As a young woman in her college years in the middle of an economic struggle, I feel that information regarding healthy and cost-efficient alternatives for menstrual care are rather hard to come by. I spend a lot of time seeking out magazine articles, advertisements, zines, books, and websites that have an abundance of information on this topic, and I have put together a little bundle of tips and new ideas for those out there on the rag!

While compiling ideas for the latest segment of“Burlesque And The City”, I had some strong emotions flooding my mind about a past relationship, one from which I am still healing. My heart was broken and I was left standing alone wondering what went wrong. How one minute I could be madly, deeply in love, and the next realize that your lover wants nothing of the sort.

I know I’m not the only one who has gone through this. I know this. And it’s not the first time I’ve been through it either, and it certainly won’t be the last. I am sick of people assuming, and then saying out loud, that my partner is my roommate. It’s been happening for years…

Not long ago, in a place just near by, I was hosting a kink community party. No dress code was required at the establishment, but dressing for the theme, in fetish wear or basic black was strongly encouraged.

Unlike last month’s article, this is not about a guy I met online. This is about four guys I met online. I’m lumping them all together because they shared the same annoying trait.

Each of these episodes ends the same; they make some declaration about not being into “any of that gay shit,”
Dear Sarah,
I’m a service submissive that is currently looking for a Dominant, and in the meantime I’d like to improve my skills. Do you have any recommendations for ‘polishing’ up my service skills?

The government has a legitimate interest in curbing traffic in child pornography – of this there is no question. However, as is too often the case, the laws enacted to fight a real problem are entirely ineffective against it, yet manage harm to a population entirely innocent of wrongdoing.

There is such a thing as too much of a good thing and of course – even just a little of a bad thing is way too much. One of the simplest but hardest to master skills in life is the utterance of the magic word “no.” While your kinky life may often offer you a respite from your everyday life or may even come to replace that life – never has a skill been more important!

The other day, I was asked about why there is so much fat acceptance in the queer community. Now, of course it wasn’t phrased quite as respectfully as that, but I like to think of it in a nicer way.

I find that the gym is a great place to think.
Perhaps it’s because I’m competitive – if I can’t run faster or longer than the sweaty guy two treadmills away, I could be more productive listening to podcasts, which were either recorded graduate-level critical theory lectures, or Dan Savage. That’s right, marathon runner, I’m just as awesome.
