Most of us have been talking (or rather, whispering and giggling) about sex since that first middle school health lecture. I vividly remember the riveting day in “Family Living” (Ohio likes euphemisms) in fifth grade during which our teacher told all the girls in my class about periods and sex. Like many 10-year-olds, I absolutely […] More
Some of us may have dreamed about our wedding flowers for decades, while others are fantasizing about elopement destinations and wondering if a marriage license fits with their 10-year plan.
