F*#\ the double standards.


When a female is angry, frustrated or annoyed with you, in their minds, this is a free pass to say or do anything they please, regardless of how rude or disrespectful. This may include any or all of the follow: hang up the phone, walk away from the table in the middle of a restaurant, raise their voice at you, hit you, spit in your face or confide in another man. What many of these woman fail to realize is the possibility that you did not intend to offend or upset them and even more that you may not be aware that you have done so.
At the very least, I think woman (anyone really, but lets focus on woman right now), should speak their mind in a healthy open way, letting their friend, lover, partner, husband or concubine know their feelings or opinion.
Arresting someone who may be guilty of nothing or of many crimes is unjust especially when they are unaware of what crime they have committed and more so if the laws are unknown. Imagine being arrested, detained, castrated for not putting down the toilet seat, being too nice to your girlfriend’s friend, making a joke that she didn’t find funny, smiling to the cashier, mortgage broker, dental hygienist or any female person in the world, without the expressed written consent of your girlfriend or wife, ridiculous right?
I thought so.
Ladies I ask you to check your egos at the door. Stop thinking you can get away with murder because of the power you possess between your legs. While you’re a woman, I’m a man, this does not negate the fact that in order for us to coexist in a civil, loving, progressive way, we need to treat and respect each other as equals and communication is key!

Martin Luther King Jr Day.

Today let us each take a moment to reflect on "the dream" that Martin Luther King Jr. had for the world. Keep in mind that this is a dream, hope and desire that he had for every person, not just members of his own race or community.

R.I.P Teddy Pendergrass

R.I.P: Teddy Pendergrass (1950 - 2010)




Yesterday a legend was lost when Teddy Pendergrass passed away at the age of 59 from colon cancer. He was the first black male singer to record five consecutive multiplatinum albums in the US. Unlike the songs of many of today's male R&B artists, Pendergrass' music bordered on eroticism without explicit lyrics or coarse language — just through the raw emotion in his voice. As a sex symbol of the 1970s music scene, Teddy Pendergrass gained unparalleled admiration from female fans for his suggestive songs and his women-only concerts at which teddy bears were passed out to audience members. Some of his greatest hits included "Close the Door", "Love TKO", "Turn Off the Lights" and "Come on Over to My Place."

New Years Resolutions: Why Can't We Keep Them?

New Year, new attitude, new you....right? Wrong! Every time a new year comes around, we all make resolutions to improve our well being. And the line that follows all too many after they've set their standard for the year, "This year I'm going to stick to it." Resolutions should always be measurable and attainable like any other goal we set in place for ourselves. So, if you really want to follow through with your resolution for 2010, here are some pointers.

Revisit. Is your resolution too vague. If it is, rethink your goal and be more precise about the outcomes that you want and how they can be approached.

Rephrase. Reword your resolution so that you feel confident enough that it can be attained. Trying to do too much too soon will hinder you in the long run.

Refocus. This is your committment to yourself so make it as fun and exciting as you want or need it to be.

Request Help. Now this is a big one. Don't be afraid to ask a friend or family member for help if you need an extra push.
