Top Love Taps
Every Friday, sex educator and author Patrick Califia answers a question from our customers on the Venus Envy website as the Venus Envy Advisor. This is a very popular feature of our site, but we thought it would be fun to bring you the 'best of' every newsletter. The letter below was our favorite from the past couple of months—enjoy!
Dear Patrick,
.... I seem to be a true bisexual. When I am not in love with a woman, my life is bleak. I need that passion and romance. But it's not enough. I have a conservative job and don't think I can seek out a triad, with a lover of each sex. But there is something that calls to me about sex with another man, and I just can't live without that either. I find that right now I am having a lot of gay sex, but it isn't satisfying romantically. I've never been in love with another man, and I don't think I could ever do that. Is this going to be what the rest of my life is like? ....
