There is a group on goodreads, it just never really developed into anything. I’d love if more people joined and that changed!

I’m sort of assuming they’re all sleeping with other people until we discuss otherwise, so there are soooo many condoms involved. I only forego condoms once I’m in a monogamous relationship and we both get tested. I’m pretty amazed by how many people I’ve encountered who are laissez faire about the whole condom issue.…

Alright, yeah that makes a lot of sense. Now that I think about it, I think a few years ago I probably would have been one of those people who assumed exclusivity. Any advice for how to tell them without making things awkward? It’s not exactly something that comes up naturally.

Hah that’s how I always felt when people talked about polyamory. I think this only works because it’s sooo casual, so there’s none of the intense stuff that accompanies committed relationships. I don’t even know one of these dude’s last name. We just go out for drinks and enjoy good conversation and sex. It’s kind of…

Hah! Not yet. One of them did invite me to a friend’s birthday party at a bar that I was just at for a date with a different guy, who lives around the corner from said bar. Luckily he’s out of town at the moment. I don’t think he’d care, but it would probably be pretty awkward regardless.

It’s super casual so far, so we haven’t had any conversations about exclusivity or any of that jazz. One of the guys is in an open relationship, so I know he’d be fine with the arrangement. I have considered the fact that this could potentially progress to the point of an actual relationship with one of these people,…

So after a brief, intense relationship I’ve decided to take my dating scene in a different direction and am now dating three different guys, with a few more people on the radar. So far so good—I’ve got a dude for every mood and am thoroughly enjoying the sexual variety. Honestly, I feel a bit like a queen with a harem…

Yeah the “too practical” shoe thing weirdly has me more curious than anything else. What is a too practical shoe? I wear toms or flip flops every single day, both of which are practical as fuck. I’ve also got dicks coming at me from all angles, because no dudes care what shoes I’m wearing and I generally take them off…

They generally don’t bring up end dates/timelines until they have a good idea about what those will look like, which requires seeing some sort of response to treatment. If you were depressed without any real improvement, there’s no way for a therapist to know how much longer treatment will need to persist. That being…

I read an article about their tactics once. Literally everything in a casino is designed to keep you there/happy/spending. They straight up pump in oxygen so you never get sleepy and will stay up all night blowing money.

I think $50s are less used than $10s. Honestly, if you’d asked me to list all the bills I would have said $1, $5, $10, $20, $100, but that could just because I’m broke and mostly pay in crumpled up $1s.

I’m in my mid twenties and I don’t have any friends who regularly get that drunk anymore. Granted, my friend group pretty liberally uses other substances recreationally, so maybe they’re just trading out types of inebriation here, but it seems to me that getting shitfaced loses its appeal by the time you’re a year or…

Half my family is allergic to red wine and I’m allergic to champagne. It’s literally my only allergy and I’ve yet to find any sort of scientific explanation as to how I can drink all other alcohol, including wine, without issue, but somehow bubbly wine gets me shitfaced and blotchy, and then violently ill.

Ugh seriously. I have a friend whose little sister was recently sent home because her bra was slightly visible through her otherwise very conservative shirt. No cleavage, no bra straps, not even any skin. Just the mere outline of a bra is apparently too much. It’s absolutely ridiculous. I feel like at this point…

That’s beyond gross. I don’t know how they could possibly justify that, since there’s definitely no way they mandated bras in the dress code.

My attraction to man buns is ruining my life. It’s gotten to the point that I’m somehow more attracted to average looking dudes with buns than actual gorgeous men with short hair. I’ve been trying to figure out how to subtly get men I know to grow man buns. I have a problem, and I too am ashamed.

I had the same book! I saw an updated version recently, and was super impressed with the sections they’d added. As I recall, there was a whole part about sexual orientation and there might have been some additional body image stuff that wasn’t in the version I had.

We don’t even need taxation—if we just removed the absurd subsidies currently afforded to the meat industry, meat would be prohibitively expensive for most people.

That’s why it’s presented as an average. Some lucky women like you progress through the sexual cycle more quickly, while others might take significantly longer than 20 minutes. You also have to keep in mind that the clock starts ticking at the desire stage, which generally occurs before any type of sexual contact has…

20 minutes is the average time it takes for women to become aroused enough to achieve orgasm. This process generally begins before actual cunnilingus has started, so by the time you get down there there’s maybe only more like 5-10 minutes left.
