Asian Women Seek White Men

When I first saw this I thought they could use one of these in every city…I’d probably go every day.

In Japan a cafe that exists to provide sweets, tea, and royal treatment is attracting customers and recruiting white, western males as servers. In an attempt to escape the largely unromantic culture provided to them by Japanese men, Asian women are seeking out the comforts and indulgence characteristic of western men. Being a westerner myself I’m wondering why I haven’t seen more of these men, but I applaud the idea even if it is based on an untrue stereotype.

You, a Dodgeball, and Teeny Tiny Gym Shorts.

During my senior year of high school and freshman year of college, I managed to pack on about 50 pounds. Lack of exercise and poor diet–very poor diet actually, one really shouldn’t have queso and chips with every meal–caused my gut to expand like it was on a mission to take over the world. I knew I needed to do something about it when I couldn’t fit into the largest size at my favorite store (Express only carries pants up to size 12, and my thighs were not cooperating with a size 12 anymore), but sticking to an exercise and diet regimine is truly a complete lifestyle change that doesn’t happen overnight. It took years for me to develop the horrid eating habits that led me to a whopping 191 pounds on my medium 5′8” frame. I was a mere four pounds away from having a BMI of 30 and being clinically obese, so to turn my life around was going to take continued effort and sustained motivation. More »

The Most Awesome Video I’ve Ever Seen.

I saw it at work, so I didn’t have the volume on. I have no idea what it sounds like, but I still loved it enough to share with you.

CNN Report: “Every Day We Were Raped”

“Whole families were disappearing during the night. Sometimes we could see their bodies in the gardens, sometimes not even that,” says Jasmina of Bijeljina, in northeast Bosnia. “…in April 1992, the Serb soldiers took over her city of Bijeljina, in northeast Bosnia near the border with Serbia, and began to kill, torture and terrorize the Muslims there in a brutal campaign of ethnic cleansing.” What can we do to aid the lives of women who continue to suffer from crimes against humanity?

Sex, The Healthy Way.

Sex. Sex. Though women statistically think about it once every two to three days, I think about it…well, much more than that. I can’t imagine how the tricky little word manages to slip by other women for two to three whole days; to comfort myself, I assume that they’re like me but society pushes them to be demure. Though in our American society we still blush at the subject, sex is undoubtedly the one hobby we all have in common (or at least hope to one day), so a firm grasp of the anatomical machinery below our belly button is imperative to having a fulfilling sex life. Here you are, my sexy readers, a sex blog…

Medical Maladies

As Americans we tend to get caught up in periodic fads that rise up suddenly, washing us away in trendy nothingness, only to disappear as quickly as they came. Beanie babies, 24” spinners, and our odd fascination with actresses who barely register on the talent scale all came in and became the source of water cooler small talk for a few months only to pass away. Though most of our nation’s preoccupations are harmless, some, like the low carb diet, can pose a serious health threat. Other public scares are deemed unhealthy though they pose seemingly no risk at all. For this reason, a list dispelling some rumors and clarifying some murky claims is necessary to keep us all informed and healthy.

Mission Statement?

Welcome to the Unassociated Press: part news, part blog, part submersion into political existentialism. Just kidding on that last part—well, kind of. If the site had a mission statement, it might be to provoke thought on random topics found in pop culture, government policy, and health, but don’t worry, this site doesn’t have a mission statement. I think I’ll just make it up as I go along…that’s the existential part of it I suppose.

Enjoy.
