New favorite site




If you've been close to me for any significant length of time, you're likely to have been subjected to my oft impassioned discourse on hard core porn. I am not aroused by nor interested in hard core porn. Vaginas and penises are not very aesthetically pleasing. I do not need or want to see all of your business. What I do find arousing is soft core sexual suggestion. Watch Sylvia Kristel's Emmanuelle movies or nearly everything that Laura Gemser was a part of in the 70's and 80's. Annie Belle did a film in 1976 called, amongst other names, Laure. That was hot. The sex scenes in Unfaithful were hot. The Red Shoe Diaries series is another modern example of what I'm talking about.
This "suggestive" rather than graphic sexuality and passion is far more titillating to me. I enjoy the beauty of sexual encounters and erotica far more than the animal mechanics of sex. Trust me, I know what sex organs and fucking looks like from every possible angle and I don't need it portrayed in film or any other medium.
And this brings me to my new favorite site...Sexyjack. This site embodies everything I believe erotic and sensual photography should be. Beautiful stuff collected in one place. Whoever is responsible for this site gets my demonstrative approval.

I'm inspired!!!

I just happened upon this video circuitously. I've been casually acquainted with Michael Sandel's work for a little over a decade, but this class, conducted in the Socratic style has inspired me to get off my ass and realize my dream of starting a weekly salon (discussion group) in Midway. It's my opinion that engaging in dialogs about fundamental ideas is critical to living a rich and fulfilling life. These discussions may not bear the fruit of resolution, but stimulating one's capacity for critical thought is as important as breathing if you wish to lead a full life.

A good idea

Finally, a good idea and some press regarding the REAL underlying issue. Check out this snippet. The bit about two children replacing the two adults is fallacious and dangerous, however. Check out this link for one argument for why that is.
