Sextra: ‘She Has No Walls!’ (Article)

Yo Bossip I gotta situation. Been seeing this girl for almost 3 months now and she told me from the door she wasn’t trying to get down until she got to know me. She’s a pretty girl and she’s down to earth and gotta good head on her shoulders so I was cool with that. A couple days ago I finally get the chance to be with her and I was crushed ’cause baby girl don’t have no walls. I couldn’t feel nothing…she has no walls!!! What I want to know is there something she could do about that or can it be fixed??? She doesn’t even have kids yet so what’s really good? I like this girl and even if I don’t end up with her, she need to do something for the next cat. You feel me?


Ok . . . my two cents. Honestly, after reading this, my first thought was: Does she really have "no walls"? Is she really the problem or is he the problem??? The columnist offers a few suggestions to help with the "situation". She could do Kegel exercises, use some "tightening" creams or better yet, have vaginal rejunvenuation surgery. WTF! I am thinking he's a little on the small side which made it seem like she didn't have "no walls". I'm just saying . . .

The "Head Rush"

This summary is not available. Please click here to view the post.

If I Could

If I could take away all of your pain and make you whole again
Would you give me the chance to be more than just a friend

If I could prove to you that my feelings are deep and true
Would you let me spoil, pamper and appreciate you

If I could look into your eyes and see the secrets of your soul
Would you trust that those secrets would remain untold

If I could go back in time and change all of the bad things in your past
Would you tear down that wall and remove that mask

If I could love you like you have never been loved before
Would you open your heart to me like an open door

If I could promise to always be there and catch you when you fall
Would you give me the opportunity to give you my all

If I could do anything in the world to help your light shine
Would you be willing to forever be mine

Question Of The Day: Are You Wifey Material???

Saw this articles on Bossip.com. Intersting . . . True or not true?

Most women today would consider themselves wifey material, but the only problem is… They’re S-I-N-G-L-E!!! Studies have shown that black men like exploring other options therefore leaving single black women that only want to date single black men… Up Sh*t Creek!!! So, maybe the question isn’t are you wifey material, the question probably should be what is a man looking for when he’s trying to find wifey!!!

5 Things Men Look for in a Wifey

1. Assess her personality. This means her personal characteristics, emotions, style and expressions. Her perspective on the world around her, combined with her level of self-esteem, can speak volumes about the type of life partner and future parent she will be.

2. Know how attracted you are to her. Physical and sexual attraction can mean different things to different people. To some, romance and intimacy are key, while others prefer more active and kinky activities to really make them feel attracted to their partner. It’s important that your attraction and chemistry are mutual, and sustainable for years to come as a married couple.

3. Consider her level of intelligence. Finding a mate mutually matched near your level of intelligence is important to compatibility and having meaningful conversations as a couple. How she observes the world, either casually or aggressively, her level of education, sense of humor, skills, hobbies and conversation style are all important elements of this assessment.

4. Determine how she handles money. Money matters affect everyone, and finances are a key factor in the success of a marriage. Pay attention to spending style, lifestyle, professional ambitions and financial goals when determining your compatibility when it comes to spending and saving.

5. Know her values and compare them with yours. Spiritual values don’t necessarily mean affiliation with a religion but rather a general belief in a reason and purpose for being here. Other values to consider include those involved with family, stability, purpose, religion, optimism, honesty and integrity.

These 5 things are not much for any woman to do, but lets be honest, there are some women who are delusional enough to think they are assets, when they usually turn out to be major liabilities and the same thing goes for men. A woman shouldn’t look at a man’s wallet and say “He’s the one for me,” because money can’t hold you at night.

So… ARE YOU REALLY WIFEY MATERIAL or DO YOU HAVE SOME WORK TO DO???

What Makes Good Sex (Essence Style)

Recently, I read another blogger’s post entitled “What Makes Good Sex”. Single Black Man in NoVA: Shawn's Perspective: What Makes Great Sex? ......." It was written from a guy’s perspective and I found it to be very informative and interesting. So interesting that it motivated me to think about what makes good sex to me. I know that everyone is different so what makes good sex to me may not make good sex to another person. Anywho here is my list.

1. There has to be a connection there. Some type of chemistry the makes you physically attracted to the person.

2. The setting is very important. Candles, scents and music are a very nice touch.

3. Excellent foreplay. This should actually have been happening long before you even make it to the bedroom. Sexy text messages or notes. Maybe a little phone sex. The set up to what’s to happen later.

