July 30, 2010 I'm back after a short hiatus.


June 13, 2010 Nylon.  Of all the fabrics commonly used today, there might be none that invokes a deeper erotic feeling for so many of us.   I know it, along with latex, does for me.  And I assume it does for many of you too. 

In all the time I've had this website, I've never ever got a comment from a visitor saying how much he or she would like to take my stockings off.  And there hasn't been a single request for bare legs photos.  So I know you feel the way I do. 

On this note I have something really exciting to share with you.  Through a Twitter connection I found the most wonderful website.  A haven for those of us who love nylon .. and legs, heels and lingerie for that matter.

MyBackseam.com is a very new world with a very friendly user interface and a wonderfully classy look.  But the really exciting thing about it is the people.  Yes, I've joined many sites in my day but have never found a group like this one.  And as time goes by and as content grows, this site will be
©SeleenaK.comsomething you want to be a part of.  And it's not all about stockings.  Pantyhose, garter belts, heels, girdles, toes are all there.  There's even a wonderful section where members post their own candid "nylon sightings" captured out in public. 

Oh sure, there's a lot of reposting photos from the internet but there's also a lot of original content there too.  And that realism makes it very exciting for me. 

No, it's not a t-girl site .. most of the people there are men and women .. but they've accepted me, and those like me, with open arms.  The people are real, the dialog is very sexy yet intelligent, the photos are steamy yet classy and the blogs and stories are extremely hot yet professional.  

Lisa and Nick are the site owners.  Nick has an unsurpassed eye for finding nylon hotness in the world and Lisa is sweet, intelligent and oh so sexy. 

And the best thing of all ... the site is totally free,  There's no "this is the free part but if you pay you get this too" stuff.  All totally free! 

No ... I have no commercial interest in promoting MyBackseam.com .. and you understand me well enough to know that it takes some pretty intense feelings for me to promote anything or anyone here but this is something I really feel strongly about.  

So  please, if nylon, legs, feet or heels are your thing, give MyBackseam a try.  And please don't just surf as a guest.  Sign up.  It only takes a minute. 

And add me as a friend if you do. It's become the place where I'm the most interactive and I'd love to chat and share thoughts and feelings with you there.  As I begin to sunset my profiles on MySpace and Yahoo, this is likely where you'll find me going forward and I look forward to seeing you there!

(I've added a link to MyBackseam on my links page)


June 12, 2010 I thought I'd share this with you.  I love this fun little video.  Unfortunately, the flight attendants on my favourite airline are wearing golf shirts, shorts, ankle socks and Reebok's.  They're wonderful to me but the wardrobe could be much nicer. 





May 14, 2010 I met a new friend online recently.  A very young TS who lives not too far away  from me.  I won't tell you her name because that's not important to you but she's one of a very short list of very young trans girls that have left a very big impression on me.  She's as delightful and well spoken as as Jessica Who and has an attitude that's so different than most of the girls closer to my age. 

The baggage and bitterness is not present; no chip on her sweet shoulders. She just lives her life 24/7 as she knows she should. 

I'm not expert on the pre-op or post-op thing although I do know several girls who have had the surgery and even more that are anxiously awaiting "the knife".  For those waiting. the surgery is imperative; it's non-negotiable and the feeling is that life can never be "normal" until it's done.  They wear this like a badge of honour and put themselves at the top of the transgender heap as though they're the "real deal" and no one is is.

And a relatively high percentage of them will take their own lives after the procedure is complete.

But why is it that a penis .. a relatively small appendage (in most cases .. hehe!) is such a huge roadblock towards femininity for so many?  If we all walked around with our genitals exposed, then the world would see us in that context.  But we don't. 

But here is a young person who truly believes that surgery wouldn't make her any more of a woman than she is today.  And ya know what?  I believe her.  She looks like any other 20-something genetic girl out there, is very attractive (a hottie, actually .. whew), projects nothing but femininity  and has the same spark in her eyes as her genetic girl friends. 

My new friend doesn't hate her penis nor does she think it defines her gender.  And it doesn't.  The brain is in charge of that. 

The transguys out there seem more capable of doing this.  The surgery to make them fully functional as males is expensive, and the success rate is not high.  So most move on, strap-on in hand, and give their brain permission to define their gender.   Most are very successful and have friends, families and careers regardless of what's in their boxer shorts. 

My friend doesn't hang around with others like her .. looking for "support", whining about how nature dealt her a bad hand, and competing in hormone dosage comparisons and cup size competitions.  She simply did what she needed to do to feel comfortable within her own skin. 

She understands womanhood totally and honestly presents like any other girl her age.  No scrambling to look like she fits in.  She does! Some of it might be the luck of the draw but a lot of it is definitely attitude. 

Is she lucky?  Maybe.  Is her timing good? Yes .. the world is so much more receptive today than it was not that many years ago. Is she courageous? Absolutely.  But she could never be a positive example to those who struggle so much.   They wouldn't allow it.

I had always found the thought of hormone therapy and gender reassignment at a very young age to be worrisome at best.  But I now understand that it's the right time to begin living as the gender you feel you were meant to be and medically supervised hormone therapy is a big help. 

Funny how a relative newcomer to the t-world can help an older girl put things in perspective. 

