The V-Spot: Can My Clit Learn to Trust Again?
If we can relate a sneeze to an orgasm in the ways they hijack our bodies in an involuntary release, I can’t point to many people who can sneeze on command whilst their partner stares at them in excited anticipation of the big kerchoo and your orgasm isn’t much different.

Things to do this week.
Stagestruck: Plain Jane
Jane Eyre may be the most-adapted of 19th-century English novels, with dozens of film and TV renditions. But stage versions can do something the book does that screen versions don’t. Charlotte Bronte’s narrative is in the voice of Jane herself, and so is the play now at Hartford Stage.
Spring Arts Preview 2020
Spring is in the air. Sort of. In some ways, after a snowy start, it has felt that winter didn’t come at all. But with clocks about to change to Daylight Savings (on Sunday, March 8!) it’s time to come out of our shells and check out a good show or museum.
Cinemadope: Toon in — animation for the late-night crowd

Stagestruck: Facts & Fancies

Basemental: Jesus Vio brings his ‘Dutch Science’ to the Pioneer Valley
The short video, a mere minute and 40 seconds, evokes a Where’s Waldo kind of style; where instead of Waldo being the variable to identify, it’s the location where Vio (wearing a different outfit in each location) is dancing.
The V-Spot: Tying to Get Kinky
Hi Yana, My girlfriend and I are in college and we’ve done some like really, really basic BDSM: blindfolding, a little handcuffs, and some bondage stuff, but nothing serious. Now we want to do some tying down. What would you suggest? — Tie-Guy Dear Tie-Guy, Like a bad...
