The Pill: Soon To Be Sold In Stores Like Condoms
The surprise announcement from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists could help bolster efforts by public health officials to make the pill more widely available. Proponents of making the pill available over the counter argue that oral contraceptives are some of the safest and most effective drugs on the market but political pressures make accessing them far too difficult. For example, most doctors prescribe the pill for one year and require women to receive a full pelvic exam before renewing that prescription. Add in the fact that insurance companies often only dole out pills one month at a time. It's easy to see the savings associated by putting the pill on the shelves.
Doing away with institutional inefficiencies is one motivator behind the announcement. Another is the fact that half the nation’s pregnancies each year are unintended, causing significant strain on the public health system.
“It’s unfortunate that in this country where we have all these contraceptive methods available, unintended pregnancy is still a major public health problem,” Dr. Kavita Nanda, a scientist with the North Carolina nonprofit FHI 360, stated.
In order for such a reality to exist, a company would first have to be granted permission by the government. Then there is the issue of cost. Obamacare requires FDA-approved contraceptives to be available without co-pays for women enrolled in most employer-provided workplace insurance plans. If the pill were sold without a prescription, it wouldn’t be covered under that provision. ACOG addressed this issue, noting that on average, uninsured women pay $16 per month’s supply.
Making the pill available over the counter and without a prescription may be just the answer to the endless litigation by religious extremists to the contraception mandate.
Sounds like a plan. A Plan better than 'Plan B'..

Disney Princesses Re-Done by the Best..
Harrods Department Store is the mother-effing man. The windows at their legendary Knightsbridge store are amazing. Beyond amazing, they have taken their Disney princesses and glammed them to the point of no return.
They composed an elite team of 10 womens wear designers, including Versace, Roberto Cavalli, Valentino, Oscar de la Renta and - Elie Saab, to re-create the iconic Disney Princess dresses.
The results are, of course, magical, with Saab's Aurora (Sleeping Beauty), Marchesa's Ariel (The Little Mermaid) , Versace's Cinderella and de la Renta's Snow White.
I love the art of reinvention..

Urinals Shaped Like Womens' Mouths?
Yuckums.
I can only wonder what she was thinking.
Carry on..
10 Oct 2012
The Ananas Bar and Brasserie, a stylish French restaurant in the Rocks district, said the urinals were "a commonly used European design piece from female Dutch artist Meike van Schijnde" but would be removed.
A spokesman said the two urinals – shaped as bright red, wide-open womens' lips – were supposed to be “playful”.
"We sincerely apologize if they have caused offense,” she said. “They are being removed today.”
The urinals – described by feminist critics as offensive and misogynist – comes amid an ongoing debate in Canberra over sexism in Australian politics.
An Australian feminist publisher and commentator, Anne Summers, said the toilets were “asking men to put their d---- in these mouths as urinals”.
"Misogyny is very widespread, and this is just an example of misogyny," she said. "The concept is pretty challenging and confronting.”
Another prominent Australian feminist, Meredith Burgmann, likened the urinals to "schoolboy grubbiness" and noted they were not surprising given the recent "outpouring of misogynist incidents".
The design of the toilets received notice after the Sydney Morning Herald restaurant critic, Terry Durack, described them in the introduction of his review of the three-week-old restaurant. “Can we talk about the urinals first, and get that out of the way, please?" he began. "Weirdly, they come as no real surprise here at Ananas, merely adding to the extraordinary collision of statements and intent... What a flirtatious show-pony of a restaurant this is, hell-bent on making an instant impression.”
As for the food, he said: “There's a lack of spontaneity in the cooking that diminishes its ability to be delicious.”
In 2006, four urinals shaped like women's lips designed by another artist, Rudolf Scheffel, were removed from public toilets in Vienna after protests from women's groups. They were later sold on eBay.

A Hard to Get Man? Doesn't EXIST..
When a woman plays hard to get with a man, it's because she likes him. Like the proverbial 'dropping of the hanky', she gives him an opportunity to show he's interested by allowing him to pursue her (i.e., no rejection). How long and how sweetly he chases her, can demonstrate just how deep his interest lies. Plus, men like the hunt so why not?
HOWEVER,
When a MAN plays hard to get,
IT MEANS HE ISN'T AVAILABLE.
Whether he's in a relationship, or just doesn't like you enough, if a man wants to get with you, HE WILL. PERIOD. No waiting, no debating,
Just dating.
Then MATING :-)
And if he isn't trying to have sex with you, especially after a while, BE OUT. That's a reg flag right there. And don't fall for that "he's waiting because he respects me" gibberish. This ain't "Happy Days." A man can still respect you after sex, and if he's a man of any type of value or worth, sex will only make him want you more, not less. Don't make any excuses for why he isn't pursuing you. If his penis isn't chasing you, how could you think his heart is? If it's for a date or simply doing the do..
There's no such thing as a 'hard to get' man. If he is not giving you the same energy you're giving him, MOVE ON.
And if the guy's not interested in dating you, who cares? He's probably some closeted weirdo, secretly taking pictures of his ass when he's lonely..
And you don't want to date THAT now do you??
Didn't think so. Keep it moving ladies.. :-) Love you!

The Amazing Nipple Bra!!!
Sorry to all the steel-pantied feminists out there, but I would rock THEE HELL out of this bra.
I do not find it degrading, demoralizing or sexist. On the contrary, I think it's super sexy, and more than that, it's a bit empowering. Any
woman wearing this bra is sure to command attention. This look demonstrates that she is fearless, confident, not afraid to be noticed and daring.
This is certainly not a garment for the meek.

A woman should also be prepared for the negative attention that comes with wearing a bra like this. Anytime a woman enters 'risque' territory (especially with her attire) she should expect a visit from the HateCrew. Everyone from envious woman to wolf-eyed men, it could get ugly in the wrong setting. This is not the brassiere to wear to the office by any means. Weekends, parties, etc., are fine. Wearing this to work? Not unless you want to be sexually harrassed.
I digress.
What makes this bra so wonderful is its natural look. It's perfect. It gives the "bra-less" look while giving breasts a lift. Brilliant! It's hard to find a bra that gives good support but can still let your nipples show without it being an obvious under-wire.

Nipple Bra, where have you been all my life?
I myself don't need the fake nips. Mine poke, stare and may even growl at you depending on how cold it is. They stand out all the time as a colleague once noticed and proceeded to tell me, "I smuggle raisins into work."
A friend used band-aids over her nipples to minimize the "headlight" effect.
Kudos to the makers of this bra. Sexy, practical, natural and fun.

Finally Frida!
60 years after her death, Frida Kahlo finally made the cover of Vogue..
The amazing Mexican artist Frida Kahlo may have passed away 60 years ago but at long last, she is featured on the cover of Vogue Mexico magazine. This new cover was inspired by a fake mock-up cover where someone put Kahlo on the cover of French Vogue magazine. Someone at Mexican Vogue thought it was a good idea, they got the rights to use a photo of Frida Kahlo taken by Nickolas Murray back in 1939 and voila — Coverphoto.

Shocked by The Shocker..
I've always hated 'The Shocker.'
'The Shocker' for those who don't know, is putting two fingers in a woman's vagina whilst inserting one finger in her anus.
"Two in the Pink, One in the Stink," as they say.
What a vile way to describe a sexual act, no? When I saw this pic (of someone's tattoo) I laughed and felt immediately satisfied. It would serve a man right if this was his fate from trying to do a "Shocker" on a woman.
Surprise indeed asshole. Now go wash your hands..
