I was thrilled (AKA terrified!) to be asked to speak at the Montreal chapter of Creative Mornings in April. This awesome morning lecture series is hosted monthly in 82 cities worldwide, where creators muse on a common theme. Last month’s theme was Sex- you see the connection for Prude. I spoke to an amazing crowd … Continue reading

Getting Filthy in LA–Angelinos Have More Sex
It feels like summer in LA. I just took a warm and windy walk to the dry cleaners and purchased myself a Miller High Life on the way home. The Champagne of Beers always reminds me of visiting Robbie in this apartment, before it was mine too, and painting the walls Lion beige while swilling … Continue reading
Will Forty Beads Spice up Your Sex Life?
So I don’t look like Gwyneth Paltrow, folks. I know, shock and awe. I broke the cleanse last night with some red wine at a birthday. But I think going it squeaky clean since last Monday did me good. I’m feeling way more aware of what I’m consuming. And I exercised every day this week! … Continue reading
Vibrators Officially Mainstream
After reading Vibrators Carry the Conversation in The New York Times on Wednesday it would seem that our battery operated friends are now officially mainstream news. Yup, it’s true. It started with The Rabbit on SATC and now you can hoof on down to Walgreens and nag yourself a self-stimulator in a lavender box. Lucky … Continue reading
DIY Porn
Over the weekend I read this Globe and Mail article: How DIY porn might save your relationship and thusly I’ve been reflecting on the ways that DIY helped the state of my union. By that, I mean both my relationship with porn and with my husband. As I’ve no doubt blogged about before, I used … Continue reading
After Sex Cuddles
Check out this “My After Sex Buddy” commercial. It’s pretty entertaining even if the “men don’t cuddle” stereotype is a little hackneyed. The truth is, I’ve never been with a man who didn’t snuggle (or at least sleep tangled up) after sex, having grown up in the land of single mother reared, sensitive-new-age men. But … Continue reading
Office Sex
Are offices the new nunneries? This clip from an Alain de Botton talk has me pondering whether they are. Apparently, in 18th century French literature 98% of sex scenes are set in a nunnery or monastery. By comparison, Alain muses about whether the modern day equivalent of nookie in the house of God is office … Continue reading
Merry Christmas!!!!
Well, I’m deep in the Christmas haze. Hubby is currently making a bacon weave, also known as a heart attack, alongside my mother in law decorating gingerbread cookies with my niece. Apparently Grandma was amused to find a “cock and balls” cookie cutter this morning in my sister-in-law’s kitchen drawer. Well played, sis. Everyone had … Continue reading
The Pull Out Method
I just found this nifty “Am I Pregnant” widget via Jezebel and gave it a whirl. After answering a few quick questions I was counseled that if I do not care to become pregnant, I should take the morning after pill. The reason my answers prompted this advice is because I never know how to … Continue reading
Lube Proven to Heat Things Up
So I was just catching up on Charlie Glickman’s blog, and in particular reading about the new lube study conducted at Indiana University, when I smelled smoke coming from the kitchen. You see, I’ve a habit of putting on food, coffee, bathwater, what-have-you and then returning to my work and forgetting about the former altogether. … Continue reading
