life

For a while, I wrote for a site called The Good Men Project. My editor at GMP was great and encouraged me to write whatever I wanted. Much of what I wrote used humor to make more serious points.

* This piece about an Atlantic story on "The End of Men" made a lot of readers angry.

* This one was difficult to write. It's about poverty and the thin line that separates people who have and who don't.

* It still baffles me that this piece also made readers angry.

* Here's something a little lighter.

* This is based on an actual conversation I had with my barber.

* My theory: two types of men in the world.

* Many people don't believe this really happened. It totally did.

* I wrote this for a site called AskMen.com. The piece made askmen.com's readers bug-eyed crazy.
