A few months ago, we shared some fellow bloggers who were tackling the single cyberworld.  Here’s part two of Sisters . . . and Brothers in the struggle!  You can find  them in our links, and we’ll be sharing their content right here on SingleWomenRule.com!

Singletude: A Positive Blog for Singles

Clever Elsie is a 30-something unmarried female in New York, plowing upstream with just one paddle. She started this blog to combat the treatment of singles as second-class citizens. Single-headed homes now tip the scales at 50.3% of the population, so she thinks it’s time we threw our weight around! Singletude isn’t about false positivity but about recognizing that a human life doesn’t need to be paired to have value. And that means when we DO couple up, we need to treat each other as valuable individuals, not disposable entertainment. What she writes here is an outgrowth of that philosophy…

Relationship Digest

"Relationships can really work - if we're willing to be honest about them." - http://relationship-digest.com/

Relationship Digest, as you may have already concluded from the name, is a blog about relationships. Romantic, Platonic, Family, Racial, Gay, group, Singles, self-any relationship at all. It’s a blog about questions just as much as it’s one of answers. All on topic comments are very much appreciated, and hopefully together, we can all understand relationships better! This is the whole point of Relationship-Digest.

I am not now, or ever have belonged to the relationship expert party (yes, I stole this from the McCarthy era). I am not a guru, matchmaker, relationship expert or coach of any kind. I have respect for those that are, but I’m just journeying through in hopes of understanding relationships better, and if I can pass on some information to be helpful, all the better.

So sit back and enjoy my ramblings, thoughts, concerns and information. However, it would make my life a little brighter and this blog a little more worth while if you give your input. If you do, thank you. If you don’t, then thanks for reading

First Person Singular: Notes from an unmarried life

FIRST PERSON SINGULAR is an online gathering place, resource guide (and yes, venting booth) for single women. In January, 2007 we officially tipped the scales, when our ranks swelled to more than half of all American women. Magazines are devoted to us, politicians court our votes, and realtors have made it easier for us to get home loans. That doesn’t mean a single life is always easy. It’s not. We’ve been envied, feared, vilified and pitied throughout history, and much of the time, misunderstood. Who are we, anyway? How did we get here? And what’s the best strategy to be happy ever after?

Wendy Braitman created FIRST PERSON SINGULAR after she unwittingly became an expert. WENDY BRAITMAN is a twenty-year media veteran, who began her career in San Francisco as an on-air journalist and producer in radio and television.

Singlutionary offers stories, advice, humor and love from the Last Single Girl Standing.

So there’s definitely strength in numbers.  As we journey through internet land we’ve found a few more blogs by us for us.  We’ll be featuring content from these gals so check ‘em out!  (They’ll always be listed in our links section.) 

Dazzingly Single - encourages you to never base your happiness on someone else.  Monique writes this:

I tried to live the fairy tale. I really did: You’ll grow up into a beautiful woman and meet a nice guy and get married and have beautiful kids and live happily ever after.

But after a few years of unsuccessful happiness and soul-mate searching (and believe me, I did search), I realized I already had the best soul-mate I could ever need: myself.  That’s when I decided to let go of the whole thing  and enjoy my life while falling in love with myself . . .

Does that mean I’ve decided to stay single forever? To be honest, I don’t know. But what I know for sure is that there is no rush. I no longer care about whether or not I ever get  married or find a partner. There is too much to look out for.

Onely - Fresh perspectives on living solo

Onely, pronounced wun-lee, is an antiquated spelling of “Only”, as well as Lonely without the L, and of course the word “One” turned into an adjective.

When you type “Onely” into a famous web search engine, the famous web search engine asks you, “Did you mean: lonely“

No, we didn’t. 

We chose the name Onely because the word helps reverse popular conceptions of what it means to be single. Here at Onely, we reject the negative connotations associated with being “alone” promoted by contemporary American culture, connotations that suggest emptiness–such as “lonely” or “looking”–or that pathologize those who exist in the world outside of a coupled romantic relationship. 

Singulutionary - Stories, advice, humor and love from the Last Single Girl Standing.

I am an expert at being single.

Oh, I’ve been that single girl who did everything a desperate, horny, lovesick loser does. And I lived to tell about it.

Now, I live a happy, healthy, pity-free life and I seek to share my love for single (and desperation free) living with the world.
