The Male Chastity Lifestyle and Your Emotions

A common misapprehension about the male chastity lifestyle is it’s about just two things: sex and submission. And while this may well be the main concern for some people, in my experience, both in my own life and with men and women I’ve spoken to about this, the truth is usually somewhat different. There’s no doubt most relationships when they settle down to the nitty-gritty of real, mundane life experience a marked reduction in sexual activity, both in terms of frequency and duration. What’s more, our sheer, naked lust tends to tail off so, unless we make a concerted effort for it to be otherwise, we become generally less adventurous, too. In some couples sex actually becomes, in the words of many a woman, “a chore“.

Sex!

Now, it’d be a mistake to think that simply having more sex is the answer. It can be, to be sure, but even this is harder than it sounds. Having hot, bed-breaking, mattress-splitting sex when you’re “making” yourself do it hoping to boot-strap things is no mean feat. And this is where the male chastity lifestyle can make a real difference, although not necessarily just for the reasons you might think. It’s true your man is going to be hornier because he’s having fewer orgasms. Not only that, but because he’s having to please you in other ways, he’s going to be even hornier than he’d be if he was just deprived of his orgasms (you won’t believe how turned on your man is going to get when he’s pleasing you with his tongue, and the knowledge his own orgasm is not on the cards is in the forefront of his mind).

But the real benefit and the reason you hear all the stories about how loving, attentive and lustful your man becomes is the emotions it sparks in both of you. You see, what you’re doing, among other things, is recapturing the early-days’ intimacy. That in turn ramps up all those yummy emotions: love, attraction, warmth, fun, and all the rest of it.

Submission!

The second part of the common misapprehension is submission. Not all men become submissive when they embrace the male chastity lifestyle. Some do, of course, and some women like that. But in my experience, again, most men don’t, which is just as well because most women don’t like it. What we do like is a man who’s considerate, confident, loving, caring and attentive but without being weak, pestering and like a big, spoiled child. Most unattractive, right, girls?

Now, a woman’s emotions tend to be more complex than a man’s. And when you first embrace the male chastity lifestyle they can be very fragile and changeable because you’re not quite sure what to expect. On the one hand, you’re perhaps nervous: despite reading this article, despite your partner’s assurances, you’re still not sure he’s not a bit… weird. Let’s be honest. It’s all new to you, for all you know it means massive change, and you’re not 100% certain where the male chastity lifestyle is going to end up taking you both.

Yet then there’s the sheer power of your femininity!

Yes, that power rush. The same one you got when you first realised the Power of the Little Black Dress when you walked a certain way past the men who couldn’t keep their eyes off you… well, it’s like that again. When you’ve got your man worked up into such a state he doesn’t know his up from his down and he’s begging and pleading with you to be allowed to orgasm, and you know he’s not going to get mad or sulky when you say “NO!“, because it’s something he’s begged you to do to him, then you feel that rush of power.

And you can feel a bit guilty, a bit naughty, like you’ve done something you shouldn’t, like you’re enjoying something exquisitely “naughty” no “nice girl” would ever dream of. You can’t stop that feeling from sneaking up on you, but you can decide what to do about it, how to react. And the best way to react?

Enjoy it. Revel in it.

Because this hot, emotional rush is one of the major unspoken-about benefits of the male chastity lifestyle… and once you’ve tried it, you won’t want to go back to the old way of living ever again… and nor will your man.

The Joys of Self Employment

It used to be that the overwhelming majority of individuals spent their entire careers working for larger organizations. However, with the number of corporations that went through the phase of downsizing in the last twenty years, many individuals were introduced to the world of self employment. The self employed now make up nearly ten percent of the workforce and is growing each year. The opportunity to be self employed offers a great many challenges to those who take it. It is quite common for individuals who are accustomed to working for others to at first be caught off guard by the demands of being self employment. Nonetheless, those who are willing to work through these differences can make themselves a satisfying career.When many think of self employment, they often think of the freedom to set one’s own hours or working from a home office their pajamas. While this is somewhat true, there are also times when self employment means long hours. Individuals who choose this method of employment need to be self motivated, goal oriented and comfortable with being the sole decision maker. They are responsible for making sure their own Social Security and Medicare taxes are paid and they must also file quarterly taxes. At the same time, they have great freedom to take things in any direction they see fit and many of their expenses are tax deductible.Before jumping into the role of the self employed worker, one should study up on as many resources as possible. Books, websites, seminars and workshops are readily available for those seeking information. There are many aspects to learn about self employment, from how to deal with the isolation of the work at home office to legally collecting past due debts. These resources also show how to lessen tax burdens and how to keep expenses to a minimum until real profits start coming in. Joining groups and organizations for the self employed is a great way to stay connected and get firsthand tips and advice.While there are no rules, it is said that older individuals are more likely to choose self employment and stick with it. Their years of experience and knowledge give them a bit of an edge when it comes to the ups and downs that self employment can sometimes bring. At the same time, younger individuals are more likely to be able to put in the longer hours that being self employed sometimes requires. At any rate, the option of being one’s own boss is becoming more and more attractive with the shifting job market.

