Sex Tips: Where’s My Pole???

Friday, August 14th, 2009

by Shar Rednour
I remember Fanny Fatale doing “Stripping for Your Lover” classes back before every reality star on Earth was installing a pole in her living room. I was at my son’s preschool the other day and all the straight moms were discussing which pole-dancing class to take! They were actually embarrassed that the new mom on the block (me) overheard them. Hilarious.

Dancing to entice your prey is so sexy. My favorite part of One Night Stand is the beginning when they are dancing at the club and end up in a hot bathroom make-out. I love it.

In Hard Love we have a femme Renee stripping for a butch and–I think the first ever butch (Devon) to strip on screen. You can easily watch her moves for tips on how to do this at home. She is not perfect–I actually taught her in the moment on set. And that is a good learning tool.

The pros make it look easy, then you try it and fall down getting off your panties!

Tip 1: Don’t wear panties. Joking. Lie down on your back and stretch your legs above your head to take off your panties. Butches or masculine folks: have your babe or boi pull down your briefs for you to find a big surprise waiting!Finger Sucking JPG_opt

I find the anticipation of sex one of the best ways to get yourself eaten alive.

Tip 2: When doing a striptease, judge your audience. Is your lover (or lovers) going to be able to sit there and wait until the show is over with? Try tying her up to a kitchen chair (with no arms) with your bathrobe sash if think she is going to scoop you up and carrying you off to bed before the show is over with. Did you see how Renee and Devon ravaged each other after the heat factor went up from the stripping?

glove fisting JPG_optI KNOW WHAT YOU ARE SAYING–what’s so bad about being dragged off to bed before the tease is done? Or better yet thrown right down and fucked silly right there on the floor? Well, it is better. If you make them wait, and squirm, and salivate, and make their fists open and close, fingers and cocks rising waiting. Trust me. It’s better.

Tip 3: For those wearing combat boots or any boots: Untie or loosen your laces before you get started. Our PA loved loosening Johnny Fremont’s (Devon’s) laces. I had to slap her to get her out of the shot.

Tip 4: Front-closure bras. That does help.

Tip 5: Zippers not buttons. Whether it’s a long zipper down your back that you need help with or a dykedick hiding under Levi’s fly.

Note: intermediates and pros can handle some buttons of course. Just practice. When there’s no time, grab the clothes with zippers. And if they stick–be prepared to lose the dress forever because you’ll want to just rip it off!

Bonus Tip: You don’t need a pole to strip for your lover.

So what’s your fetish?

Friday, June 26th, 2009

Hard Love and How to F*ck in High Heels

As we head into Pride weekends over the summer, you are no doubt going to be seeing a lot of queer folk in fetish wear. Here in San Francisco we see it all from grown men in fuzzy Pan suits (that’s the pagan Pan) to the typical chaps with some hot asses (hopefully) in full sight. Don’t forget that this isn’t just a fashion statement but related to sexual fetishes.

Do you dream of a motorcycle babe throwing you on her throbbing ride and throttling you away? Do you actually masturbate to the image? If you watch my movies or read my writing you will know that I am pretty obvious in my fetishes: shoes, feet, hands…more hands. I particularly love to indulge others in their fetishes as well doing eyeglass photo shoots, public sex and more. All with photographer artist Phyllis Christopher, www.thesexystuff.com.

At SIR Productions, we worked together as well. She’s in our outtakes in Talk to Me Baby; she’s in the beginning of How to F*ck in High Heels as well. But my fetishes are not fakes on film. Our fetishy, fantasy-filled orgasms inspired our work to the degree of obsession.

So how about you? Do you really have a fetish? Let’s find out with my handy quiz.

When you jill-off do you think of:

a) Two or even three bodies rubbing together in some sex act?
b) Being tied up with panty hose shoved in your mouth as someone tickles your knees?
c) Being forced to eat a cupcake while Babes-o-rama plow you from behind?
d) Forcing your gal to eat a cupcake while you plow her from behind?
e) I can’t answer right now, Shar. There is a stiletto heel against my temple and I am about to cum. Talk to ya later.

