oh mny goodness, i just found this site, and it's soooooooooo great! a refreshing change from all those sites run by 50 yr old women who have no idea what they're even talking about!and i swear to god, heather corrinna, you have such a healthy outlook on sex and from what i've read of your articles, so did your parents. you NEED to reproduce for the good of our society! people like you need to breed so that our world isn't overrun with narrow minded snobs like it is today! loving it, keep up the great work, emily xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hey, we're glad you like the site (and you have a great username, by the way) .But I do have to point out that some 50-year-old women have a very good idea of what they're talking about when it comes to sex.
And, you know, people can affect the lives of huge numbers of people other than their biological children - as Heather does through this site. So I'm not sure why you think she's morally obliged to "breed" - that's up to her, I would imagine ...
(Although I admit it might be kind of cool if we could clone her ).

Well, thanks. I wouldn't mind having a kid or two one of these days, but I don't feel I *have* to do it. And I do feel like I've got quite a few already, some days. On the other hand, if you'd like to make it more likely to happen, you can always donate to Scarleteen. After all, until I can swing some health insurance or adoption fees, it's not something feasible for me.
Btw, not only will I, too, be over 50 someday (I'm as closeto 50, after all, as I am to 16), there are a LOT of amazing sex experts over 50. Joani Blank, Betty Dodson, Annie Sprinkle, the works. And most of them know VERY well what they're talking about, and without them paving the way, sex writers like myself wouldn't likely be here at all.
(The ideas of cloning me is a lot more scary than cloning goats, I have to say.)

Heather, if They cloned, say, five of you, it doesn't mean you'd be one-fifth as stressed; it means you'd be working five times as hard.

Hey, enough of us are British, or are familiar enough with the culture for the humour not to be a total shock. We can't, however, necessarily know you've got your tongue in your cheek from words alone. ------------------ Milke, with an L, SSBD, RATS, TMNTP, MF, CWCD, DNFTF
