How many times is Dan Savage going to say, "No matter what sexual problem you and your girlfriend/wife are having all the women in the universe are going to say it's all your fault because you're the man". It's getting old and annoying and a little gynophobic. Mabey it's only the uptight, bitter ex-girlfriend types who feel compelled to coment.

I'm with Dan on this one. I have NEVER heard a discussion of a couple's dysfunctional sex life without the consensus eventually placing blame on the man. This is the prevailing common wisdom - women are perfect sex partners provided they are treated properly. If they are imperfect as sex partners, they simply aren't being sufficiently respected, charmed, listened to, etc. Or the man has become boring. That's that - so says just about everyone, even men.

That's bullshit. I realized in my 20's that I had a freakishly low sex drive and that my only options were 1. keep faking enthusiasm 2. allow my partner to get his needs met elsewhere or 3. resign myself to being alone (which really isn't that bad if you don't get terribly horny). Anyway, my point is I never blamed the men I was with, I blamed my body chemistry. The implication that the vast majority of women are too self-centered, hormonal or just too downright stupid to realize that sex is (or should be) a two way street, is incredibly insulting.

Way to hate on women with absolutely no provocation! Dan, you may as well admit it. You are a misogynist. There's no two ways about it. Your little "joke" a few weeks back about vaginas looking like a split can of ham shows just how much regard you have for the sexual esteem of women- ie: none. Oh, I know you'll say you were pointing that out as an example of how even you can be a jerk at times. But then you spun out the comparision, elaborating on it and clearly deriving pleasure from doing so. And then, this snide comment portraying women as blindly judgmental man-haters just takes the cake. Did some woman poop in your food or something? Did your mom beat you? What gives, man?

Oh, and by the way, there's a much larger number of straight women than lesbians who get off on watching men fuck each other. Ever hear of slash (stories and art portraying graphic sex between males)? It's rather a phenomenon online, and it's mostly written by heterosexual women. Get yourself educated.

I enjoyed Savage Love much more without all of the comments from people who probably value "diversity" as long as everyone in world agrees with their perspective. Folks - don't you ever read just a bit of sarcasm or hyperbole in Dan's comments....lighten up, laugh at the generalizations and stop sounding like that old lady in the high school office telling everyone to sit up straight and mind their collective p's and q's.
