Random fact of the day: I've never had a bad Friday the 13th. Okay, so I've dealt with low points on those days, but they've always started prior to the actual day, and therefore do not count. I have, however, had some horrible Saturday the 14ths, and last Thursday the 12th was a disaster.

I'm thinking about cutting some people from my LJ flist - namely people who update regularly, but I never actually talk to, because we have so little in common. Part of me also wants to subscribe to more people on DW, but I need to get into the habit of commenting on the journals I'm already subscribing to first. I guess I'm just scared of how I'll come across to some people, especially right now.

Talking of Dreamwidth, I want to ask some questions about sex. Okay, bit of a jump there, but let me explain - I feel comfortable enough to ask these questions to a wider audience here, but not at LiveJournal. No, I don't know why.

But where? [community profile] sex has about 8 members, [community profile] sextips about 2 or 3, and neither of them have any (public) posts. However, it might get people talking in those communities, which might generate more members.

Well, you know what happens when I don't know what to do...

[NOTE: The poll title was meant to be "Let's talk about sex!", but I totally forgot that apostrophes and standard poll coding do not mix.]
Poll #1706 Let
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: None, participants: 5

In which communities should I ask my sex-based questions?

[community profile] sex
5 (100.0%)

[community profile] sextips
2 (40.0%)

Some other community (add suggestions in comments)
0 (0.0%)

If I were going to ask sex-based questions in only one community, which should it be?

[community profile] sex
4 (100.0%)

[community profile] sextips
0 (0.0%)

Some other community (add suggestions in comments)
0 (0.0%)

Based purely on how active the members are in their own journal and, thus, how likely they might be to see your questions on their reading page, I'd got for the sex community. Two of their members have updated their own journal within this month according to their stats. So, uhm, yeah, I'd guess that that would be your best bet.

The group Sex - I don't know what DW's link tag is - sounds to me like the place to ask questions and SexTips sounds like a place to get information.

I'm sure that your Friends list would be happy to answer any questions you have.

I want to get a wider array of answers/opinions on this particular question than usual. I'll probably post what I post there over here too anyway (although maybe not on LJ - I've got some very conservative people on my flist there).

(BTW the link tag is [user name=username], but with the pointy brackets.)

I don't post anything too private or emotional here, I save that for the Other Place.

I think of there as the Friday night out at the pub with everyone having a whale of a time, and here as when the barman locks in your closest friends and pours a stiff whisky.

Thanks for the tag tips. I knew it was different from the Other Place's way. I've joined [community profile] sex and [community profile] sextips just to see what all the fuss is about. And it's a subject I like, being a guy.
