All Men Are Liars

February 5th, 2008

The other day I noticed that all of the blogs I read are written by women. Oh noes!

Lest I get completely out of touch with the souls of stem-people (other than the one I live with), I’ve been making a concerted effort to find quality blogs written by guys for inclusion in my digital library.

My standards are high, I admit, but then, it’s my valuable time and bandwidth we’re talking about here.

The writing’s gotta be above the tenth-grade level and the content reasonably informative and misogyny-free (or at least self-aware enough to admit it when he embraces his Inner Oppressor). Funny, while not a requirement, greatly increases the likelihood of a second date.

One of the few that have made the cut is All Men Are Liars by Sam de Brito. His blog is very good - well-written, insightful, and yes, funny - but it was this video that earned him my feed subscription.

Not a lot of straight guys from uber-macho Australia have the guts to see for themselves how the other half lives, especially when it involves a Brazilian bikini wax.

    http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/ is a pretty good one as well, I believe.

    I like that one so far, PhoneFeminist. Thanks!

    Jo, I’ll give Cory a try. I remember him!

    Have you tried SweetJuniper. It’s a little daddy bloggish but it’s as far from misogynistic as boy blogs get! And, the writing is well above the 12th grade level. And, frequently funny too!

    I haven’t heard of SweetJuniper, Jennifer, but sounds like a good candidate. I’ll give it read. :) Thanks!
