Demystifying the Male- 29
NOTE: all of Ramrod's answers will be down in the comments :) I'm campin' and my phone isn't copy/paste friendly.
Do you have a length of hair preference on a woman? Long and pulled back in a ponytail? Short and spiky? Long and left down?
Vile: It actually depends on my mood. sometime ago I had Arianna's hair cut real short the right side was almost shaved while the other side parted over and had bangs. Now it is growing back out, and will soon have a pony tail. I love pulling hair during sex, doggy style or maybe a little face fucking nice to have something to hold onto.
Jose: Length of hair is no biggie for me. They style, color, length have to look right on a lady. So females are sexy with certain styles while some just look dumb as hell trying lol.
What's your go to comfort food genre? Salty? Sweet? Crunchy?
Vile: I am going to say salty unless your speaking about eating pussy then something bad is wrong. I prefer Chinese food which is very salty and you end up drinking three gallons of water after.
Again if your eating at the Y and it is salty um RUN.
Jose: Salty & Crunchy (hot) i think lol. I never thought of it. I go to popcorn (add some hot sauce), hot Cheetos or some type chips lol. For quick comfort lol
What do you prefer passive or aggressive behavior from your partner in bed? By aggressive I mean scratching, pulling hair a little, generally letting the beast out. LOL And passive doesn't mean layin' there like a log. It's more the gentle side of things.
Vile: Well being in a Master and Slave relationship, I will say passive, and your correct that does not include laying there like a log. Passive to me seems really normal, I have never really gave it much thought.
I believe most men prefer a passive partner, someone who will just kinda go with the flow of things. This does not mean their needs should not be taking care of, most of the time it is one sided. So keeping your woman satisfied is very important. If you don't eat the monkey billy boy next door will, thats when the salty taste comes in. eeewww
Jose: I like her more aggressive than passive! I need to know you want it just as bad as i do! Take control evert once in a while! Don't get me wrong i don't want a female trying tko in bed tho haha. Its cool to be passive couple times a week.

Tattoo Tuesday- Matty Ort
Welcome
Matty Ort
to Tattoo Tuesday
Give me four sentences that sum you up: what you do, who you are, where you've been...
My name is Matty Ort (AKA Matty Boy), I am from Denver, Colorado and currently live in Phoenix, Arizona. I work in the HVAC field, and just recently started doing some tattoo and fitness modeling. When I'm not at work, at the gym or taking care of my two Rottweilers, I like to have fun and live in the moment, and my tattoos help tell my story.
What was your first tattoo? Does it have meaning to you?
My first tattoo was my iron cross on my right arm. I got the idea from a “No Fear” shirt that my brother gave me when I was young. I wore that thing everywhere.
Do you have any that you regret getting?
I wouldn't say that I regret any of my tattoos. I have a grim reaper on my leg that I had gotten to support “Red Sky Tattoo” in Castle Rock, CO. It doesn't really fit my personality, but I feel like I helped support a very promising artist that became one of my best friends and actually ended up tattooing a majority of my body.
Do you have more tats planned?
That's a silly question. Of course I have plans on getting more. I wouldn't say I have them all planned out, because like I said before, I like to live in the moment and tattooing has become a lifestyle.
Do you buy into tattoos being addictive once you start getting them?
I started out getting tattooed when I was sixteen years old, and now I'm 26 and still have yet to stop. I think tattoos are an awesome way of telling the story of your life and what you represent. I wouldn't say all my tattoos have meaning, but I remember that point in time and what I was doing in my life when I got them done. I think everyone has their own reason why they get “addicted” to tattoos, that is mine.
What's your life plans for the immediate future? Long-term?
I've never been the kind of person to make plans, but I'd never let an opportunity to better myself pass me by. I feel like everyone has a path that ultimately was chosen for them, and that if something is meant to be it will happen. As far as long term goes, I want to be an inspiration to people. I want people to look at me and say “Because of you I didn't give up”.
What's something about yourself that most people don't know?
I think most people see me as a “Bad Boy”, and are pretty surprised to find out that I have a “Country Boy” side to me.
If you were a superhero, what would your power be? Your weakness?
