Boxing Day, diving the well


This year Monday 28 December is Boxing Day

The Photo: A caution to frenzied UK after Christmas sales shoppers

Blackthorn Barony and Boxing Day: The Oxford English Dictionary gives the earliest attestations of the term as being from England in the 1830s, defining it as 'the first week-day after Christmas-day, observed as a holiday on which post-men, errand-boys, and servants of various kinds expect to receive a Christmas-box'. However there are indications that gift giving to tradesmen and servants on the day after Christmas began long before that name was attached to the custom.

Presently in UK Boxing Day is the day after Christmas. However, because Christmas is on Friday this year Boxing Day is celebrated on the following Monday, December 28th. These days in the UK, Boxing Day is a bank holiday when the after Christmas sales begin. Traditionally ‘Christmas boxes’ contained money or presents and the Barony’s ‘boxes’ for employees who have performed satisfactorily throughout the year contain a sum of money equal to at least 10% of the servants annual wage. The Barony’s boxes are distributed to employees by the Baroness on the afternoon before Boxing Day and to tradesmen and others on Boxing Day itself.

 For her female employees my predecessor Edith, as 22nd Baroness Blackthorn, began a tradition in the late 90s of allowing most of the Barony’s women servants to travel to London aboard The Dragon the night before to attend the sales on Boxing Day. The minimum staff that stayed behind on Boxing Day to provide hospitality services to the castle are taken to London for the sales aboard The Dragon the following Monday. Anyone who has been in domestic service in a major household knows how tightly they are run so having time off with meals, transportation and lodging (sleeping aboard the Dragon in very comfy reclining seats) on their employer’s dime is very rare. Although the excursion is not entirely w/o oversight since very junior staff are in the care of senior staff members on the trip to ensure no harm comes to them. Male staff gets an equal amount of time off to hunt or fish on Barony land. So that has proved an extremely popular tradition.

Multi-bed hyperbaric chamber: The four bed industrial multiplace hyperbaric chamber (MHC) was the last piece of major equipment installed in my dive facility. It was installed in a space reserved for it after I decided that I could rent out the facility as a diver school when I wasn’t using it and needed an MHC to ensure I had the equipment needed to get the necessary approvals and licence. It’s an upgrade from the one that is about six years old that Adolph, my friend in Vegas, has installed for his dive facility that was used also by women in residence at his Spa, The Lorelei, near by.  

Diving the Well: I try not to vary my exercise routine very much regardless of what is going on around me because at my age I can’t afford not to keep my body in top dancing condition. That’s especially true over the holidays when fattening foods and sweets are so plentiful so that it is harder to keep the pounds off. So after my daily ballet barre and pointe classes I’ve been diving the shallower, 64 ft., well for dive-sex with one of the ballet-boys who are here to provide erotic companionship over the holidays. Carla fitted him with one of the Guardian FFMs reserved for guests. I chose him because he is very well endowed, is an avid SCUBA diver and has a reputation as a considerate partner and an awesome underwater fuck.

I find it amazingly exciting to hang restrained by an ankle leash weightless tethered to the floor 64 feet below the surface sucking gas while having my brains fucked out by a marvelous hunky and very experienced lover.  At that depth using regular gas rather than a Nitrox mix I sometimes get just a touch of nitrogen narcosis which heightens my danger if I’m not careful. To avoid that we breathe Enriched Air Nitrox with 32% oxygen (EAN32) to minimize the chance of nitrogen narcosis and extend dive time w/o decompression. Even so I have deco lines and spare air hung in both wells for periodic decompression stops the last being at 15 feet if needed. After sex I love having an afterglow nap while still tethered to the bottom. I have my computer set to alarm when I’ve reached table limits and I need to deco during ascent. Dive-sex uses a lot of air as air consumption techniques are pretty much ignored as you are racing toward and at orgasm so we use 130 cu ft HP steel tanks. That way we can usually have at least three encounters and a nap before we ascend.   

Since it’s after Christmas I’m luteal, I ovulated on Christmas day, so right now I don’t need a cervical barrier for contraception. I just need reproductive tract protection for ‘flood insurance’ to prevent having water forced into my uterus from the hydraulics of a lover’s thrusts if or when my vagina floods which is a common occurrence for women during dive-sex.  Ideal for dive-sex flood insurance is a latex Reflexions flat spring diaphragm because silicone lube so necessary for extended intercourse underwater can be safely used with a latex diaphragm and unlike arcing and coil spring rim diaphragms the flat spring rim is nearly impossible to under-thrust even when the man is intentionally trying.

After inserting my Reflexions I always squat push, down to force my cervix closer to the entrance to my vagina and use my fingers to express the air out of the dome forcing the stretchy rubber deep into my anterior fornix to be held there by the suction which appreciably increases the strength of the suction in the dome and therefore the strength of the seal and the safety of the device.

Female staff off: Three thirteen passenger vans took the ladies of the castle staff down to Caersws to board The Dragon for the overnight trip to London for the sales. They will sleep and eat aboard the train and the Dragon will be parked at an unused platform at St Pancras so they can breakfast and leave for the sales when the stores open. They were so excited! I’m glad to be able to do something to please them as they work very hard to please me during the year.

Sexual activity at St Lucy’s, Marvin and dive-sex


A silicone Semina coil spring rim diaphragm with its case and introducer

The Photo: A Semina diaphragm. Isn’t it lovely! You can see why St Lucy’s Student Health has all students fitted with it at menarche. It is so attractive and sexy that the younger girls want to wear one just like the older upper form girls who are sexually active.

First pregnancy tests of the school year: Because the students at St Lucy’s are so sexually active - either because of the courses they are taking or because of social relationships - every student who has reached menarche is required to take a pregnancy test at the end of each week. We prefer that students have copper bead (GyneFix) IUDs implanted or if not then a Skyla Levonorgestrel releasing IUD inserted or the single rod implant Nexplanon that released etonogestrel for contraceptive protection. However, no method of contraception is 100% effective, hence the weekly tests. Today was the second week of tests and all tests for both weeks have been negative so the administration is pleased.

Clitoral orgasms in the training regimen: The 316 club ballet girls all of whom have totally waxed pubes train for ballet-sex w/o male partners in the St Lucy’s studios, encounter sallies and their dorm rooms. The solo training regimen is to insert their 1.0 inch diameter 316 SS ball pair, don their hard shanked GM pointes and go en pointe while leaning back against a wall or barre and masturbate to orgasm. The goal is to be able to masturbate to orgasm w/o falling off pointe. Doing that will strengthen the students ankles and legs and, over time, train the girls to keep their ankles from wobbling or falling off pointe  during orgasms when with a partner and being penetrated from behind.

