    I agree with you on the TMI, lol. For a long time I was a phone sex operator and since me and my Mom are super close I never felt the slightest urge to lie about my line of work. However, when she started to ask questions about my calls I drew the line very quickly. I just couldn’t imagine sharing something as kinky and lurid as the details of my phone sex calls with my mom even though she wanted to know about it. Actually the thought alone sends me into a pre adolescent-esque freak out(OH MY GOD MOM! GROSS!).
    And please keep chewing on the daddy/girl play taboo. Its something that I’ve turned over in my mind several times. Can’t wait to hear your view on it!

    I have been reading your blog only for a short while, and it is much more than just a sex blog in my opinion. You always take the time to answer questions thoughtfully and honestly, which does a lot to build acceptance and link those of us who might think we are the only people in the universe who have these thoughts and feelings. This question seemed pretty personal, and again you had the generosity to answer with respect and honesty. I think for the most part our families choose what they want to know about us, the Internet obviously makes information very accessible but that is also a positive, particularly in our community. I can’t imagine too many parents or siblings being interested in our sexuality…my own mother may be an exception though, it seems she is intrigued so she can verbally disapprove!

    How does one go about asking you anything? I’m new to the site and definitely have questions but don’t how to go about it. I’m assuming to the email address you have listed but I don’t want to be presumptious.

  4. My mom and my family reads the torrid trail I blaze on the web thus they can see it as bizarre, progressive or both
