Relationship Protocol: What Articles of Clothing Are Off-Limits?
I'm pretty comfortable with nudity, including getting dressed and undressed in front of a significant other. But as we all know, there are some articles of clothing, especially undergarments, that don't highlight your features in the best light. For example, tights are one thing that I would avoid putting on in front of my special someone at all costs!

Scarlett Johansson joined musical collaborator Pete Yorn for a photo shoot in November's Glamour, which hits newsstands on October 6. You guys are loving the music they've created, but Scarlett opened up about more than their songs — she also discussed her one year of marriage with Ryan Reynolds and addressed a recent body image controversy. Here's more:
- On body image: "There was this rumor mill cranking out stories that I had lost 14 pounds — I could never lose 14 pounds.

Unintentionally Funny: Ask Men Decodes Feminism
Ask Men recently called in a woman to answer the pressing question: what feminist demands do women want men to ignore?
The list the "relationship correspondent" came up with is awesomely and unintentionally funny, as is the accompanying article. Of course, the writer points out that she's not talking about "the stereotypical, garden-variety, hairy-armpit feminist."
Slow Sex Movement Guru: What Do Men Want?
"The men who come to OneTaste are men who are so sick of having to pretend like they know what they’re doing."
This is the third in a four-part series of interviews I had with Nicole Daedone, who is emerging as the leader of the slow-sex movement and who founded the OneTaste urban retreat center in San Francisco. OneTaste invites men and women to learn about mindful sexuality by participating in workshops, yoga, and (for residents only) controversial "OMing" sessions in which men stroke women to orgasm during daily morning sessions.

Jessica Simpson is on the cover of September's Glamour, and inside the magazine she opens up all about her past loves and her optimism for the future. The interview was conducted before her split from Tony, but Jess addresses the fact their relationship might not make it to the print date. While she's promoting her lingerie line again, she also discussed her new show The Price of Beauty.
Study Reveals That Men Who Tidy Make the Ladies Happy
In another case of researching the obvious, an Oxford University study shows that women are more attracted to men if they believe they will help out with household chores and contribute equally with childcare. As a lucky woman whose husband does half the housework (and as a woman who has been in the opposite situation with boyfriends and housemates in the past), all I can say is: duh!
The study, which was reported in the Telegraph, examined heterosexual relationships in 13 countries, questioning 13,500 men and women between the ages of 20 and 45 from each country about gender, housework, and childcare responsibilities.
Some Contemplate Mr. Right Now
Is it better to live with a less-than-perfect match than to be single? The question is often answered with a guttural and emphatic no in public, but privately, it's probably wrestled with more often than you'd think by those who have contemplated forever.
In an article in the Daily Mail, 38-year-old British writer Lucy Taylor said that she is close to settling for Mr. Not Quite Right But Will Do Because My Time Is Running Out.
