fashion friends: pull teeth



Is it a skirt? Is it pants? Oh, the tricks these Urban Apparel wide leg trousers play on the mind. There's something so captivating about a design that takes a few seconds to process. Going to the safe option is a guilty habit in most of us, and our closets are full of those pieces that make their way to the back because they're "too risky" or "not wearable," which is just a mental block we create for ourselves. Sometimes all it takes is the introduction of one great piece to make you reevaluate your entire wardrobe. Find that perfect pair of pants that push you out of your comfort zone. Fashion is supposed to be fun! So why make it difficult for yourself? Explore your options. Have fun. Shop freely. My new words to live by.

internet friends (special edition) : ask slutever for IDLM


Have you been craving a new edition of Slutever for IDLM? Karley talks drug usage, manual issues, and kissing cousins. Email her at karleyslutever@gmail.com to ask your own questions. Be sure to check out out all the new developments on Slutever, including her hilarious and informative new show on Vice! 


Dear Slutever,

I’m a fairly heavy heroin user. I’ve been doing it off and on since I was twenty-one (I'm turning thirty in a few months), and have been seriously addicted for the last five years. I do not use needles (I snort it), but my use is a good deal heavier than most junkies I've known. When I have the money I can use up to twenty bags a day, whereas most users hover somewhere in the three to four range. Most of my sexual life has been spent in relationships. From my high school sweetheart on I found myself losing my libido as the relationship progressed, to the point where I would not want sex even though I still found the person in question very sexy, and would even at times masturbate to the thought of a girlfriend perfectly willing to have sex with me.

My last girlfriend did not know I was using drugs and a huge part of our breakup revolved around my refusal to fuck her, even not being able to get it up sometimes. I found her very sexy and wanted to be with her but my libido just dropped off a cliff after the sixth month. I now have gotten down to masturbating about once a week just to release fluids and neither my mind nor body crave sex in the least. I enjoy sex and miss it and wonder if there is any problem with me other than the drug use, and if there is a possibility that I might be able to raise my libido without quitting my vice. 

Alexander
 

Dear Alexander,

Well, heroin use is widely known to decrease libido, specifically in men. I know you are asking me for a way to solve your problem without quitting your vice, but it’s sort of a difficult question considering your vice is the problem. I dated a guy on heroin for a while a few years ago, and his problem was that he could never cum. He wanted to have sex, but then he would go on for ages with no orgasm. And you’d think a guy that could last a long time would be a good thing, but I could tell he wasn’t even enjoying the most of the time--he was mainly just was continuing on out of frustration. Our sex would normally end with me having a neck ache and a dried up, swolen vagina, and him being angry. It was really awful and I don’t know why I did it for as long as I did. The fact is, even if you’re a functioning user and can hide it from girlfriends, you’re going to be a sexual disappointment to the girls you date. Girlfriends like sex (duh) so if you’re choosing heroin over sex, then I can see why girls would dump you. So I guess you have to choose.

My advice would be to quit heroin because heroin sucks. I could go into why, however I feel that is unnecessary given the near infinite information available on the subject. And that guy I was talking about before: he’s in jail now and the last time I saw him he has a bunch of red sores all over his face. No one wants to fuck a prisoner covered in sores. Fact.
 


Dear Slutever, 

I'm 17 and have my first boyfriend (I realize I'm sad, don't worry). We haven't had sex yet which is fine, but the issue is that I can't get him to cum. Like seriously, how hard can it be?! In a panic I tragically had to Google how to give head but I was already doing what the websites told me to, but it just doesn't work on him. Could you give me some tips or even a breakdown of what I should be doing. Maybe hand tips too, seeing as I need mouth breaks from his impossible-to-please dick.   

Kelly 

Dear Kelly,

Communication is totally key in this sort of situation! It’s not weird to ask someone what they want in bed. It would be weird if you were like, “OMG what is wrong with your dick!” but it’s not weird to say, “Tell me what you want me to do... I’ll do whatever you want.” Actually, just saying that will probably turn him on. (Disclaimer: you don’t actually have to do whatever he wants if you don’t want to, but you can say it anyway.) Good communication really does make sex better, I promise, so we should all start talking about sex and what we turns us on and what we love and don’t love with our lovers right now.

