Ahhh, I remember it like it was yesterday. I had recently turned 21 and it was time to take full advantage of my adult freedoms; and by adult freedoms I mean live it up after hours on the social scene while indulging in adult beverages (responsibly and irresponsibly) of course. It was an autumn night, a Friday to be exact, and I was heading out with a few of my college compadres to a popular nightclub venue downtown.

Men’s Fashions That Turn Women Off
Fellas/Gents if you will, we’ve all been there. We at one time or another have worn stuff that may have cost us a chance at a female. I’m sure we were even offenders with the fashion police, or we had our own “wanted” posters up. Ladies this is for you. You ever see a dude and say to yourself , “He’s cute, but why is he wearing that?! That brotha can’t dress”.

Hoodrats & Headwraps: Hot Ghetto Mess or Unapologetic Fashionista?
For those who enjoy pointing out the obvious, there will be sweeping generalizations, vacuuming assumptions, mopping presumptions and Swiffering aspersions made throughout this entire post. A dichotomy that is both essential and non-essential to the overall premise. Enjoy with three grains of salt.
