ArousedWoman Celebrates the 300th Blog Post!
Wow! Has it really been 300 blog posts — already?! I still can’t believe I just passed 3 years of doing ArousedWoman.

OpEd: Prudes Shocked as Madonna Dates Younger Man/Opera Singer Jonas Kaufmann
Copyright 2014 by Trish Causey. Madonna is shamed in the media as both an “older woman” and as a sexual person. I saw a short “article” (i.e., post on a gossip rag) about Madonna possibly dating a famous opera tenor. It mentioned that she has had several “toyboy” relationships since separating from her husband, and […]
DailyOJ 06-23-14: Getting Back Into My Body
I can’t believe how long it has been since I wrote my last true DailyOJ post. It seems like a lifetime ago that I was on my regular meditation and awakening practice, but I felt I needed a break due to everything that was going on. So on 02-03-14, I took a break from writing […]
OpEd: Summer Solstice – 18 Years a Witch
Today is June 21, 2014, and it marks 18 years since I self-initiated as a witch. The ritual took place in my backyard with a number of fellow witch-friends in attendance, along with too many mosquitoes and June Bugs to count. I had been on this road to witchdom for a couple of years, having […]

OpEd: Oh, to Belly Dance Naked at Burning Man….
I have long had an interest in Burning Man, the bohemian, heathen, socialist event that happens in Nevada every year. According to the website, Burning Man is an art event at which participants “dedicate themselves to the spirit of community, art, self-expression, and self-reliance. They depart one week later, leaving no trace.” As more and […]

OpEd: Where Is the Body-Positive Body Image for Women in Media?
While I am a sex-positive & pro-sex movement activist, I think it’s sad that the majority of the body-positive photos of women I see are in and amongst the BDSM and sexualized violence porn of Tumblr. There are many amateur sites that feature full-figured women, but the amateur photo-snaps are not of the technical quality […]

OpEd: Sex and Pain
If you judged the average person’s sex habits by what you see online, you’d think everyone is into pain, BDSM, and hog-tying their sex partners into elaborate rope configurations. A while back, I was “roped” into a brief Twitter war with a guy who was trying to justify putting duct tape over a woman’s mouth […]
