Too Tired for Sex

I found this article on the Huffington Post. Here's the link:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/11/09/sex-journal_n_1083724.html?ref=women

You can read it but the woman in New York City writes she and her husband haven't had sex for a month. They have demanding jobs, two kids and are often too tired for sex. But she likes to flirt. My feeling is that they have their priorities out of order.

Anyway, if you read it, will be interested in your thoughts.

The C Word

I found this video on the origin of the word cunt on Aisha's blog. I found it quite interesting.

And what are your thoughts on the word?

Women and Relationships

I found this article on MSN from a Cosmopolitan survey on women and relationships.

It had some interesting tidbits:

--38 per cent of women feel they should share the cost of dates. A total of 33 per cent want the guy to pay.

--73 per cent are comfortable with making more money than their guy and 12 per cent are in a relationship where the woman makes more.

--54 per cent of women have faked an orgasm and 35 per cent have lied about the number of sex partners they have had. And 85 per cent would be offended if a guy faked an orgasm with you. Do guys fake orgasms?

And now here's the tidbit I was most interested in. Thirty-five per cent say "being dominated'' is the sexual act they most often fantasize about.

Interesting. Maybe there are more submissives out there than we thought.

Anyway, here's the link:

Will be interested in hearing your thoughts.

Matching Body and Gender

I've often thought transgender people are dealt a cruel hand by nature. It must be traumatic to be born in the wrong body.

It is good that surgery can now fix the problem. If you google the name of Alexsa Lundberg, you will find pictues of a good looking Swedish actress who was born a male but knew early on, she was supposed to be a female.

The crazy thing is that in Sweden, the law is that transgender people must be sterilized before they have the operation and they can't even freeze sperm legally. I thought Europe was a more progress place than the U.S. in dealing with such issues.

Anyway, here is a link to a story about her:

Sex on Your Wedding Night

I found this interesting article about sex on the wedding night. Here is the link:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/michael-s-broder-phd/a-new-perspective-on-wedd_b_1034101.html?ref=weddings

It talks about how the couple can be totally stressed out or had too much to drink and it isn't the

magical night you would expect.

So how was sex on your wedding night?

I hope you will share your experience.

Taboo

Having sex during your period may not be a taboo subject but it isn't discussed that frequently. I was reminded of that when Kitty did a post on the subject. Here's the link:

Are there other bloggers out there who want to share their thoughts and experiences

on the subject?
