Break-Ups Are Harder on Men Than Women?
Here’s more proof that men are only pretending to be tough and emotionless: A new study in England found guys might actually get MORE emotional about break-ups, and have a harder time with them than women do.
Researchers looked through posts from an online forum where 184,000 people asked for advice, or just vented about break-ups. And they found men were more likely than women to talk about the HEARTBREAK they were going through.
In general, men are less likely to talk about their emotions with friends, and more likely to ask for advice online. So the researchers say it’s possible men get just as emotionally invested in things as women, or even MORE so. They just hide it, because they don’t want to seem like a wuss.
Starbucks’ Holiday Menu Includes a New “Sugar Cookie” Iced Latte
Starbucks switches to its holiday menu today, and they’ve got one new drink this year . . . an iced latte that’s supposed to taste like CHRISTMAS COOKIES.
It’s called the Iced “Sugar Cookie Almondmilk Latte.” It’s non-dairy . . . made with sugar cookie-flavored syrup . . . and comes with red and green sprinkles on top. Here’s a photo.
Their other five holiday flavors are all old drinks you might have had before: They’re bringing back their Caramel Brulée Latte . . . Toasted White Chocolate Mocha . . . Chestnut Praline Latte . . . Irish Cream Cold Brew . . . and their Peppermint Mocha is back for the 19th year in a row.
They’ve also got four holiday bakery items: Their Sugar Plum Cheese Danish, Cranberry Bliss Bar, and Snowman Cookie are all back. And they added a new Reindeer Cake Pop to their lineup. Here’s a photo of all four.
They just unveiled their red holiday cups as well, which are all very Christmasy. (But don’t actually feature the word “Christmas.” There was a big to-do a few years back, when they were accused of purging Christmas from their cup designs.)
Each of the four designs this year are supposed to resemble wrapped presents.
