Comment 08-06-12: ‘Aroused Woman’ vs. ’50 Shades of Grey’

Here in my corner of the women’s sexuality universe, I have dabbled in writing erotica on the side of all that I do here on the blog posts (and my day job as a freelance writer, penning blog posts, cover stories, and featured articles about the Broadway theatre scene).

I started a couple of chapters for my Confessions of an Aroused Woman, a book of erotic stories based in my own life and my erotic awakening.  With the political issues of women making headlines, I started my main site: ArousedWoman, and then this blog.

I never meant to write down my personal experiences in such an open forum as this — much less talk about vaginas and clits every day on Twitter.  But I’m very glad I did… and do.  Writing up own experiences and feelings in these real blog posts has been a great journey to orgasmic self-empowerment.

And then this other little book was published called 50 Shades of Grey.  I hear it’s about S&M or BDSM, or something.  Sorry, I won’t be reading it… and apparently, I don’t need to… After reading my tongue-in-cheek post, “OpEd: Fucking Cherokee Men (and Other People of Color),” a reader left a great comment on the blog post concerning my blog. 🙂
