Men @ MindSay 
The study analyzed 41,500 people, both men and women, between the ages of 29 and 69. Participants were followed for ten years and were asked to keep documentation about their drinking habits. What researchers found was that men who consumed alcohol daily reduced their risk of developing heart disease by 35 percent. Women did not experience the same results.
More extreme levels of alcohol consumption among men, between three and eleven (or more) shots of hard liquor a day, suggested a 50 percent decrease in heart disease. It is believed that women do not experience the same effects from alcohol as men do because of differences in female hormonal activity and the methods by which females process alcohol.
While partially unclear as to how it works logistically, scientists understand that consumption of alcohol tends to raise high-density lipoproteins, also known as "good" cholesterol, which prevents bad cholesterol from accumulating in the arteries.
Intake of alcohol is linked to the development of another type of heart disease called cardiomyopathy, which is a weakening of the heart's ability to adequately function. Such a condition can result in death if not dealt with properly.
Experts reiterated the fact that while alcohol consumption may reduce one type of heart disease, it can cause many other problems including liver, brain, and pancreatic illnesses. The Stroke Association noted that high alcohol consumption increases one's risk of having a stroke by 300 percent.
While adding to existing literature on the subject of the alleged benefits of alcohol, experts from across the board warned people not to take the study as a license to binge drink. The risks far outweigh the benefits and, unless a person is very careful in monitoring his or her intake, he or she may easily go over what is considered moderate alcohol limits.
Better ways to prevent heart disease include limiting intake of unhealthy fats and excess processed foods. Some nutrient-dense foods that are known to assist in maintaining healthy cholesterol levels include blueberries, grass-fed meats, wild salmon, garlic, avocados, coconut oil, dark green vegetables, apples and raw almonds.

Researchers from the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden, and Harvard University used the Swedish Cancer Register to identify 168,584 men 30 years old or older who were diagnosed with prostate cancer between 1961 and 2004. The research team then turned to Sweden's Causes of Death Register and Inpatient Register to compile information on how many of these men suffered from subsequent fatal or non-fatal cardiovascular events and suicides.
The results showed that prior to 1987, men were approximately 11 times more likely to have a fatal cardiovascular event during the first week after they were told they had prostate cancer than men without the disease. Throughout the first year after their diagnosis, men with prostate cancer were about twice as likely to have a heart attack as men without prostate cancer. After 1987, men diagnosed with prostate cancer were about three times as likely to have a cardiovascular event during the first week as undiagnosed men, and they had a persistent, slightly raised risk in the first year.
Although not many men in the study killed themselves (136 in all), the researchers did find a significant increase in suicides associated with a prostate cancer diagnosis, too. The relative risk of suicide throughout the study period was 8.4 during the first week and 2.6 during the first year after diagnosis.
What's particularly tragic about men literally dying from the consequences of stress after being told they have prostate cancer is that many of them actually should have little to fear -- they just haven't been told the true facts about their disease. Although about one in six men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during his lifetime, only one in 35 will actually die from prostate cancer.
What's more, many men who have been told they have prostate cancer probably had unnecessary screening for the disease in the first place (http://www.naturalnews.com/026787_c...). A study in the September 28, 2009, issue of the Archives of Internal Medicine concluded there's no convincing scientific evidence that screening prevents deaths from prostate cancer. In fact, when men are found to have early-stage cancers, they are often told treatment is necessary when no treatment may be needed at all. Their cancers may never be life threatening but aggressively treating their disease may lead to a host of health problems and even life threatening complications.
To their credit, the authors of the new study mentioned these issues. "Treatments for prostate cancer (for example, surgical removal of the prostate) may be more effective if they are started early but they can cause impotence and urinary incontinence, so should men be treated whose cancer might otherwise never affect their health?" they wrote. "In addition, receiving a diagnosis of prostate cancer is stressful and there is growing evidence that stressful life events can increase an individual's risk of becoming ill or dying from a heart attack, stroke, or other cardiovascular events and of becoming mentally ill."

Guyism.com a men-oriented website is promoting a poll among its users to try to find the most sexy women born in the last 30 years. It's a very poorly organized poll if you ask me, since it seems that there is no real selection criteria for the included women.
