  • A busy week coming to an end, thank Gods. Heading to dinner now and I’ll put up a blog post later tonight. Patience, my minions!

  • Safe

    Sunday, September 19, 2010 I haven’t been able to quickly find the survey I read a few years ago, but I’m going to cite it now and come back and amend this entry with a link later… A large, popular sex survey was done by some Canadian magazine a few years ago, and it had…

  • Sex

    Thursday, September 16, 2010 You may disagree with me, but I feel strongly that masturbation is sex. It seems ludicrous to me that anyone would think otherwise, but I know we like to parse words and find ways of telling our stories so that we can continue to do what we want to do. When…

  • Roots (part 3)

    The last course of this blog binge is below. I hope you’re as relieved as I am… You can read part 1 here and part 2 is here. Tuesday, September 14, 2010 In 1990, I moved to Chicago at age 32. I was still a total slut but I had shortened my playlist by then…

  • What is the most important thing you have gotten out of your involvement in and participation at JO clubs?

    Wow. You go right for the meat, don’t you? I had to think about this. “Importance” isn’t an easy thing to measure since it’s relative to so many factors… I think the most important thing I’ve gotten out of my involvement and participation in JO clubs is a strong sense of sexual self-possession. What I…

  • Roots (Part 2)

    Read part 1 here. Monday, September 13, 2010 When I was 14, I toured with a swing choir to some central Illinois town to perform with some other youth chorale, and we were farmed out for housing. I shared a bed with some kid who kept going on and on about Mel Grant, one of…

  • What’s your favorite lube for bating?

    At the club, we provide the iconic lube of the jacker, Albolene. It’s an oil-based, long-lasting lube for masturbation, or for barebacking your fluid-bonded, monogamous partner. When I bate at home, I use Stroke 29 or Gun Oil, or no lube at all depending on my mood. Stroke 29 is probably my favorite. You can…

  • Roots (Part 1)

    This entry got a little out of control and ended up being way too long for one installment, so I’m going to break it up and give it to you piecemeal. Tune in tomorrow for the next exciting episode! Sunday, September 12, 2010 I don’t remember when I started fantasizing about jacking off with other…

  • Class

    Saturday, September 11, 2010 NOTE: This is a repost of yesterday’s entry. I learned that entering text in the tumblr iPhone app results in the wrong format… I also wanted to fix, edit, add links, etc… I just wrapped up my third annual teaching session at Gay City University. “JACKS: Exploring the JO Club Phenomenon”…

  • Realms

    Friday, September 10, 2010 I’m not the only person who inhabits multiple realms. The design of our institutions encourages us to divide ourselves into different personas that are appropriate to the moment and the place and company. I have a hard time discussing my jack-off club with anyone at my corporate workplace, and I resist…
