Experience love, sex, and intimacy as you've never imagined it. 

That’s what Ian Kerner, Ph.D. dares you to do, in his just-published book, Sex Detox - and I’m giving away a spankin’ new copy here.


The second half of Kerner’s book is “The Singles’ Detox,” is a step-by-step plan to “improve your self-awareness, self-esteem, and ability to achieve long-term fulfillment.” I’m following Kerner’s Detox plan right now, and I’ll let you know how it goes (whew, this guy is working me!).

One of my favorite quotes by Kerner so far is: “Just because we treat sex lightly doesn’t mean sex will treat us lightly in return.”


Right on, don’t you think?


Kerner writes
, “Which set of terms most accurately describes your feelings towards dating?”


For a chance to win Sex Detox, tell me your feelings towards dating right now.


Here is a sample of adjectives. Please pick the category — A, B, or C — that fits you and write in your own adjectives to match “your current emotional state:”


A. Fun, exciting, optimistic, energizing, engaging, exhilarating, sex, imaginative, comforting, relaxing, flirtatious, empowering, naughty, titillating


B. Tedious, stressful, aggravating, frustrating, disappointing, annoying, upsetting, exasperating, addictive


C. Detached, boring, indifferent, pointless, empty, vapid, uninspiring, same ol ’same ol’, predictable


Ready, set, go…  Choose one category above and then expand on it.

And here are the winners of the spunky, fast read Naked on the Page, by Jane Ganahl — picked by Ms. Sassy Mae:


1. Bad Home Cook, the single mom of two kids who wrote that her boyfriend was playing a gig (on his flamenco guitar) “at the Playboy Mansion for its pre-Valentine’s day party… under the lustful eye of the Bunny events coordinator, who’s been obsessed with him for three years now, ever since they dated briefly. Great. Great. Great.”


Inquiring minds want to know: Did he step up to the plate on Valentine’s Day… for YOU?


2. And Judy had planned to leave an anonymous Valentine for the bartender she was crushing on. (”I have time to visit his bar, have a quick drink and leave the valentine unsigned.”)


Do tell: Did you do it?

"...dating..." - Oh come on, let's not be so chilly... ;-) Besides, some of us that do tend to drag our knuckles on the solid oak hardwood floors do have redeeming values: we clean up our beer stained clothing in our stainless steel LG washer and dryer quite well... Ahhh... I guess I will have to do a pizza delivery to the laudromat... ;-p

I'll choose:
B. Tedious, stressful, aggravating, frustrating, disappointing, annoying, upsetting, exasperating, addictive
I'm uninterested in dating for the most part. Sure, seeing a movie would be dreamy but really, when I think of dating, this is exactly how I feel.
