Ladies, Do You (Or Would You) Snoop On Your Man?

Over the weekend, I came across an article on Punch Magazine that quoted Toke Makinwa as having allegedly said that women should snoop on their men because men are wicked. I don't know if she actually said this, and if she did, I don't know when: before or after everyone and their mama found out about her husband's cheating. I can't even decide which would be better because there does not seem to be a lesser evil here. First of all, I have to disclose that I am not a fan or follower of Toke. Read More

Courtship Is Actually For Courting

Whatever name you decide to call it - courtship, dating, relationship, chilling, hanging out, whatever - it is a period when you're supposed to spend time with your "romantically-affiliated partner" and get to know what makes him/her tick. Or not tick. You're supposed to get to know each other, fight and make up, discuss your dreams, discover things you love and hate about them, compare them to what you want and ultimately need in a partner, and ask yourself truly if they could possibly be the Read More

What Steve Harvey Said About Men

The only time I used to really follow Steve Harvey was when he had that show, The Steve Harvey Show in which he played the character of Steve Hightower and was a teacher and Vice Principal in Booker T.

Since then, I've know what he's been up to, but I've not made any conscious effort to find out. His day time talk show is about to start its third season, which is great Read More

So You Think Your Past Doesn’t Matter?

Next to “men will be men,” the next best hilarious lie I have heard about relationships is that “the past does not matter.” In the words of Joe Biden, that’s a bunch of malarkey. On another day, I will tell you more about the men-will-be-men lie. For now, let us talk about the past that does not matter. More times than I can count, I have heard people say – when talking about relationships – that the past does not matter. What a person did in his/her past should not matter in his/her present Read More

I Admire Strong Women Like Demetria Lucas

I remember when there was a lot of heavy promotion for Bravo TV's new reality series, Blood, Sweat, & Heels. I didn't pay it too much mind, but then, when I discovered that one of the stars of the show - Demetria Lucas - is a blogger, I became determined to watch it at least once. I'm usually instantly interested in things that relate to bloggers. So I finally watched the show on Sunday night. I didn't go to bed till about 3am because I binge-watched all the episodes on OnDemand (there Read More
