1:02🔗VoiceoverListener discretion is advised. Adam Corolla and Dr. Drew Loveline, Coast to Coast.
1:13🔗VoiceoverYep, it is Loveline. I'm Adam. That's Drew. Phone number 1-800-LOVE-191. Dr. Drew's a board-certified physician and addiction medicine specialist. Yes, Drew?
1:26🔗DrewI'm nothing. You just seem to have got a funny cadence tonight.
1:28🔗AdamWell, I was going to give the fax number, then I realized Westwood 1 owns a fax machine for which there's no paper manufactured anymore because it was probably bought in... I think it was bought at the World's Fair.
1:43🔗DrewWell, you know what they do have here though?
1:53🔗AdamAll right. And there's a drop zone for carrier pigeon, I believe, on the roof too. All right. So I kid you not, even though fax machines are now $89, Westwood One does not own one that works because the paper, the tractor feed paper is no longer manufactured. Big bucks, everybody. Big companies, Westwood Two. Dina Tawfik is our guest tonight. She is from Sex, Love, and Choices. This is an organization that reaches out to kids at school and beats them over the head about not having sex. And listen, I'm fine with that. I want people not to have sex.
2:36🔗DrewWell, that's been all of your point, is it?
3:01🔗AdamSo now, where do you go? Do you go junior high? Do you go high school?
3:06🔗Dina TawfikWe mostly do high school presentations, assemblies, classrooms, Southern California based.
3:15🔗DrewNow, are these schools that already have abstinence only education that encourage you to come in or the schools that may or may not have federal funding based on abstinence only education?
3:25🔗Dina TawfikThere is no funding in California as far as the public schools go.
3:30🔗Dina TawfikFor abstinence only. There is funding for school-based clinics and other things along those lines. But as far as abstinence only, we really go in on private donations, scholarships. Schools have no cash for this stuff. I mean, they're basically herd, indirect, I can't quote verbatim, but Governor Davis said that abstinence only education is being taken care of in California, although we have one of the highest teen pregnancy rates in the nation.
4:03🔗DrewI know there's a federal sort of statute that has, they give you matching funds if you educate as abstinence only, as the only alternative outside of marriage.
4:14🔗Dina TawfikRight. It's a national grant called Title V. California, I believe right now is the only state that denied or wouldn't take any Title V funding. So we're straight, private funding.
4:27🔗DrewBut absence only education is wonderful if it also includes how to deal with being abstinent. How to negotiate.
4:53🔗Dina TawfikIt's a total lifestyle. You know the thing is I've heard, who is it, our former Surgeon General Jocelyn Elders talk about what her definition of abstinence.
5:04🔗Dina TawfikWell it was during a congressional hearing and there was a list of about 30 things, the least offensive being, she entitled Outer Course, which is everything but inner course.
5:16🔗Dina TawfikAnd that's abstinence to her. And the least offensive that I could probably mention being dry humping, taking showers together and mutual masturbation.
5:31🔗AdamJocelyn Elders was really on the vanguard of a lot of stuff. I think she will be appreciated more as the years wear off. Canned for talking about masturbation and dry humping. What a lady. What a build a statue to her.
5:46🔗DrewBut to me that goes back to the fact that virginity has become sort of a technicality.
6:02🔗Dina TawfikDelaying self-gratification. You know things that encompass a total lifestyle. It's not just about not having sex until you get married although I believe it's a large part.
6:13🔗AdamShouldn't you basically just be preaching this toward the women and sort of head the penis off at the past? You know what I mean? Because if you can shut the women down then what good are the men? And the men are going to be a tougher audience too.
6:29🔗Dina TawfikI actually totally agree with you because for the most part if the women aren't giving it up the men aren't getting it.
6:34🔗DrewHow about Wendyshaleet and the Return to Modesty?
6:36🔗Dina TawfikYes. You know what? That has caused I think this revival of sorts among young women.
6:43🔗DrewSo that book you think had a significant impact.
6:46🔗Dina TawfikAbsolutely. I mean it's not like many teen girls are picking it up at Barnes and Noble but I think that the attitude, that view is really beginning to get out. That I think for so long in the 60s and the 70s this generation is really dealing with the ramifications of what happened during the sexual revolution. I think people are just tired of it to tell you the truth.
7:07🔗AdamWell, I don't know if they're tired of it but maybe we've gotten used to it. But what about just addressing the women? Why not just have an assembly for women?
7:15🔗Dina TawfikWell, I think it's the most effective. I do a lot of all-girl Catholic schools, believe it or not. It's interesting because I always thought the all-girl Catholic school reputation wasn't reality. But the most commonly asked question at all-girl Catholic schools is anal sex, oral sex. It's the loophole. It's how far can I go?
7:39🔗DrewIt's the technicality. Those are the ones that call us about that.
7:42🔗Dina TawfikThat's right. And it's because they have this idea that all these other forms of outer course, quote unquote, is abstinence.
7:53🔗AdamAnd let me tell you what, it's really because.
8:01🔗AdamWays around it. And it's sort of like in the 80s, if you were making several million dollars a year and paying half of it in taxes, you had to start finding ways not to pay so goddamn much. You had to start looking for loopholes and technicalities and work around it. And most people that are into religion and are also into getting laid, having a drink every once in a while, maybe coveting an oxen or two or killing somebody or something like that. They got to kind of work it out.
8:35🔗DrewThe way it's the way some of it's done today. I don't want to, not any specific religions, but very often kids experience a certain amount of powerlessness and that results in a certain kind of sexual energy later.
8:44🔗Dina TawfikGearing towards. Well, I think too, it becomes the religious aspect becomes just that. It becomes religion and not a relationship. You know, an issue of personal accountability, which is really what we need to, that's the heart of, I think, abstinence is, have you gotten to a place in your own life where enough is enough, where the media message of, you know, sex, sex, sex. I mean, you, I cannot, I was just watching the whole series, finales, you know, on all the major networks, and there is no one there that isn't getting, that isn't getting any. I mean, everybody is getting some. And if you're not, then there is a major issue.
9:35🔗AdamWell, look, obviously, sex sells. People are excited, and everyone is a voyeur to some extent. But I really just suggest pounding away on the women, scaring them.
9:46🔗Dina TawfikWe are. I think you're right. Not scaring them.
9:48🔗DrewNot scaring them. But not scaring them, because most of the abstinence-only education is done out there is sort of reefer madness education. And kids will cut down their activity for three months, and there's a rebound and an over.
10:08🔗CallerI'm going to make this short and simple. Does a guy ever ask a girl to go to King's Minion or out somewhere just as friends or is he always trying to get close to her or something?
11:07🔗DrewYeah. If you don't have the judgment to understand, A, that this guy is behaving unethical, inappropriate, and probably ways that are specifically against the rules at your place of work, and that you would allow a predator like this to come into your life, where have you been victimized in the past?
