Men’s Grooming: Bush is Out!

It’s official, Obama is in and Bush is out, politically and also in terms on men’s grooming. More and more men are getting on the grooming bandwagon and trimming their bush.


Recently, I conducted my own unofficial men’s grooming survey to find out how many man were actually manscaping. The results, 7 out of 10 have participated in the men’s grooming activity of trimming le bush.

There were two main catalysts for this daring activity: boredom and curiosity. Boredom, you're home sitting and there’s nothing good on the tv. Runner up was curiosity, you see something on tv about women waxing their bush or perhaps heard the rumor that being clean shaven heightens your sensitivity, so as you lather up in the shower you get to thinking about how yours would look and so on.

Either way, you wind up less hairy and liking it. Woman to man, we like the look too.

I encourage all of you to at least try it once, however, as your go-to girl for style, I would be

remiss to not mention a few details if you are thinking about trying this at home.

1) Don't do it drunk or on a dare.

2) Avoid using the kitchen shears. It's rude and gross.

3) Don't go too close. You're not trying to go prepubescent, just trim.

4) Don't try to trim anything you can't see. No explanation needed.

5) Avoid the home wax kit. Wax is messy,sticking and not for amateurs. If you really get into it go visit a men's spa for the real deal.

In closing, manscaping is more common than you think so go ahead and give it a whack, you might like it.

Did I ask for a Dirty Sanchez?

Do you really know what you're eating? Your favorite restaurant may be giving you a Dirty Sanchez and you don't even know it.


I am completely grossed out. I was listening to one of my favorite blog talk radio shows - The Daily Mix to get my daily dose of reality and that’s when I heard the news. A slew of restaurants in one of my favorite cities, Las Vegas, were sited for having fecal matter. Not mouse fecal matter but real human. Now, of course, we know its not just in Vegas, that can happen and does happen everywhere!


How does it happen? Easy, despite the signs that are posted in every restaurant that any moron can read - employers are choosing to not wash their hands!

Come on people, if you go to the bathroom and touch anything - wash your hands. If I wanted a Dirty Sanchez, I’d order one.

Apparently, those signs in the restroom don’t mean a thing. Please, I beg all restaurant owners, drill your employees on personal hygiene. Add “immediate termination if you do not wash your hands” to your employee handbook and sign. The not washing the hands thing is not cool - anywhere.

I am grossed out. I can’t even breath, I’m so upset. And the 3 most common reasons people don’t wash their hands: laziness, fear of germs on the facet or they think since they only touched their own package, so its okay. Go figure!

For those of you who refuse to wash your hands, whether you work at a restaurant or just like to network and shake hands, think about how you would feel if someone gave you a Dirty Sanchez and you didn’t ask for one! Not so pretty, right?