I hope I haven't offended anyone with my thoughts on this and apologize if I have.  But since this is a free website, you can't ask for your money back.  :-)


May 5, 2010 I'm home.  Exhausted but it feels great to be back! 

My darling Kim and I got to see even more of the US and it was beautiful.  We found Utah and  Colorado breathtaking.

The weather cooperated, and although there was some pretty ugly stuff around us, we had sunny skies every day except for two. 
©SeleenaK.comHere is a photo of me doing what I did quite often.  Yes, I tried my best to tone down my look while travelling, and as you can see, I'm not really good at it.  But it seemed like the prudent thing to do .. especially when I know I'll be using the restrooms in states where I could, in fact, be breaking the law just by being in there with the women.  

Anyway .. a little about my journey.

I've always been intrigued by Route 66 - "The Mother Road".  For those of you who are not aware, US Route 66 has been around since the 1920's and was the major route between Chicago and Los Angeles.  It was also know as "Main Street America" because the road went right through the middle of many American cities.  It was also featured in a television series back in the 60's.

The road was also featured in a song written by Bobby Troup and performed by Nat King Cole, Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones, Depeche Mode and others. 

When the Interstate Highway system was built in the late 1950's and 1960's, the old road pretty much lost it's relevance.  But it's charm remains today for those who love the open road. 

It's no longer possible to travel Route 66 from Chicago to LA but pieces of it still remain, often right beside the interstate highway that made it obsolete. 

I decided that a Rte 66 highway sign would be a great photo opportunity for yours truly so I went in search of one with a background reminiscent of the old road charm.
©SeleenaK.comAnd I searched.  Flagstaff, Winona and Kingman Arizona, Gallup New Mexico, Amarillo Texas, Oklahoma City, Joplin and St Louis  Missouri for just the right photo ... and found nothing.  So just as I was nearing the end of the old road, I decided it was now or never and took the photo you see here. 

The area, although quite beautiful, doesn't have the charm I was hoping to capture but it will have to do for now.  I'll try to improve on this photo if I ever drive out west again. 

It appears that Route 66 signs are a coveted item these days and theft of these particular signs is very common.  Many of the cities on the highway have now removed all of the signs like the one in my photo and instead are putting them up high with the traffic lights in an attempt to deter "collectors".  hehe!

So enough talk about travel.  That's likely not why you're here. 

As I mentioned, the Viva Wildside event in  Las Vegas was a lot of fun.  And I look forward to doing it again some day.  My only regret was that I had brought a ton of video gear all the way there and really never used it.  I was hoping to recruit someone to operate the camera and the help me with my next video production but it seemed that the guys were too busy chasing the girls and the girls just weren't interested.  Understandable though, since partying, drinking and dancing were their main reasons for making the trip. 

So I'm getting my rest now, I've done the laundry and am getting the patio at Casa Seleena ready for another summer.  I'll miss having my next video ready for you on the first Friday of May but will work hard to get something shot soon. 

Lots of requests for "leg show" videos coming in so I'll likely do something like that next.  

I'll be posting an album or two in the coming weeks of photos, mostly taken by others, of some of our hijinks in Las Vegas but I'll try to alternate them with the type of photos you're accustomed to seeing here. 

Ohhhh .. heels!  I recently bough a new part of heels from UK.  Extremely slender stiletto heels and very pointed toes.  I'll tell you about them in my next blog entry and will feature them in an upcoming photo album or video. 

Stay tuned!

April 27, 2010 Las Vegas was a blast!  Special thanks to Nikki and Gina for organizing the entire week.  I got to see some old friends as well as meet some new one's. 

I'm not sure that Las Vegas was ready for us.  On two occasions an entire casino went silent as we all walked from the hotel to the cabs.  I guess it's all about being seen, isn't it?

But the city treated us very well. Some of the girls did experience some negativity but it was from other visitors, and only from the guys.  Most women think we're pretty cool.

I found that most of the girls were very into dance clubs .. and Las Vegas has tons of great ones .. but me personally, I'd rather play "footsie's" under the table in a piano bar than shakin' it and sweatin' with the 20-somethings.  But that's just me. 

Speaking of ass, here's a pic of me headed for the strip.  
©SeleenaK.comI "limo'd" a little, "cabbed" often and walked way too much.  But there's no way to avoid that in Las Vegas.  Even the walk from my room to get a cab was a marathon.

Will I do this particular event again?  Not sure.  Maybe my age is catching up with me but the dance club thing just isn't fun anymore and I'm still of the belief  that a girl doesn't go out without stockings on.  Old fashioned? Maybe .. but I like it that way, even though my style was somewhat different than many of the other girls in this particular group, where the boyish figure was quite popular.  

Soooo ... I know I missed a photo gallery update last week and promise to have something out there for this Friday.  I only wish I could keep the video streak going on the first Friday of the month but a May 1st video is going to be pretty difficult. 

I really needed to do this trip and should be home on Monday.  I'm in New Mexico right now and am hoping to get my life back to normal soon. 

I'll try to post some candids from Las Vegas as they become available.



April 19, 2010 Day Six (on the road to Sin City):  I'm here!  The last day of the drive was the most breathtaking of all.  The Zion area of Utah was gorgeous and the small area of Arizona that I passed through might very well be the most rugged and breathtaking the state has to offer; maybe with the exception of the Grand Canyon.  