In terms of BJ/HJ advice, guys are more visual than girls, so maybe give him some sexy visuals to turn him on, like take your shirt and bra off really slowly or whatever. Also, a good BJ tip (if the guy is lying down on his back) is to get on your hands and knees and place your body perpendicular to his, this way he can look at your entire body while you suck his dick, which is hot. Also if you’re giving a BJ and/or HJ and you want the to finish, it’s important to get into a rhythm with your mouth/hand and not to break from it. So basically at the beginning you can do lots of sexy licking and add in frills or whatever, but at the end just do the same thing over and over. Also, if you’re going through all this trouble for him then he should also be working hard to make you cum too. Just sayin’. Also, just a thought... maybe your bf is gay?




Dear Slutever, 

Last night my family threw a block party. My (female) cousin was in town partying too. I'm 23, she's 17 and insanely hot. Shit got boring because alcohol was in short supply, so the two of us went to my room and play Xbox. I kept killing her and taunting her, and she got (mock) angry and started talking shit back to me. Eventually we settled on a bet: whoever dies next has to masturbate in front of the other person. Then she died. I was super nervous at this point, so I tried to play it off as if we were never serious about it, but she (also really nervous) said a “promise is a promise”. This was fucking awesome for me, because I've been fantasizing about this girl for years. So she was doing it (pants down, but underwear on) and I had the biggest boner I've ever had. I finally worked up the courage to sit closer to her, she kept going, and I leant over and kissed her. And she kissed me back! I felt her boob, she stopped masturbating and started rubbing my cock. Long story short she gave me a blow-job and then we went to our separate rooms. Fucking A. But now she's really upset. She hasn't told anyone what happened, but she's been crying, and asking me why I raped her! WTF! She's saying it's statutory rape even if she did say it was okay, and I'm worried I'm going to be completely fucked (figuratively and literally, once I'm in prison for underage incest sex!). What should I do?


John, NM  

Dear John,

Jeez Louise, you really got yourself into a pickle. Have you seen that movie The Dreamers? Total incest vibes, and there’s a scene in it similar to what you just described, except they never make it to the blow job. You should watch it though, I think you’d be into it. Anyway, I personally don’t think there’s anything wrong with hooking up with your cousin. And I can imagine the “wrongness” aspect of it would make the situation hotter. (And it’s not like it’s your sibling or your mom or something, which even I have to admit is kind of weird.) So, if things went down as you said they did then you are not a rapist. However the problem with fucking 16/17 years olds is that they can always pull the statutory rape card. Selfish little cunts! This is why it’s probably better to not take the risk on the underagers, even though I believe most 17 year olds are completely mentally and physically capable of deciding who they want to fuck with and when. (Why the age of consent in America is 18, I have no clue...) But anyway, my advice is to sit down with your cousin and talk rationally about what happened. Explain that you never meant to hurt her, and that what happened was a result of decisions made by both of you. Talk about how if she started telling people you raped her that you could go to jail for a very long time. Hopefully she’s just a bit overwhelmed right now and will calm down soon. Yikes... :/

X.S.V. x IDLM: BLACK ZEN SPRING 2012



BLACK ZEN is a video editorial directed and written by interdisciplinary artist Xavier Valentine in collaboration with IDLM. The video works as a series of "tableaux vivants" illustrating the idea of ceremony and ritual in daily dress. BLACK ZEN derives inspiration from such films as the HOLY MOUNTAIN, Alejandro Jodorowsky's infamous film steeped in esoteric-ism and ancient rites. The film features pieces from Bond Hardware, SIR New York, Obesity and Speed, Chris Habana, and Luv AJ.
Xavier Valentine's body of work often explores semiotics within the realm of the occult. He seeks to observe correlations of antiquity bearing on our perception, creation, and curation of modern "artifacts". His most recent solo show, in collaboration with R.K. Projects at the Marty and Perry Granoff Centre for the Creative Arts titled ATLAS, was a large scale installation inspired by Roland Barthes' 1977-1978 lecture on neutrality. Xavier applies this attitude of inclusiveness and uncovering of mystery toward his love for fashion. 

INTERNET FRIENDS (SPECIAL EDITION): ASK SLUTEVER for IDLM (PART 6)


Get sexy for the sixth edition of Ask Slutever for IDLM. Karley discusses shape, size, depth, and skill level. Do you have a burning desire to ask a question? Man up! Email her at karleyslutever@gmail.com. Be sure to visit Slutever for daily doses of sexual education. 

