They live in Fort Worth, but they dish out sex advice to people all across the country. Dan Baritchi, 31, from Brasov, Romania, and Jennifer Hunt, 40, from Weatherford, are the brains behind "Ask Dan and Jennifer" (askdanandjennifer.com), an online magazine and advice column for all things love and sex.

Dan and Jennifer: We ran an online dating site for a few years and noticed that people seemed to have more questions than answers.

Dan and Jennifer: "Ask Dan and Jennifer" started as a very simple blog. We now have the online magazine, more than 300 videos on YouTube, and the love and sex forums.

Q: What were you doing before this? Do you have "day jobs"?

Q: What are you hoping is the future of Ask Dan and Jennifer?

Dan and Jennifer: We want to challenge current beliefs and get people to question everything rather than blindly follow what they've been taught.

Q: What do you think is the most common misperception about sex?

Dan and Jennifer: That sex = love and love = sex. The two things normally come together (as in marriage), but they don't have to ...
