How does my butt look???

by Wes McKane , posted May 17 2012 6:57AM

According to a new survey, 82% of women want to know the truth when they ask if new clothes make their butt look big.

According to a survey by a British clothing website called Very.co.uk, women want to know the TRUTH when they're trying on clothes.

--82% of women say that when they ask if something makes their butt look big, they want their significant other to be honest. And 70% think that their man actually WILL answer truthfully.

--But most men KNOW BETTER. 64% of guys admit that they've LIED to their wife when they were asked that question, and, quote, "said the right thing."

--68% of men say that they think telling the truth would make their wife upset . . . and 11% think telling her how she really looks would ruin an entire weekend.

--Of course, women eventually find out how clothes really make them look, and the average woman has $160 worth of clothes in her closet that she's never worn.

Wanna shop???
by Wes McKane , posted Mar 22 2012 7:01AM

Stores put their sale stuff at the back, so you have to walk past ALL the nice, new, full-priced clothes to get there. Are you able to resist and keep plowing toward the cheap stuff? About two out of five people say YES.

--A new survey by the website CouponCabin.com found that 41% of adults in the U.S. say they NEVER buy any clothes unless they're on sale.

--The survey also found 10% of people search online for coupons before they go to a store . . . and use those coupons to determine what they'll buy.

--7% of people actually go to the store, find what they want, then search for a coupon . . . and only buy it if they can find one.

--60% of people say they spend under $50 a month on clothes for themselves and everyone in their household. 20% spend more than $100.

How does your man think....
by Wes McKane , posted Mar 14 2012 7:26AM

We've got the results from a survey on five hypothetical questions for men, and they REALLY give you an insight into the average male brain. Check 'em out . . .

#1.) Would you rather have a one-night stand with RIHANNA . . . or a threesome with two women you know? The more popular answer was . . . a threesome with normal girls over sex with a celebrity. 61% went with a threesome, 39% went with the celebrity.

#2.) Would you rather be as smart as BILL GATES or as "sexy" as RYAN REYNOLDS? Bill Gates's brains made him money which, as we all know, instantly makes you way sexier. Gates won, 62% to 38%.

#3.) Would you rather be bald or look like DONALD TRUMP? Men don't want to be bald . . . but it's better than looking like a clown. Baldness won big, 74% to 26%.

#4.) Would you rather lose a limb or a testicle? 73% would rather lose one of their testes, 27% would rather lose a limb. Think about it: You don't need both testicles. You NEED both limbs.

#5.) Would you rather marry a woman 20 years older than you, or 20 pounds heavier than you? This was the closest one of all. 51% went with a woman 20 years older, 49% went with a woman 20 pounds heavier.
