Cabbages & Condoms
[Read the article: Condomania]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]There's a chain of restaurants in Thailand called Cabbages & Condoms with also the mission to curb HIV transmission and advocate population control. I've never been, but I hear it's very nice and not at all sleazy.

Be proud
[Read the article: I'm embarrassed to admit I met my guy online]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Be proud that you were able to move past the traditional ways of meeting people ("I have this friend you gotta meet, you'd totally hit it off! Oh yeah, he's got a great personality and he drives a nice car!" "Is it hot in here or is it just you?") and found a great mate using a very thorough screening process, namely someone who is expressive with words and can read. I'm sure you know by now how many men are too lazy to write a personalized response to an online posting, and some are even lazier about writing a profile to set themselves apart from the hundreds of others clamoring for your attention.
Some people still think that online personals are for the desperate. The type of people who read Salon.com and use the online personals attached to Salon.com are really top notch. You'd never find this many amazing people in such high concentration anywhere else.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with meeting someone through online personals. Screw those boring closed minded people who have to rely on alcohol and dim lights to lubricate the first impression.