Each woman has her own technique in masturbating to climax by caressing her clitoris. The head of my clit is far too sensitive to caress it directly so what I do is slip my hand down my tights or under my thong and with a finger either side of my clitoral shaft caress the shaft until I orgasm. Once accustomed to clitoral masturbation you can use the technique to pass the time on long train or plane rides or while trapped watching a dull film, though if I do that in public I tend to nap afterward so I rarely masturbate watching a film in a theater. Too, if an encounter sallie is equipped with mid 19th century European barre brackets (now exceedingly difficult to find and thought inappropriate by today’s ballet schools) a girl can masturbate by rubbing her leotard and tights sheathed pelvis against the bracket protrusion placed there for that purpose. That is how some students and adult dancers get ‘bracket burn’ (a worn spot on the fabric) on the pelvis of their leotards.

Dive-sex during Labor Day weekend: On Labor Day I was CD10 and fertile so for diving I wore an Oves cap screwed down tight on my cervix and then double bagged by inserting a latex Reflexions flat spring diaphragm to prevent under-thrusting. Bea and Willow had gone to spend the weekend with a Brit-chick friend of Willow’s in LA leaving me home alone for several days with Morning Wood. I cautioned the girls about using condoms as the guys might not have current clean full STI panels.  I gave the servants the weekend off so Marvin could ravish me anywhere in the house. However, we spent a lot of time in the pool area getting him used to using an OTS Guardian FFM for dive-sex. He didn’t seem to have any trouble adjusting his delusion that I’m, Jenna, to accommodate the new environment and wearing SCUBA for sex with Jenna while she wore neutrally weighted silicone pool-pointes.

I’d had my divemaster hang a net across the pool at a depth of 30 feet so if anything went wrong neither of us would sink any deeper, but there are openings around the edges so we could dive to the bottom at 64 feet if we wanted.  We were diving enriched air Nitrox (EAN) with 32% oxygen rather than the 21% oxygen in regular air not so much to prevent DCS, but as a precaution to increase Marvin’s stamina as dive sex can be strenuous and I wasn’t sure about his stamina underwater. And of course before I entered the water I let him watch as I inserted a prefilled 10ml disposable applicator of DiveGel+ deep inside me, up against my silicone sheathed cervix before depressing the plunger and releasing the impermeable spermicidal lubricant. I took two more 10ml disposable applicators with me on the dive in case I needed more lube, but the one 10ml dose was plenty for the amount of action he was capable of. Marvin was great and was able to get off inside me three times in thirty minutes while I was tethered to the net at 30 feet with an ankle leash. Though, the last time I had to ripple-grip him to squeeze the cream out of his éclair.

Bea and Willow in LA: The girls came back late Monday night. Willow’s friend had taken them to a party in Beverly Hills on Saturday night where they were invited to another all day affair at an A-list movie star’s beach house in Malibu on Sunday and they ended up sleeping over. The movie star’s wife was at their home in Vail with her sister and their two young daughters recovering from pneumonia gotten while filming on the Yorkshire moors during heavy rains.

The A-list actor is know to have a roving eye and it immediately settled on Bea at the party in Beverly Hills where he took her unprotected in a spare bedroom at the back of the home.  The ID she was carrying said she was 21 and physically she is so well developed that she can easily pass as the baby fat of the typical sixteen y/o had been sweated off long ago from hundreds of hours in ballet studios leaving a well muscled lithe young goddess guaranteed to turn any man’s head. A-list enjoyed that so much that he made sure she was by his side with her deep, tight, wet vessel available every time he felt the need to fill it with semen. Supposedly A-list’s brother, a director, is planning to make a ballet film and wanted to have the girls at his Malibu beach house in pointe shoes so he could watch them stretching and walk around on their toes for inspiration. Fortunately both girls never travel w/o several pairs of pointes and pointes are far more comfy then 4 inch heels if you are standing in them for long.

Not that Willow was ignored. She became the playmate of Mr. A-list’s married brother, the film director, whose pregnant wife was in Vail along with Mr. A-lists family. The director seemed fascinated by Willow’s plummy Berkshire accent as well as her legs and high firm breasts so she got a lot of personal attention and the promise of a screen test if he didn’t have to wear a condom. That could have been a problem as Willow knew I’d be furious if I found out she and Bea hadn’t asked to see recent negative full STI panels for their sexual partners and she really didn’t want to be that blatant to ask for the men’s STI status so she just smiled and didn’t answer as Mr. A-list showed them his wife’s rubber room where she kept all her fetishwear .He and his brother are rubberists and they wanted to have ballet-sex while the girls were encased in latex catsuits, gloves, full hoods and pointe shoes. Bea and Willow are just about her size so her latex catsuits fit them. It was as Willow was opening the Rubber Services storage bags to find the color catsuit she wanted (yellow) that she remembered Rubber Services was one of the casinos ancillary businesses in support of the escort service that Pirate runs for us.   

She remembered that Pirate also supplies girls in LA as well as Vegas. So she called Pirate’s private number, put in her password and was put through to him and asked for his help. She explained that she and Bea were in LA for the weekend with guys who didn’t want to wear condoms and asked if they were registered with his escort service and if so what their STI status was. Fortunately they were and were clean so the girls could confidently take them skin-on-skin and drain coital discharge w/o worrying about STIs. So even though Bea had already taken A-list bareback she was ok. Immediately Willow hung up from Pirate he called me to let me know that Willow was thinking about their sexual health and told me where they were and who they were with.  So when Bea and Willow came back pleased with themselves and relaxed from several days of recreational sex ready to tell me all about the men they had been with I wasn’t sitting on the edge of my chair wondering if their health had been compromised and could enjoy their stories of amazing sex with some of the major players in the Hollywood film community.   

The Autumnal Equinox:  This year the Autumnal Equinox will occur on Tuesday September 23rd. Since they are in menstrual synchrony with me my wards and I will be CD5 and bleeding for the festivities. That’s a sign of favor that we will all be starting new cycles while performing ritual sex as Goddess surrogates using our own blood. However, I’ll have to watch our excitement level as I don’t want any of us to start hemorrhaging during the celestial ceremonies, or at any other time come to that.

I’m planning that we will leave after St Lucy’s chasses let out at 3:00 PM on Friday afternoon September 19th, so we hardly have two weeks before we leave for Inverness and Ullapool. I’m hoping the girls and I can have a few days at Crag Abbey to relax after the strenuous experience of being Goddess surrogate vessels on the ancient altars acting out the ritual planting of seed for fall crops. His Grace feels that spirited performances as Goddess surrogate vessels on our part will guarantee him and his crofter’s abundant spring crops and lots of healthy lambs from fertilized Ewes.

