Is “Cougar” a dirty word?

Adopt a Guy

The French dating website AdopteUnMec.com (Adopt-A-Guy) is set up like a man boutique where women peruse the virtual racks looking for their perfect match. “Special on Carrot-Tops” advertises one online banner. Another alerts “buyers” to a “Total Liquidation of Men with Curly Hair: Everything Must Go.” Now, the company has taken their wares to the […]

Whilst reading through The Economist, we at TBW HQ found an interesting article called The Attraction of Solitude. Following is an excerpt. What are your thoughts on what they say? The Prada-toting protagonists of “Sex and the City”, a once-popular American television show about single thirty-somethings in New York, are unlikely role models for Middle […]

Sex and the Signposts

TBW’s, gbird has written a book! Here’s a synopsis: When I first realised my second marriage was in big trouble I did my best to mend bridges but was stonewalled at every turn. I was in despair and just could not understand it and in order to deal with all the emotions that were rushing […]
