Darren Rovell made a good point in his piece “Tiger Ads Continue to Run” stating Tiger Woods’ ads will take on double meaning.
One reads: what are you made of?
The other: The road to high performance isn’t always paved. (ads)
Good ads in themselves. It would be good if they continue running. Their double meaning is a message that [...]

My life is surreal. I’d explain it but being it’s surreal, I can’t. It’s like describing Dali. How does one describe him? Genius or fucked up?
I managed to pull up from my bottomless pit of agony. I think I edged insanity. It’s been a long time since I’ve walked those woods. I apologized and do [...]
The Die Hard S & M Man
Posted in Lies-Stupidity-WTF, Media & Sexuality, Sexual Philosophy, tagged Bruce Willis, Emma Heming, eroticism, love, marriage, photography, S & M, sex, sexuality, W Magazine on June 18, 2009 | 3 Comments »
Maybe Emma slapped Bruce silly with love but critics seem to have their own style of S & M action on the happy actor.
“Are you embarrassed for him?”, asked Jane Velez-Mitchell of Showbiz Tonight about the upcoming W Magazine spread with Bruce Willis and his hot new wife, Emma Heming.
The CNN Showbiz Tonight panel clearly have no [...]

In January :
1. I moved to a new country. I say “new” because, really, I don’t recognize what country I’m actually in. I’m adapting and trying to find its good rather than focus on its bad.
2. I witnessed the dying days of an old woman; saw and touched my first ever dead body.
3. My family [...]
Sex Sermons at the ‘ol Elementary School

“Is Your Sex Life a Bore?” asks a church flyer. Being the faith-based view of sexuality is rather limited, I’d say most people might say yes but that’s not the issue here. The New Hope Church in Brevard County Florida is facing opposition to their sex education (intended for adults) because they’re renting a room [...]
The Sue Happy Wedding
Posted in Ethics/Morality, Jokes, Lies-Stupidity-WTF, Relationships, Sex in General, tagged Kellys Court, marriage, wedding on April 22, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Sometimes the reality of others really makes me grateful because I get to laugh and today I needed one. This piece is about a woman who is suing a wedding guest because her “wedding and life” were ruined after she announced she was sleeping with the groom. It’s astonishing how stupid people really are.

I second that.

The last few days I’ve been dealing with culture shock. It really hit me when I stood at the bread section at Wal-Mart trying to hide my red eyes thinking, why the fuck can’t I find normal bread?! I’ll bypass the fact that I don’t like Wal-Mart but somehow ended up there for a few [...]
Creating a Sex Life When Married With Children
Posted in Diary, Post-Expat Views, Relationships, tagged family/kids, growth, happiness, love, marriage, mom, sex, sexuality on February 3, 2009 | 8 Comments »
How does a mother of 3 have a sex life? Well, creativity goes a long way but when that goes, some good common grandma advice works just as well.
I’m trying to get smart and teach my kids to play together. In my day kids didn’t want to be with their parents and would do anything [...]
Really Great Husbands
Posted in Diary, Inspiration, Relationships, tagged love, marriage on February 1, 2009 | 3 Comments »
When the husband you haven’t seen for a week and deeply miss writes the following, for me it’s just the highlight of my day:
“I am in love with you so much, so dearly, it makes me smile thinking about you.”
I landed the perfect guy. I don’t know how I got so lucky. I must have [...]
The “Good Little Wife”
Posted in Feminism, Motherhood, Relationships, tagged advertising, family/kids, happiness, love, marriage, mom, stereotypes on January 7, 2009 | 4 Comments »
Contexts blog introduced me to a Walmart “stereotype” ad of moms who can do anything. The blogger writes:
…So apparently the wife is the one doing all the spending and, if she is a good little wife, she’s frugal and makes her husband’s hard-earned money go further. This would reproduce the husband as money-earner/wife as money-spender stereotype.
Though she [...]
Rachel Maddow on Rick Warren

This is a tough call. On the one hand, we’ve got Obama living up to the inclusion promise. On the other, couldn’t there have been a less radical choice?!
Rachel Maddow’s take is worth one’s time to view, courtesy of Fourth Wave Feminism blog, which also has a link to sign a petition for those interested.
I’m actually [...]
Why Men Are Scum (apparently)

I never ask or otherwise insinuate I’d like diamonds as a gift from my husband. If it doesn’t come from his own desire and intention, I don’t want it. I’ll admit my husband has bought me a few not so good gifts over the years but in hindsight I get a chuckle even if at [...]
Motherhood’s Sexual Dreaming
Posted in Motherhood, Relationships, tagged love, marriage, sexuality on October 3, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I had an erotic dream the other night. I vaguely recall I was in a big house, kind of empty in furnishings and décor – simple and clean – and down a long hall in an all white room with a dark brown wood bed, I was having quite the erotic moment with a man. [...]

Within the first 30 seconds of this video, we learn that Evangelicals have among the “best sex life” of all people, which seems to include sex everyday, sometimes twice a day – according to those “interviewed”. Are these couples newlyweds cause everyday is like, a lot of humping! That’s 356 times a [...]

Speaking of sex before marriage, it’s just my luck Time Magazine slapped out an article about Purity Balls, where, if you haven’t heard, daughters pledge their virginity to their fathers until their wedding night. OMG. Gag me with a spoon.
The Time article lacks the substance I’d like to see on this. While it includes expected [...]
