Yesterday, xoJane published a piece that ended up causing an interesting discussion among myself and some friends. It was titled “My Liberal Parents Bragged About Me Being Queer While I Was Still Ashamed of It” — and subtitled “What do you do when your liberal parents start treating your sexual orientation as cultural capital before you […]
A new season of “Scandal” is here, but unfortunately Olivia did not come to her senses during the time away. She’s picking up where she left off with Fitz and it’s as gross as you’d expect. This is extra upsetting because with the exception of last season’s finale, it was seeming like even if they […]
It’s a rare man who knows how to deal with an emotional woman. I know that “feelings” scare a lot of dudes and in their fear and perfectly admirable desire to “fix things,” they become inert, inept, or insensitive. I’ll never forget the first time my most serious boyfriend saw me cry. He didn’t say […]
Ah, men. So endearing. So easily confused. We know we women aren’t the easiest people in the world to figure out, and it’s all too easy for a guy to open his mouth and say something that’s an instant dealbreaker. Whether the subject is sex, weight, or love, here are a few lines that should send […]

Tough going out there in the dating pool this week: my OKStupid date bailed on me mere hours before game time (rude!), and speed-dating managed to sell out before I could secure a spot. Undeterred, I’m planning to attend this week – and purchase a ticket farther in advance! Meanwhile, I ended up spending a surprising amount […]
I am currently seeing this really great girl. She’s smart, sweet and really fun to be around. We agree on a lot of things. We both hate the death penalty, love pizza and enjoy hanging out—sometimes illegally—on rooftops overlooking New York City. There is one thing, however, that we just can’t see eye-to-eye on. It’s […]
You know what? I’m exhausted. After the past few weeks of aggressive Tindering, aggressive OKStupiding, aggressive first-dating with no second dates, I’ve been having trouble mustering any enthusiasm for yet another evening of probing questions with a relative stranger. I’ve progressed from Tinder to text with a few promising specimens, but the schedule gods have […]
