# Actual Sexual Advice Girl
Actual Sexual Advice Girl (ASAG) is an advice animal image macro featuring a brunette woman in black-rimmed glasses who delivers genuinely useful sexual tips for men and women. The series launched on Reddit in February 2013 and stood out from other advice animals by giving practical, non-joke advice.
## Overview
Actual Sexual Advice Girl, usually shortened to ASAG, is an advice animal image macro built around a photograph of a brunette woman wearing black-rimmed glasses[1]. Instead of the bad decisions or absurd non-advice that most advice animals traffic in, ASAG captions deliver real sexual tips aimed at both men and women[3].
The character sits in the same lineage as Actual Advice Mallard, the June 2011 advice animal that broke the format's joke convention by offering genuine life hacks[3]. Layouts follow the standard advice animal template, with a setup line at the top and the practical tip at the bottom, keeping the visual grammar familiar even when the content is more earnest than funny.
## How It Spread
Copycat entries showed up the same day. Redditor nurseladyherpaderp posted an ASAG macro giving fellatio advice to men, which pulled over 8,700 upvotes and 620 comments in three days[2]. A few hours later, Redditor katrionatronica submitted a version aimed at women, telling them to be more direct with partners about what they want. That post crossed 15,000 upvotes and 950 comments in under 72 hours[4], outpacing the original.
The images jumped platforms on that same February 11th, with both getting reposted to the humor site 9gag where each collected upwards of 20,000 upvotes and several thousand Facebook shares[5]. Reddit's r/AdviceAnimals stayed the main workshop for new captions, while user-generated entries piled up quickly on Quickmeme, which listed more than 250 Actual Sexual Advice Girl submissions by late February 2013[6].
## How to Use
The template typically uses the standard advice animal layout: the brunette-with-glasses photo centered, a setup line in white Impact font at the top, and the practical tip at the bottom. Common convention keeps the advice actually useful rather than joke advice, which is the whole point of the ASAG format versus something like Bad Advice Cat. Captions often address one gender directly ("Guys:" or "Ladies:") to frame the tip.
