Editor’s Note: Don’t be a reactionary troll from my title, read the article. According to a lot of men, the idea of a suitcase carrying woman in a pantsuit does not vibe well with the happy housewife image that is the conservative ideal. This accounts to many of the issues women with strong careers have with finding a peer (in business) to date and marry. Men aren’t necessarily looking for a “lesser” woman to marry but they are looking for a woman who fits into the mold of what is shown as the ideal. Donald Draper looks for Betty Draper not a Peggy Olson aka the career driven go-hard that’s pretty but focused on the prize. Sure this doesn’t account for every male who shies away from single professional women but it describes a healthy chunk of us that run for the hills when we know a woman is an earner. Men who seek a… [Read more]

One thing that people tend to neglect to do is to look in the mirror initially before making themselves the de facto financial expert in the relationship. In a lot of situations people who seemingly are doing well are just wearing a fancy mask to cover an ugly liability sheet. The person who doesn’t care about or ignores finances goes into relationships with these individuals that look good on the outside financially and then allows that person to take care of their finances also. Then a few years down the line when they’re both knee-deep in debt with no hope in sight he/she wonders at what went wrong with this seemingly smart individual. There are many snakes out there who hide their finances very well and show the outside world a picture of success and growth but in reality are no better off than someone working at a fast food restaurant. They may have some… [Read more]

Complacency and closed-mindedness is the quickest way to becoming a boring person even worse a boring boyfriend/husband. If you want to make your lady really cling on to you along with being the envy of her girlfriends you have to become interesting. Being interesting means the willingness to include her into the things that you would normally assume she has no interest in. You have to try crazy things with her and you have to have an edge. As you read this you probably question my meaning in these vague tidbits of advice, the main thing is to avoid being Al Bundy – on the couch, watching football predictable and boring. You’re never gonna survive unless you get a little bit crazy While she may get upset at you for putting her in the way of danger, your lover may also f-ck your brains out for going berserk on a guy that disrespected her in… [Read more]

I’m calling a cease fire from my fellow men on these discussions of the successful single woman being lonely, it’s tired, I’m tired, and everyone’s tired. The bodies are piling up on both sides and there is no solutions being taken seriously outside of exploitive media outlets making a buck off the random victimized PhD of the week. Personally the women that I have dated fit the same mold as the ones blogging about being lonely but successful. The resume is solid; they can be sweet but many times exhibit traits or say things that are irrecoverable acts of disrespect to a man. Successful woman, I will tell you that many times it isn’t what you think it is or what your circle of dicks in a glass jar male friends are telling you. A lot of times it is a personality trait that turns off men like me (the successful, educated, single set.). The… [Read more]

A true hustler is born not made, sometimes the hustle is within but it lays dormant, asleep and unseen. It may take a life-changing experience, meeting the right mentor or even education to wake up the hustle, but once it’s awake other hustlers will recognize it. To this reasoning I do not take people seriously that are “pretend hustlers” or “big game talkers”. These guys are everywhere and make up a majority of people you meet at mixers, business meetings and (clears throat) “grown folks night”. Recently it came to my attention that a certain sect of successful women are recruiting these guys for their husbands and then trying to make hustlers out of them. These women have the game backwards, you support the hustle, you don’t invent it! A hustler on the come-up for some real cash flow is normally a busy, focused guy. He thinks all day long about extending his assets in… [Read more]

Men, step up and claim your women. Is it me or do we have a sort of retreat by men as a whole when it comes to the more alpha type women? If we see the assets blooming, the bank account full and her attitude solid, we slink away assuming she’s a bitch with an agenda. I need to know when was it that our balls started shrinking and moving north up into our stomachs. When did it become an unwanted challenge to slay a Dragon, cut down other knights and climb a tower in order to claim a buxom babe as ours. Why are we afraid of a career woman with a little bit of attitude? Doesn’t the reward far outweigh the hassle once the shields have dropped, the thighs have parted and you share in the pleasures of partnership and romance? I know exactly what it is boys, you think she’s going to… [Read more]

Hey ladies, the game has changed. Let me repeat that, the game has changed. While you were being drilled by your unhappily married momma to go get your education, a secure corporate job and a man who has done much more than you to play hunter/gatherer. The game up and changed itself into a six headed hydra that has got you all hustling backwards in this relationship thing. It’s made for some good reading as the new buzzwords of “black, woman, hair, single, anger” in no particular order has brought many a blog instant attention and success due to the reactions that come with it. For the jilted men of the past it has become a relative badge of honor to tell their friends how they dissed a woman, especially if she’s fine or accomplished. Guys who are in their 30s and can account for a heavy paycheck and assets have become the ones with… [Read more]

As I peruse many blogs daily on the internet there seems to be a very popular theme with marriage and why men won’t commit. The argument is largely one-sided as it is mostly women chiming in on it and hardly men. If you were to go on these blogs and take the testimonies and the feedback from their female commenters, you would think that most men are immature, clueless, or just plain stupid. The reason for this is there doesn’t seem to be much self-reflection from these women when it comes to why their 5+ year relationship hasn’t resulted in a proposal from the guy. While an extremely complex situation, what a lot of women don’t understand is that many times there are underlying issues why you as a great girlfriend is not guaranteed to be a potential wife. 1. You’re already a wife without paperwork Many women assume that because a guy is of… [Read more]
