Study: Less Attractive Husband = Happy Marriage!??


The Journal of Family Psychology has released a study that finds the best marriages belong to women who marry men that are less attractive than themselves.

Psychologists who studied newlyweds found men who were better-looking than their wives were more likely to be unhappy and have negative feelings about their marriage.

In couples where the wife is more attractive, both partners tended to be very content.

The research, suggests that, in evolutionary terms, women are less choosy about their man’s looks as long as he is able to help them reproduce.

Men, however, are programmed to choose a mate who is most likely to pass on their genes and look for youth, health and physical attractiveness.

The tests involved 82 couples married within the previous six months.

Hmm..so if he is hot, than she is unhappy. But if she is hot and he is ok than they are both happy.

I get it!!

Should Pregnant Women Be Able To Park In Handicapped Parking?


A Southern California lawmaker is proposing to the state Legislature,  that women in their third trimester of pregnancy should be able to park in a spot reserved for the disabled.

AB 1940 would declare all women in their final three months of pregnancy, and through their first two months after giving birth, as having a “temporary disability.” They could then pay $6 to the Department of Motor Vehicles to access any disabled spot in California marked with a blue and white wheelchair symbol for that five-month period.

The proposed law, similar to a measure that failed four years ago, is drawing criticism from some advocates for the disabled, who say blue-zone parking is in short supply; from women’s rights groups, who dislike labeling pregnancy as a disability; and from a coalition of ob-gyns, who encourage their patients to exercise.

“Overall, physicians want pregnant women to be active, so this bill is actually counterproductive,” said Shannon Smith-Crowley, legislative advocate for the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists chapter in California.

I agree with the women’s rights groups. Who thought of this??  It makes us all look incompetent.  Women have been getting pregnant for centuries and haven’t needed to park closer to the store…

Being pregnant is not a handicap and I think most expectant moms know that.

Besides, many stores across North America offer expecting mom parking spots close to the door.  Isn’t that good enough?

Boyfriend Sleeps As Girlfriend Delivers Newborn in The Bathroom


I have heard of sound sleeping, but this my be ridiculous!

New Dad Antony Probets recounted yesterday how he slept through the birth of his baby - as his girlfriend delivered it herself in their bathroom.

The 19-year-old was vaguely aware of Gemma McSheffrey’s screams as he snored away but thought he was just having a bad dream.

And he only came to when Gemma, 20, staggered back into the bedroom cradling their crying 7lb 3oz girl in her arms.

The new mom said:

“I was screaming for Antony all the time but he was fast asleep so I did it all on my own. Then I walked into the bedroom with the baby in my arms.

Gemma and Anthony had gone to the hospital hours before, but she was sent home because the first-time mom was still only in the early stages.

When the couple got home Gemma’s contractions suddenly got worse. Then the next thing she knew her water had broken.

“I was absolutely terrified because I didn’t have a clue what to do but I didn’t want the baby to become distressed, she said.”

Once the baby arrived, the new mom wrapped her and took her to see her dad. It was her cries that woke him up. He then cut the cord!
