The Struggling Feminist Man
And so we find ourselves in a time, as in all of recent time, where we are at war with each other and ourselves. No generation before us has known such division amongst people. It seems, like in most relationships, life was better before we met, before Columbus met the Native Americans and the commencement...

Lets Celebrate …
Waking up 20 minutes before your alarm. That cup of coffee that turned out just right and that smile in the mirror that says ‘I got this’. 6 green robots in a row, the 100 bucks you bust in a jacket you haven’t worn in months and the mall parking ticket you don’t have to...

Man Flu …
Easily mistaken by many women as the common cold, man flu is something much worse. It is a virus engineered by scientists of the most sinister kind to attack the immune systems of men rendering them as fit as a corpse. It’s like almost dying for a few days. And I can already hear the...

Marriage For Who?
Why the hell do you not want to get married? Why is modern society eroding this glorious institution away so blatantly and uncaringly? You are more likely to be invited to three times as many baby showers (pronounced “reasons to drink”) as you are to be invited to bridal showers or bachelor parties (pronounced “reasons...

The Modern Man …
Three letters on this topic: W.O.W! That being said, how about I ans-wer the question at hand. I’m not too certain, who the modern man is, but I can draw some insight. I’m one of two girls, but I have the pleasure of living with two young black men. Along with these young men, I...