Dear Slutever,
I consider myself a sexually open and comfortable person besides the fact that I have elongated labia. To paint a picture, they hang out about an inch or so past my pussy lips when I'm standing upright. I know only a jerk would make a big deal of this, but I can't help but feel insecure when I’m naked with someone else. My insecurity is so blown up it keeps me from enjoying being eaten out. In fact I lie to my partners and say I can only get off when a girl goes down on me (half lie/white lie). Am I too self-focused during sex? Should I focus on what it feels like rather than what it looks like / feels like in their mouth? 
The Bunny Hole

Dear Bunny Hole,
I’m really into long labia, and I’m not just saying that to sound edgy. I know the very neat, slit-type vagina seems to be popular in modern porn, but that doesn’t mean it’s better or “hotter”. Let’s be honest, all vaginas look amazing. Even the bad ones are good ones. Unless it smells gross, guys really don’t care. They’re just happy to be around a vagina in the first place.


Now, I realize it’s easy to stand back and say, “you just shouldn’t worry about it,” when I’m not the one having the problem. However, what’s important to always remember is: everyone only really cares about themselves. You know those times when you think you’re having a bad hair day, or that everyone is laughing at something you said, or that everyone is looking at your zit? Well, 90% of the time no one even notices because they’re too busy thinking about themselves and their own stupid problems. Sad but true. And it’s the same with sex--the guy is probably preoccupied with how his own body looks, and how he’s performing, or if his dicks is big enough or hard enough. Think about it this way: when you fuck someone, do you scrutinize every little part of their body, or do you view them as a whole?


I used to fuck a guy with a crooked penis, and if anything it made me like him more because it became “his thing”, and I thought of it as something distinctive and special about him. Like you know when you really like someone and suddenly all the “weird” things about them become your favorite things? Like a scar, or a birthmark, or a facial twitch, or a crooked tooth or whatever? It’s these little eccentricities that make a person beautiful. (#cheesy)


Dear Slutever,
I just started this thing with a super hot guy who is waaay more experienced than I am, and he says he wants me to dominate him. I have no idea how to do this without feeling dumb! Help? Lauren, Chicago

Dear Lauren,
No fear, domination can be very simple! It doesn’t always have to be over-the-top with whips and chains and ball gags and stuff. Mainly it’s a mental thing. Normally, even in vanilla sex, one partner is more dominant than the other. You just have to put yourself in the position of control. This is going to sound like I’m stating the obvious, but a good trick to work out what exactly turns a person on is to ask them Duh! I use this trick in my Domme sessions all the time. At the start of the session--or sometimes even before, over email--I’ll say “tell me your ultimate fantasy” or “describe your ideal session.” Telling a guy to confess all of his dark kinky secrets is still a dominant act, and it works out double because then you will have a detailed description of what he likes so you can cater to it as much as you want to. Or, if all else fails, just tie him to the bed and sit on his face.

Dear Slutever,
I am SO upset. I just had sex with this guy I'm really into and I like, I could barely feel it! I'm not like fat or very tall and I really shouldn't have a big vagina but I am almost sure I do. This guy is average size, about 6 inches, so it’s definitely not him. But he was really attracted to the fact that I'm smallish and I think he thought I was gonna be really tight. It's so SAD that some girls have big vaginas and some guys have small dicks! It's probably ruined everything!!! I've looked up sex positions and stuff and I realized he tried to clamp my knees together at one point and so now I'm thinking that's obviously why- he was trying to tighten my vagina! I feeelllllsooooshit about it!!! I've always done kegels like just for fun and to stop my pee flow sometimes just randomly and for something to do, but they have obviously not worked! The only time I can feel him is when his tip goes into me at the opening and then when his tip hits my cervix. Have u got any thoughts on this? Other than errrr she's got a big vagina Lol? It’s not like I've had kids, I'm 17!! I kinda wanna die, it made me feel so shit I don’t think I ever wanna have sex again!

OK I’m going to need photographs and exact measurements to accurately answer this question.

