This also marks the first time I am making an induction without creating the entire thing. Usually I make my own music, but, to be honest, I’m not terribly good at music.  I’d rather leave that to the professionals.  This song is kind of special to me and very old, nearly 30 years old, so I’m going to give it a shot.

I’m hoping to make this in line with the “Lose Yourself” inductions and the “Church of UO” inductions.

Stay tuned.  :-)

And I know a lot of people feel that Hugh Hefner “exploited” women, but I feel that he did a lot for the empowerment of women. We are not talking porn here, I am talking about women who choose to pose for more artsy nudes. And Playboy always promoted women’s rights and equality. (As well as a whole bunch of other people’s rights and equality.) So I think that Playboy is one of the more reputable and trustworthy brands out there.

That’s one reason why I subscribe to the magazine. I mean, yes, they have naked women in it, and…okay, that’s a great draw…but if I wanted real real porn, I’d subscribe to Hustler or something. I happen to like and, yes, respect Playboy. And yes, I do read the articles. Do I always agree with them? Of course not. But I still like and respect the magazine and the Playboy brand.

Now I’ll admit that on a personal level, I’ve always wanted to go to a Playboy Club. I can remember wanting to go to one, just for one night, just to say “I’ve been to a Playboy Club”, since I first saw an issue. I knew that the women didn’t do anything other than be waitresses in cute bunny outfits, I knew that there it was basically a glorified high-end bar, but I wanted to go to one. All through high school and college, I knew where they were: Chicago, Los Angeles, New York and Boston. There wasn’t one in Washington DC, which is where I was near. But around 1983, I moved from Westminster, Maryland to Boston. The VERY FIRST THING I did was go to where the Playboy Club’s location. Unfortunately, I arrived too late. Meaning, I arrived after they had closed down the club. It was recent, too, because the map of the subway stop where it was still showed the location. So I was disappointed that I had missed the chance to say “I’ve been there.”

However, back in 2004, Playboy hosted a bunch of parties across the country and one of the stops was here in Hartford. I did get to go to that. So I have been to something like a Playboy Club. Also, there is one Playboy Club still opened in Las Vegas. 

Also, even though I’ve never been to a club, I have, in fact, been quoted in Playboy! I have the issue at home and I don’t remember what issue (I’ll have to find it, it was several years ago and in the Reader’s Response section.) But they have actually taken a part of a reply to an article they posted.

So even though I can’t say “I’ve been to a Playboy Club”, I can say “I’ve been quoted in Playboy Magazine.” And personally, I think that’s cooler.

Anyways, because I like and respect the brand and because of the lead actress’ interview, I thought I should give the show a try.  As I said, it wasn’t ground-breaking or anything. It was a mystery-drama-soap opera than anything else. Strip away the Playboy Club setting and it could be stuck in any kind of bar, really.

But since it was Playboy, it caught me. And, again, since it was Playboy, it caught the attention of a whole bunch of other people. Like “The Parents Television Council”, “Morality In Media”, The San Francisco Commission on the Status of Women” and Gloria Steinem all who demanded that NBC remove the show on the basis of a) it’s pornographic and bad for children (claims of the first two organizations), and b) it demeans women (claims from the other two).  So these groups have been protesting heavily calling for the cancellation of this series.

And it was canceled after the third episode. Not because of these people, but because the ratings were poor. As I said, it was just a stupid soap opera, and if the Playboy logo wasn’t on it, it would just be another canceled series. But because of the name, it’s a big deal and one that organization like “The Parents Television Council” will show off as a “victory”. 

THAT’S what bothers Me. 

I can’t stand anyone who wants to cancel a show simply because it includes nudity and/or sexuality is “evil” or “demeaning” or “exploitative”. Sex can be those things, depending on how it’s used. But then, you can say the same for religion. 

For example, I have known a lot of people who use religion to scare people into doing what they define as “right”. Marriage between homosexual people is banned, not because of anything legal, but because of the prejudice. That prejudice is justified by the religious people claiming that it is evil because their book told them it is. That, to me, is exploitative and demeaning. More so than any television show about the Playboy Club. 

