Your
Sex Drive The
Low Libido Blues

Your
sex drive may be high, low or some where in-between, but
what it most likely isn't is consistent. Most people ride
the roller coaster 'o love when it comes to their libido.
One day you may feel like a plant and think that a good
book would float your boat, while the next morning when
you wake, you may find yourself so wound up that you lustfully
eye your pillow ready to jump on and hump that baby 'til
the feathers are a flyin'.
When
I say libido/sex drive, I am not referring to sexual arousal
as those are two different aspects of sexuality.
Sex
Drive refers to your interest in sex. Sexual Arousal
refers to your body's ability to physically respond
to sexual stimuli. The most notable physical responses of
aexual arousal in men is an erection and for women it is
lubrication of her vagina. For
the purposes of this article we will be discussing Sex
Drive, also known as Libido.
A marked
decline in sex drive is usually the body's way of letting
you know that you have an imbalance going on. What can cause
this? Here are some of the most common reasons that your
lovely libido may find itself stuck in a rut.
Depression
and/or Anxiety From Life
When
examining depression or anxiety in mental health, one must
understand that they are highly interconnected. Depression
is typically caused by anxiety from life stressors. When
we experience stress, sex is usually the last thing on our
minds. From work, finances to relationships, there is a
lot in life that can cause stress and ultimately lead to
symptoms of depression. When we are anxious or depressed
it is common for your libido to go limp.
Women
in particular carry over stress into the bedroom because
it is not just about wanting sex for them, it is also often
about wanting to feel sexy. It is hard to
feel like a "hot mama" when you have a "To
Do" list going on in your head from reviewing the kids
soccer practice to paying bills. Men also have this type
of stress, but due to social conditioning, it is more prevalent
in women when it carries over to libido.
This
issue of feeling sexy can also pertain to simply having
a poor body image which can lead to self abusive thinking
and a slippery slope to low sex drive as well. Using positive
self imagery, positive reinforcements to oneself may seem
silly, but are very powerful. They don't say "mind
over matter" for nothing. If this is a major issue
for you or your partner, a therapist, an exercise class,
a support group, a friend to provide support are just a
few wonderful ways to assist in exploring a self affirming
perspective.
What
To Do About Life Stress?
One
of the best things I can ever recommend is to take care
of yourself, and I don't just mean just the surface stuff
of wearing sexy perfume or a new hair style. One of the
reasons I focus so much on "holistic health" is
because it is important to understand that everything is
interconnected. If you are not getting enough sleep, eating
healthy, and doing the things that will replenish yourself,
then just like a car that has not had it's oil changed,
your sexual engine will kaput!
Take
care of your mind, body and spirit with things you know
will rejuvenate you because the quality of your sex life
will be influenced by it. If you need direction a trainer,
counselor or life coach may be a great place to get the
resources and support you need.
Stress
About Sex
Fear
and anxiety associated with sex itself can also be a problem.
Fears of getting pregnant, STDs, sexual performance and
even sexual inhibitions from previous abuse can all be factors
that create stress about sex itself.
What
To Do?
Dealing
with these issues directly is a good way to eliminate them.
If you are concerned about pregnancy- address birth control
issues, STDs- practice safe sex, and so on. Be educated
about your sexuality so that you will know how to best approach
the inhibitions that may hold you back. If it is a complex
issue such as sexual abuse, infidelity, etc. then seeking
self-help resources or a counselor may be a good way to
get the help you need in turning things around.
Medical
Issues
If you
are dealing with a potential medical issue it is always
a good idea to consult your physician. The most common medical
issues to lower libido are-
1) Hormonal
changes from pregnancy, menopause and birth control pills.
2) Illicit
drug and/or alcohol use and/or abuse.
3) Over-the-counter
or prescription drug side effects.
(i.e.: antidepressants, mood stabilizers,
tranquilizers, high blood pressure pills, etc.)
4) Thyroid
and metabolic disorders.
5) Aging
issues: menopause and decreased testosterone production.