11:23🔗CallerI haven't. I've had like a normal life.
11:25🔗AdamWell, she hasn't done it. She's calling. Where do you work?
12:02🔗AdamYou know, it's funny and it's so sad. And I feel bad when I say this to women, but especially the ones under 20. I know you guys think you have a good personality. No, you don't. None of you. We don't want to talk to you about anything. Well, it's true, Drew. At age 30, did you want the companionship?
12:22🔗AdamYes, you just wanted the exchange, the verbal exchange with an 18-year-old.
12:27🔗DrewI had finished residency, been practicing medicine for three years. Yeah, I would like nothing more to talk to than somebody who just got out of high school.
12:32🔗AdamWell, listen, I had half a junior college education. I still don't want to talk to women my own age, for Christ's sake.
12:38🔗DrewWell, that's just because they don't want to talk to you.
12:40🔗AdamI mean, present company excluded, of course. Thank you. This guy's an idiot. Don't go with him. It definitely means something. Angela?
12:53🔗CallerI just have a question. I really never had too much of a serious relationship, but when I meet like a guy, I always seem to want to be with them. And I don't know if that's like normal.
13:04🔗DrewYou mean when you have sex with them the first time?
13:42🔗CallerIt's kind of weird. If I have like an opportunity to I'll do it like I'm kind of in a relationship now when that's kind of like happening, but I hadn't been in one for like at least a year.
14:01🔗CallerWell actually it's this guy that I know from my work and like well I had just met him and I thought he was like really really cute and like things just like happened really fast and I don't...
14:57🔗AdamSo you're scared to connect with guys. So you just turn it into a sexual thing and even when the guy wants more than that, you don't commit to that.
15:06🔗DrewIt's not so much you can't connect with guys, you've never been. That's who you are, that girl who's not connected to guys.
15:12🔗AdamSo don't turn it into a sexual problem, it's an emotional thing. I mean, you know, you go to the therapist, read a book, take a walk.
15:19🔗DrewThat or what you can do is try to delay the sexual relationship and see if it's going to be scary for you. You're not going to know what to do.
15:25🔗CallerBut that's what it's like so hard because I was going to try to delay this one and it just didn't work.
15:29🔗DrewWell, the guys are going to oblige you every time. So you're the one that can have to hold the boundary and it's going to have to be uncomfortable. How would you suggest somebody to deal with it? Because this is a real emotional issue for her where if she doesn't have sex, it's a real relationship, it has real intimacy, real feelings that she's never experienced before.
15:45🔗Dina TawfikWell, Angela, I would first suggest, I think you need to figure out what your goals are in this relationship is your goal to because if your goal continues to be what it is then you're going to continue on this track of getting with guys and you know having sex with them and then things don't work out and it's a cycle. And so the goal needs to have are you are you looking to be in an intimate long term relationship with somebody and if you are then sex is not the way to approach that initially.
16:18🔗AdamAll right. I agree. And this is again not a sexual problem. Tammy. Yeah.
16:24🔗DrewThat's actually the one thing she's got together.
16:30🔗AdamTammy you're 13. You're on with Dina Tawfik. She is here from Sex, Love and Choices is an organization that goes from school to school and yells at chicks about having sex. Come on. It's called Spade and Spade. Tammy.
17:02🔗AdamYeah. Somebody walked in. Yeah. She wanted to. Well, geez, I don't know if we should say just in case the radio still on. Well, listen, Tammy, turn that radio down. She was nervous, nervous about giving her boyfriend a hand job.
17:24🔗Dina TawfikOkay. Tammy, stay away. Stay away from the penis? Well, not to mention there are a list of sexually transmitted diseases at this point that are all transmitted skin to skin or many of them. The most common, which we never ever hear about human papillomavirus, commonly known as warts.
17:50🔗DrewIt is. But it's possible. It's almost impossible for the virus to penetrate the palms. You actually have to get it here if you're going to get it on the fingernail.
17:58🔗Dina TawfikI agree. It's very difficult. But it is skin to skin transmission. I mean, we see pictures all the time.
18:04🔗DrewAnd you can get herpetic Whitlow and stuff too. But people, strangely, when they get these diseases on their hands, no big deal. They don't care about them.
19:02🔗AdamNo, because it feels dead and I don't like the way it feels. It's a weird, it's like putting the tongue on the roof of your mouth.
19:09🔗DrewI ask my surgeon friend to have your hand match your soul.
19:13🔗Dina TawfikWait, so real quick to Tammy again, not to mention, no hand jobs, all the emotional, I believe, ramifications of any sort of sexual involvement are present when you do stuff like that. I mean, that's intimate stuff.
19:27🔗DrewBut so again, so the point really is that there's an advantage to modesty and chastity.
19:31🔗Dina TawfikI mean, it's beyond an advantage. What's the worst that can happen?
19:34🔗AdamWell, and it's also a slippery slope because if you're giving handies at 13, you're giving the world a year later.
20:21🔗AdamWe got to take ourselves a little break. Dina Tawfik is our guest tonight. She is with an organization called Sex, Love, and Choices. Hey, Dina, do you want to give a website or phone number or something else?
20:33🔗Dina TawfikYeah, phone number to get one of our presentations into schools is 562-398-6106.
20:55🔗AdamI'll tell you that I loved an assembly when I was in school. Anything to get up and walk somewhere other than the cooler, which was the classroom. And you know, the only... I really got screwed scholastically. I had one field trip... No, two field trips and one assembly in my entire school. One field trip, as you know, was to Laurie's, the seasoning plant.
21:27🔗Adam.to a twelve year old than seeing where the taco seasoning is manufactured. And actually getting a packet of taco seasoning to take with... Do you realize how worthless that is to a twelve, thirteen year old kid? Yes, taco... I think I still have that God damn thing in my wallet. Oh... Useless. Yeah, even Huel Hauser probably turned down the L'Arri people, said it wasn't fascinating enough. And this is a guy that does two hours on churros. The second one I went to was Alvera Street, which is... anyone who lives in the Los Angeles area, this is just basically the big cop out when it comes to field trips. It's close by, it's technically somewhere else, but let me tell you something, all of Los Angeles is Alvera Street. Alvera Street is everywhere now. It's a bunch of Mexicans selling marionette, and again you could capitalize on a churro or maybe a soft taco or something. That was worthless. And the one school assembly I had, LeBeau from Hogan's Heroes, the French guy, he came in and talked about the Holocaust. Talk about...
22:33🔗AdamYeah. I'm sitting there at 17 going, Jesus Christ, let's go back to Lorry's. All right. I was about ready to climb into the oven after about 10 minutes of LeBeau going on about the Holocaust. Well, these are wonderful stories. Thank you, dickhead. We'll take ourselves a break. We'll be right back.
23:28🔗AdamHey, there you go, everybody. It's Loveline. I like this song. Who is this man? We must know this guy. Oh, yeah. Some 41. That's right. Good guys. Oh, yeah. They'll be on June 21st.
