The why, the who and the basics...

Why am I writing this journal?

Mostly, because my female friends encouraged me (they’re sick of guys who are clueless) and my male friends encouraged me (they’re sick of being clueless and single).

I look around, online and off, and I see people making really obvious dating mistakes because they just don’t know any better. Guys do it talking to ( Read more... )

No offense, but giving advice like this isn't very effective.
Newflash: every woman in the world is not you, or your friends. And the way you phrase things make you look a lot more like a hater of all males than a girl trying to help them out. Don't be so cynical. Not every guy is clueless. In fact, most aren't. But women like you and your friends, who expect guys to live up to some kind of set of rules and regulations that you set, tend to scare them to the point that they give up.

But thanks, really, for trying to explain to a whole new generation of American males exactly why they should try to fit into a woman's mold of perfection in the search for sex. I'm sure they won't mind the castration as long as they get to look at you and your "hot" friends.

1) This journal CLEARLY isn't for guys who know what they're doing... it's a journal for guys who DON'T to give them something to giggle at and maybe some tips.

2) My friends are mostly men. They think this is hillarious.

3)There aren't any photos of me anywhere and there isn't going to be. My icon is the lovely and highly shaggable Lucy Liu.

4) I date women too. My idea of 'perfection' is Keira Knightly.

5) The quote from my friend Nicholas Smith clearly indicates I am NOT one of the babes this journal is hoping to assist guys in shagging.

well i'm not the girl who wrote this and i agree with her. if you don't like it, don't read it.
freedom of speech is her right.
and freedom not to look at this is yours.

I'm glad I'm getting some love from the other ladies!

I've had a few emails from women who think this journal is a bad thing.

(I'm in no way associated with the masked gun man who is forcing them to read it. o.0)

So do I,
This journal is well-written and witty and in no way could it be conceived as offensive so I don't see why it should get abuse hurled at it.

Keep up the good work, I've literally only just started reading but I like what I see. Seriously, this is on the same level as a lot of newspaper columns, I love it :)

haha so true. even if you're already in a relationship, you can't help but agree with even one of these points. i'm adding you, seems like a good read.

I found this journal pretty interesting (and funny at the same time). I got a few tips out of it (thanks). My only complaint is you assume that all guys want to do is sleep with girls. Personally, I'm waiting to get married before I do that.

The 'assumption' that guys only want sex is part of the joke.

I actually assume most of the guys reading this are looking for women to date. After all, sexy with hot, sexy strangers is only a visit to the red-light district away!

I'm a full supporter of marriage and all its perks.
