I was terrified when I went to my first bachelor party! I think I had been dancing for maybe three months, when I went on my first party, with the head girl at the club, whom we called 'Mama'.

Energy Manifestation in the Age of COVID
Lately I've been thinking a lot about energy, especially the energy that is created from a large group of people, all zoned in on the same thing, whether it's a packed concert, a basketball game or a protest.

In The Doghouse Again? Is It Emotional Abuse?
Let's talk about emotional abuse. Emotional abuse is a BITCH. And unfortunately, it's a sneaky ass bitch as well.

No, she doesn’t want to sleep with you.
This is something that has been weighing on my mind and heart, and I know it's going on, and it makes me feel sick and sad.

5 Tips For Newbie Strippers
Be wary of the girls who immediately want to become BFFs with you. They probably have an ulterior motive that involves either a) robbing you blind b) getting you hooked on the same shit they're hooked on or c) both.