If I were a Super Hero, my Super Power would be controlling time. Being able manipulate time by either speeding forward, going back or stopping it. My weakness would be that my Super Power would fade away as I aged.
Favorite TV show or station?
I don't watch much tv now a days. But when I was younger I used to love watching “Fresh Prince of Bel air”. I've always been a fan of Will Smith.
What's your 'go to' comfort item (food, place, drink, etc)?
My go to comfort zone would be going to the Gym and getting tattooed. I use working out to relieve stress, its my time where I don't have to answer to anyone. Getting tattooed kind of does the same thing for me.
If there were no $ or time limitations, where would you be right now and what would you be doing?
As long as I was doing something that I love, in a stress free environment, I really would be happy no matter what.
Do you enjoy reading? Who's your fav author, or your fav type of book (suspense, mystery, biography, paranormal, etc)?
I actually do not enjoy reading, but I would have to say as far as authors go I have always liked Stephen King.

Sensual Saturday- 'Byte Marks'
Welcome to Sensual Saturday...
Byte Marks: Fated Mates, Inc. Series
Blurb:
Fated Mates, Incorporated- The premiere dating service company. They promise to find that perfect someone within three pairings.
Liz stepped into the waiting room for Fated Mates, Inc with trepidation. Driven to the dating service by her meddling family, she walks in hoping for something but expecting nothing. What she received was a chance encounter with a hunky tattooed man. Byte happens to be interviewing for his first date assignment as well.
A building-wide power failure causes a lockdown that throws them together and the sparks fly.
Sexy Snippet:
Warm lips brushed against her neck, surprising her. She hummed at the sensation and stilled enough to catch his head in her hands. “Wait. Let me take this off.” With shaking fingers she stripped off her shirt. She needed to feel his skin against hers. Warm, moist breath feathered over her, raising goose bumps down her arms. She sighed. “Better.”
Byte sucked lightly above one breast and flicked his tongue against the skin. He blew lightly over the moisture and she shivered. She started rocking against him again, brushing her throbbing clit against the fabric separating their pelvises. He unhooked the front of her bra and thumbed both nipples. She cried out. The slight roughness against her sensitive nubs sent jolts of pleasure to her pussy. Her wet panties were soaked again and increased the friction as she ground down.
“Come for me, sweet Lizzy.” His words skated like a hot caress...

Demystifying the Male- 28
Well, we've been gone for a couple of weeks but we're back to normal Demystifying the Male goodness.1. What is the strangest thing someone has requested from you during sex?
Ramrod: I haven't felt anything I have been asked so far to be strange to me. I don't consider my sex life insane crazy but I am far from vanilla. Requests for toys, positions and locations have all been fun but never thought strange to do.
Vile: Wow this is a very tough one. I am going to be truthful, I am the one with the strange request, nothing is taboo to me when it comes to sex. Although I am not into bestiality, I have witnessed it before sometime ago, not my thing but, hey who am I to judge. Honestly I cannot think of anything strange that I have asked or been asked.
Brian: Honestly I really have never been asked anything strange during sex. I guess the strangest for me would be the choking. My girlfriend likes being choked. I feel very strange the few times that I do that. I guess I do not see the what makes it a turn on so it is strange to me.
Lea Note: I did send him an explanation of how lack of oxygen can increase the strength of an orgasm, but as you should ALL know... NEVER EVER play with choking or oxygen deprivation without REALLY knowing what you're doing. NEVER! EVER! So sayeth Lea!
Jose: The strangest thing a bitch said was to suck her toes and I did it. I will never do that again Hell's to the NO! Close second: a chick wanted me to choke her.
2. Do you, as a guy, enjoy role play? How in depth do you go? Does it start hours before the 'date' and take some time to organize, or is it only in the bedroom with costumes?
Ramrod: I have never tried role playing but after reading Danica Avet's book Dean's List... I would definitely give it a try. I think both in the bedroom or doing a planned scenario would be fun.
Vile: I have done some role play, I think it is good to spice things up, if you can be serious enough, like to strangers meeting up in a bar, or a police detective coming over to ask questions, or the school girl trying to earn a passing grade, the babysitter, her doctor, behind on the rent, can't make the car payment, okay I'll shut up, but yes role playing is fun.
