The Lorelei

Eight cervical barriers, some with cases

Adolph’s fetish facilities expand: Adolph decided to branch out and enter the under-served market for female water fetishists. He has opened a woman’s intimate aqua-club, it’s called The Lorelei, and he has a full service vaginal devices boutique in it to fit gas-guards, among other things. He negotiated with our woman’s clinic that takes care of a lot of the entertainers and escorts in town to run the satellite cervical barrier fitting salon at The Lorelei which shares the same large building with Splash. The barrier fitting salon will pull some traffic away from the main clinic location, but boost the bottom line since the cost for fittings is about 15% higher than at the main location because of the convenience factor of being able to get fitted on site just before entering a club encounter pool. The clinic gets 80% of the profit since no other fetish club has a woman’s facility much less gas-guard fitting capability and because vaginal rubber is catching on, among the very wealthy as the need for gas guards becomes more apparent, he feels The Lorelei will be ahead of the curve. Female guests at the Lorelei can bring a male companion or chose from among a stable of male escorts picked for their skills and stamina.

The photo at the top of this entry shows eight cervical barriers. The three in the top row are, from left to right: the Ortho All-Flex, the Milex wide seal diaphragm and the FemCap. The three in the middle row are: Lea’s Shield, the Prentif cavity rim cervical cap (that looks like a thimble) and the Ortho Coil spring rim diaphragm. The two devices in the bottom row are: the Semina diaphragm and the Oves cervical cap. Of these eight the Lea’s shield, Prentif, and Oves caps and the Ortho coil spring rim are no longer being made. Prentif and Oves caps can occasionally be found on the internet though most sizes are nearly impossible to get. A coil spring rim is made by Milex. The Semina – the one with the red rim and transparent dome – is made in Brazil and not generally available in the U.S.

For want of a gas-guard: The local fetish community had the need for gas-guards tragically brought home the last week I was away when a highly respected community leader from a large eastern U.S city had an embolism during a dive-sex encounter. She was in her mid 40s in good health and was an experienced diver and rubber fetishist. She was taken to a private hospital and put on a respirator, but her brain activity had flat-lined. Her husband flew out and had her medical power of attorney in which she requested no heroic measures be taken should she be declared brain dead and he had her taken off the respirator and sat with her for the 3 hours it took her to stop breathing. Fortunately the accident happened in a private home and not at The Lorelei. Adolph knows the husband and offered him consolation at Splash for which Adolph says, he was grateful. The couple had an open marriage and each had an active sex life so he wasn’t upset about her having sex with another man, but he was furious about her not wearing her gas-guard which he loved her to wear and which she consistently went without whenever she had SCUBA-sex with other men. She left 12 y/o twin boys.

The Lorelei uses the same utilities and the same upper management as Splash though there are only four encounter pools rather than the nine at Splash, but the building that was once a massive cold storage warehouse and is built like a bunker with most of it underground to reduce HVAC costs, and has plenty of room for them both to expand. Managing The Lorelei itself is Abigail (Abi) who returning readers will remember from earlier posts. She is a gorgeous 25 y/o German with auburn hair who is strong, smart and an expert swimmer/diver who had been a soloist with the Frankfurt Ballet. She was hired to teach an underwater bondage course at Splash early last year then accepted the position as Pool-Assistant (and Lorelei in residence) to Adolph in June 2010.

Adolph expects The Lorelei to operate at a loss for at least the first year to eighteen months as membership builds but he felt the need to have a facility where women can enjoy their most extreme fetishes while being in a safe location. The Lorelei also provides him an opportunity to possibly take possession of some additional female bodies under certain circumstances, so his motives are not entirely altruistic. He has put out the word among wealthy friends on the West Coast who are or know adventuresome women who would be interested in a confidential facility like The Lorelei either as a destination, at a convention or while vacationing in the area.

What’s a nice girl like you - : I have an anonymous admirer, a returning reader who comments - occasionally in considerable detail - on blog entries that interest or horrify him.

I recently got a comment from him along the lines of the old query: “What’s a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?” I’ve mentioned my reasons for being in Vegas and living the life I do a number of times in postings on this blog, but I’ll share with my readers my answers, in case anyone else wonders or cares.

>why go from classic training to the nasty underworld of Vegas?

“Because here I can have the best of both worlds! I run my own company, get to dance what and when I want and can pass on my skills to like minded young women and get all the fetish sex I need at the risk levels I crave.”

>why underwater is it supposed to heighten the brain rush or something, or just the danger of not coming up?

