Giving Black Men Space
When my friend, Lornett Vestal, asked me to write a guest blog for the Evolving Folks Project, I initially scratched my head, wondering what I’d write about. Topics of dating, finding joy during trying times, and ways to live an aligned life all danced in my mind. While I was considering this, I started reading…

What is an Attractive Man?
Men aren’t typically thought of as the “fairer sex,” but we, too, want to be appreciated. Across cultures, physical attractiveness often contributes to one’s perceived worth and respect. Pretty privilege is real, and I can say I never experienced it. I know, as a straight male, there’s a billion-dollar cosmetic industry geared towards women and…

It was also to challenge the ideas of toxic masculinity, men’s rights, and incel culture that’s run amok over the last few years.…

Why are men and boys so violent? On September 4, 2024, there was a tragic mass shooting at Apalachee High School near Winder, Georgia, United States. Four individuals lost their lives, including two students and two teachers, while nine others sustained injuries. The authorities arrested and charged Colt Gray, a 14-year-old suspect, with four counts of…

Letter from A Black Republican II
Dear Evolving Man Project, My name is Cornelius Oliver Octavius Needham. I’m back! It’s been four long and horrible years under the tyranny of the hippie-liberal Democrats and that literal brain dead doofus Joe Biden. Now, the commie who runs this joke of a website, Lornett Vestal, is still spewing his poison to the world.…

Lonely Boy II
Single Awareness Day? Valentine’s Day 2024 is upon us. It’s a day where if you’re single, society really makes you feel like a loser. Hence, some folks call V-Day the single awareness day. A 2022 Pew Research Center study found that 63% of men aged 18-29 reported being single, compared to 34% of women in the same age group. There appears…
