The View From My Knees

In the next month or so I will be launching TWO new podcasts! I’ll post more details here when I have them, but for now I need your help in developing the best possible shows. Feel free to add your own reasons in the “Other” box and I encourage you to expand your thoughts in the comments section of this post. I’d also like to hear about your favorite sex podcasts.

This giveaway has ended. Stay tuned for next month’s giveaway!

It’s time for giveaway #3 in my year of giveaways. This month I’m giving away my own personal copy of The Adventures of a Lesbian College Schoolgirl. This sexy, adorable comic book, along with a pearl rabbit vibrator, was the first purchase I ever made from Babeland here in Seattle. And from that day forward, a beautiful retail relationship was formed. I’ve been buying the majority of my sex toys and supplies from this Seattle icon for over a dozen years.

For this month’s giveaway, I want to hear about your first experience at a porn store, sex boutique, or even online adult toy superstore in the comments section of this post. You can just tell me what you bought, or you can give me the entire story of your trip. One commenter will be chosen at random to receive the comic book, but if anyone tells an especially great story I’ll dig through my bag of prizes (that Babeland generously supplies) and send a little extra something to that person, as well. Entries from Twitter will also be counted (be sure to address your tweet to @herknees).

A winner will be chosen on Wednesday, February 8th.

It’s time for you to tell me your dirty little secrets, by answering this week’s poll. And don’t forget to leave me the dirty details in the comments.

This may seem like a mild poll, but it was sparked by a discussion on a mailing list where a gentleman asked what the most popular color of vibrator was. The ladies on the list (guess the guys were too shy) chimed in with a breakdown of their toy colors and it was very interesting to see that there was one clear color “winner.” I’m curious if this trend extends into the big, vast land of the internet. So now I’m asking you to dig into your toy box and crunch some numbers. What color are your vibrators?

And if you’re really feeling like sharing, feel free to leave us a breakdown of all of your different colors. I’ll be talking about mine on the next podcast when we discuss this poll.

This contest is closed. Keep an eye out for next month’s giveaway!

I promised you a whole year of giveaways, so it’s time for this month’s contest.

Let’s talk about sexual positions. If you believe the porn you watch, nobody does it missionary style anymore. It’s all doggy style, reverse cowgirl, and some crazy positions that don’t even have names but would most certainly put the average person in the emergency room. I’m not saying that I haven’t enjoyed exploring new positions, but over the years I’ve come to realize that my sexual preferences are pretty boring. I love the missionary position. Whether I’m with a man or a woman, I want that close, face to face contact. I want our chests pressed together. I want our pelvises to rub in that perfect way that brings me to orgasm with no help from a toy or hands. No, it’s not acrobatic, unusual, or kinky. It just feels so fucking good.

Now it’s your turn. What’s your favorite sexual position? Tell me about it in the comments of this post and one random commenter will be chosen to receive a copy of Kama Sutra: An Intimate Photographic Guide to the Arts of Love. Entries submitted via Twitter (include @herknees in your response) will also be counted.

Winner will be chosen on Sunday, January 8th.

Have you ever noticed that little “Safe for work” link on all of my posts? It’s time for me to figure out if this is a valuable part of my site that is worth improving. You can help by answering a couple of small questions:
