Yonis Kissing Congress

so i decided that i would do a "Congress" series. last time it was "Suspended Congress", this act has no set name so i'm naming it my self....the "Yonis Kissing Congress".

'some women of the harem, when they are amorous(strongly moved by sexual love), do acts of mouth on the yonis of one another, and some men do the same thing with women'--the karma sutra

'a sacred act in certain historical contexts, going down is widely appreciated by women. the karma sutra's instructions amount to one coy piece of advice: kiss it the way you would kiss her mouth. perhaps that is all that needs to be said. for those who would like more detailed instruction, here are six steps to heading south with confidence:



  1. gently, slowly pinch her lips together, kissing and nuzzling as you would her mouth

  2. spread her lips and run your tongue up to the clitoris, nibbling, and suckling gently. don't forget the little bare patch above the clitoris, where it all comes together

  3. descend to her most hidden spot and grace its entrance with your tongue, teasing her.

  4. plunge your tongue in, devouring her.

  5. take time out to nibble her thighs, run circles round her navel, and generally delay gratification.

  6. return to the clitoris to finish the job.

another one of my favorites...kissing equals winning! O YES!!!!

teen dating violence is a very real thing

teenage love affairs are thought to be light and full of Disney like romance. dates to movies, concerts, and school sporting events. sadly, teen dating is not what it was in the 50's and 60's. today 1 in 3 high school girls will be abused by their boyfriends. now i am not piggy backing off of the rising topic because of the incident between rihanna and chris brown, as sad as it was she was not the first to be abused and she won't be the last. people might read this and ask how can i be so cold to say something so mean. my answer is because i stood where rihanna is, but she couldn't tack rape and pregnancy to her track record. i'd like to do something i never have done before, publicly speak about my abusive teenage love affair.

i was 15 years old in my sophomore year of high school when i started dating the young man i thought was the love of my life, s.l.. he was four years my senior, smart, funny, attractive, all the things a girl would want in a boyfriend. we had know each other for years and it seemed very easy to fall in 'love' with him. at first the dating was simple, he'd come home for the weekend and we would go out on dates, play basketball together, go shopping, and a few times even go to church together. a perfect couple to everyone that saw us, but that didn't last too long.
about 4 months into our relationship, s.l. grew tired of just kissing and heavy petting and he became very mean. often he would say things like, "you don't know how luckily you are, there are girls all over my campus that would love to be my girlfriend". then the subtle hints every once and awhile turned into strong warnings almost everyday. being raised christian i have values and morals and i was trying to hold on to my virginity for as long as possible. around christmas break that year i was ready to end this relationship because along with the constant pressure for sex, s.l. had become physically abusive, but he was rather smart about his abuse. instead of hitting me in front of people and leaving marks that would be visible to my family and friends, he would hit me in private(his car, a hallway,etc.) on my body, arms, and legs. because it was so cold out i was fully clothed and no one could see the marks. afraid to leave him for fear of what he might do, we continued dating through out the winter. i had just got my driver's permit and my dad would let me drive his car to school.
january 24, is a day etched in my memory that won't leave. i was just getting back into school after winter break, the day was finally over and i was walking out of school with my good male friend m.h. we were laughing and planning to go to our friend's house for a biology study group when i saw s.l. leaning on my father's pick up truck that i was driving. trying not to cause a scene i walked over to s.l., who in return started screaming at the top of his lungs, "so is this the guy you're fucking?", m.h. tried to calm the scene by introducing himself and explaining that we were simply platonic friends. embarassed and ready to leave i got in my car, s.l. jumped in the tow cab and wouldn't get out until i let him in. tired of the scene i did, and drove off thinking i could just take him home and he would calm down. as we pulled up in front of his house i thought he would just get out, but he started punching me in the face and pulling me into the street from the car. his being way bigger than me made it very hard to put up much fight. i dont really want to discuss the rape in detail, thats a part of my life i would just rather leave in the past.
about two months after the attack i noticed that my period was running later than usual and i grew concerned so i told my mom about it, she took me to the doctor and they found i was pregnant. i decided that even though i hated s.l. and probably would never be able to forgive him, that the baby should not be punished. the pregnancy was going to be carried full term and at the end i would keep my baby. sometimes our plans aren't what life wants for us, i miscarried after 4 and a half months.

***i have shared my story because i think people need to know that a relationship like this can happen to anyone, doesn't matter who you are. even the sweetest guys can change on you and if it does happen you should report it and soon.***

LeBasse Projects in New York


L.A. based 'LeBasse Projects' will be presenting a three day showing of their "Go East"show in New York. this is my favorite picture from the show.




suspended congress

PSA: for anyone who might be offered that i have a gospel song under this post, realize these...christians have sex...thats how you get little christians.

so i was talking to my good friend about deciding to go celibate, not because i am waiting on marriage, i just need to purify my life out. anywho we went from talking about being celibate to 'the karma sutra'. my friends call me a guru on the matter, because of my depth of knowledge on the subject of human sexual interaction. i have books, info cards, how to manuals, etc. we pulled out my karma sutra info cards and started finding our 'favorite positions'. i have more than one so i've decided to start a "congress"-or sex series. today's favorite congress is the "suspended congress".




