This week a straight woman asks, “What’s the ideal New Year’s Eve for a single straight guy/straight married guy/gay committed or single guy?” Straight Single Guy (Max): New Years, much like birthdays, should be fool-proof fun. Good friends, tasty beverages, and maybe something cuddly to look forward to. […]
photo by plindberg We hope you have a great Christmas Day! And if you don’t have someone to play footsie with under the holiday dinner table, then make the most of getting to wear your George Costanza stretch pants for over-indulging.
