I just checked out there site. Some headings I saw were:

-Give him a hand
-Lap-dance tips
-Talk dirty to him!
-5 ego boosts he needs
-Why guys lose interest
-4 ways to hook him

hahahaha!!!

You should stick with Netscape and possibly iVillage as those places are for more inline with your content.
