Drew’s Tips for Boys

Wherein Drew reveals something you may not have known about him.


Here we go, the second of my “advice” entries.

As I had some dating advice for girls, I’ve also got some for guys. Why would I post dating advice for guys? Am I learning from my mistakes and aching to share the wisdom with others?

Not exactly.

This about mistakes that have been made by guys I’ve gone out with. Yes, you read that right. I occasionally go out with guys. Why? If I need to spell it out for you, you’re not all that swift. But if I were to spell it out, it’d only take two letters – B and I.

Shock! Horror!

Whatever. Deal with that tidbit of info however you like. Makes no matter to me. The advice I’m shilling here today applies equally to guys who date chicks as well as other dudes, so there’s something any guy can gain from it. Well, unless he knows these things already. In that case, maybe this can serve as valuable reinforcement, or maybe a reminder that not every guy knows these things, and that the word about them should be spread.

Tip #1 – Bring your goddamn condoms!

Seriously. In this day and age, are there guys who don’t know this? I don’t give a crap if you don’t like how sex feels with one on. It still feels better than no sex at all, which is what you’re gonna get if you don’t have one handy. And don’t lay some bullshit on your partner about how safe you are and how you don’t need one. Hey, jackass – if you’re not using condoms, you ain’t fucking safe! (Yes, I mean that in both ways.) And to the partners out there who hear this crap, don’t buy into it. Because even if you don’t, chances are somebody else has, and who knows what might be getting spread around by Mr. Safety there next to you.

Tip #1a – Once safe, always safe

So you’ve agreed to your partner’s request and put on a condom. Well done! It may not feel as nice as barebacking, but at least you’re getting laid. Now don’t go and screw it up! Just because you’ve shown a willingness to play safe does not give you the right to suggest something unsafe. No, you can’t do something risky “just for a second” you stupid jerk. That second may be all it takes. I don’t care if you can show me a study to the contrary – my body, my rules. Don’t like ’em? Go find somebody else.

Tip #2 – How about you shave?

I’d always heard from a few girls that they like the feel of beard stubble. What they never followed that up with was “in small doses.” Sure, it can feel nice for a brief moment, but after that it’s like a brillo pad on your skin. And the more sensitive the skin (you know where I mean), the shorter that “brief moment” is. I don’t mind having certain parts of my body scrubbed, but damned if I need them scoured!

Tip #3 – Don’t be afraid to be cheap.

Okay, this might not work as well with girls as it does with guys, but if you’ve agreed that the plan is just to hook up and shag, why not get down and dirty? You don’t need to spring for the fancy love hotel with the big, round bed so you can feel like a porn star. Go low budget! Get the cheap rental room that you pay for by the hour. You know, the one that’s barely big enough for the bed that’s in it. The one that’s there for one reason only – cheap, quick sex. Sure, best not to think about who’s been in there before you, but once you’re done you can grin at each other and laugh about who’s gonna be in there after you’ve gone and they’ve cleaned it up.

(Side tip for girls – if your guy has shown a willingness to do the proper love hotel thing, why not indulge your naughty side once in a while and go cheap?)

Now, if you were worried that this was going to be disturbing (or more than it was) and be chock full of graphic descriptions of boysex, you can see that’s not where I was going with this. (And if you were looking for graphic descriptions of boysex, there are many other websites you can get that from. I can probably give you a link if you need one. ^.^)

These first two advice topics were the ones I had in mind when I created this section. As i get more social, I’m sure there will be more entries here. I may also offer up tidbits on other things, but only if they don’t fall into the other categories, and are truly “advice” oriented, and not just me blathering on about random topics. So stay tuned…

If I haven’t scared you off, of course.