Brian: I have never done role play before so i honestly don't have thought on it. I would love to do a role play maybe be the pizza delivery guy delivering a pizza and she gets a pizza with everything on it hahaha.
Jose: I have and it was sweet. We spiced it up for a night you know.You can be someone you are not. I love it when a Ho dress up.
3. Piercings? Thoughts? Nipples, tongues, lips, eyebrows?
Ramrod: For Me? Fuck No! For a woman? Lip and eyebrow piercings I am not too much a fan of. They are not usually a turn off but I have never been turned on by them. Ear piercings are ok as long as there are not too many. Now nipple, tongue, bellybutton and pussy piercings are FUCKING hot. I would never ask a woman to get one but she would be greatly rewarded for volunteering to do so.
Vile: I am really like into Goth and Emo chicks they are fucking hot, both are into a lot of piercings. Although they are hot you must really think before getting any such as nipples or the clit hood done, there is a chance you could lose sensitivity in any area, so give it some thought before hand, once you lose the sensitivity it is gone. One the other side it could increase the feeling. I love the lips being pierced, the tongue makes for awesome head.
Brian: Piercings are amazing. Love nipple rings are hot on a woman. Tongue when a woman goes down and you feel the end of the ring on the shaft and balls. Nipple rings are great to suck on when you are sucking on some beautiful breasts. You can pull on the and it drives them crazy. Love boobs just saying you know . I'm not a huge fan of the lip rings they just look weird.
Jose: Nipple and tongue rings are hot as fuck. Tongue ring for sucking dick is amazing and nipples rings are hot to look at on some titties.

Tattoo Tuesday- Victor Taboada
Welcome
Victor Taboada
to Tattoo Tuesday
Give me four sentences that sum you up: what you do, who you are, where you've been...
- I've been a member of an extraordinary organization that serves and protects my country. I'm a "Coastie" (U.S. Coast Guard) and have been for the last 11 yrs stationed throughout the East coast and Caribbean. (Ft. Lauderdale, San Juan (3 times) & Virginia).
- I'm me, what you see is that you get, I'm like an open book, nothing to hide. I love to live happily and smiling all the time, now I will trust you 100% off the bat cause we all deserve at least one chance, but once you break that trust, might as well just walk away.
- Got the opportunity to travel to various places due to my job, but the one that most stuck out was when I was chosen to go and train the Lyberian Coast Guard. Got the opportunity to experience a totally different culture that what I was used to, met amazing people, loved the local food and I will never forget my experience in Africa.
What was your first tattoo? Does it have meaning to you?
MY first tattoo was an "off the wall" tattoo located on my right hip. It was the size of my index finger originally, but time has added quite a few more details to it. It does not have a meaning behind it, it's the only meaningless tattoo on my body. Every other tattoo I have was after my daughter was born and yes, they are all related to her.
Lea Note: I LOVE dedicated fathers.
Do you have any that you regret getting?
That "off the wall tattoo". Can't blame me, I was young and stupid. Now I am old and stupid. lol
Do you have more tats planned?
I got one more planned. Planning on putting it on my right rib cage. I do not want to cover my entire body, just most of it. lol
Do you buy into tattoos being addictive once you start getting them?
Tattoos are def addictive, can you only eat one chip/cookie???
What's your life plans for the immediate future? Long-term?
Immediate future is to keep preparing myself for future Men's Physique competitions and classify in a level 5 in order to be able to go to a National competition and have the opportunity to become an IFBB Pro.
Long term goal, I want to take a 2 year break from the Coast Guard and study photography in California at Hallmark. I have a passion for shooting and editing pictures. Currently I am my own photographer/editor. All the pictures you've seen on my fan page were taking by myself with a remote to activate the shutter.
Lea Note: *sigh* Coastie and artistic...
What's something about yourself that most people don't know?
That I love Mc Donald's M&M Mc Flurry with French Fries. :-\ Oh god, I'm so hungry now. Can they please be part of my diet???
If you were a superhero, what would your power be? Your weakness?
I would be just like Wolverine, but with the ability to fly. My weakness??? M&M Mc Flurry and French Fries from Mc Donald's, lol. My weakness would def have to be my daughter.
