Ernessa says: I thought for a long time I would choose INCEPTION, because it’s truly a spectacular feat of writing and directing that audiences would come out of that movie saying, “It was so different and confusing” when in actuality we had been spoon-fed the plot and the fact that we understood the question presented [...]

Ernessa says: The nice thing about being a published author is that it’s considered bad form to talk ish about other writers in a public forum. Because of this, if I found myself not enjoying a book during my 52 Books in 52 Weeks project, I put it down and went on to the next [...]

Yay, we’ve come down to my favorite time of the year, when chins hit chests and we spend a week pr two firmly gazing at our navels. Over the course of the next two weeks on FaN, we’ll be weighing in on our favorite books, movies, music, TV shows, and moments of the soon-to-be former [...]

Dear Dr. Miro, How do I know if I’ve had an orgasm? Sincerely, Juana Gnogh Dear JG, Ah, wondering whether you have experienced La Petit Mort, or the Little Death, as the French call it, eh? To those who have had the privilege of coming, either once, or on a regular basis, it sounds a [...]

What is sploshing, and should I be concerned? Respectfully, Very Nervous Dear VN, Sploshing is a Wet And Messy (WAM) [...]

Dear Dr. Miro, I have no desire to have sex with anyone. I’m actually pretty happy with the way I am with no sexual urges or fantasies and feel like I have always been this way.  I get told by my friends, “This is impossible!” and “You must be in denial.” I have looked up [...]

Dear Dr. Miro, My girlfriend won’t kiss me. Eight years ago, when we first started dating, we were all over each other and now all she wants is for me to go down on her with a dildo, sometimes. She just barely touches me and this is making me way upset and it’s also making [...]

Dear Dr. Miro, About 7 months ago, my ex-boyfriend told me I gave him genital warts. When I went to get tested, I was told that I did not have any warty craziness. Every time I hear anything mentioned about STDs, I get frightened. I have taken so many tests at clinics and they always [...]
