It’s mind over matter with ‘mini’ member

Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: I’m a guy with what you would call very small equipment. It’s been a humiliating source of embarrassment for me, and it has held me back in dating. I eventually have to show what I don’t have, and the woman always looks kind of turned off. I don’t want to open myself to silent criticism anymore.

Hey there, time traveller!

Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: I’m a guy with what you would call very small equipment. It’s been a humiliating source of embarrassment for me, and it has held me back in dating. I eventually have to show what I don’t have, and the woman always looks kind of turned off. I don’t want to open myself to silent criticism anymore.

I’ve talked to other men anonymously on forums who tell me it isn’t the end of the world. Easy for them to say! I’ve had a couple of bad experiences already, and I fear there may be more in my future. What can I do?

Remedies online (suction devices, ‘medication’) look dangerous and are likely ineffectual. Are there women out there who don’t care about size?

— Big Guy with a Little Guy, Westwood

Dear Big Guy with a Little Guy: Some women care, others don’t. Women come in all sizes too, and some write me saying they’re unhappy with their mate’s large size, because sex with him hurts more than it feels good.

There are several non-surgical techniques for changing your experience to the positive. Some are simply different positioning that can change the whole sense of size and stimulation. Then you will know you can bring the magic and feel confident with a lady, instead of being embarrassed and apologetic, which only makes both of you feel awkward.

Check out psychologist Berit Brogaard’s Psychology Today article What To Do About a Small Penis, which is the most concise and helpful info I found in my research for you (wfp.to/whattodo). According to Brogaard, average erect penis size is a lot smaller than previously thought, mainly due to the fact it was based on self-measurement. It’s well worth reading and it’s not written in overly academic language.

 

Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: My live-in boyfriend has stopped wanting to have sex, and I don’t know what to do. He hates talking about our relationship and the last four times I’ve begged him, “Make love with me, please!” he has barely looked at me and mostly just sighed. Sometimes he comes up with a lame reason.

He used to have a great sex drive, and couldn’t get enough of me. I’m worried he might be cheating on me, and getting all the sex he needs before he even gets home at 7 p.m. each night.

He claims he’s having to work late because they are down several in-house staff. I’m thinking he might be going somewhere between 4:30 p.m. (when his work normally lets out) and when he gets home.

A couple of times lately he’s come home and his hair is damp, like he just had a shower. This isn’t my first rodeo. I know what that might mean. I feel lost and scared.

How can I get him to open up? But maybe I don’t want him to open up and blow my whole life out of the water.

— Loving Him and Missing His Closeness, Osborne Village

Dear Missing His Closeness: The two hours missing in action, the tell-tale damp hair, and his total lack of desire for you when he is home are definitely clues to another woman taking your place.

Looking the other way isn’t working for you anymore, or you wouldn’t have written. You’ve been pretending not to know for a while now.

Did you know some cheaters feel they are being true to their lover by not having sex with their wife anymore? This may be the case here.

Have you considered having him followed from work? A friend or acquaintance he doesn’t know could do it for you.

You could also just start making plans to leave — or ask him to leave — and tell him you can’t tolerate his absence from the relationship. It hurts way too much.

I know that seems like a tough thing to do, but girlfriend, it seems you already lost his interest some time ago! Breaking up this relationship would help you make the changes to have peace of mind and to find real love.

Suspension upheld for teen hockey player involved in hazing

Suspension upheld for teen hockey player involved in hazing

Free Press staff 3 minute read Yesterday at 2:10 PM CDT

A high school hockey player who was found to have been involved in sexualized hazing of rookie teammates lost his suspension appeal.

The youth player was barred from Hockey Canada-sanctioned activities. He was handed the four-year and nine-month suspension from sanctioned hockey after an interim ban issued in March 2024.

He appealed his suspension late last year to the Sport Dispute Resolution Centre of Canada, an independent conflict tribunal, but the centre upheld the youth’s suspension, according to a written decision issued earlier this year.

An independent investigator who probed the hockey player’s actions described the youth as a veteran player who both participated in and co-ordinated the “assigning” of rookie team members to veteran players to perform tasks for them. He himself was “assigned” a rookie, the decision said.

Hydro’s planned $3B gas turbines purchase misguided, bad for environment, critics say

Malak Abas 5 minute read Updated: 7:19 PM CDT

Despite defending a $3-billion gas turbine purchase as the most reliable power source in freezing temperatures, Manitoba Hydro’s gas turbines in Brandon have had outages during three of the 10 highest usage times over the past five winters — a sign that the Crown corporation’s long-term power plan needs re-evaluation, environmental groups say.

Main Street restaurant Boujee burns for the second time in one week

Aaron Epp 2 minute read Saturday, Aug. 8, 2026

A former restaurant on Main Street is set to be demolished after a fire broke out for the second time in less than a week.

Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service crews responded to reports of a fire at Boujee Restaurant and Bar, a vacant, single-storey building on the 100 block of Main Street shortly before 6 a.m. Saturday. The same building was most recently damaged in a fire last Sunday.

At the scene, crews found heavy smoke coming from the building. After attacking the fire using aerial ladders that sprayed water from above, firefighters arranged an emergency demolition of the building. Demolition is expected to be completed today, the WFPS said in a news release.

No injuries were reported and the fire is under investigation.

Jarvis brings Stanley Cup to where it all began

Grace Penner 5 minute read 5:34 PM CDT

Seth Jarvis and Lord Stanley had quite the homecoming celebration with thousands of fans lining up for their arrival — some even before the sun graced the sky.

The Winnipeg community showed up to cheer on one of their own, wearing memorabilia of all of Jarvis’s achievements, with Tuxedo Lightning, Team Canada, and Carolina Hurricane jerseys aplenty in the crowd.

The Tuxedo Community Centre — where Jarvis’s storied career all began — had fans from all walks of life lined up, circling the building and fields, for the opportunity to meet the Stanley Cup champion and touch the trophy themselves.

Throughout the line, lawn chairs were assembled, picnic blankets were spread out, and umbrellas were opened — all prepared for the long wait ahead of them.
