For the past four years, I have wanted to bone on Bascom. Yet, as commencement closes in, I am spending my time on the Terrace, beer in hand, instead of bumping and grinding on school grounds. Though the Terrace is a seeming paradise at the moment, it is hardly the lewd sex act I have been fetishizing the past four years.
In the grand scheme of sexual desires and fetishes, having sex on school grounds is elementary, to say the least. Though it doesn't involve whips, furies or stiletto heels, this fetish is still kinky with high pleasure potential (and a little risk).
Everyone, especially college students, is kinky … and we need to embrace the kink in all of us. What is the most powerful sexual organ? Not low-hanging testicles or an engorged vulva, but your brain. So instead of thinking about sex simply as routine and calculated, recognize sex as the most fulfilling way to express yourself and your desires, kink and all.
No one can tell you about your sexual desires. You must discover them yourself. Discovering your kink is the easy part — you have masturbated to it countless times already. It is expressing those desires to your partner(s) that is difficult. You should be able to, and want to, tell your partner(s) your nasty desires. Expressing that you want to (insert kinky fetish here) is essential in having a fulfilling sexual relationship.
Exploring your kink and desires should be liberating and orgasmic, to say the least. So while you kink it up a notch and explore your sexual desires, I will be on the Terrace, beer in hand, waiting to bone.

I had a fetish once, but I got fleas. Now I'm a devout Christian. Infestations are God's punishment for the vile temptations of the flesh. Repent, sinners!

But my fetish is to have sex with a cartoon character. Meaning, I am equally likely to have sex with a cartoon character as I am with a real woman. So how do I tell her how I feel?

This newspaper is absolute garbage and published articles like this prove it. Can someone explain to me what possible literary value this brings to the table?

So this is what passes for substance on the Badger Herald Opinion page? Being that it's 4/20, were you all stoned when you put this up?

How can I take this paper seriously? The freaken Beacon doesn't even publish crap like this. The Opinion Page editor should be fired!

The BH didn't write it. If you don't like it, write a better letter to the editor.

While I do believe this article shouldn't have been published, you shouldn't expect to find a whole lot of "literary value" in a newspaper, particularly one run by college students.
