Looking for Love in the Stacks

The distant summer I was a naive seventeen, I remember lobbying my then-boyfriend for a date-visit to a particular bookstore. He, a bibliophile, and I, a bibliophile, the proposition was ideal. We could hold hands and with our other hands rifle through select publications, pausing now and then to turn our looks of longing from the printed pages to each other.

The Bad Sex Contest

He swept her off her feet like a stallion sweeping a girl off her feet, and laid her gently down on the bed like a gentle eagle.
ï¿½Itï¿½s time,ï¿½ he said, and she knew that it was true. She had been waiting so long. But now, after waiting, it was time for him to rip his clothes off, and then rip her clothes off

Strange Bedfellows

The Morning After Virginia said she would make the breakfast herself. For it was a beautiful London morning in June. She kicked back the covers and looked at Cady Stanton’s luscious ass. Smelled faintly of honeysuckle. Or was that patchouli? … Read More

Assault 1, Silverman 0

This is not an article about the string of sexual assaults and alleged sexual assaults that have occurred on campus this year. I don’t know the facts about these. No one does, particularly—and disturbingly—not the people most intimately involved. I … Read More

Judging Desire

A few years ago, I attended a lecture on disability fetishism. Disability fetishists include people who are sexually attracted to people who are missing digits, joints and limbs. There are websites and chat rooms in which “devotees” exchange pictures, information, … Read More

Not Just “Like a Virgin”

I learned a lot about sex when I was growing up. Thanks to my liberal Manhattan private school education, I had some form of sex ed every year of my life starting in fifth grade. Countless classes led by middle-aged … Read More

Humpalicious Honchos, Bodacious Bigwigs, and Kinky Kingpins

Nefertiti, Egyptian Dominatrix Queen Even in her middle years, this Egyptian queen’s power and dignity were only surpassed by her extreme charisma. The firm jaw, the clear kohl-lined eye, the slightly tilted chin all scream “Lick my sandal, slave!” In … Read More

Verbatim

Overheard at Cloister dinner

Girl #1: Random sex is so stupid.
Girl #2: Not stupid. Just unnecessary.
Girl #1: Yeah. Unnecessary is a better way of putting it. It's like, I should have just gone to the Wa instead.

Overheard at Terrace pickups

Senior Girl: My pants are soaked with beer, I don't want to wear them home.
Sophomore Boy: Wear my pants!
Girl: No, that's Ok
Boy: I insist! (takes off pants)
Girl: Your pants are more soaked with beer than mine are. How does this help me?
Boy: Well, if you wear my pants home, I'll have to come get them from you tomorrow