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying all religion is exploitative or demeaning, it just that, in a case like homosexual marriage, or even trying to get this simple little show off the air, the use of religion is. Especially to people who are really religious and whom understand that their religion, morals and views do not agree with others. That makes the real majority, the ones who can accept and understand different views, even if they do not agree with them, look bad.

The Playboy industry understood that. They did not censor, in fact, part of the naked women in their magazine was a statement that even if a woman chooses to use her sexuality, it is her choice, despite what others may think of her. That’s not a popular statement nowadays, but it is still true. There are men who still use their own sexuality for their own gains. Yet, no one says boo about that.

The basic point is sex and sexuality is part of who we are as humans. You can choose not to explore it in yourself and others, you can choose to explore it to the hilt or, as most people tend to do, they explore their sex and sexuality somewhere in between. But the point is that whether you are repulsed by it or can’t resist it, it is human. And we as Americans have to right to explore it any way we can without infringing on the rights of others.

You don’t like a show? Turn off the television. You don’t like a book? Don’t buy it. You don’t like a game? Don’t play it. I don’t even mind you telling others what you think.

But don’t force others not to watch, or read, or play something because you don’t like it.

So fine, this show is taken off the air.   But to these organizations who think that they are keeping “decency” alive, I have a message for you:

You failed.  You did not force the show off the air.  Lack of ratings did.  All you really did do was point fingers at what you thought was “indecent”.  But remember that when you point a finger at someone, three of your own fingers are pointing back at you.

I am happy to announce that the Church of the UO website is now open and ready.

What is the Church of the UO? Well, go to the website and find out.

I want this to be completely interactive.  Please join in and add to it or, if you want, just experience what is being done.  I hope to make this a very active, very interactive experience.

Enjoy!

I’m very excited about this project and I hope to deliver something that a lot of hypno-fetishist will love and participate in.

Sorry for the delay, and thanks for being patient with me.

On to hypnosis.  (Which is another project).  As I said in my last blog, I am currently building a fantasy.  It has turned into something much bigger than I had expected.  This is actually a good thing.  It may take longer to put it together, but it will be more complete and interactive.  I will be releasing more and more bit by bit, hoping that readers will add to it with suggestions and ideas.

So, in order give myself some inspiration to get this up, I’m setting myself a goal:  The first “bit” I will release will be by July 8th.

And if I miss this deadline, feel free to complain to me.  :-)

Thanks again for reading and enjoy.

I’m also actively looking for new models.  Those of you who know me know that I used to feature Shandra.  We still are in contact and good friends, but sadly, she doesn’t want to do porn anymore.  So I’m looking for new models.

There is a new project I’m working on which I hope will be open enough for everyone interested to add to.  I’m still working on the basics, but I can tell you it involves a fantasy that you can experience yourself or as a couple and it can be one of those fantasies that will not interfere with your real life, but will be there always.  So those of you who love to have “dirty little secrets” while out in public and in real life can have something safe to experience.

That’s all for now.  More to come.  Thanks for reading.

Well, I’m “rebooting” (Damn, I hate that word.  It’s so overused but I have to admit, it’s appropriate to this situation) this site again. I know I keep restarting some ideas but I don’t seem to follow through all the way. It seems like there’s never enough time. And with television and the internet, etc, there seems to be a lot of distractions too.
(For example, this is my second time typing this. The first time was interrupted and some of it erased by a power failure).
Well, I’m going to embark on this again.
And with a way to blog, I get to rant, which I tend to do. A lot. (Usually verbally but I type fast!) So you may see me blog here quite a bit, but I have to warn you. I may be off topic. A lot. To be honest, there’s no day-to-day updates and news with erotic mind control like there is with topics like BDSM or sex in general. So a lot of my blogs will be about things that could be about erotic mind control but go all the way to really off of left field, like something personal.
I have to warn you, I am a very passionate person who loves to debate, (please do not confuse debate with argue. There’s a big difference.) so I will get…err…. feisty, but never impolite.
Also, I don’t expect a lot of readers, so to you future few people who read my blogs and (HOLY COW! ACTUALLY COMMENT ON THEM!) Thank you in advance, even the people who disagree with me.
One last thing, if I do get people on here, I only ask to please try to be polite.
Thanks for reading and welcome to Deep-Trances. Again….for the fifth time or so….