This Equinox celebration will be different from previous ones in which we participated. We will not be inducting very young men into the old ways. Rather, we are selecting young newly married men from His Grace’s crofters who have proven to be fertile by producing children one after another especially twins. The plan is to inseminate us with the highest potency semen available during the ritual planting of seed for which we as Goddess surrogates furnish the tight, wet, deep vessel in which it’s planted. The young wives of the men being chosen aren’t aware of the details and I expect some anger and perhaps even the chosen men being called unfaithful, but of course that’s not the case at all as they are being chosen to guarantee bountiful crop yields in the spring. However, that’s not to say that the men and my wards and I won’t enjoy our individual seed planting rituals.

SCUBA diving, menstruation and DCS


Emptying a Diva Cup menstrual cup

The photo: The Diva Cup comes in two sizes. Size 1 cup is 1 11/16" (4.3 cm) in diameter and the Size 2 cup is 1 13/16" (4.6 cm) in diameter. Both cups are approximately 2 1/4" (5.7 cm) in length in the body of the cup, with another 3/8" (1 cm) stem (2 5/8" total length). Until I bought my new Diva, just before we came to Scotland for the Solstice I was wearing a size one and it worked well. However, even I have to give in to age after a while so I decided on a size 2 as I’m now 43, but my vaginal muscles are far stronger than most twenty-something ballerinas known for their amazingly tight grips.

The Diva Cup should be emptied, washed and reinserted at least twice in 24 hours and can be worn overnight without concern of leaking and it can be safely boiled if necessary to clean it. Even on heavy days I can wear it for 12 hours w/o it needing to be emptied. DivaCup holds an ounce of menstrual flow (30 ml) and as the average woman only flows about 1 to 2 ounces (30-60 ml) per cycle so most of us can go longer than 12 hours w/o emptying if necessary.

Willow’s Royal Ballet friends and menstrual dive-sex: Since the Royal Ballet is off for a few weeks Willow asked four of her more sexually adventurous girlfriends from the corps and their boyfriends to come up to the Abbey for a few days of fun and relaxation and they arrived on the overnight train in Himself’s private car that had taken Jacks guests back to their jobs in London. The girls were so amazed at the luxury, blown away really since they got to have menstrual sex all the way from Euston to Inverness and despite a large supply of thick dark red towels provided for just that eventuality managed to get His Grace’s 1,000 thread count sheets bloody. All the girls are completely waxed with the exception of scalp hair and eyebrows which makes cleaning up after menstrual sex much easier.

Three of the four have GyneFix copper IUDs implanted and are menstrual while the fourth is on combined oral contraceptives (COCs) and started a new pack w/o having withdrawal bleed (her pill period) so she can dive period free during her time at the Abbey. The GyneFix girls are wearing menstrual cups.  All were fitted with latex Reflexions FS diaphragms for flood insurance to use while having dive-sex. It’s fairly unusual for ballet dancers to have copper IUDs placed because most enjoy being period free. However, some like Willow’s friends, find they are at a secondary libidinal peak while bleeding and are far moiré creative when fertile so they feel the inconvenience of dealing with flow control is worth it to be able to enjoy the cycling of their natural hormones.

Menstruation, hormonal contraceptives and DCS: There is a correlation between increased instances of DCS and the first week of a woman’s cycle when she is menstrual especially if the woman is on strenuous long or deep dives. Less frequent or shorter less strenuous dives during her period reduce the chances of DCS significantly. There is no indication that using hormonal contraceptives increases a woman’s risk of a DCS incident.   I’m CD26 and luteal and shouldn’t start my period until this coming Friday when I expect Bea, Willow and the Swan Twins will begin to bleed as well since they are in menstrual synchrony with me.

Of course while diving menstrual flow usually stops because diving is very dehydrating since the pressure forces water out of body tissues and fills the bladder, which is why even when you empty your bladder before diving after you have been down for a while you need to urinate again. However, after surfacing menstrual flow begins again and then some of us will gush filling our menstrual protection (tampons) occasionally to over flowing which is why a menstrual cup or a diaphragm works so well as they can withstand the gush that may occur shortly after surfacing. .

EAN32: However, because Willow’s friends are bleeding and menstrual dive-sex will be strenuous for them we are all diving enriched air Nitrox (EAN) with 32% oxygen rather than the 21% oxygen in regular air to reduce the possibility of DCS incidents. In order to do that our Divemaster had to clean our regs and OTS Guardian FFMs to ensure they were safe for use with EAN32 as there is an increased risk of fire when using improperly cleaned masks and regs with high oxygen content gases. Our 80 cu ft tanks are filled from a large cylinder delivered from a dive specialty shop in Aberdeen that services the divers working in the North Sea oil fields.

Menstrual dive-sex and cramps: Almost all women who have tried having sex underwater while menstrual have reported feeling totally free of menstrual cramps after an underwater orgasm. It’s common knowledge that an orgasm during conventional (surface) sex has cramps relieving powers, but as underwater sex is thought to be kinky very little to no research has been done under dive conditions so we are left with our own and friends experiences which for the most part have been very positive as far as relieving menstrual cramps is concerned. I’m sure it’s the endorphins released during sex, especially orgasm that relax the muscles in the uterus.

Underwater: Before diving we all emptied our bowels and bladders and our partners (chosen by coin flips among all nine of us girls) got to watch as we each inserted our latex flat spring diaphragms and then had the lucky guy insert two fingers and feel the cervix under the stretchy rubber membrane. then we let him insert a 10ml disposable applicator of silicone based DiveGel+ - which is a lubricant and biocide - and depress the plunger to add waterproof lube for the moving parts. Then we entered the water. The guys loved ‘helping’ and it was a fun way to get them invested in our safety.

Diving the cistern for dive-sex each girl has one leg tethered to an ankle leash connected to an iron ring on the cistern floor and there is a ring set into the floor in the center of each bay. After being tethered her buoyancy comp is inflated to keep her more or less stable while her partner moves between her spread legs and after pushing aside her bikini thong caresses her clitoral shaft to give her her first underwater orgasm as she sucks gas her bubbles rush to the surface and she quivers, moans, mews and gasps in her mask. Then he pushes inside her and grasps her buns to hold himself as deep in her as possible as he begins a series of thrusts caressing her G-spot before her muscular orgiastic contractions tip her over the edge into ecstasy taking him shuddering and gasping with her filling her with hundreds of millions of sperm as his body tries again for immortality.

Pro training, first penetrative encounter with Junior


Reflexions flat spring diaphragm a pro’s 1st choice

Summer school:  I’m continuing escort training for Cyndi and Bea while we are here on Virgin Gorda. They are actually enjoying it as they get to train their vaginal muscles with stainless steel ball bearings. They are up to wearing a 1.25 inch solid steel set each ball weighing 4.61 oz. Having a 16 and an almost 18 y/o girl able to comfortably and confidently take pointe class with more than a half pound of stainless steel tightly gripped by the muscles of their vaginas is a major confidence building accomplishment and they enjoy sunbathing with them inserted and moving the balls one at a time up and down their vaginal barrels. Working with the 1.25 in. balls is about the heaviest weight practical and they have mastered the necessary grip quicker than I did.  