But the real excitement started when we got the the hotel.  Met my dear friend Lola at the hotel registration desk and after a quick freshening up, we all met at the Wildside hospitality suite and took limos to PF Chang's for a wonderful dinner.  Nikki, Gina, Ashley, Amy, Dale, Jackie, Petey, Glenda, Niya, Sandra, Lola, Angie, Emily, Rachel, Kate and Heather ... all gorgeous and smiling. 

Most went dancing after dinner, but the weariest travellers returned to the hotel. 

CiCi, Joey,  Bunny, Nicole and LeeAnn will be here soon to join us.

I'm not sure if I'll be able to give you a day-by-day recap on my activities here but I do expect to share some photos with you as they become available. 



April 18, 2010 Day Five (on the road to Sin City):

Wow!!!  The view from the Seleena-mobile was surreal today.  The Colorado rockies are gorgeous as is Vail and and the other small ski resort towns in the area.  Temperature in the mountains was in the high 50's and very sunny, and the ski hills were very  much alive. 

But things got even more dramatic in Utah.  I've been a big fan of the Arizona desert for several years but I have to tell you;  AZ has nothing on UT when comes to raw, pristine, mountainous desert.  If I wasn't supposed to be in Vegas on Monday, I'd still be a few hundred miles east of here, staring in disbelief.  Red rock, black rock, gold rock, blue rock with just a touch of snow for emphasis. 

High desert temperatures in the mid 70's.  Perfect.

I know .. you don't read this blog to hear about scenery and I normally don't write about this kind of thing but really .. everyone needs to see this once in their lifetime. 

Regarding the bimbo adventure; nothing eventful today.  Interesting glances at fuels stops and rest areas but that's it.  And travelling all day in stockings and heels is actually quite comfortable.  But I'm not really a good judge of "comfortable or not". 

One more day on the road and I'm there!


April 17, 2010 Day Four (on the road to Sin City): 

Well, Kansas is ... Kansas.  And it appears that storms provide a lot of the excitement here.  Not fair to make that observation, I know,  but I call 'em as I see 'em.  Topeka did seem very nice though.  It would be cool to return some day to explore.

the sunny weather came to a screeching halt just inside the Colorado border.  Some serious rain all the way into Denver.  But it has stopped raining now and a gorgeous crescent moon is lighting up the sky. 

I think tomorrow is going to be a beautiful drive.  Into the Rockies and well into Utah. 

Speaking of Utah,  does anyone want to marry me?  I think having multiple spouses is okay here .. but be prepared.  You'll have to help with my stocking budget.  *giggling*



April 16, 2010 Day Three (on the road to Sin City): 

I'm into the "hunker down and drive" part of the trip.  The weather is cooperating and the landscape is .. hmmm .. vast.   I still haven't freaked anybody out and I'm happy for that.  Hopefully I'll have more to report tomorrow.

Oh .. and I wasn't able to get an photo album ready for my usual Friday update.  I'm sorry!  I'll do my best to have one ready for next week. 



April 15, 2010 Day Two (on the road to Sin City): 

It's the heels.  It's always the heels!  Not so much even the height  .. many women along the way are much taller than me.  But "click, click, click" into a restaurant or rest area and heads turn.  Oh well.  All has been cool so far.  Although those signs that say "No firearms permitted in the visitor's center" are a little unnerving.  Why would anyone consider bring a gun to the bathroom?  In case there's no "tissue" and you need to get assertive?

The temperature has been rising since turning southwest from Lake Erie and that city with the big arch thingy was in the low 90's today.  Yum!  Spring has really taken hold here.

The truck drivers are nice to me.  They like to try to drive beside me as I pass them .. I think to protect me  from evil.  Thanks guys! 

Had a quick visit and a nice dinner today and now it's time for some "chillaxing" before heading into the land of Dorothy and Toto tomorrow in the rain.  "Ad astra per aspera" .. yikes!

Latex wear would be appropriate except for the leather seats. 



April 14, 2010 I'm on the road headed for a "bimbo-thon" in "Sin City"! 

Day One .. in boi-mode today because I didn't want any problems getting into the US.  Great weather for driving but only got as far as south western OH after 8 hours on the road.  But all is good!  I hope to have some pics to share eventually but nothing yet. 

But you know, it's no wonder I tend to draw attention when doing road trips like this.   Most women dress like they're going out to work in the garden when travelling.  I know .. 'but I need to be comfortable".    Yeah .. whatever.  You're not exactly working up a sweat running across the country. 

Thank gawd I get to travel with my Kim.  She's gorgeous, even when on the road! 

Sleepy now.  zzz zzz zzzz





April 2, 2010 It's been a while since I've updated my blog here.   I thought it was time I took a few minutes to tell you what's been happening in my life.  

Although there have been a few "close but no cigar" situations, nothing much has changed for me.  I'm still in search of a gig I can sink my teeth into.  There have been a few close calls but in the end it appears I'm on my own to build something to keep my motivation level up.  But I have no doubt that exciting things will happen. 

A couple girls have passed through my life recently and as I mentioned to both of them, my only hope is that they're better off for having known me.  As much as long-term friendship is my goal, sometimes it's just not to be .. and that's okay. 

My video business is showing signs of promise and I'm working hard for nothing but experience and portfolio pieces right now.  But I'm getting better  at the craft so it's all good. 