Lea Note: I asked if he dipped his fries IN the Mc Flurry... but he doesn't. Enquiring minds needed to know.
Favorite TV show or station?
Any movie channel. I'm not big on reg TV shows, etc. But I def can see movies all day long, every day. But who gots time for that???
What's your 'go to' comfort item (food, place, drink, etc)?
Def the beach. I enjoy the sun and ocean way too much. Living down in Puerto Rico has def spoiled me when it comes to this, especially living 6 min away at a walking distance. You can constantly see me just laying out alone, blasting music on my headphones and enjoying the sun. Now if there is another place I have to go cause it's a rainy day and the beach is not an option, I must def say it's the gym. So much stress is left behind there that you rarely can find me in a bad mood.
If there were no $ or time limitations, where would you be right now and what would you be doing?
I would be traveling the world. I would love to experience every culture the world has to offer. Def interested in how we are so much alike, but yet so different due to the places we live in.
Do you enjoy reading? Who's your fav author, or your fav type of book (suspense, mystery, biography, paranormal, etc)?
I hate reading. Normally by mid page I'm out cold.
Quick Questions:
Bottle or can? Bottle
Chocolate or vanilla? Neither. Strawberry. But if I really have to choose, Vanilla I guess.
Muscle car or motorcycle? Motorcycle
Morning person or night-owl? Def a Morning Person
Rollercoaster or bumper cars? ROLLERCOASTER, hellloooooooo
Any other shout outs you'd like to do? Websites? FB pages?
- My own FB fan page
- My IG, #onedateonegoal
-My friend, personal trainer, nutritionist and coach, "Lesley Fuentes"
For taking me under his wing when no one believed in me or saw any type of potential. Like I like to call him, he's the architect of my body. With out him, the body frame that you see in these pics would have never been possible.

Close Encounters of the Wicked Kind Scavenger Hunt
.jpg)
Welcome to the Close Encounters of the Wicked Kind Scavenger Hunt
I don't know if you enjoy snarky heroines but I definitely do. One of my first 'girls' happened to be Willie, a spunky, foul-mouthed halfie. She was born a cougar shifter but through a twist of Fate she was partially turned by a vampire. Her life was devoid of anything good until one night... She finds her mate and learns to deal with one of his oldest friends.
Half in LoveWillie Krenshaw wanted nothing more than a few minutes watching the waters of Lake Erie after a long workday. What she ended up with was a drugged male vampire and an itch to be a Good Samaritan. When her inner kitty starts sniffing around at the male she's helping, she knows Fate's evil sense of humor is in full swing. Being a shifter-vampire hybrid is hard enough, but having a male vampire as her fated mate is just too much. Nickola, the vampire she assists, finds her breathtaking and does all he can to push Fate's agenda. Stephen is the male vampire Nickola is investigating for the Council. He takes aim at the couple, intent on pulling Nick to his side or killing him. Between Stephen's scheming and the Council's interest in Willie, can they survive the chaos long enough to test the depths of their passions?
Excerpt:
“Nick, we have a problem,” she shouted through the front door before turning and awaiting the vamps on her front steps. She scanned the surrounding area for danger, keeping her senses open. Her body reacted to Nick’s nearness before she even heard him. Her cougar purred loudly and pressed against Willie’s mind. It wanted to rub against him for support and reassurance. Damn mating needs.
The males stepped out on her porch and both lifted their noses to the air. She would have found the vampy instincts funny if there wasn’t a deader in the truck parked in her driveway. She wasn’t sure she was more scared or angry.
“Oh, Nickola, you have a dead human in your vehicle. Did you know it was there?” Alex smirked at Nick and bared his fangs when the other male made a move toward him. “I would suggest you keep your anger in check. You can’t best me, and you need my help with the Council tomorrow.”
Nick took a deep breath and moved toward his truck. Willie winced in sympathy, she knew there would be no easy way to get the smell of decaying human out of a vehicle. She watched him approach his truck and tried to hide the grin as he grumbling under his breath about cleaning bills and asshole vampires. She tried to ignore the other bloodsucker who was slowly sidling up to her. As soon as Alex opened his mouth she knew she couldn’t ignore him. Shit.