Training ball maintenance: There are some housekeeping issues when training with steel balls. The acidic Ph of the vagina can begin to corrode the surface after prolonged use as can training with them in chlorinated pool water or in salt water encountered with swimming and diving in the ocean even when washed thoroughly after each use. To prevent this, a small amount of a high quality silicone intimate lube can be used to coat the balls prior to insertion.  We use DiveGel+. That serves two purposes it makes the ball harder to grip increasing the strength and stamina required to wear them and prevents the vaginal fluids or any water flooding the vagina from interacting with the polished surface of the steel ball. 

Pelvic requirements for training with steel balls: While all women can get some benefit from training with 4.6 oz steel balls while lying on our backs to get the full benefit – being able to stand, walk, dance and swim with them inserted - a woman needs a pronounced post-pubic vault in which the balls can rest against the back of the pubic bone even when the muscles in the vaginal barrel are gripping them. Otherwise the balls will drop out when the woman stands or bears down for a bowel movement and relaxes her grip. A very high percentage of women have deep post-pubic vaults, but a few don’t and some of those who want to be capable of the full range of escort services will have surgery to create a deep post-pubic vault just to be able to effectively use a diaphragm and heavy vaginal training balls.

Pro level vaginal training:  Being able to successfully manipulate vaginal balls while a diaphragm is inserted and a silicone lube is being used to protect the steel surfaces of 4.6 oz balls from the acidic environment is one of the ultimate vaginal skills demonstrating the strength, stamina and agility of a woman’s vaginal muscles. The dome of the diaphragm slippery with natural lube as well as silicone lube makes manipulating the heavy balls up and down the vaginal barrel a challenge, but with dedication it is an achievable goal.  

For Cyndi and Bea’s training they are wearing Reflexions FS latex diaphragms just as the professional girls do because (as returning readers will recall) a properly sized and correctly inserted Reflexions is extremely difficult to under-thrust, even for the most experienced swordsman and the wonderfully stretchy dome has much better heat transfer properties than does a silicone device. Personally, I think Reflexions develops a stronger seal so I usually wear Reflexions, over a Sucker, when with a man who has a very high fertility probability either from testing his semen or his paternity record with his partners.   

As I’ve mentioned before the Reflexions flat spring latex diaphragm is the style preferred by professional escorts where I live. Many of the young ones who have grown up with hormonal contraceptives are now switching to the Reflexions diaphragm, for two reasons; they are tired of hormonal side effects and there is a growing interest from their clients in having sexual encounters with women protected only by a cervical barrier. Most of the girls have tried FemCap and found it unsatisfactory either because it didn’t fit correctly or because it hurt their clients so the Professionals are returning to their grandmother’s cervical barrier, the diaphragm.

Dolphins and diaphragms: Today I am CD 20 and had my first penetrative encounter with Junior! For my encounters with him I’m wore a Sucker screwed down tight on my cervix and my standard 80 mm Reflexions FS latex D over it.  He saw me coming in the zodiac and met me on the surface over the lava tube. I anchored to the dive buoy that has a deco stop rope attached and checking my gear – My vintage beavertail jacket, an OTS Guardian FFM, a 130 cu ft HP steel tank of Nitrox and a Scuba Pro Ladyhawk BC - one last time then went over the side of the zodiac and Junior was all over me immediately I was in the water and I let him push me to the bottom.

I was lucky Junior took me to the bottom in the lava tube where it is relatively smooth and clear of sand because of the current. I was glad to have the cage over my K-valve as he pushed me along the bottom until my tank hit some lava rock where it caught. I was worried that if I was dragged along a sandy bottom sand could get stirred up and get into our moving parts or the valves on my FFM. Junior’s penis is about 2 inches in diameter and he had no problem finding where to place it to push it into me.  As I wrote above I’ve been working on strengthening my grip and since there was no foreplay involved I thought I’d get right to the purpose of our encounter and initiate the fluid transfer by contracting my muscles around his glans and got almost immediate results.  

I was so glad I was wearing the Reflexions as I could feel the soft dome stretch when he thrust into both my fornices, but particularly the anterior one where the latex squeezed his glans. He liked that enough that by the third time he came in me - he had nine other ejaculations during that 35 minute encounter - he learned to aim for my anterior fornix while my muscle contractions milked his shaft.

I think there is misinformation about the velocity of a dolphin’s ejaculate. While it’s very fast having him cum in me wasn’t harmful or even uncomfortable nor were any of the other encounters I had with Freckles several years ago.  Junior filling me with his thick bioadhesive semen feels like a sort of soft fisting (because of the quantity of his load) before it squirts out of me around the shaft of his penis in a thick cloud.  There is so much of it! Studies have shown that an adult male can produce more than 60 ml of semen per ejaculation which, if you think of a human male’s orgasm as releasing up to 5 ml of semen, is twelve times the amount of genital fluid! Then there is the fact that during a normal breeding encounter a male dolphin may ejaculate ten or more times so during our encounter I became covered in semen since the current was carrying it over my body and head where it stuck to the lens of my FFM making it difficult to see even though I’d wipe it off each time he came in me. . Fortunately dolphin semen doesn’t coagulate a few minutes after release as some animals do to prevent another male’s sperm from reaching the females egg.

Afterward: When he was finished he withdrew nuzzled me gently away from the rocks where my tank had been caught and seeing I was free swam away. At the time I had no idea that I’d been on the bottom with him for 35 minutes! I was exhausted, but elated to have had such a loving encounter with another intelligent species and be able to enjoy and tell about it afterward. I didn’t inflate my BC just finned up to the deco stop at 30 feet and clipped on for a 15 minute ‘just-in-case’ decompression stop before surfacing and climbing into the zodiac I use as a diving platform.  Unlike human semen dolphin ejaculate doesn’t liquefy 20 minutes after release so I was still Kegeling out his thick semen as I pulled the zodiac up on the beach.

Bougainvillea, ballet and dolphins


Virgin Gorda Flora

 The photo: Bougainvillea on the walls of my home on virgin Gorda. There are also violet and yellow plants as well and I love that some of it smells like honeysuckle.

