Wait they were having sex while driving? How does that even work?

In a recent interview, Stephen Hawking was asked what he thought about most during the day, and WORDS YOU WANT TO BE LINKED . The vastness of time and space, no problem. Girls and their cooties? We may never know.

The fact that Fifty Shades of Grey is pornographic is really the least of its problems.

After some 60 years of sex research, science-type people are unable to definitively locate a "G-spot." (did you know it's named after a dead German gynecologist? think about THAT during your next sexy times) They're not saying that any and all stimulation is all mental or faked though (except for your girlfriend, OHHHH BURRRRRN). Rather, pleasurable sensation comes from several different structures converging, and there's not a special, particular erogenous gland tucked away in there. I'm sure the test subjects were very happy to assist with studying orgasms.

Hooters Tokyo is making a play to become the premier Tokyo date spot for Valentine's Day by offering two new parfaits (the "Rocket of Love" and the "Volcano of Love," no double entendre there [SARCASTIC EYE ROLL]) and giving a free Hello Kitty x Hooters pin to the first 1,000 customers that day. We're expecting it to also be Tokyo's premier breakup spot when the guys get caught checking out those tiny tight shirts skirts.

For just $5, "Cathy" here (who we're sure is a 100% real woman and the same person as in "her" pictures) will pretend to be your girlfriend on Facebook, and will even post messages to your profile if you're trying to make someone jealous. Because it doesn't matter if you're actually forever alone as long as your friends think you're not forever alone, right?

If you're blessed with such a unique gift, isn't it wrong not to share that gift with the world? And make seven figures off of it? Hazel Jones of the U.K. doesn't think so, as she's declined offer from adult entertainment company Vivid of a first-class trip to L.A. and a million dollars to explore all the possibilities of the twin caves in her southern hemisphere.

You know, her Double Dipper. Her Double Your Pleasure. Her Two For The Show. Her Double Trouble. Her It Takes Two. Her Thing 1 and Thing 2. Her Double Header. Her Double-O Agent. Her Pink Taco Combo Platter.

I got a million of 'em!

What started as a joke by a construction site turned into a full-blown controversy, as the above sign sparked anger among female protesters, even leading to a petition to have it removed.

What do you think? Is it a harmless joke, or a blatant attempt by the male conglomerate to further oppress women through construction site billboards?

In a recent interview, Daniel Radcliffe admitted that girls whose ladyparts are completely shaven "freak me out," and that, "You have to have something, otherwise it's f-cking creepy." Sounds like he wants a landing strip for his Nimbus 2000. A soft downy place to stick his wand. A furry sheath for his Sword of Gryffindor. Yeah, you know.

A variety of studies have come up with some interesting information on the peak environmental factors that affect you gettin' it on. Check the via link for the full list, but here are some of the highlights:

• December has the highest number of conceptions, and August the lowest.
• More than twice as many condoms are sold the week before Christmas than the week after.
• Sex is 17x more likely to happen at midnight than at 10 a.m.
• Sunday is the least popular sexy times day (Friday and Saturday at the most popular).
• Sex is far more likely to be rejected due to a room being too hot than too cold.
• 4 out of 5 Americans say the best time for sex is when it's raining outside.

So in conclusion: if you try to do the horizontal boogie on a Friday or Saturday, in December (the week leading up to Christmas, specifically), in a room that's about 62°, while it's raining, you're pretty much good to go.

There are lots of reasons to be attracted to somebody, but how about smell? New Yorker Judith Prays has invented the Pheromone Party, where partygoers are able to use their smelly shirts to get someone's attention.

At the first one in 2010, forty people were invited, and were all told to wear the same shirt to bed for three nights, without any perfume or deodorant. Everyone brought the shirts with them to the party, which were then put in plastic bags and color- and number-coded. Guests sniffed the various shirts, and if they found one they liked, their picture with the shirt would be projected and that shirt's person would have a green-light to initiate conversation.

The initial party was apparently a huge success, with 12 of the 40 people "hooking up," and half of those beginning long-term relationships. So the next time you're trying to pick someone up at the club, just bring an old dirty shirt and throw it at whoever you think is cute. Same thing, right?
