My wife and I have a fundamental disagreement. She thinks nude modeling is degrading to women, and while there are circumstances in which this is true, when it is done freely, with mature adult deliberation, and due respect for the person modeling, I believe it can be liberating, beautiful, and healing for both the model and the observer. As my friend, @STORMYENT said in her...

Most of the hub-bub about the site change has gone completely over my head. I am so ignorant of computer technology, I don't understand what people are complaining about. I never had trouble up or downloading my blog, because I never have any pictures, or videos, or audios in my blog(which is why nobody reads it). I wouldn't even begin to have a clue of...

Oscar Wilde, author, social critic, and all-around bad boy of the Victorian age, wrote his novel THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY to illustrate the ancient adage: "When the gods wish to punish us, they answer our prayers."

And, as you know, I was one of your helpers until Comet kicked me, and I left to join the Vienna Boys Choir. I've been struggling over this letter, because it's about my wish for you to...

I have been here since September, and this is one of the unique situations I have been in. This site was created by women, essentially FOR women- a sorority of models who share a mutual commitment to a new culture, and standard of beauty. One senses the sisterhood in the brief comments that go back and forth. And then, there's the members. I often feel...

Happy Joe Di Maggio's Birthday, everybody!
I was 6 years old, and in the first grade on the day President Kennedy was killed. My story begins with the line that most do who were on the east coast of the U.S. that day " We had just come back from lunch." It was Friday afternoon, and there were only two days of school the next week because of Thanksgiving. I was...

The armistice which ended the Great War, the War to end all wars, officially took effect at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month of the year 1918. Within little more than two decades, the War to end all wars had to "Take a number". And the truth is, the Great war did not end because of any military victory, or...
