Top Ten Male Sexual Fantasies

(Pulled from the net)
Don’t expect to be remotely surprised by the following, but equally, says sex therapist Sandra Alexander, you shouldn’t feel threatened. “In the main, such fantasies are harmless recreation. If your man were to genuinely find himself on a South Pacific island surrounded by a dozen nymphettes desperate for his body, he’d be on the first boat home. Really?

Double helpings: A classic position - sandwiched between two women intent on his pleasure.

On location: Sex anywhere but the bedroom. Swimming pools figure highly, as do supermarkets.

Coitus interruptus: Getting down to it on his desk after office hours, knowing that the cleaner could walk in any moment.

Turkish delight: He’s the only fella in a happy harem.

Fancy dress: You guessed it - French maids’ outfits/nurses uniforms. The short skirt and suspenders combo is deeply embedded in the male psyche.

Peeping Tom: The old favourite of watching two women make love.

Forbidden fruit: Á la Alan Clark, sex with two daughters of his mistress. Variations on the theme include bonking his bosses wife while on the phone to him.

Mrs Robinson: A mature sexual tutor teaching him a thing or two.

Brief encounters: Being ravished by a total stranger. Planes and trains feature highly in this fantasy.

Over to her: It’s often the more successful man who dreams of passivity - relinquishing all sexual power to a female warrior/becoming a sex slave/being dished up as dessert, naked on a silver platter.

5 Blue Ribbons

SW_SecretThoughts_E72Secret Thoughts: Erotique is packed with story after story written by these six authors, each with a unique feel and wonderfully layered approach to the art of writing erotica. I believe there is a distinct difference between that which is pornographic and that which is erotic, and these six writers accomplish that beautifully. This is a must have piece of work for anyone who is a serious reader and collector of erotica.” ~ www.lazygeisha.com

When the first Secret Thoughts Collection was released, not many places were intersted in reviewing it. Mrs.Giggles did, and so did Lazy Giesha, (to read the Lazy Geisha review click here, it is a PDF file) but that was about it. This morning, a review from Romance Junkies for the second Secret Thoughts collection arrived in my inbox…and can I just say YAY!!!

cover_with_date_by_darkfedoraThe Secret Thoughts collections are special to me. They were birthed from my free online magazine of the same name. ST used to be a monthly magazine with covers, book features and reviews as wellas free reads and editorial columns. I had a blast with it, but it became a bit too much for me to handle with my writing and working as well, so I ended it. And when I ended it I approached Samhain owner Crissy Brashear witht the idea of doing the straight erotica collections as eBook anthologies.

Crissy is a smart women, and not afraid to try new things, so she let me go to it. I called up some of the authors I know who enjoy writing erotica, and short, and we were off.

And I’m thrilled to announce that not only have the eBook collections been received very well, but Erotique and Lustful will be combined into one, and release in print format! The Release date for Secret Thoughts print novel is set for October 28, 2008.

Now, check out what Amanda from Romance Junkies has to say about the short stories in Lustful .

Secret Thoughts II: Lustful
By: Sasha White, Laura Bacchi, S. Desires, J.J. Massa and Beth Williamson
5 Blue Ribbons

STLustful300SNIPPET: Join a group of the world’s best erotica authors as they bring everyone’s fantasies to life in this titillating collection. Reader’s will never be the same after reading this anthology and will be looking to find some sexual relief!

The Cable Guy by Beth Williamson
THE CABLE GUY was so much fun! I loved the age difference aspect to it. It made me realize that sometimes an older woman can still snag that young, sexy guy.

Man Ho by Laura Bacchi
MAN HO is exquisite. This is my first story by Laura Bacchi but it definitely isn’t going to be my last!

Connection by Sasha White
CONNECTION, by Sasha White, is titillating, exotic and so damn erotic it made my teeth sweat!

Shadows Blending by S. Desires
I loved the feel of two strangers meeting for the first time just to experience anonymous pleasure. This was a very original road to take for an erotica story and my mouth was watering from beginning to end.