I got to read a screenplay that a girlfriend wrote and was blown away with it's potential.  A very gritty drama about "girls like us".  In my dream world, I could work with her to make it come to life .. but in reality, I wish her well with it.  It really is deserving of attention and recognition. 

The very short list of guys in my life are still there for me.  I just wish I could be there for them too but I just can't be right now. 

I've been asked to help a friend rework her business and I jumped at the opportunity!  More on this as my involvement becomes clearer. 

I opened the purse slightly to let some high heel money escape!  I fell in love with  a rather unique shoe line from the UK, but I messed up on the sizing when I placed my order so I'm waiting for the correct size to arrive.  More to come on them, including photos, when they arrive.  Very sexy stilettos! 

Ohhhhh .. before I forget to mention it, my latest video is out today.  It's part 2 of my "Just Another Day" series.  The weather finally improved enough for me to shoot some of it outdoors .. even though southern Ontario looks pretty gloomy in March.  Hope you like it!

And lastly, I'm beginning to prepare for yet another "Bimbo Across America" road trip.  My darling Kim and I will be headed to the southwest US again, but on a little tighter budget this time.  The highlight of this trip will be meeting up with the "Wildside" girls (and guys) in Las Vegas.  I've met a few in person before and am looking forward to meeting many others who I've known only in the cyber world. 

I'm once again considering blogging the entire trip here on my site, including photos along the way, but am not sure how much demand there is for that.  I also don't know how much energy I'll have each night after a long day on the road.   And there will be one or two parts of the trip that I might not want to share with you  (wink, wink). 

March 11, 2010 Spring is in the air!  I know, "keep your panties on Seleena!   Winter may not be over yet".  But it feels soooo good. 

I spent a wonderful day in Toronto this week with my dearest friends and even got to shoot some outdoor video so the second installment of my "Just Another Day" video should be available here early in April. 

It was a humbling experience having two totally gorgeous girls help me with my video but they were kind to me and extremely helpful.  Thank you Dina and Liane! I now better understand my limitations as a video model and will script accordingly in the future but with some careful editing I think I can get another pretty decent video together.  Your reaction and comments will tell me if I'm correct. 

On another note, I've begun high level preparations for my upcoming "Bimbo Across America" road trip (haha!).  More to come on that in future blog entries. 




February 4, 2010 I got a warning earlier this week from nice people at Y! that I "might have" violated their Terms of Service, and that I need to stop immediately or my account might be terminated.  They gave no other detail but included a helpful link to a help forum.  But the link is broken .. "page not found".

Sooo there might not be a help forum available to help me understand what I might have done ... but whatever it might be, I need to stop it immediately or they might terminate my account. 

Well Y! .. to be honest with you, I might not care at all if you did that.

I haven't done anything different there recently.  Same behaviour as in the last several years; no abusive language, no porn, no confrontations, no "hate" talk, no threats.  I'd have a hard time  doing those things if I tried to.  My volume there has been quite high recently ... "add me" requests, messages, etc .. but that's about it. 

And my profile is as honest as it can be.  I don't even lie about my gender there, like so many of my "sisters" do. 

But in researching this very ambiguous warning, I learned that many bloggers and business people are of the opinion that the "Big Y!" has a thing for the guy runs the US.  You know the guy.  "Hopey-changey guy" .. (not to be confused with "hunky guy" from NY, who really is intelligent, handsome, sexy  and honest .. inside joke  <swoon!>). 

Simply disagreeing with "el presidente"" in their groups, forums, chatrooms (maybe even email and IM's?)  is grounds for termination.  Hard to believe, I know, but that's what many are saying.  And the funniest part of it all is that it was okay to disagree (or worse) with that "W" guy; just not with the new kid. 

So the "conservative" regime was more liberal than the liberal one turned out to be!  Who knew?   

Maybe my chances of getting invited to the Republican National Convention are not so far-fetched after all? 

Yahoo!       oooops .. I meant woohoo!



January 17, 2010 My friend <wink, wink> Shelby sent me this and I just had to share it with you.




Be careful at the airport, girls.   Always remember to "tuck"!   haha!



January 6, 2010 Okay .. I told myself I would never do this but I've deleted a blog entry.  My "Happy New Year! Would you  like fries with that?" entry was apparently more negative than it was intended to be and has caused some concern with those who read this.   I'm sorry! 

I thought about rewriting it  .. paying more attention to how it could be perceived but decided that sometimes things are better left unsaid .. and my personal situation and feelings are one of those things. 

Please forgive me for breaking the number one rule for bloggers .. I'll be more careful in the future. 


January 3, 2010 Happy New Year!  Would you like fries with that?

<entry deleted>


December 31, 2009 2009 is drawing to a close.  And what a year it's been.  

The terrorists have succeeded even further in changing the way we all live.  The "hopey changey" guy running the US has done nothing positive at all and has alienated allies, shown weakness to the bad guys and has spilt the country more than any of his predecessors.  Terrorist attacks are on the rise.  The economy is still in shambles. Political correctness is digging the hole even deeper.  Checkbook journalism and partisan coverage is tainting the news we see and read.  And the future looks anything but rosy for so many right now. 
 
On the bright side, maybe this is an adjustment we all need.  