I took the time to put together a comparison of the Top 3 and Bottom 3 of three different competitions. You'll notice a red bar near each photo, that's the comparative amount of votes - higher means more votes. The purpose is to try to find any real patterns in the choices of the males when it comes to sexiness.
Born in 1987
From left to right:
1 - Ashley Greene (American actress)
2 - Maria Sharapova (Russian tennis player)
3 - Brooklyn Decker (American model)
10 - Jessica Stroup (American actress)
11 - AnnaLynne McCord (American actress)
12 - Kristin Cavallari (American actress)
Born in 1988
From left to right:
1 - Julianne Hough (American dancer, singer)
2 - Ria Antoniou (Greek model)
3 - Rihanna (Barbadian singer)
10 - Lacey Schwimmer (American dancer)
11 - Jessica Lowndes (Canadian actress)
12 - Chelsea Staub (American actress, singer)
Born from 1989 to 1991
From left to right:

3 - Emma Watson (British actress)
10 - Pixie Lott (British singer, actress )
11 - Ashley Benson (American actress, model)
12 - AJ Michalka (American actress, singer)
My conclusions:
for most men, sexy is related in various amounts and combinations to:
- skanky outfits or none at all
- big breasts
- some cuteness
for most men, not sexy means:
- complicated clothes
- non-erotic rebel looks
- too much cuteness
If you want a more serious comparison of women, try AskMen.com's Top 99 Women. What is it that you see in Megan Fox anyway?!
To finish, I'd like to post another before and after picture. I think she's Despina Vandi, 40 y. o. Greek singer. Supposedly, at your left is the original photo, and at the right is the magazine cover after some serious photoshop.. I tried to confirm this, but to no avail. At close inspection, I believe that's the truth.
Lately, for what ever cosmic reason, several of those dear to me have been wrestling with this age old issue. Love is never subjective and rarely cut and dried. It is instead purely concerned with our pleasure sensors, that part of us which dares to dream and to try, that deep seated need to be part of a vague completeness, that we ourselves, are not enough in our totality.
The following scenarios are taken from recent communications. (I’ve altered certain things and omitted others. Some may or may not recognize pieces of themselves in which case I apologize in advance, I mean no disrespect.) I felt rather compelled for some odd reason to make some what I am afraid will be ramblings on the subject.
Scenario One
He’s honest and loyal, treats you like a queen and has the means to do it. He is rather set in his ways, a child of the forests and seasons, but you think that if you could polish this rough diamond up just a bit he’d be just perfect. He has been starving for love for a very long time and for a short while he allows you your ‘improvements’. Soon it wears thin, he is after all a MAN, and men secure in their ways often do not do changes well. It goes against their grain so to speak, and there is the ultimate rebellion, rejection and retreat to lick their wounds.
The truly sad part is that most women of today when faced with a man (or woman) steeped in the ways of nature, go about killing the wildness, the very thing which attracted them first about this person. They do this with the best of intentions, mistakenly believing that their actions arise out of love.
Once you are set in your ways, it is very difficult to adapt yourself to another person. Love has nothing to do with it; sheer co-existence can be a challenge. Had they accepted the person for who and what they truly are, they would find much of what they are looking for.
Scenario Two
A young woman of my acquaintance is married with 3 young children whom she adores. Her spouse is in the military and was deployed overseas. Prior to his leaving, they discussed divorce and not for the first time. While he was gone she fell in love with someone else. The spouse came home unexpectedly to find another man in his house, bed and with his wife and children.
Needless to say he did not take it well. He is now back overseas, and the young woman and her lover are dealing with the aftermath. They truly care for each other; the marriage is over in her view. The lover just wants the best for her and the kids. The husband says that no one is going to take his wife without a fight. He’s using the threat of taking the kids away forever with no visitation rights as a weapon to ensure her compliance. All three are flirting with disaster, all in the name of love. My primary concern is the children and yet my heart aches for them, and that includes the husband who hasn’t a clue why the woman he loves has done a 1-80 on him.
