But every now and then I turn that clinical eye inward and think to myself, ‘girl you need to go see someone, you are all messed up in the head’. At the top of this year I decided this would be a year where I work on becoming my best self. Going to therapy was…

Hi readers. It’s your homegirl Ms. K.K. crashing the spot as the featured guest blogger for today. Men, this one is for you so you may want to pay special attention. In your many years of dating the gentler, fairer and I daresay, better sex, you may have come across many instances in which you were sorely befuddled by the consternation of your ‘Boo thang’.

Women are varied and are as unique as fingerprints or snowflakes, and equally intricate and…

How can Blacks Become Responsible for Their own Freedom? The "I" in Black Lives Matter.
I am Queen Sierra and as your featured guest blogger for todays post When 3/5th becomes a man, the nation is at a stand still. This same nation which once held these truths to be “self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness”. The key word I want to focus your attention on here is ‘liberty’. Liberty is defined as the state of being free within society from oppressive restrictions imposed by authority on one’s way of life, behavior, or political views. In the case of blacks in America, it…

Once again, welcome guest blogger K. Ferdinand.] Mind Games: You Say You Gonna FCUK But You Really Wanna Cuddle About a week ago I received a phone call (non business hours) from a beautiful woman I know who was asking me to come over. She was talking all this jazz about what she wanted me to do to her in the bed and how she wanted to put me in her mouth, etc. So you can only imagine the internal excitement that filled my mind as I was elated by the mere fact that I was going to get it crackin’ with a ‘Bad joint’ (beautiful woman). So I tell her…

Love Conundrum: Is Love REALLY Unconditional?
Admin Note: Please welcome guest blogger K. Ferdinand. Enjoy. So I was talking to my father last night and we were discussing each other’s Valentine’s day plans. My father and mother have been divorced ever since I was a baby, so the type of relationship that my father and I have is more of a friendship than of the traditional father and son. Overall, I cherish much of his advice, and seek his wisdom often to get through many situations. He was telling me of his lofty plans. His plan comes down to which one of his women is going to shoot cupids arrow on him, and enjoy his company…
