    The video, which was posted earlier this year was an experiment to see what self-identifying straight guys felt when they touched another man’s penis. One of the guys even went as far as to say it was a “beautiful experience”. Another, whose identity remained secret, said that it “didn’t turn him on”, but “didn’t turn him off either”.

  • 7 ways you can be a totally crap boyfriend

    7 ways you can be a totally crap boyfriend

    After a bad breakup, having to start over and put myself on the market again after 6 years, I seem to have grown up a little when it comes to guys. Over the last few months, I’ve met my fair share of new men. Some have been good, some downright awful and some complete assholes.

    Luckily for me, one guy, in particular, taught me everything there is to know about how to become a player. So I have come up with this short, fail proof guide for anyone who would just like to become an asshole in general or would like to play these ‘players’ at their own game. If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em!

    1. Use social media to your full advantage.

    Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Grindr. This will give you access to hundreds of guys without the bother of actually having to meet any in real life. Poke them, tweet them do what you have to do to grab their attention!

    2. Pick your first victim.

    Preferably one who doesn’t seem in the least bit interested in you! This will give you a real sense of achievement when you play them. Send them a message, be friendly and ask probing questions to gain information that you can then use against them at a later stage. Chat away, build rapport and pretend to be friends. Withhold information about yourself or even makeup lies.

    3. Swap phone numbers.

    Inundate them with texts, compliments and calls every day.

    4. It’s now time to try and get your victim to fall hook, line and sinker.

    Use buzz words such as hot, handsome, puppies, love, marriage, babies, forever and phrases such as ‘we just click,’ ‘I’ve liked you from day one,’ ‘settle down,’ and so forth. Suggest you are both looking for the same thing and are a match made in heaven. Manipulate them into thinking they must have been wrong about you initially.

    5. If you have completed steps 1 – 4 correctly, this step should be easy and work a treat.

    Suggest a date, somewhere original say like the zoo, dinner, a movie or maybe even a picnic in the park!

    6. It is now time to meet your victim, do whatever is necessary to lure them into the bedroom.

    Have sh*t sex, my suggestion would be to let them make you cum and then give them half a hand job, yes half don’t finish. This part is crucial. Don’t pay any attention to pleasing them. Who cares if they get off? Just make sure you do!

    7. Proceed to ignore your victim.

    At this point, you should already be at stage 3 with a new victim or if you are feeling super confident you could even try it with their best friend. You’re a player now kid!

    And there it is ladies and gentleman! How to become a top class tool in 7 easy steps. Follow this guide meticulously and you are well on your way. You can even use it to play someone who wasn’t interested in you in the first place! Clever eh? Word of warning, though, karma is a bitch!

    This is a skill that we need to learn. Clearly.

    This happy chappie manages to take off all his clothes in a record-breaking 3.52 seconds. Yes under 4 seconds. We’ve been trying it in the office and well, now we’re a messy tangle of shoe laces and bobble hats (management have refused to turn on the heating – it’s like a bleeding scene from Muppet’s Christmas Carol here).

    Look at him go.

     

  • Want people to think you’re successful here’s 15 signs you need to show off

    Want people to think you’re successful here’s 15 signs you need to show off

    If you’re looking to get some approving looks from your peers then you’ll be wanting to make sure you’re making the right signs… The 15 signs of success in Britain have been revealed.

    Although wealth is often regarded as the sign you have made it, seven in 10 UK adults reckon being content is the true benchmark of success.

    Less than a fifth of respondents said being a millionaire shows you are doing well, while over a quarter said being charitable is a true indicator of prosperity.

    Commissioned by accounting firm Mazars, the research of 2,000 UK adults also found just three in 10 Brits have some kind of plan in place to actually achieve success.

    Ian Pickford, partner in Mazars’ private client team said,

    “Our research shows that people define success in lots of different ways.

    “Having enough money is important but it’s really interesting to see ‘being a millionaire’ and other materialistic definitions of success are way down the list.”

    Treating people fairly, acting ethically and feeling fulfilled in life feature in the top 15 indicators of success – along with being financially secure and being debt free.

    Having a personalised number plate, a gym instructor and eating in top restaurants are among the signs you’ve made it.

    While having a happy marriage, being able to retire early and owning your house outright also indicate success.