23:48🔗AdamDina Tawfik is our guest tonight. She is from Sex, Love, and Choices. This is a organization that is pro abstinence. It goes to schools, talks to kids about holding off until after they tie the knot. I agree with her. I know it's totally unrealistic.
24:20🔗Dina TawfikAnd it's completely realistic for me. Because I don't get myself- I try not to get myself in situations where it doesn't become unrealistic.
24:29🔗AdamRight. Like trapped in a small room with a couple of very striking young men who do radio. Drew's missing that whole angle there.
24:42🔗Dina TawfikI couldn't even say it on the air.
24:44🔗AdamDrew. Yeah. Your mom wants you to marry a doctor. All right. So wait a minute. Here's why it's unrealistic. And here's what I've learned from this show. The people you got to worry about most are the people who are almost, it's almost a biological mandate that they have sex. These are the young girls whose daddy wasn't around, whose daddy may have drank, whose daddy may have beat on them or who may have been sexually abused, who did not have any kind of male guidance in their life. So all men become daddy. And stopping a woman like that at 14 or 15 year old, at 14 or 15 years age is just damn near impossible.
25:30🔗Dina TawfikBut see, I think that's assuming, that's assuming that that's the way it's got to be. I mean really because if there's a biological mandate for that, then there should be a biological mandate for rape and for all kinds of other things that we don't want people to get into, but they end up getting into. So I think that's a cop out.
25:50🔗DrewWe would say that there is, and that's why you have to create these very, very powerful laws that prevent them from doing it.
25:54🔗DrewOtherwise they'll do it, because there is a very powerful biological mandate. So the only way you can stop the women is with some other sort of extremely powerful countervailing force.
26:03🔗Dina TawfikBut there is, what about the note of personal responsibility, you guys? I mean.
26:08🔗AdamOh, listen, that's all great. Why don't we just go into the prisons of the world and explain to the guys when they're paroled that they need to be accountable and that they can no longer commit crimes. But the problem is, is they're not going to listen to that, because they're effed up on a level that doesn't permit that kind of influence to get to them.
26:29🔗Dina TawfikNow. I think you're right. I think to a certain extent, we got to kind of cut, believe that the reality is that not everybody is going to be, not everybody that hears the message in these schools is going to be a master.
26:41🔗DrewI think you got to have like, the people that are screwed up and are sexually compulsive. I don't mean bad, they've got issues, and that makes them that way. Shouldn't be glorified as merely liberated. I mean, the Kim control character on Sex and the City. Yeah, she's a mess. And you hear people say, oh, she's a liberated, just expressing her sexuality. This is a very, very disturbed woman.
27:05🔗Dina TawfikWell, we got to find a way to justify it. If we don't do that, it's not justifiable.
27:09🔗AdamWell, we should call her Captain McSlutty or something like that. We should change her character's name too.
27:15🔗Dina TawfikHow about not having her character at all?
27:18🔗DrewWell, how about having her character but looking at it realistically, at the pain of somebody who's actually engaging in those kinds of behaviors. Not glorify that as something that should be normative.
27:55🔗CallerAnd had oral sex. I was with the girl, she was with a guy, and then we split up and then.
28:03🔗DrewYou know, relationships can not handle this kind of thing. Well, you know that, they're divorced. But wouldn't it be great if we lived in a world where it could, where it would work?
28:10🔗AdamYeah, but then it wouldn't be enticing anymore. We wouldn't be interested in it.
28:15🔗CallerWell, that was way before we were married.
28:18🔗DrewYeah, but relationships can't handle this kind of thing. I'm married or unmarried.
28:21🔗AdamAll right, well, let's not beat the guy up.
28:24🔗CallerWell, so we got herpes. I get a breakout, you know, every couple months. Mostly where I get my breakout is on my ear. And lately, when I get on my ear, it's like.
28:38🔗CallerYeah, but usually I can like stop the breakout, you know, with the acyclovir, right? You know, feel that little tangle, start popping the pills. And it usually doesn't happen. But lately, when it happens, like my gland right below my ear gets really swollen. Is that normal? Yep. All right.
28:58🔗AdamWhat did the guy, did the guy get you in the ear? I mean, he used your ear and, you know, you know what I'm saying?
30:07🔗DrewYou can get it anywhere. I mean, the most devastating herpes infection is in the eye. And usually, though, when you've had it in one place, you don't inoculate other places. It's difficult to get it in two places simultaneously. But he was lucky enough to get it. And, yeah, the penis could be always contagious, though certainly very contagious if you have symptoms and maybe not contagious when you don't have symptoms.
30:27🔗AdamAll right. There. See, one more good reason not to have sex, everyone. Joe?
31:01🔗AdamUh, I think it was something that they got freaked out more about in the past. I think... I don't know what percentage of 18-year-olds are circumcised these days, Drew?
32:05🔗Dina TawfikOkay. So you're saying that, you know, in the future, you'd see yourself marrying a girl like this?
32:11🔗CallerYeah, like, if she wants to go farther in this relationship, and I don't want to hold that back just because, I mean, I'm not going to have sex with her.
32:24🔗AdamUh-huh. Uh, listen, just... Okay, so clean yourself up real nice. Do what I do. I take a balloon, I fill it with rubbing alcohol, and then I pull it over my penis and tie it off with a sandwich tie. At night. Oh, nice. It keeps my penis moist and sterile. Just clean yourself up and have at it. She's not gonna care.
32:48🔗Dina TawfikNo, how about just not endeavoring in that? Try that too.
33:36🔗DrewI have been pressuring for that for quite some time. It is bizarre to me that we're not on Philadelphia. That is a natural market. I think it will happen soon.
34:08🔗DrewSo are mine. I'm also from Philadelphia.
34:10🔗AdamI grew up... I shouldn't say grew up there, but spent quite a few years there as a youth. And my dad grew up there and was raised there. All right, Kate. What's up?
34:27🔗CallerI was thinking about having sex with a pretty good friend of mine this summer. And I was just wondering if you thought it might be the wrong thing to do.
34:37🔗AdamWell, we'll all take a stab at it. Why a friend? I mean, why not a boyfriend?
34:43🔗CallerOkay, because like I go away to school and like he doesn't and like he's here in Philadelphia. And so like we don't want to like have a big relationship. But we did last summer and like we're going to this summer too.
34:58🔗DrewI see. So if you were living in Philadelphia, you would be, this would be your boyfriend.
35:05🔗DrewOkay. That's not your best friend. This is a guy you were very romantically involved with. And why doesn't he want to try to maintain the relationship, you know, from Connecticut is not that far away. I mean, it's a train ride.
35:35🔗DrewYeah, but you come home plenty to maintain a relationship.
35:37🔗AdamBut when you're 16 and you're in love with a guy or in fact, he is not in love back, that's the problem here.
