  • How about some new topics for a change.

    We've had all these letters before, from another perspective at least. 1) We had a guy write a letter about his wife wanting him to have a vasectomy. This was just about 6 months ago. Could this be the husband of LW 1? 2) We had the guy whose girlfriend was caught snooping on his computer and from the girlfriend who found pr0n (possibly child) ...

  • Serial Philandering= Ok. Polygamy=Evil?

    So having 40 sexual partners is just fine (America is the home of McDonalds 1 billion served), but actually be committed to a polygamous marriage of consenting adults is a horrible crime against nature and society? Yeah sure, he claimed fidelity to each one one at a time. That makes all the difference, since he left them after 8 hours, or 8 days, ...

  • More visuals like this, please.

    ''But no one wants to think of the president of the United States sneaking away from his desk, furtively taking a drag in the Rose Garden, and flicking his butts into Michelle's vegetable patch.''

  • process is value-added.

    I went to school in Williamsburg, Virginia, and one of the ways I kept myself solvent was as a tour guide in Colonial Williamsburg. I did not get to wear a costume (which was a shame from the ''dressing up'' point of view, and a blessing from the ''layers of wool in the un-airconditioned, humid summer'' point of view), but spent my days clad in ...

  • "Plastic surgeons tell me how to fix my face"

    I enjoyed your article on this topic. I wish more women could see past the offerings of making a more beautiful face. I think a lot of us took on a low self image at an early age due to our acceptance with society`s belief that females should look beautiful. In our ignorance we never questioned the definition of Beauty!. After years of image ...

  • On calling women 'whores' and 'sluts'

    Dear Prudence, While I do not favor affairs, I do not appreciate the bigotry of your comments regarding a college student who has a married sugar daddy. As an academic who has written about male prostitution, and as a sometimes sex worker rights activist, I simply find it reprehensible that a self-stylized expert on decorum would reference ...

  • Exhibit A

    ''So, doesn’t tonight's debate makes the conventional wisdom right—that the vice-presidential pick really doesn't matter that much?'' It is precisely this belief, EmilybywayofRachel, that terrifies me so much. Can you, in good conscience, say that Bush's selection of Dick Cheney's was inconsequential? Cheney himself would probably say that he ...

  • Emily Yoffe blows the big one or maybe THAT's the problem...

    This woman must be a total atheist with no friends. This Emily writer is self absorbed in her own high opinions of herself that she misses the point of the true beauty of using the secret. The only way her friends would bring her a desk, buy her desk or loan her one is if they were dropping it on her head. ( I picture the wizard of OZ.). Try ...

  • Sending Mixed Signals at the Gym?

    Its about time that someone brings attention to an annoying matter of sexual decorum, or conflicting sexual norms, found in most gyms across America: people sending mixed signals. *There's the guy who stares at you no matter where you go, even if behind him. If he was focussing on his work out, then why did he turn around to stare at you? No ...

  • Fake Letters this week.

    These letters have to be fake. I mean, the first two are straight out of the movies or off of the television. Letter #1 is about some random guy who has a fetish about being in diapers. CSI had the same thing on last season. Letter #2 is objecting to a supposed family ''tradition'' where an older unmarried sibling has to dance at the wedding of ...