Ballet and vacation: It’s a delight to get away where there isn’t someone always wanting a bit of my time and I can relax with almost no responsibilities. The only must is that the girls and I take at least one 90 minute class every morning, At my age I shouldn’t take any time away from the barre as it’s a struggle getting back in shape so it’s a lot easier to just make at least one class per day a normal part of my vacation schedule. As returning readers know I rarely wear slippers, preferring dead pointes or new pointes if I’m breaking in new shoes, for class. That way I keep my feet toughened. I have brought along my Gaynor Mindens to play in, but returning readers will remember that I prefer to train and perform in bespoke Freed Classics which I think, because the shoes have molded to my feet, give me much greater confidence and permit a wider range of expression.

Fertility: I’m CD 14 and ovulated today. I’m still closely enough involved with Bea and Cyndi that they are in menstrual synchrony with me so they are fertile now as well. Cyndi has a stringless GyneFix copper IUD inserted, but Bea and I are dependent on cervical barriers for contraception so we are wearing Suckers as well as Reflexions for dive-sex.

I love my fertile time of the month because all my senses and my creativity are at their height for these few days. Which reminds me that is another thing I love about Freeds, the scent of moist pointes after a hard class; damp leather, fabric, paste, rosin and sweat that makes a unique bouquet with the scent from the bougainvillea on the walls surrounding the protected patio on which we take class.

My studio: I’ve had the studio redesigned and relocated to a patio overlooking North Sound and the Atlantic in the distance. With the roof and the north and east walls of retractable glass the view is stunning - with Prickly Pear Island about two miles off to the north east across North Sound and Baker’s Bay to the south - and the breeze off the ocean is delightful. We take class with our backs to the ocean so we aren’t distracted. I had a fully sprung floor put down on top of the patio stone so there is no worry of training on hard surfaces. In addition to the bougainvillea there are several large Night Blooming Cereus plants below that patio that I hope will bloom while we are here. The large white blossoms are gorgeous and have a strong delightfully sweet woodsy scent.

Recreation: It’s off season with the temps high and occasional showers, but the weather has been great. We have the use of his Grace’s sailboat, the Lusty Lass IV, so we can explore the other islands or have a picnic in a deserted cove or dive the wall a few miles east of the islands. And with the ocean breeze time with a book by the pool is to be treasured. Then there is ballet-sex and dive sex with the guys and even in the rain swimming with the small pod of dolphins or exploring the lava tube on the bottom of the cove below the house are thrills enough for everyone.

Dolphins in the cove: I’m hoping for sex with one of the male dolphins while we’re here. I’ve written about it before and there is a young male of about 250 lbs, I’ve named him Junior, who is the right size.  He doesn’t seem to have a mate and I’ve been swimming with him as much as I can. I think he may be interested in me because he likes bumping me and pushing me toward the cove bottom. By caressing his genital slit I hope I can get him to penetrate me. In earlier dive-sex with ‘freckles’ my former dolphin lover I wore a mask, regulator and used an 80 cu ft tank. I wore an Oves then for flood insurance and even with his prehensile penis Freckles never pulled Oves off my cervix so I should be safe as far as upper reproductive tract protection is concerned.

Dive gear: This time I ‘m a bit better prepared with my dive gear.  I’m using an OTS Guardian FFM and a 130 cu ft HP steel tank. A 130 is far too large to allow rear penetration, but for dive-sex in the ocean I prefer missionary so I can watch my partner to try and avoid accidents. I have a cage guard over the valves at the top of the tank so if I get pushed into coral it won’t damage the valves and first stage. Ever since Anya had her upper arm badly torn several years ago, when a lusty dolphin forced her on to the bottom while trying to breed her, I’ve been wearing a 5mm vintage rubber beavertail jacket (with brass wrist and front zips and brass crotch twist fasteners) and hood to protect my trunk and arms if that happens to me. The twist fasteners allow me to be almost immediate available if a male is interested. I’m hoping that if I use lots of DiveGel and guide him inside me and wrap my legs around his tail my legs should be ok if I’m forced on to the bottom under him. Other reasons I’d like to avoid sex with one of the pods bulls are because their penises are too long and the older ones can have barnacles growing on their skin that can cut as bad as coral if his weight is on a diver.  .

The cove: The bottom where the lava tube collapsed and the aquifer empties into the cove is at about 60 feet and that depression covers around 1200 sq feet while the rest of the cove is an average of 35 feet deep tapering to 120 it the mouth where it empties into the sound. The outflow of cold fresh water is great enough and the aquifer current strong enough that the water in the lava tube depression is mostly fresh causing divers weighted for seawater diving to be a bit over weighted for the less dense cold fresh water in the depression so it’s best to wear a BC to prevent continually adjusting weights. On the bottom of the lava tube depression I’ve had anchors sunk in the rock to attach ankle leash tethers for dive-sex to hold the couple in place in the current.

The other girls and I usually breathe regular air diving the cove, but if I intend to play with Junior I’ll dive Nitrox to extend my depth and bottom time and wear my Scuba Pro Ladyhawk back flotation BC with air2 as well as an inflator hose off an octopus so if something happens to my main air I stand a better chance of getting to the surface. With dolphins you can never be sure what they will do. The nice thing about the back flotation of the Ladyhawk is that it allows me to get closer to my partner to be easily penetrated in missionary.   My cove can be such an exciting place!

Our first dive-sex seminar


How safe am I wearing a Reflexions for dive-sex?

Gyns, diaphragms and dive-sex: For the last 18 months my clinic has been considering hosting a seminar for selected Gynecologists to disseminate information about how adventuresome women can protect themselves from reproductive tract injury during sexual intercourse underwater. As returning readers know the need for intimate protection during dive-sex has been apparent to me for the last several years from the number of pelvic infections we have been seeing in patients who had recently had underwater penetrative sex.  

Of course not all underwater sex occurs while wearing dive gear. There are hot tub encounters and penetration while holding on to open pool gutters, but we are seeing more and more reproductive tract problems that seem to originate from encounters while wearing SCUBA and are occurring in deep water, which for the purposes of this post is below 6 meters, approximately 18 feet, depths which are available in most high-end pools these days. Problems can occur either from masturbation or with a partner. There is almost nothing in the published literature about the use of diaphragms to prevent upper reproductive tract infections caused from water forced into the uterus by the hydraulics of a toy or a partner’s thrusts when the vagina floods, which is fairly common, during underwater sex. So we felt a seminar to increase awareness of the problem and ways to minimize the danger of serious side effects from dive-sex was long over due.

The Venue: Our clinic got Adolph, who operates one of the countries deepest dive training facilities and the private underwater sex club, Splash, to sponsor a seven day conference/seminar for a few influential female Gyns from areas where most of the dive-sex related problems seem to be occurring; LA, Las Vegas The Hamptons and Palm Beach. All expenses; transportation, meals and lodging were paid  by our casino for the attendees. The seminar was held at The Lorelei, (think Splash for women) Adolph’s luxury Spa in the hills which is connected to his dive training facility so his multi-bed hyperbaric chamber was easily accessible if needed.

