The Dirty, Stinking (Possibly Rotten) Truth

Manny has a problem.

He likes this girl but there’s one thing that is keeping him from going forward with her…wait for it…her vagina smells.

Manny describes her pre-shower odor as a mean combo of ass and fish. Post shower, Manny was puzzled to find that there was still an order. This time she smelled like “drool.”

“Drool?” [...]

Jump Offs Exist (Even Essence.com Knows This)

I woke up this morning to learn that the internet was in an uproar (well just black women on the internet) over Essence.com’s new men’s blog It’s a Man’s World and its debut post “The Truth about Jump Offs” written by journalist/editor Jozen Cummings.
Jozen is a friend and told me about the post before it [...]

Married People Shouldn’t Give Dating Advice

People who are married kill me when they try to give dating advice.
.
It’s like graduating high school ten years ago and coming back to your alma mater to tell the kids what it was like when you roamed those halls. All the teachers you had either died or retired. They renovated the classrooms. You’re favorite [...]

I’d Cheat On My Husband

No marriage is perfect yet whenever we hear of infidelity we automatically assume that it is the man that is stepping out. It’s almost as if it’s acceptable.

“Oh, he cheated. That dog. Please pass the salt.”

Don’t Marry For Love, Marry For Money

If people marry for love and 50% of them end up divorced perhaps we should start marrying for other reasons. I, for one, am leaning very close to marrying for money.
I recall a cool dude who told me that he wouldn’t mind if a woman was interested in him for his money and all that [...]

Tell Me the Truth, You Just Don’t Want To Be With Me!

Breaking up is hard to do, especially when you are the one trying to the find the words to gently let the other person down.

You’re Single Until You’re Married

Folks ask me all the time, “SG what are you going to do when you start dating someone. Will you still be ’says the single girl’”?
My response: “Yes!”
“But you won’t be single” they say.
“Yes the hell I will be. You are single until you are married.”
Very few people understand what I mean by this. I’ve [...]

Six Words Men Should Never Say to a Woman

There are some words women long to hear from their man. “I love you” tops the list followed in no particular order by “I need you”, “I miss you”, “Will you marry me?” All that is cute but let’s talk about the words women don’t want to hear. Not that the easy ones “I’m Gay”, [...]

Black Cougars are the New White Woman

Ladies, there’s a war going on and we don’t even realize it. Cougars aren’t just white women anymore. More and more older sistas are sharpening their claws and going for men 33 and under. I don’t know about you but that’s stepping into my territory.
Sista Cougars are growing in numbers and the crazy thing about [...]