I get most turned on by:

a) The thought of genuine lovemaking and a good orgasm.
b) Titties bouncing.
c) Sniffing dyke hands.
d) Staring at dyke hands…then screaming wildly when they touch my high heels.
e) Sticking my toes in pudding. Butterscotch pudding.

I’m embarrassed to admit that:

a) It’s not only guys buying those naked aerobic videos.
b) There’s nothing wrong with women in headbands (did I mention ’80s naked aerobic videos?).
c) I wish my lover wore a dirty jock strap and talked about locker rooms.

PARTY GAMES

Last but not least no Summer of Pride is complete without party games. Try this one.

Guess My Fetish! This is more fun than it sounds. It’s kind of a group Newlyweds game. Each person has to write her own fetish on a card and keep it hidden so no one can see. Then take turns when as a group you debate what each person’s fetish is. Finally, pick as a group (this makes it fun because you have to argue with each other like Family Feud and make a group decision for your bet on her fetish). Then do the reveal to see who’s right. Pick what your loser–either the trusting lesbian or the misguided group –has to do: drinks, kiss, shows their tits, you know your peeps. Pick something good.

Pin the Feather on the Fetish

Hang up pictures on the wall of items to represent typical fetishes such as a woman’s legs, breasts, high heels, work boots, eyeglasses, leather and lace, boxer shorts, hot hands, armpits, etc.

Blindfold your lucky contestant. Turn her in circles and give a feather with sticky tape on the end. Wherever she sticks it is the fetish she has to try. Either just thinking about it while masturbating or doing it with a lover. Of course you can have a “tryout” closet ready at the party and take down the results onsite if you wish!

Ask Fanny: Does Age Matter?

Monday, June 15th, 2009

Deborah Sundahl - Female Ejaculation ExpertG-spot expert Deborah Sundahl, a.k.a. Fanny Fatale, answers your questions about female ejaculation and the g-spot.

Dear Fanny,
If you’ve never female ejaculated before, where do you begin? How do you convince a perhaps skeptical partner that this exists? How much time do you need?

Lastly, I’m over 50; does it matter how old you are?

Signed,

Nervous in Nevada

Dear Nervous,
The first step to begin to learn how to female ejaculate is to inform yourself about what female ejaculation is and where it comes from.  In my experience, half the work of learning how to female ejaculate is done by educating yourself on the subject.

Female ejaculation is prostatic fluid with a little bit of glucose (sugar). This fluid is produced by the female prostate. The female prostate is the G-spot. All women have one, as do all men. Therefore, all women can ejaculate if they want to learn how.

Learning how to ejaculate is fairly easy. Most women can accomplish it in a few months, if not right away, once they realize an important factor: the feeling of needing to pee is actually the urge to ejaculate

What can take many years to learn is how to reawaken the sensations of the G-spot, which are ultrasensitive by nature but numbed out in most women.

A sizable minority of partners does not know about female ejaculation; therefore, if partners are surprised with this information during sex, they get shocked and often react in an angry and/or turned-off manner. So, first thing to do if you ejaculate already, or learn to do so later, is to tell a new partner, “I ejaculate!”

Meanwhile, the best way to convince a skeptical partner that female ejaculation and the G-spot do indeed exist is by ejaculating when making love. Surprise them with the wet towel under their nose, so they take a good, deep sniff. They will smell for themselves that it is not urine. That should take care of the issue of skepticism right then and there.

Lastly, you can learn to ejaculate at any age. Age does not seem to make ejaculating harder or make the amount of ejaculate less. In fact, older women can have an edge on the ease of learning how to ejaculate, because older women are more inclined to want to relax and open their body to more sensuality—a state that makes it easier to ejaculate.

Good luck!

Fanny

Sex Tips: Masturbation for Lovers

Thursday, April 16th, 2009

Speaking of masturbation, some couples forget that this can be one sexy turn-on, especially if one of you has her period or wants to try something different. So we’re bringing back a very popular sex tips column.
 
Masturbating side-by-side with your lover can be one of the sexiest entrees to lovemaking or a just a great way to relax and enjoy each other without the pressure to perform.