Dear Slutever,
I’m 15 and a virgin. I’ve hooked up with a few guys, and I want to go further, but there are some things I’m nervous about. Firstly, I have quite hairy boobs and I’m scared this it’s fucking weird and freaky and that guys will be grossed out! What do I do about them? Also, I’ve masturbated a bit before but never reached orgasm--is that normal?
Nervous Down Under

Slutever Says,
Lots of girls have hair on their boobs--that’s normal. Invest in some tweezers and pluck it out girl! Not an issue.

About jerking off: lots of girls have to practice masturbating, and sometimes it takes a while to learn how to make yourself cum. What happens when you masturbate now? Do you get bored and give up before you orgasm? Sometimes the process just takes a while--like twenty minutes or so--so you have to give yourself time. It sounds obvious, but the more turned on your are, the easier it is to cum. Try looking at something stimulating--porn, a photo you find sexy, etc. Personally, when I’m having a hard time cumming, something that helps is holding my breath. Decreasing the amount of oxygen to your brain makes you feel all giddy and lightheaded, and heightens your sensory pleasures. That’s why erotic aspyxiation is such a big thing--if it didn’t work, there wouldn’t be so many people killing themselves doing it, right? I’m not saying you need to tie a belt around your neck, but next time you’re rubbing your clit, try taking a deep breath and holding it for as long as you can, and see what happens. Also, some girls find it hard to cum using just their hands, so maybe you need some assistance. Make the shower head your best friend. If your shower head isn’t detachable and can’t reach your vagina, another great method is lying down in the bathtub and positioning yourself so that your clit is directly underneath the stream of water coming out of the faucet. The water falling on you feels, like, sooo good. You have to make sure to get the temperature and pressure exactly right though. After all, these are delicate matters.


Dear Slutever,
So I have been seeing this lovely boy for two months now, and he recently confessed that he has always wanted to get fucked with a strap-on. I’ve used toys with guys before, but have never done this. I’m thinking of buying him a strap-on as a surprise. But like, is it insulting to buy a small one? I feel like a big one will hurt. How do I make this the most pleasant experience possible? Is there a right way to go about all this?
Lynn, OR

Slutever Says,
To be honest, I don’t have that much experience with this, but I have had some first hand strap-on lessons from a very skilled Dominatrix, so I will share what I know with you.

So... have you guys tried any anal play before? If you haven't done any basic training then even a small dildo might hurt him. I would suggest buying a dildo that’s very soft, thin (smallest girth possible), and long, so you can adjust the length by putting your hand around the base. You don’t need to give him the whole length, but if you buy a "beginners" type dildo, which is soft, thin and short, it may slip out very easily, making the experience more annoying than fun. Also, make sure you buy a harness that’s adjustable around the waist and legs, this way it will fit you properly, and you will be both comfortable and in control.

Get him ready with your fingers and some lube first. Wear plastic gloves if you want. That may sound surgical and weird, but it also might add to the element of roll play. As for position, doggie style is good for controlling penetration, and it’s also easier for him to lean forward if it starts to hurt. Other than that, the only advice I really have is to take it easy. Since us girls don’t normally hump stuff, our bodies aren’t used to all that aggressive thrusting. The first time I fucked someone with a strap-on was in college. I fucked some drunk girl who kept screaming, “Fuck me with your huge cock!” even though the dildo was really tiny (and hot pink). I threw my back out doing it and could barely walk for four days. Embarrassing?

And one more thing. On the subject of strap-ons, my scary lesbian Dominatrix friend once told me this: “Always remember, ouch is not a safeword and lube is over-rated.” Do with that what you will.

If you're not all hot and bothered from her new film for Purple Television, then take some time to get emotional with Slutever during our ASK SLUTEVER for IDLM series. Send us the most personal of questions and receive guidance. Email her at Karleyslutever@gmail.com. Today Karley addresses betrayal, mom's fudge, and what it REALLY takes to be good in bed.

