It’s Panda, Miss Dementia If You’re Nasty

I am still slacking on taking any new, inspired pics, so here’s one from a set I took months ago. I love these panties because 1) they’re PURPLE! and 2) they have super cute ruffles. Hope you like my ruffle-adorned ass!

As always, make sure you head over to Osbasso’s blog to see the other Half-Nekkid goodness! #HHNT!

A post was written recently by Britni, an opinionated sex blogger who seems to have a lot of support (though I’m sure the vast majority of you who read this know who she is), about judging people. The blog post appears to be written in response to a post on Eden Cafe about Cheating.

Britni writes some very good things (mostly about sex & relationship choices) about not judging people because you never know how you’d handle it if you were in their shoes. A very well written post and I agree with her points, except for one thing:

It’s hypocritical. Why, you ask? Well, the same girl who is writing about not judging people does exactly that: judges people. HARSHLY sometimes. I follow her on Facebook and Twitter and I have seen many a judgmental thing pass through her feed. As of the time I’m writing this, I’m no longer able to see her past Facebook posts (maybe as a result of the comment I left on her blog post?), so I cannot give specific examples other than these two that I remember explicitly:

1) In response to the Focus on the Family video with Tim Tebow’s parents talking about their choice to NOT have an abortion, she said this: “Tim Tebow’s parents = crazypants.” When I posted a comment asking why the Tebow’s were “crazypants,” Britni did not give me an answer, but another follower of hers did: “Because they’re Christians, silly.”

2) She posted a link to an article called “Why Liberals Are More Intelligent Than Conservatives” and commented: “I just like the title.”

Now, it appears to me that Britni is against judging people, but only when those people’s views match up with her own, only when they are speaking out about things that she agrees on. Shouldn’t “not judging people” apply to religion and political affiliation as well as sexual orientation and relationship decisions?

Now, all that being said, Britni does point out that it’s easy to judge people, after all, we’re only human. And this is certainly true. It’s natural to judge someone when our moral compass differs from theirs. However, there is a HUGE difference between saying, “You’re ok with abortion? Well, I’m vehemently against it, but you’re entitled to your opinion” and calling someone names, “You’re ok with abortion and you speak out for pro-choice? You’re crazypants.”

Even if we judge others for doing things we don’t agree with or having opinions we don’t agree with, we need to respect their right to have their own opinion. Offer your opinion, start a healthy debate, but DO NOT “hate on” people that you don’t know just because they choose to speak out about something they believe in and then get upset about people judging you without knowing you.

Britni ends her post with this: “It’s not our place to judge other people; we can disagree all we want, but judgment is best excluded. Or at the very least, kept to ourselves.” Great advice. Make sure you follow it.

I wrote a “review” last month of Adam & Eve’s Sexy Cherries Duotone Ball in which I stated that my body had rejected this toy. I got bad cramps after inserting it and wearing it for about 15 minutes (I tried two different times) and was unable to wear it for any longer.

My contact over at Adam & Eve was nice enough to express her regret that I had been caused pain and offered to send me regular Ben Wa Balls to see if they would work any better. I happily accepted, thinking that the molded form of the Duotone balls was the reason for the bad reaction with my body and that regular Ben Wa Balls wouldn’t have the same effect.

I was very happy when I opened up my package from Adam & Eve and I saw the Blue Blossom Ben Wa Balls. The little black velvet storage case (with a bow!) was so adorable and the balls themselves were beautifully crafted with gorgeous blue flowers inside of the clear, glass balls.

The balls themselves are small, about half and inch in diameter (sorry, I can’t find my ruler, so I’m totally guesstimating, and I’m horrible at estimating measurements so I’m probably COMPLETELY off).

There were no instructions included in the packaging of the balls and I was nervous about how I’d be able to get them out, so I had to do a little Google search to set my mind at ease. After the internets assured me that I’d be able to retrieve the balls and that they wouldn’t get lost in me, I popped the small, smooth balls in.

And…. *drumroll please*

5 minutes later, I started getting the cramps again, accompanied by a severe headache a few minutes later. I attempted to remove them and the first ball popped out easily, but the second took a while to work out of me.

I have no idea why my body is ok with dildos and vibrators but totally freaks out about Ben Wa Balls and I HATE IT for that, but, unfortunately, that means I won’t be trying any others in the future. *sigh*

Just as with the Duotone Balls, I won’t assign a Happy Bamboo Rating to this product since I wasn’t able to review it properly, but at $19.95, these Ben Wa Balls would make a great, artistic addition to the toy collections of those women who, unlike me, don’t have bodies that reject them.

Disclaimer: I have a material connection and receive products, as in-kind payments, from Adam & Eve for review.

I believe in God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord and Savior.

I do not believe that the Bible as we have it now is infallible. I believe that it started out as God’s Word, but throughout the years, throughout the revisions and translations and the politics of the church, it has become distorted into “what man wants God’s Word to be.”

I believe the greatest lesson to take from the Bible is The Golden Rule: “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” This also ties into “Love Your Neighbor As Yourself.” I believe that too many Christians forget this and take it upon themselves to judge those around them instead of loving them unconditionally.

I believe, as I just said, that the church is full of politics and hypocritical and judgemental people, which turn a lot of people away from any sort of religion. This makes me sad.

I do not believe that you have to attend church in order to commune and have a relationship with God. I do not believe that there needs to be any third party in the middle of your communication with God.

I believe that God made he human body a beautiful thing. I do not believe that we are supposed to feel shameful of our bodies, shameful of being naked, otherwise Adam and Eve would not have been created as naked beings.

I believe that sex and sensuality are amazing, natural things. I believe that if God had made sex strictly for procreation, He wouldn’t have made it so fun!

I do not feel ashamed about the erotic words I write, I do not feel ashamed of the pictures I post. The only reason I keep my name off of these things is because I know it could be an issue if future employers ever find it. I do not believe that employers should have the right to discriminate on those who express their natural, God-given sensual sides. I live my life in a manner that not only makes me proud but I believe pleases God as well and I do not believe that anyone should judge me based on the fact that I like to take artistic, nude pictures and write sexy words.  Unfortunately, I’ve heard of many cases where this exact thing happened.

These are some of the things I believe and whether you agree with me or not, I love you unconditionally. Until you piss me off, that is. ;-p

Since I’ve been battling strep throat, bronchitis and various colds lately, I’ve spent a lot of time in my warm, comfy robe:

Hope you enjoyed a little peek into my not-feeling-so-hot-lately world. If you want to see more #HNT hotness, make sure you glide over to Osbasso’s blog. Happy Half-Nekkid Thursday!

Who’s going to be the first to use this clean canvas?

Yes, I cheated and used one more V-Day picture. I guess that makes me even more deserving of a sound spanking, doesn’t it?  ;-)

Make sure you check out the other #HNT hotness over at Osbasso’s blog.

One last shot from Valentine’s Day, and I promise I’ll get new material for next week (unless I’m still sick or just lazy)! Enjoy!