You can masturbate while your partner watches, or watch as your lover masturbates. Or you can both just lie there and enjoy listening as her breathing quickens.
Some couples like to get in the mood by watching a sexy DVD. Other couples talk dirty to each other.

Use your vibrator or your hand. You can also lie on your belly and ride a pillow, which works great especially if your vibrator is plugged in and humming.

Rules or no rules? Some couples like to have set guidelines. Do you have to ask permission? Do you like being touched while you’re masturbating? If you’re not sure, just roll with it.

If your lover touches you—perhaps stroking your breast or belly, perhaps putting her hand on top of yours while you masturbate—see how you feel. Is it a pleasant sensation? Distracting? Do you like it? Talk with your lover about the experience.

If you’re shy, the best way to try masturbating with your partner is to get under the covers, turn off the lights and close your eyes. Relax and let your fantasies take you where you will. Touch yourself and let yourself feel the sensations of skin and hair. Then gradually touch yourself between your legs and explore.

Masturbating together in the shower or bathtub can be a real turn-on, too. You’ll need some lube, no doubt, so make sure you’ve got some nearby.

If you’ve got a Jacuzzi, hot tub or sauna, position yourself over one of those jets of water and tease your lover by masturbating for her. She can choose to just watch or please herself over another water jet.

Most of all, have fun! If it’s not fun, then there’s no sense continuing. Instead, ask your lover for what you want. Talk to her. Find out what’s holding her back or why she doesn’t like to see you masturbate.

Sex Tips: How to Ask for Anal Sex

Monday, March 16th, 2009

It doesn’t have to hurt! It shouldn’t hurt. That is the #1 reassurance you need to give your partner if there is even a hint of fear.

Carol Queen, in Bend Over Boyfriend, emphasizes talking about anal sex before you do it. One way to bring up the subject is to talk about your fantasies with your partner, preferably while you’re fully dressed, but after making love is a good time too.

Sometimes it’s hard to talk first. Reader Gaye from New York City writes to suggest rolling over on to your belly while making love, then sticking your ass up in the air.

Later on, say to your lover, “I really liked it when you touched my ass.” See what your partner’s reaction is, and use that as a basis for later conversation.

Recently, a customer called to say that he’d heard about Bend Over Boyfriend because a friend of his wanted him to “try it, and be open to it.” She told him to watch the DVD and then they’d talk about it. Good idea, we told him.

Another idea is to write a love letter to your honey, and just say, “I want it!”

10 Tips for a Romantic Valentine’s Day

Sunday, February 1st, 2009

Valentine’s Day on a Saturday is magic. Use your imagination to celebrate and give her pure pleasure.

Here are 10 tips you can use to make this Valentine’s Day a super-special weekend for the two of you. Plan ahead. Mix and match as you see fit:

valentines-day-chocolates1. Make it a traditional holiday. Buy her a box of chocolates—we’re fond of Jacques Torres’ Chocolate—a single red rose and a bottle of wine. Stay home, eat chocolate and make love.

2. Take it up a notch. Send her a dozen not-red roses. Make them yellow or white or pink or deep burgundy. Have them delivered in the morning so she can enjoy them all day long.

3. Invite her for dinner and make sure you’ve got a reservation. Dress up. Order the chocolate dessert and feed it to her.

4. Forget dinner and take her to brunch instead. Follow that with a trip to a spa for a side-by-side massage or hot tub.

5. For a simple yet romantic day, pack a picnic lunch and drive to the ocean or mountains or river or lake…wherever you can park and get a scenic view. Afterwards, go back to her place for the rest of the day.

6. Sweep her off her feet for a weekend getaway. Pack your toy bag. Leave Friday night so you can wake up in your hotel room on Valentine’s Day morning. Fuck like bunnies all weekend long.

7. Dress up and take her dancing. Take her to the kind of club she likes—whether it’s ballroom or downtown go-go or uptown hip-hop—and make it a night she’ll remember.

8. Find a hotel or bar with a fireplace. Take her there for late afternoon tea or cocktails. Better yet, order hot cocoa with marshmallows and get cozy.

