Most Common Girls’ Passwords

Personal security and privacy are issues of extreme sensitivity for women. So its a bit of a mystery that when it comes to passwords, they tend to be really open-minded. Most of them possess supernatural abilities of having their passwords stolen and getting hooked by highly unskilled phishermen. Here are ten reasons why:


1. 123456/abcdef/aaaa/1111
This is like delivering a low blow to the whole concept of “password”. Yeah they are really easy to remember but then they are among the very few combination’s that every tom, dick and harry hacker will try before scratching his bottom.

2. password
How exceedingly innovative! Most women will not dare take a hike through the treacherous canyons and crevasses of the brain. Surveys however have unearthed some extremely intellectual anomalies with “password?” being of evolutionary importance.

3. asdf/qwerty
Many shapely, aerobics obsessed women will keep their passwords as consecutive keys of a single row, as research has shown that moving fingers up and down the keyboard will make them witch-like bony.

4. name/nickname
Keeping the name or a nickname as the password is a primordial instinct, with some extremely cautious belladonnas adding the year of birth too. Many will also raise blast walls around their accounts by setting the secret question as “What is my name?” As the first question asked by most women from e-males is “Where did you get my e-mail address”, perhaps they are rapidly realizing the dangers of revealing the password

5. City name/Country name
Another female favorite. Some women move around a bit, changing passwords as they trot. A quick ASL however will provide a malicious contact with all the information. Recently, a patriotic women organization known as the “Ladies of Overt Nationalism” (LOON) has accused the internet of acting against national interest by imposing a minimum length of 6 characters, which deprives them from the password “USA”.

6. Friend’s name
This can be a tricky one for hackers if they don’t know the girl. However the most basic social engineering moves will do it. In case the best friend eloped with her boyfriend, the addition of prefix “fuck” or suffix “bitch” usually does the trick.

7. Phone number/ Address
Moving up the IQ ladder, the passes get progressively complex. However, many women will unwittingly give them out and realize later, when the flowers are not delivered.

8. Favorite personality
Housewife favorites. These can usually be picked up on instant messengers in personal messages like “YOU ARE SO HOT ” or the Now Playing messages. If all this fails, just look at the profile photo.

9. Favorite sports teams
These are common with active, outdoors types. The passwords “arsenal” and “liverpool”, have been widely encountered and are noted for their negligible ill effects on fingers and brain, both for the victim and the perpetrator.

10. Favorite movies
If one was to compare a list of common women's passwords with a list of the dumbest movies ever made, the amount of positive matches would be staggering. Hackers have realized this long ago and their wordlists usually abound with variants of “gonewiththewind” and “uvegotmail

Spider bite causes 4-hour erection

Scientists believe a spider could lead to a breakthrough in sexual health after finding a single bite can cause a four hour erection.
Researchers at the Medical College of Georgia believe the venom of the Brazilian wandering spider could lead to a new cure for erectile dysfunction.


Dr Kenia Nunes, a physiologist at the college, said it works in a different way to Viagra, reports the Daily Mail.
"This is good because we know that some patients don't respond to the conventional therapy. This could be an optional treatment for them," she said.

Her study, published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine, involved experiments using hypertensive rats with severe erectile dysfunction.
"The toxin was able to normalise the erectile dysfunction in these animals," said Dr Nunes.
However, further research is required. Other side-effects can include loss of muscle control, severe pain, difficulty breathing and death.

Dr Nunes added: "The venom of the Phoneutria nigriventer spider is a very rich mixture of several molecules.
"These molecules are called toxins, and then we have various toxins in this venom with different activity.
"Because of this, when a human is bitten by this spider, we can observe many different symptoms including priapism, a condition in which the penis is continually erect."
