Dear Flora: Polyamory and PPD
Dear_Flora
Dear Flora, I've been with my husband for 8 years now, married for 3. If it matters, I'm also a man. We've always had a satisfying sex life, and I'm very happy with him. I feel like we have always communicated our needs well, and during a recent heart-to-heart, my husband communicated a need that I'm not sure how to handle: polyamory. We've had threesomes in the past, but it was always with ... ...more

Dear Flora: Secret Baby and Unwelcome Dog
Dear_Flora
Dear Flora,I'm planning to move in with my boyfriend soon, and he doesn't want me to take my dog.

Sorry, Reimplanting Ectopic Pregnancies Isn't a Thing
EnglishMajorLeagues
Ohio legislature recently made waves with House Bill 413, which in 723 pages introduces a concept called "abortion murder," which means anybody who has or performs an abortion could face 15 years in prison. But most strangely is the bill's stipulation that doctors must attempt to "reimplant" ectopic pregnancies. Unfortunately, with our current technology, that's not possible. Ectopic ... ...more