    Over a quarter of men are optimistic they will achieve success in life – compared to one in 10 women.

    Half of those aged 18 to 24 years old are confident they will achieve what they consider success to be.

    And of those polled, almost a quarter of over 55s said they had already achieved success.

    Although as little as three in 10 Brits have a plan of how to be successful, half of 18-24-year-olds have mapped out how they will achieve their goals.

    In comparison, just a fifth of those aged 55 or over have a plan in place to reach their life targets.

    On average, people think they will retire at 62, although women think they will be working until they reach 63 years of age – and men think they’ll be able to stop working at 61.

    Respondents aged 25 to 34 reckon they would retire the earliest – 60 years old – while those aged 18 to 25 and those aged 35 to 44 think they’ll retire at 64.

    Only one in 10 people have used a financial professional to help them plan for a successful retirement – although four in 10 said it was something they would consider.

    Ian continues,

    “The results suggest people have a good idea of what they consider success to be, or not be, but most of us have little or no idea how we will get what we really want out of life.

    “Only three in 10 people in the UK say they have a plan in place. This means millions are in danger of not achieving their life goals and being unhappy or unfulfilled because of their failure to plan.

    “Failing to plan is planning to fail. Research shows the simple act of formulating a life or financial plan and writing it down makes it much more likely to happen.”

    BRITS’ TOP FIFTEEN SIGNS OF SUCCESS:

    1. Being happy
    2. Being healthy
    3. Being financially secure
    4. Being debt free
    5. Achieving your career aspirations
    6. Feeling fulfilled in life
    7. Being able to retire early
    8. Owning your house outright
    9. Having a balanced work/family life
    10. Having a happy marriage
    11. Treating people fairly and with respect
    12. Having polite, well-behaved children you are proud of
    13. Acting ethically in your day to day life
    14. Being charitable
    15. Feeling respected by your peers

  • There are now 48 organisations that have full access to your ENTIRE online browsing history

    It almost passed without notice, but the Investigatory Powers Bill, also known as the Snooper’s charter, was passed by the House Of Lords last week and now 48 organisations will have access to your entire browsing history, even if you’ve deleted it.

    © belchonock Depositphotos
    • 48 Departments will be able to view your entire internet history if the bill passes Royal Assent to become law.

    • Deleting your history doesn’t mean your history has been deleted.

    • Internet providers (ISP) have to keep your records for one year.

    A staggering 48 Governmental departments will now have access to your online browsing data according to a list published by a blogger who wanted to know who exactly would have access to our Internet history.

    Thanks to blogger Chris Yui we are able to bring you a list of 48 departments that will be able to snoop on your every online move now that the Investigatory Powers Bill, AKA the Snooper’s Charter has passed through the House Of Lords. The bill has been described as “the most extreme surveillance law in our history”, according to advocacy group, Don’t Spy On Us.

    Snoopers will be able to see your entire history regardless of whether you’ve cleared your internet history or not as ISP will now legally have to keep records for one year and will have to hand over those records regardless of permission granted.

    The charter has been criticised by technology companies, academics and civil liberties groups, however, the Government has said that it believes the charter is necessary to combat terrorism and organised crime.

    The Governmental departments that will have access are set on in Schedule 4 of the act and include GCHQ, the Metropolitan police force and even the tax man.

    Worryingly departments which seem to have no connection to terror detection such as the Food Standards Agency and the Department of Health will have unfettered access according to Mr Yui’s list.

    • Metropolitan police force
    • City of London police force
    • Police forces maintained under section 2 of the Police Act 1996
    • Police Service of Scotland
    • Police Service of Northern Ireland
    • British Transport Police
    • Ministry of Defence Police
    • Royal Navy Police
    • Royal Military Police
    • Royal Air Force Police
    • Security Service
    • Secret Intelligence Service
    • GCHQ
    • Ministry of Defence
    • Department of Health
    • Home Office
    • Ministry of Justice
    • National Crime Agency
    • HM Revenue & Customs
    • Department for Transport
    • Department for Work and Pensions
    • NHS trusts and foundation trusts in England that provide ambulance services
    • Common Services Agency for the Scottish Health Service
    • Competition and Markets Authority
    • Criminal Cases Review Commission
    • Department for Communities in Northern Ireland
    • Department for the Economy in Northern Ireland
    • Department of Justice in Northern Ireland
    • Financial Conduct Authority
    • Fire and rescue authorities under the Fire and Rescue Services Act 2004
    • Food Standards Agency
    • Food Standards Scotland
    • Gambling Commission
    • Gangmasters and Labour Abuse Authority
    • Health and Safety Executive
    • Independent Police Complaints Commissioner
    • Information Commissioner