'when a man supports himself against a wall, and the woman, sitting on his hands joined together and held underneath her, throws her arms round his neck and putting her thighs alongside his waist, moves herself by her feet which are touching the wall against which the man is leaning, it is called the suspended congress.'--the karma sutra

'sex against a wall is the epitome of the unbridled spontaneous encounter, and we've certainly seen enough of it in movies. and yet its real-world application can be a challenge. field testing suggests that suspended congress is only feasible if the gentleman has been spending more nights at the gym than the pub and the lady is twiggy, petite, and bendy(not true..im nowhere near twiggy). even then it requires pratice to actually enjoy it..
in the cinematic version, the woman is invariably against the wall, with the man rutting enthusiatically. suspended congress offers a slightly more feasible application. first, he's in a stable postition with his shoulders anchored against the wall. second, his interlaced fingers make a secure seat engineered for bearing her weight. third, having her feet against the wall help the woman balance and stay aloft.
if the girl-against-the-wall scenario beckons but you don't have the knack, try a more sustainble verison, in which the woman sits on the edge of a table and wraps her legs around her partner's waist.'--julianne balmain

personally it is great, and if you can master this add water to the situation..the shower suspended congress is one of my all time favorites..

Rach the Good's PSA: bad buy homie, bad buy!

i love my family, but sometimes i don't know how we are related. a male cousin of mine(who shall remain nameless) just made a very bad purchase. he bought a pair of white dress shoes, what the hell were you thinking! i'm not going off the memorial day rule(don't wear white after it), i just think white dress shoes scream westside 8th grade graduation. as a 20 something man, that's a huge no no!

dude please for yourself and your image....please RETURN THOSE SHOES!

if you or someone you love owns a pair of shoes similar to these....throw them out

no more soggy socks




chicago gets snow, its not the cute light dusting either. i'm talking thick and heavy with the ocassional black ice (you slide on that and its your ass mr. post man). if you live here or have visited during the winter, you know that you need a good snow boot. but finding a fashionable and praticial snow boot is a hard task. rubber duck has that task handled....i need a pair of these for the 09/10 winter.....

im going to hell...

so almost every sunday my family goes to church, we have since i was born. today we were sitting in the sanctuary, service was going normal as i sat there and chewed my bubble gum. i swear i wasn't in deep thought about anything and out of nowhere i starting thinking about sex. SEX with the person i can't get off my brain(ummm....TREATED?). that was defiantly the wrong place to be daydreaming about the horizontal mambo. i was actually kind of scared so i wrote my mom a note and asked her "hey mom do you think i'll go to hell cause i'm sitting here thinking about sex?", she turned to me, hiding her laugh and said "yes, rachel you are going to hell. you need to start praying right now!". jesus please forgive me i didn't mean to. guess i shouldn't let my thoughts wander anymore..

he's just not that into you....

i am a die hard twitter user and yesterday the site was a buzz with a trending topic entitled: "he's just not that into you". i can't lie i joined in on the fun and put out a couple ziggers myself. it was fun until i saw one that said " #hesjustnotthatintoyou if its been more than six months and you are just 'good friends'".

this made me a little uncomfortable under my collar because i put up a post not that long ago defending my "situationship" with someone in another state. i think that the post made me uncomfortable because as much as i try to front like i'm happy, i know the truth, i'm really not.
i'm a flesh and blood person like anyone, and like all people my age, i want companionship. i want to be able to say, "yes, such and such is my boyfriend". but i can't. it's been months and i'm still under the title of 'good friend', that's like a figurative kick in the nuts(i don't even have nuts, and it still hurts). i've given up time(travel), money(travel aint cheap), sex, and basically let down all my guards just to prove " HEY I LIKE YOU AND WANT TO BE WITH YOU". with all this i still have gotten nothing in return.

i'm starting to wonder, 'what's the point of staying in this situationship?' i'm tired of allowing myself to be put on the backburner in hopes of being able to say 'i have a signifiant other'. because the honest truth is i have no one...i have someone who talks to me when they feel like it, i have a wonderful fuck when we are together but its so few and far between and i'm staying true to this situation.

im not ashamed to say that i love this guy, but i am ashamed that i am willing to give love and get nothing back in return. i guess its time for me to say goodbye to love. i've done all i could for almost a year, and i'm still just a 'good friend'. i'm tired of being in this by myself...i'll take having no one, rather than having half of a person.