But opinions are like penises .. everybody has one (don't they?  teehee!) and my opinion on world affairs is definitely not the reason you come to my site. 



The New Year resolution I made at the beginning of this year was a horrible failure.  I'm no closer to walking gracefully in ballet heels than I was in January so I'll make a different type of resolution this time around.

I resolve to  smile more!  Simple, huh?  I hope it is. People in my life come and go, and as hard as that can be at times, I resolve to cherish the moments as they happen instead of mostly cherishing the memories.  Yes, cherish the moments as they happen!  

Joni Mitchell once sang "you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone"  .. there's much wisdom in that single line.  And Seleena K once said "if we were supposed to cherish things that are behind us, we'd all be able to smile with our butts".  Not nearly as wise as Joni's line but you know where I'm coming from. 

Although Kim will always be the most important person in my life .. my one and only .. I really hope to also share a smile with you in the coming year. 

Happy New Year!   Y


December 24, 2009 Happy Holidays!!  I know some of you spend this time of year with family and friends and some spend it alone.  Regardless of your situation, I wish you the best of the season.


December 14, 2009 An Exciting Couple of Weeks

Although pics (still photos) have always been my thing, I've always been intrigued by video.  Many have told me that seeing movement .. body language ..  seems lots more intimate than still photos.  So based on these comments, and my own curiosity, I decided it was time to upgrade my rather inexpensive video camera.  And what better way to get familiar with it than to do a video for my site.  Please check it out in my Video Gallery.  Although I'm not that thrilled with my appearance in this one, I like the quality of the picture (even after YouTube's compression) and am proud of the job I did behind the camera .. lighting, editing, sound, music, etc.  Hopefully the look and feel of my "story" is a little more "professional" and interesting than much of what you see out there.  Comments are appreciated!

On another topic ... in an attempt to provide you with some exciting "out and about" photos I've been searching for a photographer to help me out.  Although I have nothing concrete to report just yet, I've made a couple contacts that are very promising.  With their help, I hope to be able to add some interesting photos here in the coming days and months.  The weather here is getting cold and the snow will be here soon, so I might get off to a slow start with this but it's coming. 

Since I obviously can't pay someone to do photos of me for my free website, finding a reciprocal arrangement is very important to me.  Offers to "help you out" are wonderful and greatly appreciated but I just can't be benefiting from someone's good nature over the long term. 

So .. I'm really hoping that one of my new contacts can benefit from some of my abilities (not that, you perv!) in exchange.

And lastly ... Dina Paige!  OMG!  I finally got to meet her and made a new friend in the process.  Dina owns a service based in Toronto that's exactly what girls like us need in our lives.  She's a Transgender Self Improvement Professional and is here to help us with everything from make-up to lifestyle coaching to photography sessions to referrals and references. 
Dina Paige 
Dina's a gorgeous girl with a sweet personality, has been through all of the "issues" most of us are dealing with and has emerged a winner .. rock solid, successful, happy and with an energy and zest for life that's contagious.  I'll be working with her to find ways that I can help promote her services.  Stay tuned, but for now, please check out her website. 

Please don't be fooled by Dina's glamorous look here (my choice of photos, not hers  :-) .  She really is one of the most approachable people you'll ever meet, and whether you're a casual  weekend dresser or have begun living 24/7 as a female, Dina understands and is here to help. Sit beside her, look into her eyes, hear her words, and her commitment to your happiness will become obvious. 

Girls, please don't go through the expense and frustration of time-consuming trial and error, like I did, in an attempt to get your look (and your act) together.  A few smart dollars spent up front can save you lots of time, money and frustration in the long term.  You owe it to yourself to allow the world to see beauty that's inside you.  You'll be surprised at the positive energy you receive in return.

Do I sound excited?  I am! .. and no, I'm not getting a sales commission.  hehe! 


November 16, 2009 Gifts for Moi?

In an attempt to generate some excitement here I've decided that I should start accepting gifts.  Over the last two years there have been quite a few offers  to send me small gifts in appreciation for my continuing effort to keep this free website going.  Although I was honoured by each and every offer, I felt the need to decline. 

I guess I was worried about having others guide my direction in some small way.  But in declining as I did, I missed out on some wonderful opportunities to interact with  those of you who value this thing I do. 

No, I'm not expecting truckloads of expensive clothing, heels, lingerie and jewels to appear at my door regularly.  But a trickle of small tokens of your appreciation might help me keep moving forward. 

I've also decided that I would start considering your requests to buy some of my personal items and photos.  I think some of you would like to wear the clothing you've seen in my photos and some would simply like to have them because it helps personify what you read and see here.  

So gifts? Send them.  Would you like to send me something to wear in photos and return to you immediately afterwards? Let's talk.  Want worn panties or stockings sent to you in a ziplock bag?  Please let me know.  Photo prints? Sure. 

I'm also looking at doing a calendar, creating wallpaper for your computer screen and DVD slide shows of my photos  in high resolution. 

Not only will it help me to get a little closer to you, in all honesty it excites me to think that you're touching, caressing and smelling things that were once mine.  It makes my panties wet!  

And to raise the gift incentive a little, those who send something this way will have the option of getting on my mailing list for at least the next year.  An email from me at the first of every month including a high res large photo picked from those added to my Photo Gallery that month. 