“Why not? It feeds a number of my fetishes simultaneously. My need for: rubber encasement, gasmask, being kept alive by mechanical means, breathing compressed gas and sex in a hostile environment as well as the possibility of becoming pregnant from a cervical barrier failure while being inseminated.

Combining those cravings in a single sexual encounter is for me unbelievably erotic. And that is especially true when my libido peaks as it has this week. That’s because today I’m CD12 and fertile – I should ovulate two days from now, this coming Thursday. The chance of an unplanned pregnancy is very slight, but there is enough risk to cause a frissson of concern to curl my toes and make me wet with desire for a man to plant his seed in my belly.”

E for effort: In response to my entry ‘Fertile women and their scent’ posted on 02-22-2011 he sent me an exceptionally long comment, even for him. In general he was complimentary, but his experience with fetish sex while erotic has been disappointing and, if I understood him correctly he finds my interest in and need for sexual intercourse while wearing latex or SCUBA gear, unrealistic, based on his experience. He wrote:

“If a fetish can be taught and learned, how come so many (men) complain that their partners (wifes, GFs SOs) have no aptitude, nor interest and don’t get it even when they agree to give it a try? Why is something which is so compelling to some so repulsive to others?”

If he was a woman he would know the answer to that question. The majority of daughters are brought up to suppress their sexuality. Even Moms who grew up in the 60s during the sexual revolution when the pill first became available usually realize the risks they took and try to shield their daughters from making the same ‘mistakes’. That early training carries over into intimate relationships when the daughters become sexually active so that vanilla sex is as wild as they dare get without feeling devalued and objectified. It is very difficult for most girls to go against their moral training that has been drilled into them by their mothers for years when their hormones kick in and they start craving men. Intense sports, cold showers, and masturbation tend to lessen the need for men, but not entirely which results in vanilla sex. Only a few adventuresome girls are attracted by the look of a feminine form encased in latex and dare to display their bodies that way.

He complained that his experience with fetish clubs was disappointing, writing:

“I started attending some SM and clubs expecting to meet females who might share my latex fetish in one form or another. Didn’t happen. These clubs were populated by fat ugly people who could care less about elegance, beauty… form motion… fetish and more about whips and so forth. YUCK. I was looking for elegant Balanchine females enclosed in rubber and there wasn’t anything in rubber at all”

Talk about unrealistic expectations and fantasies! Entry level fetish clubs are like that with members having far less than perfect bodies. Balanchine bodies are high maintenance and the few owners of that sort of bod who are into fetishwear almost always realize they can be kept by a rich man or work in an elite club where they can network to become better known and properly appreciated. I think too, that a man actually meeting a beautiful woman encased in latex while finding her erotic may often be so in awe of her that he is unable to act on his fantasies.

I’ve seen that happen to my students in latex encasement training when they take a new partner and he is so mesmerized by their beauty they need to physically seduce him to get him aroused. My shrink says that is because the men in the presence of a woman they know is well out of their league will often think they may be unworthy of such a prize or will be dismissed as inadequate and fear rejection and scorn to the degree that they can’t become aroused or will ejaculate w/o getting an erection. My correspondent goes further, writing that:

“clearly fetish(es) don’t appeal to everyone and everyone will not “get off” on fetish or the less discussed fetish sex. Sex is not discussed as much as bondage, cross dressing, chastity, S&M… My own decades of experience leads me to believe that the most powerful aspect of fetish sex is the fantasy nature of it… not so much the practice of it.”

He is quite correct in that regard, but we should be thankful that vanilla sex does not include true fetish sex and thankful for a number of reasons. First the average person can’t afford much outside the standard S&M gear of ropes, chains, nipple and labia clamps, gags and frilly undies. Latex and dive gear is costly and high maintenance with (in the case of latex) a short lifespan even for quality garments. Finally, for most people expectations are kept in check by community mores, the financial burden and the realization – on the part of the women involved – that they are the ones likely to end up injured or pregnant from fetish sex and as a result do their best to minimize their participation or try to avoid it entirely. So living a rubber fantasy in her mind or at dress-up parties is as much excitement as the average woman wants or can afford.

Fortunately, there are quite a few daughters of wealthy parents or young women of independent means for whom these economic and social barriers pose no limitation on where their adventuresome natures might take them. It is to these women that St Lucy’s is dedicated; to providing the best classical education for the mind and the most advanced intimate training possible for their bodies so they can harness their sexuality for advancement in any field of endeavor they choose while enjoying the delights of the opposite sex in relative safety.

