    The Doctor Is In: I Think I’m Leaking

    Q: This is a really gross question, but I have to ask someone. I discharge…a lot. And it’s not just around the time of my period. It’s random and plentiful. Ew. Anyways, I don’t know what to do about it or if it’s caused by something serious? Help. I’m afraid to be with a boy because he’ll be super grossed out.

    I’m Not Sorry. Not At All.

    There are some things you should always apologize for, like being late to meet a friend, bumping into someone on the street, or accidentally running over your ex-boyfriend’s foot with your car (whoops). But there are also some things that, as a woman, you shouldn’t have to say sorry for. I don’t care what anyone says, but you should not be left feeling guilty for any of the following.

    I had just gotten out of a long relationship (and immediately hopped into the sack with a new guy) when I decided to change my birth control prescription. I had never really been happy with the old one, but had put off changing because I didn’t want to deal with the whole spotting issue with my BF around.

    Q: My period is irregular every month. Sometimes it comes 6 weeks apart and other times it can be up to 9. I am not on birth control (can’t handle the side effects) and practice safe sex with my boyfriend. The problem is that I get freaked out every month that I’m pregnant.

    The CC Weekly Weigh In: Advice for Dudes

    I saw a guy yesterday wearing two pastel polo shirts with both collars popped. Yesterday. As in 2009. Where was this kid’s girlfriend/friends to inform him that the popped collar thing went out in 2005? Or, I don’t know, that the double pastel shirt look wasn’t OK on a guy even then? Friends don’t let friends pop their collars (anymore)!

    Sometimes it seems like your skin has a mind of its own, (an evil mind that wants to ruin parties, dances and dates). Remember that episode of Family Guy where Chris’s zit takes over his life and tries to kill him? Yeah I feel like my zits do a similar thing sometimes. And I want it to stop. Now.
