50 Shades of, well, you know...

So, it's the novel that has reinvigorated the Sexual Revolution. Billed as "Mommy Porn", it's one of the best-selling novels of the year. This "coming" of age story (sorry-couldn't resist the pun) of a naive college student, an experienced older man and a pair of ben-wa balls is a must-have for every woman.

Or so they say. 

I tried. I really tried to read it, but ohmygoodgiddygawd, it was awful. I totally get it. It began as a Twilight fanfic and I had no problem substituting Bella and Edward for Anastasia and Christian. Truthfully I was really hoping that Christian was going to be a vampire. That would have been hawt. 

My long-held opinion is that while your kink may not be my kink, our kinks are still okay(as long as they are legal and no one is getting hurt, etc). Truthfully, handcuffs make me uncomfortable, but a silky restraint is a total turn on. I like things that are sensual. A Red Room of Pain would probably not be my idea of a good time, but, then again, you'll never know until you try something....

So make this your Summer of Kink. Try something new. You don't have to start with whips and chains if you're not ready...start with the yummiest candle you can find and enjoy a soy massage. Spice things up, one step at a time!

Let's Talk about Sex, Baby

Let's talk about you and me.
Let's talk about all the good things
and the bad things that may be.

I think Salt 'n' Pepa had it right. People do misunderstand sex, especially down here in the South. Nice girls are brought up to think it's "dirty"; boys are brought up to "sow their wild oats" and then marry a nice girl. It's a double standard that has caused years of emotional angst and a fortune in therapy bills for many, many people.

During the time we spent behind the counters at our 'adult novelty and lingerie' stores, the one thing I noticed over and over again was that our customers needed a little reassurance that their interest in sex wasn't 'weird'. Whether it was the 50-something housewife who wanted to spice things up, the group of swingers buying gallon bottles of WET, or the 80-year old man who was finally embracing his true sexuality, *everyone* was afraid of being judged at the cash register. Except the college crowd. Kids today...

To paraphrase "Sex in the South: Unbuckling the Bible Belt" author Suzi Parker, your kink may not be my kink but they're both okay. **As long as everyone participating is of legal age, human, breathing, willing, and no one is being hurt**
