Jackie Mancini Jackie Mancini is the only female employee and full-time Editor at a men's lifestyle site. In exchange for agreeing to crop bikini pictures and interview Suicide Girl models for most of the morning, she is given the afternoon to write about sex and be funny in articles that no one reads; you can be her first reader by visiting Guyspeed.com. She also writes for xojane.com and newscred.com, and has a story about her bizarre nomad father published in the book 'My Parents Were Awesome.' When she's not working, Jackie sometimes tells stories onstage about things that have happened to her, because most of her life has been ridiculous. http://jacquelinemancini.wordpress.com/