“I will gladly take care of the body for you, dearest Willimena, as a gift and a token of my goodwill toward you.” Alex’s cool breath whispered over her cheek sending shivers down her spine. His body invaded her space, and her kitty growled deep in her mind. There was only one male that should be that close to her, and he wasn’t the one. She stepped away from the blond vamp and scowled up into his perfect face.
“I’m not sure taking a gift from you is such a good idea, Alex. I think Nick and I can take care of the problem.” She waved a dismissive hand toward the Hummer. “Why don’t you run along and we will see you tomorrow at the Council.”
“Oh, you poor delusional girl. Don’t you know that I can’t go anywhere until you’re brought before the Council? I’ve been tasked with bringing you in, and it would be my head bouncing across the floor if I lose you.” He leaned down and breathed in her scent, closing his eyes as he hummed. “You are so delectable. I could take you into my flock and keep you safe. I promise that they can’t kill you if you are under my protection.”“What is it with you? Let me spell it out for you so you understand me completely. I. Don’t. Want. Your. Help.”
“You will, little anomaly. When the Council sentences you to death, you can beg me then for my help.” He turned to watch Nick walk around the vehicle. He nudged her with his shoulder like they were good friends and whispered his next thought. “For his benefit, you’ll end up begging me.”
A hiss slipped through her lips. “I will never beg for anything, especially from a vamp.”He turned to her with a smirk and a laugh before heading down to Nick. She felt like the little kid that everyone patted on the head and put up with because she was cute. She hated being considered cute. Cute was a bunny or a sleeping baby. She was not cute, cuddly, or anything else soft. She was a hard, misunderstood bitch. It had taken her years to get the personality traits right to keep others away from her. In two days she went from being a feared creature of the night to some softly indulged child. The need to stomp her foot and scream at the irritating male was almost too much, but she swallowed the scream and pressed her heels into the steps. She huffed to herself and flounced down the steps. Might as well find out what they would be doing for the evening now that a stinking body was invading her plans.
“It’s a present from Stephen, how nice.” Nick stood momentarily in front of the Hummer door and then yanked it open. The corpse tried to fall out of the vehicle but was caught and held by the seatbelt. Fluttering in the breeze was a small piece of white paper pinned to the guy’s chest. Nick reached in and pulled the note off the body.
“So, don’t keep us in suspense. What does the note say?” Willie wandered down the driveway and peered into the vehicle. The dead guy was handsome, wearing a T-shirt and jeans. At least he wasn’t bleeding all over the inside of the truck. There were two sets of puncture marks on his neck, both dribbling small streams of blood into his shirt. The guy hadn’t been dead too long before he was placed inside the Hummer.
“It says that I’m paying for my involvement with the Council and that if I want to save myself and those I find dear to me, I’ll drop my investigation and leave him alone. The note is actually quite long winded, but that is the gist of it anyway.”
“How lovely, Nickola. Does Stephen think you have dear ones? Hmmm… Would one of those be our dear Willimena? How delicious. I can’t wait until tomorrow night.” Alex had sauntered to the vehicle and was leaning casually against the bumper. The tone of his voice grated on her nerves. How could one male be so fucking condescending?

Author Spotlight- Hennessee Andrews
Do that voodoo that you do….There are so many books out there and so many different personalities behind the words.
Molly, my sister, and I fell out,And what do you think it was all about?She loved coffee and I loved tea,And that was the reason we couldn’t agree.
A virtual smorgasbord is at our fingertips! We each have our triggers, stuff we like and want to read about. The same goes for authors. For the most part, I believe we first of all write what we know. Secondly, we write about stuff that trips our trigger. I know I do!
So to tell you a little about how my devious mind works, I will tell you that first and foremost, I’m attracted to blue collar men that know how to get their hands dirty. Cowboys? Heh! You bet.
So when the Texas Senator’s Sons series began I took average blue collar men and threw them into a big ass mess. Really. I’m kinda cruel that way.
Damon is the easy going and intelligent one. Drew is the hot headed and sexy one. And then…..Drake walked in out of nowhere. Poor guy wound up being the bastard son of the Texas senator. See, I told you I was cruel.
