Natural Black Women and why We Love Them
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. There was electricity in the crisp night air, but that anxious feeling more likely had something to do with it being my very first time attending an actual nightclub. Until this night,…

Reflections on WorldStar, Kanye, Bullying and The Game
Is this bullying law detrimental or something empowering for our children moving forward? Is Kanye West opening his eyes finally? Why is World Star so niggerized? Well let’s get it in and rap… 1. College is overrated I know this is a strong stance to take but allow me to explain. How many of us do the right thing? From a very young age, we are told to go to college and get our education. Most of us follow this. But what happens if your parents can’t afford to do so? If you’re not a scholar during high school? If you can’t jump out of a building or throw a…

A Closet Feak: “Should I Hide my Freaknasty from my new Boyfriend?”
I was contacted to guest blog on CupidsPlanner.com. One of their readers (a young lady) wanted a little ‘advice’. I was asked to give a male’s point of view in response to her letter, and I happily obliged. She wrote: “I am in a new relationship, should I hold back in bed for fear of being judged as a freak? I really enjoy sex and I have the feeling that I might be more experienced than my current boyfriend. I really like him, so I want our first time to be magical. I would not want to mess it up by doing too much or giving him the wrong impression. I like…

Is There a Problem with Black Men in Hollywood?
I was watching the above episode of Oprah Winfrey some time ago (yes I know she has been off air for a minute now) and she had Dave Chapelle on as a guest in which he had some very insightful commentary.

Improve Your Co-Parenting Relationship with These Common Sense Tips
Several weeks ago Cortonio and I published, “Single Parents: Is it Better to Have Children outside of Marriage?” where for the first time, we collaborated giving our respective takes on the topic. There were some great comments left by several of our readers who decided to weigh in with their thoughts. One reader in particular ‘Aly’ left a comment that stuck out for me and is also the motivation behind today’s post. Here is an excerpt of what she had to say: “Instead of trying to convince people with a bunch of scary statistics that marriage is the best option for a happy, well-adjusted child, it’s time to shift the…
