I’m fairly skeptical, but I wasn’t always. I’ve been to chiropractors before. Two of them, in my lifetime. I never paid for it. The first was someone who was friends with my parents and never charged me. The second was paid through my insurance; I think it was seen as preventative care. Some companies won’t take [...]
Lately men have been getting a dose of what women have been getting for a lot longer. Though, equality is still way off in the distance. Most of the beauty products marketed to women (and, more recently, men) seem to be full of empty promises. I can’t speak about every beauty product out there in [...]
Over the past few weeks, I’ve been thinking over feminism and it’s meaning. What I’ve come to realize is that it’s not the word that’s the problem, it’s perception.

Lately, there’s been some hubbub going on in the skeptic/atheist community. I’d be remiss to not mention anything about it, though I am already late. I don’t want to dwell on the details and specifics but talk about a greater picture. That said, I want to say that no one should be told how to [...]
Not quite short and sweet enough while in the midst of sexual pleasure? ;) I’ve been asked before what atheists say during sex. Sometimes, I guess someone could be trying to be funny but it can sound derogatory. Why is saying your partner’s name in bed such a foreign idea to some? I may have uttered [...]
