Not to get all Political, Except for all the Politicals.


I can not stand Rick Santorum.  The reasons for this are many (like, unending) and considering the fact that i'm from Pennsylvania, i've never voted for him.  I'm glad Pennsylvanians declined to re-elect him. Except for the fact that he's now started hovering over the political pundancy like an eleven year old hovers over a table and grossly masturbates to the first found issue of  National Geographic.

I'm a new voter.  I'm also a single issue voter.  One of my debit cards gives pennies to Susan G. Koman for the Cure, the other gives pennies for every transaction to Human Rights Campaign.  What do these two organizations have in common? They help people.  I'm into helping people. Maybe not by raising thousands of dollars (although i've managed to do a bit of fundraising in my day) and not by calling senators or sending them angry emails (done that as well, i'll never get those hours back spent on the phone or the money in postage but i have to assume its for the greater good).

My single issue voting is for sexual freedom which encompasses women's rights.  I don't want the government in my vagina or my bedroom or in my dungeons or in my pornography.  Almost all of the GOP candidates want to shrink government down so much that they can actually get inside my vagina.  Does this sound appealing to you? Here's a hint.  Religious fundamentalists ala Michelle Bachman, Sara Palin, Rick Santorum and the rest of their ilk (yes i know at least two of those are not in the race for the GOP presidential vote) care about removing women's full reproductive rights.  They fume at the fact that women can have consensual sex without any biological consequences. If pregnancy was a risk of any sexual encounter? They'd cheer. They were ecstatic about the HPV strains that were linked to cervical cancer.  Women can get cancer from sex? YIPEE!  They're against the HPV vaccine, a vaccine that saves lives because now women can be sexually promiscuous! Religious fundamentalists would, can and do vote to let women die because of their sexual choices.

These people aren't here to help anything. They're here to set women's rights back as far as they can push them. They also hate gay people. And non-monogamous people.  And anyone who isn't straight (because there's more open sexualities than just straight and gay). 

Say no to the crazy people, please.  And for those of you not in the United States, my apologies for the political ranting, but this stuff is important to me.  If my rights to have the kind of sexual relationships i want are taken away, what is the point of this blog? What is the point for me to share my knowledge and opinion on all this fun shit if it's against the law?

Oh, and here, have another article detailing more reasons why Rick Santorum's last name is something you should never google.

I have returned!

Quick post just to update everyone that I am back from the Godless Gathering PA.0. I survived and had an incredible time.  Met some fantastic people that I'm sad I only get to see once or twice a year.  It was pretty successful. The video footage will be uploaded later.  It will be uploaded to my original youTube channel, and then mirrored at the EroticWetAtomic youTube channel. Also, I have a twitter that I might annoyingly update sometimes; #eroticwetatomic. Just editing the post to announce that the video footage has been uploaded to YouTube under EroticWetAtomic (this attached channel) and FineLineFalling, my regular "G" rated channel.

A Note on the Importance of Communication in Relationships

As someone in a poly relationship, i hear all the time about how important communication and honesty is. It's beaten into our heads over and over again. "Problem? Talk about it." Sure, it makes sense, it's logical, it's what people should do. So then, why do people have such a hard time being honest? I'm going to say this very plainly. The truth is always better than a lie. As far as i'm concerned anyway. Just be honest, especially with your friends. This isn't always about romantic relationships, poly or otherwise. Friendships, play partnerships, they're all types of relationships. Don't want to hang out? Awesome. Say so. Don't make excuses. I get that people are busy, or have things to do, or are feeling not too social that day. Don't want to fuck? Awesome. Say so. Don't leave me wondering if i'm some sort of sexual predator because you say that you want to get intimate and because I trust you, I believe y...

KateHarding.net's "Guest Blogger Starling: Schrödinger’s Rapist: or a guy’s guide to approaching strange women without being maced"

I found this article some months ago and was recently reintroduced to it. My last entry had to do with women related things, let's focus on what goes on inside the brains of us very lovey ladies and woman-identified peoples.  The full original article can be found here on KateHarding.net and I recommend every single person that comes to my blog go over there and read it (or read excerpts here). Gentlemen. Thank you for reading. Let me start out by assuring you that I understand you are a good sort of person. You are kind to children and animals. You respect the elderly. You donate to charity. You tell jokes without laughing at your own punchlines. You respect women. You like women. In fact, you would really like to have a mutually respectful and loving sexual relationship with a woman. Unfortunately, you don’t yet know that woman—she isn’t working with you, nor have you been introduced through mutual friends or drawn to the same activities. So you must look fur...
