NEW YORK – In a recent column for Glamour, sex therapist Emily Morse responded to a letter from a reader who said she’d like to talk dirty in bed but doesn’t want to “sound like a porn star” when doing so. “I have no idea how to talk dirty,” wrote “Marci,” a...

LAS VEGAS – It’s been a rough week for Kevin Hart, whose most famous movie may now be a too-dark, shaky short film shot in not-so-glamorous Las Vegas locations. I thought about sitting down to write a sober, sympathetic post about how extortion is always wrong, two wrongs don’t...

LOS ANGELES – I learned several things in reading a recent Glamour article about the unfortunate demise of the BBW Performer of the Year AVN Award – including the fact there’s such a thing as a “prestigious” porn awards show, apparently. More importantly, I learned if you want to...

LONDON – When it comes to advice columns, self-help books or drunken uncles dispensing their hard-earned wisdom at a family gathering, I have only one requirement, just a single hurdle these sources of guidance must clear if they expect me to pay attention: They must tell me...

LONDON – It’s the sort of headline that makes even a jaded, apathetic, nearly-inert fellow like me leap off the couch and shriek “Oh my god, no!” Which headline, you ask? Why “Aliens living on nine planets outside the solar system could be watching us RIGHT NOW, scientists warn,”...
