Savage Wank
For those of you who don't read Savage Love, it's a love and sex advice column written by Dan Savage. His readers tend to be towords the kinky, freaky and perverted, and so are the questions. Dan is also well-known for being highly political(perhaps you know what "santorum" means?) and something of a dick occasionally.
Now that we have introductions out of the way...the wank.

Fact about Dan Savage: He is painfully biphobic. Really, really, admittedly biphobic. He is also throughly bitter about the gay marriage issue.

And so he delivers unto us this column, which is steadily become par for the course: Dan Savage is mad as hell (at everyone who can get married) and he's not gonna take it anymore.

However, his fans are dramatically split: those who agree with Dan, and those who do not at all. Internet fights ensue in spades
starting with the first comment.

There's enough "don't like, don't read" for everyone!

rosiposi would be a douche to zir readers too! And Dan's political problems > someone's sexual issues! So nyah!

Bonus wank on the subject of unplanned pregnancy! Tasty!

The last, the best. a completely random (and lame) link to a cartoon called "I Dated An Anarchist!"

Oh, that was fun. I'm sticky now.

. . . the first Savage Love column I read, I thought I was looking at a copy of the Onion. Alas, 'twas not so. I don't particularly like the advice handed out; the fact that he lets a personal vendetta get in the way only reinforces the dislike.

Considering that his column is featured in that fine publication, you might very well have been. Yeah, I'm pretty much convinced it's all a spoof and he's making up the letters, too...especially after the one in which he explains how to jack off a parakeet.

I was thinking about posting a wank report on this, too, but you beat me to it. He's honesly just been so annoyingly wanky about marriage in his column the last few weeks... guh.

I agree.

I mean I understand his anger and annoyance, but he runs and an advice colum, if he's not willing to, ya know,actually give advice because he's too busy having a hissy fit maybe he should go find something else to do, instead of taking it out on his readers.

I don't know how Dan Savage would feel, but as a queer girl from MA, I grant you permission :)

But I probably don't count, seeing as I'm bi and we don't really exist.

Poor Dan. He's ridiculously afraid of/disgusted by the nootch, too, which I find more than a little laughable.

We don't have eyes or teeth down there, Dan. Seriously.

That aside, snerk.

Fact about Dan Savage: He is painfully biphobic. Really, really, admittedly biphobic.

*kicks self for not posting his wanky 'I've decided that you bisexuals are mostly straight; and since it's kinder than my previous position that you are all liars and cowards I want you to quit bitching at me' column*

I love Dan for his autobiographical stuff, it's side-splittingly funny, but his column is really beginning to test that love.

I really have never gotten the anti-bisexual thing. I mean, "NO, you must fit in ONE OF THESE BOXES!!" Considering that those boxes were more or less invented by straight psychologist assholes like Freud, why would a gay activist type of person like Dan be so...*ahem*...married to the notion of sexual classification? Especially in this day and age, when said classifications are being sliced into thinner and thinner wedges of a more and more crowded pie?

So we can all fuck whoever we like, but only if our choices meet with his approval? WTF??

Clearly this is not an opinion shared by many, but I don't have a problem with it.

Dan Savage has never acted in a way that indicates he's a genuine, 'really cares what happens', here to offer great advice columnist. He's mainly about the lulz, satire, and a fair dose of political opinions, so it's not as if he's shirking his main duty of handing out much needed advice in order to have his little 'snit', as some people have called it.

Mainly, though, I kinda like his logic here. It seems sometimes that a number of straight people (and I guess I am one, being in a hetero, monogamous relationship currently) who support gay marriage don't always realise to what extent it's affecting the people who are being denied this event, and seem to only wish to discuss it on their terms, i.e. they often dictate what is the 'proper' forum and time to have the discussion.

As heavyhanded as he is being, I think Dan is trying to point out that this recent decision seriously affects his life and his rights, and that it sticks in his craw to be told by the courts that marriage is a 'sacred' act between two straight people, when so many straight couples are writing to him about how they want to cheat, are cheating, or have cheated in the past (among other things that I'm sure the courts would not view as wholesome activities).

I don't agree with anyone taking out their frustrations on innocent parties, and I'm not saying his snark was entirely called for or justifiable, but I do see what he's trying to get across here, even if he's not doing it very eloquently.

I guess sometimes it just gets really frustrating when no one is really listening to you, and yet you're always expected to play nice in public.

I've seen this rant so many times, the only thing that really crossed my mind while reading was how anticlimactic that last reply was. I was half-expecting something along the lines of 'Why yes, I have, BR. BUT MY ENJOYMENT WAS TAINTED. TAINTED BY THE HETEROSEXUAL PRIVILEGE OF MARRIAGE.'

What exactly is with the "Don't like; don't read" bit? It's not a fanfic with a warning on it, it's a column containing someone's political and social opinions. They're there for people to agree and disagree with, or they should be.

I haven't read his column too often since about 13 years ago. Back then it was a little more focused on gay sex and a little more fun. (Not saying everything has to be fun, but it was.) And the biphobia thing didn't come up much.

I'd love to have an opinion on this, since we live in the same city and I used to read his paper regularly until it became a parody of itself, but I don't, really. Although he's expressing the frustration of an awful lot of people I know, including the couple whose wedding I attended last weekend (and it WAS a wedding, damnit, albeit not recognized by the state of Washington—which, Seattle and a few other blue pockets aside, is an astonishingly conservative place).

I had no idea he was like this. What a DOUCHE.

And I'm scared of what his thoughts on transsexuals are.

I stopped being a regular reader after his: "FAT PEOPLE ARE GROSS! They should be covered so the rest of us don't have to look at them. EWWWW." rant, especially after it was followed up by, "No, I'm not contributing to the rise of eating disorders, because boys can be anorexic, too."
