The Creepiest OkCupid Message I’ve Ever Received

Creepy OkCupid message
When my last relationship ended, I decided to jump on the bandwagon and sign up for OkCupid. It sounded pretty harmless, and at the very least, I thought it might boost my bruised ego.

Online Dating And Mental Masturbation

Woman sits on computer online dating, creating mental masturbation
Online dating sites can be great places to meet your ideal man, but there’s a danger lurking around the corner, ready to pounce on the unsuspecting female mind. What is this online dating monster to stay alert for? It’s mental masturbation! “What the hell are you talking about David Wygant?” You exclaim. Mental masturbation is what happens when you fall in love with a man online, before you actually meet him. You spot his profile. He looks so good. You keep going back to look at his profile. Every time you read it, you start to want him more. In your mind, he’s the guy that’s going to ride off with you into the sunset. In your mind, he’s going to get down on one knee and ask you to marry him. You love how he looks, what he says about himself, and how he describes his perfect relationship. He sounds like the most amazing guy you’ve ever met. Read more

AskJustin: Strip clubs and getting back with the ex

Ask Justin Bird
If a guy is really into strip clubs does that make him a dog?
Some men at strip clubs feel like 6-year-old boys at Disneyland on the night before Christmas. This is completely okay as we are men remember? One word to keep in mind: Moderation! The first question I want to ask is how often? If it’s any more frequent than five-ish times a year, then I would be concerned and raise a red flag. If a man goes to a strip club for special occasions (bachelor parties or birthdays), then it is completely normal. Is the man married, single, taken? A married man should limit his attendance to special occasions, while a single man gets a free pass. Read more

Toms in Love, Now Shut the F#ck Up.

Tom
A few weeks ago I was spinning at the news that Olympic Diver, Tom Daley not only had (unofficially) come out, but was also in love. In an instant, Tom was becoming a major role model for many young fans around the world dealing with their own sexuality. But naturally the press did not want to focus on that part of the story and instead they said “screw that” and decided to focus on the possibility that he is dating Oscar winning screenwriter, Dustin Lance Black.
