"Mermaid Thigh" Is Just Another Word For "Fat"

Everyone now knows that most men and women desire "Thigh Gap" for different reasons. But it is one of the many ways for women to realize that being healthy is also making them sexy, while being fat will only make them miserable and no amount of colorful play of words such as "Mermaid Thigh" can change that.

The Urban Dictionary website describes "Thigh Gap" in no uncertain terms as "the gap between a woman's thighs directly below the vagina, often diamond shaped when the thighs are together." "Mermaid Gap," on the other hand, is opposite of that.

Testosterone Limits Should Be Imposed on Olympians

When somebody competes in the Olympics, it is important to determine's one's biological makeup and sex to avoid undue advantage.

Hillary Clinton is Definitely Not A Feminist

According to Hillary Clinton's aides, one of the great lessons of 2008 is that she has learned to run toward history, not from it: Instead of downplaying her gender, she'll amplify it, running not just as the potential first female president but as a proud feminist.

If this is correct, then somebody is creating more problem to the Democrats presidential candidate. How can she now explain her husband's decades-long of womanizing — a philanderer at best, a predator at worst?

Politically Right Not Correct All The Time

Too many people today are too caught up with trying to be politically correct in all areas that they tend to forget what being funny is all about. Don't get me wrong on this because I believe that political correctness which would permit any kind of multi-cultural excess is bad - at the other end of the spectrum, raw race hatred is equally bad. Worse, is trying to become indifferent when surrounded by all these issues.

Good thing that artist Jerry Seinfeld agrees with me and made it blunt to everyone who cared to listen that comedy and political correctness don't mix.

Unfortunately, the claim was reported to be false and the allegations were a hoax!
