Answer to:
Should I trust my boyfriend? It was wrong of him to keep that from you. Personally, if he had done something like that to me, I would've been very upset. Admittedly, you've been dating for two months, but once you guys got past the whole 'finding out about you' stage, he should've told you. Also, you shouldn't have to talk to this ex of his. If he really wants to make it work with you, he needs to tell you himself about...

Answer to:
Ok, I like this boy, don't see him often, but really want to spend more time with him, but everytime I see him, I don't know what to do. Start a conversation. I'm not sure where it is that you see this boy, but if it's in an activity or group that you do (i.e. like in a club or at a church), discuss it with him. Once you build up a rapport, you should then ask him to hang out, maybe go to a movie or play video games or something where you're both doing something and can hang out.

Children aren't for everyone, and especially other people's children. It's hard, and it's better to be upfront and honest about how you feel about it than try to fool yourself...

Am I gay if I get erect when I look at my penis? I am not 100% sure if this is what erects me and honestly, my penis is small so why? Really, I don't quite understand why people tend to worry about whether they're gay or not. You are what you are, you like what you like, and you don't need a damned label to prove it. But back to your question; men tend to get erect often, and often there will seem to be no real reason behind it. One reason could be because your body occasionally will get an overdose of testosterone and...

Do you turn to sex when you feel lonely? I have, and probably will again. Sex is a lot of things for me. It's a release, euphoria, adrenaline, and the one thing that makes me feel really sexy.

I'm not very good at expressing myself verbally, though you wouldn't guess it from the way I can...

How much should a person compromise in a relationship, in terms of dealing with jealousy? My boyfriend is probably just being human when he gets a little jealous (I work with all men, and nearly all of my friends are men), but I never get jealous. It depends on the relationship and the people obviously, but you should know how far you are personally willing to go to compromise.

So, my personal opinion is that your boyfriend's buddy is an uncouth idiot, and that you would also be one if you try to make him choose between you and his friend.

Answer to:
When a male "cums" during oral sex, can you continue to give him oral or does he get "over stimulated" or whatever it is called..? From my experience, a man's penis tends to get extremely sensitive ejaculation, and continued stimulation may even cause pain. I do not recommend continuing oral stimulation after ejaculation.

Answer to:
If a married man watches porn every night, is that a healthy marriage or is there something sexually wrong with him or her? Having stimulation from alternate resources is natural, however if the behavior is becoming grossly abused, I think that the individual could have psychological/emotional issues. If it's becoming a problem you should sit your spouse down and discuss it.

Is it ok to have feelings towards one person of the same sex (kissed before) but not attracted to others? I've always been straight Don't get caught up in the labels. You can be emotionally attracted to someone as much as you can be physically attracted to someone.

So, I think it's perfectly fine and makes complete sense.

Being bisexual, I often see the way people change once they learn about my sexuality. They can be sweet and charming and suddenly turn viper-like; others tend to be more awkward, doing their best not to offend me, because I suddenly don't fall into any category they can clearly define. Occasionally, I'll meet amazing people who understand that my sexuality doesn't define who I...

We're both 19, he has an AA, I'm still in college, we don't drive, we don't have jobs yet, and we both still live with our parents. Would I be making a mistake? Any advice? It kind of sounds like you already know the answer to your question. The fact that you're asking if you're making a mistake makes me think that you're unsure, and you should never move in with someone if you're unsure. Especially if it's someone you love. I understand wanting to be with him. I just think you know that you're both not ready to actually move out...

My room mate asked me if I slept with her bf. I didn't and I've told her repeatedly but she doesn't seem to believe me... What should I do? There's no reason to put up with her accusations. Whether or not you actually did anything with her boyfriend is irrelevant; she isn't taking you at your word, and that's only going to make things worse further down the road. I know. So, I suggest finding another place of residence soon; it's unfair to have to put up with an unreasonable person, especially if you pay to live...

How fast are you at typing on a scale of 1-10? I've been typing since I was a kid. I clock in at about 75 wpm, 90 wpm with mistakes. I don't look at the keyboard, haven't in years. So, I'm always surprised to find how dirty it gets. In any case, I'd say I type at about a 8, since I know people who type faster and better than I do. Of course, they do it for a living, but still.

I tend to become best friends or fast lovers with the confident/cocky dynamo, because I find them too immature to have a real relationship with. They're fun for some things, but they'd be too embarrassing/frustrating to be with for long.

It's easier for everyone in a group. It worked for me. I never hid the fact that I was bisexual. People chose to see what they wanted, and were surprised when they 'found out' I was bisexual. And both my gay and straight friends have a mixture of reactions to it. One thing I wouldn't recommend, though: Do not go to a family gathering with a date unless both parties are aware of the situation. Just... not fun, though I think it was...

