05.27.10Catfight! Carrie Bradshaw vs Anne SextonSo after months of anticipation, the new SATC movie hits the cinemas today. Ho hum... Don't get me wrong, parts of the series were indeed very funny, but the first movie seemed to think that product placement constituted a storyline. The whole thing felt like an extended infomercial, featuring some rather ditzy forty-somethings in nice frocks. My own problem with SATC is that people who don't know me expect me to be Ms Bradshaw, and of course, I'm not. Not even in the slightest.

05.11.10But ginger, vegetarian, feminist, anarchists make the best lovers of all!So vegetarians have more energy and feminists are better lovers, but a few years back a German study found that redheads have more sex. Interesting... But then I came across a song claiming that anarchists are in fact better lovers. Not a great song, mind, but you can check it out here. So it's possible that vegetarian, feminist, anarchists with red hair are the ultimate sexual partners. But where can I find one? I'd like to check. For scientific purposes, of course...

05.11.10Feminists are also better in bed!Despite their image as ugly man-haters, feminists are better lovers. Fact! A study published in the journal Sex Roles surveyed students and older adults. They found that students and older women who had male partners that considered themselves feminists had happier relationships and that men with female feminist partners were more sexually satisfied. Just letting you know... Read more here.

05.11.10Vegetarians make better lovers!A friend sent me the link to this article claiming that vegetarians make better lovers. Hmmm.. he's a vegan, so obviously he'd think so! PETA has been promoting the idea for years and yes, veggies do taste better and are less likely to be obese, which means more energy and better sexual performance. Luckily I don't eat red meat. :-) Read the full article here.
