Letter from the editor

Meghan Peters

Sex is a sensitive subject.

Whether you’re doing it doggy-style in a hidden Odegaard crevice or waiting until marriage, it’s different for everyone. Fun, painful, taboo, disrespectful, addicting, exciting and happy — you name it and sex can be defined by it.

But it’s also a fact of life. As college students, we’re constantly bombarded by ads, entertainment and even friends who are talking about sex. It’s up to the individual to sort through the propaganda and decide what applies to him or her.

While brainstorming for the Sex Edition, I knew I wouldn’t please everybody. As a former Catholic school girl (yes, boys, I still have the uniform), my lack of sex education drove me to create an informative guide. But the college student in me longed for something fun to mess around with.

After all the dirty jokes and innuendos with friends and fellow editors, I came up with a list that I hope is useful to the average college student. At this time in our lives, we’re learning by doing (literally), and nipples, aphrodisiacs and sexually transmitted diseases are all a part of that.

Some may use this edition to fuel their bonfire and others may learn how to make their partner orgasm. No matter your religious beliefs or sexual orientation, there’s something in here for everybody; you may just have to look closer for it.
