A (straight) man and woman are capable of having a purely platonic relationship. True False View Results Just curious. My friend Daria said/says that I get along better with women because "I'm a listener and a talker." I tend to think it's because most guys are jerks. But the jury is still out on me: [...]

"The Nod" is something men seem to understand. "The Nod" is the way we recognize each other, say "hello" without goofily waving our hands in the air like a schoolgirl, and it demonstrates many things, including respect, an understanding, acknowledgment, etc. Women don't seem to understand the nod, or for whatever reason, choose not to [...]

Though this message is for the gay/lesbian folks out there, the core message applies to everyone: I will admit I've not cared for the "special treatment" gays, lesbians, African Americans, etc. seem to want to get while declaring that they want "no special treatment." We have an NAACP, but an NAAWP would cause a shitstorm [...]

As we obtain knowledge as a culture, are we seeing a decrease or an increase in the number of people who are "religious"? Are the two related? Or is a change in the "religiousness" of the world unrelated to an increase in knowledge?

I'm not in advertising, and I'm not going to pretend to understand whether this type of ploy works on women, but it seems to me that these ads are directed at men a lot more than they're directed at women. What's your take? More in the extended entry…

The only thing I have to say about Tiger Woods. His reputation as a golfer: perhaps the best ever. His reputation as a human being: trashed. I'm curious to see how I'll feel when I see him playing golf in two months. I've rooted for the guy in the past because I enjoy good golf [...]

Every once in awhile, someone advances the opinion that since the PGA Tour has no gender rules, the LPGA Tour should ditch their "women only" rule, too. I never understood how someone could advance such a theory, but those who believe it tend to be bizarrely adamant that they're right. How can you possibly explain [...]

Today on ESPN's Outside the Lines, Bob Ley headed the discussion surrounding (on Mother's Day, of course) of pregnant female college athletes on athletic scholarship. The question: should they forfeit their scholarship? Several issues surfaced in support of allowing the student athletes to retain their scholarship, not the least of which was Title 9, which [...]

It is back! Hooray!

It seems that Rookie of the Year Ben Roethlisberger is dating Hottie of the LPGA Tour, Natalie Gulbis. Gulbis, like Anna Kournikova, is hot, blonde, young, and winless. Me? I'm much more of a Laura Diaz kinda guy.

Turns out my Survivor Electoral Math was right: Chris won 5-2. I wasn't dead on with the votes, but my tallies were right. There are usually some flips, and the flip in this case - Ami moving over to vote against the one with the penis - was more than made up for when LeAnn [...]

Okay, I have two things to say about tonight's Survivor. One: Ding dong, the witch is dead, the witch is dead, the witch is dead. Two: If Chris were smart, he'd immediately drop the baggage that is Twila and Scout and form an alliance to go to the final three with Eliza and Julie. But [...]

Jamie is looking for some comments on her porn post, and is taking a list of them to class on Monday (I think), so if you've got something to say, drop by. I'll write more about it later… more than the little I posted in a comment.

Women's lib took a gigantic step forward today: the Playmate of the Year: has naturally brown hair didn't bleach it blonde has natural breasts! Sadly, the "has an IQ over 100" may have been left off the list once again, but three out of four ain't bad! P.S. She's smokin'. And I wouldn't have to [...]

My typical response to the whole "dating" thing: I haven't got time. Today I had at least enough time to take a break from editing the book to take some dating quizzes. They were an… interesting distraction. End result: I'm a smart guy who's got high standards but prefers intelligent, 25-year-old brunettes. Duh.