35:45🔗DrewKate, that's the problem here because if he said to you, I want you my girlfriend, I love you, we'll make it work out, tell me you wouldn't do that in a heartbeat. But he's like that. No, but he's not your best friend. You're romantically involved with him. If you have sex with him, you're going to get bonded with him in a way that's going to be extremely painful for you because he doesn't have the same romantic interest in you. In terms of what he feels about you, you're a friend and he'll accept the sex, Kate. He'll accept it. No problem. But that's not because he's in love right now.
36:18🔗Dina TawfikThat's right because it will be friends with benefits, isn't that right?
36:22🔗CallerLike I want to go out with him for the summer.
36:24🔗DrewWell that's fine. Then why don't you first make it clear that you want him to be a boyfriend? Why don't you establish that? And if that's starting to work out, then fine. Whatever you want to do.
36:43🔗CallerHe doesn't completely know. I mean, he's sort of...
36:46🔗DrewKate, you must make it very clear to him. And whatever he does in response, you've got to be honest with yourself about.
36:52🔗AdamAnd why isn't he in on this? I mean, yes, I agree with Drew.
36:56🔗CallerBut how do I make it completely clear? What if he's like, I'm sure he's like, I don't know, you know, you're afraid of what he's going to say back.
37:04🔗DrewThat's why you can't make it completely clear. And if if he says back, I'm not up for that, you have to accept that because that's what you're dealing with.
37:11🔗AdamI think she has the feeling he's not up for it.
37:22🔗AdamAre you now the final nail in the sex coffin?
37:25🔗Dina TawfikDo you are you do you want to have sex with them so you can keep this relationship? Are you sure? Is it sounding like that a little bit?
37:33🔗CallerI really don't think like that would like, I don't know, like I think I'm going to go out like no matter what.
37:38🔗AdamAll right. Why are you going to boarding school?
37:42🔗CallerLike a good boarding school. It's not like a bad people boarding school.
38:03🔗CallerYeah. You see her a lot like the guys, too.
38:06🔗AdamOkay. Let me explain something when you're listening in on a call. The idea is to do it in a stealth type manner, not to be known. Not to be rattling.
38:17🔗AdamDriving in a 16-penny nail with the phone receiver, and distracting the people you're speaking to, to the point where they say, what is that? Yeah, just tell her to sit still.
38:57🔗DrewKate. Kate. Kate's friend. What's your name? Les? Leslie? Liz. Liz. Liz. Listen, make Kate see reality. If this guy, make it clear to him that you want to be the boyfriend and the girlfriend. If he's not up for that, listen to that. He's being honest. Guys are not persuaded by anything. Not by sex especially.
39:17🔗Dina TawfikThat's right. And this is the type of relationship, as soon as our friend Kate gives it up, it's the relationship sounds like it's not going to last for too much longer.
39:26🔗AdamNaming your kid Liz in Connecticut is a big mistake because they pronounce it Lez. You know, she said it a few times.
39:35🔗AdamYeah. This is, what's your name? Is it, we couldn't make it out and she was like, it's a, no, no, it's a Lez. Lez. It's like, what, your grandmother was a lesbian and there's some sort of a mind. No, no, no, you know, like, Elizabeth.
40:26🔗AdamIt is Loveline. I'm Adam Carolla. That's Dr. Drew. Over there, everybody. I'm real excited that Brooke Burke is coming on here at the end of the week, the super attractive woman from Wild On, whatever that E! show is. And let me tell you, I've said it many a time and remind me to say to Brooke when she comes around, more pornography on E! than any other goddamn channel on cable. I do the man show, I get a certain amount of crap for putting the chicks on the trampolines at the end of the show. There's other stations that get a certain amount of, MTV always is used as sort of the whipping boy for the sexuality and the chicks gyrating in the bikinis. Turn on E! anytime, anytime, and you will see just, it's the thong back channel.
41:21🔗AdamEntertainment, and basically what it is, is because things fall under the veil of entertainment, like we're going down to Cannes to take a look at the film festival, well they just go right to the beach and film porn stars the whole time, but it's some sort of newsworthy story that they're doing over there, it's all TNA, and I'm happy for them, I just want to know how they're getting away with it. No one ever says anything. Their whole thing is, yeah we're going on the set of a porn film, we're going into a hot tub with porn stars, it's nothing but thong back ass, there's more tiled out boobs on that show, more blurred boobs, pixelated boobs, it's amazing, and nobody complains about it, they never go, you know, the problem with the decay in society and the rampant sexuality is the e-channel, you know, it's always MTV or Playboy or Hustler or Comedy Central or something.
42:22🔗AdamDina Tawfik is our guest tonight, she is one of the folks from Sex, Love and Choices, is a group that preaches abstinence to younger people, and we agree. Nicole, good luck, but we agree. You're 16, what's up?
42:41🔗CallerI just had a question because I'm messing around with this one guy, and he asked me if I ever considered having anal sex, and I kind of am now, and I just wanted to know how to prepare.
42:51🔗DrewHey, hey, hey, answer. Just slow down here. What was the opening volle here? You wanted to, what?
43:12🔗AdamYou guys ever see the beginning of Kung Fu? Remember the show? I take that red hot thing and I put my wrists up against it, and then I snatch the pebbles. And a lot of work with a bamboo stick and walk on rice paper.
43:26🔗DrewAnd there is that book by Stanislavski too.
43:29🔗AdamWhat's that? Preparing for anal sex? Anal sex in you?
43:35🔗CallerLots of doctor PhDs have been written on it.
46:29🔗AdamYou shouldn't be entertaining doing anything with this guy except for calling the cops.
46:33🔗CallerBut it's not that I don't like it though.
46:36🔗Dina TawfikNicole, let me say something to you. I mean, I think what they're trying to get at, anal sex is never, from any woman I've ever spoken to who's experienced this, this is not a pleasure-filled experience. Are you hearing what I'm saying?
46:53🔗DrewWe actually have talked to him. They claim that we gotta go to break.
46:56🔗AdamHold on, we go back to her. No, we're not. Nicole, this guy's a criminal. I don't know what's going on with you, but you stay away from him.
47:03🔗DrewPeriod. I don't care what he wants to do to you, stay away from him.
47:05🔗AdamI don't even want you to put your anus on a stick, a ten-foot stick and put it near him, if that's possible. Alright, we'll take a break. Yep, Loveline, everybody. Phone number 1-800-LOVE-191. I'm Adam Corolla. That is Dr. Drew. Dina Tawfik is our guest tonight. She is from Sex, Love and Choices. This is an organization that goes around to schools and other places, right? Right. Churches. And you don't need to go there.
48:19🔗Dina TawfikOh, let me tell you, I think sometimes we need to go there more than we need to go to the schools. But you know, you guys, I realize that if abstinence really takes off, you all might be out of a job.
