Breast Cancer Photo Shoot....
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in women today (after lung cancer) and is the most common cancer among women, excluding non-melanoma skin cancers. According to the American Cancer Society, about 1.3 million women will be diagnosed with breast cancer annually worldwide and about 465,000 will die from the disease.
Estimated new cases and deaths from breast cancer in the United States in 2009:
New cases: 192,370 (female); 1,910 (male)
Deaths: 40,170 (female); 440 (male)
You can make a difference by supporting the many organizations that donate proceeds to breast cancer research. A partial list follows:

On Saturday, a few Chicago ladies are all sitting for a photoshoot to benefit breast cancer research.
Included:
Bebedoll
Charlotte Sweetheart/Babylon Drifter
Paige
Sinful Sinthia
The photographer, Peter Bruce, was born in Australia and now makes his home with his wife and two daughters in San Francisco.
He has been active with various charities over the years including providing clothing for homeless children.
After completing a 3 day breast cancer walk, he decided to put his talents to helping to find a cure. He is travelling across the country taking photos of women's breasts for inclusion in a black and white coffee table book.
"Subject photos will be anonymous, with only nude breasts shown in the photographs for this project. No faces or bodies will be revealed in the book. We are seeking all cup sizes, ages and ethnicities. The project is NOT pornographic in nature; however, you will be required to sign an intellectual property waiver and must be 18+. We need at least 400 subjects."
While the Chicago Shoot is filled up, he is still touring and may be at a city near you. If you are interested in learning more, purchasing the book or in participating in a photo shoot, please visit Peter's Site. A portion of the proceeds will go directly to support breast cancer research.
And ladies, don't forget the importance of regular screening...

A Survey For The Men Who Read These Blogs...
According to psychologists, men need visual stimulation in order to become aroused...
I'm sure most of the ladies on this board will agree. Whether is the man's decision about the lady he would like to visit, based upon her photos and her ethnicity, body type or hair color, or a man's particular clothing requests.
For fun, I put together a quick survey and am asking that the "gentlemen" who read this blog participate by answering a few questions about their preferences. All answers are kept confidential and are limited to the first 100 responders.
The survey covers everything from preferences in legwear, shoes, lingerie and mood.
Of course, I will share the results with all of the gentlemen and the ladies once the survey is completed.

If every day were Valentines Day…
It amazes me that it takes certain holidays to instill social consciousness.. In our busy lives, it takes these days to remind us of the things that should mean the most to us.
If every day was Christmas, we would spend 365 days a year living the spirit of Christmas. People would be happier and have more hope. They would greet their fellow humans on the street with kindness. They would find charity in their hearts and goodwill towards their fellow men. They would do something nice for their neighbors, remember their friends with cards and letters and volunteer to help the less fortunate. We would remember our troops who are abroad and send care packages to them.
If every day was Thanksgiving, we would spend 365 days being thankful for the many blessings in our lives. We would look at the our blessings rather than concentrate on what was lacking. We would remember the blessing of having friends and family who love us. We would remember that we live in a country where we have individual freedoms, not shared by other nations, and know that, while not perfect, America is a wonderful place to live.
If every day were Mother’s Day, we would not take for granted the love of a mother. We would thank our mother’s daily for the love and support that they provided us throughout our youth and their patience and understanding. We would remember to call our mothers more often and let them know how much we love and care for them and how their love has enriched our lives. We would cherish our mother’s memories when they pass and be thankful for their guidance in our lives.
If every day were Father’s Day, we would be thankful for all that our father’s have done for us in our lives. We would remember our father returning home from a hard day at work and still making time to sit with us and talk and find out about our lives. We would remember our father throwing the ball and playing catch with us. Of his pride when we graduated high school and then college. We would remember that sometimes stoic figure who kept many of his emotions masked, as that was how many fathers were, but whose pride in our accomplishments we grew to understand.
If every day was Veteran’s Day, we would never forget the brave men and women who serve our country to keep it safe. We would never forget the soldiers who gave their lives for our country and who were willing to protect our country and our liberties.
If every day was Valentine’s Day, we would remember to show love to our family and friends. We would keep romance alive in our hearts and minds. We would never take for granted the love of the people around us and would return that love with thoughtful gestures and kindness. This would include our lovers, our children, our parents and dear friends. We would bring flowers, candy and buy cards for our loved ones unexpectedly and for no other reason than to say I love you.
If every day was New Years, we would make those resolutions that would help us to put our lives on the right track. We would think of every day as a fresh new start and a chance to put the past behind us. We would take stock and plan new courses for our lives and come up with a plan of action to improve our lives and reach our goals.
Yesterday was Valentine’s Day. A day that many of us spent time out at dinner with our loved ones, buying flowers, candy and cards. But, if tomorrow was also Valentines Day, and the next day, and the next day… we would remember to keep love alive and show the people we love how much we care.
Lets try to keep the holidays, each and every one of them, alive in our hearts all year long.