The Bridge by J.J. Massa
Sex in public has never been so exotic. THE BRIDGE by J.J. Massa truly made me tingle in all the right places. I’m a big fan of J.J. Massa’s and I think this is probably my favorite story ever!

Teasing the Senses by S. Desires
TEASING THE SENSES is exquisite. This is truly a story of undeniable passion between two lovers. The senses are awakened and sex takes on a whole new meaning for both the characters and the reader. I really love the anonymity of S. Desires characters. I am not any less drawn into the story because of it. In fact, I find myself more absorbed by the actual storyline. This was a very passionate story and I think it will definitely tease the reader’s senses!

Double Trouble by Laura Bacchi
DOUBLE TROUBLE by Laura Bacchi was smokin’ hot! I was unable to tear my eyes away from the pages for even a heartbeat. I honestly think this was the most sinfully delicious story I have ever read. I never knew sex with twins could be so arousing. There is an air of danger throughout this story too. Mindy is on the run from something and the twins have something up their sleeve. All that can wait though, until the sex is done!

After Class by J.J. Massa
AFTER CLASS is exquisite! We’ve all fantasized about a hot teacher at one time or another. J.J. Massa takes it one step further and makes it a reality. Only this time, it’s not your regular male on female fantasy— it’s male on male. This was such a wonderful treat! I loved the titillating details during this story. I actually felt like I was a fly on the wall in the office. If you love male on male action, definitely read AFTER CLASS. It is erotica at its best!

The Wedding Gift by Beth Williamson
THE WEDDING GIFT by Beth Williamson was great fun! I really enjoyed the fact that Veronica just got to stand there while some strange man went down on her. I think this is every woman’s fantasy…to just have a man do all the work while we just enjoy it. I know it never really happens, but heck, that’s why it’s a fantasy right?

Private Pleasure by Sasha White
This was a very passionate story. Although no names are mentioned, I felt completely connected to both characters. The master, a man who knows just what his sub needs, really made me realize the pleasure in this kind of sex play. The sub, a woman whose passion craves her master’s touch, will give up her heart to him just to get what she needs. Although nothing is actually said straight out about a happily ever after, I truly could feel the connection between these two. This is definitely a couple who belongs together! PRIVATE PLEASURE is a look into a BD/SM couple and all their glory together.

Everything about SECRET THOUGHTS II: LUSTFUL is exquisite. Combined with realistic fantasies and the writings of today’s hottest erotica authors, this was a collection I could not put down! I was immersed from the very first story and there wasn’t a single drawback to any of them. The characters and situations were completely believable, the sex was fantastic and each story left me feeling like everyone was happy! How much better can a collection of erotic stories get? This is, without a doubt, a collection of stories I’m going to re-read over and over again!

A Southern Belle ?

Amazing lady and talented author Dianne Castell is having a 2 day long blog party over at Laurie’s Laudanum starting TODAY!!

The party is to celebrate her new release from Brava. HOT AND BOTHERED.that is set in The South. The real South. ANdher first post is abotu being a true Southern Belle. I have to say… I am not a southern belle. (Was there really ever any doubt?) I’m Canadian for one thing, but I thought you never know… I might have some characteristics of a Southern Belle. But no, not really. Sure I enjoyed Steele Magnolias and loved Fried Green Tomatos, but well, I tried grits for the first time when I was in Atlanta a couple years ago. Not my thing. And I’ve never read or seen Gone With The Wind (but my cat’s named Scarlet!).

And let’s not forget I cuss worse than a trucker.

Anyway, I can’t help it. After reading Dianne’s post about Southern Belle’s I thought of Suzanne McMinn and her Chicken in the Road blog. Suzanne makes me want to live in the south.

So, for fun, check out the blog party and the TON of prizes they’re giving away…and also, read Suzanne’s Farm Journal from time to time. It’ll make you smile. :)

Jillian Rocks.

Anyone watching The Biggest Loser?

I’ve always said I want Bob for my boyfriend, and Jillian for my trainer. And I stick by that, (despite the bit of man attitude Bob showed a couple weeks ago.)

Last night Jillian had a bit of a say and I had to laugh. That chick kicks ass!

