10:32 AM yesterday Corylea commented on SL Letter of the Day: Have You Ever Heard of...?.
People don't ask if you've ever heard of something because they think you're skanky, Dan; they ask because they know that huge numbers of people write to you with their sexual problems. If you've never gotten a letter about something before, then it's REALLY unusual.

May 14 Corylea commented on They Need More To Do On the International Space Station.
Chris Hadfield is wonderful! Kudos to him.
May 14 Corylea commented on SL Letter of the Day: Insane Demands.
Anybody who can write a letter like this and NOT hear how she sounds is probably not insightful enough to benefit from Dan's advice...
May 8 Corylea commented on North Carolina GOP Wants to Make It Harder for Teenagers to Get Tested for STIs and Seek Treatment.
I guess the legislators of North Carolina must all be child-molesting abusers, then, since that's who this law seems designed to help...
May 7 Corylea commented on Delaware Beats Minnesota—Eleventh State to Legalize Gay Marriage.
I was born in Delaware and moved to Massachusetts because it was more progressive. :-) Glad to see they're catching up!

Apr 30 Corylea commented on What He Said: Frank Bruni On Jason Collins and When Gay People Will Shut Up About Being Gay.
Plus, straight people talk about THEIR romantic relationships all the time. Turn on any radio, and most of what you'll hear is men singing love songs about women or women singing them about men. Go to the movies, watch TV, even play video games, and you'll see straight relationships all over the place.

Talk to people, and they'll tell you about weddings, prom dates, baby showers, and divorces. Who's dating whom, who's marrying whom, who's suspected of cheating on whom -- most of what straight people talk about, most of the time, is heterosexual romantic relationships.

Lesbian, gay, and bisexual people talk about OUR romantic relationships because that's what people in general talk about.
Apr 29 Corylea commented on SL Letter of the Day: Mixed Signals.
"Do you know what the funny thing is about mixed signals, OCC? In most instances mixed signals are actually one loud, clear, unmistakable signal: 'I'm a fucking mess! Run! Run! Run!' "

This is so very smart! Half the people I know need to see this. Seriously, Dan, you should sell tee shirts or something with this on it.
Apr 23 Corylea commented on Advice Cop: Wanting to Fuck 19-20 Year Old Guys ≠ Wanting to Fuck Nine Year Old Boys.
How Amy ever got a column is beyond me; I've seen better advice from random commenters than from her.

Apr 17 Corylea commented on New Zealand Legalizes Same-Sex Marriage.
I knew New Zealand was fucking gorgeous, but I had no idea it was so sane and sensible, as well. Sounds like a great place!
Mar 20 Corylea commented on Savage Love.
You STILL get questions about this? That's truly bizarre. This thing has "urban legend" written all over it.

It's amazing what some people will believe. But then, most people are educated to believe in an invisible sky friend, so I guess they're actually trained to believe in things that are wildly improbable and have no good evidence for them.