Avoid Lea’s Shield for dive-sex


Lea’s Shield Top view


Lea’s Shield showing the 10 mm vent opening in the bowl

Lea’s shield: Lea’s shield was supposed to be a one-size fits-all cervical barrier with a one-way valve that would allow vaginal discharge to flow out while preventing semen from entering the bowl to reach the wearer’s cervix. I haven’t written about it because while the idea was marvelous the design was flawed so it was taken off the market several years ago and very few women I know and no entertainers use an LS. However, because it was made of surgical grade silicone women and their partners who had the anatomy to use it as intended (for traditional sexual intercourse at one atmosphere of pressure) and liked it still use the Shield so there are still a few in use and it can still be purchased on-line.

Problems with the Shield: One of the problems with Lea’s Shield is that there is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all cervical barrier. At best Lea’s shield is a one-size fits-most device so women with small anatomies found because of the Shields large volume it was difficult or impossible to insert. Or, for those who could insert it and wear it comfortably the valve often hurt a well endowed partner. I take an 80 mm diaphragm so I’m on the upper end of a ‘normal’ size unaroused vagina, but I tent far more than the average woman because when fully aroused and penetrated from the rear I can take an 11 inch man with almost no discomfort. However, with the Shield inserted I can only take 8 inches and the valve, even though it’s very soft, hurt my well endowed partners. So, my Lea’s Shield in its lovely teal bag has ended up as a paperweight and conversation piece on my desk at work.

The Shield and dive-sex: Why I’m writing about Lea’s Shield now is because a 26 y/o woman was brought into the ER side of the clinic just as I was leaving after my usual CD1 menstrual extraction yesterday morning. She had gone into the 20 foot deep pool of a pool bungalow wearing a Lea’s shield as a gas guard. She is a friend of the guest who had reserved the bungalow for a week and she had always before used an arcing spring diaphragm as a gas guard but had forgotten it so wore her normal surface sex protection, the Lea’s Shield into the pool. She had used Semécide, the Dive-Gel with an N9 spermicide, in the bowl of her Shield and wore a bikini and her own single hose reg and a buoyancy vest with integrated weight pockets. The security cams show that after checking her equipment on the surface she released air from her vest and began a rapid descent and at about 5 feet she started to squirm and apparently panicked. She tried to inflate her vest and drop her weights but managed to do neither and she continued to sink to the bottom doubled over and writhing in pain with her fingers inserted in her vagina. The guest, her boyfriend, was ready to start his descent and emptied his BCD and sank to her side in less than a minute then hit the fill valves on both their buoyancy compensators and made an a emergency ascent and pulled her to the shallow end and out of the pool.

Fortunately she was using her own dive gear so the casino isn’t liable for damages and having pool access she had signed a waver one section of which spelled out the gas guards a woman should use (which does not include Lea’s Shield) if she intended to have pool-sex. So I think we are in the clear as far as legalities go. With other style cervical caps; FemCap, Prentif or Oves the silicone or latex of the dome is so soft and small that the dome can collapse around or on to the cervix and there will be no (in the case of Oves) or very little squeeze in the case of Prentif or FemCap. That is often not the case with a Lea’s Shield.

The bowl void: The problem is that the dome, which the manufacturer calls the bowl, is large, 30 mm wide, to accommodate women who have given birth. That means it is too large for most women who have never been pregnant so there is a large surface pressure void in the bowl. And the bowl is very stiff which means that if the wearer descends to much depth at all and she has a large void in the bowl the surrounding water pressure will squeeze her cervix and the neck of her uterus into the bowl to fill the void and then squeeze her cervix out through the 10 mm opening between the bowl and the one-way valve that is kept shut by being compressed between the rear vaginal wall and the outer surface of the bowl. We are talking about the diameter of a small cervix being 20 to 22 mm so having that squeezed through a 10 mm hole gives you some idea that the process is unbelievably painful even though the cervix itself has few nerves in it. Having ones cervix crushed by pressure squeeze while diving the first indication is severe cramps and then a sickening searing pain. The interior of the cervix is full of blood vessels and once they are ruptured the woman bleeds freely and the hemorrhaging is difficult to stop.

The ER Gyn sedated her gave her a unit of blood and opened her vagina with a speculum, then had to cut through the thick silicone dome of the bowl with a laser knife to break the vacuum so the shield could be removed. Then a tube was inserted through her cervix to allow drainage and the cervix was injected with a med to cause the wounds to clot and her vagina was packed with gauze and she was sent to the private hospital the casino uses which specializes in reproductive tract trauma. Rebuilding a cervix is tricky and I’m guessing if she is able to carry a pregnancy to term she will never be able to give birth vaginally or she will almost certainly tear.
