Previously, I’ve covered asking people if they’re gay, with the conclusion that it’s not your business. But what happens when it suddenly is? How am I supposed to react when someone asks me if I’m gay? I’m not, but I don’t want to come off as a homophobe when I deny it! You’re right, a Read more...

So you’re cool with homos? You’ll fly the rainbow flag? That’s great, but there are a few other colour-combinations that supposedly open-minded people still get hostile about. Why can’t bi people just choose already? Sometimes folk see bisexuality as a kind of “transition” stage, and for Read more...

It’s time to talk about personal boundaries, and how to navigate them. I promise, consent can be sexy! Why is it okay for a gay guy to slap a girl’s butt, but not me? First of all, it’s not okay for anyone to slap anyone else’s butt if it makes them uncomfortable. If a girl is comfortable Read more...

I wish to attract all the hotties. I need to be an Alpha Male. How do I achieve this status? I think that gorillas have alphas, or “silverbacks,” so let’s use our ape brethren as an example. In order to become a silverback, one must be old – old enough to have grey back hair. They make important Read more...

Becoming sexually active comes with a few physical issues, but it’s emotional ramifications that can feel like the biggest deal. This week is all about virginity, the loss of it, and why it’s only as important as you make it out to be. Is losing my virginity a big deal? People say it’s a Read more...

Young people struggle with identity issues. Things would be much easier if humans were hive-minded beings of singular purpose (probably galactic conquest), but we aren’t. We are billions of young and often directionless moulds, which is why our Facebook “inspirational people” are actually kind of Read more...

Why are some LGBT against gay marriage? Some of them commented on my Facebook red equals sign DP saying they didn’t like it. The Facebook “paint the town red” marriage equality thing was a Human Rights Campaign initiative, which is why your more sceptical liberal might not be on board. The Read more...

I don’t understand this gender/sex difference you keep going on about. A person’s sex is male, female, or intersex; is biological; and dictates the form a body will take. Wait! I know someone is reading this and assuming this means that being feminine/masculine is an inescapable fate! And you! Read more...

Talking loudly and incessantly at people, sadly, can’t always solve some problems. Here are some private issues answered, so you don’t have to talk to people you actually know about your sordid secrets. So my best mate just came out, what if he has a crush on me? What do I do? I’m not into Read more...

I’ve had a couple of people this past week mention feminism and the International Women’s Day to me in angry tones. I couldn’t figure out exactly what was enraging them so – maybe a Jezebel.com moderator replied snarkily to one of their comments – but there’s something in the water, for sure. I’m Read more...
