If you're tired of being resigned to "frumpy" flats to go with that new dress (because the last time you tried heels resulted in a youtube worthy experience of embarrassment), fret no more. Every woman you see strutting her 6" heels, oozing grace and feminine confidence, started clumsily at one point. The secret is patience and a bit of training. Even if you only have the rare occasion to strut heels, the ability to pull it off when it's needed is like having a secret weapon at the ready.

Following the steps below will have you walking tall in a matter of weeks. Skipping steps will only cause unnecessary pain and frustration! Also, when starting in heels, form good habits that will follow and make higher heels easier later. 

Twisted Skyn, an online retailer of apparel, shoes, and much more, has announced the addition of new 2012 items to their expanding lineup of summer wear. Breezy and cool summer dresses, sexy draw dropping clubwear, and unique swimwear, such as faux fur bikinis and metallic monokinis, are just a few examples of some of the exciting new items now available.

Bondage should never push the "bondee" into feeling unsafe. Take it slow, until you both find what works. So what do you need to get started? You may want to try some things around the house before deciding what kind of restraints to purchase. Handcuffs can be made by wrapping masking tape around the wrists several times (stay away from duct tape!) or using a belt wrapped several times and buckled on the end. You can also rig up a blindfold with a tie or scarf. Start with restraining the hands. Why? Because the whole point of being restrained is to give up control, and hands are the first things used to control a situation. Take hands out of the game, and suddenly you're the boss. You could handcuff the wrists together, tie them to the bedposts (not too long as to lose circulation) or tie them to the bondee's own ankles. Tieing hands and ankles together (hogtie) is best for women or men who will be on the receiving end of sex.

First of all, what is a transgender? It's actually an umbrella term for those whose sexual identity or expression differs from their anatomical birth sex. A transvestite, for example, dresses as the opposite sex as a form of expression, whether it's for the purpose of comfort, arousal or fun. A transsexual on the other hand, identifies him or herself  opposite of his/her "birth sex". Not all transsexuals opt for gender reassignment surgery. Some wish to keep their birth genitals, and some opt for hormone therapy which helps match their appearance to their preferred identity. Terms commonly used when referring to transsexuals are FTM (female to male) - this is someone whose birth sex was female, but they later transitioned to male.... and MTF (male to female) - vice versa... you get the point.

As some of you may know, I co-own a  lingerie/adult toy company. Great perks... all the toys I can get my greedy little hands on. And I like to have personal knowledge of each and every product we carry, which means a lot of testing on my part. I know, poor me. So although you might think my reviews are biased, because I'm selling these products, I assure you - I keep my opinions as real and unbiased as possible. If a toy sucks, I say so, and pull it off our shelves. That being said, I had a spur of the moment opportunity today to test a toy. 

My journey of exploring my sexuality was all done in my head. Nothing physical ever came of it. It was all done by imagination, exploring fantasies, and lots of long talks. And here's what I learned:

I finally tried my Club Vibe today. What is a Club Vibe, you ask? An interactive vibrating panty that litterally makes a party in your pants. And my initial reaction was much like a kid at Christmas while trick or treating with the Easter Bunny. First of all, the panties are very cute and extremely comfy. Secondly, the bullet is very small, discreet, and powerful. But best of all, it vibrates to the sounds around you. Soft noises - soft vibrations. Loud abrubt noises - and.... well.... lets just say your girly parts will be at attention. When I came out of the bedroom wearing my club vibe, my husband asked me what I'd been doing. The gentle low reverberations of his voice reacted in my panties. I responded, "Ask me louder". So with eye brow raised, he bellowed "WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN DOING?" as my legs simultaneously buckled with the intense sensations the powerful vibrations gave me from his loud deep voice. We were headed out to see Hangover 2, and I was simply titillating with the fun my new vibe and our local Imax theater had in store for me.
