as if your deepest desires
even the wants you’ve been afraid
to speak out loud
were waiting for you at the breakfast table
A Sensexual Beginning Begets An Essensual Ending…

On one fine day in Eden, so the story goes, boredom fell upon the garden and all hell broke loose. And in the end, Adam and Eve knew something they shouldn’t have.
Everyday Orgasm: Coming Out
Tuesday, March 9th, 2010
The minute I started to come out, the orgasm in the room, the orgasm between us, was far beyond any sex we might have had in that moment. It was pure desire, pure sensation, raw emotion, out-of-control, uncensored, unapologetic. As if a great weight had been lifted off it, and it could finally fly.
Touch-Free Orgasm

The strangest thing happened to me yesterday. I’m almost embarrassed to tell you, but once you see what it is, you’ll know why I had to…
Everyday Orgasm: Outside In
Thursday, February 25th, 2010
I am walking this path the way one might walk in the woods on a Spring day after a heavy rain. Looking for rocks or solid spots amidst all the soft, spongey ground along the path. Some moments, my foots sinks into the earth, and I feel stuck. It looks like a bog ahead, and I can’t find the path. At other times, there are rocks, markers, slightly higher ground that hasn’t been completely drenched.
Everyday Orgasm: To Hell and Back
Monday, February 22nd, 2010
As I admit that, I feel so ashamed. My whole body is hot, my cheeks flush, tears are flowing and my stomach heaves and contracts. I can barely raise my eyes to look at him. The intensity of the exposure is so great. Somewhere along the way, it became unsafe to feel so much for someone – and it was downright life threatening to let them know it. Now, I have done the bad thing. Revealed myself completely. Opened. Let him in. In a way I wasn’t able to in all our time “together.” My body prepares for the inevitable death blow – knowing I have nothing left to protect myself.
Sensuality As A Solo Experience
Thursday, February 11th, 2010
There is a lover in all of us. Someone who is hungry for attention, connection, and intimacy. Whether that lover is currently engaged in a traditional monogamous relationship, something more experimental and edgy, or is a solo act, matters very little. Its basic requirements are the same.
What Do You Want?
Tuesday, January 26th, 2010
I remember the first time someone asked, and I felt like they truly wanted to know. It was like they had thrown a glass of ice-cold water in my face.
You mean, there is a step beyond complaining? You mean, I can not only ask for, but actually receive, what I want?
A whole new world opened to me. A world I couldn’t trust, wasn’t prepared for, and suspected might do more harm than good if I succumbed to the temptation to answer. Then, even when I gave myself permission to answer, I discovered I had no words. Whatever age or time in my life I learned that we rarely get what we want, and when we do, it probably comes with a higher price tag than we’d want to pay — the damage had been done.
I no longer had a voice for my desires. In fact, I didn’t even know I had desires. I was aware only of a vague sense of yearning…a restless sort of discontent…and of course, an insatiable craving for things I was sure I couldn’t have.
The Many Faces of Desire
Wednesday, January 13th, 2010
I’ve become convinced that the marketers who name perfumes and clothing lines and jewelry collections Desire don’t know the first thing about desire. To them, she is some one-dimensional sex-kitten-come-siren who inspires flames of passion in her wake. She is lust personified. She is ravenous…bold…and takes what she wants.
Oh, if only it were true!