6) Handicaps
that inhibit one from feeling sexual responses.
What
To Do?
It is
the obvious choice to see and speak frankly with your physician.
However, if you feel like you physician is not being sensitive
to your concerns, you may want to switch physicians or seek
a professional such as a therapist, psychiatrist, or even
an alternative professional such as an acupuncturist.
Relationship
Blues
If you
have long-term, unresolved conflict and/or unexpressed anger
your sex drive can plummet and stay there until the issues
are resolved. Emotionally impacting relationships or events
in our lives are more powerful than most people realize.
If your sex drive is suffering and you have no idea why,
this may be a good area of your life to look. Ask yourself
if you feel sexually empowered and satisfied by your partner,
are there other aspects of your relationship that are experiencing
conflict?
What
To Do?
If so,
begin with communicating with your partner to try and resolve
these issues together. If you are in a relationship where
communication itself is a challenge, then seeking a therapist
can be a great move for both of you.
Summary
If you
are concerned about your sex drive, try and keep it in perspective
and know that low, medium or high... everyone has a unique
sex drive specific to their chemical, mental, emotional
and situational life experience.
If you
are happy about your sex drive no matter how high or low
it is, then that is certainly not a problem. If it is a
problem in a relationship, then you may want to explore
compromise and certainly communicate about ways that can
occur.
If you
are looking to improve your sex drive then a great tip often
overlooked is simply... masturbate by hand or through a
sex toy. Learning about your own body through masturbation
is a highly effective way to become more mindful about your
inhibitions, sexual preferences, fantasies, and a great
way to feel relaxed.
If you
are in a relationship, try mutual masturbation sessions
and certainly, don't forget the sex
toys as a fun a creative way to spice things up!

Actress,
playwright, and political activist Eve Ensler was talking
with a friend who was going through menopause in the 1990s
when she was first struck by the way women spoke about
their bodies. She believed it was a reflection of how
they felt about themselves and their gender.
In
turn, Eve was inspired to write a series of essays on
women, their bodies, and the language they used to communicate
about themselves which she adapted into a performance
piece she called The Vagina Monologues.
Opening
at a tiny off-off-Broadway theater, The Vagina Monologues
soon became a hit in New York City which spread around
the world, becoming an international phenomenon. Eve Ensler
re-creates her original performance of The Vagina Monologues
in this video adaptation, which was produced for the premium
cable network HBO. Moving, and fun!

& Sex Advice

I wanted to provide a section where we take some of our readers
questions and post them on our web site so that we can provide
answers that everyone can benefit from having the information
available on our web site.
To submit your question such
as those shown below eMail us for
consideration of publishing it in our next newsletter.
Lisa,
Your
Web site is really interesting!!! I thought I've seen
everything... as a man I'm still in a state of shock!...
Questions... Have women kept this a secret.... Can women
suppress ejaculation without affecting their orgasms...
I've had sex with many women that have had powerful orgasms
and they never mentioned the need to ejaculate fluid.
Why has it taken so long for this to be exposed...
Thanks,
Scott
Hi
Scott,
Thank
you for your inquiry. Yes, women can still orgasm without
ejaculating and it can still be powerful. Ejaculation
adds to the feeling of release which makes it unique and
an added bonus to an orgasm.
Women
have been AFRAID to discuss ejaculation for several reasons.
The two most common are-
1)
Many still confuse it with stress incontinence and do
not realize that it is not
urine. I review this in more detail
in our female
ejaculation section.
2)
Women are often either unsure of what it is or think that
they just peed, they
tend not to want to talk about this
experience with anyone out of shame
of embarrassment.
You
mention that your female partners have not mentioned a
need to urinate... this is because the cues that the woman
feels can often be confused with feeling like the need
to urinate because the Skenes glands fill up and put pressure
on the urethra similar to the feeling of the bladder filling
and putting pressure on the urethra. Most women will tell
you that they do often feel a need to urinate when the
are highly aroused and is one of the most common "cues"
a woman tends to ignore when it comes to ejaculating.
