Ignacio defines sex, gender, gender identity/expression/attribution, sexual orientation and identity, as well as transgender and queer. Then they talk pronouns: They challenge society’s assumption of the gender binary (e.g., only using she, he, her, him, his, hers) and offers several gender neutral pronoun options (e.g., the singular they, them, their; hir, ze, zie). Ignacio acknowledges the complexities yet encourages both practice and ways to determine the pronouns acceptable to the person in question.

Using both personal experience and an understanding of the vast diversity of others’ experiences, they highlight the vital import of naming body parts and talking about such names with your partner(s). Since terminology varies considerably, it is critical to understand your partners’ feelings about their bodies; and understanding leads to good negotiation, connection, and fun!

They continues the transqueering your sex series with a comparison of fantasy and reality. They asks many questions to help spur self-reflection and increase self-awareness. Ignacio also helps with the conversation and negotiation with persons outside the gender binary.

As British “Lucky” Paul states, “Aftercare can make a good scene great, and great scene go wrong” and so he’s here to share some helpful thoughts on pre-planning to ensure that aftercare is not an ‘after-thought’.

Since everyone’s aftercare needs are different and both tops and bottoms need aftercare, it follows that they may not always be able to provide aftercare for each other. Lucky Albatross presents a solution in part two: using a different person who is better equipped and can be trusted to give the aftercare that is needed for either party. She talks about how best to communicate and provide for the different needs and also some strategies in case you have to do without.

Kitty Stryker discusses various aspects of aftercare in part three: the logistics, different desires, necessities, communication/negotiation, and more. She offers many practical tips to help improve your post-sexual experiences with your partner(s).

Experiencing the intense physical and psychological sensations and energy exchange of kinky scenes can leave the individuals feeling a wide range of emotions when it’s all over.

Annie enthusiastically shares that Being the object of desire for a powerful man is quite a trip.
