Real women drink. Some real women drink more than others. But ALL real women drink certain things. Continue reading
Boss: Hey, have you heard back from Joe in Finance?
Enesbit15: Nope, sorry, I’ll call him again.
Wait, why did I just apologize? Continue reading
Today is the day of womanly things, and if there’s one thing we chicks like to talk about, it’s MEN! Amirite, ladies? Since this day that is about us is really all about you menfolk, I have created a handy how-to guide for picking up women. Now, I’m no Mystery, but I do know a thing or two about the ladies, since I am one. Now, you could just walk up and introduce yourself, but that would be way too easy and straightforward for modern dating. Instead, I have created for you a primer on how men can successfully approach women while avoiding the skeeviest moves. Continue reading
Last week we learned about the Eleven Habits of Highly Imposing Men. Well, good for them, standing in the corner smoking their cigarettes and looking all sorts of imposing. I’m here to share with you the Eight Habits Of Highly Intriguing Women. Eight? Yes, eight. Women are far more efficient than men, so we don’t need the extra three habits.
So what is a Highly Intriguing Woman? She is the woman who is both the life of the party, and the lifesaver of the office. She knows what she wants, and she knows how to get it. Something about bacon and frying pans. Well, you get the idea. Let’s get started, shall we? Continue reading
To say that I have never been very feminine is a bit of an understatement. Yeah, I had some Barbies and a lot of stuffed animals, but I also had more dinosaurs, Legos, and basketballs than any other girl I knew. I didn’t have a female best friend until high school; before that I preferred to play basketball, tackle football, wallball, or wrestle 2-on-1 (with me being the one) with the boys on my block. I was always one of the first ones picked for sports teams at recess and PE, and in the fourth grade I was universally recognized as the best wallball player to walk the blacktop. In other words, I was (and am) one of the world’s biggest tomboys. Continue reading
Do you need some ideas for what to watch after Crasstalk’s Day of Womanly Things? Why not start with these documentaries about women and women’s issues? Continue reading
We’ve all heard about people having mind blowing sex, but did you know that it can actually temporarily erase your memory? Continue reading
It’s practically heresy to admit it in critical “cineaste” circles, but this is the truth: I like Romantic Comedies. When done well: There’s romance! There’s comedy! What’s not to like? Continue reading
After thumbing through a quite long and a bit overwrought Atlantic Monthly article titled “All the Single Ladies”, I was struck by some of the juxtaposition the author, Kate Bolick, discusses about the feelings of loneliness she felt in not walking down the aisle with a seemingly perfect man at age 29, and years later, rectifying that decision with an almost feminist war cry to embrace the concept of often maligned spinsterhood, which some would have you believe should only be whispered in dulcet tones and not too close to a Ouija board. This isn’t a test. Women will not fail at life if they marry, and remaining single doesn’t mean there’s a lonely-lady cat sweater with your name on it. Change the rules, if you dare. Continue reading
So, yeah. Among all our cat picture postings and general whinings, occasionally we get our CT (straight) boys whining on about women.
How do we work? Well, I guess it’s not that simple. But, BUT…real women are actually not all that complicated. We’re just like you. Only with vaginas. However, there are a few things we do like…or love…that aren’t too confusing or difficult, and might help you boys along the path to glory. Continue reading
