Role-playing, Femme Fatale, Boy Toys, and other odd exciting adventures

It’s been a month since I took my notes for this blog and I finally decided to just do it and see where it goes. Guess I’ll get the less exciting adventure out of the way since there is nothing in-depth to write. You know that nasty flu everyone was talking about? Yep, I got it, in spades! Two weeks dying at home, a week and a half in the hospital and another three weeks trying to recover and not go stir crazy. It was ugly and I’ve never been away from work for so long but it made me see I must maintain regular hours, eat, and rest. I am back and I feel really great now. So ummmm you know… Phone me will ya! LOL

Now to the juicy sex stuff I researched and thought was interesting. Kind of an interesting mix of topics but each one relates to one’s need to express their self and “let go”, whether it be within a group, in front of a group or alone. The first one was so different yet on some level it appealed to me. I don’t want to participate but I thought the costumes were great and the group I watched on TV really “let go” and had fun. The role-playing was ‘Pony Play’. It must be stressed this is NOT bestiality; it is humans playing their role of ‘pet’ or ‘owner’. It really demonstrated the ‘top’ and ‘bottom’ roles quite vividly in domination and submission. The second topic I found was a female performance group called ‘Femme Fatale’ and Club Juana. Their expression was to challenge the nudity laws in Florida, USA. From what I understand the laws weren’t too strict in the past but now it seems they are, in a real bad way. And the last subject of my blog was really for the ladies but I figured the thought of women masturbating would be enough for the guys. The subject is ‘A Real Doll’** but it’s a man’s body for the ladies. With several female dolls, can I say it’s about time! Lastly I wanted to do a feature on burlesque but with a twist. Instead of your typical blonde dancers you get to see lovely black burlesque dancers. Fantastic, eh!! Each one of these things appealed to me and I hope you enjoy my little following write up.

Equestrian erotica apparently has quite the large following and judging by some of the outfits not a cheap fetish to get into. Some of the members of this particular group had real leather saddles designed for human ponies to wear, along with wigs, horseshoes, mouth bits, tails, and custom crops. Just for an added twist some of the saddles had a dildo right on the seat! Not only does the fetish give ‘riding’ a new perspective, it also adds to the extra pleasure. The style of riding and costumes vary. Some ‘Riders’ are on saddles and the ‘Pony’ has horseshoes on all hands and feet, while others prefer to ride on the shoulders either bareback or with a special saddle design. The general appeal on an erotic note is the rhythm of the ride and close contact. It is quite obvious that this type of fantasy play derives itself from the domination/submission roots, but this S&M role-playing really shows how the ‘Rider’ (Master/Mistress) and ‘Pony’ (submissive) have their roles. It’s not just a matter of discipline and flogging, the ‘Rider’ must care for It’s pet, so care is just as important. Either roles may be played by a male or female, husband and wife, or singles can mingle within the fetish group to find their respective counter parts. Once the riding or training session is over the ‘ponies’ are rewarded with a rinse and rub down. The rub down can included an orgasm as reward for good behavior. These roles can be limited to ‘play time’ but others are always in their roles. I must admit I was a little weirded but the whole fetish but I could see the draw to it. Although I don’t plan on joining in anytime soon the control aspect did appeal to me.

