photo by methTICALman Ah, college. The beer pong, the all-nighters, the walks of shame, the pillow over your head so you can’t hear your roommate’s drunken hook-up… Well, Tufts University has gone and ruined the last of these fond memories. A new campus policy is meant to deal with an issue that was previously managed […]
Yesterday our first weekly column appeared in Metro, the 6th largest circulated newspaper in the U.S., with an audience of more than 1.2 million daily readers in New York, Boston, and Philadelphia. If you’re outside these three cities or missed us on your morning commute, we’ll be reprinting our how-to column, unabridged, every Wednesday. This week’s […]
photo by Southern_Foodways_Alliance Okay, so it’s technically two words, but “Phrase of the Week” just doesn’t roll off the tongue in quite the same way. Anyway, “Schrodinger’s Date” is something that feels kind of like a date but may be more accurately described as a period of hanging out as a prelude to fucking. Even […]
photo by Harlequeen Advice from three of our guy friends. This week a straight woman asks, “What do men in general think about cougars?” Gay Single Guy (Jay Dyckman): “I am Cougar, hear me roar, In years too big to ignore…” If it isn’t already, this should be the anthem for the beloved cougar. Prowl […]
Our contributor is a student at an East coast university. And that’s all she’s willing to say. Except this… There’s something about the heat of the summer sun that makes everyone a little more frisky, a little more excited, a little more promiscuous — it’s the season of bathing suits, little clothing, late-night dates, sex […]
photo by demi-brooke Actually, the term we prefer is “play d’oh!” (exclamation mark optional). A few of our favorites: Bleating “I love you” on a one-night stand, right as you climax. Crying right after you climax (especially common after ex sex). Accidentally drunk-dialing your boss’s cellphone instead of your ex’s — and tuning out during […]
In their hook up issue (Jul 2-8, 2009), Time Out New York launched a new sex and dating section. One fun feature you can access online is called “One-Night-Stand Confessions” where New Yorkers reveal one thing they’ve always wanted to tell a past fling. This being the age of Twitter, these revelations aren’t eloquent personal […]
photo by robstephaustralia Playdar is the casual sex equivalent of gaydar: when your sixth sense tells you that the person you’re dry-humping on the dance floor will be more than amenable to your dirty suggestion, whether that’s joining you and your partner for a threeway, dressing up in a leotard and leg warmers and riding […]
photo by kennymatic The Fucksimile: Someone you sleep with simply because they remind you of (or are as close as you’ll ever get to) someone you really want to sleep with. Little lambs, this will only lead to heartbreak. The Donna: Someone who acts as if a roll in the hay with them were season-finale […]
photo by rileyroxx Our contributor Ryan, who blogs at Student Loans for Beer Money, has a confession to make: I learned a lot of tough lessons my first year of college. For instance, cucumbers aren’t the only things that can be pickled (thanks to maniacal levels of on-campus alcohol consumption). And, more importantly, having a […]
photo by quaziefoto Where would this blog be without all the scientists who study why we do the things we do in bed? They’ve debunked the beer goggles theory, taught us that even cheaters’ guilt is selfish, and confirmed Paula Abdul’s hypothesis that opposites attract. And the latest breaking news from the lab? Not all […]

Each week, our dream analyst Lauri Loewenberg tells one lucky reader what their dirty dream means (after the jump). This week, a woman asks Lauri: To start you must know the characters in my dream, there were only two… me and my […]
photo by jeroen_bennink Dear Em & Lo, I met this guy who is really sweet and nice. He is 20 and I am 21. We’ve hung out a few times and I am starting to like him. Then, I saw him at a fraternity party the other night (although he does not go to my […]
Dear Em & Lo, For the past two weeks I have been sleeping with a guy I met here at college. The boundaries of our relationship have been well-established: late night phone calls for no-strings-attached sex. Nevertheless, I want to keep this thing going. However the last time we were together I had one […]
Other people’s dreams are never interesting…except when they’re about sex. Each week, our dream analyst Lauri Loewenberg tells one lucky reader what their dirty dream means (after the jump). This week, a woman asks Lauri: I had this really weird dream where I was in a huge mansion with tons of girls and only 4 […]
