Random Thoughts on Black Men: Pride Edition
It’s time to return to “Random Thoughts on Black Men.” In previous articles, I questioned why some brothas feared dogs, why some brothas wore socks with sandals, and some brothas felt the need to Hotep or black men’s colorism towards darker-skinned black women.

Let’s Talk About Sex
Sex Ed is a Joke It’s been a couple of decades since I was a teenager, but I remember watching the movie Mean Girls when I was on a date in my early 20s. It was the scene where the gym teacher told a group of students, “If you have the sex, you’ll get pregnant […]

Three Thoughts on Fatherhood
I’ll admit it; I’m not a father. At least, no one has told me that I have sired any offspring with them. I’m just saying I had some wild nights in my Navy days. What am I? I am a man, an uncle, a son, a brother, and a husband. Dad isn’t one of the titles […]

The “Alpha Male” Myth
There is no such thing as an Alpha. The Alpha Male has been the idealized male in mainstream culture for decades. Dominate, powerful, imposing, etc., but the idea of the alpha male is a myth.
