Are we a monogamous?

Dear Single gals,

Do you really think that mankind is a monogamous species?

Questionable



Dear Questionable,

I would have to say No to this question. Very few animals are monogamous and we are not the exception. We are a species that adapts to our environment and a monogamous environment is what has been created for us and has been engraved in our subconscious for thousands of years. Can you imaging if we had evolved without the concept of monogamy? If there had never been such a thing as marriage or "life" partners? Families would still exist as we do crave human contact that isn't always sexual, but it would be more like a pack type mentality. We would probably live in social groups where we would be promiscuous with many different people...something like the Chimpanzee. In most species, males are programmed to spread their seed and females are programmed to get the best seed and to that I say...there's nothing wrong with wanting the best!.

Cheers!

Meet the Faulkers

Unlike the Single Gals I am a Gal in a relationship. My relationship is fairly new (just over 8 months) and I have to tell you not being a “relationship person” there are things I have needed to adjust to. Don’t get me wrong I have a great boyfriend (let’s call him 'My Stud') and I’m extremely happy to be in what I believe is a healthy relationship but I sometimes wonder how girls and guys co-exist. I say this because guys and girls think very differently. For example a couple of weeks ago "My Stud" asks me if I want to spend the weekend at his parent’s cottage. This wouldn’t be an issue but I have never met his parents and normally when meeting someone’s parents you have a meal and are able to leave when the night is through, a weekend is a whole different affair.

Weird things were going through my head stuff like; What has "My Stud" told them about me? Do they know I’m not white (I’m South African Indian heritage, "My Stud" is pure anglo Cdn)? What do I wear to make a good impression and let them know that I’m not some floozy? What if we don’t get along, what do I do then? Will we be sleeping in the same room and how do I make this not an uncomfortable situation? What if they start discussing politics or religion do I voice my true feelings or keep my mouth shut? What if his mother thinks I’m not good enough for her one and only son?

Now I’ve met many a parent and haven’t had any issues with them but I haven’t met someone’s parents in a while (we’re talking years) and was concerned (and rightfully so). When I expressed my concerns to "My Stud", he was so nonchalant about things and just said to me that I’d be meeting them anyway so what’s the big deal (referring to my concern over it being a weekend and not just an evening). See we are from different planets, to him it was status quo to me it was a whole analytical process of every action, word and move I would make on that weekend with the parents. So needless to say the weekend went off without a hitch and my analyzing things didn’t impact on things in the least. So my advice to you single gals is go with it, don’t worry about meeting the parents, just remember to be yourself and enjoy the dinner, weekend or night with his folks. If you’re the fantastic person I know you are they will love you and if not then do what you have to do to get through things unscathed (tequila shots perhaps?).

Cheers!

What’s your love substitute?




What’s a love substitute? You ask. It’s not your favorite battery operated toy or a one night stand or your pet dog. It’s the comfort food you crave when you’re lonely, depressed and even when you’re happy. For a Single Gal it is your substitute for a loving relationship. Apparently my love substitute is French fries. I do love them especially smothered in cheese and gravy..mmmmmmm Good!!! According to my Psychology of Disease teacher I am single because I have closed myself off from a human relationship. In my mind I am already in a committed relationship with French fries. Well before you say “WTF??” think about it ladies it is a great relationship. I can have them when I want, throw them out when I’ve had enough and I have wide variety to choose from (curly, wedged, crinkle). Now you are probably wondering “how does a girl ever get over such a relationship?”, well I just have to tell myself that I no longer need French fries for love, they no longer have a hold on me, so basically I dumped the fries. Sorry Mister freshly cut potato with your suit of gravy and cheese, you are out of here!!! We had a great time together and you will no longer be able to go straight to my thighs because that is the job of a real man! As per my teacher, a new love is coming along, no it’s not chocolate chip cookies it’s a MAN!!! I wonder if he will ask “Would you like fries with that?” or better yet he won’t need to ask he will come with a plate of fries!!

Cheers!

The Cougar - MEOW!

What is a Cougar exactly? The Urban Dictionary defines a Cougar as the following:

“An older woman who frequents clubs in order to score with a much younger man. The cougar can be anyone from an overly surgically altered wind tunnel victim, to an absolute sad and bloated old horn-meister, to a real hottie or milf. Cougars are gaining in popularity -- particularly the true hotties -- as young men find not only a sexual high, but many times a chick with her shit together.”