What is interesting about this series is how different each brother is and how differently they react to the situations they’ve been stuck in. All are good men with good hearts just trying to find their happily ever after.
Haven’t heard of the Texas Senator’s Sons series? Check all of the out at Bookstrand and pick up the series!
All books are stand alone, but the full adventure is better from the start.
Blurb:
Can a lonely florist meet a hot cowboy, become a stripper, get snared in an FBI investigation, and fall in love in one week? Absolutely!
Meet Regan O'Connor, who plunges into a world of stripping and fabulous sex with Damon Radcliff, who fails to mention that he's the Texas senator's son. That little tidbit of information would have been helpful to know before Regan got herself involved in Damon's idiotic scheme of proving his brother's stripping fiancée is up to no good. Regan steps into the shady world of stripping to find that the fiancée-to-be is a very bad girl and more.
All Regan ever wanted was to look back on her life and know that she lived for the moment and smile while reminiscing. She gets that and more. Regan also finds her inner stripper, confidence in herself, unimaginable sex, and an adventure of a lifetime.

Blurb: Drew Radcliff hasn't had good luck with women, which created an enormous chip on his shoulder, and Liv Lancaster is just the woman to knock it off. When she sets her sights on taming the demons inside him, she finds a man able to satisfy her in ways she could only dream of.
In order to free Drew from the pain of his past, Liv knows he must forgive his own indiscretions. Putting him through what she calls The Course may be just what the doctor ordered for expelling demons keeping him from love and the happiness he truly desires.
In Liv's quest to uncover the man hidden beneath the pain, she unleashes a highly sensual and sexual man able to give her all and more. Erotic spanking and bondage prove to be the weapon of choice when fighting for the heart of the sexy senator's son, Drew.

Drake Chandler didn’t ask to be the bastard son of the Texas senator. When the news breaks, life will never be the same again. His brothers hate him, and reporters want a glimpse of him. In the middle is a woman who challenges him to overcome the obstacles, and captures his broken heart.
Alex Mullins is working her veterinary internship on the Radcliff Ranch when Drake shows up, along with a media circus. She isn’t one to keep up with the news or politics. Instead, she is determined to complete her degree in veterinary science. As much as she tries to not like Drake, she can’t help but fall for the city boy, even though he comes with a lot of baggage.
The Radcliff family drama and hatred from Alex’s father toward the senator work to keep the two of them apart. Can Drake bond with his brothers? Can his life have a happily ever after?

Tattoo Tuesday- Rick Halstead
Welcome
Rick Halstead
to Tattoo Tuesday
Give me four sentences that sum you up: what you do, who you are, where you've been.
I am a 32 year old guy who works as hard as he plays. I grew up with and believe in the old southern hospitality ways. Growing up as an athlete, playing soccer, and a military brat, I have experienced many travels in my life. I am very thankful for the opportunities that have come my way but very motivated to make new opportunities happen.
What was your first tattoo? Does it have meaning to you?
My first tattoo was a tribal symbol with the number 9. 9 is the number I wore playing soccer my last season, and was the highlight of my soccer experience.
Do you have any that you regret getting?
No. Every tattoo represents a time in my life or an event that I believe is worth having a reminder about for the rest of my life.
Do you have more tats planned?
Yes! Definitely
Do you buy into tattoos being addictive once you start getting them?
Yes. Being able to express yourself artistically and keep it with you at all times, is very fulfilling or addicting.
What's your life plans for the immediate future? Long-term?
For the immediate future, I hope to open my own business. Long term, to be there for my son at all times.
What's something about yourself that most people don't know?
That I am actually a shy person who has to try really hard to get over my shyness.
If you were a superhero, what would your power be? Your weakness
My power would be to fly. My weakness would be my arrogance. hahaha
Favorite TV show or station?
Velocity
If there were no $ or time limitations, where would you be right now and what would you be doing?
I would be in Europe attending a Manchester United game.
Quick Questions:
Bottle or can? Bottle
Chocolate or vanilla? Chocolate
Muscle car or motorcycle? Muscle car
Morning person or night-owl? Night-owl
Roller coaster or bumper cars? Bumper cars
Where would you like people to find you? FB? Twitter? Instagram? Email? Website?
