“It’s comforting and a bit sad because it means we’re having the same conversations over and over, yet it shows we still miss each other enough to say it. It’s hard to constantly find a different way to express emotions through texting, though I have been known to send him photos of Legos in compromising positions that have made him literally laugh out loud at work. It’s the creative spirit in me.” – Little Miss Wordy
I am featured at The Good Men Project with a piece titled, “Technologically in Love – How Tech Affects Our Marriage.”
The Good Men Project is a diverse community of 21st century thought leaders who are actively participating in a conversation about the way men’s roles are changing in modern life—and the way those changes affect everyone. We explore the world of men and manhood in a way that no media company ever has, tackling the issues and questions that are most relevant to men’s lives. We write about fatherhood, family, sex, ethics, war, gender, politics, sports, pornography, and aging. We shy away from nothing. Our content reflects the multidimensionality of men — we are alternatively funny and serious, provocative and thoughtful, earnest and light-hearted. We search far and wide for new stories and new voices from “the front lines of modern manhood.” And we do it without moralizing and without caricaturizing our audience; we let guys be guys, but we do it while challenging confining cultural notions of what a “real man” must be.
There is plenty to talk about with the topic of technology and it’s impact on people, families and communication.

Bruce, we could discuss the positives and negatives (there are definitely both) endlessly though I wish more of us would share the positive ways technology has kept us connected. While it can be all consuming when used to extremes, I do believe it makes it easier to stay in touch with family and friends, share photos of kids growing up with grandparents not close enough to enjoy them, and many are a little less lonely when they connect with an online friend. Always enjoy a visit and comment from you. Thank you!