A 35+ year old female who is on the "hunt" for a much younger, energetic, willing-to-do-anything male. The cougar can frequently be seen in a padded bra, cleavage exposed, propped up against a swanky bar in San Francisco (or other cities)waiting, watching, calculating; gearing up to sink her claws into an innocent young and strapping buck who happens to cross her path. ‘Man’ is cougar's number one prey”

I find this term a little ridiculous but funny although some of my girlfriends get down right offended by it. It is ridiculous because women are getting labeled for dating younger men when men have been dating young girls for centuries and never have been labeled with a name? I think it actually looks more ridiculous seeing an older man with a significantly younger girl. Usually the first thought is “he must be loaded”, then it’s “she must have “daddy issues”” and lastly “he is obviously going through a midlife crises”.

An older woman with a younger man is usually 95% about the sex. Hell, if a Cougar is a woman in her late 30’s – early 40’s then she is most likely at her sexual peek. And since most dudes at that age have “let them self go”, the Cougar needs to seek out or “hunt” the younger fitter models that keep up with them. Chances are also good that at this age they have worked out all of their issues, have no baggage and do not want a man who is weighed down by an obsessive ex-wife, insecurities and financial issues.

So ladies, if you fall into the societal ‘Cougar’ label, I say embrace it! It is just a term coined by some bitter old man, who could not get a hot woman his age because of his beer belly, comb over and anger issues. And to the younger girls out there that also like to label …don’t be upset because 'Cougars' are stealing all your potential dates…when they're done you can have them back.

At the Single Gals Camp we say do what you want, date whom you want, live how you want and don’t judge!

Cheers!

Wondering Eye Balls

Dear Single Gals,

Is there a potion to stop wandering eyeballs?

I’m Over Here



Dear I’m Over Here,

Yes there is one sure way to stop wandering eyeballs. Stick a fork in them that will stop the self absorbed ass. Ok maybe that is a little harsh. First tell him you don’t like that he is looking at other women, and if he can’t respect that use the fork! Then dump him. If he is too busy looking for his next conquest while he’s with you, chances are good he does this all the time and his behavior will only leave you feeling insecure and hurt.

All the best, lets hope he just has A.D.D.

Cheers!

The Scratcher

Dear Single Gals,

How do you get them to stop scratching their "friends" in public?

Must They



Dear Must They,

Well I think if this is a reoccurring thing, that maybe he just needs to shower more often. However if he will not practice proper hygiene I think you should stand beside him and start scratching yourself down there to mimic him. Chances are that he’ll find your behavior embarrassing and ask what you’re doing. In which you can reply “doesn’t that turn you on?” Then when he says “No” you respond “Exactly!” If he does not get the hint, then jab a fork in his hand the next time he scratches and that should end it for good!

Cheers!

What do men really want?

Dear Who Cares,

This is simple, if they’re straight they want Vaginia and if they’re gay than they want Dick!

Did you seriously just say that?

Here are a few of the odd things guys have said to me, over the years.

“Hey it our Monthiversery” – Written via e-mail 1 month after our first and only date

“I could not stop starring at you, I was attracted in the most primal of ways” – Told to me after I said I was not interested.. ewe

“You know I still love you even though you need to lose 20 pounds, that’s how much I love you” Yes I was hideous at 5’9’ 138 pounds

“I’m not interested in a relationship at this time” Sent via text message after 2 months of dating. No worries ladies I responded “Very manly of you to text that!” he stills calls me to this day

“Mmmmmmmm I could eat you” Said the Vegetarian after our date – Ewe

This Guy gets the Single Gals best line of the year award….

“Are you looking for long term or short term?”- This was said to my friend who replied “I’m married with a kid” in which he reply’s “Short term than?”

Now I know we are all guilty of not thinking before we speak and lords know I have said a few dumb things in my life time. Here are a couple Single Gal not so smooth moments.

“Hey someone left their purse behind” Said to a date, as it turns out it was his man purse. Hey in my world men don’t carry purses.

“That’s a good place to meet men” Said to my boss, about her volunteering at a men’s shelter

Cheers!

