  • I want to know why my boyfriend always talks about his ex-girlfriend. I have brought the issue up and he tells me that he is just making conversation and letting me know about him, because that is his past and that is what has made him, him. I kinda accepted that, but this morning, we were about to have sex and he brought up a story telling me about the two of them having sex. That kinda killed the mood for me. Anyway, when he talks about her, he's always talking how slim, how beautiful, etc. she is and this makes me feel VERY self conscious as if I am not beautiful enough. I would like to know why he may be doing this!!

    Stupidity. On the other hand lots of guys hint to the girl when they'd like her to lose a couple of pounds. (Don't get me wrong - I'm not condoning this.) So are you overweight? Maybe you could use you're frustration with him to do something about your figure. Then when you're slim and in shape you could dump his dumb ass. On the other hand, you could slap him silly NOW until he understands that you're not going to tolerate his thoughtlessness....

  • I have been with my boyfriend for over two years. He's both black and white (his mother is black, father is white). His previous girlfriend bugged him about the size of his penis (which is definitely not small!) He becomes so uncomfortable about it we can't have sex. He believes he can't satisfy me, and although he's not my first he satisfies me even more then any of the others. I tell him repeatedly that he is a great lover and he more then satisfies me. This doesn't suffice. Please, this is the man I want to be with. What can I do?!

    Why don't you develop an interest in porno movies. Go out and get a bunch. Watch them when he's not around, and identify the ones where the porn star guy has a smaller tool then your man. Throw the rest away (unless you find a couple you like :-) Then play those "tiny tool" pornos when he IS around and point out how big his dong is compared to the porn star dude's. If that doesn't work, go get a good shrink.

  • I know you're a man and you take up for men, but I'm dying to read what your take will be on this one -- true story: there are two men I know who are roommates. One is a bouncer and one's a lawyer. The lawyer is extremely good looking but is homosexual. He is in love with his bouncer roommate but pretends to be interested in women. So doing, he lures the women back to his house and his roommate the bouncer rapes them. This has happened in a serial kind of way to more than 3 women so far. I was one of them. I've reported them to the police, but the lawyer defended his love, lied for him and is continuing to lure meat to the house to feed his beloved beast. Evidence is mounting and I predict an arrest of both of them soon. Ever heard of a case like that before?
    - Karen, Age 32 from Georgia

    Life has a way of paying people back. Sounds like these two losers are already standing in line.

  • What percentage of men have intercourse during menstruation?
    - Franklin

    Men menstruate? What was is like growing up in your house? (kidding) Um, this really depends on a number of factors. First of all, if the dude hasn't been laid in a while, he might be more likely to take the plunge while "the uncle is visiting". Age and a number of other factors can also influence a person's choice in that area including how sexy the girl is. I'm not into the "menstruation sex" thing myself, but if it was with my dream woman, I'd have a harder time saying 'no'.

  • I just got another job... exotic dancing. I want to tell some of my friends but I'm not sure. I think maybe if I didn't say anything to them I would just see them in there one night and it would be a very weird experience. What do I do??
    - Rachel, Age 19 from California

    You poor thing! No one to help you with this problem. I guess I can't really help you either since I haven't seen your act. I suppose you could come over here every night for a month or two so I can get a good look at what you do. Then I'd be in a much better position to help you. Consider it a favor. No need to thank me, I'm just a nice guy. Actually, I suggest you tell a couple of key friends and ask them NOT to go to that club. If they walked in and saw you it would be really weird and you don't want to get an unjustified reputation. Anyway, be careful. There's all kinds of ways for a 19 year old to get in trouble doing that line of work.

  • Is it true the older a man gets the less sex drive he has?
    - Lisa, Age 40 from New York

    Nope. That's just what some men tell their wives after having sex for the 5000th time. You need to find ways to make things interesting again.

  • I met this girl on the internet. When we met, we were crazy about each other. Now her Mom doesn't like me. She doesn't allow me to see, talk to or have anything to do with her daughter. What do I do now?
    - Dull, Age 18 from Washington

    Shave, get a hair cut, loose the baggy jeans, stop calling people 'dog' and above all else treat the mom with absolute respect no matter what she says to or about you. Somehow she got it into her head that you're a loser. You have to prove her wrong. On the other hand, if you are a loser, you're pretty much out of options.

