Vamp extensions, ballet-sex, Valentines Day

Alexandra Ferri’s feet in customized Freed Classic pointes

The photo by Fabrizio Ferri: Ballerina Alessandra Ferri stretching and warming up for a performance. You can easily see the vamp extensions sewn into the throat on her Freed Classics. The extensions cover the lower part of her insteps allowing her to work safely far over the blocks w/o the danger of her toes ‘overflowing’ the vamps of her shoes. She is particularly known for doing that when dancing the title role in Manon.

Vamp extensions: Pointes made with traditional materials – hessian, leather, satin, cardboard and paste - worn for ballet-sex by women just learning about and unfamiliar with the lack of muscle control experienced during orgasm while en pointe (ballet-sex) should sew vamp extensions into their shoes.

During a major orgasm a girl’s bones feel as though they have turned to jelly and the only way she can remain en pointe is by locking her knees and keeping her feet pointed at which time she may well balance well over the front of the blocks on the top edge of the platform where she is more likely to overflow the vamp even if her shoes are a good fit. Most women with strong feet and a few months experience having frequent orgasms during ballet-sex learn to retain some control during strong orgasms so they will be able to remain fairly centered over the blocks. Even so, for younger escort/dancers and trainees vamp extensions are a recommended safety feature.

Women wearing Gaynor Minden hard shanked shoes for ballet-sex, even those who have high arches, like me, or who are tall, should not need vamp extensions as the hard shank or custom double hard shanks in a correctly fitted shoe should prevent the wearer going too far over the block.

Tanaquil offers me a job: My good friend Tanaquil who is based in Munich and runs an elite Escort service serving Western Europe has asked for my help. The ballet teacher who was doing the pelvic training for Escorts in her UK school in London was killed in a skiing accident last week in France and she asked if I was interested in taking her place.

Since I was still looking for something rewarding to do I accepted. Being able to train young women to experience the most toe curling sensations from their hard sculpted bodies while preparing themselves to be exquisite mistresses or marriage partners for adventuresome men is immensely rewarding for me.

As a Fetish Escort trainer: I will screen the girls for entry into the program so I can ensure I have young women with the looks, talent, and initiative and clean STI histories needed to be an elite level fetish escort. Tanaquil recruits from the colleges and universities in the London metropolitan area and the women must have strong ballet backgrounds as well as being good students academically. I can use the vacant ballet studio above the dance costume and shoe shop in the building owned by the Blackthorn Trust. That will save Tanaquil from having to find new premises as the lease on her present studio is up in April and the rent increase in the new lease is exorbitant.

I will take them for fittings of pointe shoes made of traditional materials aa well as being fitted with Gaynor Minden pointes. In addition I will take them to have stringless GyneFix frameless copper bead IUDs implanted and to be fitted for contraceptive diaphragms: the latex Reflexions, silicone Milex and the single size Caya arcing diaphragm – which fits women who take traditional diaphragm sizes from 65mm-80mm) and which requires a pronounced/deep post-pubic vault. The candidates are also fitted with sports plugs and menstrual cups. A fetish escort candidate must have regular menstrual cycles and periods that are not painful or that can be easily managed with 800 mg of Ibuprofen since sex during menstruation is a service offering of a fetish escort. 

The current escort trainee class is six women with six straight males with good sexual stamina needed for ballet-sex and two substitutes all drawn from local ballet companies as partners for classes needing dance or sexual partners. Tanaquil said the men have been a problem as they keep dropping out as ballet partners from injuries or performance schedule conflicts although the sex for them is marvelous. So new men are having to be continuously screened and introduced into the program, but not as often as the girls whose classes last about eight weeks. I screen the men as well so after the STI tests to ensure they are safe I’ll take each one to assess his sexual technique and coach him to hone his skills, a not unpleasant aspect of introducing new men to the program. Tanaquil assures me keeping enough screened men available is how I will get to know many of the rising young male ballet dancers in southern England.

Surprisingly there is no shortage of well qualified female applicants for fetish escort training. Candidates must be in the top third of their class academically; eighteen years old or older so there will be no problems associated with training underage girls and free of romantic attachments. And of course have normal pelvic anatomies, pass physical stress tests, not use narcotics and have negative full panel STI exams as well as pregnancy tests.

While I’m in London escaping the noise of construction at Blackthorn-on-Summit working as a ballet and pelvic coach for fetish escort trainees (a job I did while in Vegas) will be a great way for me to keep fit and get to meet a lot of the players in the London fetish Escort scene and Veronika should be able to take my classes with the trainees when she isn’t dancing.   

