Back and Neck Hair Getting to You?

It’s summer time, and you know what that means. It’s the time of year when you shed a lot of clothes, and expose a lot of those “overgrown” areas of your body that look like you’re a caveman who has just woken up from a long winter’s nap.  Guys are notoriously hairy on their necks (the back of their necks) and their entire back.

Not only that, we often have a lot of unwanted body hair on the front of our body as well – our chests, and even too much on our upper arms. Not only is this unsightly and not very appealing to a lot of women who like a smoother look or at least like to look at just a little bit of hair, which makes you a man, but it can be uncomfortable.

It can rub on your clothes, make them stick to you in a funny way, and just generally suck.  Thankfully we have access to some of the best male body hair removal products that don’t require expensive electrolysis or the laborious and often painful act of plucking, tweezing or waxing.

Have you ever seen the movie 40 Year Old Virgin?  The one where Steve Carrell gets his body waxed and ends up crying for his mommy because it hurts so bad?  Well, that’s pretty much what it feels like, I can tell you from personal experience.

Not only does waxing in heavily haired areas of the body like the back and the neck hurt, but it also sometimes makes you bleed because the hair root is ripped out so quickly. Some men even break out in rash-like bumps for days afterwards because the pores are so traumatized and tend to swell up into bumps.

The best male body hair removal creams avoid this painful and annoying side effect because they get down deeper to the root and don’t require the traumatizing ripping out of the hair by the root. You can end up with a smoother, finer hair for weeks at a time, which is much better than shaving!

What’s Up with Hollywood Men Lately?

Hello everyone, Jill here, for my random commentary on a common theme that seems to be increasingly publicized for men in the public eye – aka men either in the business of Hollywood show biz, or linked to it in some fashion. I’ve gotta say, the world of “Hollyweird” really has me thankful that I don’t live there and never had any desire to be involved in show business in any way, shape or form.

Honestly,  it’s all just too phony and high pressure for me, and there are few stars that can resist it’s temptations and multiple missteps of going down the wrong path. Too many spiral down into a path of self involved, dangerous behavior that has no regard for others. In short, Hollywood is the home to a lot of narcissism and shallow behavior in my opinion.

There have been far too many stories in the media lately about Hollywood men and women breaking up their relationships by engaging in selfish behavior, acting out in general against women (thanks Mel Gibson for messing up your image, I always thought you seemed like a nice guy), and engaging in sexual harrassment (the star that is accused of this shall remain unnamed, but it’s a shock, even though most of us know nothing of his persona since he’s not Hollywood “A” list).

I mean really, also there’s all these sports stars who are getting busted for offensive sexual behavior, hurting their families (sadly, many of them have families to hurt).  Let me just name a few of those sports star scandals and I’m sure you can put a name to them. One younger football star has been accused multiple times of rape, but that’s since been hushed up although I’m not sure why.

Another was accused of soliciting a very young prostitute (he’s married). Another sports star was accused of rape and since acquitted.  I mean, where is this all going to end?  It seems like the increasingly “me” attitude has really taken it’s toll on not only the values of a world past, but especially in the world of the over priveleged and overpaid worlds of professional sports and entertainment.

AIDS Prevention Gel

Apparently there is a new sexual gel that has proven to be an effective deterrent against the AIDS virus.  It is a gel that is put in a woman’s vagina as protection against getting HIV from an infected sexual partner, and thus far has had very nice results. It supposedly cuts the risk of actually contracting the HIV virus which causes AIDS by about 50% than without any gel at all.  That’s pretty impressive!

The study was done in South Africa. Africa, as you know, has really struggled with the AIDS epidemic now for years, and they are struggling every day to find new ways to prevent the disease and educate their citizens on how to protect themselves. One challenge is women who’s partners refuse to wear condoms. Of course, as you know, condoms provide the best known sexual protection against AIDS other than abstenance, which unfortunately just isn’t very practical in today’s world.