    • Police Investigations and Review Commissioner
    • Scottish Ambulance Service Board
    • Scottish Criminal Cases Review Commission
    • Serious Fraud Office
    • Welsh Ambulance Services National Health Service Trust

    Mr Yiu noted at the end of his list,

    “I always wondered what it would feel like to be suffocated by the sort of state intrusion that citizens are subjected to in places like China, Russia and Iran. I guess we’re all about to find out.”

    In July Lord Paddick gave a stark warning that the bill could have dire consequences for the LGBT community. He said,

    “Homophobia has been encountered in the police service, as has unauthorised disclosure of confidential information. ‘If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear’ is not the same as ‘If you have done nothing wrong, you have nothing to worry about.

    “Even if the police were to be trusted completely, massive pools — oceans — of data in the custody of private companies such as TalkTalk, one of the internet service providers that will be asked to store such data, would be sitting ducks for hackers, criminals, blackmailers and hostile foreign powers.

    Can’t get a date? 50 biggest turn offs revealed

    Are you finding it hard to get a date? Perhaps it’s time to invest in some soap and a new deodorant.

    Talking about ex-partners, being rude to waiting staff and having dirty fingernails are among the biggest turn-offs on a first date, a study has revealed.

    Wearing ‘bad shoes’ and talking about yourself in the third person also appeared in the top 50 lists of no-nos.

    The poll of 2,000 single people by e-cigarette pioneers blu revealed bad body odour as the top turn-off.

    Almost three-quarters of adults said it would be their main reason to avoid a follow-up date.

    Second place went to bad tempers, followed by lying, acting selfishly and having bad breath.

    The study also found that people would prefer to date someone who vaped, over one who smoked.

    Some people – clearly still haunted by their experiences – logged very specific complaints, including one encounter in which a man went on at great length about his hobby of collecting PARROT shaped ornaments.

    Fifty-three per cent said they form an opinion on someone in 15 minutes or less, and over half would ditch someone who seemed otherwise perfect but had one glaring flaw.

    The poll also showed wholesome traits were still valued as the most important qualities in a date, favouring a sense of humour and good hygiene over wealth and fashion sense, with non-smoking also a key consideration in a partner.

    Jon Solimando, Brand Director at blu, said,

    “Between the multitude of online apps, not to mention traditional ways like meeting in a bar or club, Brits now have more options than ever before to help them line up a first date.

    “As an alternative to ‘turning off’ potential dates through smoking, as this research has shown, adult smokers can now get six weeks’ worth of blu products for less than the price of a pack of cigarettes upon signing up at love.blu.com.”

    The study was carried out as part of blu’s new ‘Six Weeks to Fall in Love’ offer.

    THE TOP 50 TURN-OFFS
    1.Body odour
    2.Bad temper
    3.Lying

  • 50 of the biggest one-hit-wonders…ever

    50 of the biggest one-hit-wonders…ever

    Eighties pop smashes “Video Killed the Radio Star” by The Buggles and The Weather Girls’ “It’s Raining Men” have been voted the nation’s favourite one-hit wonders.

    The two tunes tied for the top spot, beating Norman Greenbaum’s “Spirit in the Sky” and “I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles)” by The Proclaimers.

    Bruce Woolley, who co-wrote “Video Killed the Radio Star” with fellow music producer Trevor Horn, said,

    “It was a one-hit wonder but it has had a wonderful life and I’m very proud of it.

    “It only took a few hours to write but we worked on the recording for months and I think it’s stood the test of time.

    “My kids were slightly embarrassed by it when they were younger, but it paid for their education!”

    Lou Bega’s “Mambo No.5” came fifth, ahead of Sinead O’Connor’s 1990 smash “Nothing Compares 2U”, Vanilla Ice’s “Ice Ice Baby”, “Don’t Leave me This Way” by Thelma Houston, “Cotton Eye Joe” by Rednex and “Macarena” by Los del Rio.