Repeat gift givers (two or more gifts in the same calendar year) will also have the option of receiving a personalized Christmas and Valentines Day card from me via snail mail. 

Just let me know your discretion requirements and I'll do my best to make it work for you. 

If you don't feel inclined to send gifts in these tough economic times, I totally understand.  Please keep coming back and comment when you feel inclined to do so.

I really want to be more to you than just an occasional mouse click.  Help me to do this for you .. and for me!

November 08, 2009 A Day of Remembrance - Wednesday November 11th

Okay, it's time to put away the stockings and heels for a moment and talk about something important. Really important. 

On Wednesday, 11/11 at 11 minutes after 11 o'clock we, in Canada, like so many other places in the world, will observe a moment of silence in memory of those who gave up their lives in combat for our freedom.  In preparation for this event, me and most other Canadians have been wearing a poppy on our lapels. .. left side,  over the heart. 

The poppy is a symbol of remembrance in my country and many other allied countries who  contributed troops to the war effort in World War 1.  Poppies grew in abundance in Flanders Fields, a battlefield-turned-burial ground that spanned an area from southern Belgium to north west France. 

I ask you to please take a few minutes to watch the very poignant Canadian video below to honour those who made the ultimate sacrifice so bimbo's like me can have the freedom to be who we are, regardless how controversial.

Please watch it ...... for me.  It's important.







October 29, 2009 Fashion versus Fetish

As an observer of fashion over the years, I've come to a conclusion.  Sure, this may be a well-known fact to others but for me, it's a new concept .. and the implications are scary.

I've come to the conclusion that today's fashion in tomorrow's fetish.  This is likely common knowledge to many but a revelation to me.  I'm not sure if this can be an all-encompassing statement about human behaviour and sexual perversity but we, as pervy humans, tend to fetishize things that had a sexual impact on our development, often at a very young age.

Guys and T-girls seem most likely to acquire a life long fetish but it certainly happens to women too.

The dictionary defines a fetish as a sexual attraction to an inanimate object.  Although I certainly shouldn't question Webster, that definition conjures up images of a lonely perv whacking to a pair of women's panties that mysteriously moved from her laundry basket to his at the laundromat.

My definition is somewhat looser than that.  I tend to think of a fetish as an attraction to anything that consistently conjures up feelings of eroticism in an individual, that is not already part of the male or female anatomy. Seamed stockings and high heels are a common fetish. Big red clown noses are a little less common <grins>.

And fetishes are best appeased only occasionally, to allow us all to get on with life. Let's face it, if your fetish was big red clown noses and everyone on the street wore them, you wouldn't get a lot done.

Therein lies the sadness to my observation, and you just know this is leading to a discussion of legs since I'm obviously a leg girl.

It seems that when seamed stockings were everyday wear for most women, little emphasis was placed on them sexually .. that came later.  When spandex leggings, tights and slacks went out of style (thank god), an increased sexual interest in "all things spandex" started to appear.  And now that pantyhose are vanishing from everyday life, the pantyhose fetish crowd is growing .. and I can personally make this observation because I'm seeing an increasing number of requests for pantyhose pics on my site.  Even Lady Gaga is careful to show the reinforced part of her pantyhose on stage to leave no doubt that she's wearing them. 

So, where does that leave us going forward? Bare legs, in my opinion, don't qualify as a fetish since they're part of the anatomy.  Does the casual comfort-based look women have chosen leave the next generation of  fetishists with a choice of cotton sweats, denim or microfiber?  And regarding women's footwear .. flip flops, track shoes, fluffy slippers?

Maybe schoolgirl skirts and knee-high socks will continue their popularity but the symbolism of that outfit is .. well, you know ..  a little twisted when the admirer is older and might be more about role-play than fetish.

So I'm calling on the fine hosiery manufacturers of the world .. Hanes, Wolford, etc .. to do something .. anything .. to revive their industry.

If not in the interest of corporate profits, think of the next generation of fetishy pervs.  Cuz if a marketing response to the downward trend doesn't happen soon from you, I'm going to start wearing a big red clown nose.



October 27, 2009 Friendship

Today I'm going to talk about friendship.  Something I'm feeling a little short on these days.

I've always been a very private person; someone who would rather have a few very close friends  than a hundred casual friends.  It's always been that way for me.  But I never realized how important friendship was to my own peace of mind until recently.

Having a close friend can be hard work but pays huge dividends, both to the heart and to the head.  And although privacy is something that might very well reduce complication and drama,  it isolates. 

I've worked so hard to maintain my privacy, both for myself and to protect those close to me, (especially as it relates to my gender bending activities) and I've been quite successful, only letting a very few to get close.  But when you put all your "friendship eggs" in the one basket, things can change .. and they have.

I lost someone close to me to an evil disease, a friendship or two faded when my work situation changed, another was lost when my feelings of friendship were met with something I perceived as  infatuation and a little closeness was lost with another due to ... well ... I'm not really sure.

And now I find myself in a situation where the  close friendships has vanished.

Due to my perceived need for privacy, I've been distant when many have  reached out to me;  partly because I was worried they would invade my space at an inopportune time, partly to avoid potential drama, and partly because I felt that having sex with me was their only motive.

