This is going to be an unusually personal post for me, and only tangentially has to do with rope and kink, so feel free to skip it and go on to something more sexy. Lee Harrington has this habit of changing people’s lives. Maybe you already knew that, having taken his classes, heard his sermon[…]
Are you excited about Shibaricon? Me, too. But especially if this is your first time coming, and you’re coming from far away, you may be wondering: how can I get my rope to Shibaricon? As someone who travels regularly with rope and other toys, I can tell you my personal secret: Pay the damn fees.[…]
This just in: it works! Gray, Thanks for sharing Voron’s massage technique for the box tie. I was happily suspending a lovely naked woman, last night. She, foolishly, ignored tingling in he left hand until it was “asleep”. I applied the massage and she had feeling back, right away! I took her down and out[…]
Many people have heard of the little piece of heaven in San Francisco that is Wicked Grounds. It’s a bit of a pilgrimage, a kind of kinky Mecca that those who do what we do can go and sit and breathe and feel like we can actually be ourselves, in all our perversity, without worrying[…]
Recently I gave my Worst Class Ever. Seriously, it’s documentably the poorest job I’ve ever done teaching. I appreciate class evaluations from events, even though (as almost any presenter will tell you) that one negative comment will keep me awake at night no matter how effusive the rest of them were. And frankly, usually the[…]
It’s sometimes hard to write a review for a friend. I mean, can you really be objective? It’s easy in a one-on-one “Hey, page 189 has a typo, and I think you would be clearer in this paragraph if you made it a bullet list like you did over in chapter 8…” But in a[…]
It’s funny, when I’m looking over my Google Reader. I’ve got a strange mishmash of feeds…Twisted Monk and Mistress Matisse and Ten and Mollena, of course, but then it veers into Lifehacker and Mnmlist and Hardcore Zen. Then we take another only slight turn to the right into productivity and entrepreneurial blogs like Seth Godin[…]
On January 24th, 2011, a representative of the Toronto Police gave shocking insight into the Force’s view of sexual assault by stating: “women should avoid dressing like sluts in order not to be victimized”. – from the SlutWalk Toronto Facebook Page Hi, my name’s GrayDancer, and I’m a slut. No, I don’t want to sleep[…]
while yes, the focus has been on male heterosexual pleasure, it has been a false focus.
As I took some alone time this morning to read another chapter in Gar Reynolds’ excellent Naked Presenter, he talked about the first question that should be asked before beginning to work on any presentation: Why? It makes sense. Many people have the what and know the how but don’t bother to figure out why[…]
