QI have to say I’m disappointed.Proposition 8 passed in California, as did anti-gay-marriage amendments in Florida and Arizona. Decency and compassion suffered a horrible blow, and I was hoping to hear a few words from you about it. Some inspiration before I took off from work to go and protest the Mormon Church. Maybe you had your column written already, but couldn’t you have pulled an all-nighter in order to write something more relevant? —A Loyal Reader

But let’s look on the bright side of the anti-gay-marriage amendments, shall we? The openly Republican governor of Florida, Charlie Crist—who got engaged to a real live girl when he was in the running to be McCain’s VP—won’t have to marry a real live girl now. Because it’s illegal for gays to get married now in Florida—right, Charlie? And even in California there’s a little good news: voters approved this year’s anti-gay-marriage amendment by much smaller margins (52 to 48) than they approved an anti-gay-marriage law back in 2000 (61 to 38). So… uh… we’re winning, even as we’re losing.
Or something.
QI hope you can help. My boyfriend gets home from Afghanistan next week, and I want to surprise him with anal. I can’t find anything online about preparing for it. I don’t want to be messy. It’s always clean in porn videos. Please advise. —Desperate
QI have a question of a more medical nature for you. My husband and I have been married four months, both virgins at the time of marriage. We have sex three or four times a week and always use lube. The problem is that sex is very painful for me. On my back or from behind is uncomfortable, but tolerable. Me on top is unbearable. My husband is aware, and sensitive, to this issue. He makes sure I’m relaxed and will change positions or stop when I ask. Will it get any better? I want to have sex without any hesitation. —Painful Intercourse Needs to Stop
