I don’t generally write much about “the sex” in this space, aside from the occasional Chuck Grassley/boobies joke, because, among other reasons, several of my colleagues—and, god knows, by this point, probably my mother—read this blog, so, really.
But my post last week about

Please, PLEASE tell me how I can relate this to my career?

evidently your "Mad Skills" don't extend to your brain.

This is brilliant. And so true. Guys never imagine that a woman isn't out there to get married and have babies... you mean, some women just like sex for the sake of sex? Gasp!
I feel liberated. You go girl.

Sorry.. I didn't read the title. It's a primer on cattle trading. Unfortunately I don't trade cattle so it's irrelevent to me.
But for all you cattle traders out there, you go girl!

Actually I've thought of this phrase often in the working world. I was doing some work for another group that I wanted to transfer into, in addition to all the work I normally did. I was talking to a colleague who thought it would be a "sure thing" that I would get transferred into this group. And I thought maybe, but why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free? Same thing might apply to a raise. If you are already working hard, and giving it your every effort, they are under no obligation to reward your hard work because they are already getting you to work hard.

Miles,
"...If you are already working hard, and giving it your every effort, they are under no obligation to reward your hard work because they are already getting you to work hard..."
That's the worse logic ever. This attitude will never get you a raise.
That's a great attempt at correlating a post on sex to the workplace but it isn't working for me. Anyone else?

Ok let's see if you can apply your mad skills to some reading. Firstly, in case you don't already know, Stephanie wrote this on her personal blog which got syndicated to Brazen and this post was chosen to be featured. Stephanie did not write this blog post specifically for Brazen Careerist.
Secondly, here is a link to Brazen's about page:

Have a read of it, you may notice that nowhere does it mention that posts have to be about careers. Feel better now?

"The cow is not for sale" works for me. Tee-shirt anyone.
Do they make up fake idiots with no links just to annoy everyone?

I'm liking the t-shirt idea as well!
and/or
I think I may print this on a card a mail it to a few men I've encountered "here’s the truth: Not every woman you date wants to marry you. We are not even close to that into you. Seriously."

Umnnn ... interesting perspective. I like your description of how black women react to it. Once you go black, you never go back.