48:47🔗CallerHi Dr. Drew. Big fan of the show. Thanks. I have a question for Dina. I have a bachelor's degree in sociology and psychology, and I was considering maybe going back to get my teacher's certificate. If there was room in a high school curriculum for maybe teaching social responsible behavior for a whole semester, or I have an interest in education, but I didn't know if maybe, like if there's any room in the high school curriculum for that.
49:26🔗Dina TawfikWell, I actually was out in Kentucky last year, and let me tell you, if there's room anywhere, there's room in Kentucky curriculum. So-
49:46🔗AdamIs the deal that if you preach abstinence, it's considered a religious message?
49:52🔗Dina TawfikI think that's how we've been token. Now, let me just be totally real and tell you all that for me, personally, it's because I have a relationship with God and because abstinence sort of came out of that for me. But, and I think for some reason, we've been all grouped into that sort of arena. But the reality is that abstinence is working regardless of religious affiliation.
50:23🔗AdamDo you have a relationship with God or Jesus Christ?
50:27🔗Dina TawfikI have a relationship with Jesus Christ.
50:29🔗AdamDo you have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ?
50:31🔗Dina TawfikOpposed to a corporate relationship?
50:33🔗AdamWell, people talk about having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, but they don't have a personal relationship with God as much. Is that because he's higher up the ladder?
50:41🔗Dina TawfikWell, Jesus Christ, man, God, okay, so we're all there. Now, to answer your question, I'm sorry, what was his name? Kevin. To answer your question, yes. I've seen lots of classes where they've called them life skill classes.
50:59🔗DrewAgain, my understanding is that a lot of schools are resistant to giving life skills, and they're big on sort of abstinence scare messages, like if you were going to die if you have sex, that's sort of the approach.
51:10🔗Dina TawfikWell, people ask me all the time, are we a fear-based organization? Heck yeah, we're a fear. I mean, there is a genuine, healthy fear to having sex outside of a monogamous marriage. Yes, so there's, now am I scaring them out of having sex? No, I think I'm, I relay personal experiences and realistic consequences to having sex.
51:34🔗DrewIf there's something to be afraid of, shouldn't you be preaching or discussing the fact that the emotional consequences are very likely to occur?
51:42🔗Dina TawfikTo great, great detail. I actually think that the truth is that in dealing with, especially teen girls, I find that the best way to deal with it is to discuss the emotional consequences.
51:55🔗AdamHey, hey, Kevin? Yeah. I'd like you to do me a favor. Sure. Once you get that teaching credential and you get in the Kentucky school system there, I would like to see a class at every high school called, So, You're Not Going To College. Basically, which is this? Here's how to fill out an application, you know, at a fast food place. Here's how to balance a checkbook. Here's how not to get your girlfriend knocked up. Here's how to possibly beat a moving violation, you know, when the cop pulls you over. He should have you come in as a guest. Oh my God.
52:35🔗CallerThey'll get most of that stuff on their way out of jail.
52:37🔗AdamYeah, I mean, Kevin, you really got to just get... There's nothing...
52:42🔗DrewHey, don't... Wait a minute, don't overestimate, don't idealize what your students are going to be like. He thought that would be applicable for people who are getting out of jail.
52:50🔗DrewHis perfect students, no, no, no, they're going to be...
52:52🔗AdamWell, here's the thing with most high schools, and I know, Drew, you went to the Little Lord Fauntleroy School for albino hemophiliacs, and 100% of your graduating class went off to some sort of higher form of education.
53:09🔗AdamBut at your normal city high school, I would bet that a good 65, 70% of the students were not going off to four-year education. And when I was in high school, well, certainly 100% of the people I knew weren't going off, but even as far as going to a four-year, some people were going to junior college, but that's just an extension of high school. It's high school with ashtrays. The other half were going to go to do some military whatever. And again, that's just guys, that's junior college with guns. Basically, I mean, a smallish percentage were going off to a four-year university, yet the school pretended like everyone was going. And that's how the curriculum was set up. Really, the majority of the people aren't going to that. So let's get realistic and see if we can help the majority. Not stay out of jail, not get anyone pregnant, not pick up a venereal disease, so on and so forth. I'd like to do a whole class on just how not to piss off your stepdad or stepmom so you could squeeze another couple years at home before they boot you. Before the garage. I could do that. Yeah. All right. Let's talk to... Is that what we're...
54:28🔗CallerYes. What's up? Well, I have a boyfriend that is in jail, in federal jail downtown, and he gets me to like dance for him. And I've been going to like over and over again.
54:54🔗DrewWhat do you mean dance for him? What does that mean?
54:56🔗CallerLike, there's... Somehow, he got... Well, his window... There's an area where I could go and there's like an indentation where I could lean in and you can't be seen from either side. And he'll knock on the window if there's someone coming out of the building.
55:32🔗CallerHe... I don't know. He has this way of getting me to do whatever he would like.
55:39🔗AdamYeah. Hold on, though. I'm still kind of curious. It's daylight. Are you indoors or outdoors?
55:45🔗CallerWell, it's near the end of the day. So, less people are walking out, walking around. Like, I've been caught before by a guard. And he told me to come during the day, because it was the weekend, that I would mix in better.
56:18🔗AdamIt's always so painful to try to get our callers to explain anything at all. Listen, I get a drunk chimpanzee with a paintbrush up his ass could paint a clearer picture than our callers could.
56:33🔗CallerThere's many entrances to the federal building.
58:22🔗AdamThe guy was an A-hole, then he goes to jail. All of a sudden, he's Mr. Sweet because he wants you to do the hoochie coochie outside of his window.
58:30🔗CallerI understand that, but I mean, I mean, because he...
59:14🔗AdamOkay. You understand that everyone who's listening to this call is rolling their eyes. Actually, they've come full circle. They started and went around like a slot machine. This guy is a world class A-hole, and you sound like you should be on medication for even entertaining the thoughts that you entertain with this guy.
59:32🔗CallerWell, he wanted me to mention that. I have thought of dating his brother because his brother is like... He's probably listening right now.
59:42🔗DrewSofina, is that supposed to make this more justifiable in some way?
59:56🔗AdamSofina, here's what I'd like you to do. Because this guy may be paroled soon and kill me. Do not, do not... Listen to me. Do not date his brother.
1:01:10🔗CallerWell, first of all, I'd like to say thanks for helping my brother out. He called in like a long time ago and he was Jeb and he circumcised himself in counseling.
1:01:35🔗CallerI wanted to say thank you. But I have these spots all over my chest and mainly on my back. And they're red. And they're just like the size of probably smaller than a dime.
1:01:46🔗DrewThat's a rash. Alex, why don't you get that evaluated?
1:01:49🔗CallerWell, I've gotten two doctor's opinions. One said it was from stress. They were just spots from stress. One said they were possibly ringworms.
