Cosmo's Most Creative Sex Positions Ever

I've never read Cosmo much. It always read like nonsense whenever I'd try. To me it's like music interviews, when they interview bands and ask them, "What is rock 'n roll?"

And it's not ever anything you can just quantify in just words. You have to listen to it, feel it and understand it over time to really know the answer. And then if you try to describe it in words, it takes all the meaning out of it.

Quizzes and stuff that diagnose what you should do in one of only two or three situations that could ever occur in life just take all the fun out of life, and usually make you end up worse off. Ugh.

Do people still read that piece of garbage?

Oh right, my roommate in college did, the roommate who slept with a new guy every few weeks.

Wait a minute, doesn't magazines like this prey on the insecurity of the normal female? That tells you a lot about the people who read it seriously. Though in defense of some of the people who read it, I know people who read it just to laugh at it. Some times, it's just hilarious what they come up with.

When you think of it that way, it isn't so surprising isn't it?

I never took the magazine seriously. They have quizzes and advice which I suppose help some but for me it's like reading the book when I've already seen the movie.

Now I do know some females that aren't passionate or sexual and the men they are involved with do not bring it out in them. I also know women who are passionate but not enthused sexually by the men they are with and act out what they see in the magazines because that is what is expected.

Articles like this one cracks me up:

According to a study, there’s a love habit that’s crucial to the health of your union: focusing on each other’s good qualities. Of course, that’s easier said than done. It’s normal to see more of your guy’s flaws over time — the key is not letting them infringe on your affection. “If you can organize your thoughts around his strengths, you’ll concentrate on him as a whole instead of on his imperfections,” says study author John Holmes, PhD, professor of social psychology at the University of Waterloo. He found that couples who do this stay together longer.

Better idea - accept the person for who he/she is in the first place and the "flaws" will be part of the person - not something one has a desire to change.

Now I'm not really interested in the positions they talk about, but more the effect Cosmo has on the female race. Is it really "the bible" for all things sexual and women or is that just a past thing because it amazes me the advice they give. It's good advice because it always seems to be about keeping the man happy so I can't complain, but it seems so blatantly obvious to me that I am baffled any woman wouldn't know these things.

Sex standing up? What? People do that? Oh, I never knew that. Come on.