Scenario Three
Someone says that you are the only one they will ever love, they alternate between threats that if they can’t have you no one will, to threatening suicide if you don’t return their affections. You are convinced that they are more than half serious in these comments and take steps. You may begin to carry a weapon, change your name, phone number and move, change jobs, and avoid places that he knows you like. He finds you, hires people to help him do so, documents your every move. Any new endeavor or friend is a threat and therefore must be eliminated or otherwise neutralized. You become more paranoid, your ‘spider senses’ tingle and you dread the moment that the other shoe will drop. You know that it will, just not when.
This is not love. This is obsession and fixation and a dangerous one at that. RUN - do not walk where someone can assist you. If no one will listen or believe you, continue to document on your own, keep records, seek professional assistance, be it police, support groups, whatever.
Scenario Four
You’ve been with him for some time now. Most nights he falls asleep in front of the TV with a beer. You clean up; put the kids if there are any, to bed. He doesn’t offer to help and expects to be waited on, to have his dinner delivered. He doesn’t ask about your day but often tells you about what a crappy one he has had. You’re tired, he’s sat on his ass, lord king and mayor of his domain. You are the chief cook, bottle washer, maid, nanny, chauffer, nurse, and accountant. You go to bed, seeking that most divine of all elusive things…sleep. You wonder where the romantic man you married who used to help you, who used to kiss you and hold your hand went. The insensitive man in the other room bears little or no resemblance to the man you remember and who captured your heart.
Later he may come to bed. He may or may not wake you up to fuck, you can’t call it lovemaking. He rolls off you grunting and starts snoring. This too is not love. This is the day to day existence which sucks dry the very well-spring which feeds love. Love needs to be worked at; it doesn’t just grow by itself. Does he love her? He may or he may not, and often doesn’t even have a clue why she has her ‘moods’. Does she love him? As he becomes more and more insensitive a thousand little ‘wrongs and slights’ begin to chip away at any feelings for him she has left.
Scenario Five
They are the other half of your soul, true soul mates. You both know it. It’s never been like this before, tho the two of you have never met. You’ve exchanged countless emails, and telephone calls. Perhaps even sent photos or shared web-cams. Their voice makes you melt. Every waking moment you day dream of them and the wonderful life the two of you will share. You are ready to give up anything just to be with them.
This first flush, is this love? Are there indeed soul mates? Is that what love truly is - the compulsion to find that individual who completes you somehow? Put to the test of time, will this last? When you meet will each of you past the test and end up where joint hopes and dreams have led you both?
And should it for some reason not end up on the path you had hoped and dreamed for. In disappointment do you cut all ties because it didn’t measure up to your expectations? Will you miss out on the friendship, the sharing of your lives because they weren’t ‘the one’ after all? What a waste.
Someone once told me a story about man's preocupation with that emotion. The Gods, afraid that man would one day be greater than the Gods themselves, voted that humanity be exterminated. The Goddess of Love who was herself in love with a mortal man, threw down her mirror and when it shattered decreed that each man and each woman would have their souls split into as many pieces as her mirror. That each soul would be too busy searching for the other pieces of itself that humanity wouldn’t have time to challenge the power of the Gods.
Thus each of us search our whole lives looking for that special someone, the other half of our souls, and this is the search for love. Perhaps this explains why some people love many, we find bits and pieces in several different individuals. Regardless, true love remains the greatest of our emotions, from which spring self-sacrifice, loyalty, dedication, passion.
Perhaps it is, who knows?

Hi everybody,
This is something that I did awhile back. I just ran across it while I was cleaning out my desk, and thought that someone out there might like to read it. So here it is Boo.
Damn you horny little stud you! Oh, hell yes that's a heck of a lot better. Damn baby your pretty fucking good at this shit. I really liked the part where you man handled me, turned me around and ass fucked me!
You must have known that I really do love taking a big fat long hard cock up deep into my ass hole. That, and deep throat are my two most favorite things to have done to me.
I was standing in front of you naked. You were kissing my titties, holding them in your hands, squeezing them ever so softly as you nibbled on my nipples.
You slid your hands down my sides to my hips, then back around me and grabbed my ass checks and pulled me in tight against your naked body as you gently sucked a tiny hickey on my tit.
