Dating Tips for the Recession
When I posted a few of my friends’ dating deal breakers a week and a half ago, a common issue was women who don’t at least offer to leave the tip. While many female readers focused on the money, the guys’ focus was more about the idea of unselfishness. I’ve said it before and I’ll [...]
Why Do Black Women Think Every Man is Gay?
I was reading my homegirl …Says the Single Girl’s blog the other day (CLICK HERE to check her out) and she had a post called “Your Man is Gay! (Video)” that featured an episode of some show called The DL Chronicles. Based on the title alone you can infer that the show revolves around the [...]

Do Condoms Really Make Sex Safer?
Shout out to one of my longtime commenters Caribeza for this one. She’s been M.I.A. on the comments for a while (where you been?) but popped up the other day and shared her thoughts on my post, “Where Are All the Good Men & Women?” In her response, Caribeza left a link to a very [...]