Dear Slutever,
I'm horribly depressed. I recently found out my boyfriend is cheating on me, the shock still hasn't worn off and I’ve yet to confront him. You're probably reading this thinking I'm a sooky idiot female, which I guess I am, to be honest. We have amazing sex--sex that sends me absolutely insane. I'm beginning to wonder whether I haven't confronted him because I don't want to give up the sex. His mum also makes an insane chocolate fudge cake, so that could also be another reason. Do I confront him, ignore it, let it spill out in a drunken psycho yelling fit, or simply break it off?
Depressed in Australia

Slutever Says:
First of all, you’re not an idiot. Most people in this world have either been cheated on or been the cheater, and that will probably never change because the human race is inherently slutty. Because most of us have the ability to separate sex and love, it means that even if you truly love someone it’s not out of the question that you will make the conscious decision to fuck someone else behind their back at one point or another. That doesn’t necessarily make you a bad person, it just makes you human (i.e. epically flawed).


The thing is, your boyfriend obviously hurt you, which is a problem. If you never agreed to be in an open relationship then sleeping with someone else is grounds for a break up. There are things to think about: did he sleep with someone just one time? Has he slept with lots of other people? Has he been sleeping with a specific person repeatedly? Option three is probably the most serious, because that’s when you enter “emotional cheating” territory, which is the worst kind.What’s important to remember is that monogamy is hard. If two people have a great relationship then I don’t think it should be a deal breaker if someone gets drunk and fucks somebody one night. If your boyfriend needed to fuck another girl it probably has way more to do with his own ego or his sex-crazed man brain than it does with how he feels about you.


The right thing to do is just to talk to him about it. But don’t go in screaming and don’t be drunk when you do it. You have every right to be mad, but screaming won’t solve anything and you need to have a rational conversation. This is probably not the most responsible thing to tell you, but for the sake of honesty I’ll share. A few years ago I found out my boyfriend was cheating on me. I wanted to kill him, but instead I just went out and fucked another guy. Knowing I had fooled around too gave me a sense of mental power, and I felt more confident and less manic when I finally confronted him and recited the pre-planned line "I know you fucked that anorexic skank from LA you illiterate prick." So uh... yeah, I’m not suggesting you should follow my lead on that one. But the point (I think) I’m trying to make is: don’t play the victim. Do what you want, because there are no rules. If you want to forgive him, then forgive him. It’s not embarrassing. If you want to get threesomed by two farmers to get back at him, then I think that’s fair enough. However if you can’t get over his infidelity and you think it will haunt your relationship forever, then you should break it off. There are lots of guys out there who are good in bed who will send you “absolutely insane” with their boners. It’s a mathematical certainty.


Dear Slutever,
I’m 24 and the longest relationship of my life was seven months. I’ve had sex but I don't have much experience with girls and I feel like I’m missing the good techniques it takes to be good in bed! Is sex that difficult? Do I have to do acrobatics in order to be good at sex or do I just have low self-confidence?
Nick, Athens

Slutever Says:
Please, for the love of god, no acrobatics. I’ll make it simple: as a hetero guy, if you want to be good in bed you have to be attentive to the girl and receptive to what turns her on. You know all the screaming orgasms girls have in porn? Yeah, those are fake. Pounding us repeatedly from behind for ten minutes isn’t going to make us cum. Also, we don’t like it when you try to shove it in while we’re still dry. Foreplay is important to us because it takes longer for girls to cum than is does for boys, so you have to rub our boobs and kiss our necks and spank us (maybe?) to allow us time to “get going” or whatever. Some girls can have G-spot orgasms (I hate you), but most of us need clitoral stimulation in order to orgasm. Well, it’s not rocket science but giving a girl head is normally the most efficient way to turn her on, because you can rub your tongue directly onto the part that feels good. Also, please lick lightly. Jeez, it’s not a stamp.


Also, don’t be afraid to ask a girl what she likes. It shows us that you care and it also means we get to tell you exactly what to do without sounding all demanding. And also, “Tell me what feels good” is just a hot sentence, ya know? Sex is hard to fuck up, so don’t over-think it. Like I’ve said before, sex is meant to be clumsy and awkward. Embrace it.

Are you dying for answers of your own? Email her at karleyslutever@gmail.com for next time.