The first day was Spa check in, each attendee was tested for hCG – a precaution since diving can harm a pregnancy - and fitted for a diaphragm (none had used one before) and an evening dinner, four full days of seminars and training in encounter and deep water pools, primarily Adolph’s, but mine if necessary, and two days of sightseeing afterward to allow nitrogen buildup to purge from traveling attendees bodies before flying home. I had pushed for four full days of raining while others thought three was sufficient and that the attendees would be too tired after four very active days, but I was proved correct as the Gyn’s fitting skills were excellent after six fitting sessions with patients and none were tired enough to forgo any of the eight pool training sessions with male partners. Adolph participated because he sees the market for dive-sex training expanding as well as potential guests for The Lorelei and Pirate, who provided the male escorts, sees an increase in demand for dive-sex escorts both at The Lorelei and to service the demand at other locations within the continental U.S.

The participating Gyns: There were ten participants, four from LA and two each from Las Vegas, The Hamptons and Palm Beach all of whom were SCUBA qualified. None were allergic to latex and all were between the ages of 29 and 32. We intentionally kept the seminar small because of the need for personal attention and training for each woman with her male partners, experienced dive-sex escorts, first in encounter pools and then in deep water. Over the course of the seminar each Gyn was given the opportunity to be with five different male partners to give her experience with a range of underwater thrusting techniques. None of the Gyns was familiar with diaphragm fitting nor had any been diaphragm users themselves before the seminar. All the women were sexually active and none were married though most were in monogamous relationships. All the participants had the full series of Gardasil shots, negative full panel STI tests and were shown the recent clean full STI panels for the ten male escorts who would be partnering them. That way the women were reassured they were safe from STIs and could enjoy skin-on-skin contact with the men entering them.

All were anxious to experience dive-sex with an experienced trainer so they were able to rationalize sex during the seminar as just another part of their medical training. They had been given a chance to opt-out of the underwater encounters, but, quite rightly, felt it was vital to experience what it is like to have dive-sex so they would know what a patient would experience first hand and what it’s like for a woman to wear protective equipment to minimize the likelihood of problems from vaginal flooding during active penetration underwater. Even the two who were initially reluctant enjoyed the opportunities to experience underwater encounters for themselves while properly protected. All the women were on long acting reversible contraceptives (LARC) six on the single rod implant Nexplanon and four on the progestin releasing IUD Mirena. The emergency contraceptive Plan B One-Step was available if any participant felt her primary method of contraception might have failed.

Pelvic grooming and ageing: All the participants had pubic hair at least to some extent. Most had thick pelts trimmed to their bikini lines, but several had been waxed except for a thin closely trimmed landing strip.  If the participants were going to be fitted for penetrator plugs pubic hair would have been a problem, but for dive-sex training with professional partners who wouldn’t grind their hair into the mons veneris pubic hair was not a problem. And for one participant her partners used a soft cock ring as a buffer since she was slender and had very little fat padding her pubic bone.  

In the common women’s dressing room we all got to see each other’s bodies and all the participants had lovely proportional figures. While none had Victoria’s Secret class bodies, all were very attractive and seemed confident about how they looked even though a bit nervous about appearing nude among a group of near strangers. Several participants commented on my totally nude pubes, my perfect high small breasts and how soft and smooth my skin is. They were fascinated to find I had never been pregnant, but am lactating and wearing Lilly Padz under my bras to prevent milk stains from leaky nipples, which occur when I’m sexually aroused.

What I didn’t tell them was that six months ago my endocrinologist started me on a weekly regimen of a special blend of amino acids injections to increase my production of Human Growth Hormone, hGH. The shots are low dosage to minimize the risk of side effects such as joint and muscle pain, swelling in the arms and legs and carpel tunnel syndrome. Even so my hGH production has more than tripled! It’s costly, but very effective, at least for me. The shots have rejuvenated my skin, and toned the flesh on my throat and around my eyes so it is as firm and smooth as a twenty year olds and it boosted my energy and libido as well, though neither of those was showing any sign of decreasing. None of the Gyns had any idea that I wasn’t in my late twenties, but forty-two until I mentioned starting to use cervical barriers when I was twenty-one in the early nineties and they did the math. 

My role and Reflexions: I was part of the support staff as an expert cervical barrier fitter and dive-sex demonstrator. I fit them all with the latex Reflexions flat spring diaphragms we all wore for dive-sex training. In fitting them with Reflexions I stressed the marvelously stretchy dome membrane, the wonderful heat transfer properties of latex and the fact that the rim of a correctly fitted Reflexions is nearly impossible to under-thrust. Making it perfect for deep dives is the fact that the rim will not distort due to water pressure (as other rim styles will below 10 meters) regardless of how deep the wearer dives, a fact they would test for themselves on several 100 ft training dives. Fortunately they all had deep post-pubic vaults with the necessary pelvic ledge to take the anterior rim and wonderfully thick soft vaginal rugae in which the rim could sink to form a strong seal. As dive-sex specialists my partner and I demonstrated different positions and thrusting techniques and I dove with the Gyns and a woman divemaster on their first few dives to help reassure them of their safety if a woman is correctly fitted for and is properly using Reflexions as flood insurance.

In my oral presentation I didn’t mention my need for or benefit from wearing a death rubber as that is something only psychiatrists are likely to encounter, but I did stress that a correctly fitted and properly inserted latex Reflexions FS diaphragm and a good thick silicone base vaginal gel were the cornerstones of safe underwater penetrative sex for a woman. Women on hormonal contraception can safely use a diaphragm for flood control as can women with an IUD if a silicone gel lube is applied in the dome to prevent ‘string-grab’. I also taught the diaphragm fitting course at our clinic and then had evening fitting sessions for the Gyns using escort trainees as patients and one or two other women with anatomies unsuitable for diaphragms in evening training classes as examples of women who shouldn’t be fitted.

Costumes, equipment and comfort: We women all wore string bikini bottoms and swimsuit front closure sports bra tops for pool encounters and the guys wore Speedo slingshots. The men all had gelly cock rings to use if his partner said she was getting sore from having her pelvis pounded from her partner’s thrusting, but only one asked for a cock ring to be used during the entire five days a tribute to the professionalism of their male partners.

All the Gyns wore OTS Guardian FFMs, 80 cu ft aluminum tanks and Scubapro back inflated Ladyhawk BCs (all provided by Adolph) while the men and I wore our own OTS Guardians and other gear.  OTS Guardian FFMs are standard for escort training, Splash, The Lorelei and the deep water training facility so buying in volume we get a great discount.  It took a few test dives to get the Gyns accustomed to floating on the surface in a wing back BC, but after that they loved the comfort and freedom of movement wearing a Ladyhawk gives a woman diver.

