hd, I just posted this on my MiC thread. It's from the author's website:

"In this explosively original book, Perel explains that our cultural penchant for equality, togetherness, and absolute candor is antithetical to erotic desire for both men and women. Sexual excitement doesn't always play by the rules of good citizenship. It is politically incorrect. It thrives on power plays, unfair advantages, and the space between self and other. More exciting, playful, even poetic sex is possible, but first we must kick egalitarian ideals and emotional housekeeping out of our bedrooms."

Provocative, don't you think?

Honestly, when I try to picture you with someone else, I just see you being bored. There is something about MRS. HD's unavailability that just lights your fire.

In the world of healthy, wholesome, by-the-book sex, that would probably be seen as pathological and founded in low self-esteem.

But I think Esther would understand...