1:02:07🔗DrewWhy don't you get some Selson Blue shampoo just in the pharmacy and drink it, right? And use that like a soap every time you take a shower.
1:02:46🔗AdamLet's just eliminate the worm. What else is that? What do they call that? Lupus or something? What do they call that? Not lupus. They got another word for ringworm, don't they? They're not a technical term for it or something? Yeah, there you go.
1:03:10🔗CallerWell, there's this girl I've been talking to. Well, I met her in the fifth grade, but she moved out of town and I ran back into her, you know, and, you know, we got sort of talking these weeks, phone numbers, but I know I'm taking forever, but I'll cut into it.
1:03:25🔗CallerI fell in love with her, you know, and, you know, basically my whole life, I pretty much hated everybody, you know, and, you know, I fell in love with her, and we were really good friends. It's gotten to the point where we could talk to each other about anything. I mean, we could use a restroom practically and talk on the phone. It was funnier. And then I told her how I felt, you know, it took me four months to tell her. And it seems like ever since then, you know, we haven't been as good as friends. But now, like, I'll tell her how I feel and stuff, and she'll either get mad or she'll go post on me, like, don't talk that way.
1:04:03🔗AdamYou mean when you tell her you love her?
1:04:05🔗CallerYeah. And when I tell her she's beautiful, she practically makes a comment that she doesn't think she's beautiful. And like, when we go out in public and stuff, you know, it's sort of like she spends more time talking to everybody else than me, and you know.
1:04:42🔗CallerYeah, but I want to keep it on friends for now and let it grow. But the real mistake I think I've made that really scared her away is, you guys know who the doors are?
1:05:01🔗CallerBut I went out and bought her a $120 dollars box set. You know, I work at McDonald's. It takes forever to work the money up for that. And I got her it.
1:05:46🔗AdamAnd you guys are friends, and that's the way she'd like to keep it. And all the talk about romance and relationship freaks her out. And you're going to have to accept that. And why not take some of that energy and channel it towards someone who likes you back romantically?
1:06:01🔗CallerYeah, but I'm not contradicting you on saying this right here, because I totally believe what you guys are saying. But her friend that talks to her all the time, that I've known since the third grade, just down told me, like a week ago, that Tonya said she had some feelings towards me.
1:06:17🔗AdamForget it. Let me paint that picture. I'll kill myself if Tonya doesn't have feelings for me. Oh, she's got some feelings toward you. Maybe not the same feelings you have, but some feelings. But she has feelings, right? Well, some, good enough.
1:06:33🔗DrewGood, because I'd kill myself if I thought otherwise.
1:06:36🔗AdamHey, Scott, she ain't into you that way. Don't you think she would have let you know by now?
1:06:47🔗AdamYou would know. What do you mean doesn't tell anyone? She freaks out every time you tell her how beautiful she is and how much you love her. Scott, this is reality talking, okay? She ain't into you that way. Every second you spend on her in that way is a waste of time.
1:07:07🔗DrewAdam's wish that someone had talked to him this way.
1:07:12🔗AdamYou can't want it enough for the two of you. And there's something about being 16 and being a male that makes you think that is possible, which is, well, it's okay. She's not into me at all. I'm into her 200%. And you split that in half, you got 100 each way.
1:07:31🔗DrewThey never tell you what they mean anyway. And she'll be around.
1:07:35🔗AdamAnd these guys can exist off a poppy seed of love for months and months and months. All she has to do is throw away one, oh, no, you're not ugly. You're kind of cute. After the guy says, don't you think I'm ugly? Or I'm going to kill myself because I'm so ugly. And they'll live off of that for years.
1:07:54🔗DrewBut usually these ones that are set up this intensely, there was a moment in the early phase of their relationship where there might have been a little possibility of something and then pow, no, forget it. And that's what gets them going, that they let it go.
1:08:08🔗AdamAnd the sad irony is this guy working at Mickey D's making five bucks an hour before taxes and buying her the $120 Doors box set which, by the way, is literally a millionaire. I still can't afford that box set. He thinks that makes her love, it's gonna soften her up when really freaks her out just a little bit more.
1:08:31🔗AdamThat much further away. We'll be back to Dash the Dreams of yet another team after this.
1:08:41🔗Hello, this is Loveline. 1-800-LOVE-191. Loveline will be right back.
1:09:07🔗CallerHi, this is David Alan Greer, and you are listening to Loveline with Adam Corolla and the one and only Dr. Drew.
1:09:16🔗AdamHe is, you is. Dina Tawfik is our guest tonight. Sex, Love and Choices is the name of her organization. Goes around, travels the country, talks to young people at schools about abstinence and how that affects them and the choices they make. And it's sort of like what we do, except for we don't care and we don't travel. And we get paid ten times as much, maybe fifty. That's great. You know, Drew, we always complain about coming out on the losing end of everything. But look at us, we sit here on our fat asses up on our ivory towers, get paid twenty times as much as someone like poor Dean over there who's a flying coach and taking shuttles and staying in a crappy motel. If you only knew. And look at us up here on our ivory towers and we don't even care. Dice?
1:10:33🔗DrewNot enough to prevent a pregnancy. It reduces your, it gives you, it can give you breasts. It can take your testosterone low enough to give you a little breast enlargement, but it doesn't do enough to stop a pregnancy.
1:11:11🔗AdamOkay, but, hey, uh. Dice? Let me give you some real advice. Please, please listen. As you know, I'm a genius. You smoke the weed, you got yourself a nice fourteen-year-old you're banging around with, all that good stuff. I'm not going to talk you out of the weed. I'm not going to try to talk you out of the sex. But really, what I'd like to, I'd like to impress this on you. Do not get her pregnant. That will change your life in a very negative way.
1:11:38🔗DrewWell, I suppose it's true. We can't force these guys not to screw up their own lives, but to bring another life in and screw that up. Now we're pissed.
1:11:45🔗AdamNo, no. I'm not worried about the kid they bring in the world. I'm worried about me.
1:11:48🔗DrewYeah, but that kid is going to screw up your life.
1:11:50🔗AdamThat kid is going to end up carjacking me in 15 years or use up too much of my tax dollars.
1:11:57🔗AdamTry to sell me energy. Dice, do not get her pregnant. You must get her on some sort of birth control. You must use a condom. Whatever you got to do, don't get her pregnant and look into that morning after pill.
1:12:10🔗DrewDo you know what that is? Do you know what morning after pill is? No. It's a pill that she can take after sex if the condom breaks. And it works very effectively against pregnancy. It helps prevent pregnancy.
1:12:23🔗AdamAnd Dice, go easy on the weed too, because you weren't a genius before you got it in the weed. And now you're practically retarded because you're getting baked all the time. Okay?
1:12:32🔗DrewIt will damage your thinking and your brain.
1:12:35🔗DrewI'm sure he knows that the brain is where his thinking goes on. So I want to be a little clearer about that.
