This past Monday, August 6th 2012, Igwe and I headed to Washington D.C for the United Sounds of Africa Tour (concert). As of twenty-four hours before, I was not completely sure that I will make it because Read More

This Is Why Men Fall Asleep After Sex

Why do men fall asleep right after sex, instead of staying up to talk about very interesting stuff ... like the future, like how he feels about you, like how you are the best thing to have happened to him since sliced bread. Well, apparently, there is a biological reason. Turns out that men's brains are designed to switch off after sex.
