Many children struggle to decide what theme they’re going to use for their birthday party. While some ponder over whether to go for a Disney theme or a superhero theme – others struggle to decide whether they want a theme at all.

Body shaming is rife in all walks of life.

And women get called out on how they look every single day.

Chocoholics rejoice! Triple Chocolate M and M's are coming

But the last women you’d expect to face that kind of body image scrutiny would be Olympic athletes.

U.S triple gold medal gymnast Aly Raisman, however, says that she was subjected to humiliating body shaming going through airport security.

Despite her being a pretty big name in the athletics world – especially over in the states – Aly says that she was made to feel uncomfortable by a male member of the security team who made a derogatory comment… Read the full story

My favourite book as a teenager was Rebecca, by Daphne du Maurier, the story of a much younger second wife who is driven somewhat mad by the haunting presence of her husband’s first wife. 

This dad's topless selfie is gaining thousands of likes for the sweetest reason

Which turned out to be kind of ironic, given how things turned out for me.

I couldn’t have been more surprised to find myself engaged at 24.

That said, I’m a basic bitch, so I had been low-key planning my wedding since I was six. The key feature?

A Catholic ceremony in the chapel at my old school.

Unfortunately for me, as is so often the case, life had other plans.

The (wonderful) man I’m marrying is divorced.

Which means that my marriage and I are not welcome in the religion in which I was raised. No Catholic church wedding.

In fact, no church wedding at all.

When 19-year-old Jack Potter left school, he and his friends stopped seeing as much of each. It’s hard, but it happens to all of us.

A three-time gold medal gymnast faced body shaming at the airport

Jack, who’s originally from Dagenham and now lives in Brentwood, was getting sick of all the cancelled plans – and decided enough was enough.

While sitting in a pub garden with his friend, Will Southgate, the pair decided to bribe their friendship group to come and join them by sending them a photo of five pints of beer ready and waiting for them.

Although some of us may think of a baby’s outfit when the word ‘romper’ is brought up, there have been playsuits for women for a while now.

However, a new word quickly became a gamechanger over the last few weeks – a RompHim, which appeared on a Kickstarter for male rompers.

Those behind the revolutionary new outfit designed exclusively for men state on the page that they ‘spent countless hours designing the RompHim to be your favourite summer outfit’.

One man has warmed the hearts of thousands after uploading a photo of his proposal to Reddit.

User eugenius310 proposed to his boyfriend, Chris, right at the drop of Disney’s Splash Mountain ride.

As they approached the big drop, eugenius310, who was sitting behind Chris, held up a sign that read ‘Will You Marry Me?’ as the automatic camera snapped away.

You might think that the way to shred fat effectively is to go as hard as possible in the gym.

After all, we know that starving ourselves to try and slim down just doesn’t work.

Can we stop using education to punish young women, please?

And if we want a calorie deficit, we need to be sweating more.

Right?

According to a nutritionist, the opposite might be true.

Jessica Sepel says that working out too frequently might actually stop you from getting rid of extra weight.

You can’t walk within a block of a Lush store and not smell it (there is actually no better kind of advertising).

Did you know they also offer some of the most indulgent spa treatments on the beauty scene?

In 2009 Lush launched its first in-house SPAs in the UK.

The space was (and still is) inspired by all the most relaxing elements of the English countryside: think, a calming cup of tea in a cosy cottage kitchen and early morning birdsong.

There are 19 Lush Spas’s around the world and nine in the U.K – including one in Oxford Street in central London.

Altogether there are 11 treatments available to pick from, including a deep tissue massage called The Good Hour (half an hour version also… Read the full story

A vegan doner kebab stall, What The Pitta, is opening up in Boxpark, Shoreditch next month.

The UK’s first vegan kebab brand, this is going to be their second permanent branch – meaning you won’t have to schlep down to Croydon to get your chops round a delicious, plant-based wrap.

Can we stop using education to punish young women, please?

The kebabs use non-GMO soya chunks which are then marinated in a blend of Middle Eastern spices before being grilled for that authentic smokey kebab flavour.

The wraps are then filled with homemade hummus, tzatziki, and fresh salads.

Any trend can be made in porn – no matter how lame or SFW.

So it shouldn’t come as a massive surprise to discover that fidget spinner porn is a thing.

In fact, searches for ‘fidget spinner’ have been up 282% on average, with the site receiving 2.5 million searches for videos involving the toy over a 10-day period from the start of May.

When planning a wedding, it’s important to get things just right – for the bride and groom and their guests, to ensure everyone enjoys the day.

Of course, the matter of children can make things difficult – while some couples choose to make their weddings child-free, others hire things such as bouncy castles to keep them entertained.

And others go the extra mile to make sure the children are just as comfortable as the adults – which is exactly what one couple… Read the full story

Wine is one of the world’s greatest joys. Wine is what the universe sent to us to make up for waxing and the month of February.

Happy? Celebrate with wine. Sad? Drown your sorrows. Hungry? Wine for dinner.*

*All of this is very bad advice. Don’t follow it.

Who doesn’t love a good takeaway?

There goes the mundane stress of having to decide what you want to make, assessing the inventory in the cupboards, followed by all that chopping, dicing and seasoning.

The chore is thankless, endless… and we haven’t even gotten onto the washing up aspect yet, which is the cause of many a family fight.

You can magic all those issues away with the humble takeaway – but even that isn’t totally simple because your choice of what you order says a lot about you as a human being.
