Mommy's little helper.
If you're talking to a woman at a kiddie birthday bash and realize that she hasn't mentioned having children, is it appropriate to inquire? Does the protocol change when adults are chatting at a cocktail party? Some people avoid all questions that put others on the spot like asking someone's weight, age, or relationship status, while others believe a marriage and offspring inquiry is no Read more
Don't be shy . . . It's time to talk sex toys! And Hysteria director Tanya Wexler is writing us a prescription for pleasure. Tanya's film — what she calls "the vibrator movie you can bring your mom to" — is in limited release and stars Hugh Dancy, Maggie Gyllenhaal, and Rupert Everett.

This question is from a Group Therapy post in our TrèsSugar Community. Add your advice in the comments! I've been with my boyfriend for four years. We see each other often, though we don't live together (we each have our own kids from prior marriages). We have a lot in common, enjoy each other's company, etc. We're in our 40s, so I hope that by now, we have a better idea of what makes a Read more
This question is from a Group Therapy post in our TrèsSugar Community. Add your advice in the comments! Someone please help me. I have some family issues. Let me start off with my mom. I love my mom, but I can't stand the way she is. Her thoughts are very old fashioned. Let me give some examples. She said I can't move out until I'm married (which is totally not going to happen, I plan to move Read more
If there's one thing our moms taught us — besides proper etiquette, being kind, and so on — it's how to be our own stylish entity. From day one, these ladies have been there for our fashion highs and lowest lows.

There's a lot of plot development on this week's Game of Thrones, but with it comes plenty of blood and guts. People lose their heads, arms, intestines, and in Daenerys's case — some very valuable possessions. We catch up with nearly every Stark this week and spend a little time in Winterfell, but each family member is in some sort of danger. Though we are forced to look upon Joffrey's yucky Read more
Lots of moms like to think out loud, and Jo Aaron is one of them. Here is one of the latest posts to her Mommy Brain blog. While innocently looking for a restaurant suggestion online the other day, I stumbled across an anti-parent, anti-child blog entry that just annoyed me. It was an angry (and narrow-minded, in my opinion) piece about how awful it is when this particular person has to dine with Read more
Some say you become a mother the moment you see that positive symbol on the pregnancy stick. Others say it's the instant you hold your newborn or clean a messy diaper for the first time. The second in time you experience the joy and magnitude of motherhood is different for every woman. We've asked celebrity mamas to answer our four little questions about motherhood and the rebuttal to our "you Read more
