A Please disregard my previous email. As of the New Year, my girlfriend is no longer a virgin.—No Longer Dating Virgin Girl Q Uh, gee. Sorry about that, NLDVG. I’m not sorry that your girlfriend is no longer a virgin, of course, as virginity is a scourge that I’ve dedicated my life to stamping out. […]

Skating away
On a frigid evening with a windchill of roughly -35C, Halifax councillor Dawn Sloane fights to get a key into a frozen lock and turn it. Once opened, the door will grant access to the furnace and storage room of the Pavilion, the city-owned all-ages club on the Common, where the hose and lever for […]

Be the chief bullshit detector of 2008, Leo, says Rob Brezsny.
Shut up LIMP
Q I’m 19, female, bisexual, have been with the same guy for a year and things are great. I came home for Christmas and he went to his parents’ house, and I’ll see him in a few weeks. For Christmas, my mom got me some typical “mom” gifts—socks and underwear—but the panties had Disney princesses […]

Vanilla needs to be on the menu.
Q I’m a 21-year-old female and I know the my-boyfriend-has-a-diaper-fetish thing has been done to death. But… We’ve been together for two years. When he mustered up the courage to tell me about his fetish, I was supportive even though it did seem odd. To be completely honest, he’s so good looking and such a […]
Bros before hos
Q My two roommates are in the same frat. Roommate A and his GF have been going out for about a year. Roommate A is a great guy, but maybe a bit too nice: Recently, his GF cheated on him and he forgave her. Her infidelity did not come as a surprise to the rest […]
Share the bacon…
A Dan! I can’t believe you wrote that response to Hawt And Royally Depressed! He wrote because his wife of 10 years had “let herself go.” Men and women were hitting on him and he had to resort to stoning before he could be with her. And you told this asshole to “be honest with […]
