Proudly Selfish…All Day, Every Day  

Posted by: MetAnotherFrog Admin    Tags:  , , ,     Posted date:  April 15, 2013  |  One Comment



MS. BLUE A few months ago I wrote this post concerning the fact that I’m often witness to or inadvertently drawn into awkward conversations about the ‘sad lives’ singletons lead. Despite the fact that more people are single than married in Canada, the US, Britain and beyond, in my experience the default assumption of most people is that everybody – particularly women – should be very interested in getting...

Vintage Frog Lore, 26: Am I Too Picky?  

Posted by: Sam Sharpe    Tags:  , , , , , ,     Posted date:  October 3, 2012  |  No comment



SAM SHARPE Folks, I've penned many pieces for this site, most of which I wouldn't change for all the sex in the world. Ha, you and I both know that's not true but the point of my hyperbole is that I hold few regrets...but if I were to choose one the following piece might be it. To be clear, I don't regret writing the piece, nor do I regret the thrust of my argument. But if I could do it all again I might clean up the language a little....

Ain’t Nothing Sexy About Puke

SKYE BLUE So far this month, among other things, we’ve seen how being an overly ambitious bedroom daredevil can bring an otherwise pleasant evening to a dramatic and painful end; discovered that our resident slut Elizabeth Rose was not always the shameless minx...

Worst. Sex. Ever.  

Posted by: MetAnotherFrog Admin    Tags:  , , ,     Posted date:  June 6, 2011  |  4 Comments



HER LIL' BLACK BOOK I have found that I’m not the type of person who enjoys a one-night stand. Yes, they can be great, but when you’re the type of woman who schedules laundry, spontaneous sex with a newfound friend is not a regular occurrence. But then I met…him. I was coordinating a wedding reception for 500 at a banquet hall. Two weeks prior to the wedding, the couple and I did a walk through of the venue. I had a series of technical questions that could only be answered by Michael*, who wasn’t in yet....

All the Single Ladies…Back the Hell Up!!!

A Guest Post by THE HOPEFUL ROMANTIC I might as well wear a sign round my neck. Or maybe brand a purple S on my forehead for some of the reactions that I get. Hide your husbands...and your kids! There's a single woman at this wedding! Husbands or partners are clutched a little bit tighter; children are carried away to another part of the room...and some of the looks. I don't know when the suspicions arose or what the fear derived from. And I don't think that such reactions that I have been on the receiving...

I’m Not Ready Means…I’m Not Ready

SAM SHARPE "I’m not ready’ is just an easy cop out for all the immature and commitment phobic men trying to get one over on women. Nothing more, nothing less"

--Veronica

For our series about the downside of being in a relationship or in dating, I was initially going to write about a strange encounter I once had with a woman’s shit. But then Skye went ahead and wrote a post...

SKYE BLUE It’s February and just in case you missed Sam’s Mating In Cativity Sucks B**** post or Elizabeth’s declaration that one plus one equals coitus, we’ve begun our month long discussion of the downside of dating and relationships. And tonight it’s my turn to share one of the things that I don’t...

Secrets From The Goody Drawer Vol. 1  

Posted by: Skye Blue    Tags:  , , , , ,     Posted date:  January 28, 2011  |  3 Comments



SKYE BLUE Welcome! This is the inaugural edition of Secrets From the Goody Drawer. As I explained in Full Frontal Secrets this biweekly (or fortnightly for the Brits) column "will be the place for our random, very unscientific and sometimes slightly deranged musings about everything...even the 'unmentionables' tucked away in the furthest and darkest corners of the goody drawer." And the question of the day is... ...

Perils Of Travel: A(ss)tomic Bombs on an Airplane  

Posted by: Skye Blue    Tags:  ,     Posted date:  September 6, 2010  |  2 Comments



SKYE BLUE Okay. So, we recently got back from travelling around Europe for the last three weeks, and for the record we had a fabulous time. We covered a lot of ground while we were away, and in addition to doing a whole lot of heel-toeing on concrete in each city we visited, we got around via planes, trains, automobiles and even took a ferry ride. As the seasoned travellers among you know, you’ve got to learn to take both the good and bad that come with of living out of a suitcase and hustling through...
