Corsets
The satiny fabric. The slow and careful snap of the hooks against soft flesh. The touches of trim or lace. Strong boning that tightens my waist and accentuates my natural curves.
Corsets. I love them.
For some, corsets may seem the very antithesis of what today’s woman might consider acceptable, much less enjoy. Yet I do. I [...]

Dear Future-Object-of-My-Adoration,
Let’s make things easier from the beginning, shall we? I enjoy a boatload of “stuff” – you know – good, touchy, playful, devilish, wild, tender… stuff. But don’t stick your tongue in my ear. Please.
Gross
I’ve been giving this considerable thought. For years. And I’ve reached the stage in life where I must speak out [...]

There is a dab of Chanel between my breasts.
Yes. Come closer.
I have poured myself a drink and spread myself out on top of the bed covers, propped against red pillows in all this turbulence. Sleeplessness tangles sheets and twists blankets; I give myself to the nightly storm. As for the rest of the room, [...]

Are you a hottie? Come on. Admit it. You’ve got to have at least one feature (or move) that you know drives your lover or spouse wild.
Hot, hottie, hot!
I happened to turn on Bravo TV’s Chef Academy while doing the dishes one night last week. OH MY HOT FLASHES. What a hottie that [...]

If we’re single, we’re thinking about sex. If we’re married, we’re thinking about sex. If we’re anywhere in between (over 12 and not dead), we’re thinking about sex. Are we getting any? There are clear indications that things are trending West… That is, after all, where the earth moves…
As for the rest of us, we [...]

“There’s been a shocking shortage of togas in my life,” she said on the phone.
I considered her remark for a moment, running through the past years of coffee dates, dinner dates, dessert dates, assorted cocktails. Cocktail napkins for that matter. Quite right. Not a toga among them. Hell, not even a Third Date toga. You [...]

First, check your teeth for a bit of broccoli. Use the rear-view mirror if you must, as he runs into the Seven Eleven for you-know-what. It’s the third date, and you’re GO for lift-off. Sex!
Kissing is key, but if you’re about to embark on Third Date Sex (TDS) you’ve already sampled the smooching in [...]

I just saw it again – the “P” word. Promiscuity. And I saw it in an article written by a woman, referring to a period in her life when she was actively exploring her sexuality.
I loathe the term “promiscuous;” it’s judgmental and gender-biased, implying engagement in indiscriminate sexual behavior with multiple people, and even the [...]

Is chivalry dead? Recently resurrected? Thriving in certain demographics and knocked off again in others? Will it rise once more in the fine muddle of commotion and controversy over opening doors, pulling out chairs, and picking up the tab on dates?
Chivalry – a resounding YES, on my planet
Chivalry is about courtesy and generosity. I [...]

Nudity in the privacy of our homes? We seem to be fine with that – well, sort of. But then there’s nudity on the beach, nudes in advertising, nudes in music videos, in film, and of course on the Internet.
What is it about nudity that disturbs us so? Why does it consistently cause controversy in this [...]