The gel is made with a microbicide in it, which means that it has the ability to kill viruses.  It actually was found to be effective at killing the AIDS virus when it came into contact, hence it’s protective nature when it is used in the vagina.

The gel, which also has an anti AIDS drug in it, also protects against the human papilloma virus, which is the precursor to genital warts and also thought to be the precursor to cervical cancer and abnormal cell growth (precancerous cells) on the cervical wall.

This could really be a great thing for the African nations, which have struggled to get the AIDS epidemic under control as it could give women the option to protect themselves against getting AIDS.

Symptoms of Low Testosterone Levels in Men

Testosterone is the male key reproductive hormone. Not just reproductive but also the one responsible for muscular size, hair and bone mass. Putting it simple, it is the hormone that makes the male’s Men.

A good amount of testosterone in male body gives the men capability to perform great in physical activities. Power comes form these hormones and fuels the strength of muscles and bones. The most important characteristic for these hormones is their capability to endow the male with sexual drive. Increase of testosterone level means increase sexual pleasure.

Unfortunately there is a downside to this too, a situation of low testosterone level caused as years go by or caused during puberty development.  Low testosterone levels give the symptoms of low libido or sexual drive; erectile dysfunction (ED); increased irritability or depression; fatigue; reduced muscle mass and strength; inability to concentrate; osteoporosis or decreased of bone density; Increased risk of cardiovascular disease; and fat accumulation and weight gain.

Side effects of low testosterone level are small amount of facial hair; slower body development like muscle mass and genitals; male’s voice not changing after puberty.
But not all situations are permanent. Men with high testosterone levels have the condition of low testosterone level from time to time. This is due to the fact that they spend them during sports activities or mostly during intercourse.

Many athletes avoid sexual activity before a big match as not to affect their energy and physical performance. This myth is not always correct as some people are not affected by low testosterone levels after having sex. In fact quite the contrary appears; their testosterone level increases significantly after having sex. Some athletes prefer having sexual activity before a big match in order to get the boost for best physical performance.

Improving the testosterone levels, normally, come in to types, natural and artificial. The natural way to improve testosterone levels is to consume healthy food full of vitamins and minerals. The fruit that is a great source of testosterone is the banana. One banana has the ability to supply enough testosterone for the entire day. Another type of fruit, or more like types of fruit, is shelled dry fruit – walnuts, peanuts and etc.

The artificial way is consuming prescription drugs. Many people are misled that multivitamins can do the trick, but they don’t. There are certain types of medication that provide the necessary daily dosage of testosterone and need to be handled with care.

Coffee May Not Be Bad for Prostate Health After All

I love my coffee. I must admit, waking up in the morning to the smell of good, ground up (we love grinding our own coffee in the morning, so much better tasting and fresher) coffee is really one of the greatest things about waking up.  I savor those first few sips of java with the creamer and sugar and stevia in it as much as I savor my small dessert at night. It’s almost like a guilty pleasure for me, because I know that coffee isn’t really great for you.

It might be in it’s pure form, but the way I like it all sweetened and loaded with powdered creamer which has transfats and sugar probably isn’t the best combination. Sure, it may have some antioxidants, but I think that I pretty much make up for that in adding crap to it that it doesn’t need and that certainly doesn’t add to it’s nutritional value.

There has also been some speculation that coffee drinking men may be putting the health of their prostates at risk.  Especially the heavier coffee drinkers. So, a study was done, as studies usually are when there is a beloved traditional food’s reputation on the line for potentially stealing health from you!

The studies showed that there was no statistically significant link between prostate cancer or prostate health and drinking coffee. They did not see any link between coffee consumption and lower prostate risk either. So coffee, at least according to this one study ( we all know that some other study will come out and conflict with this one, that just seems to be how things go), really is not a common denominator one way or another when it comes to men and getting prostate cancer.

I certainly am glad, because some mornings when I don’t have a cup of joe, I can definitely tell i have caffeine withdrawal. I get headaches and really cranky. But if I can dry out for a week or two, the headaches go away. Ahh, coffee, why do you have to taste so good, especially on cold winter mornings?