So my suggestion to all my "sisters in heels" out there, please try to keep some balance between your privacy and your social life, and please consider that when life gets a little bumpy, a "guy in a skirt"  might be there for you to hold your hand.



October 9, 2009 A happy day here for a couple reasons.

First, I've come the realization that I have a chance to win the Noble Peace Prize next year. I thought that guys who dress like chicks were insane. The Noble Committee has us all beat.


And secondly, Thanksgiving is Monday up here in Canada. Happy Turkey Day to all my friends in Canada.



October 3, 2009 For the past couple of months, I've been following Jessica-Who on Twitter. I believe Jessica found me there, and as always, I checked out her tweets to see if a reciprocal "follow" was in order. Wow, was I impressed!

Twitter is used by many to bring attention to their "other" initiatives and this is the case with Jessica. Her tweets  are always fun and include the latest TG happenings from the news and entertainment world but the excitement starts at her linked website.

Jessica-Who.com is a very professional, great looking, informative, entertaining blog site centered around all things transgendered. It's written with personality and compassion, and is updated often. Not all topics will apply to everyone but I honestly believe that you'll enjoy most everything there.

Jessica's married and quite young by (ahem) my standards (I won't tell you what she said upon learning of my employment status .. lol) and brings a fresh outlook to many of the life experiences we've all been through in the early stages of our transgendered "careers", albeit many years ago.

I've chosen an email subscription but there are other ways to follow Jessica, if email isn't your style.

Please check her out!  Jessica-Who.com . I've also added her banner to the "Fav's" area of my "Links, Favs and Thank You's" page. 



September 24, 2009 Here is yet another example of crossdressing in the mainstream. Actually this commercial follows two trends. The "stupid white guy" trend as well as the crossdressing trend.

All this mainstream treatment of "this thing we do" has got me thinking about a new career opportunity. So as of this minute, I'm making myself available for TV commercial appearances, complete with the bulge!

Do the annual advertising awards ceremonies (the ADDY's or CLIO's, I think) have a red carpet? I always thought it would be cool to get out of a limo, all leggy, and walk the red carpet to the sound of camera motor drives.

On second thought, maybe I should just make a trip to the carpet remnant store and buy my own.




September 23, 2009 Autumn is here. Soon my world will change from green and lush to crisp and golden .. and then on to something that looks post-nuclear warfare. Gawd, I hate leafless trees and an overcast sky.

Oh well .. I've put the white clothes away until next year (as if I have many white things .. lol) and have bought an awesome pair of leather gloves to keep my hand warm on those cold evenings, in case you're not here to keep me warm.

Here's a little commercial I thought I'd share with you. Some of you can relate to this  :-o



September 20, 2009 Here's a cool music video I thought I'd share with you. I just luv the expressions on the guy's faces!



Haha .. pretty cool, huh?  *giggling*


September 19, 2009 Just after midnight last night, my little seleenak.com place in cyber space reached the 50,000 visitor plateau.

With so many other sites out there .. gorgeous T-girls, and even more beautiful female sites with similar content, I'm proud and honoured to receive a little bit of your surfing time.

Thank you everyone for keeping my dream alive!


September 12, 2009 I just had to share this with you. Stiletto Sprint racing for charity! Only in Canada?  :-)

September 4, 2009 Happy Birthday ... to ... me, I guess. SeleenaK dot com turns 2 years old today.

The last couple years have been interesting, to say the least. A big learning experience for me as I continue to do what I like doing while trying to measure your reaction to it. Sometimes your comments are an indication and other times I go to the page hits for insight.

I was expecting that I would have found a clear direction for this site by now but this is not the case. So until that light goes on, I'll just continue having fun.

I think my images have improved since I started doing this and I'm grateful for that.

I've met some very nice people and received travel and gift offers. I've justified a bit more photog equipment yet I stilll struggle justifying the expense of video gear even though my "Just Legs" video has been a huge success, at least by my standards, on YouTube. I experimented with a message board, erotic stories and a site stats page, and my chatroom has been up, down and back up again.

What does the next year have in store for you and I? Likely more of the same but I'll be making an effort to do more pics outside the relative safety of a controlled lighting environment, although I'm aware it may increase interest at the expense of image quality.

Thank you to all of you who visit here .. some regularly and some rarely. Especially those of you who take the time to comment. I put myself out there into the big pie, and only hope to get a little slice for myself.

Stay tuned!

*kisses*

Seleena


August 11, 2009 I've decided to revive my chatroom. I'll be there faithfully during the specific hours mentioned on the page and whenever possible outside those hours. Please drop by to say "Hi" if you have the opportunity. It's usually pretty quiet in there so it can be a good opportunity to chat one-on-one.

August 9, 2009 I've added a link to my friend Nicolle's web store on my Stuff page. Nicolle is a hard working girl who goes to great lengths to bring you the things  you want, in the sizes you need and at the best possible price.

Please take a minute to check out Genie - The Crossdress Store. She carries all of the essentials as well as tons of fun stuff. She really is "giving special girls an alternative".

Nicolle is also organizing a very special weekend event. "An Alluring Affair" is happening on November 6-8 2009 at the very luxurious Deerhurst Resort here in Ontario. In case you're not familiar with Deerhurst, it truly is one of the finest resorts in Ontario and will be the venue for the 2010 G-8 world leader summit. The event is all-inclusive (I believe cocktails and spa treatments are the only things not included, but please check the event page to be sure) and is a wonderful opportunity for those who never get out, as well as those who get out frequently, to enjoy a weekend of fun and pampering in a non-judgemental environment. The facility is top-notch, the staff are wonderful and the food ... OMG! The event page can be found here.