Also,
you asked me in another eMail you sent if pregnancy has
anything to do with female ejaculation and the answer
to that is no. Pregnancy has nothing to do with female
ejaculation. However, pregnancy can cause stress incontinence
and thus is why women often think the two are related.
Female
ejaculation has been known about for a long time... to
the days of Socrates and I am sure well before. It has
been the repression of women's sexuality and the embarrassment
and shame that has been associated with openly discussing
it that has kept it so elusive. A few sexual health pioneers
risked social rejection and in some cases professional
rejection just for publicly acknowledging it. I still
get OBGYNs that are embarrassed to talk about it with
me and do not want to associate with it out of fear of
being ostracized for educating women about a topic that
is highly associated with porn. Isn't that crazy in this
day and age?
Yet,
many of the OBGYNs and other professionals that do embrace
the teaching of female ejaculation, have a hard time with
talking too publicly about it as there is still a stigma
to the subject. Many doctors fear that their educational
discussions on sexual issues may be misconstrued as sexually
inappropriate behavior. For example, you have a woman
who is asking about how to achieve an orgasm because she
has not been able to have one. The OBGYN suggests some
techniques and mentions that she may explore using a vibrator
to help her accomplish this goal. The woman has been taught
by her conservative family that sex toys are sinful and
then in turn is outraged that her OBGYN has even suggested
such a thing. She accuses the doctor of sexual misconduct
because she then makes it out to be that the doctor was
suggesting things that are inappropriate in her mind.
Yes, I know it is a terribly ridiculous thing, but don't
think that kind of thing does not happen because it has
and does. Sad, but true.
I
will never forget my first interview with an OBGYN for
my book The
Art of Female Ejaculation. She said
that she had not much education on sexual techniques,
female ejaculation or other such things outside of sexual
reproduction in the curriculum for her degree. Pathetic
that we are in the year 2005 and still have that kind
of ignorance going on. She was so embarrassed about professional,
sexual discussion that she was blushing and kept trying
to refer me to a sex educator in the area. Did she know
of one... no, but said that I probably would do better
to find someone like that to talk to about
sexual issues for women. It was in that interview that
I realized that I had to educate women and
their partners on sexuality because who else would? It
seems that in the last decade there are many more of us
out there that have evolved from people like Dr. Ruth,
but we are still pretty scarce.
Since
then, I have found fellow sex educators like myself that
provide sexual information at great risk personally and
professionally. I can assure you that if some of the Psychiatrists,
Social Workers and Therapists that I used to work with
in Psychiatric hospitals, Group Homes for the Sexually
Abused and even Rape Crisis knew what I was doing now,
they world be appalled. I remember being scolded in my
early days as a Therapist by my supervisor when I worked
at the Group Home For Sexually Abused Girls when one of
my 16 year old patients asked me if masturbation was normal
and I told her it was normal. I told her that it was nothing
to be ashamed about and a healthy way to explore her own
body sexually so that she could learn more about herself
on a sexual level.
Just
for that comment, I was confronted in a staff meeting
with hostile reactions from the rest of the staff and
told that kind of thing was not to be discussed
with patients. I asked why we would not teach sexually
abused girls about healthy sexuality... of all the places
in the world, it seemed that was where it was need most!
I ended up quitting my job there after 6 months of ridicule
that I endured for that incident. I left with a clear
understanding that people are still highly conflicted,
confused and ashamed of their sexuality. I mean just look
at our Sex
In The News Section, or the Joanne
Webb story where narcotics officers arrested her for selling
sex toys and educating people about them. If you think
a vibrator is taboo, you can imagine what female ejaculation
is considered! That is right, obscene! Why a woman's sexuality
is so threatening is still such an odd concept to me.
I mean, I understand the insane reasoning people give
for that kind of thinking, but I still think it is insane.
