(Wikipedia) - The act of sending sexually explicit messages or photographs, primarily between mobile phones.
(Urban Dictionary) - the act of text messaging someone in the hopes of having a sexual encounter with them later; initially casual, transitioning into highly suggestive and even sexually explicit.
Prince William County (Maryland) police have arrested a football coach at Stonewall Jackson High School, saying he sent lewd messages to a 16-year-old female student. Police said 42-year-old William Dignan sent numerous sexual messages to the girl by phone and by e-mail.
Every day it seems I hear one crazy story after another about someone "sexting" another person. You have high school coaches "sexting" teenage girls. NFL football players "sexting" female team employees. You have male police officers "sexting" on duty.
It is one thing if the person on the receiving end of the "sexting" welcomes it or even asks for it. However, it is another thing if men (there are probably a few women out there too guilty of this) are crossing the lines of decency daily by sending pictures of their "pipes" to unsuspecting females (and in some extreme cases teenage girls). It is just sick any way you slice it.
If this were done between two consenting adults I have no problem with it. The issue, and a legal one for that matter, is when someone is sending unsolicited sexually explicit photos of themselves to someone else. It is harassment and he/she shouldn't get away with it.
Joking. Sort of. But she deserves a severe punishment for what you'll read below.
28-year-old pop princess, Nadja Banaissa (shown), a member of a German pop group called "No Angels" said in court in Germany that she was “sorry” for not telling her sexual partners that she was HIV positive, although she was aware of her status. Apparently, she had unprotected sex with several men.
According to the charge sheet, she had unprotected sex on five occasions between 2000 and 2004 with three men and did not tell them she was infected. At least one of the three men, has been infected with HIV supposedly from Banaissa, but it hasn't been determined if he contracted it from her.
HIV and AIDS are no laughing matter and should be treated as such.
There should be a federal law about anyone KNOWINGLY having HIV and AIDS and going around having unprotected sex with people. I say starting with 15 years to life sentence for the what should be a federal crime in the U.S. I believe a few states have individual laws regarding this but I think this is a national matter.
I know critics are going to say well it takes two people to have sex and if the other person who doesn't have HIV or AIDS didn't insist on using protection then that's playing Russian Roulette with your life...along with several other side arguments you can claim.
But someone going around having unprotected sex with the virus shouldn't be dismissed either. Once someone is found guilty of doing this...there should be a HIV/AIDS registry set up similar to a sex-offender registry. I sure the ACLU would probably fight this....amongst other civil rights groups...but this is a matter of national security and the fight against HIV and AIDS.
Question from Dark & Lovely: Is there ever a time when a man should be expected to marry a woman?
Brother's Manlaw response: There is no official time table on it. Personally, I think after 2 years of dating, a man should know if he wants to marry a woman. Does that mean he will marry her before or after 2 years? No. But that's where the woman needs to stand up for herself and ask what does she want. If she's put in at least 2 good years and is in the safe child bearing age and wants kids and he isn't showing any signs of movement...she might want to consider dating other people. Men can be the biggest bullshitters on the planet and we'll have a woman on the hook for years or even decades if she lets us.
Let me start of by saying this to you all: I love you and have so much respect for you all. I really do. The burdens you all carry are so great. You are definitely appreciated.
However, I have not been feeling the love from some of you. Lately, there seems to be a small, yet powerful and growing, movement of Black women who seem to hate/dislike or are disappointed in Black men. I have read so many articles,blogs and news reports about Black women saying Black men ain't sh*t/wont settle etc, Black men only like White women, Black men are less successful than Black women. It saddens me to see some of you say this. I feel the need to clarify and inform since many of these statements and feeling are inaccurate.
First, I will tackle the whole dating thing. I am hearing a lot from some Black women that "Men ain't sh*t" and all other variants of that. I feel that many of these women need to look in the mirror. One, quit trying to make someone into what you want instead of accepting them for who they are. Too many times we try to mold someone. It is not going to happen. Men give clear signals when they are not happy or don't want to commit. Pay attention, assess, then move on.. Secondly, that man might be a good man, just not the one for you. Incompatibility does not make someone a bad person, just a bad partner. Thirdly, many times we don't take the time to reflect on the damage we done. Many of the women who spew negativity need to take stock of the damage they have done; do some critical self-reflection. Take responsibility for the role you have play in the demise of your relationship.