During the day we refreshed ourselves with sports drinks and fresh fruit to replace the electrolytes excreted. In the evenings we replenished our energy with high calorie meals to replace the calories burnt off by underwater sex, which is surprisingly strenuous. Adolph had his divemaster hang a net across the well at 100 feet and fastened sets of tethers (ankle leashes) to it so the Gyns could experience dive-sex at 100 feet while breathing Nitrox. That way there was no worry about a fatal accident if someone had an uncontrolled descent she wouldn’t go to the bottom at 216 feet.  The Gyns loved the four days of strenuous exercise during which they rotated through at least five men each over that period enjoying multiple orgasms with each partner while screaming and moaning into their FFMs. At the end they were all on Ibuprofen for sore pelvises and abs muscles from meeting their partner’s thrusts during encounters that began unhurriedly progressing to frantic couplings and underwater ecstasy in a cloud of bubbles.

Afterward: Most of the Gyns didn’t think they would be able to orgasms during dive-sex encounters. Obviously none had been with a professional escort who can make a girl believe she is the most interesting, beautiful and sexually fascinating woman he has ever seen and mind-fuck her into falling under his spell at least while he is with her. All of the women reached orgasm within ten minutes and the average was five after the first time when they were all in lust for their men. The girls said afterward that they had no idea that being taken to orgasm while sucking gas one hundred feet below the surface could be that intense, which may spell trouble for some of their boyfriends.

The attendees all agreed that their intensive diaphragm fitting training and underwater penetrative encounter training gave them badly needed insight into the thrill and dangers of underwater sexual intercourse and the skills and knowledge to counsel their patients about the use of safety equipment to minimize the likelihood of reproductive tract problems occurring from dive-sex encounters.  Our clinic, Adolph and Pirate all thought the time and expense of the seminar were well worthwhile as it brought together and developed friendships and a solid base of specialist knowledge among high profile trend setters in women’s reproductive health located in up-market areas of the country where it is likely to be most useful.

A new deep-dive gas guard



A dive-chick having a DCS attack

Decompression sickness, DCS: Adolph has a young dive facility attendant who went up to his summer place on Lake Tahoe to bring back some dive equipment to the training facility. It’s about a 500 mile trip one way – his place is on the California side south of Truckee - so they were going to stay over night. The lake is at an average surface elevation of 6,225ft, about 4,000 feet higher than Vegas, and the dive-chick wasn’t paying attention to her nitrogen loading. She had dived to depth the evening before she and her boyfriend drove his truck to Tahoe. They were going to have a swim in Adolph’s indoor-outdoor pool so she changed into her wetsuit and went out on the dock to get the equipment off his boat. She hadn’t been feeling well on the drive up and had an attack of DCS and collapsed before she got to the boat. This is an example of DCS from diving before moving to altitude. If the diver moves to a high-altitude location on land immediately after scuba diving s/he may be at risk of DCS. With this dive-chick she is young, thin, and healthy and so a +4,000 change in elevation shouldn’t have been much additional risk, but she was on the edge of her nitrogen limit and some people are more likely to be affected by DCS than others and she was one of them. Her BF dialed 911 and an EMT crew were there in about half an hour. Fortunately there is a hyperbaric chamber facility in Reno which was only about 70 miles away East on I80. She’s doing well and will probably make a complete recovery, but she won’t be able to be an active diver again.

Reflexions latex diaphragms as deep-dive gas guards: I have been working with my Gyn to try the Reflexions latex flat spring diaphragm as an effective gas guard at depths below 30 feet. Returning readers will remember that most diaphragms, the ones with arching spring and coil spring rims, should not be used for contraception or as a gas guard if the wearer intends to dive below 30 feet. That’s because the arcing spring and coil spring designs have air pockets in the rims that cause the rims to distort at pressure below 2 atmospheres, 33 feet. The much more seldom prescribed flat spring rim has no voids in the rim that will make it sensitive to distortion from pressure below 33 feet. I’ve been testing the flat spring diaphragm by using it as a gas guard (worn over my primary protection, an Oves cap) at the bottom of the pit about 65 feet below the surface and it has worked very well. The pit is 68 feet deep, but to prevent being rammed into the bottom while penetrated I like to be taken a few feet off the bottom. A few more successful tests and I will have the confidence to use a Reflexions during my 2 to 3 day period – when I can’t wear an Oves - so I can have deep dive-sex on any day during my cycle. The next step was to test Reflexions at 130 and with Adolph as my partner. I was sure it should work at that depth as well as it does at a depth of 65 feet. Talk about a breakthrough in deep dive-sex! And of course almost any woman can be fitted for a Reflexions so she can have effective .protection for deep dive-sex regardless of where she is in her cycle which is so awesome!

I had planned to wait until Elke was through with her visit to Adolph’s but she developed a sinus infection and a migraine headache and has to lie still in a darkened room and can’t dive for a few days so Adolph asked if I wanted to try my gas guard tests with Reflexions at 130 feet this weekend. That worked well with me since Jacques is in Europe on business so I had some free time. Adolph is fun to be with if you are careful to double check your equipment and enjoy risk taking. He’s way kinky and can be very sadistic, but he’s not so bad when he is with me as a partner. However, if he can be somewhere else when his guest’s are using diving equipment an accident seems to happen. His women guests will almost certainly have a major equipment failure of some sort and his students have multiple equipment failures from which they learn to survive, or not.

Breathing gas: We decided to do the 130 foot test breathing regular air (21% oxygen) rather than Nitrox because at that depth with higher concentrations of oxygen there is a greater risk of oxygen toxicity and 130 feet is below the safety level of both Nitrox I and II mixes contain 32% and 36% oxygen, which have maximum operating depths of 110 ft and 95 ft respectively. So we took the penalty in the form of a long decompression stop on our ascent. Even so we wore Ocean Reef FFMs so if we did have an OT seizure we wouldn’t have to worry about losing a regular when unconscious. At 130 feet we were both feeling the effects of nitrogen narcosis, but as long as we concentrated on having sex we were safe enough. Afterward we ascended to a bit above 100 feet to enjoy the afterglow w/o either of us doing something stupid while narced. Before someone asks why we didn’t use Trimix again the answer is that Helium conducts heat 5 times faster than air and so it can chill divers who then need thermal protection (When we used Trimix a few days ago we were in wetsuits in relatively warm water.) not something I wanted to contend with during dive-sex device testing. The facilities water heaters and circulators have been running full time and the water was a uniform 78° F, delightful for dive-sex because both partners expend a lot of energy. Adolph wore a Speedo slingshot and I wore one of my custom made Gottex yellow thong bikinis under my BCD. The Gottex suit was almost a mistake since I don’t like to lose one of them and I didn’t want to dive to the bottom to retrieve it if it fell away unnoticed. So after he undressed me I wedged the suit under the first stage regulator fitting on my tank. And afterward it wasn’t as though the deco stop was wasted time. I had Adolph take me again while I was tethered by 2 ankle leashes to wall mounted D-rings at a depth of 20 feet. He penetrated me in Missionary (I was tethered in a split) so I could watch him moving in and out of me. He is quirky, but he was very considerate of me and gave me a massive G-spot orgasm before he spewed hundreds of millions of sperm against the stretchy latex membrane of my gas guard.