With
conservatives in power right now, it is a scary world
for a sex educator like me. Most of what I teach and sell
is considered obscene by the conservative right and it
may mean that one day I lose my company, go bankrupt or
even go to jail for what I do. This is not to mention
that some friends and family won't speak to me or my husband
because while most of them are fine with sexuality in
general and even sometimes watch adult entertainment,
they don't want to have someone they associate
with actually involved in it. Oddly, the friends who won't
associate with me blame my husband for me doing what I
do for a living, and his family members who won't speak
to him, blame me. It really is quite childish. The majority
of family members that do still talk to my husband and
me never ask how our company is doing and it is pretty
much ignored like an awkward elephant in the room.
What
is really funny to me is that I have the most calm, normal
life you can imagine. Yes, the content of what I work
with can certainly be considered racy, but just like any
professional woman with a child, husband and dog I spend
my day working, taking my child to school, walking the
dog and having a loving, monogamous relationship with
my hubby. People often think that we must have orgies
at the house with nude people all around us, and I have
to laugh because my day is spent mostly on the phone and
computer making business deals, addressing customer needs
and doing things like writing and paying bills. Terribly
exciting stuff! We don't drink, do drugs and we don't
even go out much. An exciting night for us is spent renting
a movie from Blockbuster and having some popcorn. I know,
pretty sedate, but true.
Bottom
line is that my husband and I feel very strongly that
people should have resources to learn about their sexuality
in an empowered manner. We have sacrificed a lot to do
it, but we are passionate about what we do and feel strongly
that we are doing the right thing. It is great to get
one eMail and phone call after another from people like
yourself that are learning about it for the first time
and are amazed that more people aren't aware of the facts
regarding it.
Thanks
for your question, I hope this gives you an inside glimpse
into the world of female ejaculation education.
We have a wide variety of gift sets to choose from, with
each one offering a unique way to bring a smile to your
sweetheart's face!

Hi
Lisa,
I
and my man would like to thank you for the excellent information
you provide on your web site and if it was not for my
man finding it I would not be writing this e-mail to you
now. He suggested that we look at your web site having
seen FE on movies and wondered if it was possible to do
this as it turned him on so much. I, of course, always
wanting to turn my man on in anyway that pleases him and
gives me pleasure in the process decided to buy your book
and dvd on The Art of Female Ejaculation.
I
must confess that I have always been inhibited sexually
until I met my man who is the only man I have met who
will talk about sex and wants to know how I feel and what
I like best. I had never masturbated until I met him and
he gave me a lot of encouragement and confidence in my
own sexuality. I actually feel like a woman instead of
a sex object for the first time in my life.
Having
watched your video and read most of the book I decided
to give it a try. Just like you I lit the candles and
played soft music and laid down in the bath. I wanted
to be able to ejaculate but felt I needed to do it on
my own first so that I knew the technique and if it was
possible for me to do it. My first attempt was pretty
poor but I did have a trickle. I decided that the bath
was not a very comfortable position to be in so I tried
sitting up against the edge of the bed which gave more
of a downward thrust when it came to the moment that you
push down through the electrical shock that goes through
your body just before ejaculation. My man was extremely
excited when I text him to say that I had done it!
The
most nerve racking time was when he was with me and I
was worried that I would not be able to do it for him
but as always he was patient and encouraging and he couldn’t
believe it for a moment when I eventually relaxed and
it happened. We have gone on since then to ecstatic pleasure
without dildos and vibes and mastered the technique manually.
Of course there is the choice of whether you squirt or
whether you don’t but either way it is orgasmic.
I
only have one question. Is there a technique to mastering
the flow? Mine are like oil well gushers and short lived
and I just wonder if there is a way of controlling them
more?
Oh
by the way I am now 50. Never too old to learn but I only
wish that I had met my man and found your web site 20
years ago!!
Thank
you once again from us.
L
& R
The
way to impact flow is just how you would with urine flow,
which is through Kegel exercise. As you may already know,
female ejaculation is not reached through using the Kegel
muscles, but it can aid in how the flow comes out much
like when you have a garden hose and you squeeze it.
