Guest Post: I’m a Man-Eater Not a Prey Mantis

SOMETHING SHE DATED

I want to clear something up. Be a little more precise. About Man-Eaters. About who I am.  About chicks just like me.  Because there’s this notion. That Man-Eaters. Are Man Haters. (A notion proliferated by young buckettes who don’t yet know themselves.) And it’s really just the opposite. Grown Up Man-Eaters. Are Man Lovers. We love ‘em. Can hardly contain ourselves. Gotta have ‘em.

MIKE MASTERS

Hi. I’m Mike from the relationship website MiketheMasterDater.com. Recently Skye asked me to write about female double standards in relationships. As I understand it, this particular topic was not one that other guy bloggers were very excited to take off her hands. Why? Because you women are scary!! See proof Read More

SOMETHING SHE DATED

*Disclaimer. There are clingy chicks in the world. There are clingy boys in the world. This is about the rest of us.  Who get a bad rep.

I’m a planner. Some people think that’s a flaw. I think it’s brilliant. And FYI: Planning and spontaneity are not mutually exclusive. My passport is always up to date. At a moment’s notice I’m ready for a summer road trip. Camping? Sure!  ouse-party in Kelowna tonight? Fuck yeah…I’ll get gas, you get snacks and we can be there in five hours! I’m basically up for anything at anytime. Party at the moon tower and I’m rounding up money, kegs (for you guys of course, I’ll drink diet coke) and Mathew McConaughey. But essentially I’m looking for fun fun fun all the time time time.

Why I’ll Never Be a (Real) Cougar…

SKYE BLUE

I have a confession. A few weeks ago due to some intense lust/like I was feeling I broke my number one dating rule – no dating younger men. Silly as it may seem to some of you this rule has served me well for much of my dating life. In any case, against my better judgement I decided to date this 30 year old guy, who I’m going to call The Kid (you’ll see why in a minute), who I’d been crushing on for over a year. Read More

The idea that women are too emotional is not an uncommon one. I’m sure that all of you have heard it and that you know how the story goes. Essentially anything that happens to a woman makes her cry simply because she is female (aka a super emotional being that tears up at the drop of a hat).

Guest Post: Emotional, Irrational, Reactionary Women and the Emotional, Irrational, Reactionary Men Who Love Them

Women. Too emotional? Irrational? Reactionary?

I can only speak from my own personal experience. And that experience tells me that the answer is a resounding, emphatic, delivered-while-jumping-up-and-down-and-waving-my-arms “Yes!”

There may be one or two exceptions in my chequered past. But for the most part, they’re all the same. Read More

“If the world were a logical place, men would ride side saddle” – Rita Mae Brown

Are women are always overly emotional and illogical? All women are never always anything. If you take nothing else away from this website I would hope that you may have noticed we don’t hold much faith in sweeping generalisations.

Even With Two Heads, l Don’t Understand Women

I get mad when you walk away (don’t walk away)
So I tell you leave, when I mean stay

–‘Sweetest Thing’ by Lauryn Hill

My childhood friend Mikey always said that women were just flat out irrational and illogical. Too dependent on their emotions he’d say. Can’t trust ‘em. They should never be CEO’s or run countries. Running a household was as much responsibility as they should have. That was Mikey’s stance and he wasn’t budging. To be fair, Mikey had women do and say the craziest shit in order to get with or stay with him. Or to push his buttons.
