Q I accidentally discovered that my son-in-law is into BDSM sex as a dominant. A few weeks ago he was holding one of my dog’s leashes and tried to stop my dog (a docile 13-year-old golden retriever) from running up to another dog by violently yanking on the leash. My 65-pound dog was violently spun around with a loud snap.

I didn’t tell my daughter that I had snooped in their home and found his ligatures and spanking porn. I told her that she should talk to someone about it and said that I wouldn’t tell her mother. She eventually told her herself, and I was forced to explain my reasoning and the source of my knowledge to my wife. I feel that getting pleasure out of causing another person pain and humiliation is not an acceptable form of behavior. Now my daughter and son-in-law aren’t speaking to me. I don’t ever want to see him again but would like to salvage my relationship with my daughter. Any advice? —Distressed and Depressed
Q I’m a 27-year-old female, single, with an active dating and sex life. I find that I really enjoy sex while high, both for its ability to help me lose my inhibitions and for the way it makes me feel physically. The problem is that while marijuana works well as a social lubricant, it leaves my mouth bone-dry—which is in no way conducive to giving a good blow job. Water barely works at all to solve this problem. How can I continue to smoke presex and still drum up enough saliva for a good blow? —Blowing Smoke
While it’s unfortunate that seeing your son-in-law with a leash in his hand conjured up some rather upsetting mental images—like, oh, your daughter being “snapped back” by a quick tug on a leash—those mental images are, again, your own damn fault, DAD, and you’re going to have to take some responsibility for ’em.
