Single Women Have a Unique Retirement Problem
By Don Seibert

Single Mom: Independent Woman or B….?
By Mindy Erickson

We’re all familiar with the label; if you’re an assertive, confident, intelligent and independent woman, you are often called a b….  Whether you have a high profile career or are a stay-at-home mom, the term still gets attached to women who posses these qualities no matter how “nice” we are.  Men who posses the same qualities don’t seem to have any negative connotations applied to them, but instead are respected and admired – even when they act like ruthless jerks!  In the work place and in relationships, if women show too much femininity we can be seen as weak, but if we are strong and confident we are labeled “controlling bitches.”  I feel we should be allowed to express our femininity while also showing confidence in ourselves and our capabilities without being assaulted by labels.

5 Easy Ways To Spice Up Your Relationship

1. Laugh It Up. Don’t take life too seriously. Look for things that you can laugh at together. My wife and I find humor in all sorts of situations that might cause other couples to fight — like our hotel forgetting to order our taxi and as a result, us getting separated and then missing our train in a foreign country. We actually saw the other couple this happened to on our trip yelling at each other in the middle of the street at the top of their lungs. We found that amusing (and sad for them) and still make fun of it to this day. Read the rest of this entry »
