Some Music

My apologies for the sleaze.  BUT--I though some of my male readers might appreciate the theme behind this video.  And please note below that I have also included a much better song, also from Lady, as well as some really good old-school 80s funk from Klymaxx. 

Enjoy!

And now for a much better and more intelligent video from Lady and Big Gates:

And because I promised:

 

 Love y'all!  MEAN IT!

Superman? Iron Man? How 'bout Wonder Woman, Supergirl, or Lady Death?

Oh, so people are all pissed off that Ben Affleck will be playing Superman.  Big deal!  What I want to know is--why hasn't Hollyweird gotten their shit together and made a Wonder Woman movie yet?  Or updated Supergirl?  Or gone totally off the rails and rallied round Dark Horse Comics' gorgeously Goth Lady Death?

These are my super heroes, as far as comic book characters go.  I loved Wonder Woman so much as a child that I wanted to be her when I grew up.  I didn't know being a super hero wasn't an actual job.  But hell, I was six, what did I know?

What say you, dear Readers?

Quick edit:  well, damn!  Ask and ye shall receive, maybe?

All-Natural Beauty

Here on my blog, I celebrate not just being a strong woman, but a woman's beauty as well.  I just read an article about a woman named Asha Mandela, a real-life Rapunzel, whose hair has seen her through a lot in her life.  You can read the article from Yahoo here.

A lot gets made about a woman's hair.  Chaka Khan sang about it on her album, Come to My House.  Britney Spears and Sinead O'Connor sheared theirs off at one point, though Sinead had been doing it for years, and when Britney did it, people questioned her sanity.  I know a lot of men who prefer their women bobbed, while there are others who prefer length.  As a strong woman, I have always worn my own hair in a pixie, until the past five or so years, when I have kept it in one form of a bob or another.  I think this woman needs to be honored the best way I know how--with music!

Book Review--The Busy Woman's Guide to Getting Fit, Fierce and Fabulous by Daniel Wallen

Those of you who have been reading the blog for a bit know that I am a somewhat voracious reader, and that not all of my reading relates to Dominance/submission and kink.  Sometimes I just like to read something light but good.  In this work, “light” definitely fits the bill.  “Good”—not so much.

Daniel Wallen is a certified personal trainer.  On his web site, you will see a picture of his smiling, non-threatening, irritatingly approachable mug.  I’m sure Wallen is a helluva nice guy, which is probably my personal problem with him.  In the Busy Woman's Guide to Getting Fit, Fierce and Fabulous, Wallen wants you to get your fierce on.  He wants you to get your fab on.  He wants you to be the best you possible.  This is great—if you’re a high school girl. 

Maybe it’s because I’m used to sites such as dragondoor.com, or maybe it’s because I’m 42, or maybe it’s because, through my dance background, I had to overcome all sorts of strange body and weight insecurities I suffered as a teen, but there’s something in Wallen’s tone that doesn’t sit well with me. 

I’ve only been able to get through about half of Wallen’s book, which I managed to snag (thankfully) for free.  I’m glad that it’s free, too.  No way in hell am I parting with my hard-earned dosh for this drivel.

Bottom line—don’t bother, ladies.  You’re smarter than Wallen, and I know you’re smarter than this book.  No, Wallen, I don’t feel like shopping or getting my “learn” on (I believe this is what adults refer to as “education”).  I will not be talked down to, nor will I lift (or work out in) anything that’s pink.  I am not a doll, nor do I aspire to be one.  I’m already fierce, thank you very much, and kettlebells are my friends.  I think I’ll be hitting up dragondoor.com, and re-reading Neghar Fonooni’s excellent article, Train Like a Man—Especially If You’re a Woman. 

Hey, Wallen—stop talking down to us like you’re a seventh-grade boy crushing on his best friend’s older sister.  I don’t think I’m the kind of fierce you can handle. 

If you’ll excuse me, there’s this deadlift I need to work on.  

What This Dominant Woman Finds Attractive

I am writing this in response to a post found on a submissive man's blog.  Though I am not looking to publicly shame him, as I'm sure someone will over in his comments section, should they so choose to do that, I'm sure to many, either here or there, this may be exactly how it could be read.

