    Local news is saying the couple arrested at the Lehigh Pub called the cops themselves. Methinks much of the story hasn't been told.

    Why the fuck would any guy want to numb his penis? It's pretty simple. If you pop too soon you do things that your partner enjoys until you're ready to go again. Not that I have any expertise in this area. Really! I heard it from a friend! I'll go hide now.

    @token_illiterate_commenter: They have numbing creams on the market right now. I was waiting to pick up a prescription at Walgreens and the line happened to be in the "family planning" aisle, where I spotted a tube of something called (no joke) Man-Delay. It had a tiger on the package and everything. I read the label and it is basically Anbesol diluted to numb the penis. I giggled like a fool for a very long time after seeing it.

    @SheelaNaGig: I thought I'd heard of products like that, but a guy would have to have a serious problem to use something like that. Most guys bitch about losing sensation with a condom, how much fun could a numb penis be? On the other hand, a tiger!

    Boy uses spray to numb penis...inserts penis into girlfriends vagina...girlfriend ends up with numb vagina. Sounds like a thoroughly thought out plan to me.

    @la.donna.pietra: In that case it would probably be more accurate to just say that "Going Rogue condensed version prevents ejaculation" I ideas it represents are quiet literally bonerkillers.

    Just a thought, but if the spray numbs the guy's penis, wouldn't it also numb the woman's vagina? From contact? Then she wouldn't be feeling anything either, and the whole purpose of lasting longer is shot to hell.

    Nice try though.

    @Tippi Hedren: It seems like the penis being numb, and unable to feel pleasure might contribute to loss of an erection, too. Maybe I'm thinking about this too much.

    And this is what irritates me about how little most people understand about ED's. They're a form of self destruction, and they're more about...becoming less, fixing something that needs to be starved out of you. A side effect is that, currently in our culture, thinness is equated with beauty...but only as long as you don't look like you're trying. The whole thing is really distressing.

    Plus, ye old, "you should like yourself because men do" trope...yuck. Over it. #attractiveness

    I'm interested to know if they studies different race or ethnic groups, or if they just went with white men. I'm a "big girl" (about 20 pounds of it is weight, the rest of it is just how I'm BUILT), my husband and best friend are Arab, and they go CRAZY for large women. I haven't yet met an Arab man who found white America's "ideal" skinny woman attractive, and from what they both tell me, "large" women are the standard for beautiful in their countries - in fact, they consider a woman who is 20 pounds overweight to look healthier than thin women.

    Any ideas? #attractiveness

    @hollymar: Idea: date an Arabic man. My children will have fabulous hair and glorious skin tone and he will (evidence shows) love my body and make me feel beautiful. I thought they just liked me for my hair color in Turkey, no wonder theys alls was trippin'. #attractiveness

    @hollymar: This is just bad science, and as a scientist I'm offended by it. People who are doing behavioral correlations need to be AWARE of cultural diversification. In different parts of the world, different norms and different genes rule. It's sad to see Hollywood make the standards of beauty more homogeneous, as a matter of fact. #attractiveness

    @Snowbunny: HA! Seriously! I thought there was something wrong with me until I dated Arabs, and then I was like, "OH! Our idea of beauty is just totally fubared!" Actually, my husband told me that in Morocco, men who marry skinny women are made fun of by their friends in the same way guys who date "fat chicks" are by their friends in the U.S. Bonus: The male standard for attractiveness is about the same, so they're as likely to work out and watch their weight as American men. ;) And yes, they do have glorious skin tone and fabulous hair. Mmmmm....now I need to go track that man down... #attractiveness

    As an average-weight woman, this made me happy to read. I know they're oversimplifying the issues of both overweight and underweight women (men won't like you if you're too fat or too thin!), but it makes me feel more confident about my "average" body. #attractiveness

    @Ultraprison!: Good! You SHOULD be happy. Sager's an ass and BBC are insensitive but I don't find anything inherently wrong with either study.

    Tomorrow, there will be another study or magazine or talk show telling me that men prefer underweight women with fake boobs and tiny feet. And tomorrow, independent of any external input, I will still feel awesome about my average body and beautiful face. #attractiveness
