Even though the title of sexiest banker was given out long ago (Meredith Whitney, duh), some who work in finance remain unsatisfied, I guess. What other possible explanation would there be for a banking career website to sponsor a "sexiest banker poll" and invite users to vote? And what deep, all-consuming sadness would …
Steve Tappin is a CEO expert. We're pretty sure of this because he describes himself on LinkedIn as "CEO Xinfu, Host of BBC CEO Guru & Founder, WorldOfCEOs.com." He's also a "personal confidant to many of the world’s top CEOs." Steve is very popular.
In the world of rejections, I always think of the movie Say Anything: A guy is allowed/expected/culturally celebrated for wooing his ex back with grand gestures. It would be a very different movie if she simply called the police. (If a heartbroken woman holds up a boom box in the rain outside her ex's bedroom, the only …
A new report from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington finds that in 2011, in a nation-wide study of counties, the lowest levels of obesity in men were found in San Francisco and New York. The New York Daily News crows, "Manhattan men nation's 2nd-skinniest." Meggings for…
And now for the most important question of our time: what is a "bro," exactly? It was the second-most popular plea for clarity my parents made while visiting me at college (the first most popular was, "Why in God's name are you basically pursuing a degree in analyzing vampire erotica?"). "Callie," they would ask, "what do…
Stubble is hot. You know this. And now science confirms it. To be clear: We're not talking about a soul patch or an elborate Riff-Raff style swirling goatee. Just plain old stubbly, scruffy, ungroomed facial hair.
There was a crucial moment when I was newly pregnant where I had to make a choice whether to take a (better-paid) job that would have me still in clubs, reviewing rock shows three or four nights a week for an alt-weekly while gestating, or peel off to the more family-friendly track of writing about culture with…
"Finally, There's a Pinterest For Guys," said some sad soul in www.reddit.com/r/MensRights, probably.
Last week marked the birthday of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain (he would have been 46), a dude who was cool about a lot of stuff — guitars, hair colors, well-worn sweaters, infectious hooks — but one of the things he was the coolest about was women. Or rather, his ardent support of their absolute equality. Kurt Cobain…
Hello, muffins. Here at this site, we spend a lot of time railing against the shitty shit that dudes do, because, come on, shitty shit is shitty. It's shitty to act like women owe you attention and/or genital touching simply because you're noble enough to refrain from being an abusive dick-monster. It's shitty to tell…
If there's one thing I'm always going to remember about the 2012 election, it's that it was the moment I first saw the white male monopoly lose its vise-grip on American culture. Not that white men aren't in charge anymore—they are, and they will probably always be a dominant political bloc—but there's a sense that…
The good news is: feminism happened, so men don't get to just run around slapping our asses with impunity anymore. The bad news is that now that overtly piggish behavior is heavily, heavily socially discouraged, there's a subset of men who resort to less overt means when they want to act like jerks. Meet the Nice Guy.
Yes, yes, yes, I know there are a billion kooky subcultures floating around out there on the internet, most of which are incredibly offensive to human beings with clear eyes and full hearts, and ripping them to shreds on a widely read blog is the very easiest of all pickins. And I knooooooooow we shouldn't give…
This whole WSJ article about the differences between men's and women's travel habits is super interesting—and you ought to read it—but I just want to talk about this one passage right now because I just completely rage-hulked out of my pajama jeans:
"Oh, she may be weary. Young girls, they do get weary, wearing that same, old, shaggy dress."
In theory, preemptive Facebook stalking should serve to help would-be blind daters avoid an awkward first encounter. In practice, it can entangle you in a web of awkwardness and obligation, and then give people you never care to speak to again a means to contact you — crappily. In today's edition of Crap Email from a…
What with Whitney and The New Girl and Girls and Girls in a Restaurant or whatever that fourth one is, it's obvious that girls have been on top of the media heap for TOO LONG within the past nine months! That's why I'm so relieved that the brave bros of Men at Work are here to speak for the voiceless, and break the…
Men who work in female-dominated professions spend more time on "guy" chores like home repair, yard work, and car maintenance, according to the American Journal of Sociology. The study's author argues that it's not because these men might enjoy those activities, or because they're eager to help out around the house…
Welcome back to Guysourcing, where a panel of helpful gentlemen answer your questions! This week, we asked, "When it comes to breasts, does size matter? Are there other boob characteristics that really do it for you? Basically, what are your breast preferences?" Here's how guys responded:
Chris Brown just can't seem to stop pissing off gigantic people who want to punch him in the face. Earlier this week, the perpetually shit eating grin-wearing singer once again couldn't resist the siren's call of spazzing out at a detractor on Twitter, accusing him of having shrunken genitalia. That detractor was…
As the 2012 political season heats up, it's important that we don't lose sight of what's really important in the election cycle: the fuckability levels of candidates' sons. Since Mitt Romney's got the sons with the squarest jawlines, let's start Decision 2012 with an epic Romney on Romney edition of Fuck, Marry, Kill.
Welcome back to Guysourcing, where a panel of helpful gentlemen answer your questions! This week, again by reader request, we asked, "how do you feel about men who catcall at women? Have you ever done it? If so, why? Do you understand why other men do it?" Read on for the guys' responses.

You better be careful when choosing a hot-dude calendar because, unlike real life sexy men, you have to keep it around for a whole year. The good news is that sexy men calendar makers are starting to catch on that what women like more than sexy men is humor and, above all, cute animals.
A tipster recently wrote to tell us that Forever 21 didn't divide its wares into "men's" and "women's" categories — rather, its clothes were for "men" or "girls." We decided to investigate — and to take a look at what its competitors call their male and female customers. Below, a breakdown.
Forever 21: At first glance,…
Welcome back to Guysourcing, where a panel of helpful gentlemen answer your questions! This week, at the request of a reader, we asked guys, "do you ever cry, and if so, what makes you cry?

Welcome back to Guysourcing, where a panel of helpful gentlemen answer your questions! This week's question was the following: "how do you feel about condoms?

Amber Madison traveled the country asking straight single men to fill out a questionnaire about sex, love, dating, and relationships. She learned that men are much less dickish than pop culture would have you believe — but many of them aren't above lying for sex.