New Female Aphrodisiac Discussion

Hey guys, Jill here to talk to you about something very serious and close to my own personal heart – of course!

We have a new page dedicated to the often-elusive female libido and orgasm potential.  Women notoriously have a hard time getting in the mood, especially when they’ve been in a relationship for a while and may have kids, chores and work to think about on top of pleasing their partner.

It’s not easy job for the ladies, but there are natural supplements made with herbs and other natural female libido enhancers the help “prime the pump” so to speak and address the physiological side of the female libido and orgasming.

Lack of sexual desire if a big complaint in a lot of marriages, and it’s important to ensure that the female libido remains where it should be – at levels it was at when the hormones were raging when she first met her partner and sexual desire came much easier without all the pressures of daily life eeking in and wrecking havoc on one’s sex life.

So without further ado, go to our new female aphrodisiacs and libido enhancers page and see what you can be doing for yourself if you’re a woman, or for your lady love if you’re the lady’s lover man.

Most Women Find Orgasms Evasive

Hey guys, Jill here.  As a woman, I can tell you, most women, like me, find it harder to orgasm than men do. We have to focus on having one most of the time, unless we are hyper sexualized and can feel things a lot more at that all too important pleasure dome, the clitoris.

Would it surprise you, whether you are a man or a woman reading this right now, that about 2 in three women consistently do not orgasm when they have sex? This is compared to a much smaller portion of the male population.  Guys have it pretty good when it comes to sexual pleasure and libido while the female libido is a bit more elusive and tricky to conjure up.

Not only do they orgasm much more easily than a woman because their “plumbing” is just much more simple that way, but they also have access to  the most effective sexual enhancement drugs like Levitra and Cialis and let’s not forget Viagra.  They have it made when it comes to building an empire in sexual satisfaction basically.

Women are more complex creatures. Yes, we have the clitoris which can produce mountain of ecstasy and pleasure when it is manipulated correctly by our partners (or ourselves of course), but we also have it much harder when it comes to actually “coming” from sexual intercourse.

Vaginal orgasms are even  more hard to come by than exterior, clitoris stimulated orgasms. Vaginal orgasms feel absolutely amazing, but they require us to be pretty much be in the most focused, zen state of mind to be able to have them like this. Hmm, maybe this is why women tend to be a little more prone to depression than men!

We also correlate sexual pleasure a lot more with our thoughts and our feelings than men do. So, if we’re a little peeved at something or can’t get stress or work off of our mind, or if we’re mad at our partner or resentful, it becomes that much harder for us to conjure up any sort of orgasmic pleasure.

If a pharmaceutical or herbal remedy company came up with some sort of female libido enhancement product that addressed every issue of a woman’s orgasm and had her having them on a frequent basis, I’m telling you, they’d be instant billionaires. Heck, I’d definitely buy it!

New Review : Sinrex

We have a brand new product review of a comprehensive male sexual enhancement and penile enlargement supplement called Sinrex.  This formulation is unique for several reasons, and we like it because it offers a sort of all encompassing targeted formula for not only male virility and performance enhancement, but overall male sexual health.

The ingredients in this product not only help to enhance sexual performance, but they are also excellent additions to your daily intake as the ingredients are beneficial for your health as well.  Ingredients like EGCG, which is a potent antioxidant found in green tea, actually not only enhance energy levels but also are supposed to help regulate appetite for example.

Lycopene is another powerful antioxidant found in the Sinrex formula, and this is an essential ingredient for cell health, most notably being great as a sort of “internal sunburn protectant” from cell damage from the sun’s rays for example.

Omega 3′s are also added, which help to maintain good blood flow to the penis and everywhere else in the body. Creatine has also been added, which is excellent for muscle strength and stamina.  L Arginine is the main ingredient. This helps the blood vessels to remain relaxed, allowing for better blood flow and harder, faster erections.  Without further ado, read our Sinrex review and see what other goodies are in it.

