Hate to say I told you so…

Saturday, June 30th, 2007

I’m enjoying disabusing people of the idea that I’m a nice guy. It’s funny how even when you tell people that you’re a sadistic bastard, they don’t seem to believe you. Until after, of course. Favorite quotes of the evening:

"Hurry up and sign the waiver, M!""Eh, shut up!" room grows suddenly quiet. "Oh, shit. I […]

Got my gallery fixed, and so I can sort of share with you these pictures, of the lovely Betty Wantsme (one of Foxy Veronica’s Peach Pies). Here’s what she has to say about rope:
Up until a few months ago, the extent of me being tied up was with something (a belt, a tie, a scarf, […]

The Energy of Two

Wednesday, June 27th, 2007

Interesting thing happened last night. I’ve watched musicals since I was knee high to a coffee table, and last night my daughter and I decided to pull out the old favorite “An American in Paris.”
Now, the “dancer” in my name is not there for decoration; I’ve been a serious dancer and the number two role […]

It’s Official. Rope is no longer kinky.

The video "Wrong Love" by SMatka (and by award-winning director Gero Von Braunmühl) is

"Latex, chainsaws, midgets and an s&m menagerie of characters — including a penguin, Nosferatu and some geishas"

Yeah, if you watch it, you’ll see a veritable cornucopia of fetishes, including dancing cavorting purple-latex clad priests and naked Bast lookalikes.
But no rope. […]

This picture, taken by my friend Ralinad at the recent trip to the Japanese Gardens, has been corrupted by my rightfully-maligned sense of humor. However, it makes me wonder what other kinds of “LOLNAWASHI” pics we can come up with.

On the subject of “Don’t Try This at Home”

Thursday, June 7th, 2007

While I’m always quick to recommend sites such as Hogtied as a way to get into the nitty-gritty of how ties are done (you eventually reach a strange state when all you see is the rope, and when someone points out that there’s a gorgeous woman involved it’s actually quite a shock), I have to […]

Why Ask Why? Because It’s About MORE Than Just the Sex…

Tuesday, June 5th, 2007

I don’t know why I’ve not really mentioned it, but I’m going to be travelling up to the cities this next weekend as part of the "Sexy Spring" celebration. I’m really honored to have been asked to be a presenter there, though not in my usual motif - nary a rope in sight. No, I’m […]

BDSM Leads to Happier Men

Monday, June 4th, 2007

…and women, but according to this study:
“… men into BDSM scored significantly better on a scale of psychological wellbeing than other men.
?This seems to imply that these men are actually happier as a result of their behaviour, though we’re not sure why,? she said.
?It might just be that they’re more in harmony with themselves because […]