9. If you’re feeling adventurous, invite a close friend to take pictures or shoot video of you and your sweetie… Your friend can watch or join in.

One Night Stand10. Our favorite: Stay home, drink Champagne and watch dirty movies. This year we’ll be watching One Night Stand. This flick is so good we can watch over and over and over again. Then we’ll dress up and go out to a romantic local restaurant and bar. Not exactly Paris, but inspiring nonetheless.

So now you know what we’ll be doing on Valentine’s Day. What do you plan for your sweetie? Tell us here.

Ask Fanny – Tantra for the New Year

Thursday, January 1st, 2009

Some of you are interested in slowing down and going deeper into your sexuality, your erotic desires and your intimacy with a partner. For those of you who are ready or curious, Tantra is your ticket.

Here for the New Year are Five Principles of Tantric Sex to contemplate:

Breathe
The vast majority of people hold their breath when they are sexually excited or about to have that orgasm. Tantra teaches the opposite: breathing will lengthen and heighten your sensual pleasure and your orgasm.

Relax
Most folks tense up when they are trying to have an orgasm – especially when we use a vibrator. Tantra teaches how to have exquisite orgasms by doing the opposite: relaxing.  Relaxing into pleasure. Breathe. Relax.

Open Your Body to Sensation
When we tense and don’t breathe, we feel fewer sensations, and therefore need more stimulation (like a vibrator or harder cracks on the ass) to become aroused. Tantra teaches the body to become nearly electric with sensation when it is touched.  Breathe. Relax. Feel More Pleasure.

Circulate Erotic Energy throughout Your Body
Why let that large pool of erotic sensation stay in the genital area? That aroused state is energy, and it is delicious. Tantra teaches how to expand that energy beyond your genitals and into the rest of your body. That feel-good pleasure is healing to every cell, as well.  Breathe. Relax. Feel More Pleasure. Have a BodyGasm.

Resources
My two favorite books:
Tantra Between the Sheets by Val Sampson
The Essential Tantra by Kenneth Ray Stubbs and Kyle Spencer

My favorite video:
A two-set by Margot Anand, the French-born and Sorbonne-bred lady who brought the old ancient Tantra tradition to America in a modern form: Secret Keys to the Ultimate Love Life.

My favorite educational Web site: Tantra.com

May your new year find you slowing down, vibing in and turning on with greater depth and pleasure.

Quickies

Monday, December 15th, 2008

We were in New York not long ago, and over an Italian dinner in Chelsea, a friend told us this story:

“Years ago, I was living down in the West Village with my boyfriend. We had an apartment on Bleecker Street between Christopher and Grove. One Saturday morning we were out grocery shopping. On the way home, climbing up the stairs, we got as far as the second floor. Suddenly we just dropped the grocery bags and did it right there in the hallway of our apartment building. Five minutes! And it was utterly invigorating.”

One Night StandIt struck us that December is a month filled with holiday parties, racing around, shopping, more parties, gift-wrapping, family dinners…did we say parties? When so much holiday activity is swirling around, it’s easy to forget to treat yourself.

Quickies are the perfect escape…and so invigorating, as our friend discovered that day in the hallway.

Give your sweetie a quickie this season, and you won’t regret it!

Need some inspiration? Check out the dykes in the red bathroom in One Night Stand.

Happy Hanukah! Merry Christmas! Enjoy your December!

Yours in good love and sex,

Nan & Christi

Finger Fucking

Wednesday, November 26th, 2008

The Crash Pad Series Volume 3Watching The Crash Pad Series Volume 3, this beautiful sex act is as relevant as ever. Not one scene goes by in the new Shine Louise Houston DVD without a good dose of the time-honored staple of dyke sex.

So on that note, we’re reposting this Sex Tips piece, which was originally published in the June 2006 newsletter.

Straight folks: If you haven’t tried it, don’t knock it.

Straight gals: Check out Bend Over Boyfriend for how to finger-fuck your boyfriend.

When we were younger, much younger, finger fucking could upon occasion produce major anxiety—were our nails clipped just so, no hangnails or raspy edges? Would she like it? Should we use a condom? Were there such things as “finger condoms”?