Pheromones and Attraction

There are many ways on how to attract the opposite sex for various socializing types. The most wanted attraction and used attraction is the sexual one. Natural starters of attraction are Pheromones, body chemicals that are capable of influencing other individual’s behavior.

Males are the producers of these pheromones, and while some are “visible” to the smell sent, scientist claim that there are male pheromones that only the female can feel and recognize. What is more interesting, these pheromones are subconsciously sent to females.

As every male body differs from the other, differences in pheromones levels appear also; some with high level some with low level. Today’s perfume industry has taken this pheromone affect into serious element for producing perfume with pheromones in it; the goal – to make less attractive males more noticeable for the opposite sex.

When pheromone-containing perfumes (see our overview of pheromones) started becoming a sensation, various tests were made to see weather it will take action. An interesting test was made in a conference room where 20 CEOs of a big company held their meetings; 4 of the CEO’s where females and 5 CEO assistants where also present. Before the meting began, a certain amount of a perfume with pheromones was sprayed on his chair. This was done in order to preserve the secrecy in the research.

When the meeting started, in short time, all the CEO females were glancing the less attractive male, the assistants were doing the same too. On the break, all the females were sat around him to chat a little. The attraction continued after the meeting when they seemed friendly to the bachelor CEO. It seems that the perfume has done its mission even after the meeting. It has stuck to its clothes from the chair.

This test was one of the many that where done in order to prove the efficiency of perfume with pheromones in them.   Another interesting fact about Pheromones is that they don’t have to be effective when there is a female around, meaning; they possess a kind of post-productive effect. Males produce pheromones to attract women even without a female being present. So, pheromones are easily attached to male clothes. There are many situations when women start feeling sexually aroused when the smell a man’s shirt.

In spite of all pheromones and perfumes, male and female find attraction in the way they socialize and communicate. It doesn’t matter weather he produces pheromones or not, if there is a material for conversation and sense of humor, then attraction has began without applying a perfume.

Men Taking Viagra at Risk From Sex Diseases

As years go by in men’s life, they face certain mother-nature changes in their body. Presumably after the forth decade of life, men seem to need the aid of a specific drug in order to perform in bed. Viagra is the most popular name when it comes to using erectile drugs.

Is it healthy? Yes it is, but only when it is used carefully and in the right amount. Many think that increasing the prescribed dosage will increase the pleasure and the durability, but the contrary appears almost every time. Men, not paying attention to the drug’s ‘manual’, often spend the night in the Emergency Room trying to reduce the blood flow in the male organ due to Viagra overdose.

There is a possibility for men using erectile dysfunction drugs to be seriously exposed on sexual transmitted diseases, like Syphilis, Chlamydia, HIV and even AIDS. A research done by Dr. Anupam Jena from Harvard Medical School in Boston showed that high number of ED (erectile dysfunction) users were target to STDs (sexual transmitted deceases).

There is more concern about the fact that they target to STDs 12 month prior to their first prescription of ED drugs. Dr. Anupam Jena looked into 33,968 men’s health insurance records that had at least one ED drug prescription and 1 million with no ED drug prescription at all.

Last year, the rate of HIV per 100,000 men was 66.5 men who didn’t use ED drugs and 147.2 men who did. Chlamydia rates are almost triples the number of men using ED drugs – 41 per 100,000 using ED drugs to 15 per 100,000 not using ED drugs.

These entire numbers make a good statement that not only teenagers should get a proper sexual education. There are men well in their forties that have to be good informed about STD’s. Since the goal of Viagra or other ED drugs is to have sexual intercourse, the concern about sexual performance should go beyond longer erection. Users seem to forget the health hazards they are exposed to.

It is quite natural for men to use this type of non-natural male sexual enhancement medication. Nature takes its course in every man’s life. But there are human pleasures that are irresistible and you of course have to resist the urge to “spread your seed” as men were supposedly genetically programmed to do. Don’t ‘argue’ with Mother Nature forcing her to work overtime. She won’t mind if you use ED drugs if you follow the manual.