As for the Black team’s attitude, I think they need to get over, stop feeling sorry for themselves and do the work. Who ever said losing wieght was easy? And Yes, men do lose it easier than women, but come on, stress and attitude can effect your efforts almost as much as your eating and work out habits. Look at Ali, she worked, she concentrated on herself and why she was there, and she lost a higher percent of them all…even all the guys. And she’s smaller than the other women, which means it’s even harder to lose… A female can win this, if they’d get past their emotions. (That said I almost wonder if it’s PMS week for the girls. You know it is true that women, when living/working together, their cycles can adjust to happen at the same time, and thats got to suck.)

Jillian nailed it when she said they were falling right back into the trap of emotional mindless eating that got them there, and they need to THINK!

I can only imagine after being there for 11 weeks how small their world has become. I mean, look at how small things can get blown out of proportion just in our little online communities. Or at work…I don’t know about all of you, but I know where I work, small crap things always get blown up into big deals.

And uhmm, now I need to kick my own ass to stay on track. LOL
And someone needs to tell me who went home, becasue I missed everything after the weight in, the silly chanel I was watching it on went blank and I missed everything after the weigh in!

AND Go see Beth and congratulate her on her win!

Dance Night

It’s Sunday night, and Randy Jackson presents Americas Best Dance Crew is on.

Jabba Wook-eez rocked it for sure. I can see the top two being them and Kabba Modern. Like I mentioned HERE, Canadians can’t vote. So if you feel the urge…free to voteVote on my behalf For either KabbaModern or Status Quo. Those are my two favorites, and though Status Quo didn’t completely rock it tonight, I love them and they need to stick around a bit more. They’re a true street crew, just watch them!

And since the movie Step Up 2 is in theaters, and this song won’t get out of my freakin’ brain…check it out.

PS: I saw the movie, it was what you’d expect, but I love dance/fight/sports type movies, so I enjoyed it. However, it wasn’t as good as one of my favoritesTAKE THE LEAD . Follow the link and watch the video clip.

ADDED: You can blame Tammi that afetr her mentioning the soundtrack for the movie I had to add this video. I’ve love this song since I heard it and was pleasantly pleased to find it was in the movie STEP UP 2 as well.

In the cave.

I Feng Shui’d my office, then got down to work. When I am constantly writing and ignoring things like email, my blog, and my life…I call it the going into the cave. My cave looks very nice and clean now, it feels all warm, cozy and almost professional. But I wanted to show you I am never alone.

Yummy!


Rachael Ray is a fount of food knowledge. Besides her books and monthly magazine, her website is full of recipes - all sorts of recipes. Most of them are health conscious, all of them are worth checking out.

Now, I’m not a cole slaw fan. I’m also not a blue cheese dressing fan. But this recipe is absofuckinglutely fantastic. Try it!

Apple and Celery Slaw with Blue Cheese Dressing

4 ounces blue cheese
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/2 teaspoon sugar
4 granny smith apples
2 stalks celery, thinly sliced

1. In a small bowl, using a fork, combine the blue cheese, mayonnaise and 1/4 cup buttermilk until thick and lumpy. Stir in the remaining 1/4 cup buttermilk and the sugar. Refrigerate.
2. Quarter, core and coarsely grate the apples. In a medium bowl, combine the apples with the dressing. Stir in the celery; cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

PS: I use Miracle Whip lite instead of Mayonnaise, but thats my preferance. and I didn’t have any buttermilk…makes me wonder how it would truly taste. Probably really thick and super rich..but I loved my version. :)

She’s staying.

I couldn’t do it. I’m keeping Scarlet.

My Mom made me realize the main reason I was worried so much about them was that I’m going to NY for five days at the end of this month, then to Pittsburgh for 5 days next month and I’m worried about what will happen while I’m gone.

I hope to God the two of them don’t kill each other while I’m away. My friend in the building said she’d check on them every day, but I’m still worried. 5 days of the two home alone… I’m thinking there might be a lot of

Then agian, I’m praying they’ll be best friends when I get home.
