Defining the buddy system

My first column of the year, addressing the students' encounters with relationship life at the University, received much acclaim from the student body.

The no 'O' uh-oh

Anyone who has seen the famous orgasm-over-lunch scene in "When Harry Met Sally" has some idea of what an orgasm sounds like -- a lot of moaning and ooh-ah-ing and some throaty screams -- but anyone familiar with the context of that famous scene also knows that Sally was faking.

Your Dild-ego

As most of us have already noticed, the University apparently decided to direct our sexual attention to dorm rooms, as a suspiciously disproportionate number of dorms have been named after reproductive anatomy (Johnson, Woody, Peters, Gooch). I am just waiting for the day a first year finds out she has been assigned to live in "338 Breastisis." Aside from the hilarious truth that there's a caboodle of wealthy University alumni with publicized names like "Cocke," there is another subtle irony in having a plethora of buildings named after phalluses -- that is, we are not publicly exploitative of our sexuality.

Welcome (back) to your sex life at The University

Welcome to the anxious and sadly, (depending on who you ask), innocent first years incessantly making themselves available to be beguiled by U.Va.'s un-finest. Welcome back to the distraught and distressed upperclassmen and women who are still feeling the absence of that summer fling or graduation of that oh-so-caring fourth year. Welcome to all those who saw the summer obliterate or, more likely, cut short (again, depending on who you ask) their long-term relationship or dreamful short-term fling. And welcome to all those who I missed.

Of Mice and Scientists

Guys, get a clue: It's all about the Lucky Charms

Girls lust for romance likeguys lust for sex. The truth is that sex and romance are comparable in that neither is meant to be random and meaningless. When I asked my friend Marcus what he thought would be a romantic gesture, he looked blank and after a moment's thought replied hesitantly, "to have a sixth toe?" Upon seeing that he had left me utterly speechless in a stupor of disappointment, he quickly turned his concentration back to the puerile battle between his fork and macaroni. Guys just don't have a clue. Reciting Shakespeare in the light of the moon is not romantic.