  • Hi Man. I have a friend who I am liking more and more each day. He calls me everyday and we meet after work most of the time. We're just friends but the fact that he is still close to his ex is becoming a scarier idea to me everyday. I broke off the friendship yesterday because the jealousy is killing me and I don't want to tell him how I really feel. We're both christians and we've both become aware and admitted our attraction to each other which is one reason why the relationship has become more tense or intense. Did I do the right thing in breaking our friendship?
    - Kristi, Age 32 from Georgia

    This is one of those 'logic moments' that guys have from time to time. So let me get this straight: you somehow reasoned that getting rid of this guy would keep you from losing him. Do I understand that right? Do you remember that game 'red light green light' from when you were a kid? Did you have trouble with that concept by any chance? I suggest you lay it out for him and see what happens. Either you get what you want or you end up right where you are now anyway.

  • I been talking on line with this guy for 9 months now. We even talked on the phone one time. we are to meet soon and I, weirdly enough, have a crush on him. If he's all he's been all this time, I would really like to sleep with him. My fear though is that he'll think I'm a slut for sleeping with him so early. I'm a virgin and never been kissed btw. I never dated anyone really even though I've been told to be a very pretty girl. He's sorta the only man I ever really fancied. I'm a bit too hard to get I suppose.. What do I do?
    - Kate, Age 20 from Ireland

    Don't plan on sleeping with him on the first time. What's the hurry? Beside, you might not like him in person. Phone and in person are two very different things. If you really like him, then make him wait a little. He won't mind. If he does, get rid of him.

  • I just recently went out with this guy, whom I really like. I have heard that he really likes me too! When we went out for the first time, which was just a little bite to eat due to lack of time, we had a great time! When he dropped me off he didn't ask for my number or anything. I will see him in again in 2 days but, do you think this is normal or do you think this was just a nice way to say lets just be friends? Thanks for everything!! 
    - Bella, Age 22 from Florida

    I wouldn't read too much into that. I have done the same thing myself. If he knows he's going to see you again then there may be no urgency. On the other hand, I have also not asked for a girls number on purpose from time to time. This is one of those 'wait and see' scenarios. All you can do is wait and see what he does.

  • All right. Here it is. I'm asking YOU, of all people...When I was younger I was H-O-T. I got so much attention from men that it got irritating. I still get quite a bit now that I'm 30, but I am going through this REALLY hard time about getting older. I'm still slim and pretty but you know... gravity and a few wrinkles and I don't even know how I'm supposed to DRESS anymore. I want my confidence back - and a few weeks ago you wrote that guys take longer to orgasm when they're older partly because women get less attractive.. UGH. That was a killer. Tell me - can a thirty year old be a hottie, or should I just stop thinking its possible and stock up on track pants?
    - Nancy, Age 30 from Canada

    Did I say that?? Funny. Anyway it would really help from time to time if you guys sent a picture or two for The Man's evaluation... So here's the deal: If you're a hottie at 30 then you're better off then a lot of women. The funny thing I've noticed about life is that the tables have turned as I've gotten older (I'm 31). I'm much more pursued now then I ever was at 20 and I'm also much more discriminating. On the other hand it's getting hard and harder for me to date young women. I'd still do it if the circumstances were right, but somehow it breaks my heart to think I'm getting too old for all those beautiful young women out there. Such is life. I guess we're all getting a little older.

  • My boyfriend never wants to do anything anymore like a blowjob or things like that. He's been getting high and all he wants to do is sit around and stare at the ceiling!! it really annoys me and I really need something that he can't resist. What kinds of things could I do to him to totally turn him on and get him begging for a blowjob??

  • I've been with this girl for about a week. A lot of people say that she is a "GUTTER SLUT" but she doesn't make any sexual advances when we are alone.
    - Spoon, Age 18 from Ohio

    Don't believe everything you hear. On the other hand, what are you after? If you're waiting just for sex then that would make you the slut, right? If you like her, just be cool and things will happen eventually.
