9 Signs Your Man is a D.L.B. (Down Low Brotha)
A while back I was engaged in conversation (aren’t I always) with the brothers and we were talking about playing R&B in the car with your friends in tow. Would you? or Wouldn’t you? Although I did a piece on this sometime back, my mind went to the left and I was thinking what songs would you ABSOLUTELY not play while hanging with your bros.

My brother and I have a mutual friend and sometimes we share unconventional…

Guy Code: 10 Unspoken Rules Men Should Follow
Last week I wrote the post, “10 Rules Women Should Generally Follow” which were my cheeky additions to the unwritten ‘Woman Code’. So of course it’s only fair that I put the spotlight on the men and our unwritten ‘Man Code’ with this post. Here goes. As men go through life sometimes we do things around our friends or other guys that elicits funny looks. Sometimes we don’t realize what we do because it’s either part of our upbringing, or its totally innocent and there’s nothing meant by it.

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. As the world turns, and as we meander through the days of our lives, we observe relationships in action every single day.

In fact, I’m inclined to believe that the majority of our observations in life are done passively. In other words, we don’t notice sh*t, but we really do…
