Finally got done reading Dan Savage's Savage Love: Straight Answers from America's Most Popular Sex Columnist, which is a collection of letters from his Savage Love column (previously known as Hey, Faggot). The letters are grouped into chapters (Gettin' Together, Kink, Odds and Ends) which are by Mr Savage in the acerbic, sarcastic yet honest way that people can relate to.
Mind you, this is one advice column that cannot possibly run in family newspapers (my first encounter with it was on The AV Club website years ago) because the guy answers questions about fetishes, kinks, sex toys, relationship problems with some (necessary) profanity. The only qualifications that he has for this job is that he's a faggot (I mean it in a nice, and not hostile, way) who doesn't really care what other people think.
Personally, I prefer the Savage Lovecast (his "weekly, out loud version of his column, Savage Love") podcast than the print version because (among other things) I'm a sucker for the man's voice.
As someone who hasn't always followed the column religiously, this is a good catch up read.