The second issue I need to tackle is interracial dating. Black men are not "betraying" their race or Black women by dating outside their race. Black men do not "hate" Black women because they date outside their race. Let me tell you why some Black men date outside their race: numbers. Dating only Black women limits the pool. Expanding your pool to include women of other races expands the potential pool of mates. Quit reading your magazines, chatting with your girlfriends. They have the game all messed up. Black men love Black women. We really do. Dating outside the race does not mean we don't love you. We will still love and support Black women in any endeavors even if we date outside the race. Are some brothers self-loathers? Yes, but they are so few. It is not an epidemic of Black men who hate Black women. That is soooooooo wrong. So when you see a Black dude down the street with a woman of another color, don't hate. Be happy that he hopefully found someone and is able to create a happy and healthy relationship. Also, it takes more energy to be upset at that man than it is to find the right one for you.
Overall, I just want you all to know that I am worried. The movement of haters among Black women is growing. And if we hope to improve the condition of Black America, I need Black women to support the brothers. I need brothers to do the same.
When did it become proper for a woman to ask a guy she doesn't know to buy her a drink?
Or worst...when did it become proper for a woman to demand a guy she doesn't know to buy her a drink?
Or even worst than both of those...when did it become proper for a woman you don't know to ask or demand you buy her and her girlfriend(s) drinks?
Are we to blame T-Pain for this because of his popular (but when you read the lyrics word for word...extremely silly) song "Buy You A Drink?
Or have women in general lost their damn minds?
I don't know where to point the blame. But there is one thing I know for certain. This epidemic isn't cute and it is something that needs to stop. If you as a woman are that darn thirsty, BUY YOURSELF A DRINK.
I was having this discussion with a male friend about our recent vacations and it happened to him while he was on vacation.
To paraphrase his response.
He said if he just met a woman at a club/bar/lounge or entertainment establishment and he's only been talking to a woman for five minutes, she shouldn't ask him to buy her a drink because he's going to say hell no. It doesn't matter how hot a woman looks. If he wants to buy her a drink, he'll offer and pay. No need to ask and damn sure no need to demand.
And if a woman is bold enough to ask/demand, his response is "I was just about to ask you (as a woman) to buy me a drink." That as he tells me, always ends the conversation for good. lol. I need to borrow that at some point in the future.
I couldn't agree with his policy more. But I have a variation to it.
Now, I'm a fairly generous person when it comes to being social. My number one reason for being in a club/bar/lounge or entertainment venue is to dance. I'm not a drinker. I don't profile. I'm there to break out a sweat on the dance floor. If a woman that I don't know dances with me for a while and I'm enjoying her company, it is my good nature to offer to buy her a drink.
Generally speaking, you have to engage me in something meaningful (a dance or a great conversation on something not superficial) to get a drink out of me, if I don't know you. Which begs me to ask another question, when did women lose the art of socializing? Just looking cute and sitting/standing around ISN'T enough and whoever told you it was should be forced to listen to Ashanti sing live for 24 hours straight.
So, ladies spread the word and make sure your girlfriends "don't ask and darn sure don't tell" any man to buy her a drink. Because more than likely if you do that, you'll probably end up with a dude that thinks he owns you after one drink.
Question from Essence Cutie: Dear Man Law, I went through plenty of your blogs, and I didn't find this subject. Maybe I missed it. However, here it is. A lot of my friends are practicing celibacy in their relationships and they are happier than ever. I have strong feeling about it and it's worth considering. What are your views on this subject? How do your male friends feel about it. When is a good time to let him know, the beginning of the relationship or after a couple of dates?
Brother's Manlaw Response: Celibacy is not for every man or woman for that matter (AND IT CERTAINLY ISN'T FOR ME) and if I can speak for the majority of my male friends it isn't for them either. I might not want to have sex with you the first time I meet you but if there is a physical attraction and you have the personality to match the physical, I'm going to want to have sex with you at some point.
And if sex isn't on the table, it might be a deal breaker for me. I don't put a time frame on having sex with a woman and I can't stand women that have these silly 30, 60 or 90-day rules (yeah they read that silly chapter in Steve Harvey's book "Act Like A Lady: Think Like A Man") because you can't put a time frame on sex. It never works. You have to go with your instincts to know when the moment is right or not. If you continue to make bad decisions on who to have sex with, then maybe you need to stop having sex altogether. But that's another blog topic for another day.
