It's Time For War!

I remember November 4, 1980, the year when Ronald Reagan won the Republican election for President of the United States.

At the time, my women friends and I all said that our country was moving backward in the area of Women’s Rights – and we were right!

Fast forward to November 4, 2014 and what has changed?

You may say that it has not only moved backward, but it’s taken a quantum leap into the Dark Ages with the election results this week – not only with Women’s Rights, but LGBT Rights, Children’s Rights, Non-White Rights, and more.

How did we let it happen?

Apathy?

Ignorance of the issues?

Too much money in the 1% and not enough in the 99%?

It’s done and all we can do now is decide how to keep it from continuing, or happening again. Will people never bother to look at history and learn from it?

If you share my sorrow over this week’s elections, please make a commitment to yourself, your family, your community, your world to fight for changes in the future.

We used to be a great country, and we still can be again. Make your voices heard!

I blow you a kiss!

Do You Love Kinky Books?

Do you enjoy fantasizing about being in a relationship that involves quite a bit of kink? Maybe you love to imagine what might happen in the basement of a house like the one above? Are you thrilled when you read about how others have lived in a 24/7 kinky relationship?

Then stay tuned! I have just been told that a particular publishing company is going to publish one of my books! It still needs to have the artist rendition completed for the cover, and it will need to go through some editing, but it will be published!

I know what many women (and men) fantasize about so I've put a lot of it in this book. I'll let you know when it will be available for your purchase. Just don't blush when you read it, and if it sounds like something you'd like to act out, let your partner read it, too.

More shall be revealed - and now I'm on my way back to finish writing more books for your raunchy minds!

I blow you a kiss!

Nail Polish?

I have just a few questions about the new fad in nail polish!

Did anyone notice that it was all men on the team that created this nail polish that will let a woman know if “roofies” (date rape drug) has been added to her drink? All she has to do is dip a finger (or toe?) into her drink and it will change color, indicating that all is not right in Paradise.

That may be fine, and some may say it’s men who are trying to help women prevent rape, but I wonder what that really means?

Isn’t it about time we taught men that rape is not okay under any circumstance? Why are we applauding this creation at all? Why should women be responsible for whether they are raped or not? And why are we still saying that if a woman dresses in a certain way they are just "asking for it?"

Put the nail polish on the man’s . . . (uh, decided not to go there), and let him take the responsibility for not raping!

As a mother of two adult sons, I hope I taught them how to respect a woman and not feel it was their “right” to rape her. 

I could go on and on, but I’ll let it rest there, and give you the opportunity to think through this issue and what it really means for your own life.

I blow you a kiss!

FINDING EXCUSES

So many reasons (excuses?) are being made about why mass shootings continue.

We blame it on “white privilege.” Yes, there is a certain amount of that, I know, but not everyone who claims racial superiority is a killer.

We blame it on “mental illness.” Yes, mental illness often enters into someone’s need to go out and kill a lot of people, but not all mentally ill people grab a gun.

We blame it on “misogyny.” Yes, unfortunately, we still have too much of that present in this world, but not all misogynists are out to kill masses of people.

Sometimes we blame it on “broken homes.” My four children are from a broken home, but all are loving, productive, and outstanding citizens of the world.

What or who else can we blame? Why don’t we start by taking back our responsibility as parents?

Once upon a time, children were given strict rules to follow, and even stricter discipline ensued if those rules were broken. I doubt if many of us will ever forget being turned over a knee for a good spanking, nor will we forget the sounds of a belt being pulled off.

Then along came Dr. Benjamin Spock. Because I agreed with most of what he said, my own children were raised by Spock’s suggestion that we become "more flexible and affectionate" with our children. Nothing wrong with that!

But too many parents took his words to mean that they should never discipline their children or teach right from wrong. It became "let them do whatever they want to do." Responsibility as a parent was abdicated and today we see the results.

If we feel rejected, then lets go kill that person and everybody else in addition! 

If guns make us look like a man, then lets use them - and get bigger guns than anyone else!

If we want everyone to be like us, then lets get rid of those who aren't! 

After all, Dr. Spock told our parents that it's okay to do whatever we feel like doing, and our conscience will stay clear.

I'm not trying to be simplistic, but why not add my own reasons for the mass killings to the list? I keep thinking about this, so I may not entirely be finished with my rant. All I can say is this - when you have children, take full responsibility before you let them out into the world.

I blow you a kiss!

Gay Pride!

For the past two summers I have visited my brother in St. Petersburg, Florida and we watched the Gay Pride Parade there. Leading off the parade was this massive group of female motorcyclists. I was extremely impressed, since I can't even ride a bicycle because my sense of balance is nonexistent. 

Little by little I will add other pictures from the parade. I will miss it this year by a few weeks, but it's always quite a success and each year it gets bigger. Most of the parade was in the rain this past summer, but they completed the journey in high spirits. 

Before the parade starts, all kinds of friends gather at Georgie's Alibi for breakfast, since Georgie's is not limited to gays. They have superb hamburgers and other good food, plus the requisite drinks.

You might want to plan a trip to St. Petersburg, FL this summer and attend the Gay Pride Parade the last Saturday of June. You can tell them that Fanny sent you, but they might not want to remember me! 

I blow you a kiss!

Pinterest Pleasures

Well, I did it! During the recent holiday season, I decided to start my own Pinterest page. You can go to it here. 

There are all sorts of “goodies” on there that some of you will enjoy, I’m sure. For example, you’ll find several that focus on Fantasy, like “Fantasy Housing”, “Satyrs and other mythical beings”, “Fae, Wizards, Elves”, “Wicca and other Magick”, “Woman Power and Magick”, “Otherworldly Visions”, “Places” - and so much more.

You’ll also find my own brand of humor on the “Off-color Fun” board. I have created a separate board for “Writing Inspiration” where I keep ideas and images I'll use in writing some of my stories. I especially enjoy finding inspirational quotes, and I have put those in “Words of Inspiration.”

There is one board on “Teaching Methods,” which may be why the Pinterest team thinks some of my posts contain content they don’t allow. They haven’t told me which ones in particular, but I have a hunch this is the board they are referring to. Until they take them off, I’ll leave them on for your pleasure (and mine).

There is a board on “Ancient Art,” another on “Feng Shui,” and another on “Exotic Dancing.”

Of course, I couldn’t create a Pinterest presence without including “Books” and “Writing Inspiration.” You might find what you enjoy most on “Living, Loving, and Relationships.”

Take a look to see what is there, and if you wish, feel free to “follow me,” and if you have anything you think would fit on one of my boards, please let me know.