I'm a very 'well-endowed' female, and quite literally looked 17 or 18 since I was 12. I was a very timid individual, and I can definitely say the experience changed me dramatically. I had never had a boyfriend before then, and I've always been able to relate better with older people than those my own age. He was 24, and...

Answer to:
Do you still talk to the person you lost your virginity to? Nope, and I really don't care. He wasn't that great of a guy. He was definitely the *wrong* guy, in any case. Therefore the attraction, go figure. It just makes me happy that I got over that stage of my life.

Answer to:
At what age did you lose your virginity or haven't you yet? And what age are you now? I'm now 18, and I was among the many teenagers who developed way too early for her own good. Hence, I had an inflated head, and all the girls hated me, but the boys... Well, I'm sad to say I've been 'experienced' since I was 14. I wish I had waited longer.

Will you state two truths and 1 lie about yourself? Don't say which is the truth and which is the lie and I will try and guess. :) I love the color green. People who speak their mind without thinking first bother me. Usually, my best friends tend to be people who like attention.

Answer to:
Why is that partner or husband?wife been replaced by the bland "significant other"? I think someone has said it before, but it's because of the obsession for politically-correct terms, like Hispanic (which isn't a real ethnicity because no one is from Hispania). Also, if you're clumping together straight and gays and people of different genders, it's easier to say "your significant other" than "your husband, wife, or partner." ...

Answer to:
Is "until death separates us" any longer relevant? Personally, my experience is that it's "until I get tired of you." In an ideal world, we would marry the people that we are going to love until the day we die, but... Unfortunately, it's not an ideal world. No, I don't think "until death separates us" is relevant any longer.

Answer to:
What was the meanest thing that happened to you when you was in school? Which school? Elementary: I was teased relentlessly because I couldn't read the sign for the girls bathroom, so I went in the boys for a whole week before I figured it out. Middle School: Boyfriend asked me out, I dumped him, he spread a rumor about how easy I am, I kicked him in the balls, I got suspended. High School: Because I'm bisexual, I've gone out with girls...

Answer to:
If you were a parent, and your teenage child announced that he's gay or she's a lesbian, what are the best things for the parent to do or say in response over the following 2 weeks? Personally, I wouldn't change how I acted or treated my child. Gay, straight, or alien, I've raised them and loved them, and they've always been gay, straight, or alien, so why should I change if they haven't?

Answer to:
You have a sexual and/or romantic interest in someone. What do you do? a) Nothing b) Throw yourself at them c) Run & hide d) Reach out and get to know them and develop a friendship first e) Other Kind of D, kind of B, but more of an E. I'm a friendly person, but I also tend to be blunt. If I meet someone, and by the end of our conversation, if I feel an attraction, I'll go, "By the way, you're pretty cute, and I really like your sense of humor. Wanna hang out sometime?" And I literally mean hanging out, not friends with benefits. That's never been my...

Answer to:
How are same-sex marriage bans enforced? Is there a DNA test? Same-sex marriage bans are enforced by denying gay couples the rights that any straight couple would have. According to the NGLTF, privileges enjoyed by heterosexual married couples but denied to gay parents include: legal recognition of the parent-child relationship for children born during the relationship; recognition of parental status under the Family and Medical Leave Act; access to...

Answer to:
Why do people think being gay isn't a choice? I can only speak for my bisexual self, but I believe that *others* think that being gay is a choice the same way they believe that they choose who they fall in love with. We are all emotionally attracted to a particular type of person. You might *decide* to approach them and ask them out, but you can't help being attracted to them. You don't see someone and go, "Well hormones,...

Answer to:
Do gay people turn themselves on? Well, I'm no representative of the LGBT community, I didn't take a poll, and this is just one woman's opinion, but: Isn't the point of being hetero- or homosexual to be attracted to *others*? Besides, your hand might be dandy, but you can't marry it. Well, I suppose you could, but wouldn't it be a little psychotic to do so? Plus, conversations with your hand...

Answer to:
Why don't women sit with their legs spread wide open, in the same way that men do? (Assuming of course that they're not wearing skirts) Why don't some men sit with their legs crossed like some women do? Personally, I'll sit with my legs spread open without thinking about it, but if I do it in public, people usually give me weird looks. Like, I'm inviting them, or something. *shudders* I suppose I could take a gander, and say that maybe since women don't need anything to 'breathe' down there,...

Answer to:
Just curious. To all bi-sexuals : If I am attracted to and turned on by females (their feminity, soft figure 8 shapes, sound of their voice, etc etc) and I assume you are too, how is it that you are ALSO attracted by masculinity, which has none of these? I can only speak for myself and not the rest of the bisexual community: Physical attraction is all well and good, but that's not usually what hooks me. I'm much more concerned with whether we fit together as people and not as bodies. I look for a mixture of masculinity and femininity, and isn't that what everyone looks for? I look for a particular type of person, not the...
