The problem is clear. — There is a crisis in this country when it comes to sex education and related healthcare services. Everyone should have equal, informative, accurate access to all of the above regardless of what state they’re living in, but they don’t. There are 114 Planned Parenthood centers in California and none in…

Where does my life go from here? — “Caitlin, you have to look over our vows after we each write them. I need you to make sure they match.” I smiled at my best friend who was smiling at her fiancé. Her fiancé, how weird to say. They’d been engaged for a while and together forever, but still…

She was scandalized but also intrigued. — I am definitely not the child my mom imagined having. She got married and had three kids by the time she was 30. I’m 32, polyamorous, and a sex party enthusiast. A lot of the time, she has no idea what to make of me. One of the first times…

At first, I was scared to go alone, but now I’m so glad I did. — In late 2018 I went to my first sex party, and I was hooked. I was nervous going into it because I didn’t know what to expect, but after experiencing it just once, I knew the scene was meant for me. I attended a handful of parties throughout 2019, all…

Some possible answers to an impossible question. — I’ve been out of college for over eight years now, and I don’t make enough. What is enough? Lately, the concept has consumed me. …

Use your skills wisely. — When I’m talking about sex with my cis female friends, how to give good blowjobs is often at the top of the conversation list. A lot of women find it a hard art to master or really don’t like doing it. For me, though, that’s never been the case. I…
