Things Men Do to Look Hot That Aren't Working!

I was one of the lucky ones... The ones who managed to slip through the cracks of "ugly" early on in high school and were looked at as attractive far before I was deserving of that title. Because of this, I was given my fair share of attention by all kinds of people. Through the years, I have lived through the many courting tactics of men that vary from catcalling to chivalry and everything in between. With my expertise, I bring you my list of the things that men do to appear hot, that are really... Well... NOT! Check out the things that made the cut below:


1. The Lip Licker:

The age old question: Why do men lick their lips so much?

As explained on Twitter: To lubricate their lies...

NOTE: It is still hot when LL Cool J does it!


2. The "aye red shirt!" guy:

WRONG! Because I have a name and you're rude...


3. The guy who grabs his junk all the time for no apparent reason at all:

Please... Wash your hands before attempting to shake mine.


4. The "Oh you got a man? I just want to be your friend" guy:

Here's the gag... I told you that I had a boyfriend so you WOULDN'T talk to me, not to hear your extensive list of alternative relationship options.


5. When they compliment a woman's body straight out the gate:

You pretty much just told me that the possibility of me having a great sense of humor and awesome conversation wasn't one of the reasons you approached me...


6. When they try to use "teaching me" something in the gym or otherwise sports related as an excuse to introduce himself:

Did I do it right that time?


7. Those late night texts and phone calls when you don't even know me like that, bro:

What she said...


8. The guy who is always posting videos of himself grinding on air on social media:

It's so unattractive that it's actually pretty funny.


9. When he goes out of his way to show off his material things:

Because some of us couldn't care less about those things.


10. When he doesn't bring me chocolate strawberries looking like this:

Because how dare you, sir?

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

By: James McDonald

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
