> </a></p>
<h2>The Smell of Genes</h2>
<div>
<p>Smell also has a great impact on these feelings too. For example, studies show that we tend to favor the smell of people whose <strong>genes are relatively similar</strong> to our own as opposed to exactly the same or totally opposite. That means from a smell basis we are inclined to favor on that slightly similar genetic scale. Studies even show that women can smell better to men at <strong>certain times of the month</strong> too! If they smell good, follow your senses!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Woman-magnifying-glass.jpg" rel="lightbox" > <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-12929" alt="Woman-magnifying-glass" src="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Woman-magnifying-glass.jpg" width="620" height="404" /> </a></p>
<h2>Visuals Can Trump Chemicals</h2>
<div>
<p>We&#8217;ve all heard about the power of these things called<strong> pheromones</strong> that somehow can engender genetic desire, but the truth is they are actually in reality <strong>no match for visual cues</strong>. Because these pheromones are actually leveled more towards our feet than to our nose, it&#8217;s <strong>extremely unlikely</strong> that one is going to pass into our senses from that one encounter at a night club. Pheromones do create a reaction, but the <strong>visuals are what matter most</strong>!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/black_couple.jpg" rel="lightbox" > <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-12919" alt="Portrait Of Young Couple Sitting In Park" src="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/black_couple.jpg" width="620" height="414" /> </a></p>
<h2>Loving Yourself</h2>
<div>
<p>This was touched upon before, however in general it is true that we favor people with genes who are <strong>somewhat similar</strong>to our own. Have you ever noticed how a lot of married couples tend to look sort of similar? A lot of this tends to do with the fact that these similar genes promote more <strong>compatible behavioral patterns</strong>. When you value the same kinds of things, you are more likely to beat the odds and stay together. This is all driven by similar genes!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/romantika-matematika.jpg" rel="lightbox" > <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-12927" alt="romantika-matematika" src="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/romantika-matematika.jpg" width="620" height="463" /> </a></p>
<h2>The Science of Falling in Love</h2>
<div>
<p>We&#8217;ve all fallen in love before, but what exactly does that mean in terms of science? According to studies, brain scans of people who have recently fallen in love indicate that there is simply <strong>more to it</strong> than sexual desire. In general, there is<strong>more activity in the love</strong> part of the brain (the same reserved for family and friends) when you have fallen. This means that falling in love is proven to be all about <strong>loving the complete person</strong> rather than just the body they are in.</p>

<p>Monday, November 19<sup>th</sup> (or Tuesday the 20<sup>th</sup> at the VERY latest) marks “Dump Day”: the last day before the holidays you have to break up with someone before you have to ride it out until after Valentine’s Day.</p>
<p>No one (unless you’re really heartless) wants to dump someone on Thanksgiving and ruin his/her family time. Giving someone the boot at Christmas is just downright evil, especially since they’ve likely already purchased a gift. After that, New Year’s and<span id="more-10264"></span> <strong>Valentine’s Day</strong> quickly approach and all bets are off.</p>
<p>So, if you’re in a rocky relationship and have been looking for a time to get out – now is that time! And should you find yourself single this “Dump Day” season (whether you’re on the giving or receiving end) – the best thing to do is get back out there.</p>
<p>Below are a few sexy suggestions from our good friends over at LifeStyles for those who may find themselves single again.</p>

<p><em>According to <strong>InterracialDating.com</strong>, 10 of the top 20 states in most demand for online interracial dating services are historically red states. This story was featured in the <strong><a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001tufiStej2DYvAyoawiF3vZMU66r70SGNN3QykCRfT7Bg4S9lN6wVwl3qI8StN9oYtx46D6nhATunEiYfqIlaqfoBX_LqGP9zS_Zyqpc9f99aAzAt929bd-fXsGYkHtD6WvtZWJfX-jSt61pfEP8HMO5ibsep7cvdmLI9MCUqkZO5S8J8JiKPxdwtmL94RYzQVKzHrXWbhzgRIQ6UOAl9CKk6fMjZHTaE" shape="rect" target="_blank">Huffington Post</a></strong>, and <strong><a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001tufiStej2DbQcDlpv3CYhO0-M-jxhiWqKseIFVOz8SB7KieOHJ-zW3Wz9WpBC1ooSlStlGFnFMSveBeqa8ZTqAhA19yMXcQLDtW32pR0SVK-_vEiwaxBOLvQJNXg5aFAb6pX1J8PUtyPdZNIM0iU8kcsnuZwhmOK0lkcOr-016SVMDg2fOF8ci_LlZFWfQUh9mn7fSBB6cODvOXDgXIposSH3zMM4N6NWQgAf29XMZo=" shape="rect" target="_blank">The Grio</a></strong> and received marked reader participation with lots of comments. </em></p>
