These columns are overwhelmingly written by uncreative girls who have modeled their personalities and lifestyles after Carrie Bradshaw from “Sex And The City”—right down to the slang, the clothes and, apparently, writing a ludicrous sex column.

Ditto here. Too bad that The Cavalier Daily at UVA devotes an entire page to “health and sexuality” instead of actual news.

Absolutely. Obama’s head will explode when his approval rating hits 15%. Of course he'll nationalize polling organizations to prevent that from happening.

There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: the fashionable non-conformist.

Forgive me, O Lord, for the truth I am about to speak:

Regarding campus sex, those who can, do. Those who can’t (nobody like a FemiNazi chick), don’t - and write voluminously about it.

I’m not sure 15% is low enough. Olmert proved in Israel liberals can take their approval into single digits and keep on lying.

The Foxnews.com homepage has that awful "Sexpert" column. ON IT'S HOME PAGE!

The latest article was all about vibrators and how they're not just for her any more.