1:12:39🔗AdamLet me float a theory. I've not floated in a while. And nobody wants to talk about this because we do not approach drugs in a realistic way in this country. There are people that have a very high IQ that are very lucid, very articulate people. And if they want to smoke some weed and do some drugs and knock themselves down from 155 to 135 in the IQ range, that is fine. I have no problem with that even if they want to go from moderately intelligent to just average by getting baked every day, I'm fine with that too. Here's where the trouble is. There's a lot of you guys that are on the border of Retardville, as it is. And I know we don't like to discuss this.
1:13:25🔗DrewWhat's outside the border of Retardville? What town are you in?
1:13:45🔗DrewYeah, below Averageville. Yeah. And that's where the border to Retardville is.
1:13:48🔗AdamBut really, everybody, listen, there are super intelligent people. They're really dumb people. And then there's everyone in the middle. And we never do that. We never want to talk about that. But really, just close your eyes, picture people you know, picture your teachers, picture people you see on TV. There's a lot of retards, a lot of idiots. And then there's some real smart people. If you're almost retarded, if you're on, if you're straddling the border from below average Ville to retard Ville, or below average Berg, sorry, to retard Ville, and you supplement your diet with a lot of weed, you will then be in retard Ville. And that means you'll be a retard, except for you'll not be eligible for any of the benefits that retards get. So you're really screwed.
1:14:36🔗DrewBut you know, you're effectively a citizen of retard Ville while you're smoking. The problem I have is that the depression and the panic attacks and anxiety, all that stuff, stays with them possibly permanently. They get addictive disease on top of that. And that has a whole other sort of natural history to it than just being an effective citizen of retard Ville.
1:14:53🔗AdamWell, Dice, who would have been the mayor of below average Berg already, is now running for city council in retard Ville because of the weed. So what I'm essentially saying is a guy like Dice is going to have a tough enough time in life without the weed. He's already going to go to junior college, drop out and get a crappy job already. Now with the weed, game over.
1:16:03🔗AdamYeah. That's all right. And you're an intelligent guy who's just making yourself a little less intelligent. That's fine with me. I have no problem with that. Yeah. What about that hair growing up the shaft there, Drew? How far up does it go, David? Davis?
1:16:35🔗AdamAll right. By the way, if you're sporting that look at 17, that's going to be a tough road to hoe because the hair... And Drew, you have no hair on your body, even pubic hair, but I can tell you as a man who has a fair amount of hair, especially around the ass region, that that stuff starts coming on later in life. You take a look at a guy 22, 23, with his shirt off, he's not going to have much on his back, much on his chest, just little beginnings. Take a look at that guy in his mid-30s, there's quite a bit more. It does not stop. So if you're having a problem with penis hair at 17, you're going to be a mess at 40. So what should he do to remove that?
1:17:21🔗DrewWhat do we say? Just get a clipper, right? We had this call last week.
1:17:24🔗AdamYeah, just buzz it off. Just clip it off. And that whole wives' tale about hair growing back thicker or more abundant, like I was yelling about last week, what choice do you have?
1:17:35🔗DrewAnd by the way, what happened to our head? Why don't we all look like Chia's? Right.
1:17:39🔗AdamWell, the point is, is maybe we do. But I mean, maybe we would, but we get our hair cut once a month. Do you know what I'm saying?
1:17:54🔗AdamSo instead of getting a haircut every two months, you get it once a month. What choice do you have? I always love that when women walk around with that mustache. I got a diet blonde. Nice. Now you got a blonde mustache. Well, I can't trim it. It'll grow back thicker. Great. So you walk around your whole life with half a mustache. Everyone will look at that. Devon? Hi. You're 15?
1:18:18🔗CallerWell, I actually have a few, but I'll make it quick. First of all, Drew, does pot like speed up your metabolism by any chance?
1:18:26🔗DrewIt can make you feel anxious and it can make you raise your insulin levels to the point that you start feeling sort of jittery like you need to eat.
1:18:34🔗CallerYeah. Because like I have never met like a fat pothead in my life and they all eat more than I have in my entire life. So I was wondering, me and my friend both were, if that speeds up your metabolism.
1:19:42🔗AdamAnd right to, sorry, right to life. And we said, look, you hate abortions. And she said, oh, yes. And we said, well, they got this morning after pill you can take. It's really going to cut back on abortions. And she said, oh, no, not for that either. And then I said, well, then you're for abortions. And she said, no, I'm not. You want to get people to stop having sex, you better let them masturbate.
1:20:03🔗Dina TawfikWell, you know what, though, that's draw. I don't know that that is dropping the standard. I totally disagree because I've actually the reality of it is that I recently read a study that said that people that masturbate are actually more likely to end up engaging in sex, which totally makes sense because you're engaging in it mentally, obviously, in order to masturbate. And so it creates an atmosphere of desiring wanting sex. So that's, you know, the natural thing is that that is my, the natural problem with masturbation. Now there's also, I think, an issue of are you demonstrating, remember what we said what abstinence was? It's self-control, self-discipline, and the delay of self-gratification. Well, you are not practicing any of those three things when you're masturbating.
1:20:52🔗DrewHere's the real problem with that, though. There has never been a time in history ever when men have not masturbated regularly.
1:21:08🔗Dina TawfikBut here's the deal. I mean, not that I'm in every abstinent man's bedroom, but I do know many young men who are absent, have become absent, and don't have an issue with masturbation.
1:21:24🔗DrewThey're simply a biological reality, they'll build up and release.
1:21:28🔗AdamNo, eventually you just start shutting down and becoming a woman.
1:21:32🔗DrewNo, no, no, there still is always, there has to be wet dreams, there has to be.
1:21:37🔗Dina TawfikBut I'm talking about the conscious, you know, effort of masturbation. I mean, that's reality.
1:21:44🔗AdamWell, you're really, you're really asking for a lot. You're really asking.
1:21:51🔗AdamWell, listen, here's the other thing too as far as the studies go. I've, I used to believe in studies until I realized, here's how studies work. Hey, we're some fringe group who has a point to make, so go out and give us a study. And then if you come back with the wrong return, go out and do it again and crunch some numbers, whether it's 50,000 Americans dying of second-hand smoke every year, some other cockamamie bull-ass nonsense that people come up with. Of course, people who masturbate are more apt to have sex. I wouldn't say the masturbation leads them to sex. I would say people who have sex and are masturbated, you know, generally more sexual creatures. And so I don't know if there's a direct correlation there.
1:22:38🔗Dina TawfikI hear you saying it's asking too much. And who says there's something wrong with asking too much, though? Because what's the, so we drop, well, no, so we drop the standard, you know, to a place where it's so, I mean, the standard has been dropped so low in my generation, people have to crawl through the gutter to get to the other side. I mean, the bar is low.
1:23:02🔗Dina TawfikSo what is wrong with raising the standard to a place where at least you could try, you know, you try to achieve that. There is nothing wrong with that. And I will do that till my dying day.
1:23:12🔗AdamWell, I'll tell you what I, and I, listen, you're doing the Lord's work, I guess. Why doesn't he get off his ass and do it himself? But here's what I want to say. It's like you're trying to tell somebody to diet and you're saying, look, just stream water and celery. That's it. And the person's going, are you kidding? I eat like 15 Snickers a day and I drive in a circle through the Arby's, the Arby's window. I just actually keep going in a loop. I never stop because by the time I get around again, I've finished off what I've finished off and you're going, just stream water and celery. And what I'm saying is, tell them it's okay to have a cookie once in a while and let's see if we can get them on the diet.
1:24:00🔗Dina TawfikAnd what I'm saying is, I'm not saying that the exp- If you have, if you're abstinent and you've masturbated, that's it. It's all over. Let's, you know, no, that's not what I'm saying. But I'm saying is we can, we can say that with the reality of understanding that it might not pan out all the time. But to bring it to a place where, let's give them something to shoot for, let's stop dropping the ball on this generation.
1:24:24🔗AdamWell, she said shoot and ball. In her masturbatory way.
1:24:45🔗AdamWe'll be right back. Hey, it's Loveline, kiddies. I'm Adam Corolla. That is my partner over there, Dr. Drew. Brooke Burke is going to be in here at the end of the week from E, Wild On. I'll tell you, I am just madly in love with that woman. Spectacular woman.
1:25:40🔗AdamAnd another fine piece of ass, Dina Tawfik is our guest tonight. And that's a compliment. Sex, Love, and Choices is the name of her organization. They go out, they talk. Well, they do what me and Drew would do if we had time during the day. They go to schools and they convince kids not to screw. And God bless her. I really do appreciate what you're doing.
1:26:19🔗AdamAnd realized that, hey, listen, we know from this show, in theory, that everyone would be better if they had less sex and waited longer and did all of that.
1:26:36🔗AdamAnd I think our feeling on it is basically like this, getting back to the diet or whatever. Everyone would be better if they exercised every day. Everyone would be better if they ate organic fruits and vegetables. Everyone would be better if they did whatever, fill in the blank, that we don't get to do all the time. But you try to strike a balance and you try not to overdo it. And you do eat fast food every once in a while, but you don't eat it all the time. But once in a while you do and you don't beat yourself up for it. I think that's kind of how we look at sex around here, don't we?
1:27:13🔗CallerHere's my dilemma. I've been with my girlfriend for a little over a year now, and she's all into abstinence and everything. And I had much love for her and I still do. The thing is, it's getting kind of hard. It's already been a year now and I've been trying to be faithful, but lately I've been having this one girl that's really trying to get with me. She knows about my girlfriend and everything and she doesn't mind all of that.
1:27:37🔗AdamDoes your girlfriend want to get married?
1:27:40🔗CallerThat's the thing. She's not really looking for something that's serious right now, but you know, she still tells me that she loves me and she still tells me that she wants to, you know, go ahead and keep going.
1:27:51🔗AdamWell, wait, hold on a second. She's not having sex with you. She's not looking for anything too serious. Exactly. She may not be that into you. I mean, this thing probably on the way out, if it ever was in.
1:28:05🔗DrewPossibly. Or, and by the way, this other woman who doesn't mind the girlfriend, will as soon as you have sex with her.
1:28:53🔗AdamWhen I say if there's a cultural thing and then guess one of the wrong on one of the 50,000 cultures that are floating around Los Angeles, I don't have to be wrong.
1:29:06🔗CallerWell, yes and no. Yes and no. It's not like nowadays all of the Armenians follow that culture.
1:29:12🔗AdamYeah. But she may be one of them that does.
1:29:14🔗CallerMaybe. Are you in love with her? Well, I thought I was and I still do care about her and everything, but it's really getting in the way for me.
1:29:25🔗AdamHey, Dave. It really, I know it sounds like we tell everyone to break up, who calls this show, but break up. She does not sound that incredibly into you or the relationship, and you don't sound like a huge fan of it either. You guys are just kind of coasting along because you said you loved each other six months ago and you're trying to see that through.
1:29:47🔗Dina TawfikAnd Dave is just trying to get some of this point.
1:29:49🔗AdamShe's telling him, not only are we not going to have intercourse, but I'm not really in a stage of my life where I'm looking for anything serious. Hey, that's out. She's not in this thing at all. Usually she should be saying, look, let's get married or wait for me or something like that. She's not in it at all, and he ain't either. So just get out. Matt?
1:30:43🔗CallerAnd they say I most likely got a sore throat, because I share sores with people and stuff.
1:30:48🔗DrewYeah, it's passed through saliva and that kind of thing.
1:30:50🔗CallerYeah, but is there any medicine? I know there's no medicine that kill it, but is there like a medicine that help it go away?
1:30:59🔗DrewNot really. My mono patients, I usually put on antibiotics, because often it seems to me, the sore throat often has an infection on top of the mono.
1:31:08🔗CallerYeah, they said it had a, what do you call it?
1:31:11🔗DrewYeah, so it seems to get better quicker when you put them, at least the sore throat part does, but you're going to be sick for a couple of weeks and that's what mono is. It's got to run its course.
1:31:18🔗CallerYeah, they said the longest person that had it was for six months.
1:31:22🔗DrewWell, it's usually a couple of weeks and it's awful and it's miserable. I had it when I was 17.
1:31:41🔗AdamYeah. Still, when I was in school, I remember as a kid, be out for a month, I think, oh, that lucky son of a bitch. He struck gold. That mono, it's like luck of the Irish. Ron?
1:32:03🔗CallerI mean, it's happened previously. After that, I developed this sitting maneuver I call the hover, where I hover above the sea and it splashes but it doesn't get on me.
1:32:17🔗Dina TawfikLong-term maneuver for women there, by the way.
1:32:19🔗AdamThat's something for everyone else to deal with. Right. Plus, you know the guy I love, the guy who just takes the whole roll of toilet paper and just whizzes on the entire thing. Last porta potty I was in, the whole roll was sitting in that urinal, just doused. And I thought, ladies, you want to know what men are about? There you go. I will soak the roll completely.
1:32:48🔗CallerAnd now I have a rash around my rectum and it hurts really bad to walk and to sit and to pretty much do anything.
1:32:55🔗DrewSomeone's got to look at that. I imagine the most likely thing is actually a chemical reaction to the stuff they treat that with anything else.
1:33:03🔗AdamRight. All right. Good times. All right. Oh, what's up?
1:34:10🔗AdamWhatever it was, you'd missed out on a few.
1:34:12🔗DrewYeah, so you had to dose up tonight. I feel like we're back.
1:34:17🔗AdamAll right. Sex, Love and Choices is the name of the organization. Embrace them. Welcome them to your community or school. Dina, would you like to give that number out again?