As to how much comes out... that is more a factor of hydration,
and length of time it took to build up the fluid during
sexual arousal. Also, many women have more fluid come
out when they have consumed alcohol as they are relaxed
and the body is naturally inclined to flush out all body
fluids in order to detox from the alcohol.
Dear
Lisa,
I just want to take a moment and tell you how much you
have help my wife and I on sex and all that there is to
enjoy about it. We live in a small town in Northern KY,
and there just is not a lot of info. around here in the
form of books and video' stores to buy movies. We both
go to church and are not into the porno scene... but your
site has the most taste and respect about the human body.
You show a lot of class and respect on your web site to
those of us that are not into porno, and I thank you for
that. It is nice to know that there is someone out their
that is willing to help couples with sexual issues and
not try to stuff porno down their throat at the same time.
You truly are the best.
Thanks
again for all your help.

Georgia
Supreme Court Won't Hear Of It
In good 'ol Marietta, Georgia two adult stores were shut
down in 2003. The
city's decision to revoke the stores' business licenses
had survived three appeals, including one in the Georgia
Supreme Court whcih finally said they would not hear the
case.
Despite
the fact that sexually explicit material is protected
by the First Amendment, Georgia law prohibits the sale
of sex toys. Apparently, that is a pretty flimsy Amendment
these days when it comes to the Conservative Right.
Attorney Alan Begner, who represents adult stores across
the state, said that law has been selectively enforced.
"For some reason, Marietta decided to go to war," Begner
said. "Sex toys are illegal in Georgia but are sold widely
because it's a stupid law and nobody cares." If you think
about it, why should anyone care if you like having some
good vibrations for your afternoon delight? Apparently
the good 'ol southern folk of Marietta, Georgia do.
The
city has an 11-page adult-entertainment ordinance under
which sex shops can operate, but within strict guidelines.
Begner, who claimed the law made Marietta look "foolish."
We agree with that statement!
Praying For The Smut Peddler
I
am not sure if the issue will ever be resolved when it
comes to conflicts around adult businesses being available
to the public and those who find that immoral. My heart
goes out to those with a brick and mortar store because
I certainly would not want to deal with the red tape and
legal issues they do.
Yet
again, another adult store is the issue of controversy.
This time it is in Kentucky for Jeree Mills, owner of
a store called Dreamworld that sells pornographic magazines,
movies and novelties.
When
you hear the word novelties it really means sex toys.
The reason everyone is calling them that these days is
because apparently many local governments want adult businesses
to lie and say that the cool vibrator you want is not
a sex toy but is really a novelty and couldn't possibly
be used to stimulate your genitals... why that would be
obscene!
Yes,
you heard me right, obscene. Jeree Mills has pleaded guilty
to distributing obscene material (a misdemeanor) and received
the maximum fine of $250 and 90 days in jail. Jeree said
she will remain in business, but as part of the plea,
she agreed to close the store between 2 a.m. and 2 p.m.
Sunday, meaning it won't be open during morning church
services because apparently they think that God is disgusted
with sexuality and nudity. Seems odd considering they
also believe he is responsible for creating it.
Church
groups said they feared the store would feed addiction
to pornography because apparently Christian folk there
do have sex, but they don't watch it or enjoy being creative
about it by using lubricants, and vibrators.
Mills'
attorney, H. Louis Sirkin of Cincinnati, sought to void
Kentucky's law against distributing obscene material as
unconstitutional, meaning the case could have had wider
implications for Kentucky had it gone forward. But Mills
said she decided to plead guilty because her attorneys
and Dixon worked out an agreement both sides could live
with.
Mills
said she probably would have been convicted by a local
jury but would have won on appeal. Meaning that the local
yokels there would not be able to make an intelligent
decision based on her constitutional rights. The
Constitution (oh yes, apparently we still have one of
those thing-er-ma-jigs) protects her right to sell adult
material and the right of adults to buy it.
