Single Women Rule!

Today, I was introduced to 'Single Women Rule' website, an "international membership organization that encourages unmarried women to revel in life’s magic and feel truly fulfilled, whether the knight in shining (or newly refurbished) armor ever arrives." (SWR site)

It's very refreshing to read articles that are sincerely geared for women, and not in the way the society defines a "woman". I've only read a few articles and I must say that I really, really enjoyed them.

One of my favorites talks about SWR Dating Tips. In the article, the author (Keysha Whitaker - one of the cool people at my job) puts a different spin on Cosmo's Dating 101 article. Although I do enjoy peeking in Cosmo during my down time (that almost never happens), the theme of the magazine gets tiresome. The magazine usually encourages women to doll up and look yummy ... essentially making her a bait for the pig, as portrayed by Trojan commercials. Keysha's article however, is truly refreshing. SWR Dating Tip 3 is my favorite. Instead of smiling when you're out, snarl! If the guy continues to show interest despite the intimidation and ready-to-fight facial display, he might actually move from being of the swine family to the primate order.