130 foot depth test results: After we decompressed and rested I Kegeled then douched with clean water to get the semen out of me so that as I removed the Reflexions the dome wouldn’t pick up any semen from my vaginal walls. I had worn the diaphragm dry (without spermicide) and was double bagged, with an Oves sucking on my cervix so if the diaphragm leaked I wouldn’t be at risk, and was delighted to find that with the exception of a little natural lube the dome was empty. There was no leakage of any sort water or semen from three very intense encounters with a lot of cervical thrusting two of which were below 130 feet. I realize a single test dive isn’t definitive, but I see no reason why the results shouldn’t be repeatable with a properly fitted and positioned flat spring diaphragm.

Super Bowl XLIV (44) 02-07-2010: A friend asked what I will be doing on Super Bowl Sunday. At the casino there will be the usual private parties - I think we are nearly at capacity - and the screens in the bars will be showing SB XLIV, but I'm using the occasion as an opportunity to get away from work. I’m having a get-together at my place similar to the one I had at Thanksgiving. I’m thinking the guests will be: Taryn & Chuck, Cyndi & Chris, Anya & Robin, Shelly & Jeff, Marie-Claude & Pirate, Diané & Peter and Jacques & me. And, perhaps Elke and Adolph if they get along well and Elke can stay another few days. I’ve also invited Cyndi’s mom Fiona and her escort of choice – on Thanksgiving it was the sponge worthy Maj. Colin Tree – but I’m not sure she can join us if congress is in session. The menu will be primarily barbecue but steaks and chicken will be available cooked by casino kitchen and wait staff while off duty so they can make some extra money. The pit and swimming pools will be open for qualified divers so I’m hoping to have sex with Pirate and Chris neither of whom I’ve been with intimately since Thanksgiving. I’ll be CD24 then and still have Oves sucking on my cervix so I will be able to have dive-sex at any depth.

Ballerinas And Female Athletes Share Quadruple Health Threats

ScienceDaily (May 31, 2009) — A study led by sports medicine researcher Anne Hoch, D.O., at The Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee has revealed that young female professional dancers face the same health risks as young female athletes when they don't eat enough to offset the energy they spend, and stop menstruating as a consequence.

"These two components of the female athlete tetrad put them at higher risk for the other two; the cardiovascular and bone density deficits of much older, postmenopausal women," according to Dr. Hoch, associate professor of orthopaedic surgery and director of the Froedtert & the Medical College Women's Sports Medicine Center.

The researchers studied 22 professional ballerinas, all members of the Milwaukee Ballet Company, to determine the prevalence of disordered eating, amenorrhea (lack of menstruation), abnormal vascular function and low bone density. Study findings were presented at the American College of Sports Medicine meeting in Seattle, May 30.

The dancers completed questionnaires on their menstrual patterns and eating habits, and underwent a blood test for hormonal levels. Thirty-six percent of the group had disordered eating habits and 77 percent were in a calorie deficit. Twenty-seven percent were currently amenorrhea, 23 percent had low bone mass density and nine percent were taking birth control.

Arterial ultrasound measurements revealed that 64 percent had abnormal artery dilation in response to blood flow.

"It was unknown if professional dancers without menstrual periods have evidence of vascular dysfunction, yet some characteristics of the tetrad were common in this group," says Dr. Hoch. "Eighty-six percent had one or more components, and fourteen percent had all four."

The study was funded by grants from the Clinical and Translational Science Institute Adult Translational Research Unit of the Medical College, and by the Steve Cullen Healthy Heart Club Funding of 2008.

Co authors of the study include: Paula Papanek, Ph.D., associate professor and director of exercise science at Marquette University; and at the Medical College - Heather Havlik, M.D., a sports medicine fellow; William Raasch, M.D., professor of orthopaedic surgery; Michael Widlansky, M.D., assistant professor of medicine in cardiology; Jane Schimke, clinical research coordinator, and David Gutterman, M.D., senior associate dean and professor of medicine in cardiology

Comment: Where has the management at the Milwaukee Ballet been? It’s not as if the findings about dancers, eating disorders and secondary amenorrhea in the article above aren’t already known! Good ballet company management requires proactive health management to ensure performers aren’t putting themselves at risk. Our casino ballet has regular bone density scans for members as well as a staff dietitian so that women who are dieting are assured of getting the nutrients they need for a grueling performance (as well as an awesome partying) schedule.

Quality bottom time: My main squeeze, Pirate, and I had some quality time last night at the bottom of my 68 ft. deep swimming pool, which my friends call ‘the pit’. There I can have three atmosphere dive-sex w/o having to worry about being bothered with wearing a suit, though I do wear a bikini, but just as a tease so my partners have something to remove as part of fore play. Since I’ve started wearing a bikini to the bottom I’ve shut off the chiller that cools the water below the thermocline at 50 feet. That saves electricity by not running the thermocline pumps as well, even though the huge solar array in the desert behind my house usually provided more power than the house uses. The big thing a girl needs to remember before dive-sex is to apply an applicator of Dive-Gel (the silicone based intimate lube that comes in prefilled 10ml disposable applicators) in her vagina before diving. It is also a good idea to take one or two Dive-Gel applicators on the dive, just in case. The nap during afterglow from dive-sex while tethered to the bottom is to die for!

Dive-sex and Nitrox II: Because of the intensity of the dive-sex orgasmic experience we require our female escorts, trainees and casino guests renting facilities for dive sex to breathe Nitrox – preferably Nitrox II – during their encounters. Enriched Air Nitrox EAN32 and EAN36 (also called Nitrox I and Nitrox II have 32% and 36% oxygen respectivly rather than the normal 21% oxygen in the air we breathe. Nitrox II will usually prevent a diver from fainting during an orgasm while submerged if she has had dive-sez before and knows what to expect. A diver who hasn’t had an orgasm during dive-sex will probably faint during her first orgasmic encounter, but if her spit-strap is securely fastned to prevent expulsion of her regulator she should be safe enough. Even so we have set up initial dive-sex training – for a few carefully screened women taking advanced escort training - to occur in shallow water so the ascent time is very short should there be a problem.
