		<title>Skinny dipping together</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

I quickly shed my clothes on the sun-baked rocks and slid bare-bodied under a mini water fall at Sculptured Falls along the Barton Springs Greenbelt.  Hiking with new friends from Austin&#8217;s Hill Country Nudist Club (www.hillcountrynudists.com) gave me the courage to swim the way I wanted to.
It was my first time to take off my [...]]]></description>

		<title>Going Bare Foot All Over:  My First Nude Cruise</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

On my first morning sailing to Hawaii on a clothing-optional cruise, I couldn&#8217;t decide what to wear.  It was a cloudy, breezy day on the Pacific and too cold for me to be naked. I worried, &#8220;Would wearing a bathrobe or sarong to breakfast make me stick out?&#8221;  Being my first nude cruise, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Anal Interview Gets to the Bottom of Things</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

I just saw a play on Broadway about the first electric vibrators doctors used to relieve women of ‘hysteria’ (built up pressure in the womb) in the late 1800‘s.  Now the Victorian doctors could do in minutes what used to take an hour&#8211;or eternity for many clueless husbands of the era.
 
Interestingly, the play included [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Cathedral of the Carnal and Sacred</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

Like any fine art of living, sensuality is a learned and practiced art.  Good lovers are not born, they are made.  Accomplished sensuous virtuosos fine tune their play on the instrument of the human body. If you want finesse, find good teachers, study, and practice.
 
As a teacher of erotic touch, I’m always amazed in [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Female Orgasmic Fountain</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

Who would have imagined a shy girl from the midwest sponsoring a workshop on  female g-spot ejaculation?  Growing up in the 60‘s I was just discovering that women could have orgasms (forget what kind). The first time I ever heard the word clitoris I was in college (at which time I checked out ‘down there’ [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Bonobo Moment</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

I just got to spend time watching our closest ape relatives, the Bonobos, at the San Diego Zoo.  The youngsters sat in warm sand, legs spread open, scooping it up and pouring it over their genitals, getting up and doing it again&#8211;all with an erection of course! 
It was hard to tell which gender was [...]]]></description>

		<title>Slowing Down to the Speed of Love</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

At the end of a couples intimacy or partner massage class I&#8217;m always amazed at how my body feels.  I&#8217;m touched by what my students say in the closing circle, &#8220;I&#8217;m happy to be alive, I&#8217;m aware of being love, I feel peace through my whole body.&#8221;  I notice how the faces have softened in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Uncle Bob is Dressing like a Lady</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

I just returned from visiting my Uncle Bob who at age 85 has started dressing as a “Lady.” My Aunt Eleanor died about a year and a half ago and he says, “I’ve always lived as others expected of me. I only have a small time left, and now I want to be me.” He [...]]]></description>