Drinking on the first date

So you finally got asked out by the hottie that you’ve been eyeballing for months. You’re nervous, anxious and getting all kinds of advice from the hen house on what to wear, say and how to behave. This is a recipe for a dating disaster; especially if you’re meeting up for drinks - you may over do it. Here are 3 simple rules that we Single Gals should live by:

1) Have a drink; if you do drink occasionally it will calm your nerves.

2) We recommend 3 drink’s tops!!!! Yes we need a cut off limit. If your limit is 2 than stop at two. Know your limit and drink within it.

3) Drink your usual drink of choice. If you are a beer drinker do not decide that Date Night is the night to start drinking Martinis because you think it will make you look sophisticated. What will end up happening is you will have the 3 drink maximum and for you Ms. Coors Light, that is the equivalent of 9-10 beers. Unless you want to be a potential love interest for Brett Michaels Rock of Love, stick to what you know. Really do we need more ladies our there that behave like this:
VH1 Rock of Love 2 Viral Clip 1


Now go on your date and remember to relax. He asked you because he obviously likes you, so don’t worry about trying too hard to impress him. Have a good time and be your awesome self and a second date will follow.

Cheers!
Single Gal

Going Down

Dear Single Gals,

I think us guys could use some tips on great oral techniques that you girls like.

Tongue Tied


Dear Tongue Tied,

Kudos to you for asking instead of putting the snorkel on and diving in head first. Every woman is different as to what they like, but I think most will agree that you should take your time, be gentle and use that tongue. Check out the link below, this article is right on the mark and “Single Gals” approved.

Now stud go flex that tongue muscle and make her scream.

Good Luck!

Spank Me

Dear Single Gals,

My boyfriend and I just started having sex. Well I must say that I like it a little rougher than what he's giving. I would love for him to start talking dirty and spank me, but the relationship just started and I don't want him to think I'm a freak. Any advice?

Very Bad Girl



Dear Very Bad Girl,

First off, you’re not a freak, you just like it a little dirty and there’s nothing wrong with that. We think that you should break him in slowly if you feel he may get freaked out. Try giving him little love bites. If you don’t get any resistance to that, then you should talk dirty to him; you can do this while in the act or even throughout the day through e-mail, voice message or text to get him thinking about you in that way. This should prompt his inner beast and get him to voice his dirty thoughts. Once you are both talking dirty to each other, you can take it to the next level and say “I’ve been bad today and need to be spanked” then bend over. If he doesn’t get the hint then he’s just not that bad boy in bed that you want.

Good Luck! We hope you found yourself a fellow freak.

Cheers!

The Ass Man

Dear Single Gals,

How do you get your man to stop licking your ass?

Clenched


Dear Clenched,

Well it seems you found yourself and man with a booty fetish. If this is uncomfortable for you we suggest you tell your man this. However, if you have communicated this already then the alternative would be to put some of Frank’s Hot sauce on your ass. If he likes spicy beef you’re doomed. Another tactic would be to eat a big bowl of Chili and let it rip all night long. By the time you get to the bedroom that will be that last place he wants to go. No man in his right mind would want to put himself in the direct line of fire.

Cheers!

Smooth Lady like moves

Dear Single Gals

When it comes to guys, I'm not the most forward gal and definitely not so great with words. I like this guy and just can't tell him. I’m wondering if it might be best to communicate my messages with body language? How do I begin to learn some sexy but subtle, smooth, lady like moves?"

Sincerely,
Miss Pirouette Wannabee


Dear Miss Pirouette Wannabee,

We would love to help, but we are Single Gals after all and this question is beyond our expertise. However we have googled ‘How to seduce a man’ and here is what we have found:

1)Get your confidence up - Nothing is more attractive to a man than a woman who is confident, comfortable and happy.

2)Do Flirting Without Talking - Start with almost accidental sidelong glances. You can follow up with a direct look. The moment he looks back, then you instantly lower your eyes and put on an embarrassed smile.

3)Send him little signs :
•Show unclenched hands
•Play with your hair or caress other objects. Push your fingers through your hair
•Pick some fluff of his jacket (even if there is none!)
•Face him directly and slightly lean forward every now and then
•Wet and bite your lips from time to time (According to Cosmo doing this makes him think of other moist places)

4)Get in close - Talk to him, and let him know you like him.

5)Touch his hand accidentally -When you reach for something, try to accidentally touch his hand.

I hope this helps, and if any of this works let us know so we can go out there and get ourselves a man with our moist lips and hair flips.