Now, if you are a woman and you believe in celibacy and it is a deal breaker for you then I think it is fair topic for discussion on Date 3 or after. Now, one more important thing on the celibacy issue. If you are going to claim you are celibate...you must STICK TO WHAT YOU SAY and you can't tease a man or go anywhere close to crossing that line. Because if you do that...eventually you will cross that line and you'll have nobody to blame but yourself.
Question from reader: I'm in a relationship with a "good" man but the sex is horrible! Should I continue to fake it? Am I at fault for my partner being a terrible lover? Is it true you are only as good as your lover?" Question via Anonymous.
Brother's Manlaw Response:Part 1 of answer: No. You shouldn't continue to fake it. The first and most important reason is that you are not getting satisfied and I'm afraid that is probably going to lead you to cheat if you haven't already. The second reason is he doesn't know that he isn't pleasing you and that isn't good for him either. I highly recommend you have a heart to heart with him and don't begin the conversation with the dreaded phrase "WE NEED TO TALK" because the majority of men shutdown emotionally when a woman says that. Right after the next time you have dinner you take him by the hand and lead him into the bedroom and you tell him...to just listen and watch you as you please yourself. Remember men are visual creatures. After a few minutes of this...you take his hands and guide them to your sweet spots. You whisper in his ear and tell him how much it turns you on that the man you care about caresses these sweet spots each time. Suggestion and Part 2 of answer: After one tutorial session where you lay your cards on the table so to speak, you watch to see what he does the next time you make love. If he really cares about you, he was paying attention and took mental notes of what you did and tries to repeat them the next time. If he forgets something just take his hand and guide them to the spot and if you think he needs vocal support...whisper it in his ear. Now, if he doesn't make any improvements over the course of the next 2-4 times you make love and you don't think he'll ever improve or he seems not to care about your feelings...you've got a big decision to make. Sex is usually a big part of a successful relationship to some people and if you are someone that believes that...you'll have to pick one or the other. If you think you are going to cheat, I would suggest you break up with him before you do cheat and search for someone that can satisfy you in the bedroom as well as satisfy you outside of it. Part 3 of the answer: You are not at fault for your partner being a terrible lover because some people are just selfish lovers, or they don't pay attention to what they are doing and how someone responds to them in bed. No, it isn't true that you are only as good as your lover.
I found this article on the MSNBC.com website and found it interesting. I think it is accurate in some workplaces. I have asked several male and female friends who have worked in a variety of offices and they thought it was true too. I think women need to really think carefully about how they dress.
She snores. During the night, she bellows out a loud-pitch, glass-shattering snore that makes it impossible for you to sleep for one second. SHE'S NOT THE ONE.
She admits she takes bad care of her car: Women treat just about all their material possessions with care. So, if you find a woman that claims she doesn't take care of a car she depends on everyday. SHE'S NOT THE ONE
She's late for everything. It doesn't matter the event (movies, dinner, concert, banquet, picking you up from the train station, etc..) she's going to be late and fashionably late at that. When she says 10 minutes, she really means 20. SHE'S NOT THE ONE.
She calls one of her male friends "her husband." If this doesn't have red flag written all over it...I don't know what else would. If you haven't hit it yet and she's throwing nicknames around like "my husband" to describe one of her male "friends," you are probably never going to hit it and should move on. She's keeping you on the bench for a reason. SHE'S NOT THE ONE.
She takes forever to comply with a simple request from you. If a woman cares about you, then she will not take forever to return a phone call, a text message or an e-mail with a request from you...whether it be urgent or not. SHE'S NOT THE ONE.
She doesn't offer you a drink or any food when you come to visit. You're visiting her place for the first time and she doesn't offer to feed you or give you something to drink. Meanwhile, she gets herself something to drink (a Heineken for that matter) and sits back on the couch like nothing is wrong with that picture. Now, the only exception to this scenario is if the visit leads to sex. SHE'S NOT THE ONE.
The problem is...(as the video below will explain) there are too many black single women and not enough black single men. Steve Harvey gives his take in the video...and my thoughts are below the video.
1) This is going to be painful to hear. I don't believe everyone is meant to be married. There are some people based on their personality and their lifestyle that make them hard to be attached to someone.
2) This is also going to be painful to hear. Some people (men and women) have standards that are ridiculous. For example, if you are a woman that's like 5-3...demanding any dude you are interested in has to be 6-feet or over is ridiculous. Now, that was kind of an extreme example but there are people who have "this mythical" check list that need to take a lot of stuff on it...OFF!
