photo by Publicly_Scalped Advice from three of our guy friends. This week they answer the following: Do men really love bitches? Straight Single Guy (Colin): Guys love a challenge. That’s why we’re always trying to fix cars, throw the perfect spiral, or look cool with really awful facial hair. If we’re ever with a bitch, […]
photo by Daquella Manera Dear Em & Lo, In September I will participate in a charity event that depends on donations from people I know to raise money. In order to make my fundraising goal, I’m going to email everyone I know. Is it tasteless to include exes who may not really like me anymore […]
We usually don’t dignify the crazies with a response, but we just can’t let this one go: A string of reader responses got us so infuriated that we decided to dedicate an entire column to setting him straight (no pun intended).

photo by mtkopone Dear Em & Lo, I like a guy that I work with (I’m an office assistant and he’s a mechanic) but I’m not 100% sure that he likes me back. I don’t get many opportunities to talk to him privately at work as other people are quite often around, including his mother […]
