'50 Shades of Grey' & BDSM

***Spoiler alert. I will be discussing plot points and details of the book in this post. If you do not want to read them, please read other posts in my blog :)*** So, I just finished E.L. James' 'Fifty Shades of Grey,' the book that has taken women of most ages by storm and is commonly being referred to as 'mommy porn.' Why is this? Because at first glance, it may appear to be a typical romance novel with the targeted audience being middle-aged stay-at-home-mothers in need of a fantasy, but a closer look shows that this is a book filled with chains and floggers and explicit sexual scenes. And when I say explicit...I mean explicit. The book is told through the voice of 21 year old Anastasia Steele, who follows her fate to interview 27 year old (I think this was his age?) CEO of his own company, Christian Grey, when her roommate becomes too sick to do it herself. She is immediately taken aback by his dashingly good looks, and is entranced by him. In the intervi...

Lust

I'm proud of myself for finally tearing my eyes away from the newest literary hype, 50 Shades of Grey. There will definitely be a blog post dedicated to the book when I finish (and I'm not too far from the end). And it fuels my desire to write this post, as the book has a central theme of lust. What is lust? Let's start with a boring definition.  Lust [ luhst ]   noun 1. intense sexual desire or appetite. 2. uncontrolled or illicit sexual desire or appetite; lecherousness. 3. a passionate or overmastering desire or craving (usually followed by for ): a lust for power. 4. ardent enthusiasm; zest; relish: an enviable lust for life. 5. Obsolete . a. pleasure or delight. b. desire; inclination; wish. If you're still not sure what lust is, look at this picture. The first three are the ones most interesting to me. Note the words they use in the definition, specifically: intense, ...

Happy National Condom Day!

Today is Pi Day, 3.14. And it's also National Condom Day! So, before you start eating pie off each other's bodies, make sure you have condoms!!! According to a fact sheet on HIV from the CDC (Center for Disease Control), 1.2 million people in the US have HIV and 1 in 5 aren't aware that they have it. So, you could be sleeping with someone who has it. This is only one reason to wrap it up!!! Syphilis, gonorrhea, herpes, genital warts, HPV, crabs, trich, etc. are all STDs you can get from sexual contact with someone. Notice I said sexual contact. You CAN get an STD from oral and anal contact. Even a cold sore (herpes) in your mouth can give your partner herpes on their genitals. This is pretty rare, but the point is, it CAN happen. You don't only have to worry about disgusting, painful, itchy, discharge-y sores and infections. Pregnancy is also a factor. According to Men's Health, Indiana University calculated some percentages from 16 years of data from 50 differ...

Sex, drugs, and ...more sex and drugs.

I'm super tired but wanted to write a blog post, so I brainstormed until I thought of something. Two of my favorite things--sex and drugs!! (Disclaimer: I do not do drugs). Drugs are fun. Sex is fun. What is it like to put two really fun things together? And then I realized I could write a blog post on how certain drugs affect sex drive and performance. Alcohol-- Drinking does a lot. One of the things it does is lead to one-night-stands. The old running joke that a woman gets more attractive the more a man drinks is not so much of a joke. Alcohol impairs judgement, loosens you up, lowers your inhibitions. So, that co-worker that always hits on you, but you never found very attractive could become your newest mark on your bedpost after a night of drinking. Some women even wonder whether or not they were taken advantage of after a night of drinking, since they were too drunk to remember whether or not they consented to an act of sex. But what does alcohol actually do to our sex dri...

“I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living.”--Dr. Seuss

" The gift of fantasy has meant more to me than my talent for absorbing positive knowledge. "-Albert Einstein                                                            Now this is what I call a fantasy. A few weeks ago, I entered a contest on the website Literotica.  I wrote a short erotic story for a contest (Cheating Heart--read it here ). I read a bunch of stories too, and I heard from a lot of other authors and readers. As of current, my story has nearly 15,000 views. Then I realized something--the power of fantasy is great. There are even people who can bring themselves to orgasm just by thinking their way to it (mostly women). Dr. Ian Kerner , a sex and relationship counselor and author, says, "The...

Puttin' the pussy on a pedestal

If you live in America, or have been in America at least for a short time in the past couple months, you are probably aware of who Tim Tebow is. Tim Tebow, #15 Quarterback for the Denver Broncos, rose to super stardom this past NFL season for his insane lucky wins in the 4th quarter/overtime, not once, but several times. An extremely religious young man, Tebow is known for getting down on one knee and resting his fist on his forehead--dubbed 'Tebowing.' Regardless of what you think about Tebow as a player or his beliefs, it's admirable that such a well-known NFL football player has such strong morals. He's praying he'll find a wife soon.  My point in this blog is that Tebow, a 24-year old NFL football player, is an admitted virgin. It's crazy to think that someone who is considered a famous athlete in this day and age could be so strong as to remain a virgin. Surely, being a rich, good looking athlete must bring hoards of women pawing for him. So, why is ...
