Hello
Trinity,
What are circuit parties and would you recommend them?
Circuit Queries, Philadelphia, Pa.
Hello Circuit Queries,
Circuit parties, typically benefiting AIDS organizations started in Atlanta,
Ga., in the ’70s at the Hotlanta River Expo. So many people showed
up that the organizers had to create smaller parties to accommodate the
crowds, thus a circuit of parties. Events like Montreal’s Black & Blue
fill sports arenas, boasting famous DJ’s and entertainers. For $75
to $150 you too can dance next to gorgeous, muscular gay men on drugs (how
else do you think they stay up). So, once in your life, down a Red Bull,
remove your shirt and dance all night. But, honey, skip the drugs because
some people also overdose at these events.
Hey Trinity,
I invited a guy from the internet over for dinner, which ended up in bed.
After I orgasmed I asked him to leave because I was tired. Later he called
to say how “horrible” I was for “excusing him” five
minutes after “I pleased myself.” He was an internet date.
What did he expect, romance?
Thanks Now Leave, Houston, Texas
Hey Thanks Now Leave,
Whether he wanted romance or to be treated humanely, it’s never OK
to kick out a one-night stand right after you orgasm, including internet
dates. Next time “please” your date too, spend a bit of time
together then announce that you’re selfish — I mean tired.
Make someone glad to meet you not mad.
Dearest Trinity,
I met this guy who forced me to have sex. I’m gay but I think I was
raped. How do I know?
The Rape Rap, Nashville, Tenn.
Dearest Rape Rap,
I also was raped at gunpoint in the south in the early ’80s. I’ll
remember
it forever and you will too. That’s the first sign you were raped.
If you were given drugs that’s the second sign. And if you feel like
it’s your fault, there’s your third sign. Other signs include
marks on your body and a fear in your body of being raped again. Yes, sweetie,
it takes two to tango but just because you said yes to a date doesn’t
mean you must mate.
Dear
Trinity,
Two years ago I broke up with my ex of two years. Now he wants to get back
but we always get back together to see if the relationship will work again.
Should I give it another try?
Once Again, Utica, N.Y.
Dear Once Again,
If after four years you’re still not sure, one thing is sure — you
both may never be sure. So before starting up again read:

Sharp Tips For When It’s Finally Time
To End A Relationship
1.
When every night promises fighting and/or violence, it’s time.
2. When he cancels five out of seven dates (three times he called too late
and twice he forgot), it’s time to forget him.
3. When by the fifth date she still treats you like a loser with nothing
important to say or do — it’s definitely time.
4. When after three months he’s still extremely lazy, rude and selfish,
it’s time.
5. When you can’t do or have never done anything right, it’s
so long time.
6. When she doesn’t want to talk, listen or communicate ideas on
making things better — guess what?
7. When he cheats in front of you and/or behind your back for the third
time, guess what again?
8. When you’ve only seen him a total of one month in the last three
because of family, business or blah blah blah, it’s time.
9. When she steals your money, your car and your best friend, do I have
to say it?
10. Lastly, when you haven’t had sex in the last two years of your
six-year relationship, it’s big time to end it.
Don’t let your answers go unanswered!
