“Pay No Attention To That Man Behind The Curtain”
August 26, 2008 on 12:09 pm | In Uncategorized | 20 CommentsAllow me to rant.
My sister and I got into this discussion after watching the movie The Man Who Cried.
We were pissed because movies tend to perpetuate these portrayals of love and relationships that are a total crock.
They give an especially unrealistic view of men and sex.
Their male characters are perfectly infallible and one hundred percent consistent, don’t show an ounce of weakness and give absolutely perfect and not at all awkward sex all while being super duper hot.
We all want the same man (insert random totally unrealistic male film character here) but he doesn’t exist.
Exhibit A:
Just about any Johnny Depp character will do but we’ll go with his portrayal of Don Juan DeMarco, world’s greatest lover, for emphasis. Ignore the fact that he’s dressed like it’s Halloween.
Know any guys like that?
Exhibit B:
“Nobody puts Baby in the corner” Classic example.
Know any guys like this?
Exhibit C:
The reigning king of cinematic tragic romance…
Know any guys like that one? Even close? Didn’t think so.
Love songs are no better.
The songs tell you “you’ll always be my endless love” but most times what you really get is “bitches ain’t shit but hos and tricks”.
I remember visiting my ex’s parents out West. There was a large group of us at breakfast and my ex was lovingly telling the story of how we met. He ended the vignette by saying..”a match made in heaven”. I tried to catch myself before I made the face but the reaction was immediate. “Sometimes” I said in rebuttal. An uncle of his just laughed and said to me that there probably isn’t a woman on earth that thinks men are wonderfully infallible. “We’re screwing something up about every hour,” he said and went on to say that he admired the female gender’s patience with the men.
In general, I think that what people tend to expect form relationships and from their partners is just too much. Ordinary people aren’t always perfect and consistant. They’re not always considerate. They don’t always know what you want to need before you tell them and even if they do, who’s to say they’re capable or even willing to deliver it.
We are all of us searching for idealized version of human beings that none of us can possible live up to.
Try this. Accept your partner for who he or she is. I mean really, really look. Don’t try to rationalize and explain away their behavior. Just observe it. This is your partner. When people show you over and over again who they are, do yourself a favor and believe them. Don’t try to invent someone else. That person you invented is not there.
Just a man behind a curtain.

Moviesex - Eurotrip
August 13, 2008 on 1:51 pm | In sex in movies | Add Your CommentI LOVE this movie! Although I’ve seen it a million times, Eurotrip never fails to make me laugh hysterically.
In this scene, the gang ends up wandering around Amsterdam. Cooper makes it his mission to find a sex club (his goal for the trip was simply to have “hot European sex”.
As you can see from the clip, the sex got a little too hot for him.
Watching this makes me want to tie some poor, unsuspecting fellow down and ass rape him.
And I love Lucy Lawless’ dress.

With A Firm Hand
August 7, 2008 on 1:18 pm | In erotica | 5 CommentsAnd just who doesn’t love a good spanking?
My fondness for spanking began with a silly junior high school tradition called “Butt Week”.
It was just how it sounded; a whole week of horny teens and tweens smacking each other on the ass whenever opportunities arose.
We were precocious children.
And I’ve always loved asses. There’s nothing quite so primally beautiful as a pair of rounded cheeks. I’ve been known to goose my coworkers and friends, and I’m worse than a construction worker when it come to looking at asses on the street.
If you’re like me, and you love to pay homage to the ass every now and again, you will love this book.
The title is simply Spanked, and it’s the brainchild of the oh-so-spankable Rachel Kramer Bussel.
What’s it about? If you can’t figure it out by reading the title, watch this video:
The disciplinarians in this book wield their hands and other implements with such skill that their subjects moan, scream, cry and orgasm almost immediately on contact.
So far, my favorite is Tied Down by Andy Ohio (I’ve secretly always wanted to be strapped with a belt).
My advice; have your master, mistress, significant other, booty call on speed dial before you pick up this book.
You can get it here.
Also be sure to check out the Spanked blog for news interviews with the authors.

When Your Ex Reads Your Blog
August 5, 2008 on 9:39 am | In Uncategorized | 2 CommentsI recently discovered that my ex boyfriend subscribes to this feed.
Hi A.
At first, I felt kinda funny about this.
It’s a complicated thing being a writer, especially without the cover of anonymity.
You’re tempted to censor yourself when you know that people you know, people you are close with or were once close with, will read what you write.
People act differently around you and toward you when they know there is a possiblity you’ll write about them.
Do you tailor your expression to make others comfortable?
Or do you stay true to your voice and your thoughts and your feelings no matter what?
No matter who you may piss off and who you may alienate?
Do you contantly issue disclaimers? Give a head’s up? Ask permission?
Case in point.
Chuck stumbled onto this post.
The post was complimentary enough. I didn’t go into great detail, but more than implied his sexual prowess.
What every guy wants to hear right?
But I called him an asshole in the comments.
He bristled. “I’m an asshole,” he asked, pretending to be wounded.
“You pissed me off the day I wrote that,” I answered.
“Oh. Well you should go back and write an addendum.”
But why should I?
It’s what I was feeling at the time. If I went back and said “ok folks, I take it back. Chuck’s not an asshole,” then I’m only cheating myself out of expressing what I want to express.
It was such a ridiculous request because no one knows Chuck. His identitity is know only to him and myself so it’s not like people are going to walk down the street pointing and say, “Look! there goes Chuck, the asshole!”
Not to mention that Chuck certainly does not have creative liscense over what I write. If he’s concerned about his online image, he should start his own blog.
And besides, I’m not wholly convinced that he’s not an asshole.The jury’s still out on that one.
I know that you leave yourself open for all kinds of shit when you put yourself out there, especially putting your business on the net where all the world can read.
But even so, this is my space. A safe space.
I’ll continue to write. People will continue to read.
Or not.
My advice: Don’t like what I’m saying? Don’t click through.
