Can Diabetics Drink Diet Soda(Soft Drinks) ?
















Those with diabetes might have the same cravings for the bubbly fizz of soda, but worry that they shouldn't drink regular soda because of the high level of sugar--the average can of soda contains the equivalent of eight teaspoons of sugar. Diet soda, sweetened with NutraSweet or some other artificial sweetener, might provide a safe alternative for diabetics.

How Big Is the Average Penis?








Your days of awkward Google searches are over: The average penis is 5.6 inches (14.2 centimeters) long when erect, says new research from the Journal of Sexual Medicine.
(We’ll wait while you go and grab a tape measure.)
Researchers asked guys to measure their penis length and girth in the privacy of their own homes. The researchers told the testers to mark themselves at full mast and report how they got there, whether it was via masturbation, oral sex from a partner, fantasizing, or other means.
Not only did the researchers discover the mean length of an erect penis, but also found that men who received oral sex in order to get their erection reported significantly larger numbers than guys who only fantasized.
What gives? It’s difficult to say. The measurements used for this study were pulled from a larger study that involved testing two types of condoms, so you don’t get much context from the responses—just the facts.
But the facts do reinforce preexisting penis stats. The researchers say that the sizes in their study were consistent with those from previous studies, which suggests that guys are actually pretty honest when it comes to talking about their junk.

So the next time you are in the hospital and there is someone you are talking to always ask what their designation is. Here are some tips to identifying impostors

10 Surprising Health Benefits of Love








I need somebody to love," sang the Beatles, and they got it right. Love and health are intertwined in surprising ways. Humans are wired for connection, and when we cultivate good relationships, the rewards are immense. But we're not necessarily talking about spine-tingling romance.
"There's no evidence that the intense, passionate stage of a new romance is beneficial to health," says Harry Reis, PhD, co-editor of the Encyclopedia of Human Relationships. "People who fall in love say it feels wonderful and agonizing at the same time." All those ups and downs can be a source of stress.
It takes a calmer, more stable form of love to yield clear health benefits. "There is very nice evidence that people who participate in satisfying, long-term relationships fare better on a whole variety of health measures," Reis tells WebMD.

Tips To Preventing Abnormal Vaginal Discharges

  • Wash underwear with hot water every time to kill bacteria. You may also want to avoid fabric softeners when washing your underwear as they can cause allergies or irritation which can lead to infection.
  • Stay hydrated every day. The vagina can become dehydrated right along with the rest of the body and this can create a different smell and different levels of discharge. If you become dehydrated, you are more susceptible to a urinary infection which can lead to a yeast infection, and vice versa.

Fluorine is the 13th most abundant element on Earth, and you'll find it all around us in the air and water.

8 reasons why men watch pornography






1. They enjoy sexual excitement and release and porn delivers.
2. They like sexual variety and porn has an endless selection to choose from.

Here are 4 signs to look for to spot an abusive relationship.







Many women are in an abusive relationship and don't even know it.  At Guy Stuff Counselling we hear every week from women looking for relationship advice.  Many of these women are in an abusive relationship, but just can't see it.
These women often feel confused, lonely, and helpless about their relationship, but don't know that the reason why is because they're in an abusive relationship.  The majority of women we work with aren't in a physically abusive relationship, but instead suffer emotional abuse and verbal abuse, which can be much harder to call out as abusive.
Here are 4 signs to look for to spot an abusive relationship
  1. Living in an atmosphere of fear, intimidation and unpredictability.
  2. Does your spouse react with a violent rage to the slightest upset? If your spouse’s reactions to events are exaggerated then you are living with abuse that is disproportionate to the imaged offense.
  3. The abuser engineer’s impossible, dangerous, unpredictable, unprecedented, or highly specific situations in which he is needed, depended on or considered the only source of authority, knowledge, skills, or useful traits.
  4. Most abusers lack empathy. They dehumanize and treat people like inane objects, extensions of themselves, or instruments to be played as they wish.
