Sexuality Happens

I received some GREAT entries to my blogiversary contest, including some super duper creative ones. It’s going to take me a few days to figure out the winners, but until then, here are the CORRECT answers to the scavenger hunt.

Also, thanks again to my amazing sponsors; SexToy.com, Babeland, VibeReview, ExtremeRestraints, CrashPadSeries.com, GoodVibes.com and of course, the lovely For Your Nymphomation. Without such awesome and generous companies, there would not have been such a rocking contest.  

I’m not going to lie. I’m relieved to get some of these toys (most companies are shipping direct to the winners, but SexToy.com shipped to me first) out of my house. Do you realize how much space a box for a sex swing takes up?  If I can’t use it, the answer is TOO MUCH!

Congrats in advance to the winners, thanks to all the fabulous entries, and here are the answers.  Until next year…

-Essin’ Em

ANSWERS:

How old I am: 23 (turning 24 on December 9th – just saying…)

My real name: Shanna Katz

The names of my cats: Kinsey, Kali and Jasper (Jasper is a newbie, as he use to belong to Q and now is one of our kids.  So BOTH Kinsey/Kali and Kinsey/Kali/Jasper are correct)

The number of lettered partners (ex: Q) I have had on my blog, and list them: 8: J, K, C, L, M, F, S, Q were the main letters. However, I also had Miss P, Miss D, and Miss/Mistress S. Again, either 8 or 11 are acceptable.

Five of the companies I do review for (or have in the past): Any 5 of the following – Liberator, SexToy.com, Babeland, Vibe Review, Good Vibrations, EdenFantasys, Smitten Kitten, JimmyJane, ExtremeRestraints, RubyGlass21, Jollies, LoveHoney, Vibrator.com and Lelo.

Where my first job was in the “adult industry”: HotMoviesForHer.com (which I found as a CL posting for GayHotMovies.com,and was lucky enough they wanted me for HM4H!)

My number one porn star crush: Jiz Lee (shockingly, EVERYONE got this right. Hmm, how could that be?)

What happens everytime I get another 100 followers on Twitter: Tweet a nekkid (or often, NAKED) picture

Who created my Facebook Fan Page: The Kinky Librarian

One blogger who helped me to find/understand my Femme identity: There were many, but the main ones were Sinclair Sexsmith, Miss Avarice, Dylan (who I believe no longer blogs?) and Lady Brett Ashley.

How many tattoos I have, and what they are (bonus if you know their meanings): 5 tattoos
*Crescent moon with 4 stars and a tear drop. The tear drop is for sadness. Moon is the present and the stars are my future.
* Flying Pig with a banner below it that reads “Aba” which is Hebrew for father. It’s a memorial for my father. Pigs were my dad’s favorite animal.
*“Not all those who wander are lost.” A quote from LoTR. I’m a nerd, and a bibliophile, and it says a lot about the multiple directions of my life.
*Two people embracing. One is more femme in appearance, which represents (sometimes) me.   The other is sex and genderless. Two people embracing – is it love, or sex, or just comfort? It is my embrace of sexuality, of love regardless of gender.
*Femme spiral  - my (and several other Femmes’) reaction to the blue butch/dyke star.  To show I am a Femme, to help me be recognized, etc.

The other country have I lived in: Germany (Lueneburg, to be specific)

Number of states I’ve presented/taught in (bonus for which ones): Six states –  New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Colorado, California, and Washington. Also, Washington DC, which kind of counts.

Phew. I think that’s it. If I missed you, comment and I’ll update.

Three issues I feel VERY strongly on: Some main ones are – Queer visibility and equality, fat acceptance, ability rights/accessibility, sexual assault discussion and prevention, animal rights, trans access to care and inclusivity, comprehensive sexuality education, body-safe sex toys/lubes/etc.