Valentines Day: Yesterday was St. Valentines Day and my psychiatrist and lover Marvin, fondly known as ‘Morning Wood’ because of his massive morning erections - which I have great fun helping him take care of before he gets out of bed – took me to see Fifty Shades of Grey and I rather liked it though it’s a bit mainstream. But then it is supposed to introduce the vanilla general public to BDSM.  So a bit of slap and tickle is about as rough as it got as they were trying not to have it rated any more risqué than an R in the U.S.

Then we went back to Blackthorn House and I let him watch me prepare to be taken. I changed from ballet-boots to Gaynor Minden hard shanked pointes, preparing my toes by taping them and pulling on ouch pouch toe-pads before pushing my toes into the blocks. Pulling thr backs over my heels I walked around on my toes to make sure they were comfy (ha, ha) before tying my feet in the shoes with the lovely pink ribbons. Then I washed my hands and prepared my latex Reflections diaphragm stretching the translucent membrane of the dome checking for cracks, thin spots and pin holes before adding an acidic spermicidal gel. Then I let him insert it for me, being sure to check afterward that it was properly positioned and my cervix was covered since I was CD8 and fertile and don’t want him to accidently get me preggers. I took him astride, then ‘Doggie Style’ entered from the rear with me on my hands and knees.

For our third encounter before going to bed to sleep we had ballet-sex with me holding on to the bedroom barre, trunk parallel to the floor, feet en pointe a la seconde with him penetrating me from the rear again. In that position most men would thrust into the posterior fornix, but with training and thrusting at a slightly downward angle a lover can force the soft stretchy dome of the Reflexions to surround his glans and penetrate my anterior fornix where the latex dome is stretched to the maximum forcing the cervix deeper and squeezing my lover’s glans the hardest. That is an extremely quick way to get even the most problem prone lover to orgasm.  He is such an amazing lover!

Personhood and contraception

The need for and use of vamp extensions

Vamp extensions: Readers of my entry: pointe-shoe quiz 9-19-09 will remember vamp extensions that provide additional support to dancer’s insteps. In the image accompanying this entry you can see how far over the front of her platform the dancer is working and why she needs vamp extensions on her shoes.

"Personhood": Banning Abortion, Contraception...And More?
Published on RHRealityCheck.org (http://www.rhrealitycheck.org)

“For those of us who hoped that the attempts to sneak in bans on abortion, hormonal contraception, and IVF under proposed laws called “personhood amendments” would disappear after the first attempt at passing such a law on a ballot initiative was thoroughly trumped at the polls in Colorado, well, I hate to tell you, but the anti-choice extremists aren’t going away. The next new battlefield is Florida [1], where anti-choicers hope they can use the invisibility of most female reproductive processes to convince the voters that there’s little people lurking inside your neighbor’s lady parts, even if there’s no biological evidence to support that proposition, and that this law will save the wee mythical people.

Obviously, there’s a good reason for pro-choicers to be alarmed when personhood amendments seem like they’re really going to get onto ballots. If they pass, that means that anti-choicers not only have a platform to issue challenges to abortion, but also that they have a chance to go after other anti-choice goals, namely pushing for bans on reliable, female-controlled contraception like the birth control pill and the IUD. Hey, we don’t know that female-controlled contraception doesn’t kill “babies”, since it’s all invisible behind that wall of flesh that separates the uterus from its proper Bible-thumping owners (a wall of flesh most of us call “the woman”), so better to be safe and ban the pill. Those doctors who say the birth control pill doesn’t work that way can’t be 100% sure, so we can discount their opinions entirely. Or, that’s the general gist of the argument, anyhow.

Clearly, a large scale challenge not only to abortion but to all of the most effective female-controlled forms of contraception is a very bad thing for women, on the grounds that anti-choicers might succeed and start forcing more women to bear children against their will. But there is a reason for cautious optimism when it comes to the personhood amendment push. Personhood amendments are a classic example of a political group overplaying their hand, and in this case, personhood amendments offer a great opportunity to take away the cover of fetus-concern that anti-choicers use to push their real goals of oppressing women and making sex fraught in the hopes people will have less of it.

Regular readers of RH Reality Check are no doubt familiar with the most taxing obstacle for the anti-choice movement in its goal to push its ideology into our laws, which is that they can’t be upfront with the public about what they believe without facing rejection. The organized anti-choice movement is hostile to contraception, and especially hostile to female-controlled contraception. This gives lie to their claims that they’re indifferent to women’s liberation and sexual behavior, and only interested in saving fetal life. Actual behavior indicates a pattern of hostility to sexual liberation, from the promotion of abstinence-only programs to the dishonest claims about the safety of the HPV vaccine. The public is willing to accept that an anti-choicer who is fascinated by fetus life is a good person with a legitimate claim. They’re not so sympathetic to people who just want to clap chastity belts on everyone and issue permission slips before you get to indulge your sexual desires.

