A post from DoubleX blogger Lauren Bans:
Breaking news ladies: Cougars are oh-so-real. Yep, science has proved

Sandra Bullock is right that The Proposal, out today, is not about cougars.
The movie ignores the age gap between leading lady Bullock, almost 45,

She's giving XXers a sneak peak of tonight's video subject:
