Sex Advice from Librarians
Nerve magazine has sex advice from four librarians in the latest installment of the “Sex Advice from…” series. Topics include picking up librarians, sex in the stacks, sexy words, femme lesbians, foot fetishes, erotic literature, and more. My favorite answer comes from the Lipstick Librarian:
How can I pick up a librarian?
Under no circumstances should you say, “I’ve always wanted to work in a library,” “Gee, it must be nice to read all day,” or, “So how many flashers do you meet in the stacks in a week?” These are sure-fire guarantees you’ll wind up with a glass of house rosé dumped in your lap or a Trader Joe’s carrot juice thrown at you.
FYI – You should also avoid saying, “I was a librarian once.” You were a shelver and photocopier, dude.
I love the “Sex advice from…” series.
It was nice meeting you guys yesterday.

Love this post.. great to know it’s a series as per Mike’s comment.
Angela.
So what are good pick-up lines for librarians?
I am thinking–read any good books lately will probably get you shot down pretty darn fast.
Michael,
Let me think about it – I may have to come up with a list and make a new post.
I’m assuming that if you show up on the right day, “how about you and I get the hell out of here?” works pretty well.
Chris – agreed.
way back when i worked in the campus library at Carson-Newman, we would often find heaps clothes, including underwear (male and female) in the ‘study rooms’. it sorta made me feel like the library was kind of a secretly cool place, where students would go for a poke. the librarian in charge of the facility did not appreciate my suggestion we make a new Carnal Knowledge section.
Joe,
I suspect that’s why our study rooms were designed with glass windows surrounding the doors.
Michael,
You should avoid all of these.
Any lines that begin with, “You’re a librarian? Wow, I read that you folks are doing some amazing things with X…” is a good one, especially where X is web 2.0, integration into medical teams, or anything else that is remotely innovative. Or, “You know, I bet most people have no idea how well-trained and well-educated you folks are.” Flattery will get you everywhere.
believe it or not, the study rooms at C-N did have windows surrounding them. i mean, dang, these folks were deeply committed to their lovin’!!
