Speedy answers to selected questions from students at Radford University
Published: October 3, 2012
Q:
Can you come out your butt?
A:
Um, sure, but only if someone else came in it first — and no one should be coming in your butt without a condom on his dick.
Q:
How do you tell someone that they are bad at sex?
A:
You don't. You tell someone that there are particular ways you like to be touched, kissed, fucked, bound or whatever and you encourage someone to touch, kiss, fuck, whip or bind you in those particular ways. Hopefully this will lead to someone getting better at sex over a few months. If someone doesn't get better at sex in that time frame, well, then someone either is incapable of getting better at sex or doesn't care that you're unhappy with the sex, and it's time to dump someone.
Q:
Can you get a yeast infection from licking a yeast infection?
A:
Another stumper, another guest expert: "Wet folds are a great place for yeast to grow," says Dr. Anna Kaminski, associate medical director for Planned Parenthood of the Great Northwest, "especially if other things are a little out of balance. For example, a woman might be more prone to yeast infections due to other things in the vagina — spermicide, blood, antibiotic-induced changes in vaginal pH balance, or hormonal changes. But mouths are really good at keeping yeast in check. So it would be unusual for a person to get a yeast infection orally — unless you suffer from something that predisposes you to oral yeast infections, e.g., you are on antibiotics, you are immunocompromised, you have bad oral hygiene."
Q:
If a guy asks a girl if she wants to have anal sex, is he curious about gay sex?
A:
No.
Q:
Why do straight guys like doggie-style so much?
A:
Because they're gay.
Q:
What does it mean when you're a girl and the guy you're hooking up with keeps introducing you to his best girl friends?
A:
It means you're hooking up with a gay.
OK, Radford, that was fun, but we're out of room. Thanks for the invite and the great event!