The post was in regard to what he, as a submissive man, finds attractive in women.  I responded to him personally via his e-mail.  He keeps asking why I don't post my comments to his blog.

You want my response?  Here goes:

When it comes to what I find physically attractive, because I am a HUMAN, I tend to notice people's eyes first.  If I like what I see there (sharp contrast i. e. light eyes/dark skin and vice-versa, intelligence, sparkle, a tendency toward mischief), and if I see fit, I may approach him.  What I truly find attractive, though, is his submissiveness, whether he states it outright or I tease it out of him later.  I did mention the intelligence, didn't I?  Submissive men, in my experience, are more likely to congregate in quiet settings, such as libraries, art galleries, small coffee shops, book shops, and intimate restaurants, rather than run-of-the-mill bars or dance clubs.  They tend to move slowly, speak with intelligence and wit, and take great pains to make sure I (or, sometimes, She, if he's with someone) is comfortable.  I think Max Headroom may have quipped it best, as one point, back in the mire of the 80s:  "I get my kicks above the waistline, Sunshine."

PLEASE COMPREHEND AS BEST YOU CAN.  PLEASE WRAP YOUR WEE SUB-MIND AROUND THIS.  IF A MAN IS TRULY SUBMISSIVE, THEN HIS SUBMISSION WILL ALWAYS BE WHAT I FIND MOST ATTRACTIVE.

D'oh!  Now I'll have to post a comment, just to get this out of my system.

For your entertainment, however, please find attached two (two!) videos for your viewing pleasure--though I wish music video directors would stick with a small portion of reality in regard to truly office-appropriate attire.  You're welcome!

NeYo:  Miss Independent

. . .  because who doesn't love Aretha and Annie?

Just a Quick Follow-up

That last line Nicki spits in that video from my last post--"Couldn't get a fan if you was hangin' from the ceilin'."  So funny!

I don't care what people say about Nicki.  I think she's hilarious.

You know else I like--Li'l Kim.

Yeah, that's right, I love Li'l Kim.  Oh, I'm sorry, DID YOU NOT HEAR ME?  I LOVE AND ADMIRE LI'L KIM, THE RAPPER WHO MAKES WHITE PEOPLE NERVOUS AND WHO DISGUSTS THE AVERAGE MAN WITH HER BLATANTLY COMFORTABLE SEXUALITY AND CONFIDENCE.

Now I know you heard that.

And yes, I realize this isn't just a music blog.  However--if you want to get to know me, there are certain things that one may need to accept, such as my all-over-the-place musical taste.  I was going to post a video here, but can't find the one I like.  Oh well, guess you'll just have to wait.

What's Been Up So Far

Hey all, I have returned for now (for NOW) simply to say that YES, I AM ALIVE!  Oooooooooo and I bet somewhere there's a submissive quaking in his socks, whining, "She's baaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!  She's baaaaaaaaaaaack!"  and ready to piss himself (uh-uh--you take that mess outside, dog!).

So here's where I've been and what's been up.

After spending a lot of time knitting with nearly nothing but all-natural fibers and attempting (rather lamely) to spin, I've sort of gone on a natural kick.  Except this is more than just a kick.  I'm thinking this may be yet another lifestyle change, but for the good.  Of EVERYONE.  I've been trying to stay away from stuff with chemicals, and I've been trying to take walks, lift slightly heavier than usual (hard to do when you've somehow thrown your back out carrying computers), and generally relaxing a lot more than usual.

This has also gotten me thinking in regard to what I may be seeking in a submissive man, should one ever bother to look up from his pathetic wank-fest and stop fantasizing about what I could do with (or, more to the point, WITHOUT) his dick.  But I'm going to save that for a later post.  After all, I am still a woman.  I'm not giving it all away that easily.  In the meantime, please enjoy this wee video from Nicki Minaj and Ciara, in regard to how I'm feeling just now.

All Apologies

Yes, I more than realize it has been well over a year.  What--you never questioned your own pathetic existence and why you do what you do?  No?  Oddly, I'm still in a slight state of limbo over mine.  So, with that, please allow me just a few more days to sit still and think a bit more.  Please accept my sincerest apologies, and I'm glad to see I apparently still have followers and readers.  Thanks!
