<title>Can A Straight Woman And A Lesbian Woman Be Friends?</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>That's like asking if a guy and girl can have a platonic friendship, isn't it? The question is given the possibility of a sexual/romantic connection, can a relationship exist even without it?<br />

<title>The Vagina Dialogues - 2</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>My <a target="_blank" href="http://twitter.com/ideasmithy/statuses/850668439">last tweet</a> reads:<br />
<blockquote>Ever get the feeling you've said all there is to say? That's NOT where I am. I feel like nothing I can say now can top what I already said.</blockquote><br />
Let me try anyway. It's not going to be pretty or classy or well-written. There are just too many thoughts running around in my mind and crash-boom-landing into each other.</p>

<p>I wrote <a target="_blank" href="http://theideasmithy.com/the-vagina-dialogues/">this post</a> last week. Of course you know that, you were there. For the first time on this blog, I've felt like I wasn't alone, speaking out to a vast vacuum with no idea of where my words and ideas were landing, who was picking them up and what they were turning them into. Not any more. You were there with me, reading, re-living my experience and comforting me.<br />
<p align="center">~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~</p><br />

<title>The Vagina Dialogues</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Eight years after hearing about it for the first time, I finally watched <strong><em><a target="_blank" href="http://www.amazon.com/Ensler-Eve-The-Vagina-Monologues/dp/B001BG7CR6/ref=sr_1_16?ie=UTF8&amp;s=home-garden&amp;qid=1214563085&amp;sr=8-16">The Vagina Monologues</a></em></strong>. Wish me a happy birthday since I'm being reborn. On second thoughts, don't say a word. Just listen as we speak - my vagina and I.</p>]]></description>

<title>Blossoms In The Snow (Part 1)</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><img alt="images.jpg" src="http://www.isitaboutsexblog.com/archives/images.jpg" width="150" height="113" /></p>

<p>Recently an event in my life started me contemplating compassion and this phrase popped into my mind- blossoms in the snow! The image was apt, complete and lyrical enough to embrace a state which is as rare as it is beautiful, as precious as it seems to defy the laws of samsara.</p>]]></description>

<title>Soaring, Searching the &apos;Glass Ceiling&apos; by Princess Baatcheet</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>There is a very old adage, “Being a woman in a man’s world”. For the longest time I couldn't figure out whether it was a derogatory statement or a compliment to women. But now I know that what it actually means is that women are just contract workers in an establishment run and managed by men. <br />

<title>The billionaires</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>"Aren't you going?" I asked incredulously.</p>

<p>" No," my friend replied. </p>

<p>" But you worship him as God. You should be visiting him on his birthday celebrations" I persisted.</p>

<p>"There will be tremendous rush. It is not worth it." he replied again.</p>

<p>"But isnt that the test of devotion?" I queried.</p>

<p>"Perhaps..." was my friend's noncommital reply.</p>]]></description>

<title>Saawariya- Two thumbs up :)</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>You might wonder what a die hard Shah Rukh Fan like me is doing by writing a review of Saawariya and not Om Shanti Om,...for doesnt it mean that I ended up watching the former first?</p>

<p>Yes it does.</p>

<p>And I have my reasons.</p>

<p>'Reason' would be more appropriate.</p>]]></description>

<title>Bhai Nei - Part Two by Princess Baatcheet</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><br />
 Spread the thread of love<br />
 <br />
I asked several people who don’t have a brother, what Rakhi meant to them. Someone said she always tied a Rakhi to her father cause she was under his protection. Some other stories actually revealed that Rakhi was being totally molded and used as a social tool to get a lot of things; favors, gifts or even liberty. </p>]]></description>
