The problem with children is that essentially, they’re leeches.

Japanese men are doing weird things to their nipples to attract women

They don’t earn their own money yet have the audacity to demand that you feed and clothe them, while also growing out of said clothes at a rate of knots because growing fast is kinda their ‘thing’.

Back to school is a particularly financially draining time as the leeches need to learn, and in order to learn, they need new school uniform, new shoes, and a whole heap of new stationery.

Everyone loves receiving personal gifts – it shows the person has really thought about you and what you like, and it means much more than just grabbing the most popular item on the shop shelf.

Why I want to get sterilised at 24

One guy who knew this to be true is Nicholas Purvis, a man who went out of his way to buy his girlfriend, Cassandra, the sweetest gift for Christmas 2016.

However, he didn’t just buy a gift for Cassandra – Nick purchased one for her dog, Lucky, too.

Cassandra and Lucky were overjoyed to find they had both… Read the full story

Swimsuits are having a something of a renaissance this summer.

For the last few years, bikinis and tankinis have absolutely dominated the swimwear industry with women being encouraged to bare it all.

How to deal when you take a big gamble and it doesn't pay off

So thank God that the humble costume is back.

Unfortunately, however, some designers are trying to ruin it all for everyone.

They’re trying to make it so that you never want to look at a swimsuit ever again.

By creating this monstrosity:

But have they let themselves go? And how far into a relationship should you just let it all hang out?

It’s when you’re travelling that you come across the real oddballs.

Head to any hostel outside the UK and you’re guaranteed to come someone who’ll make you doubt your own sanity.

And that’s OK because you can escape if you need to.

On planes, however, you’re stuck with them. And it can be alarming when they’re carrying something mad.

When you live and work in London, you can go quite some time without seeing a lot of greenery.

And when you do see the occasional plant or tree, you don’t particularly appreciate it.

How does the age you start your period affect your life?

That’s why we need nature shoved in our faces a bit.

We need fancy parks, and we need this project, created by TfL in collaboration with The Edible Bus Stop.

We’ve all aspired to be a Disney prince or princess at least once during our childhoods – or even our adulthoods. But you know who were the real MVPs? The villains.

Over the years, people have gone to varying lengths in the hope of losing weight.

In recent times, we’ve been ‘blessed’ with fads such as Paleo, the 5:2 diet and the Cambridge Weight Plan.

And now?

Starting your period is a big deal. 

If you’re lucky, you’re well prepared and you know that it’s just another natural step towards adulthood.

Why I want to get sterilised at 24

If you’re unlucky you’ll be somewhere without access to pads or tampons, and if you’re really unlucky you won’t know what’s going on, and assume that you’re bleeding to death. But however and wherever it starts, it changes your life.

I’d always thought that those changes were limited to having to carry tampons around for the rest of forever and spending at least two days of the… Read the full story

It’s always best to be honest when starting a new relationship – otherwise you never know what’s going to come back to bite you in the future. 

Be the villain you were destined to be with Primark's new Ursula bag

One guy learned this the hard way after his girlfriend of a year discovered that he was father two a 12-year-old child – at least, according to the live-tweeted story of an author.

Understandably, the girlfriend was confused and upset – and she wanted an explanation.

When one guy faced a bit of an insect problem in his kitchen, he knew there was only one way to deal with it. 

How does the age you start your period affect your life?

Repellent works great – but of course the main problem with exterminating insects is actually getting them to the repellent.

If you’re a person with a vagina, you’re likely vaguely aware of your cervix.

It’s that bit that connects the uterus to the sexy-vagina bit. It’s narrow. It’s fairly far up your vag, and it hurts like a f***er if it gets poked by someone’s penis.

But beyond that, most of us are pretty clueless.

Festival holidays are a unique experience.

Nowhere else is it acceptable to walk around covered in mud, glitter and face paint, chewing your cheeks and reeking of cider.

How to deal when you take a big gamble and it doesn't pay off

It takes about a week to recover from any festival. As soon as you leave the muddy ket-interested field, it all catches up on you and you suddenly age about a year.

Wouldn’t it be great to be able to go a festival with the same great acts, the same amazing food, the same buzzing atmosphere…but without the seven day come down?… Read the full story

Lots of work has been done over the past few years to make public breastfeeding a less daunting experience for mothers. 

The generally accepted wisdom is that a woman should be able to feed her baby as and when she sees fit, without having to hide in a dirty bathroom or put her baby under some kind of tent arrangement.

Unfortunately, there are still those people who don’t realise how humiliating it is for a woman to be told to cover herself up while feeding.