My second topic is a little more serious but was handled in a creative way by the people involved. And also, just so you know this did happen in the past and as far as I know the club has since closed first due to fear of nudity and lastly because the city needed a bridge right where they happen to be. You draw your own conclusions. It all started with this great club called ‘Club Juana’ in Orlando, Florida. It was a large well known club and in 1968 – 69 it decided to go topless. The owners, Mike and Mary Printer had a vision for their club to be a classy adult entertainment club. It had nude cabaret shows and famous burlesque dancers such as the well known Temptress Gorman. They were well liked by their employees and treated people with respect. For 44 years and millions of customers later they were a place to go where you could enjoy big floor production shows for adults. Starting around 2000 the city decided to pass an ordinance that nudity was not to be allowed. Yes, the clubs could stay open but the dancers had to wear full bottom panties to cover the cleavage of their asses and wear pasties on their nipples. Pasties are little round bits of paper to cover not only the nipples but the entire areola. If the ordinance was not followed the club and dancers could be arrested immediately. The dancers felt the city was trying to make them look ugly so even though they said the clubs could stay open customers would not return due to the ‘cover ups’. I think they were right in their guess. Also, customers not aware of the law did ask why the dancers were covered up. There was however a loop hole and so a small troupe of performers called ‘Femme Fatale’ and Club Juana decided to test that loop hole. The loop hole was that nudity was allowed so long as the show was a bona fide theatrical performance. And of course if you are going to go theatre you might as well do it right, so the choose the scene of the witches in Shakespeare’s Macbeth. They did learn it correctly and even hired a director/playwright by the name of Morris Sullivan. He gave them direction and made sure they said the lines correctly. So even though they were trying to push the limits they did go the lengths to be right. From that first performance sprang other skits to satirize the ridiculous laws and how they would be enforced. Sadly despite their efforts the final straw did come in the form of a bridge. Yes the city decided that a bridge just so happen to need to go right through the property of the Club. They did try to sue the city for losses with the help of attorney Steve Mason but ultimately they got a small compensation and the club is history. My guess is that in Florida the city feels adults can’t decide for themselves. In Canada, after a certain hour you can see tits and ass all you like with a side of cursing. No I don’t want to see it all the time but I enjoy the fact that it’s my choice.

Speaking of choices, there is a new toy on the market and ladies, he is tall, hung as long as you need and is there when the real thing is not. Yes, the makers of ‘Real Doll’ have made a male version. He’s certainly not cheap at $6999.00 USD worth of silicone, extras and 80+ hours to make, but he is easy! Included with your price you get to decide what state of arousal he is in as he comes (pardon the pun) with various attachments. It was after thousands of requests that the company received they decided it was time for the male ‘Real Doll’. Before him the company already had 6 females for customers to choose from so it was a natural progression to expand. As it turns out the original use of the dolls was not for sex. They were just trying to produce a more realistic mannequin for stores or possible medical purposes. Leave it to us to make it sexual, but hey the business is doing well and there is quite the community that indulges in this as not only a sex toy but as a fetish. After some testing by ladies of the male doll the highlights were they enjoyed his soft skin and that they were able to use his whole body for pleasure (ie: fingers, feet, tongue, and hands). The suggestions for future perks was a penetrative ass for strap on play, and some type of ejaculate you could control by playing with his balls. If I had the money it might be fun to buy but he is heavy so my thought is they should include his own chair to move him around, but he does offer the fantasy of sex with your ideal of the ‘perfect body’ as you get to build him. Bring masturbation to a whole new level doesn’t it?

Lastly I thought I’d touch on a topic that does tie in to phone sex in a way, burlesque. There is a particular Club and group that I will talk about but I’ve always thought the art of the seduction these days is missing. Burlesque is about the show and the tease, and my customers know I love to build the scene and sexual tension. The owner, Delores Dickson, of Club 55 in Wash, DC also thought like me that burlesque is about the story of seduction and teasing. She wanted to give it a further twist and have women of colour be the feature dancers and break the mold of the blonde haired, blue eyed dancers. With the help of experienced burlesque dancer Tony Alicendrinne (forgive me I don’t have the correct spelling, but it is close phonetically) she taught the girls in her club how to seduce rather than just strip. One of the girls of her club (China – Miss Black Nude 2000) had always wanted to perform in this way and appreciated the opportunity. When I saw this story I loved the fact that is was black women doing the dancing because they have such lovely bodies and skin, and the other thing that struck me was that I wasn’t the only one who thought there is a place for sexual seduction. I’m not black but I’d still like to tease you…

I know it was so long since blogged but with everything to catch up on I just simply didn’t get time to put it together. Hopefully it’s been fun and informative for you to read. It was fun to write and I hope it not too long before me next entry. Of course the French Open in Paris is on so I’ll be booked on but no writing for the next 2 weeks. I’m a huge Roger Federer fan so I hope he wins this year. And my sexy hunk David Nalbandian is playing too but he’s just my eye candy!

**seems the male sex doll is getting revamped, so stay tuned.
