Sex positivity is a glorious thing. As long as it’s consensual, the number of partners you have or the kinks you choose to engage in are your prerogative and you shouldn’t be shamed for them. But not everyone who appears to embrace the movement is truly respectful and free-thinking. Beware of the woke f***boy: A particular type of man who espouses sex positivity to take advantage of women. A woke f***boy is the one who encourages women to take charge of their sexuality… but will still refuse to date a woman based on her body count. He’ll try to weasel his way into bed with you by reminding you that sex is no big deal and there’s no shame in it… despite neither of those things being the reason you’re not keen on having sex with him. He’ll loudly proclaim that he loves going down on women, but expects all the applause for going down and slobbering around for thirty seconds. He’ll be keen to try out everything he sees in porn, and make you feel like an old fuddy-duddy for not being up

It appears the outrage over his bombastic interview with British tabloid The Sun hit a nerve with President Trump on Friday morning, prompting him to lash out at members of the media several times during a press conference with British Prime Minister Theresa May. After claiming that his recorded interview with The Sun was “fake news,” Trump also targeted NBC and CNN as networks he generally despises. When NBC’s Kristen Welker asked Trump about his comments bashing his NATO allies, including May, Trump accused Welker of misrepresenting what he said. “That’s such dishonesty reporting because — of course that happens to be NBC which is possibly worse than CNN, possibly,” he declared before answering the question. Later, CNN’s Jim Acosta attempted to ask trump a question, and Trump refused to take a question from the network and instead called on Fox News’ John Roberts. “No, no. John Roberts. Go ahead. CNN’s fake news,” Trump said. “I don’t take questions from CNN — CNN is fak

Jeremy Hunt - Britain's longest ever serving Health Secretary -  was today promoted to head the Foreign Office after Boris Johnson's shock resignation. Theresa May moved to reshuffle her frontbench team after a day of high political  drama which threatened to bring her premiership crashing down. Earlier this evening, she faced down her critics at a crunch meeting with her MPs - known as the 1922 committee -  in Parliament, warning them they risk handing the keys of No10 to Jeremy Corbyn if they oust her. Mr Johnson sensationally quit the Cabinet in protest at  her 'third way' Brexit plans less than 24 hours after David Davis' resignation as Brexit Secretary. In an astonishing parting shot to the PM, Mr Johnson warned her that her plans mean the 'Brexit dream is dying, suffocated by needless self doubt'. His departure fuelled feverish discussion about whether mutinous Tory MPs will move to topple Mrs May by sending in letters of no confidence. But

Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress has said that President Muhammadu Buhari will be defeated in 2019. He identified the Peoples’ Democratic Party as the most potent opposition platform capable of defeating the incumbent in the upcoming presidential election, adding that he is the suitable candidate to fly the party’s flag to victory. I’m a free man now and available to try my luck elsewhere but I know that PDP is the biggest party and as long as they follow democratic principles, Buhari will easily be defeated, but if they handpick and force any candidate on the party, they will fail,”  he reportedly told the publisher of Ovation Magazine, Dele Momodu. According to a report published by Premium Times, Kwankwaso spoke with Dele Momodu, yesterday. Kwankwaso’s statement comes a few days after he shunned the party’s national convention in Abuja.

This is Andrés Manuel López Obrador, also known as "AMLO." The 64-year-old emerged as the country's president on Sunday night with around 53% of the vote. He grew in a middle-class family in Tabasco state, the son of a petroleum merchant during Mexico's oil boom. His friends at the time thought he too would become a businessman, but he chose to become a political activist and a human rights lawyer fighting against big oi.l companies in his 20s instead. On December 1, he will take over from Enrique Peña Nieto, who leaves the presidency with a mere 17% approval rating, and who clashed with Donald Trump over trade and the proposed US-Mexico border wall. Mexico presidents are limited to one six-year term, called a sexenio, so Peña Nieto did not run against López Obrador this year. López Obrador inherits a country plagued with organized crime, deadly violence, drug wars, and widespread corruption among law enforcement (2,010 views)

Mobile policemen took to the streets of Maiduguri, the Borno State capital, to protest six months unpaid allowances today. OMG!! It was learnt that the officers were posted to the state in January to fortify the security of the troubled state which has been bedeviled with Boko Haram insurgency. The officers, who were fully armed, marched in their hundreds to the Borno State Police Headquarters. The officers subsequently barricaded the highway, shooting sporadically into the air and scaring off motorists. Some of the students and workers had to turn back to their homes as they could not pass through the barricade. When contacted, the Borno Police Commissioner, Damian Chukwu, said he was aware of the protest. He further said the delay in payment of the allowances may not be unconnected with late signing of the budget.. This is Nigeria, look at how we living now?