Good Luck!

Cheers!

Jumping into bed

Dear Single Gals,

When is a good time to jump into bed?

Feisty.


Dear Feisty,

I don’t think there is a definite time line here. You’ve just got to go with what you feel but I definitely don’t think it is wise to jump into the sack on the first date, no matter how hot he is. Take your time to get to know him first because even though we are all adults and should be able to do whatever we feel, there is still a stigma out there that good girls wait. I believe men will judge you as that girl, not the one that he can take home to mom. If you don’t want something long term then do what you want, but if you really like the guy, then wait.

Cheers!

Who Should pay on the first date?

We received a question the other day asking if a guy doesn’t offer to pay on the first date, is it wrong for a girl to be turned off? I think this is an on-going debate between men and women in the dating world and warrants a blog! I have been on a few dates and have come to the conclusion that cheapness is not at all appealing and a definite turn-off. I do understand a man not wanting to fork out tons of cash on a date that they may think is going nowhere, but if they did ask the girl out, then that is the chance they are willing to take and should at least offer to pay. Men, if you are cheap and don’t want to cover the cost of a $50 dinner then ask her out for a drink instead. If you still need to split the $20 bill then you should not be dating.

In most cases, if a girl thinks the bill is excessive she will offer to contribute, I know I do. If you feel the date is not really going anywhere and don’t want to pay just offer to pay, hopefully she’ll say no “let’s split it”...and then you can say that you’ll definitely getting it the next time. If you do really like the girl and want to go on a second date, then pay, there is nothing more to it. Some people may think that is an old fashion way of thinking, but I think some things should stay the same. If a man asks me out, he should take care of it. I know I can pay my own way so I have nothing to prove. I also believe a man should hold the door open for me, carry the heavy stuff and put my patio furniture together. I can do all these things but it is nice once in a while to have someone else do it for you and beside who likes a door being slammed in their face?

Cheers!

Men don’t like bones…

We received an e-mail from ‘The Man” and he wanted us to inform the ladies out there that men DO NOT like bones (unless of course they come with a pitcher of beer and have BBQ beef attached to them). ‘The Man’ went on to say how unappealing and unattractive it is to see women with ribs and hip bones sticking out and he wants to know when did women stop loving their curves? We thought this was a very good question. Why have we stopped loving our curves? Back in the day women were soft and voluptuous - think Marilynn Monroe. Marilyn is the epitome of what a woman should look. She was all women; boobs, hips, apparently a size 12 and she wore it all very well. It’s time we go back to the era when women had hips and were worshiped for them.

Say NO to this:



Say YES to this:



Let’s bring sexy back!!!!!

A big thanks to ‘The Man’, it was nice to hear that some guys still feel this way.

Cheers!

The Bad Boy

What’s with our attraction to bad boys? I don’t know one woman that hasn’t been attracted to one. The characteristics of a typical “Bad boy” are as follows:

1. He is very confident, even cocky

2. He puts himself and his feelings first

3. He keeps women at an emotional distance and often thinks of them as disposable

4. He is not reliable

5. You are undeniably attracted to him because he knows exactly what he's doing when it comes to women, both mentally and physically

Now seeing this list makes us here at Single Gals wonder “how does an intelligent women fall for a guy like this and why?” Let’s break it down by characteristic.

1) Confidence is very appealing in both men and women. You want to feel that your mate is strong and will be there and has your back in any situation. Nobody respects a pushover.

2) We think we can change him into wanting to put us first. We think that we have some special power to change this Bad Boy, powers in which the countless women before us did not have.

3) The emotional distance makes him seems mysterious and intriguing. We want to figure out this Bad Boy and once again help him change his ways.

4) Unreliable = unpredictable = exciting in our minds. We are always wondering what our Bad Boy is up too and hoping that whatever it is, it will involve us.

5) Well great sex makes you stupid!! I think this reason, over all others, is why we seek out the Bad Boy. Their over confidences seep into the bedroom and we lose all reason.

I do believe that every woman should have one Bad Boy experience in her life. It will make you appreciate the Good Guys even more. I also believe that every woman should have at least one encounter consisting of nothing more than mind blowing sex. It will be a great story to tell the girlies when you’re old and grey... hell, even when you’re not!

The Good Guy:



The Bad Boy:



We're Doomed!!!
