The Subtle Ways a Man Shows he Adores You
“Her” – What is she? Who is she? My partner in crime Mr. SoBo wrote a masterful piece on “Her – The One Your Parents Never Told you About” and how she can be that man’s kryptonite. I’m sure plenty ladies sit and wonder to themselves: Was I ever Her? Will I ever be Her? Why haven’t I truly been someone’s Her? Some women know what it’s like and some don’t. Whether or not it’s deservedly so isn’t really for me to say. Now, not every man will do all these things mentioned below nor will it mean you are any less special to him if he doesn’t do these things. It truly depends…

Treat Her Like a Lady – But What if She Isn’t?
Here’s an exchange between two people that I witnessed a few days ago: Person 1: “Yo shut the fcuk up. Get up outta my face!” Person 2: “What ni**a? Fcuk you! Eh yo suck my di*k lame a$$ ni**a”! Was this an exchange between: A) Two men B) A man and a woman If you guessed ‘B’ you’re right. The harsh proposition for oral sex was actually done by the woman in the argument. Yes, readers she told this brother to suck her di*k. And I think it’s safe to say that we’ve all been exposed one way or another to similar types of exchanges. You ever see the woman…

The One – What Your Parents Never Told you About Her | Poem
They say I am strong and unyielding with an emotional fortitude thats shielding, yet Her spirit weakens me. Armed with clarity and a firm grasp of reality, I navigate this unpredictable sea I call life, yet I constantly find myself lost in Her eyes. With every glance into the softly beckoning and disarmingly feminine dreamy windows of Her soul, she ensnares my spirit and catapults me into a dreamlike state of my own. Visions – of a future filled with memories, heartfelt “I Do’s” celebrated in ceremonies serenaded with songs of the innocence we long shed, but now welcome back into our lives as a testament of our love – consume me as I drift further into Her gaze.…

How School May be Killing Your Child’s Motivation to Succeed
Students are taking notes in math class to prepare for a test in two days. Katrina walks into class and nonchalantly places herself in her seat, takes out her pencil and notebook and begins to write. But she has something other than note taking in mind as you would soon find out. “Katrina grab your notebook and take down these notes; they will be vital for our test on Thursday”, says her teacher. Katrina has already repeated the 9th grade and although she is capable enough she has a laissez-faire attitude towards her work. “Hold on”, she replies. After about five minutes she continues to write and the teacher looks…

What Men Desire: A Woman’s Guide to Being a Good Catch
I’ve come to realize that I have had way too many conversations about relationships with women. Between those real life conversations and the bevy of side-eye inducing social media commentary, one thing is for certain – every one of these lovely women considers herself a great catch. Successful. Intelligent. Attractive. Independent and exceptional in bed. According to them, it doesn’t get any better than that. Curiously enough however, apparently it does…according to those men who didn’t answer their relationship call. Is it possible all those men got it wrong? So what’s the problem? Clearly the sexes view life through different lenses. And that’s okay ladies. So although you may feel you have it ‘going on’, it…

Yes She Cheated – How do you Handle Her Infidelity?
It’s been a few weeks now and things seem different. The affection has waned. You’re not seeing each other as much (even if you live together there’s not much quality time), and the sex has not only curtailed but it doesn’t feel the same. You ask and she says things like, “I’m okay just going through some things” or “I just haven’t been feeling myself lately”. After all, we all have our days right? We go through our personal ruts so nothing to see here …correct? You’ve tried talking about it but she continues to insist nothing is wrong. As days go by things continue as they were and you’re not feeling…

Yes It’s Fake, But Memories Aren’t: Why Pro Wrestling Is The Sh*t!
Mom: “Go to bed guys, he’s not winning”, Us: “No mom please….he’s gonna win, it’s Hulk Hogan, he always wins”. Mom: “No, it’s now time for bed. He’s not going to win. I’m taping it, you guys can watch it tomorrow”. After doing this a few more times my brother and I finally won out and stayed up to finish watching this epic match, Hulk Hogan vs Andre the Giant. It was Sunday night March 29, 1987 Wrestlemania 3. Upon Hogan winning, my brother and I went to bed happy and the next day it was all my classmates talked about. I don’t remember what particular event caught me as a fan…

What Qualities Makes a Woman Extremely Attractive?
Before we begin lets take a look at this list: Tyra Banks, Halle Berry, Sanaa Lathan, Nia Long, Vivica Fox, Toni Braxton, Gabrielle Union, Jada Pinkett just to name a few of the women over the years in their prime (and some still today) that have made men googly-eyed and downright fixated. And men, I have been guilty of it too – having been so into the women of style and little substance. If you think about it who doesn’t want an apple or onion booty; voluptuous breasts, hips, legs, and even feet? I love me some nice feet – don’t judge me. This has always been the choice du’…

6 Ways Showing Humanity can Increase Your Life’s Value
I was on the transit several months ago, I want to say it was around the holidays. I had my Ipod listening to one of my playlists which was R&B. The song “Little Things” by India Arie came on (I forgot I put it on there). And while she is extremely talented and I loved the beat and rhythmic nuances of the song, the lyrics hit me. And it got me thinking, what are some of the little things in life we can do for each other, whether you’re in a relationship or not? Greet someone, anyone This goes a long way believe it or not. It’s an everyday occurrence…

A Look at the Struggles of a Young Black Man | Poetry
Everyday I wake up and feel so stressed Because I know today is going to be another huge mess Perhaps I should end it all and put myself to rest Perhaps an overdoes of pills or maybe a bullet to the chest I pray to God everyday hoping and waiting to be blessed I used to have a nice ride but that’s been repossessed On a daily basis my hair resembles a bird’s nest I only have one pair of shoes, I must confess I have lots of bills outstanding, but no money to pay them I can’t buy jewelry or fancy cars, all I can do is say them…