Dear Slutever,
I live in little ol’ New Zealand and go to an all girls Catholic school. I'm 16, half English/half Caribbean, and what some people call 'exotic'. Basically it means I don't look like anyone else around here. It makes me cringe writing it, but a lot of older men seem to be drawn to me. I don't mean gorgeous, 20-something tourists, I mean more like 50-90 year old men. It's gross! Like the first dick I ever saw was a homeless man wanking intensely while staring at me. So what I want to know is, how do you ward off creepy guys without looking like a complete troll?
-Anastasia, NZ


Dear Anastasia,
So wait, the problem is that lots of guys want to fuck you? Bitch, that’s not a problem! One day you will be old with sagging skin and no homeless people will be jerking off to you, and you will resent having been so unappreciative of these generous sexual offerings. Also, I’m just going to put this out there: older guys are better in bed. As someone who has slept with a wide variety of boys/men between the ages of 14 and 53, I can say that with confidence. (The 14 year old was when I was 16, chill.) Boys, as well as girls, get better at sex with age. Boys especially, since for some reason young guys think it’s OK not to give girls head in return for the endless BJs we give them, which it is not!! But thankfully, as men age, they begin to understand that it takes more than just ramming the P in the V repeatedly for four minutes to make a girl cum. Seriously, fuck someone with a child and/or a mortgage and you’ll see what I mean.

And before I shut up I’m going to give you one more (very important) piece of advice: SEX IS POWER. The faster and better you understand this, the most successful you will be in all aspects of your life. I just read a good interview on slate.com with a woman named Catherine Hakim, author of Erotic Capital: The Power of Attraction in the Boardroom and the Bedroom. HERE she talks about how being a babe is just as valuable a form of capital as anything else, and that those who subscribe to the dated feminist idea that women shouldn’t try to be “hot”, and that beauty is superficial and has no value, are actually just fucking themselves over. Basically, use what you’ve got.


Dear Slutever,
Despite general society seemingly to have developed an attraction for nerdy, socially awkward, and somewhat unattractive guys now, I find being a nerdy, socially awkward, and somewhat unattractive guy to be quite distressing. For one, I have no friends, and thus no social life, and walking around by myself at lunch really sucks. All because I'm shy as fuck! Also I feel really self-conscious around girls. How can I get a life and not be quite so nerdy, socially awkward and somewhat unattractive?
Scott, CT


Dear Scott,
This depends on what type of nerd you are. Are you a smart, science nerd? If so, you can be as socially awkward as you want, because that goes with the overall aesthetic. My advice to you is to suck it up, study hard, and I promise that after high school, AKA when the real world begins and people start valuing intelligence over how far you can kick a ball or whatever, you will have more friends and girls wanting to sleep with you than you could ever imagine. However if this is not the case and you are in fact the bad kind of nerd, i.e. just socially awkward with no redeeming qualities to tip the scale, then for Christ’s sake, get good at something! People want to fuck people who are good at stuff: fact. The people in this world with sexual power rarely have it solely because of their looks; it’s because they are exceptional. Defs no one would want to sleep with Wes Anderson or Seth Rogen if their only contributions to the world were working at Starbucks. Joey Ramone and Janis Joplin were legit monsters, but they were geniuses and therefore could fuck and/or friend whoever they wanted. Now go, carpe the diem!


Dear Slutever,
I recently turned eighteen and I'm increasingly wondering whether I should cure myself of a
quite serious case of virginity. I've been offered sex in the past but I've always said no. My question is, should I wait until I'm going out with a girl who I really like before engaging in coit, or just leap on the next girl who can stand to have sex with me? Thanks!
Sparrow


Dear Sparrow,
This seems to be an issue for a lot of people. My answer to this is simple: THERE ARE NO RULES. People put too much emphasis on what should and should not be done regarding sex, when really the only answer is to just do what feels right. Do you want to have sex with a random girl? If so, then you should. Would you prefer to wait and sleep with someone you love, but feel pressured by social norms to lose your virginity before going to college? If that’s the case, go with your gut and wait. I understand that this answer is neither funny nor witty, but sometimes we need to remind ourselves that most seemingly difficult questions have the simplest of answers.

ASK SLUTEVER for IDLM: ROUND DEUX

Our orgasmic tutor, blogger Karley Sciortino aka Slutever, is back for round two of ASK SLUTEVER  for IDLM. Today we are serving some sexual ambiguity and lessons in self control. Want to get in on it next time? Email her at karleyslutever@gmail.com and spill!



