Resurrect Chivalry

By Ashley Keefer on April 19, 2010

I like to think of myself as an unconventional type of girl. I enjoy dancing to the beat of a different drum undoubtedly. No matter how unconventional I may be, I am still a sucker for romantic junk, and so is just about every other girl. So here’s my message for the boys out there: It doesn’t matter what she says because deep down she really does care about that gushy stuff.

Legalize polygamy

By Ashley Keefer on April 14, 2010

What I am about to say may or may not be completely absurd: I think polygamy, or group marriages, should be legalized. I know, I know, the first thing that comes to mind are all those crazy religious cults that practice polygamy and have a bad reputation for child abuse and brainwashing. However, there are a few reasons as to why polygamy should be legalized in the United States.

Sex: The deal-breaker

By Ashley Keefer on April 4, 2010

There is something scary about starting a new relationship with a potential significant other. You learn about the person’s likes and dislikes, beliefs, and past. Along the way, you may encounter something about the person that is a total deal-breaker.

I enjoy talking with my friends about how their relationships are going, and always find it interesting to hear what that particular friend considers to be a deal-breaker. In talking to a wide variety of people, I have noticed that there is a big difference in how certain people view sex. For some people, the sexual history of their partner can be a deal-breaker.
