Upside of Single
An excerpt of my post published today in Double X, a new site for women launched by Slate:
Hair length is not up for discussion
Your chores are your own
Decision when to leave parties is completely up to you
You get to choose between the window and the aisle
No in-laws to ingratiate yourself with
Far less laundry
Temperature in the house (and car) is exactly as you like it
Flirt away!
No one to tell you not to wear that sheer blouse
Music selection (and volume) is your call
(Check back tomorrow for 30 more reasons. And please add to the list!)

Not having to spend time with people you wouldn’t normally hang out with if given the choice, i.e. his dumb friends or colleagues.
Not having to watch Discovery Channel, Ghosthunters, ultimate fighting, or any sporting event that causes unnatural amounts of rage.
