I’ve Tried Every Dating Strategy & I’m Still Single

Q: How do you trust your approach to a dating strategy when you don't love the results? I'm 27 and feel like I'm finally hitting my stride with dating in a big city. It's easy meeting new people and I actually enjoy the shared awkwardness of a first date. Plus, I have a great circle of friends whom I can turn to for support and share a laugh with about the tough moments. But lately, it feels like an endless string of sending or receiving some version of that timeless text: "It's been great getting to know you, but I'm just not feeling a romantic connection." Sometimes, it ends after three dates or three months, but it always ends. I'm sure at this point you're ready to cue up the world's smallest violin. I've read stories in this column from folks who are facing bigger challenges and WAY more difficult circumstances and doing it with a courage and strength that [...]

Erection Leaves Man Suffering With ‘Intense Pain’

A red-faced man landed himself in hospital following a three-day erection. The 46-year-old man swallowed several erectile dysfunction tablets in one go. After failing to go soft, he finally sought medical help three days later. He was admitted to an urgent care center in João Pessoa, north-eastern Brazil, with “intense pain” in his genital region. Due to the severity of his condition, he had to be transferred by ambulance to the city’s Trauma Hospital on Sunday (15 Oct). Images show the man being taken from the ambulance in a wheelchair hooked up to a drip. At the hospital, surgeons made a puncture at the base of his penis and drained the organ. After his condition was stabilized, he was discharged from the facility around 5am on Monday (16 Oct). Urologist, André Brasileiro told local media: “Like any drug, it needs to be used under medical guidance. “There is a bad habit in the population of self-medication, and a situation like [...]

Revenge Porn Is Back On Legislative Agenda

A serious effort to do just that finally got some traction when former governor Charlie Baker made the banning of revenge porn one pledge in his State of the Commonwealth address. Soon after, the brave survivors came and told their stories. People like Sandy, who had to deal with the emotional turmoil of seeing her nude images on Facebook, the work of an ex-boyfriend. The House moved relatively quickly to pass the measure, the Senate dallied, and the clock ran on — for another year. Get Today in Opinion Globe Opinion's must-reads, delivered to you every Sunday-Friday.

The new bill makes it a crime to knowingly distribute “visual material depicting another person, [...]

The Ascent Of The Supermodel

The 1995 film “Catwalk” is a vérité-style documentary about the fashion world during its carefree, hedonistic glory days of the nineties. It explores this world primarily by following Christy Turlington, one of the era’s most recognizable and bankable supermodels. The film, directed by Robert Leacock, is shot largely in black and white, and it features the sort of footage, set to dreamy music, that might make modern-day viewers pine for the unencumbered glamour of celebrity in the pre-social-media era. Turlington and her cohort—fellow-supermodels like Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss, and Carla Bruni—are pictured in a constant state of air-kissing and waving ciao while gallivanting backstage at Fashion Week or on the set of a photo shoot. In one scene, a young Moss smokes a cigarette and sips what appears to be champagne while having her hair done. In another, the women sway to the music in a dark night club, grinning in bliss. When Turlington checks into a hotel in Milan, [...]

Forgotten Love Is Heartening, Just Like These 8 Romantic Movies

‘Forgotten Love‘ revolves around the journey of a once-revered surgeon, Professor Rafal Wilczur, who grapples with the loss of both his family and memory. His life takes an unexpected turn when a chance encounter with a figure from his distant past offers him an opportunity for redemption. Amidst the backdrop of professional success within a private clinic, Rafal remains dedicated to his altruistic passion for helping the less fortunate, even as his personal life is marred by unresolved conflicts.

The Perfect Three Way

Three way in the making.  Megan James, aka @megan_a_james on TikTok, has gone viral on the app after sharing the story of a recent date with a guy who brought two other women along, intent on creating “the perfect three way.” The couple gets seated inside at a four-top table, not anticipating somebody will fill the two other seats. Soon, James sees a woman approach the table who she assumes is “the waitress.” “She kind of just looks at me funny and introduces herself just casually,” the influencer revealed. Then, another woman approaches and takes a seat. From there, the ladies start to mingle while their date sits back and watches. Then one of the girls asked how she knew Matthew. “This is our first date. How do you know Matthew?” Megan said. “I thought this was our first date,” the apparent third wheel responded. James later clarified to viewers on TikTok that she initially thought he’d invited his friends [...]

Chaturbate Shouldn’t Derail A Political Campaign

By now you’ve heard about Susanna Gibson, the nurse practitioner running for the Virginia statehouse who, news outlets revealed, had an account on Chaturbate. I never heard of it either. Honest. It’s a website where individuals and couples masturbate, have sex, and who knows what else. When I logged on to see what this was, I tuned into one couple in their underwear sitting on a couch, not touching themselves or each other, looking as passionate as two delayed passengers in the Amtrak waiting area. Other couples were more, um, kinetic. Gibson, a Democrat, isn’t denying that she had an account on the site where she and her husband engaged in sex. She’s defiantly said she’s staying in the race, and her attorney vows to use Virginia’s revenge porn law to go after whoever leaked it. The mother of two is right to stand her ground. Look, it’s up to voters to decide if sexhibition with your spouse is disqualifying. [...]

Will The Rains Extinguish Burning Man?

Last Thursday was a typically atypical day at Burning Man—the last before a series of atypically atypical days. It began, for me, with a bike ride with some friends to the Temple for an orchestral performance. Burning Man is named after a large effigy that burns in a raucous extravaganza on Saturday night; the next night, most of the same crowd sits in silence watching a wooden temple, of a different design each year, go up in flames. Beforehand, people fill the Temple with messages, writing on the walls and stapling photos and personal effects to the structure. I wandered inside and perused the community’s contributions. Many of them memorialized lost loved ones, but the ones that hit me hardest addressed the search for self-love. “To my past self,” one message read. “You are more amazing than you realize. We’ve made it.” The note ended with a hint at the future: “See you there. Xoxo.” I was in a receptive [...]
