Tantra: Divine Union of Man & Woman
The meaning of the word Tantra, derived from Sanskrit, is "to weave". In the tantric lifestyle, we weave together all aspects of our lives into one harmonious whole. Work becomes a meditation, making love becomes our spiritual practice, the lover and the beloved melt into one.

Sexism in advertising
The incidence of sexism in advertising has gradually increased over the years amongst African women or non-white people. Previously, this had not been an uncommon feature in the West among the fairer white sex. Today, African female models are more frequently sexually depicted in brand advertisements than are males. There is a growing interest from foreign owned companies advertising their brands using black African models clad in suggestive attire. Female models are depicted as suggestively dressed while males are unlikely to be portrayed likewise. Women have increasingly become objects of display. The new enlightenment worldview is that women are totally defined by their bodies in a way they had not been in the past. In advertisements, body orientations of women as they sit or stand are sexualized. Their projections are suggestive and alluring. For example, they are made to pose in ways that seem strangely erotic and emphasizing the areas of their bodies (breasts, hips, thighs, legs) that they were culturally socialized to conceal, be afraid of and ashamed of. In Africa, certain body parts, whether female or male, are ordered by cultural norms to remain subdued and covered. The gendering of bodies is thus a social process. The importation and adoption of western values in our culture have created a natural experiment in social change. Of interest in this write up is not the changing nature of sexuality in advertising (another area of interest to researchers) but the apparent politics of gender stereotyping and sexual objectification of women in advertising media. The media reiterate the cultural image of women as ornamental objects who must attract men to be valuable. The media insinuate some of these messages into our consciousness at every turn. Not only do media induce us to think we should measure up to artificial standards, but they encourage us to see normal bodies and bodily functions as pathologies.

Facebook Groups I Have Known and Loved
If you can slap a label on something, Facebook likely has at least fifteen groups dedicated to some aspect of it. All have their peccadillos, and generally a somewhat creepy obsession with rules and order. The number one rule of most Facebook groups seems to be "no self promotion" followed closely by "no pornography." Below I visit some of the lesser known Facebook groups I have encountered in my travels through the Facebook-grouposphere which I visit often searching desperately for friendship, love, and/or kindred spirits who share my deep love of post apocalyptic moulds. To date, I am zero for three but I will never give up hope.

Eleven Examples of Musical Naughtiness
Introduction I was listening to a Supercharge album “Local Lads Make Good” and the final song “She Moved The Dishes First” came on. It is anything but subtle but I still find it very funny, although many people may find it a bit too naughty for them.

Sex vs. Books
I have a room at the front of my place with a lot of natural light being reflected off of the windows of my neighbours' homes across the road. Never really considered how I had to watch out for my own privacy after five years living so closely in my own darkness and with no real concept of the word. It is a type of comfort that I never knew I missed.

Why is it so difficult to find good sex?
Netflix's new miniseries The Principles of Pleasure, which premiered on Tuesday, is a pleasant and lively pastel-colored examination of women's sexuality, complete with vulva diagrams and sex toy demonstrations, as well as explanations of menstrual cycles and masturbation. However, there is one issue that is a little more difficult to answer: why do we still have to do this? Why is it so difficult for women who sleep with men to get sexual pleasure while avoiding suffering and harm, despite living in a society that is more sexually open than ever before?

You Filthy Beats
A warning, do not read this if you are easily offended by sexual references. These may be your favourite bands and you may be surprised to find out what their name actually refers to. Although I will submit this to the Vocal Beat Community, it could possibly go in Filthy too. Although hopefully, most people will find this amusing on an almost schoolboy/schoolgirl level.

Pornography in the name of Valentine's Day is common
For the last few decades, Valentine's Day has been celebrated on 14th February every year in most of the countries of the world. The series is named after a Christian monk named St. Valentine. But many church monks have condemned such superstitious Memorial Days because it promotes sexual misconduct and obscenity in the name of the day. There are many Valentine's Day traditions and stories. Many stories are famous but none of them are authentic. In fact, in the name of Valentine's Day, the United States, Europe and Eastern countries try to keep alive and remember an ancient tradition of 1700 years ago. In many cases, it is not possible to say which event is closer to reality. By the way, people who are celebrating Valentine's Day are not aware of its reality and do not understand its importance. Tradition has it that the Roman emperor Claudius believed that since marriage would reduce the power, body, intellect and strength of the dead to make decisions, his soldiers would not have to marry. But St. Valentine married thousands of soldiers in defiance of this order. In return, the king sentenced him to death on February 14. A similar story is told that the Roman emperor Claudius was having difficulty preparing his army for battle. When he tried to find out the reason, he found out that married people are not ready to leave their families and homes and go to war. Angered by this, the king banned marriage. But St. Valentine, in defiance of this royal decree, not only married many people but also himself. In return, the king sentenced him to death. People were impressed by this sentence and every year St. Valentine's Day was celebrated as a memorial of love. It was later dubbed the Love Celebration. For the past few years, young people from different countries have been making crude imitations of the same Western civilization. The fact is that love is the name of feeling. The union of two bodies is not love. Our country is full of examples for Love Celebration, Majnoon Farhad, Qais and above all, the great symbol of love for the whole world is the Taj Mahal.

One Ring Four Kings
Written by Knightshade Leone One windy night on the southside of Chicago, on the not so nice part of town I stumbled into a dive bar. I grew up in the area and then got out as fast as I could. I just came back to town for an old friends wedding, just for the weekend. Me and my old pal spent all day reminiscing and boozing it up just like when we were kids when we thought the streets and the night belonged to us. The more we drank the more we were convinced that Michael Jordan, Barack Obama and me and my buddy were the best things that Chi-town ever shit out. We thought surviving the days of wild made us something special and maybe it did. But, as parties were never meant to last, his wet blanket of a future wife decided that we had both drank past the point of decency and that I should be on my way seeing as though her wedding was the next Day. I don’t know, maybe it was the southside in me or maybe I just hadn’t seen enough of my old stomping grounds so I found some place to pop that nights cherry, if you know what I mean. It was Saturday night and things were just getting started.
