VedaSloan 119179 Report post Posted May 21, 2010 Thanks for all the love everyone! I am committed to a minimum of four articles (at least one per month). I will be writing an article concerning the law and how it affects my life and I will also be writing about whore stigma. I'll keep you posted! *also, I literally wrote that article up the second I heard back from the editor and was apparently too excited to proofread and now I can't figure out how to edit. There were some repetitions and a couple of split infinitives and the perfectionist in me is going nuts. haha. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

whatsup 11893 Report post Posted May 22, 2010 Congrats Erin and I look forward to many more articles from you. I like your term "sex positivism" with you promoting the trade, I am sure that the outcome will be positive. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest s******ecan**** Report post Posted May 22, 2010 Congratulations Erin on an informative and well written article. No doubt your article will have a positive impact on many newbies and as a result it will also benefit the SP's that host those newbies. I think your article should be made available in the "Newbie" section here on CERB as a sticky. I particularly enjoyed this quote; "Let us guide you and just enjoy the ride."

capitalman 3861 Report post Posted May 23, 2010 Excellent Erin....very good article. It seems to cover everything. This term "Sex Worker" bugs me though....it makes me want to go become celibate. I mean, it reminds me of real down and dirty blue collar jobs like a janitor or labourer or something. Isn't there a better term out there in the world? I think a sexier term than "worker" would help keep my libido working and maybe entice some new people out there! Ymmv, imho. ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not supposed to be sexy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VedaSloan 119179 Report post Posted June 1, 2010 Hey everyone, My second article is up. This one is a brief overview of the laws in Canada surrounding prostitution--it's a bit dry, but hey, some people still think prostitution is illegal, when it isn't, and never has been. http://www.sexlifecanada.ca/ottawa/ottawa-sexlife-journal/sex-work-and-law-canada Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OldBuck 1074 Report post Posted June 1, 2010 What a good head! What a good Heart! And thanks for the articles and reference. I also liked Dr.Peggy Kleinplatz's identification of 8 components that contribute to great sex: 1. Being present, focused and embodied 2. Connection, alignment, merger, being in sync 3. Deep sexual and erotic intimacy 4. Extraordinary communication, heightened empathy 5. Authenticity, being genuine, uninhibited, transparency . 7. Exploration, risk-taking, fun 8. Vulnerability and surrender Any comments? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VedaSloan 119179 Report post Posted July 8, 2010 My article on whore stigma is up: http://www.sexlifecanada.ca/ottawa/ottawa-sexlife-journal/whore-stigma At the beginning I quote lyrics to one of my favourite songs, so I'm going to include the youtube link for anyone interested: There is no official video, so I had to choose between a homemade video or the Chinese ballet video. I went with the homemade video. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