4. The guy needs to be confident in his game. Bringing it like he is sure of his self and knows he can put it down. There is nothing worst than a timid man in the bedroom.

5. Unhibited. Being open minded and willing to try new things and positions.

6. The main goal should be to satisfy your partner.

7. Good communication. Being able to say what you want, what you like, don’t like, etc.

8. Toys and movies are good enhancers.Some men have a problem with toys. What is that about?

I could name a few more but I think I have covered the major stuff. After comparing my list to his list, I realize that they are a lot alike. Hmmmmmm.

My Journey

My eyes have seen things so awful I can’t describe or explain
My ears have heard the screams of those crying out in pain
My mouth has called out His name when I have been in the storm
My heart has been broken but yet is still caring and warm

I have been humbled by some of the hard knocks of life
I have been fighting for those people others call lowlife
I have been down to the valley and lived among the poor
I have been awaken in the middle of the night by strangers pounding on my door

I have been following my calling of being a servant for the Man above
I have been out in the streets mentoring, spreading His love
I have been willing to give up my worldly possessions to help someone in need
I have been blessed to be able to perform these wonderful deeds

My eyes have seen Him work many miracles every day
My ears have heard the peoples' words as they kneel and pray
My mouth has called on Him time and time again
My heart has been touched by those I’m proud to have as friends

Beautiful Black Queen

We are adored by all men and envied by women who want to be like us
We know hope, faith and trust in each other and our families is a must
We trust in God to guide and protect us from harm that comes our way
So to stay strong and focused, we pray and we pray and we pray

We are a very emotional, sexual and sensual kind of creature
Wide hips and gorgeous full lips are our best feature
We are naturally blessed with the things many people pay big money for
These traits keep our men wanting us and coming back for more

We are the heart and soul of our family, the glue that holds it together
We are caring and always giving our all to everything whether
It’s being a mother, wife or friend while holding down a successful career
Tackling each task with honor like a soldier who has no fear

They say we are sometimes too sassy and independent for our own good
So some brothers look for love elsewhere when they know they should
Be loving, building and creating with us a life like a dream
But eventually they come back because no one can replace their beautiful black queen

Internet Love

I’m late so I’m rushing. Hurrying. Trying to get there on time

Going to meet this mysterious man I’ve been chatting with online

I usually don’t do the internet thing but I decided to throw caution to the wind

If we don’t hit it off, I may at least have a new friend

I took extra time to get ready because it’s imperative that I look my best

While in the car driving, I’m thinking, wondering if he will pass my test

You know the test when you confirm all the things he said are true

To make sure he’s real, sincere and has not been lying to you

I’m excited yet a little nervous because I don’t know what’s waiting for me

Will he be everything that I imagine and want him to be

As I arrive at the meeting spot, my heart starts to pound

I stand there for a minute just looking around

Looking for the man who has captured my attention from many miles away

I can’t decide if I should make a run for it or sit down and stay

As I am searching, I turn to see this gorgeous hunk of man

Walking towards me with a rose in his hand, it's a part of our plan

At that moment, I smile and began to thank God above

For sending me someone that I hope to one day love


My True Essence

Trip

I want to take a trip to a special exotic place far away
A place where the food is wonderful and the music makes me sway
To the mellow sounds of the jazz band doing their thing
Sounds so good to me makes me wish I could sing

The island is unbelievable, a mini paradise offering only the best
Of entertainment, luxury, fun and even some much needed rest
The view is so breathtaking it deserves to be on the cover of a magazine
By far, one of the most incredible sites I have ever seen

At the beginning of the day, the sun rises and shines so bright
Yet the moon’s glow on the water can only be seen at night
The ocean is like magic, clear and crystal blue
If you listen carefully, you can hear the waves singing to you

I want to take a walk on the beach with my sandals in my hand
Striding slowly and barefoot on the hot moist sand
Taking deep breaths, enjoying the clean and freshness of the air
Loving the feel of the gentle breeze blowing through my hair

At night, I want to sit on the deck with my wrap and a fruity drink
Allow myself to just sit still, calm my nerves and think
Pull out my favorite journal and good writing pen
Put into words the things I’ve done and places I’ve been

I can’t wait to take my trip, get away and be me
Forget my cares for just a little while and be free