3) Every black man and woman has to do their share of introducing a single black friend of the same sex to a single black friend of the opposite sex. No one is saying going into the matchmaking business (although that might be another solution) but don't pass up an opportunity to help a friend out...who you know deserves to be with someone that will love and appreciate them.
You're single (and don't want to be) and you're looking for a woman. I go out often in New Jersey and New York City and sometimes in Philadelphia and here is what I've observed. There are too many of our beautiful women who are single and in most cases don't want to be.
It might be our fault. It might even be her fault. It could be both of our faults.
Something has to give.
Now, I can't promise you that she'll be single or even a woman that you would want to date...that's your homework assignment...should you choose to accept it.
I'll just point you in the right direction. I've listed these as they came into my brain and not in order of importance. You're welcome to agree or disagree with me.
1) Weddings
2) Broadway plays and musicals.
3) Concerts of any adult male singer.
4) Happy Hours/Afterwork events
5) Home Depot/Lowes (this was strongly suggested by some single female homeowners in the Philly but I'm not officially buying it. lol)
6) Library
7) Spoken Word events
8) Fundraisers for charities
9) Museums
10) Any department store that has a good female shoe section.
11) Bookstores
12) Community service events
12) Wine tastings
13) Political events
14) Birthday parties of your single female friends
You're single (and don't want to be). Don't shake your head...you know I'm talking the truth. Stop listening to your girlfriends and for once listen to a man that can tell you where to find men.
Now, I can't promise you that he'll be single or even a man that you want to date...that's your homework assignment...should you choose to accept it.
I'll just point you in the right direction. I listed these as they came into my brain and not in order of importance.
1) Happy Hours/After work events. My professional male friends and I have made the transition to attending more happy hours and after work events than staying out late.The reason being...most of us have to go to work in the morning but we still want to socialize with the professional crowd. The drinks are cheap. The music is usually good. People tend to loosen up when alcohol is involved. Also, you'll more than likely catch him in his Sunday best...since he just got off of work, which theses days is a very good thing. Wear something cute...put on some of that good perfume (don't over do it)...sit near the bar or a television...and make sure to smile (I CAN'T STRESS THIS ENOUGH) at any guy you think is cute.
2) Library Every woman should love an intelligent man and especially one that reads a lot or has an extensive vocabulary. A man that knows his way around the library should be a man that has the key to your heart. Women tend to read...a lot more...than men and it seems to me that women dominate every book club that I hear about. Wouldn't it be nice to find a man that reads as much as you do? And wouldn't it be nice to have a stimulating conversation with a man about the hottest books on the bestseller lists? I think it is time to update your library card and find a good seat near the entrance.
3) Ski Trips A lot of men like sports. A lot of men go on ski trips. Now, before anyone jumps all over me...I know a lot of people don't actually ski on ski trips. It is about socializing and what better way to interact with men than in front of a fireplace on a cold winter day/night. Most ski trips usually involve a bus ride to and from the ski location and that's plenty of time to talk. If you see a cutie, sit near him on the bus ride and strike up a conversation. Don't wait too long though because women tend to outnumber guys on ski trips...so you want to get ahead of the competition...if you know what I mean.
4) Spoken Word Events I don't know a woman that doesn't love a man who is a spoken word artist or a man that appreciates listening to good spoken word. It is such a relaxing activity and add in a glass of wine/or your favorite beverage and it is a can't miss type of evening. You're probably not going to find a lot of men at a spoken word event...so pay attention to any guy that does show up. If he has the courage to get on stage or pick up the microphone...then you should probably bump him up on your priority list. If he does perform, you'll get a chance to learn how his mind works (the clean and probably the dirty version). Women always want to know what men are thinking and he'll probably make that task easy for you. Wear something cute...put on some of that good perfume (don't over do it)...sit near the front or near the entrance...and if you are a spoken word artist yourself...get on stage and wet his appetite.
5) Sports Bars This should be obvious.If you don't actually see a sporting event live, the next best thing is to go to a sports bar. And guess what you'll find there...Men...Men and more Men. Now, if you absolutely hate sports...then this isn't a place you should try. If you can at least tolerate sports (don't need to be an expert or anything) this might be a gold mine. Find a sports bar that has the NFL ticket in the Fall and visit on a Sunday afternoon or catch the Sunday Night Football game. If you can hang late on a Monday night...go for the Monday Night Football game. Later in the season, the NFL plays games on Thursday nights. Of course, there are the NFL playoffs and those games are always on Saturday evenings and Sunday afternoons. And of course there is always the Super Bowl. Someone you know has to be throwing a Super Bowl party. Don't neglect the NCAA men's basketball tournament in March or the NBA playoffs in May and June or the MLB playoffs in late September and the month of October.
