That is easily the sweetest story about a strap-on that I've ever read.

Ben on June 25, 2010 at 7:42 PM

Awwww! So sweet.

Lorran on June 25, 2010 at 7:44 PM

Sweet letter. Thanks for sharing.

Anne in MA on June 25, 2010 at 8:06 PM

@1: Seriously! Aw.

Gloria on June 25, 2010 at 8:26 PM

Finances too tight for a strap-on? Maybe Obama can start a program for you, 'cash-for-dongers' or something, with the big black models offered through ACORN.

on June 25, 2010 at 8:35 PM

Very sweet.

kim in portland on June 25, 2010 at 8:37 PM

AWWEEE!!! If only more guys were as awesome as that. I can only dream.

dakoneko on June 25, 2010 at 8:47 PM

The FTM column was pretty much a win all around, wasn't it?

Ems on June 25, 2010 at 8:55 PM

Group hug?

Sly on June 25, 2010 at 9:09 PM

Such a cock-centric letter from a victim of the patriarchy.

sirkowski on June 25, 2010 at 9:33 PM

Very sweet letter. Two questions: 1) Is the letter writer a guy or a girl? 2) Who is the strap on being used on? I'm serious. I've read this letter 3 times and I don't get it. Somebody help me out.

savagelover on June 25, 2010 at 10:03 PM

@11: I couldn't figure it out, either. It's a great letter regardless. I would hazard a guess that the writer is female and that the strap-on is being used by her fiancee on her, but I'm not sure.

Sly on June 25, 2010 at 10:11 PM

@12: Yes, the letter is heartwarming. I hope my comment didn't come across as flip.

For some reason I just feel the need to visualize everthing Dan writes about, and this one was throwing me.

savagelover on June 25, 2010 at 10:26 PM

Yay for props!

olechka on June 25, 2010 at 11:46 PM

Aw, @11, part of why this letter is sweet to me is exactly that it could fit the author-is-female scenario just as easily as it could fit the author-is-male scenario (ditto with author-is-strapon-fuckee scenario vs. author-is-strapon-fucker scenario). Just as it doesn't matter whether they're blonde or brunette or Black or Jewish or anything -- we all go awww-how-sweet regardless -- it doesn't matter if the author is male, female, transgender, or a space alien from the Pleiades.

ankylosaur on June 25, 2010 at 11:47 PM

Aww. They love each other!

Soupytwist on June 26, 2010 at 1:01 AM

Just adorable, thanks for sharing this Dan.

Lynx on June 26, 2010 at 4:29 AM

That's weird. . . "awe that's sweet." was the same words that came to mind head after reading that.

@1. so right. :)

julia09 on June 26, 2010 at 6:37 AM

"mind head?" it's early, but that reminds me of an old Steve Martin / Eddie Murphy movie, dunnit?

julia09 on June 26, 2010 at 6:52 AM

@11

Does it matter? The writer is clearly a loving, compassionate person who loves his/her fiance a lot and wants him to be happy.

Sweetest thing I've seen all day, and I already hit the funny cat pictures site.

blah on June 26, 2010 at 9:42 AM

@15: Actually, I would find it /significantly/ sweeter if they were a space alien from the Pleiades.

Calcaneum on June 26, 2010 at 10:50 AM

The author could be of either sex, but it seems pretty obvious to me that the FTM is the one wearing the strap on. That's the only way it makes any sense for the use of a strap on to be related to his sexual identity, which was the whole point of the letter.

on June 26, 2010 at 1:14 PM

@13 That's a dangerous habit...

on June 26, 2010 at 2:54 PM

Am I the only one who thinks "his gender identity doesn't really come up in our relationship" is a pretty weird thing to say?

kathy. on June 26, 2010 at 3:26 PM

Kathy (#24), I was just about to write that exact same sentence!

RDM on June 26, 2010 at 5:32 PM

@24: I get the feeling it means she/he thought of him as male, not FTM, and so didn't consider strengthening that gender identity with a strap-on.

Ridiculously sweet, regardless.

LQ on June 26, 2010 at 8:10 PM

I just assumed that the letter writer was female since they were engaged to be married, but, yes, this could've come from one of the few places where gay marriage is legal.

All we need now is one of those creepy "love is..." cartoons with the answer being "a new strap-on."

Lilliable on June 27, 2010 at 10:36 AM

just a little concerned that the "tears in his eyes" wasn't a result of putting the strapon on incorrectly ...

truck on June 27, 2010 at 1:23 PM

99% of the time, I read one of the posted letters and think, "Are you fucking retarded? Did you even read this before you sent it? Does Dan actually get paid to state what should be the obvious?"
With this one I said.."Awww. Awesome!"
It will be the goodness to offset all the crap that is coming up this week.

Bohica on June 27, 2010 at 10:51 PM

@1: word.

And a good strap-on is always worth the investment. If B is reading this, I totally recommend one with a bullet vibe in the base, which will give his clit lots more stimulation from thrusting.
