Reader Feedback on "Miss Information"

Erin, in your advise to 'inner outer' about his sore dick you suggested he used zync oxide and cortizone ointment. i've used neosporin on my lil chap when i'm roughed up from too much hard um, loving and it works like a charm. i've passed the advice on to some of my special ladies involved it the indulgent loving making and they say it works a scream on them too. keep your p and v healthy and happy!

I think Miss Other Side shouldn't feel the need to pigeon-hole herself into any particular category of sexual orientation. She should be allowed to be attracted to and have sex with anyone who is willing. She likes what she likes. That should be good enough.

What's up BH - Thanks for the info. I was giving the advice based on the assumption that the reader was having protected sex in a monogamous relationship and wasn't experiencing any other STD-related symptoms (I know it doesn't say that in the letter but we edit here - sometimes a little, sometimes a lot). What I've researched has told me that hydrocortisone is safe to use on superficial dick injuries of the type Inner Outer was describing. I totally agree with what you're saying about the STD stuff and it probably would have been smarter if I suggested he get checked out first before following my recs or doing his own diagnosis. So yes, I was bad. I will follow up with Inner Outer personally and feel free to spank me at your discretion. xoxox Miss Info p.s. I've been looking for a sexy resident MD to provide input on these types of questions. If you're interested, BH (or anyone else) email me. Your reward is 15 minutes of fame and a plug for your practice/blog/Bob Seger cover band in an upcoming column.

ONe Night on the other side... Well, hell yeah she is using him. Or as she put it, "taking advantage of him in this situation." Hell yeah, she needs to be direct and to the point, tell him what she is doing, don't string the guy along. I mean she states she is definite about herself being a lesbian, but she is having bisexual tendancies? This is something along the lines of "a little bit pregnant". You either are or you are not! You are either confirmed homosexual, confirmed bisexual, or confirmed heterosexual. What is she really looking for? A sexual encounter to prove to herself that she is truly gay? Have a man to use one time to prove to herself that this is not what she wants? I'm tellin ya, she sounds an awful lot like a libra! She just can't seem to make up her mind here. She says one thing, but then totally changes her mind. Also, she must consider what this guy might think after the deed is done! He might be smiling and thinkin he just scored, but what is he going to think in a day or so? She says it is a friend, however, has she told him that this is only a one time sex thing, and will never happen again? HONEST, OPEN COMMUNICATION! Maybe if everyone practiced it, there would be a lot less strife. Tell the truth, tell it up front, and then go from there. Aslo, its not like he is going to get hurt by doing the act, he is probably going to be happy to get laid, but then again, feelings get hurt and friendships get ruined with sex. Tell her to think about that!

Yikes, that HC business sounds scary. I was kinda wondering how Miss Info's first message to the guy wasn't to see a doctor, STAT. Or head to a free clinic. I do like these columns. They're fine. But I do miss Em and Lo sometimes.

okay, first, i love the transition between the first question and the second. that's just funny on its own. as for the boyfriend-soulmate dilemma, the question that she should be asking herself is why is she with someone like the boyfriend and not like the soulmate. there's probably a reason....it's no accident. i don't buy the bad timing line. never have.

I read your column every week, and enjoy it almost every week. However, I think it's horribly irresponsible of you to be telling Inner Outer, the one with the sore dick, to be putting hydrocortisone cream on his cuts and scrapes, or worse yet, on an STD-ridden dick. Hydrocortisone is a steroid, suppresses immune reactions and should only be used on dermatitis-related skin reactions, and can darken the skin of an otherwise typically normal-appearing schlong. God forbid that his cuts and scrapes are from herpes simplex -- his dick will go berserk, and not in a good way. Just tell him to keep it clean with mild soap and dab around the bad parts with some Neosporin. And yes, he should refrain from all things nookie until he heals. I've been dispensing medical advice for a living for a while now -- and while there's a lot of stuff I still don't know, I know you better tell Inner Outer to back off on the HC.