Q1: I'm into trying new things, especially regarding sex. So far I've only sexed men, but I’m interested in trying out lady sex and threesomes, however I’m not sure how to go about it. Like how do I know if a girl is into other girls? How do other girls know that I’m bi? But then again, I don’t even know if I’m bisexual yet. What if I try it and it's not my thing? I guess I've been waiting for it to "just happen", but it hasn't yet and I feel weird about perving on every girl I'm attracted to. How do I go about touching a boob that isn’t mine?
Veronica, SC

SLUTEVER SAYS: All girls are into girls (well, like 99%). That’s what’s so cool about us females: we are extremely open-minded and sexually free and we love each other and each other’s bodies like they were our own. Girls as a whole are far more sexually fluid and emotionally advanced than men, who tend to choose either gay or straight and stick with it. Poor boys and their simple brains!

So, you want to know how to tell if a girl is into you? Well, it’s the same way that you tell if a guy is, duh! It’s all about eye contact, smiling, light touching—the way boys and girls flirt and express desire is basically the same. If you think a girl is hot, tell her! If she gets flirty back, she probably wants your private parts in her mouth. If she doesn’t, you can play it off like you were just being casually complimentary, like a “Hey gurl, I like your shoes” kind of thing. #NBD

Now about group sex: you are single, which means you’re in a very good position right now. I know way more couples looking for girls to join them in bed than I do single girls looking for threesomes. You’re a rarity! Also, having a threesome with a couple is SO hot because you are new and exciting to them which means you get most of the attention. I have been both the girlfriend and the “other girl” in a threesome situation, and although both are great it’s sort of more fun to get the special treatment. The most extreme case of that for me was a few years ago in Athens. I was in a club and this random Greek woman started dancing with me and getting all touchy feely. Eventually she dragged me to the bathroom and started going down on me, and then she brought me to a weird back room of the bar that was empty—I think maybe she worked there--and brought her boyfriend too, and they both took off my clothes and started fingering me and groping me and spanking me and like shoving their fingers in my mouth and stuff. All while screaming at me in Greek. Then she forced me to suck her bf’s dick for a while, and she kept slapping my vagina for some reason. It was weird but also hot, even though they were both in their late 30s and not very attractive. Weirdly that kind of made it hotter because it felt like these gross weirdoes were just using me and there was nothing I could do about it. It was their toy, ya know? But like they spoke NO English which made the situation so strange because they were constantly talking and I was just like, uh... what? Like to give you an idea of how much communication there was, the woman was originally from Cuba and we eventually realized that I spoke better Spanish than she did English, so from then on we only communicated in Spanish. And like, I don’t speak Spanish. (P.S. I never blogged about that because I had a boyfriend at the time—woops.)

But back to you. So, if none of that other stuff works, I have a no fail plan. Find a girlfriend of yours who wants to have a threesome too, and go out with her to a bar/party/wherever, and hit on guys together. Remember to say things in unison--stuff like “we think you’re really hot,” and “do you want to make out with us?” The guy will literally die.

Q2: There is this bartender at my favorite club who is amazingly beautiful and beyond cool. He always says I'm pretty and he asked for my number once, BUT THEN HE NEVER TEXTS ME! He is so elusive and there is never a right moment to make a move, and I don't know how to pursue him without looking like a psycho/whore. He does things like kiss me on the face, and he gives me free drinks, but he hardly ever replies to my drunk texts--texts that are funny and intelligent! I want him so badly and I've already done the whole being straightforward thing. He never says no, but nothing ever happens.
What do I do?

SLUTEVER SAYS: OK, first of all, drunk texts are not hot. We are all guilty of sending the odd drunken sext but we all need to stop this RIGHT NOW! Do you like getting creepy, overly horny texts from dudes at 3am? No, so don’t be that person. It makes you seem desperate. If you want to ask a guy out, the way to do it is to send a controlled, to-the-point daytime text. Saying something like “Would you like to hang out with me on Friday night?” at 4pm on a Wednesday makes you seem super cool and confident, like you just casually thought of him while food shopping and decided to send him that text without even really thinking about it. If he doesn’t respond, it doesn’t even matter because you were busy doing important daytime things and probably forgot anyway.

Also, there’s always the possibility that he’s gay. I mean, kisses on the face?? That sounds gay to me. Whenever I get rejected by a guy I always automatically assume he’s gay. That might be narcissistic of me but it has saved me from a large amount of sadness and shame, so I think I’ll stick with it.