The
Rev. Leonard Lester, who pastors a Barbourville church
and helped lead opposition to Mills' store, said he was
satisfied Mills had been prosecuted as far as the law
allows. But he said church members would push legislators
to raise the stakes on distributing obscene material,
making it a felony. And he said opponents will keep praying
for the demise of Dreamworld. "We're not out of the woods
yet, because it's still open," he said. So apparently,
the good Reverend finds himself with wood.
A
Bit Much For Exotic Dancers
In Pomona, California, police are visiting exotic dancer's
homes to verify if the address provided to the club is
the address in which they reside. The operators of the
clubs are perplexed at why police and city officials are
giving their employees and entertainers so much attention.
Claims being made say that police are not only intimidating
the dancers but are violating their First Amendment rights
and invading their right to privacy under the state Constitution.
It's a form of intimidationand as a result dancers are
leaving to work in other cities.
Pomona
regulations require managers, doormen, ticket takers,
waitresses and other employees as well as dancers to have
permits. As part of the process, workers must fill out
applications, be fingerprinted, photographed and undergo
background checks, said Police Chief James Lewis. Background
investigations include checking for any type of criminal
history. An investigator then goes to the dancers' homes
to make sure they live at the addresses they list on the
application.
It
is being said that the visits only serve to embarrass
and ostracize dancers in front of their families, neighbors
and even employers who at times aren't aware of the second
jobs the women have or are seeking. Many of them have
day jobs and don't want their employers to know they dance
at night for a little extra money.
It
seems that having a drivers license address match the
application should be enough and the antagonistic way
that the police are conducting themselves feels like the
old scenario in which a child tauntingly points a finger
in the face of a sibling saying "I'm not touching
you." No, but they are sure making an ass of themselves.
Aussies Approve Of Porn
According
to a new poll by the Eros Association, three-quarters
of Australians have no objection to the sale of X-rated
nonviolent pornographic movies. The survey found that
one in seven Australians were in favor of nonviolent,
X-rated films being available from licensed adult shops,
while 17 per cent of respondents were against their availability.
Laws in all Australian states prevent the legal sale of
X-rated films, but it is allowed in the ACT and Northern
Territory. An Eros spokeswoman said the
findings seemed to suggest that people did not want explicit
movies banned, just properly regulated by the Government.

The Virginia Supreme Court has removed a state law prohibiting
sex between unmarried people. However, there are still
laws that need changing such as the anti-sodomy law. Virginia's
anti-sodomy law prohibits oral and anal sex even for married
couples, but gay-rights activists say the statute is only
used to target homosexuals.
Legislators for years have rejected efforts to repeal
the law. They left it on the books again last year even
after the Texas decision held that such laws are unconstitutional.
It's a strong message to legislators that they must repeal
Virginia's sodomy law.
The court said that decisions by married or unmarried
persons regarding their intimate physical relationship
are elements of their personal relationships that are
entitled to due process protection. The ruling stemmed
from a woman's lawsuit seeking $5 million in damages from
a man who infected her with herpes. She claims the man
did not inform her that he was infected before they had
sex. Richmond Circuit Judge Theodore J. Markow threw out
the lawsuit, ruling that the woman was not entitled to
damages because she had participated in an illegal act.
The
law against fornication had been on the books since the
early 1800s but was last enforced against consenting adults
in 1847.
Political Web Site Gets Taken Over By Porn
In
London, a Conservative party association in the small
Welsh town of Delyn is trying to buy back its Web site
domain name after it was purchased by pornographers. The
Conservative association took on a new Internet address
but forgot to renew their ownership of the old name.
The
site once promoted the activities of the local Conservative
association, offering news about area councilors and useful
contact numbers. Now users are presented with offers to
buy hard-core movies.
The
association is hoping to buy the domain name back and
in the meantime all links from Conservative party Web
sites to the hard-core Delyn site have been erased.
Las
Vegas Porn Operation Sued For Spam
In Las Vegas, a pornography operation that sent out hundreds
of thousands of sexually explicit "spam" eMail messages
has been temporarily shut down in the first case of federal
spam laws being used against sex marketers.
