    Kylie Minogue & The 'Dog Years' Relationship Theory

SUBSCRIBE here: Support independent women's media  Also, suddenly everything that is bad for us is good again. The culture would have us believe that smoking is back, red meat is a health food, partying til dawn is aspirational and tanning beds are a nice lie-down.

And her answer has given rise to a new dating theory - the 'Dog Years' relationship.  Oh, and… should you chuck out your toothbrush when you get sick? Amelia’s husband has thoughts.