Using Video To Market Your Business

Why Video?

Video is a big deal these days. Yet many businesses do not use it at all. Using video to market your business is a great opportunity. Part of the reason it’s a great opportunity is that so many people who could benefit from it are not using it! Much of your competition is not using video!

Video is a great online marketing tool. Many people would rather watch how something is done than read copy from their computer screens.

When you know the routine it’s easy to create videos. The process has a few tricks to maximize results. But it’s relatively quick and easy once you get the hang of it.

Video and Search Engines

When we talk about online video we have to talk about YouTube. YouTube is the largest video website in the world. YouTube videos are uploaded at a rate an astonishing rate. It is estimated that 60 hours of video are uploaded every minute! The site is growing fast.

Google often shows videos listed among their search results. They call this “Universal Search”. Many times there are just one or two among the 10 results listed on a page. But wow do those they stand out. Even if a video is listed at the bottom of the search page it seems to attract more attention than all the other text-only listings. Having your video on a search results page can be a great advantage.

Creating Your Video

Making your own video is easier than it’s ever been before. Thanks to the many choices of cameras and easy to use websites you can begin making videos right away.

Many smart phones can record videos. This is the handiest way to do it since you always have your phone with you. To get better quality you should use a camcorder. Digital camcorders are common and do not require tape or disks. They are easy to use. Copying video to your computer is easier too!

There are numerous resources and video tips online to help you with the creation of your videos. The biggest tip is to use an external microphone or separate digital audio recorder to get good sound. If you don’t try this you won’t even realize the difference it can make. Getting good sound really does add a lot of quality. Lighting is another obvious concern. For indoor videos you should have plenty of lights. Outdoor lighting is best on shady days because shadows can be tricky to control.

Editing Your Video

You can get by without editing your video. But if you want it to be a bit more polished then using a video editor will do the trick. Many editors are available in the under $100 range. I’ve used Corel Video Studio for several years. Other editors in the same price range include CyberLink PowerDirector, Adobe Premiere Elements, Roxio Creator, and Sony Vegas Movie Studio. Check the web for a review of video editor software. With a video editor you can easily cut out unwanted pieces of video, add music and narration, and add on screen titles. After editing you will end up with a polished version of your video. This is the version that will be ready to upload to the internet. I usually create videos in the MP4 format, then upload them to YouTube.

Getting Your Video Online

As mentioned in the previous paragraph I use YouTube. You must set up a YouTube account before you upload your videos to it. I recommend creating a Google account and using that account when signing up for your YouTube account. You’ll have one Google login that will get you into all of your Google products. Once your YouTube account is set up you should create your YouTube channel. Fill it in with all of your business information as completely and accurately as possible.

Use a video aggregator to publish your video to multiple video sites at one time. I don’t use aggregators but many internet marketers do.

I recommend putting your website URL (“http://www.yourwebsite.com”) in the description of your YouTube video. Also put the link to the YouTube video into your YouTube video description. The reason is that some websites copy videos from YouTube and display them on their own website. This helps optimize your Video and can generate more traffic as it gives you a back link.

Integrate Video on Your Website

After you’ve uploaded your video to YouTube the next step is to integrate the video in your website and other online properties. The video below shows how this is done. YouTube makes it very easy to embed videos on your website. Google places and other online business directories make it easy to include video within your business listings too.

More Reasons to Use Video

Besides that benefits of generating more leads for your business, video can make a much more personal connection between you and your potential customers. So much of the Internet is impersonal. There is a big lack of trust online, and rightfully so. To get customers and do business you must build a trusting relationship with your customers. Video can get this done faster than most things. I always recommend a simple, short welcome message on a website home page. One that greets the visitor and makes them feel welcome. Here’s more video tips that will help with your video creation.