6) Super Bowl Parties Someone you know has to be throwing a Super Bowl party. It is the most watched sporting event in the world and guess what a lot of men will be watching the game and hopefully at the party that you are going to. Sit near the TV or near the alcohol table (men like to drink too) so you'll get a bird's eye-view of which guys might not be paying attention to every detail in the game and instead checking you out. At halftime, move closer to your target and strike up a conversation about a big play in the first half. At the end of the game, you both should have already exchanged information.
7) Weddings I strongly suggest that women attend the weddings of single male friends because every man that is getting married wants his male friends to witness it. You might get stuck at the singles table at the wedding reception but you can always walk around and talk to anyone that is interesting. When the music comes on...get on the dance floor and show what you got. But of course, keep it classy and don't get drunk and start falling all over yourself. Keep it classy. Of course, if he has a wedding ring on...look but DON'T TOUCH. You don't want another black woman trying to cut you. lol.
Birthday parties of your single male friends For pretty much the same reason listed above for weddings, birthday parties of single male friends is one of the highest concentration of places you'll find other single men. If there is a guy that you have your eye on...ask the host (your male friend) what's the deal with him. He might even put in a good word for you to his boy and let the matchmaking begin.
Other places you are likely to bump into some men via suggestions from female friends who have found mates by meeting them at the following places.
Home Depot/Lowes (this was strongly suggested by some single female homeowners that I know but I'm not officially buying it. lol)
So, William Taylor (left) really messed up. And his wife made him pay by wearing this silly sign admitting his adultery. ------------------------------------
Manlaw: Is this the new punishment for adultery? I hope not because no one is winning here.
William is "suffering" temporary embarrassment by wearing this silly sign but did he really learn his lesson and will he never cheat on his wife again?
We don't know that for sure.
His wife doesn't win either because the world now knows her husband stepped out on her and her marriage. I hope there are no kids in this family because they've been exposed to unnecessary shame not to mention family and friends that know these two idiots.
So, Mrs. Taylor if you really want to make a statement next time, do it quietly and file for divorce or better yet...stop with the gimmicks and make your cheating husband sleep on the couch with no sex for a month...that's if you plan to forgive him. If not, go with option No. 1 and keep the rest of the world out of your marriage.
That quote above was said by esteemed US Senator John Ensign. He used this in comparing his affair to Bill Clinton when asked if he should resign.
This is the most wack excuse ever. I am sure every cheating man in America has considered using that excuse. However, I am sure Ensign is the only guy to ever actually use it. If I was to ever cheat, I am going to use a better line. Here are some good examples:
"Babe, it was an accident. I kind of slipped, fell, and landed in the va-jay-jay"
" I was drunk"
" My heart ain't got nothing to do with my penis. He says that you are still his favorite (Thanks Kanye)"
All of these are better than "my affair wasn't legally wrong".
I can't even finish the phrase from Method Man talking about the $55,000 Kelis was awarded in child support and spousal support from Nas recently. I saw that 75 percent of that money is for spousal support and the other 25 percent is for child support.
You can search on Youtube for the NC-17 rated clip as Method Man and Redman voice their opinion on child support and spousal support.
Removing the "derogatory lines" out of straight frustration. I agree 1 million percent with the underlying message that Method Man and Redman are saying.
Long term spousal support is wrong. My thoughts: If you were making an income, then spousal support should be a one-time payment equal to your total earnings from the previous tax year. If you were not making an income, then spousal support should be a one-time payment equaled to what the richer party spent on the spouse the previous tax year.
College fund as part of child support. My thoughts: I don't know if this is standard but it probably should be. As part of the child support package, I would like to see men have to dedicate money to a college fund THAT THE MOTHER CAN'T TOUCH and only the child can reclaim on their 18th birthday. If the child should die before their 18th birthday, the mother should then get the money or have the money split between the mother and father.
I never thought anyone could give the Shawn Kemp's (seven kids by six women) or the Travis Henry's (11 kids by 10 women) a run for their money but I've got a name for you.
