In another week, she The post How to survi ..read more

I don’t need to tell you how bad your situation sucks. Your marriage didn’t work out. I don’t know why yours didn’t last. There are only a hundred different reasons why. Maybe one of you cheated. Maybe you lost your attraction to your wife because she got fat and then didn’t want to have sex because she didn’t feel good about herself (one of my personal favorites). Could’ve been she lost her attraction to you because of your excessive gaming or love for sports, and lack of working.

As our American society continues to change, it is becoming harder and harder to define what a man is. Being a guy who writes about manly things on this men’s website, I’m not really sure how I feel about that. As the male and female gender definitions are becoming more and more alike, some may no longer agree that “keeping your mouth shut” is a manly description. I do feel that it still is, for how much longer though, no one knows. So for now, I will continue to write about why men should consider keeping their mouths shut. “LOOSE The post How to be a man by keeping your mouth shut appeared ..read more
