Brit Girls Prefer Average Boys
British women looking for love fancy 'Mr Average' men in middle-ranking
jobs more than high fliers, according to a new study of female students
in Lancashire. Northern England.
Lead researcher Simon Chu said women suspect 'too good to be true' high
status men are more likely to stray, with teachers and travel agents
offering more reliable prospects.
"High socio-economic status in males can be subtly counter-productive
in terms of attractiveness as a long-term partner," he told the BBC.
"We suggest that females see physically attractive, high status males
as being more likely to pursue a mating strategy rather than a parenting
strategy."
The study results were published as acclaimed US rave historian Barbara
Ehrenreich published an angry feature on the pressures afflicting
middle management under America's increasingly compulsory 'be positive'
culture, which also provided clues as to why women might shun bosses.
"Smiles, at least in human society, are gestures of submission, and
routinely demanded of women as a token of subordinate status. The happy
slave smiles; the well-trained 'lady' smiles," she wrote.
"Now even the male white collar striver has to keep his lips pulled
back in an expression of eager compliance. Only the top guys get to snarl
and snap their way through the day," she added. (Alternet.net).
In more relationship news, UK psychotherapist Brett Kahr unveiled the
results of his study of 19,000 Brits' secret sexual fantasies (the
British Sexual Fantasy Research Project) and said almost everybody regularly
visualizes secret sex fantasies, almost always involving lovers other
than their partners.
"Many fantasies contain strong imagery of sadism, masochism and other
forms of harm," Dr Kahr added, "If any of us could manage to put many of
our more aggressive fantasies into practice, we would end up in
prison."

egomania is its ability to take over the mind and soul of its victims, so

'So What?' Drugs 'Part of Growing Up'
Conservative leader David Cameron brushed off claims that he'd been
punished for smoking cannabis while at Eton this week, insisting childhood
indiscretions for politicians should be disregarded.
"Like many people I did things when I was young that I should not have
done, and that I regret,' he told reporters, "But I do believe
politicians are entitled to a past that is private."
Surprisingly, Labour Home Secretary John Reid defended his rival when
appearing on a BBC TV show, scoffing "I think it was Andy Warhol who
said most statements could be answered with the question 'so what?' I
think this is one of those 'so-what' moments."
Mr Cameron's refusal to come clean contrasted markedly with the stance
taken by hotly tipped US presidential contender Barack Obama, who first
discussed his teenage drug use in his 1995 autobiography 'Dreams From
My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance'.
"Pot had helped, and booze; maybe a little blow (cocaine) when you
could afford it. Not smack (heroin), though," he confessed when recalling
his High School years.
"Junkie. Pothead. That's where I'd been headed: the final, fatal role
of the young would-be black man . . . I got high 'to" push questions of
who I was out of my mind." (Washington Post)
Mr Obama's frank admissions were recycled by most of America's
mainstream media in the last year as his meteoric rise up the US political
hierarchy continued, though he remains supremely confident telling a group
of prominent editors last month '"When I was a kid, I inhaled." (New
York Times).
His preferences for pot and coke also match the present tastes of
numerous serving London police officers, the Telegraph reported this week,
following the inadvertent publication of an internal police report on
corruption.
The Met police's Strategic Intelligence Assessment briefly appeared on
the Metropolitan Police Authority's website and said 'a growing number
of officers and staff are taking drugs off duty.'
"Drug and alcohol abuse by Met employees remains a significant threat
to public confidence," the report revealed, "Intelligence shows misuse
of controlled substances by staff has risen slightly, with cocaine and
cannabis the drugs of choice."

What's the Best Way to Make a Prayer Work?
"Prayer is something that happens spontaneously of
itself when you're either meditative or freaked out enough - when you're
freaked out, you pray for salvation and deliverance, one way or another
- and generally your prayers are answered, as your continued presence
here proves.
If you're in a meditative state, whether you're sitting still, or are
on a dance floor or anywhere else for that matter - the prayerful state
might descend on you of itself and you start to hear the voice of the
presence you'd normally pray to, talking softly to you.
Men's BodyShavers Add An Extra Inch
Giant electronic conglomerate Philips Norelco have launched a new body
shaver product for men which promises to add 'an extra optical inch'
for men who use it for shaving their crotch.
Philips suggest 'women prefer a well groomed man' on the Bodygroom's
website ShaveEverywhere.com and predict women will be so impressed with
'a new you in the bedroom' that they'll 'eat yoghurt off your ***".
"Let me tell you, this whole issue used to make me quite
uncomfortable," an actor on the site admits, "But now, with a hair-free back,
well-groomed shoulders and an extra optical inch on my c -- , let's just say
life has gotten pretty darn cozy," he adds.
The product received enthusiastic backing from San Francisco Chronicle
writer Mark Morford who suggested it's already huge commercial success
means American men are accepting that 'the general trimming of body
hair isn't just for transvestites and gay porn stars and metrosexual
writers anymore.'
"In other words, caring about this sort of thing doesn't make you gay,
or stupid, or emasculated. It just makes you hot," he added, "And
besides, who wouldn't want the pleasure of an extra optical inch?"
In more underwear news, Newsweek reported that sales of men's knickers
climbed 14 percent to $3.6 billion last year, as more and more men buy
designer pants such as C-in2's package enhancing wonderbra style briefs
the Sling.
"We have a customer from Wall Street that swears by our thong because
he doesn't want a visible panty line," C-In-2 chief Jason Zambuto told
Newsweek.
At such times, when you can hear the voice talking, be silent and
listen - when it's said what it has to say, you can then ask it to heal
someone or help someone else, and even ask for something you want to occur
in your own life - as long as it's something for the highest good and
by the free will of everyone involved. If it is, you can pretty much be
sure it will happen, as will the positive healing effects of your
prayers for others' wellbeing.
As for formalising your prayers into any particular shape, style or
order, that's entirely up to you to make up as you go along. The words are
merely envelopes for the sentiments - as long as your heart's true
prayer is being conveyed, however clumsily, it will reach its source."

"Many female celebs turned themselves into simulations of female porn
actresses some time ago - and have become less and less simulated. What
is interesting about sporno is that men who are considered to be 'Alpha
males' because they are sports stars are going down the same
prostituting route." (Haaretz, Israel)Sporno/ metrosexual inventor Mark Simpson continues to develop his new theory about male sports stars increasingly emulating gay porn models.