    Kevin Smith, a spokesman for online market researchers OnePoll, which conducted the poll of 2,000 music fans, said: “It’s interesting to see that the most popular one-hit wonders were originally released before the 21st Century.

    “In fact, the highest ranking post-Millennium track was released in the year 2000 and landed at number 12 in the poll.

    “It might be that musicians have learned the trick behind their biggest hits and know how to keep their momentum up.

    “But whatever the reasoning behind the results of the top 50 list, we can see that all of them are unforgettable tracks”.

    The Top 50 featured several well-known party tracks such as “Saturday Night” by Whigfield and “The Ketchup Song” by Las Ketchup.

    “Achy Breaky Heart” by Billy Ray Cyrus in 1992 reached the 17th spot in the rankings while Billy Paul’s “Me and Mrs Jones” reached 19.

    And many will remember the ear-worm by Witch Doctor, “Ooh Ee Ooh Ah Aah Ting Tang Walla Walla Bing Bang” from 1998.

    The 90s claimed the most one-hit wonders, followed by the seventies, which included one-off hits like “Kung Fu Fighting” by Carl Douglas and “Seasons in the Sun” by Terry Jacks.

    One track which may surprise many as a one-hit wonder was “MMMBop” by Hanson which placed at number 30.

    And “Barbados” by Typically Tropical which later was rewritten to be about Ibiza and sang by the Vengaboys in the nineties reached 44.

    “Video Killed the Radio Star” writer Bruce Woolley, 62, who has also penned hit songs for dozens of other artists including ‘Slave to the Rhythm’ for Grace Jones, added, “The song’s been covered by hundreds of artists, used in video games, TV ads and has appeared in several Hollywood movies.”

  • 10 things you need to stay clear of to make your climax taste better

    10 things you need to stay clear of to make your climax taste better

    Have you been noticing your partner’s face turning a deep shade of green after you’ve deposited your spooge in his mouth?

    ten things to have amazing tasting cum

    If you’re getting a yucky response to your jerk sauce then maybe it’s time to take a look at what you’re ingesting – as some of what you’re eating can affect the taste of your cum.

    So here’s the 10 things you need to stay clear of.

     

    1) Dairy

    Dairy is bad for the taste of sperm

    Too many dairy products can make your love milk taste salty, so is best to keep consumption of cheese and milk to a minimum.

    2) Being dehydrated

    did more water to have better tasting cum

    Drinking more water helps wash out pollutants from your body. Most of your climax is actually water, so making sure you’re well-hydrated means that you could have more volume which will dilute the natural taste of your load.

    3) Asparagus

    stay clear of Asparagus for tastier cum

    It makes your pee smell and your man mayo taste awful. So if you’re out on a hot date make sure you stay away from the grilled asparagus.

    4) Coffee

    coffee makes cum taste bad

    It’s a good job to cut down on all pollutants including caffeine. Too much coffee could actually change the taste of your baby batter and make it much more bitter. It’s best to limit your coffee intake to around 4 cups a day.

    5) Meat

    meat can make cum taste bad

    Red meats have to go, I’m sorry, but if you want to keep your boy smiling, then it’s out with meats, like beef, lamb and pork. Swap with good quality, high protein cuts of chicken and turkey.

    6) Onions

    onions and garlic can make sperm taste terrible

    Your two little love-juice making chums do not like onions. Neither do they like garlic because of their high sulphur content! It all makes for a nasty tasting load.

    7) No chlorophyll in your diet

    chlorophyll

    High chlorophyll is good for tasty cupid’s toothpaste. You can find chlorophyll in parsley, wheatgrass, and celery. Go for it chow down on those sticks of celery.

    8) Alcohol

    can alcohol make your cum taste bad

    Alcohol is known to make your jizz taste bitter, it can also play havoc with your sexual performance so keep yourself in tip top shape and cut back on the lagers.

    9) Ciggies

    smoking affects the taste of sperm

    If you’ve ever blown a guy who smokes you’ll know that his man muck is pretty rank.

    10) Want super tasting cum?

    what fruit makes cum taste good

    The following foods are super good for tastier sperm: Pineapples, papayas, cranberries, melons, mangos, apples, grapes and lemons are all good choices. Fruits that are high in natural sugars help offset the bitter taste of your man chowder.