The
Federal Trade Commission said the operation, which runs
up to 20 Web sites, did not properly label its eMail with
a "SEXUALLY-EXPLICIT:" tag and violated several other
aspects of a year-old anti-spam law.
Six
businesses and five men have had their assets temporarily
frozen by a Las Vegas federal court and are prohibited
from sending out any deceptive spam as the case proceeds,
the FTC said. Only one of the men charged actually sent
out the e-mail but the others are held liable because
they hired him.
Unwanted
pornography and other forms of spam account for up to
85 percent of all e-mail, up from roughly 55 percent when
the CAN-SPAM Act took effect one year ago. The defendants
included explicit content in their messages, did not label
them properly, did not label them as advertisements and
did not provide a way for consumers to stop getting them,
all violations of the CAN-SPAM Act.
Some
of the messages falsely claimed that access to the Web
sites was free, a violation of deceptive-business laws.
Those charged could be required to give up the money they
made from the operation and prevented from sending out
any more deceptive eMail. The FTC does not have the authority
to put people in jail or levy fines for a first offense.
Tsunami Relief From Brothel Donations
A
German brothel owner is donating part of her takings from
clients. "It's not every day you can make a charitable
gesture by going to a brothel but owner Mercedes Mueller
wanted to do something to help. Mueller who owns the Happy
FKK Club in the western city of Dortmund, said clients,
prostitutes and the public had all responded with great
enthusiasm to her gesture, and that about 1,300 euros
($1,700) had been raised so far. "We have as much of a
right to raise money as any other business," she said.
"We all have a heart too. I hope it will serve as an example
to others."
Sperm
Donations From Politicians
In one Australian state, politicians have been asked to
lend a hand and become sperm donors to help increase supplies
at an in-vitro fertilization clinic. The Monash IVF clinic
has written to 25 parliamentarians aged under 45 in Victoria
state asking them to set an example for the rest of the
male population by becoming sperm donors. "We
hope that if some of the leading role models within our
community become donors, others may follow suit," the
Monash letter said.
Women Impregnated With Wrong Sperm Delivers
Laura
Howard in Connecticut was artificially inseminated with
the wrong sperm and has just given birth to a healthy
baby boy. Last year she sued an infertility clinic in
Bridgeport, Connecticut, after her doctor informed her
that she had mistakenly been injected with sperm from
a man who is not her fiancé. While
she's happy to have her baby, this error has made her
life much more complicated in terms of her relationship
with her fiancé and legal issues.
Columbia House Said Planning Adult Video Club
Executives
from the famous “12 for a penny” Columbia House record
and movie club were prowling the Adult Entertainment Expo
last week... turns out they are preparing to launch their
own Adult video club with Playboy Entertainment by January’s
end called Hush.
I
think the name is actually quite telling that the world
wants porn but is still not ready to deal with our natural
curiosity of it. I would not be surprised if a porn company
that goes into business soon will name their company...
Hypocrite.
AFF: Watchdog For Adult Entertainment
Protecting
First Amendment rights while at once warding off attacks
against Adult entertainment is the goal of the Adult Freedom
Foundation (AFF), a newly forming group which vows to
be a watchdog for the Adult entertainment world. Owners
claim that all too often, the Adult entertainment industry
has been the target of misinformation and unfounded criticism
and that the AFF will supply accurate and positive information
to the public for a change.
In
addition to offering media access to legal, scientific,
and industry executives to counter what they consider
false claims by politicians and pressure groups, the AFF
said they will watch especially to stop uninformed groups,
right wing and otherwise, from co-mingling child porn
with lawful Adult entertainment in bids to outlaw both.
AFF
media consultant said this of the new organization… "The
AFF is dedicated to fighting child pornography," Pauly
said. "While adamantly against child pornography, AFF
believes adults should be allowed to enjoy erotic entertainment.
And, that the average adult accepts that right for other
adults to choose lawful erotic entertainment."
