What Men Desire: A Woman’s Guide to Being a Good Catch

My grandmother always says to me, “A man should know within 6 months if he wants to marry you. If he doesn’t ask you by the first year, leave him because he is waiting for something better to come along“.

From an adult males perspective,…

2 Reasons why You Should Avoid ‘Break Up Sex’
During my leisure time, which is seldom I might add, I was reading an article in a magazine on break up sex. And coincidentally a day or two later, I overheard some women on the transit talking about it. One of the women involved in the conversation seemed emotionally confused because she engaged in this with her ex, and at the same time, thought that there was a chance of them getting back together because of it. Maybe there was an ‘I love you’ thrown in, an ‘oh baby’ here, an ‘oh baby‘ there; who knows. Anyway, it may be the best sex you’ve ever experienced, and maybe you do…

Once again, welcome guest blogger K. Ferdinand.] Mind Games: You Say You Gonna FCUK But You Really Wanna Cuddle About a week ago I received a phone call (non business hours) from a beautiful woman I know who was asking me to come over. She was talking all this jazz about what she wanted me to do to her in the bed and how she wanted to put me in her mouth, etc. So you can only imagine the internal excitement that filled my mind as I was elated by the mere fact that I was going to get it crackin’ with a ‘Bad joint’ (beautiful woman).

Should a Man’s Past Drive a Woman Away?
In my recent post “Should A Woman’s Salty Past Be A Deal Breaker?” I touched on some skeletons that women may have in their shoe closets and whether or not they (the skeletons) should play peek a boo; and if so, should a man leave or continue to pursue something with the woman. So I’ll be doing the same with the not so fairer sex, and I’ll incorporate the same rating system with different vernacular although I won’t rate them. I’ll leave that up to YOU the readers.
