Relationship Strategies,
What Guys Want Manolith, a men’s lifestyle online magazine, recently ran the article 20 Reasons You’re Still Single. I was delighted to learn that there are apparently a significant number of men who want a relationship and need advice. The piece addresses a wide range of typical male weaknesses, including questionable hygiene, douchebaggery and being “too nice.”

Personal Development,
Relationship Strategies Brett and Kate McKay write The Art of Manliness, a successful personal development blog that is tailored to men, but contains many excellent, thoughtful articles that I enjoy. Recently, they wrote about a general condition of restlessness and anxiousness in our society, a sort of general malaise. They define it as feeling like there’s this great [...]

Personal Development I’ve been thinking a lot about Seinfeld lately. In particular, the show where George realizes that his life is terrible in nearly every way. He has an epiphany of sorts — he decides to do the opposite. Every time he thinks he knows what he should do, he does a 180 and does the opposite [...]

We all need guilty pleasures. I’ve gotten totally addicted to the weekly Sex Diary at New York Magazine. That’s OK, right? Not too sketchy or anything, right? Right. Well, who cares what you think.

Now that Zagat’s has announced new Dating (and Dumping) Guides for New York and LA, I’m bracing myself for some nasty stories.
