So what exactly is with all of the men out their actively looking for a woman to take care of them!



This is like the third guy that I have talked to who has mentioned that he wouldn't mind if I went to work and he would stay at home and take care of the kids (mind you...we don't have kids!!).



Seriously!?! Whatever happen to men being providers. I understand that some woman make more money, but still at least make an effort. Don't just start off…

If you have a hectic schedule, one of the best ways to treat yourself is to give yourself a quick beauty pick me up during the day! You may say: “Café Belle Beauty Barista – that’s a cute idea, but you really don’t know my schedule. It is insane! Where would I ever find the time?” My response to you? You can…

Acanthosis Nigricans- a skin disorder that results in velvety, light-brown-to-black markings that occur

in areas including the neck, armpits, groin, and under the breasts

For many years, I had this disease and had no clue that

it existed; one day at school  (I was

about 12 at the time) this guy in my class comes up to me and makes a comment

about my neck to the melody of the then popular song “It’s going down” by Young

"Slavery had a disastrous impact on African-American families, yet sadly a child born into slavery in 1860 was more likely to be raised by his mother and father in a two-parent household than was an African-American baby born after the election of the USA's first African-American President,"

My past couple of day were spent at East Carolina University for orientation and right now I honestly can't wait to move in and become a real pirate.  In some of the early informative sessions I learned that I was one of approx. 4,000 freshmen at university that will have about 27,000 student including undergrad, graduate, professional and online students; also that I am in a program that requires a second application into the junior and senior years that usually has about 450 applicants…

With the rise of interest among women who are interested in better ways to take care of their hair, pre-pooing has arisen as a great way to increase the health and beauty of our tresses. It really isn’t anything new – it has just become really popular. It is a pre-shampoo treatment where an oil or light…

How many times have you received your paycheck on one day, and 3 days later wondered where did all of your money go?  Or you may be one of those people who live by a budget, but for some reason as you’re sticking to that budget you realize that there are some things that you keep missing to add to your…

I believe it is possible, but there are a few things that need to take place in order for this to happen. I know what the bible says, wait until you get married to have sex; I don’t think this is a good idea in today’s society. There are too many temptations in society today to wait until you get married to find out that you and your partner aren’t sexually compatible, and yes sex is a huge part of a man being able to stay with one woman. It’s not the only factor, but I am a major…

a woman who truly loves, respects and cares about her man will talk important things over with him before she does anything, which goes for men too. Whether she’s changing her hairstyle, changing careers, buying a car or deciding to have an abortion, although those are things that primarily affect her.The ideology that she doesn’t need to have an OPEN discussion with her man [FYI: Informing someone you are going to do something is NOT an OPEN discussion] means that she is so overly-obsessed…

I know its more convenient but, just because we have come so far in technolgy with automatic car locks and automatic sliding doors, doesn't meen that we should stop being gentleman. Walk your lazy ass around to her side and open her door lol..., let her walk through the automatic sliding doors first lol.. Let her walk on the interior of the side walk becuase it's further away from the street. I know in the case of an accident i would want to take the hit, rather then the women i love. Our…