Desmond Hatchet
He's 29 and get this (insert drum roll music)...he's got 21 kids by 11 women. Mr. Hatchet you sir are a winner. Of course, I'm being facetious.
Yes. He's got Kemp beat by 2 touchdowns and he's got Henry, a football player for that matter, beat by a touchdown and a field goal. And here's the kicker: he's got a minimum wage job (which wasn't identified in the clip). So, if you are a resident of the state of Tennessee, you should be angry because you are paying for all those "x" and "y" chromosomes
I understand everyone has civil rights and the government shouldn't be telling people how many kids they can have BUT...Mr. Hatchet's case is utterly ridiculous. According to the clip, the state of Tennessee can only take half of his wages but considering he's on minimum wage that can't be a lot. And when you start dividing that 21 ways...we are probably talking a few dollars and even a fewer cents.
Obviously, Hatchet deserves every ounce of blame thrown his way but wait a minute, the women in this case are not angels and obviously they are not too bright either. It is not like he's worth millions and we can clearly see you are just after a piece of his money. That I can begrudgingly accept...I'm going to still call you trifling but we at least know you had a plan.
A friend had the best Facebook status to describe how I feel about the women: "Clearly Mr. "I'm 29 and I have 20-21 kids" is pitiful. But what's the adjective for baby momma #3-#11? Ignorance is bliss and it will also get you $1.89 in child support."
I laughed when I read the status message but clearly this isn't funny and baby momma No. 3 to No. 11 have some explaining to do. I can only imagine what they said to their parents. "Hey....mom and dad. I've got a surprise for you. I'm having a baby with Desmond. Yeah. He's got...um....I'm not sure how many kids he's got really."
Well, baby momma "No. 3 to No. 11" you should checked how many kids he had. You also should have done some research (based on the state you live in) on the child support laws. Most importantly, you should have made him wear a condom. Because clearly, you are not ready to be a mother if you are depending on a man with a minimum wage job and an exponential amount of illegitimate kids to support you. I thought people took STDs, STIs, HIV and AIDS seriously but we've found one extreme example of adults who don't get it.
Let's be real. This guy's game can't be that good that he convinced 11 women to let him go raw. It may be true but I just can't buy it. I also can't believe that there were nine women that just wanted to add onto this family tree. That may be true too but I just can't buy it.
Manlaw and womanlaw: This will probably never happen (because of civil rights laws) but the state of Tennessee needs to make an example of Mr. Hatchet and his bevy of women. The state shouldn't support any more kids that he has. Period. Not one penny. Also, the state should change the laws to go after 75 percent of his check or change the law that says after a certain amount of kids the percentage the state takes goes up. I'm not sure how you punish the women but I think if you start educating young women about the child support laws that might be a start. The basic premise should be this: the more kids a man has the less in child support you are going to get. So, it probably isn't wise to be baby momma No. 3 to No. 11. Let me backtrack again, maybe the state of Tennessee needs to get tough and start pushing vasectomies and tubal ligations. At least, these careless individuals can screw up their own lives and not bring innocent children into the world.Maybe even create a baby daddy or baby momma registry.
I want to say thank you to the 165 people that tuned into the live chat on Easter Sunday. I'm not sure if all the chatters were women but I suspect a very good portion were that night. Thank you for the support.
I hope you enjoyed the comments from my man Keith and I about the topics that Steve Harvey mentioned in his book. Someone asked when are we going to do a chat like this again and the honest answer is, I don't know.
If someone wants our thoughts (the male perspective...that is) on a specific topic about dating e-mail us at brothersmanlaw@yahoo.com and I'll see if I can't turn it into a blog entry or another chat.
Once again thanks for making the 4 hour and 47 minute chat (I was only planning on 2 hours max...lol) a total success.
Please come back on Sunday, April 12 at 7 p.m. as I'll host an online discussion about Steve Harvey's book "Act Like a Lady: Think Like a Man."
I agreed with about 65 percent of what Steve Harvey said. The book is hilarious and even if you think Steve Harvey is full of himself...the book is worth a look. On Sunday evening, I'm going to give the non-celebrity man's point-of-view of what Steve Havey was saying.
Police in Connecticut say a woman attempting to reconcile with her husband handcuffed herself to him as he slept and then bit him on his torso and arms.
Police say 37-year-old Helen Sun told them she wanted to have a conversation with husband Robert Drawbough without him leaving. Police say she changed the locks on their bedroom and handcuffed herself to Drawbough while he was sleeping Monday.
