Fatherless Child (Dealing With Daddy Issues)
If you’ve followed this blog for a minute or just know me personally, you already know I have issues with my father. He and my mother divorced at some point during my childhood and, being a military man, he just stayed in California where he was stationed at the time. I’ve always said the divorce [...]
Black Girl Lost (You’re Worth More Than Sex)
Earlier this week I was sitting on my couch waiting for the phone to ring so I could do yet another interview when my BlackBerry went off. I reached for the silver device by my side and saw that I had another comment on one of my posts. It was a screen name I didn’t [...]
Does Rihanna Qualify As a Role Model?
I know I already broke my self-imposed no-Chris-Brown-and-Rihanna-posts ban last week when I wrote about nosy lovers. Well, here I am doing it again for what I deem to be a good reason. While flipping through Entertainment Weekly the other day, I came across a very dope article by writer Mark Harris. Like me, he [...]
Do You Think Accents Are Sexy?

Can a Nosy Lover Push You to Cheat?
For the most part, I’ve tried to avoid touching on this whole Chris Brown/Rihanna fiasco (I also refuse to refer to them as Chrihanna). Besides wanting to hear all the specifics before passing judgment and not just one side or hyped up (mis)information, I already spoke on my views about domestic violence a minute ago [...]
Boobie Traps (Why Men Can't Stop Staring at Your Breasts)
Week before last I went to my homegirl Tina’s birthday party at this spot in Brooklyn. Me and my man Todd were posted up at the bar when our friend Wendy popped up (and out). As soon as I turned around to greet her, all I could see were her breasts, which where [...]
The Demise of Dating
A while back someone sent me this interesting article called “The Demise of Dating,” that ran late last year in The New York Times. It was written by a gentleman by the name of Charles M. Blow (real name, no gimmicks) who basically spoke on how young people no longer date and just have sex. [...]