As you brought your hands back to my hips you gave them an easy downward push. I knew that this was my signal to drop to my knees in front of you because you were ready for me to service your stiffening manhood.
I kissed your neck and dragged my tongue down across your chest, stopping for a moment to lick and suck your stiffening nipples.
I reached down between your legs with both hands and found your cock. My eyes grew wide in amazement at how large it had grown and how hard it had become.
My thumbs are across the top if your dick and my fingers are circling downward capturing your nuts and fondling them as I go. I lick and kiss my way down your hard belly as I slowly sink to my knees.
I am kneeling before you in a very submissive dick sucking posture. I hold your nuts in my hands, squeezing then softly as I bring them to my lips. I stare lovingly up at you as my mouth opens and my hott wet tongue darts out and licks your sack.
You flinch and give your groan of approval "Gaaaa,Bitch", I hear you saying "Your fucking good".
Now that I know I am pleasing you I suck one of your testicles gently into my mouth as you raise your body up onto your tiptoes to give me better access to your sack. "Suck those fucking nuts bitch" is what you tell me to do and I comply with your demand.
I have slurped and slobbered on your cods for several minutes when you put your hand under my chin and nudge my face slightly up. As I stare up into your eyes you take your other hand and offering me your swollen rod say "Be a good fucking slut Wendy", and "Suck on this for me".
I lick my way from your sack to the base of your rod and slowly lick and slobber all along the entire length of your shaft. I stare into your eyes the entire time looking for signs of your approval.
You say "Mmmmm, good fucking girl Wendy" And I smile at you as my tongue licks the tip of your rock hard cock. I circle the head several times, you moan,"Gaaaaa,daam,Bitch your fucking mouths hott".
I move my lips slowly onto the head of your cock as I stare into your eyes. You reach out and take my face in your hands, your thumbs are on my cheeks and your finger tips are at the back of my jaw bone.
You are slowly coaxing my face up and onto your throbbing dick as you grin down at me telling me "You like that big dick don't you Wendy?"
I try to answer but as I start to open my mouth you forced the head completely into my mouth "Blurph! Glumbfph! Splurbph!" is all that I have a chance to say as you quickly fill my young mouth with your manhood.
I can feel that you are really starting to enjoy this blow job as you keep putting pressure on the back of my jaw bone and coaxing my face forward. I start to take control of your cock as I push your hands away and start to swallow even more of your hard meat.
You have started to fuck into my hott wet mouth as I slobber all over your dick and balls. Now you are holding me by the back of my head and really starting to drive that cock deeper into my face.
Oh god I fucking love it as you become frantic and face fuck the dog shit out of my mouth, driving all of that massive meat deep into my face and all the way down into my throat.
Your banging my face relentlessly, jamming all of that long hard cock into my mouth, when in a fucking mind blowing frenzy you completely bury my face in your crouch, gaging me with your dick and holding my head so tightly to you that I thought It would pop as you let out a loud cry "Cuuuuummmmiinng,Gaaaa".
I could feel the savage muscular contractions as they ripped through your body as you're cock begain to unload, gushing out one huge gooey wad of steaming hott cum after another as your fucking nuts pumped out all of your hott salty giz deep down into my throat as I began gasping, gagging, and fucking sputtering,"splurph,mlumph,blubb,gluub", and almost fucking barfed trying to swallow it all down without loosing a drop.
I had counted fifteen of those contractions as your balls pumped themselves dry, squirting blast after hott juicy blast of your thick gooey giz into my horny cum hungry mouth as you kept filling it with your delishous hott sperm.
But I took it all in and I didn't loose a single fucking of your tasty hott cum as I swallowed all of your hott gooey fucking cookies down.
Your load is now spent and you try to withdraw, but I hold you're prick buried firmly in my throat untill all of your spasume have compleately subsided.
You twitch and jerk and slam my face full into your crotch as I keep your dick in my mouth, milking it down with my fingers as I slurp, and suck hard to get to that very last drop of your precious love juice.
"Whew" I don't do a lot of these cyber blow jobs because it takes so long. But you had given me a fairly decent ass fucking earlier so I wanted to repay the favor.
♥ Wendy
