I know you've noticed I've been gone for a while. There have been a lot of things going on in my personal life including some family emergencies and surgeries. Never fear though, all is well.
There's some fun stuff I'm considering for the future but you're all going to have to wait for it. Just know...wonderful things. I'll at least muse about it in a future post. For today it's going to be fun and light.
I tend to think mindless when I think of tv but Sherlock is one of the wonderful exceptions. It's engaging, sexy, and doesn't dumb down for the audience. All a good lover should be if you ask me. Last month on New Years Day it finally came back after a year and a half long hiatus and oh did it come back. The first episode of series 2 gave us BBC's interpretation of Irene Adler. Let me tell you this, I'm not sure if more of me wants to be Irene Adler or to have her.
In the BBC Sherlock, Irene Adler is a very famous Pro Domme. The initial scandal comes from a series of photographs that Adler has of her dominating a certain female member of royalty. She's intelligent, powerful and incredibly sexy. Sherlock's match if there ever was one. Thankfully this episode doesn't take on a full out Sherlock and Irene romance. Sherlock has no interest in such things and Irene Adler is gay. This is something I loved seeing as a bisexual woman. I love menfolk full and well but there is something extra special about having another woman under your dominion. If I ever went Pro I'd love to cater to mostly women with a number of extra special men whom I'd adore to have serve me. But I do digress.
Irene Adler is The Woman not just professionally but because she is the only woman to get the better of Sherlock. We have her to thank for this delicious little piece:
Right where he should be.
My only complaint is with the writing at the end of the episode. Sherlock beats her. There's just something so wrong about seeing him get the upperhand and figure out her game. I guess it's the same tv formula that the hero always takes down the bad villain. Shame.
I'm going to hold out hope that they bring her back in the 3rd series (or if they have a 4th one I'd settle for that). It'll be interesting seeing who she's become in light of what happened at the end of Scandal. Either way, it was nice seeing a Domme who wasn't portrayed as a complete stereotype.
If you haven't checked out Sherlock yet make sure you do it soon. In fact, make it a nice little assignment from me.

I had to laugh
I know I have a lot of fun things to catch you lovelies up on but most of that will have to wait until your lovely Goddess is home again.
This post is inspired by events that happened about 20 minutes ago between myself an a former friend on good ol' Facebook. Now you all know that I'm no stranger to sex and sexuality so it shouldn't have come as a surprise to anyone that I'd post an article like "Masturbation! Why You Should Be Getting It On With Yourself".
Apparently, this woman was new. Now, the post isn't mean or anything like that, I'm just wondering how someone would be following me and not get that I'm a sexual creature.
Maybe it's my crazy sexually liberated ways but what is it about masturbation that makes everyone think it's so "nasty" and "lude"? It's pleasurable and if she had taken the time to read the article she might have learned that it's even healthy. Now, I understand that many parents don't want their children learning about sex, especially from some random stranger on the internet. I don't know the ages of her kids but at one point or another they're going to learn about masturbation. Hell, most infants and toddlers already have it down. Kids touch everything at that age and dammit, if it feels good they're going to keep doing it. Of course most parents scar their kids into shame by severely scolding them and telling them how dirty and wrong masturbation is when really, it's one of the most fucking natural things there is. (Un)Surprisingly, these are also the kinds of people who find no issue with sitting their children down in front of the most violent video games and tv shows they can find.
Encouragement
The real amusing/disturbing thing though is how she can't even type the word masturbation without having to put it in quotations. Like it's some mythical beast that is contained and therefore not real if only she can keep it in the boundaries of the quotations. We're all adults here. We don't need to be afraid of a little masturbation. In fact, I'd really recommend it for all those in the world who vehemently abhor masturbation.
Call in sick, take a hot shower, get a drink and relax. It's just sex.

Hey, I thought that post was nasty and lude. I removed it because I didn't want my kids knowing what "masterbation" was. Remove me if you wish, but I'd appreciate it if you didn't put up nasty posts

Reading Materials
Hello loves,
I apologize for my absence. Yours truly has been off exploring England. So far it's consisted of lots of chocolate, walking, and sex. It's a terrible existence. I leave for Paris tomorrow. I'm expecting even more chocolate, walking, and sex in addition to gorgeous lingerie and crêpes.
I wanted to pop in an let you all know what I've been reading of late. I started devouring Whores And Other Feminists a few months ago but was unfortunately unable to finish it. A quick trip to the local library remedied it for me. Although a tad dated, Whores is still an excellent collection of articles and interviewers from sex workers and female pioneers in the sex industry on what it is to be a sex worker and feminist. Published back in 1997, women have come a long way but the relevance of so many of the articles proves that we still have so far to go. This book is incredibly empowering and I recommend it to anyone, female or male, sex worker or not.
Take care darlings. And drink your tea. It's good for you. x

Role Model
My Role Model The Pornstar
An article I wrote recently about why porn actress Stoya is one of my role models. Give it some love!
Bonus: I completely neglected to mention in the article that she's friends with Molly Crabapple which is probably 10 reasons to love her in itself.
Stoya is the kind of woman I hope to be. Confident, intelligent, crafty, and artsy. The fact that she’s in an adult industry just makes her seem all the more gutsy and in control.
