While sex with one person for an indefinite amount of time works for some, for others it can feel unnatural. Relationships can fall on a spectrum. Create an arrangement that provides the comfort of commitment, while still enjoying your freedoms.
V's Take
You’re still a virgin?
It’s my freshman year of college and I’m still a virgin. It’s not like I’ve avoided sex, but it just wasn’t one of my prioirities. Sex doesn’t even seem like a big deal to me. I just don’t want to be judged. What should I do?

White gays, we need to talk…
This is personal. This is political. This is me writing not as a journalist or an editor, but as a black, queer woman who is tired. So, without further ado, white gays, let’s chat.

It’s only right to fall in love twice
Some people may think it’s an ignorant thing to say or think, but I believe that we only fall in love once. If a person can fall in love more than 10 times, then what is so special about it?
V's Take
So this is love?
I despise when “love” is thrown around too loosely. If you think you truly loved someone who you sometimes forget exists, you never loved them. You may have thought you loved your ex-boyfriend from high school or that girl who sucked your dick because you felt sad, but you just really liked them.

Quarantine blues
I am constantly surrounded by my friends and loved ones. Well, I used to be until the coronavirus decided to literally ruin everything. The lack of partying, physically attending classes, and seeing my favorite people around the clock has forced me to face the dreadful loneliness I feel inside. How do I manage without my usual distractions?

“Do you ever dream of people you used to be friends with?” she asked me between bites of asian cuisine.
