Healthy Open Relationships

January 30, 2010

An article was posted by the New York Times yesterday discussing open relationships.  The article revealed that a soon to be released study showed that 50% of gay couples polled were in happy open relationships.

The negative backlash to the topic of open relationships is something that practitioners and polygamists are familiar with.  It’s an argument that will often times draw anger from those that oppose open relationships, or at best elicit responses such as “I could never do it, but to each his own.”

The following is a brief example of why open relationships work for many, my responses to the various common arguments against responsible non-monogamy,  as well as a short beginners guide on how to develop an open relationship with your partner if that is the path that you choose.

End of Year Top Toy Picks by Brandon B.

December 31, 2009

Well it’s that time of year again.  The last day of 2009.  People are joining gyms around the nation that they will visit maybe four times, nicotine patches will be ripped off of triceps and hurled into garbage bins, and somewhere someone is going to have a little too much sparkling wine and decide that they drink too much until they are invited out the next evening.

It’s been  a great year for The INQUEERY and I have all of you to thank.  There are some exciting things I have planned for next year to take my site to the next level and I hope you enjoy all of it.

Speaking of things to enjoy, I’ve had a lot of fun with a lot of toys this year.  I figured it only right to post my End of Year Top Toy Picks to celebrate my personal favorites in each category.  Enjoy, and have a safe and fun New Year!

Tattoos = Boner Fuel

November 22, 2009

This has nothing to do with sex or sex toys except that it makes me want to have sex with myself.

Tattoo progress!  My artist is Su Houston and she is rad.  She is also the babe responsible for my peacock feathers and the gnome on my ankle.  This is just the outline so don’t tilt your head.  Just thought I’d share so you can see it become the awesome tat that it’s going to be.  Plus I told her I’d pimp her out.

Tattooed boys are hot!  Go get some tats so I can masturbate to you guys!


Underwear Matters to Kasey

September 10, 2009

I admit that it looks like I spend more time out of my underwear than in it.  That shouldn’t imply that I don’t think underwear is sexy.  In fact the first time I ever masturbated was to a certain actor (who I now find embarrassing so I will leave him nameless) in a certain movie where the sex scene began with him pushing up against his co-star in a pair of cute briefs.

Nice underwear to me is like wrapping your goods up as a present.  Like a Christmas present; underwear is the shiny bow-wrapped barrier between you and a butt taco.  When I was a kid my dad used to put my presents in brown paper bags and staple them shut.  Although the gift was nice, you can imagine how I was a little less excited than I should have been to be eyeing a Charlie Brown-esque Christmas tree lined with rows of what appeared to be sacks of dog shit.

The same can be said for underwear.  What kind of gift do you want to give?

I asked my friend Kasey to write up a little blurb on skivvies.  He is a bit of an underwear fanatic and has some great articles for you to invest in.  Bonus points if you buy any of these and send me pictures!

Just kidding just kidding!

Bondage Week Wrap-Up

June 20, 2009

Well today is the last day of Bondage Week.  It’s been fun!  I hope you enjoyed it.

I wanted to write a wrap-up for the week and reiterate why it was important for me to do this event.

If you were to announce to someone that you were “into BDSM,” they would either be A) way into it or B) freaked out.  It’s the people that get “freaked out” that this was for.  Typically I have found that people are only weirded out by BDSM because they haven’t actually learned about it.  They have heard fantastical stories about people who like the shit kicked out of them and immediately write it off as bizarre.

Everyone is of course entitled to their opinion.  But for someone to use something like BDSM as a weapon to verbally attack or embarrass a person or persons, then I take issue.

Recently David Carradine was in the media after his sad death.  The things I heard in the wake were so upsetting.  People were telling me, of all people, “Wow I bet you have to deal with freaks like that all the time!

He wasn’t a freak.  And people that are into BDSM aren’t freaks.  Because BDSM isn’t freakish.

The very core of bondage is pleasure. It is about making someone else feel good, making yourself feel good, experimenting and trying new things.  It’s not about breaking people’s legs.  It’s about being happy.  That’s why it bothers me when people talk down about it.  You’re talking down about something that people use to make themselves happy when you have no idea what it even entails.

One of the reasons I started this site in the first place was to encourage people to explore their own personal sexuality in a safe, fun, uninhibited way.  I hope that some or all of the posts from Bondage Week gave you some insight into the possibilities of your sexual practices.

No matter how you choose to have sex remember to play safe and creatively, but most importantly — remember to play.
