5 Things That Make Sexy Moments Unsexy

That was funny wasn't it.

Good sex makes for great stories. Bad sex makes for even better ones… unless you’re the person telling them. There’s always satisfaction and humor found in the unfortunate occurrences that happen to others. In this case, they also make you think of your own erotic escapades.  Even when you hear about people upside inside out living mediocre [...]

Why Don’t Rich People Believe in God?

atheism

Someone asked a question one time about why Black people believe in God so much, it’s simple, because God represents “hope”.  Hope that things can be better than they are today, hope that things will get better in the future, hope that maybe not in this life, but in the next life things will get [...]

SBM Remembers 9/11 Dr. J - I woke up to take a shower for class, when I got in the bathroom, one of the other guys on my floor said, “Did you see that a plane flew into the WTC?”  My response, “Word? That mean we ain’t got class, I’ll holla.”  And I went back to my room [...]

Dr. J and the Curse of the Short Haired Brown Girls

There's only but a few words that can be used to describe how waking up to this every morning would feel.

I never understood why they send kids to those “camps” when it seems like they might be gay growing up. I imagine that it’s a bunch of people all sitting around you praying and telling you who you should be. The church is good for that type of behavior. Well, last week I think I [...]

Hustle Hard by The Doctor and Slim

Boss sh*t.

Dr. J: It’s a Sunday afternoon and sitting in a crowded bar with friends, I tell them that I have to step outside for a few minutes to take a call.  Of course my friends say, “Oh my god! Work on a Sunday.” I don’t bother correcting them.  My 9-5 job is overbearing at times, [...]

How Being Tactful Helps and Hinders Life

Fine. I'll be that.

There’s more to being a Single Black Male than having a one night stand on Saturday and getting dropped off before the random shorty heads to church on Sunday morning. It’s a lifestyle (not to be confused with the eventually defunct condom). Like the rest of us, I work 5 days a week, run random [...]

She’s reading this article. He’s looking at a Tumblr site. More men should read SBM.org, tell them that. In my opinion the best music tours of all-time, of the ones that I was able to attend; (1) Jay-Z/Mary J. Blige – while not my favorite, can’t knock that type of star power in one place, [...]

Because You Been Drinking…

  A few weeks ago, I showed up to some bar and my friends had already been there.  Almost immediately upon walking in, someone said something extremely offensive, but they laughed about it too.  And I hate when people do that, they try and laugh so it seems like a joke, but between the two [...]

I’m Good and Grown. You’re Nuts.

My face before riotous laughter ensued.

Single men have never been civilization’s most responsible actors; they continue to be more troubled and less successful than men who deliberately choose to become husbands and fathers. -Kay S. Hymowitz in WSJ So I write for a troubled website? Rush to fatherhood is more responsible than taking my time and getting my life in [...]

Wait: Was that Racist?

I went to a Primarily White Institute (PWI) for undergrad. The office at … well … pretty much every single job I’ve ever had … has been Primarily White. My grad school right now is … yeah … Primarily White … in a city that is PW. Basically, I have spent a healthy amount of [...]
