Unleash your sexuality and dive into the human experience.
What to Say if You Don’t Want Commitment
All men want to play the field and all women want marriage and babies, right? Wrong. Assumptions are one of the ‘fun destroyers’ of dating and relationships. So if you’re a man (or a woman) and you’ve decided commitment isn’t for you–at least right now–don’t assume this is going to be a major bombshell for whoever you’re dating.

Sexy movies come out every year, but the definition of a sexy movie in a particular year evolves and fluctuates with public sentiment. In a sense, sexy movies come to define the sexual sentiment of the movie going public in any given year. 2016 was no exception with the diverse output of not only Hollywood, but foreign markets and independent cinema, as well. Of course, the definition of sexy is broad and subjective this year, as opposed to 2015 when everything was measured against the single standard of Fifty Shades of Grey. In 2016 there was something for everyone, from musicals to action. Even cartoon bread gets in on the action. The differences in opinion are no different than the divisions we face as a culture this year when it comes to sexuality, female empowerment and the art or erotic entertainment.

We often see ads featuring the Victoria’s Secret Angels and notice the most beautiful or the sexiest among them. Believe it or not, when it comes to these models, there is much more than meets the eye. Some of these Angels feature personality traits that enhance and go much deeper than their external beauty and these traits deserve to be shown off just as much as their outer beauty. From philanthropy to charities and scholarships, these women work hard both, on the runway, and for causes they truly care about. These women can do far more than just model, but show themselves as excellent role models to others, both young and old. Not to be taken for granted, here are the most empowering Victoria’s Secret Angels.
Life in a Victorian Brothel
Christmas 1878 was a day of snow and rain, the landscape of Victorian south London darkened by heavy skies. Adeline Tanner, an attractive eighteen-year-old, left the house in Dulwich where she worked as a maid, and walked to Tulse Hill station on her way to visit her sister. The walk to the station was enough to soak her "waterproof" but fortunately Victorian railway waiting rooms had coal fires even on Christmas Day. As Adeline stood in the warmth, drying her cloak, a well-dressed man approached her and told her that the back of her waterproof was scorching. She thanked him, and they chatted politely until her train drew in.

She is the original blaxploitation queen. Part of a small group of women who defined the genre. They set the tone for much of African American urban cinema in the 1960 and 1970s. Pam Grier has been steaming up the screen for decades. After blaxploitation went out of style and urban African American culture moved beyond stereotypes, she starred in defining roles like Steven Seagal's 1988 classic action film Above the Law, Quentin Tarantino's homage to blaxploitation; Jackie Brown, and then re-defined herself on Showtime's ground breaking The L word. It is hard to find groundbreaking women like Pam in the saturated world of contemporary pop icons. The juxtaposition of her blaxploitation rolls during a critical decade for women and the civil rights movement make her a career a unique example of the fundamental changes in Hollywood for women and minorities.

Emily McCayPublished 8 years ago in FilthyDating Rules of Engagement
I was once blind but now I see. Could it really be THAT simple? I talk about “a light going off” all of the time when I teach yoga. That ahhhh - now I get it feeling. And now I get it. I like rules and dating rules of engagement should be no exception. What I have refused to do, be, or become one of those women who play games. But that’s the secret if you want to get married according to All the Rules by Ellen Fein and Sherrie Schneider. They don’t say to lie or be a bitch, you can be you, but you don’t have to give so much so fast. This makes sense. But this is not the epiphany moment for me. A man says he doesn’t like games or bitchy women and this can be perfectly true, but what he fails to tell you (of course he’s not going to make it easy on you, why would he?) is that he wants the chase, the challenge, to win YOU.