The anti-choice tactic to deal with this problem is, to put it bluntly, to be two-faced. The face offered to the public is sentimental about fetal life, so that the public assumes that anti-choicers are well-meaning, if a big silly. The fact that there’s a larger anti-sex agenda is to be kept on the down low. As I’ve reported before, anti-choice protesters are trained to feign compassion for women and to dissemble about contraception [2] in order to keep up this façade.

Of course, when you actually write ballot initiatives that are about banning the birth control pill, it’s a lot harder to keep up the façade. Not that the anti-choicers behind this aren’t trying to adapt the “just lie about what you’re up to” tactic. As Wendy Norris reported, [1] they’ve softened up the language about a “fertilized egg” to “from the beginning of biological development”, a softening-up that is probably not only there to hoodwink the public but also to broaden the definition of what shedding of sex cells will be illegal. Squeezed hard enough, I could see how “the beginning of biological development” could be even be used to define male masturbation and female menstruation as an exciting 21st century version of “baby-killing”. Hey, all that sperm you left in a gym sock is kind of sort of the beginning of human development, especially if you’re daft enough to think that suppressing ovulation (which is what the birth control pill does) is “abortion”.

No matter how vaguely worded the assault on contraception along with abortion is, it’s still an assault on contraception. (And IVF, as well, and probably a whole host of things that fit into this vague category.) And contraception is incredibly popular. 98% of women will use it at some point in their lives, [3] which means that even the people railing against the evils of contraception are probably sneaking around and using it, while lying to their anti-choice buddies about it. All pro-choicers need to do is make it clear to the voters that this is an assault on contraception, and assume that the secret ballot will do the rest.

This strategy worked in Colorado, [4] with 73% of the voters rejecting a challenge to legal female-controlled contraception. I’m going to charitably assume that most of the 25% of people who use contraception and voted against it were simply confused, with a smattering of blatant hypocrites to round it out. A 25% confusion rate is low enough not to swing an election, but it’s still way too high. It’s clear that our main goal in fighting back against these personhood amendments should be education. If I may, I suggest starting with the Reality Check video [5] on why the birth control pill is not abortion. Once the biology’s out of the way, you can move on to explaining to your audience why anti-choicers are deliberately misrepresenting how the birth control pill works in an effort to get it banned, despite its widespread popularity.”

Responsibility and pleasure: I’m seeing more and more girls getting into trouble by not understanding that responsibility goes along with sexual gratification, regardless of what form the pleasure takes. The 16 y/o daughter of an Escort diver was within moments of serious injury this afternoon when she put on her mom’s SCUBA set with its octopus and pussy reg and tried to have solo bubble sex. She had watched her mom get bubble fucked while working with her trainer and a boyfriend and the daughter would probably have been safe if she had done as she was told and used a Milex Omniflex diaphragm with her mom’s pussy reg. But she used her own Semina diaphragm with a much thinner dome that couldn’t withstand the friction from the compressed wings of the special SeaCure, mouthpiece that has been adjusted to fit her mom’s vagina. When the reg mouthpiece was pushed into her vagina and locked behind her pubic bone the friction of the wing against the dome tore a hole in the silicone membrane and she lost her overpressure protection. That protection is vital for safely when releasing gas in the vagina as is done to expand the dynamic range of the woman’s vaginal muscles when she is being bubble fucked.

If the daughters pelvic anatomy hadn’t been smaller than her moms so that the wings of the mouthpiece weren’t such a tight fit perhaps the dome of the Semina wouldn’t have torn, but it did. We found her held on the bottom in only 7 feet of water (to lessen the nitrogen loading of training in deeper water) by an ankle leash attached to a drain cover. She was struggling to pull the mouthpiece of her pussy reg out of her vagina. It was a standard US Divers reg with a modified SeaCure mouthpiece, stuffed into her and locked in place by a wing of the mouthpiece wedged behind her pubic bone. Just as we got to the pool edge she expelled the second stage reg that should have been in her mouth and it floated in front of her face, her mask was flooded and her mouth open. She hadn’t been using the spit strap which would have prevented her from accidentally spitting out her reg during an emergency. Her mom and I both jumped in and while her mom purged the reg and put it in her daughter’s mouth I release the Velcro strap of the ankle leash and we got her safely to the surface before the daughter had a chance to hit purge and fill her vagina with air. Her mom helped her pull the modified mouthpiece out of her vagina and she was just bruised and scraped not torn. The ruined Semina was the scary part and her mom went ballistic when she saw the dome was torn and realized how close she has been to losing her daughter to an embolism. Since she is of age her mom is going to get her a Milex Omniflex and have her fitted with her own pussy reg so she can take lessons. That way bubble sex will be safe and not so painful.