    OPINION | 10 things gay guys should stop doing

    From a young age we are conditioned on what is right and wrong, but how does that work for the modern day gay man? With many embracing their sexuality in many different ways it is important to remember that we still represent the LGBT community and there are many things we shouldn’t be doing:

    1. Calm down dear, it’s only a commercial

    I remember being on a night out where the music was good. It was nearing the end of the night and Aqua’s “Barbie Girl” began to play. I was standing harmlessly next a gentleman in his late forties who began screaming like a twelve-year-old girl. There’s no need for dramatics, and no need to scream.

    2. You are not a Barbie girl living in a Barbie world

    I have strong judgement towards those who wear bad makeup. I understand it is a personal choice and it isn’t a problem if you do, but keep it clean and under control. You shouldn’t have foundation on your chest or neck as it does rub on your clothes when you’re dancing around and it is noticeable.

    3. The bigger they are, the harder they fall

    I am not a size queen, but it does annoy me that in modern society everybody is more interested in what is in your pants than in your heart. I remember having a conversation over text with a baker. After asking for a picture of his cake he thought I was dyslexic and had spelt cock wrong.

    4. Lesbihonest

    Lesbians don’t bite. What do you think they are hiding down there? A gnome? They have as much right to celebrate sexuality as anyone else. My friend recently dated another girl whose arms were so big she could pick me up like Patrick Swayze in Dirty Dancing – amazing.

    5. You can’t pull off plastic

    I don’t and never have understood the cliques of the gay world. Can’t we all just bake a cake filled with rainbows and smiles and everyone would eat and be happy? This isn’t Mean Girls and you are not Regina George.

    6. Blow kisses, not boys

    If you make out you’re a slut by kissing various guys throughout the night and bragging about it, it only makes it okay for other guys to call you a slut. Keep it classy and no one will judge.

    7. Snap Happy

    If you want to act like you’re in an episode of Will and Grace, be my guest. Just please don’t think it is okay to snap your fingers at others in rest rooms or smoking areas with a catchphrase such as ‘Hey girlfriend’.

    8. Darling, you cannot act straight

    How many profiles have you seen with ‘straight acting’ on them. Firstly, if you are using a dating application/website aimed at homosexual men and women then you are in the wrong place. Are you looking for someone to pretend to be straight for you?

    9. If you want money, date Scrooge McDuck

    A lot of people seem to be obsessed with money. Personally, I have never found money attractive and couldn’t imagine sleeping on a bed of thin paper notes. It doesn’t matter what your annual income is or what label clothes you wear. It is all about the personality.

    10. Finally, just be you

    I think along the lines of trying to fit in with a stereotypical gay world we forget who we are. For years we have been fighting for gay rights, and for people to celebrate their sexuality. Don’t let that put you down, stand up.

  • ADVICE | How to wax your bum

    If you’re tired of a hairy crack and you’re looking to do a bit of waxing then listen up as we’ve got some tips for you!

    Last week we gave you tips on how to wax your sack and this week it’s all about the crack. If you want a smooth bum then here are some tips to help you get the most out of your waxing experience.

    We asked waxing expert, Fardad Moayeri, the CEO of Parissa, for some top tips on waxing your bum and back in the comfort of your own home.

    To do these areas Fardad suggests using leg-body wax strips, you can get these from Amazon

    GET A PARTNER TO HELP

    Best thing to do is to work with a partner on the back and crack as they can be difficult areas to access. If you can’t work with a partner, then your mirror will have to be your best friend.

    BACK TO THE MIRROR

    Stand with your back facing the mirror and turn your head to determine where you need hair removal.

    DIRECTION OF HAIR

    Check out the direction of hair growth…then start applying the wax strips in the direction of hair growth and zip-off in the opposite direction.

    KEEP IT TIGHT

    Since you’ll want to keep your skin as tight as possible, you can try either sitting backwards on a chair and arching your back…or just arch your back when you’re standing.

    THREE THINGS TO REMEMBER

    1) The key point that makes all the difference: press-on strips IN DIRECTION of hair growth. Zip-off in the OPPOSITE direction of hair growth.
    2) The quicker the strip is removed the better the results.
    3) If you’ve got long hairs…trim them to about 0.5cm.

    We recommend Parissa’s wax strips, which you can buy from Amazon.
