Man Lab Link-Off: Cooking

It’s time for another edition of all the links of for the modern man. Let’s kick off with Bar Refaeli. I’m assuming Leo DiCaprio is either blind or in the closet to dump Bar. It’s just impossible to think he had a logical reason.

Don’t ask me how this UBC study works but it essentially says that women love bad boys. Proud or shamed looking men are more attractive to women than happy men. Maybe that Twilight dude was onto something. (Health Zone)

Man Lab: Sleep Like an All-Star (Infographic)

Did you know that one of the most important things that a man can do is sleep? They say that we sleep for an average of a third of our lives. I used to think that sleep is for the weak and informed friends of that on several occasions. Turns out that I was wrong all along. According to the following infographic, a couple more hours of sleep can make a world of difference. Continue reading →

After a week off, it’s time for the return of the Man Lab’s linkdump to help the modern man. To make up for our absence, here’s Kate Upton.

The latest fad in scientific studies is on the health benefits of sex. Good news: Sex is good for you. Bad news: None of these studies are looking for test subjects in my neck of the woods. (Wall Street Journal)

Man Lab: Adele 101

Not to make it seem like the Man Lab is a glorified music review service but our theory is that it never hurts to know about the music that women seem to love. Our last Man Lab music primer was about Arcade Fire. This time, we take a look at British singer Adele. I heard about Adele only a couple of weeks ago from listening to women talk about how much they like her music. Knowing how much common interests help you make an impression with a woman, here’s what you need to know about Adele. Continue reading →

Esquire’s SEO Excellence (with Paz de la Huerta)

When I think of websites that trade largely in page views from Search Engine Optimization (SEO), I think of news aggregator websites or corners of the web best avoided like Bleacher Report. One website that I wouldn’t expect to have gone hard on SEO to drive page views was Esquire.com. But I found some interesting URLs for their latest “Me In My Place” shoot with Paz de la Huerta. Turns out that they’re using some pretty neat words in their URLs to act as SEO keywords.

After the jump, I use some craptacular SEO to show off Esquire’s great SEO URLs with bonus pictures of Paz de la Huerta. Continue reading →

Man Lab Showdown: Anna Kendrick vs. Aimee Teegarden

Normally, I like to think that my choices for eye candy on the Sunday Link-Off are superior to Jackie’s choices for the Entertainment Link-Off. This past weekend, however, it was too close to call if you ask me. So I’ve decided to open up the Man Lab to determine who is the better looking young, up-and-coming Hollywood starlet featured on the blog this weekend. In one corner is Anna Kendrick, a brunette who shot to fame co-starring with George Clooney in Up in the Air and by appearing in Twilight so she clearly has some comedic chops. Aimee Teegarden clearly prefers teen-oriented material with appearances in teen angst dramas such as Friday Night Lights and Gossip Girl.

More pictures and the poll after the jump. Continue reading →

Man Lab Link-Off: The Debut

In order to further our ever expanding agenda to help men, we’re introducing a linkdump to our Man Lab series. In the MLLO, we’re going to link to stories that will give men advice they need. And let’s start our first Man Lab linkdump with Lily Aldridge who definitely wouldn’t cause any cold feet dressed like that.

Part of the job of the Man Lab is to help you figure out women. So that’s why we dug up this handy Woman to English dictionary. (Match)