<p>As per usual, the 2012 election heats up to a frenzy as the country is divided between red and blue states, conservative and liberal. But the personal may not always be the political, based on recent data released by <strong><a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001tufiStej2DaFxJCtLhXrzemIvNgaui2OLgGJg96UpUDPWQTNhCEc6x_Ye39sGpzVI_e7vQ9c_uY7H2hPgJwpYn3UQHZlTEVSCxHAgi6y9yf81r5MLbyhVi2ijLN8fQmK" shape="rect" target="_blank">InterracialDating.com</a></strong>, an online dating service<span id="more-9877"></span> that specializes in connecting people who choose &#8220;character above color.&#8221; It turns out that some of the reddest of red states have the highest number seeking interracial relationships. Ten out of the site&#8217;s top 20 states with the most populous members have historically voted Republican over the past five presidential elections.</p>
<p>States like <strong>Texas</strong>, <strong>Georgia</strong>, <strong>Tennessee</strong>, <strong>Alabama</strong>, <strong>South Carolina</strong>, <strong>Louisiana</strong> and <strong>Indiana</strong> historically vote Republican and tend to be socially conservative&#8211;not exactly fertile ground for people openly and un-apologetically stating their non-conformist dating preferences. Most of these states vehemently opposed interracial marriage during the riotous Civil Rights era, with Alabama, the last holdout, formally legalizing it as late as the year 2000. &#8220;The high interest in interracial dating might be a surprise because of a perceived disapproval of interracial relationships in the Deep South where racial tensions seem deeply ingrained in the psyche and culture of the people who live there,&#8221; says Christelyn D. Karazin, co-author of &#8220;<strong><a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001tufiStej2DaAjhz8lzHlyLM56lQmkdSqYL-6BDWDE5iMkMib6Xu9K8LLJTE-u89oInATXK-kgm7ITeVKU2yNW742DWWMKL6VDWY9XXyXCNvPiTHZu32yu9yx0MgnmnmVbnvCDFLDHFhlubk_thsRk9XRE3UfaP0eFZFAFKkV-SLI47PNnAgTgw==" shape="rect" target="_blank">Swirling: How to Date, Mate, and Relate, Mixing Race, Culture and Creed</a></strong>,&#8221; and publisher for the popular interracial dating blog, <a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001tufiStej2DYw0MN389pHgULaCxa639FDdctFZMo4LxyNukawyFicRhTBvkQixYFDKkQQ0EMXgubw3qu_AMj4F48rdzBJ4tk6eEhBYkc4JXPA6XWoFIJRPw==" shape="rect" target="_blank"><strong>Beyond Black &amp; White</strong>.</a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.fastlanemag.com/sex-red-states-top-list-for-online-daters-looking-for-interracial-love/www-interracialdating-com-top-20-states/" rel="attachment wp-att-9878" rel="lightbox" > <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-9878" title="WWW.INTERRACIALDATING.COM TOP 20 STATES" src="http://www.fastlanemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/LA91196-INFO.jpg" alt="" width="619" height="452" /> </a></p>
<p>Karazin recently appeared on CNN&#8217;s &#8220;HLN Weekend Express with Natasha Curry &#8221; discussing historically &#8220;swirl-friendly&#8221; areas most accepting of interracial couples. Predictably, these places were along typically liberal coastal cities like Los Angeles, New York, and Seattle with pockets of swirl-friendly places in the Midwest and the western portion of Texas.</p>
<p>So are people in red states too socially conservative to widely accept interracial relationships?</p>
<p>Laura Noble , 46, a black woman who lives in Virginia (Number 8 on the list) says, &#8220;As a black conservative, I posit that the media has a vested interest in portraying all conservatives as racists and all liberals as open-minded when in my experience, that is not the truth. I think that many conservatives are stereo-typically misrepresented in their interest of other races, and their geographic location may be more racially homogeneous, therefore if they want to date outside their race, they need to do it online.&#8221;</p>
<p>This new data may indicate that there&#8217;s a higher interest in interracial dating in red states than is perceived on the surface because of it&#8217;s anonymity and ubiquitousness. &#8221;The demand is there because it might be harder for people to gauge who might be open to dating interracially,&#8221; says Rob Thompson , founder of <strong>InterracialDating.com</strong>. &#8220;Online dating gives people the ability to seek out like-minded people more easily than it would be face to face.&#8221;</p>
<p>Shaun Brown , 26, of Richmond, Virginia, plans to vote for Mitt Romney on November 6. He&#8217;s white, his girlfriend is black. Brown thinks that the legacy of slavery, fear and mistrust keeps people in Southern (and historically red) states from openly expressing their interest in interracial dating. &#8220;The media narrative for the past 40-50 years is that all conservatives care about themselves and their white friends and don&#8217;t like black people. We&#8217;re drilled from grade school and beyond that as a white person, your people oppressed black people. It makes you a bit reluctant to approach a woman for fear that you might be rejected. With online dating, you don&#8217;t have that fear or anxiety of wondering if you ask a girl out on a date she would say, &#8216;Oh no I could never date you because you&#8217;re white.&#8221;</p>
