hooking up
I've had crushes on women my entire life, but I've never gotten around to dating one.
When I was leaving for college, my high school friends predicted two things would occur once I fled the nest, away from my WASP-y parents: 1) I'd become a chain smoker to complete my poetry-reading, philosophy-pondering image, and 2) I'd get it on with girls. The Frisky: Documentary Suggests All Women Are Gay
After four years at hippie-dippy NYU, surprisingly, neither of these predictions came true. Alas, while I still have no interest whatsoever in getting lung cancer, I do still have an interest in hooking up with girls. Except these days, I'm pretty much convinced it's never going to happen. … Read More

How to distinguish between having sex and messing around. Definitions vary.
What constitutes sex and what doesn't? Fifteen years after Lewinskygate you'd think we'd all have it figured out, but it seems we don't. Teenagers who haven't had intercourse are having oral sex and calling themselves virgins. Heterosexual couples who are in the early throes of a relationship say they still haven't gone all the way even if they've heavily petted. And average Americans are still writing letters like this one to Savage Love:
My wife and I were recently regaling each other with anecdotes from our past, and she easily had the most interesting story: It seems that when … Read More

Four signs a roll in the hay is worth it before an article of clothing comes off.
One could definitely, definitely make the argument that good sex is so elusive that it's near impossible to spot it walking down the street, approaching at Happy Hour or sharing coffee with you. One Night Stand Dos And Don'ts
We'd agree. What gets one carnally revving is often an annoying and subjective mix of timing, emotional meshing and a pH balance of hormones and dirty talk all swathed together in Egyptian cotton bed sheets.
But this doesn't mean we still can't bounce around ideas in an attempt to save ourselves the agony of an added number without … Read More
Unfaithful women confess why they cheated and, of course, how it made them feel.
According to a new study cited in The New York Times, infidelity is on the rise. The study also concluded that young women are closing the gap on what has largely been thought of as bad behavior for men—apparently, nearly as many women are cheating on their partners and spouses. This did not surprise me in the slightest—a large number of women I know in my age group have cheated on boyfriends. So why do women cheat? What are the circumstances that led to their infidelity? And how did they feel about it in the aftermath? After the jump, 13 … Read More
Captain Kirk boldly goes to The Hills for booty.
A week after taking the helm of J.J. Abrams's Star Trek reboot, Chris Pine was spotted out in L.A. with The Hills' Audrina Patridge. The two met for drinks May 15 at the Red Lion Tavern in Silverlake, California, and In Touch reports that Audrina was seen leaving his apartment May 2.
The pair met at the ShoWest convention in Las Vegas last month. He received the male star of tomorrow award, and Audrina got the convention's ladies' counterpart (yeah, we were surprised too). "Chris was looking at Audrina a lot, and you could tell that he thought she … Read More
Why it's almost impossible to stop yourself.
There are lots of things you don't know about a man when you meet him at a bar. Like, where he lives. Or who he knows. Or, sometimes, his name (which makes the phone number exchange mighty awkward the next morning). It is all part of the mystery, the fun…and the nature of the situation. Usually it/s better that way; knowing that kid likes Star Wars is not going to help set the mood.
Or, I don’t know…knowing he has a girlfriend?
I found myself in that precarious situation this past weekend. I was hangin' out when I was … Read More
The newest member of The Hills says she's willing to let producers play cupid.
Laguna Beach drama queen Kristin Cavallari is back on set as the newest cast member of The Hills. Cavallari will replace Lauren Conrad, who fans will remember was also Conrad's nemesis back in the day.
"I'm a completely different person than Lauren," Cavallari told EW.com earlier this week. "I have a lot more energy. I'm more outgoing. I'm a little more spontaneous. And she has a boyfriend so she's not dating on the show. I’m very open to dating and finding a guy."
People also reported that Cavallari is, in fact, "on the manhunt" — and willing to … Read More
Hooking up isn't always as glamorous as they make it seem in the movies.
Sometimes sex feel like it does in the movies: hot, coordinated and culminating in simultaneous, mind-blowing orgasms. Other times, it's not quite so pretty. The up-against-the-wall sex scene between Kelly Preston and Tom Cruise's characters in Jerry Maguire comes to mind. In real life, his arm muscles might get tired from holding her up, or she might not be able to climax with her legs wrapped around him so tightly, right?
OK, maybe you disagree. In which case, congrats on having a red-hot Hollywood sex life (liar), one any without awkward positions, dry patches or underwhelming performances! For the … Read More