After exploring dozens if not hundreds of lesbian bodies, finger fucking seems as natural as kissing.

One of the best ways to get started is to go down on your girlfriend and lick her good. After she’s wet and open to you, gently ease your finger inside.

If you find you need some lube, the bottle should be next to the bed where you put it before you got all hot and horny with your girlfriend.

Full Load Butch-Butch Finger-FuckingSlowly explore the ridges—feel her G spot just inside and along the roof of her vagina? Don’t press it at this point, but if she’s bucking like a rodeo horse, go for it!

As she begins to respond to your finger inside her, you can quit with the cunnilingus—your neck is probably stiff by now anyway—and move up alongside her, and keep stroking her with one finger. You’ll find your rhythm.

Slide a second finger inside. She’ll let you know if she’s open to it. You can try a third finger too, but often, one or two fingers do the trick.

By now you may really need the lube, or not. If she’s wet enough, you may not.

(More sex tips about fisting.)

Many lesbians view finger fucking as a prelude to “real sex” with a strap-on dildo. But it can also be the finger-fucking that brings her right to her first orgasm.

If she likes to have multiple orgasms, then consider more stroking with your fingers or donning your strap-on.

We’re assuming here that you’re both lying down, but try sitting up behind her. You can play with her breasts and nipples, stroke the inside of her thighs and get off on feeling her leaning up against you.

Finger fucking her doggy-style—an act you probably like a lot—is another way to reach her G spot and let her spew.

Just remember: Don’t ram her too hard. Your fingers should be loosely curled around to her natural shape.

You can also ask her if she likes it. Be willing to ease up a little and look at her face, kiss her. Is she enjoying herself?

If you’re the one getting finger fucked, remember to talk to your partner and let her know what you like and what you don’t. You can just say, “That hurts” or “Too hard” or “Harder.”

You can also guide your partner’s hand toward or away from your vagina. Take her wrist and push or pull her where you want her.

You can also finger fuck each other at the same time, a delightful experience if you like mutual, concurrent sex.

Sex Tips: Learning to Enjoy the Bum

Wednesday, October 15th, 2008

No, we’re not talking about your lover! But your butt, your behind, your bum, your rear, your tush.

Enjoying anal penetration comes naturally to some people. They “get it.” They just naturally relax and enjoy without a care in the world.

But anal sex doesn’t come easy for everybody. There is the taboo of touching, let alone probing, the anus. It’s a private place, to be sure, which makes it hard for some men and women to allow entry.

When Fatale released Bend Over Boyfriend ten years ago – yes, it’s the 10th anniversary of Bend Over Boyfriend, a cause for celebration – Carol Queen and her lover Robert Morgan showed how role reversal can spice up your sex life.

Women, too, can be skittish when it comes to their boyfriends touching or penetrating their rear ends.

When you’re ready to open up and enjoy this delicious sex act, there are some steps you can take to make anal sex a real pleasure:

  • Wash up before you begin any lovemaking. Make sure nothing hurts or is sore down there. If you ever see blood in your stool or coming from your anus, tell your doctor right away.
  • –Find pleasure in the familiar. Make love the way you always do. Treat your sweetie with kisses and caresses and find your comfort zone. Have as many orgasms as you like.
  • –Touch yourself first. Do you feel happy? Talk to your lover. Do you want to feel your partner’s gentle touch? Tell him or her exactly what the touch feels like.
  • –Remind yourself: Nobody’s going to hurt you. This is not about pain. This is about pleasure and exploring new sexual territory.
  • –Stop there. Wait for next time to go any further.
  • –Next time, repeat the process all over again. Only this time, using some water-based lubricant, allow your lover’s finger to come inside just a little bit.
  • –Stop there. Wait until next time to go any further. You can even take a break and wait a couple more times before you try a small dildo, with a condom and lots of lube, of course.

And if your partner is the one who is struggling with anal sex, go slow, be gentle, restrain yourself until your partner feels confident to take it to the next level. 

Ultimately, learning to enjoy anal penetration is about trust. You must trust each other for there to be true pleasure associated with anal sex. Or, we would argue, any other kind of sex.
