TV presenter Caroline Flack, 32, is the latest to be labelled a 'cradle snatcher' for her on-off relationship with 20-year-old One Direction singer Harry Styles.

Working Out Naked Has Its Benefits – can you name 3? Working out naked, huh? The Ancient Greeks and Romans did it, so why shouldn't we? Several months ago a story of naked men doing CrossFit began to circulate the internet. It began in Aarhus, Denmark, when the owner of the Danish gym ‘Spartan Mentality’ Steffen Haldrup Andersen, decided to pull an April Fools joke with an ad featuring some ripped, muscular dudes throwing down a few CrossFit Workouts of the Day. CrossFit movements and exercises which included rope climbing, wall ball shots and some weight lifting, most that are arguably uncomfortable to do in the buff – well at least the rope climbs! Andersen’s attitude was that people only wear the briefest of clothing when they come to do CrossFit at the gym anyway, so why bother with wearing anything at all. The ad upon going viral online resulted in a mad rush of requests from men in the surrounding areas who wanted to exercise naked. So, with

Being nude may also be a good way to boost self confidence. With your sleep, skin and supplements taken care of, there's of course the mental component to embracing your nude body. "Spending time in the nude is a great way to get in touch with your body," Dr. Jenn Mann, relationship expert and creator of the "No More Diets" app, told us.

"Being in the nude reduces shame," she added. "You can work on self acceptance and that can be very healing." So take this as permission to let loose and ditch those clothes — after all, it's good for your health! See full story her e

Going braless is a luxury, mostly reserved for people with big boobs, or boobs of a size that omitting harnessing them in fabric doesn't hurt when they jiggle about. I certainly cannot go braless if I'm planning on doing any activity more vexing than casual walking. I mean, I can, but it would be sore. And I don't want to be sore. Still, I am a huge advocate for bralessness in low impact situations. Bras are the worst, which is why every person with breasts universally loves the feeling of taking their bra off at the end of the day. Breast liberation at the end of a long day is even more comforting than taking your pants off. If you can combine both, of course, you've won. Women who prefer to go braless are often met with incredulity by underwear traditionalists. We hear things like, "Your breasts will sag," and "How very rebellious of you!" and "Aren't you worried people will be able to see your nipples?" I

What about if you think about working from home? Still no? Well, if you did work from home, you could, in theory, work naked and who would know right? Well, that is the whole idea for this holiday – to honor the freedom that working from home allows you. History of Working Naked Day Working Naked Day was founded by Lisa Kanarek. She created this day and in fact, a brand called Working Naked®. She left a corporate job over 20 years ago, to start working from home. This was not the commonplace choice that it is today. Lisa stated that she didn’t even let on that she was working from home for the first five years for fear of not being taken seriously. My how things have changed! That, my friends, is exactly what Working Naked Day is all about! It is a day to celebrate the freedom and flexib
