The chemistry that brews between lovers during the summer has been the fodder for an endless number of novels, songs and cinema. The magic of getting lost in another person and breathing new passion into a slow summer has roots in real life, but also in expectations that bud from Hollywood dreams.
It’s here: February 14th has made its dreaded return. Couples are sprouting like flowers in the Spring, and girls everywhere are preparing to DTR (define the relationship) with their significant other—most of whom are blissfully unaware that they are about to be hit with this fateful discuss…
First dates can be daunting. They are the first impression for a potential relationship; what happens can determine how interested both parties are in pursuing the relationship. It establishes expectations for what the relationship should feel like in the future. Where you take your date is …
As I begin to doze into a semi-inappropriate bout of public sleep on a bus ride home from school, an event that is too common in my busy undergraduate life, I’m interrupted. Chiiiing! Snapchat from Martin. Who the heck — oh, Martin. Tall, dark and handsome, Martin couldn’t be any more my typ…
What’s the secret to dirty talk? I keep repeating myself and it might be getting repetitive and not-so-flirty.–Bad Dirty Talk
Imagine pulling up the list of the highest-grossing box office films of the week, or even the year, and seeing a title like Deep Throat in the top 20. Imagine that the first ever VHS tape your parents owned (and that was ever created) was of an adult film. This is exactly how the world was i…
I was watching He’s Just Not That Into You, one of my favorite rom-coms, the other day. As I watched Bradley Cooper heatedly rip Scarlett Johansson’s dress straps off her shoulders and lay her down on his office desk, I found myself asking: Isn’t he a little old? After a quick Google search …
My boyfriend keeps dropping hints that he wants to move in together after we graduate, with not-so-subtle things like “I wish you didn’t have roommates and it was just you and me,” or saying that the two of us should move to Missouri (where his family lives). We’ve been together for years, b…
“I’m losing faith in the boys on campus. I have yet to find a guy who is interested in being more than a friend without just ‘hooking up,’ and I’m not quite sure what to do anymore. I’ve had crushes and interests but they’ve all fallen flat because I’m not into having casual sex with them.” …
How do you make sure the person you’re having sex with doesn’t later accuse you of sexual assault? If they can claim months after sex that they didn’t actually consent (even though they were obviously into it the whole time), aren’t you kind of screwed? (no pun intended).-Dude Process McGee
The University of Oregon LGBTQA3 hosted Queerpocalypse at the EMU Ballroom in Eugene, Oregon on February 21st, 2016. Queerpocalypse featured many types of performances including lip syncing and contemporary dance. Performers dressed in eye catching costumes that wowed the audiences. UO LGBTA…
How do you handle not being able to climax during a session in which your partner has multiple orgasms? – Blessing and a curse
Next Tuesday a certified clinical sexologist will visit the University of Oregon to address “the art of cunnilingus.”
Starting today, the University Health Center will be providing students with Valentine’s Day “goodie bags” in an effort to promote sexual health and wellness. On Wednesday and Thursday of this week, students can attend the tabling event at the EMU between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. to build personal…
“I want to be in a relationship so much, but I never have been. I just don’t know what to do or how anything works, and being shy doesn’t help. What do I do?” – April Showers
Taylor,I’ve been sleeping with this guy for the last 6 months on and off. He keeps saying its just sex but when we are together it doesn’t feel like “just sex.” I’m sick of not knowing where we stand, but every time I bring it up he says I’m too clingy and doesn’t want to talk about it.What …
Daily Emerald videographers Stacy Yurishcheva and Raquel Ortega went around the University of Oregon campus and asked fellow Ducks to define the popular phrase “Netflix and Chill”. Find out what responses they got and what it actually means!
Peter and I had been dating for only a week before our relationship became marked by the signs of a long-distance relationship: expensive phone bills, used-up data plans and Skype sessions over plates of steaming pad Thai.
One in five women will be a victim of completed or attempted sexual assault while in college, according to the National Criminal Justice Reference Service. For men, it’s one in 16.
Remember back in middle school when it seemed you couldn’t go anywhere without finding a drawing of a penis? You’d find penises scribbled in notebooks, or drawn in the dust of a car window, or etched into the walls of a bathroom stall? And not once did you ever see a drawing of a vulva?
I’ll admit: I really like to shake my ass. But, sometimes, the music I like to dance to (club hits, mostly) compromise my feminist sensibilities: I back my ass up to “Gas Pedal” and drop it like it’s hot while rappers talk about the “white… spilling down your throat” and “the way she shakin’…
This year, Valentine’s Day falls on a Saturday. If you don’t want to look like an unloving dingus, you’ve already reserved a table at the finest dining establishment and pre-ordered bouquets of the nicest flowers.
Does buying a pre-packaged, mass-produced, red foil-covered heart-shaped box of stale chocolate really prove to your significant other that you’re the Heaven-sent soulmate with whom they are destined to spend an unquestioned eternity? Well how about the unforgettable gift of a monstrous five…

Just this September, I went topless — in public — for the first time. Laying on a towel by the river in Eugene, I had untied my bikini top. I felt free. Confident. Empowered.
The first time I sought birth control, I was in high school and I was nervous.
Lillian Huebner forgets where they first heard the word. It might have been while reading a book. Or scrolling through Tumblr accounts.
When John O’Malley first moved to Eugene from New York City, he was shocked. It wasn’t the city’s people, its politics or its dampness. It was its nightlife: Eugene didn’t have a gay bar.
One day each spring, you’ll find a diagram of a vagina in a large lecture hall on campus: PLC 180. The diagram is an intricate, detailed look at female anatomy with each part neatly labeled.
Just looking at it, you wouldn’t suspect the house to be anything but normal. It’s large and white; it’s a home dedicated to “clean and sober living,” and it’s located in a rural area of Eugene. Yet there’s a room in the basement of the house where activities take place that many people prob…
Porn screwed me. As an 18-year-old virgin, I thought I was prepared for what having sex was going to be like. I had watched video after video of people doing it online, so I figured I knew everything about it. Now after actually having awkward, fun and emotional sexual encounters I know that…
It’s Sunday, June 28, 1969. The Stonewall Riots occurred after a popular New York gay bar was raided. The patrons of the bar — sick of homophobic oppression — fought back that night against the New York City police.
Let’s be frank. These days if you want to hook up, there are numerous apps available to help you find a conquest. Click, click then bang. Pun intended. As of late, communication with romantic interests is done almost always through technology.
Prejudice comes in many forms. Sometimes, it shows itself through personal conflicts — through bullying, taunting or hate crimes. Other times, it comes in the form of legal matters — through withholding the right to vote or the right to marry.
When Maj Hutchinson tells people she is the director of the University of Oregon Men’s Center, she is commonly met with two reactions: first, surprise (because she is a woman) and second, confusion (that a Men’s Center exists). “Why do we need a Men’s Center,” some women ask, “when the whole…
While students at UC Berkeley were busy making travel plans for Thanksgiving, Nadia Cho had another prerogative.
Yesterday, while listening to music on my iPod, Josh Groban’s version of “Little Drummer Boy” came on. And, instead of getting filled with the fuzzy, warm holiday spirit like I normally do when I hear his sexy baritone, my heart dropped. The date was Dec. 26, 2012, and I felt incredibly sad.
