Who Do You Fantasize About? (A Long Time Cumming)
WORDS BY RONNIE6676 He said he’d been thinking about me since the 7th grade. Since we were both in our late 20s now, that’s a long time to be… Thinking… Wanting… Fantasizing… Except, this wasn’t a fantasy. I was sitting in Raymond’s living room, reminiscing and laughing about the good ol’ days, and I found [...]
Reality Check: Not All Men Are On the DL
I’m a creature of habit so I guess Tuesdays are quickly become MadameNoire day. If you’re looking for your daily dose of NWSO insight feel to check me out over there. Today, I tackle the issue of why so many women are quick to claim so many men are on the DL. Perhaps it’s the [...]
Can You Stand Depressing People? (The Eeyore Complex)
Not sure how many of you grew up watching Winnie the Pooh but there was this one character named Eeyore. He was a perpetually depressed donkey, whose tail kept falling off. Nothing seemed to go right for him—ever. Life for Eeyore was just one tragedy after another. He called his home “Eeyore’s Gloomy Place” and [...]
Which Birth Control Has Failed You? (The Price of Sex)
It’s funny, last week someone on the MadameNoire message board named “Wow” left an interesting comment on my now infamous “baby mama” post.

Do You Remember Your First Love? (No One Comes Close)
I know today’s Wet Wednesdays, but I’m not really in a Wet Wednesdays kinda mood. (You can still CLICK HERE to buy your Wet Wednesdays tees though). In the wake of recent events, my mind has been elsewhere and I was reminded of this song called “My Furst Luv” that I wrote back in my [...]
Real Men Like Real Hair – Why Weaves Don’t Work
Thanx to everyone for the well wishes to my mom and family. We spoke last night after her surgery and everything went well. Depending on when you read this I should be by her side. Now, I know I was supposed to take the day off, but I wanted to hip y’all to my latest [...]
What If Your Mom Died? (Lost Without You)
It’s the last message anyone ever wants to get: “Mommy is in the ER. She was having chest pains…” But that was the text I received from my sister last Thursday. My brother had called a short while earlier, but I wasn’t able to answer because I was in a meeting. After reading that message, [...]
Being a Good Catch Isn’t Enough (Do You Have Red Flags?)
Dear NWSO, I’m a 36-year-old “good” Black woman who has been dating a 40-year-old “good” Black man since the beginning of the year. We share the same interest, values, thoughts (we have often said the very thing the other was thinking at that moment) etc—we are compatible in every way. He and I had an [...]
