My boyfriend and I re-enacted my being a virgin. (I describe it fully in Tales of a Sacred Prostitute.)<br /><br />I didn't have quite the negative experiences that you did, as my introduction to sex, but my first time was with a boy who was also a virgin. Neither of us knew what we were doing, and it wasn't very good. Doing this play-acting later touched something deep inside me. A need that I didn't even know about was filled that night, in creating a first time that was filled with honoring, asking permission, and with a man who knew what he was doing and was concerned about my pleasure.<br /><br />Wouldn't it be great if we did get to be initiated by someone who knew what they were doing? I wonder what a different world we would live in if this was the case.Selena Truthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09566998717333268650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5577198154726690829.post-71385480797573880942009-07-03T03:22:56.078-04:002009-07-03T03:22:56.078-04:00What a beautiful experience!

Oddly enough, I've always been against Craigslist as a shopping place for *anything* (apartments, services, household items, etc.) because it attracts so many scammers and liars. I prefer fee-based advertising venues, because free often means unreliable.<br /><br />Regardless, our government has no business legislating morality and "protecting" adult citizens from discreetly advertised erotic services. This kind of censorship has historically helped grow large crime organizations and drug cartels, while hurting the sincere smalltime providers and their everyday patrons.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02922609455926242356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5577198154726690829.post-38765136248493947082009-06-03T12:26:14.021-04:002009-06-03T12:26:14.021-04:00I have often wondered and contemplated this very n...I have often wondered and contemplated this very need for legitimizing the priesthood.
