Is Your Manhood in Check? Things That Make a Man Look Weak
Men in general since the beginning of time have been instilled with the the gene to be the provider, protector, and that stubborn “I can do it without any help” attitude – basically when you know you’re in a bind and your woman tries to help you and you shut her down. Men also have been injected with that medicine called ‘male pride’. *Disclaimer now some men can be no good pieces of crap and could care less about anyone but themselves*. All in all, even if it means putting their foot in their mouths, or having ‘egg on their face’, as long as a man feels he stuck to…

Dear Hip Hop, We Hardly Knew Ye
“Damn….those were the days”. “I remember this song…wow”. These are some of the things people might say when they listen to certain songs that send them back into that nostalgic era of positive rap music and good vibes. Back when there was little misogynistic lyrics of women, no mentions of “1-8-7’s”, etc. You know,…you felt good and somewhat up lifted after hearing the song. Some songs you found yourself actually dancing to (Go ahead break out the Roger Rabbit one time…I’ll wait). And I don’t mean bob your head, but actually DANCE. Even some of the gangsta rappers developed some sense for a few minutes to do some decent songs…

A few months ago, I wrote “Doin’ The Most: 11 Examples of Lame Sh*t People Do” and not long after that I wrote “8 Very Lame and Tacky Things People Do (Pt 2)”. I didn’t think I’d do a part 3 for fear of being redundant, but some of the things I’ve seen recently lets me know I have to do a 3rd installment. This time I won’t to the “lame-o-meter”. I’ll leave that up to you the readers. So without any further ado… 1. TREAT FAMILY/CLOSE FRIENDS AS FB SATUS UPDATES Okay let me explain. Let’s say your birthday comes along, right – and instead of your relative or…

Lord of the Rings: Phil Jackson a Legend or Lucky S.O.B.?
“This year there’s no maybe” was Phil Jackson’s answer heading into the 2010-2011 season when asked if it was his last year ever since The LA Lakers single-handedly embarrassed him on his way out of the NBA with their uninspired play and unprofessional conduct on the court (Lamar Odom and Andrew Bynum both being ejected). They suffered a 122-86 game 4 evisceration from the Dallas Mavericks (Dallas swept the best of 7 series 4-0). We all thought he was done with coaching. After all, he’s 5th all time in wins with 1155, and has won 12 NBA titles, 11 of them as a coach. He has guided the careers…

Is She Worth ‘Putting a Ring on It’?
What type of woman are you (dating)? Women and Sports have become a way of life in today’s society. So in this post I’m going to put them both in a sort of ‘sports perspective’ since we all participate in it in some way shape or form. As you get more into the sport you enjoy watching, you will see that teams have franchise players, superstars, stars, mid-level players, and bench players. I did a previous article “All Gold Everything: What Type Of Man Are You (Dating)?” I’m going to do the same with the ladies, but I’ll spin it a little. So gentlemen, what TYPE of woman do you deal…

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. As far as the upbringing though, I would think this especially pertains to men who were raised by women as they tend…
