Ok, everyone… what’s your record for being “master of you domain?” Mine is 11 days, by the end of which, I could barely walk, literally. It hurt like hell. That stuff has to get out! I’ll never try that again. Since then, I can’t go without, more than about 4 days.

Am I really the first with this quote?

“Hey, don’t knock masturbation. It’s sex with someone I love.”

– Woody Allen, “Annie Hall”

Looking forward to a long weekend without a date…

Pepper, that’s very unfortunate, but quite understandable. There are lots of books and websites that contain very good advice and instructions for women who want to masturbate but haven’t been able to work it out themselves. I understand that an expert in this field is Betty Dodson: her website, [http://www.bettydodson.com](http://www.bettydodson.com), also plugs her book _Sex for One._ Have fun!