I have a busy schedule at that time this year but am working hard to clear those days. I really want to attend this one as a special treat to myself. 

If you're planning to attend, and can commit in the near future, please email me here to let me know. I'd love to party with you there!

You deserve this!

July 29, 2009 Okay, so Elle Magazine here in Canada just came out with an article on their Fashionism website entitled "8 Must-Have Lingerie Items" 

Here's what they had to say:

Must-have lingerie

Sexy pieces every woman should have in her lingerie drawer.

If you want your lingerie to sizzle all year 'round -- turn up the heat with some super-salicious pieces. ELLE Canada visited hot lingerie shop, Avec Plaisir, in Toronto, where sexy celebs like Mariah Carey and Catherine Zeta Jones head for their unmentionables. We chat with owner Vasilia on how to build the perfect lingerie wardrobe.

Demi-lace bra For those low-cut items that give just a glimpse of décolletage, you need something that's flirty and stands out.

Bustier Bra A bustier gives you lift and sex appeal. "It's perfect for under a jacket," says Vasilia, "or any item where you want to show something off. La Perla makes some beautiful ones."

Well-fitted corset No ladies, corsets aren't just reserved for the 18th century or weddings. Corsets cinch the waist and enhance curves, plus, due to modern technological advancements, you can actually breathe in them.

Long Gown A flowing knit gown is a no-fuss approach to sleepwear but still exudes a sex kitten look. "Comfort and sexiness is what all women want," explains Vasilia.

Baby Doll Innocent and va-va-voom at the same time, a lacy black baby doll will bring out the inner romantic in you. "It's so comfy and playful," says Vasilia. "and oh-so-flirty."

Strapless Bra Set  A must! It's the turn-to bra in the summer or for that perfect cocktail dress and every woman needs one. "Getting the whole set, complete with flirty panties and sexy garter makes it extra special," explains Vasilia, "especially if only you know they are under there!"

French-seamed stockings The best way to describe a pair of well-made French-seamed hose -- sultry. Vasilia insists it's "a must-have." Bonus: The seam up the back is like a magnet for a guy's eye.

Fish net stay-ups A slick pair of fish net hose never goes out of style and nothing gives more definition to your legs. "It's worth investing in high-end stockings," says Vasilia, "they complete your outfit and make you look very polished. Opt for a pair from Wolford, they're worth the investment!"

For more information, please check out www.avecplasir.com or call: 416-922-7702.


if you'd like to see that article, click here.

I'm bringing this to your attention for a couple reasons. First off, it would appear that corsets, seamed stockings and fishnets are becoming more and more mainstream. Good?  I think so. But what's left for those of us who dress on the edge? Latex to the PTA meeting?

And what's all this about comfort? It's not important to all of us. Remember what "Fernando" on SNL used to say (with his sexy Spanish accent) .. "Darlings, it's better to rook good than to feel good!"

And secondly, I did notice there were two things on the list that I don't even own. And not surprisingly, they're the two most mainstream items on the list, in my opinion.  A baby doll and a long night gown.

Sooooo .. if mainstream girls are gonna start wearing the stuff that are staples in my wardrobe, I'm going to start wearing their things!

Anyone want to send me a baby doll or a long gown? I really don't want to freak the ladies out  when I strut my tranny self into the type of lingerie store that specializes in them. I promise to wear them for you and will do a photo album or two for my site. *giggling*


July 20, 2009 I thought I'd share this with you. Some of you will understand this intimately, and hopefully agree!

A guy is walking the strip in Las Vegas and a fantastic-looking Vegas hooker catches his eye.

He strikes up a conversation and eventually asks the hooker, "How much do you  charge?" The Hooker replies,  It starts at $500 for a hand-job." The guy says, "$500 dollars! For a hand-job! Holy crap! No hand-job is worth that kind of money!"

The hooker says, "Do you see that Denny's on the corner?"  "Yes." "Do you see the Denny's about a block further down?"  "Yes." "And beyond that, do you see that third Denny's?"   "Yes." "Well," says the hooker, smiling invitingly, "I own  those. And I own them because I give a hand-job that's worth $500."  So the guy says, "What the hell? You only live once. I'll give it a try."

They retire to a nearby motel.

A short time later, the guy is sitting on the bed realizing that he has  just experienced the hand-job of a lifetime, worth every bit of  $500. He is so amazed he says, "I suppose a blow-job is $1,000?" The hooker replies,  "$1,500." "I wouldn't pay that for a blow-job!" The hooker replies, "Step over here to the window, big boy. Do you see that casino just across the street?  I own that casino outright. And I own it because I give a blow-job that's worth every cent of $1,500." The guy, basking in the afterglow of that terrific hand-job, decides to put off the new car for another year or so and says, "Sign me up."

Ten minutes later, he is sitting on the bed more amazed than before. He can scarcely believe it but he  feels he truly got  his money's worth. He decides to dip into the retirement savings for one glorious and unforgettable experience. He asks the hooker, "How much for some pussy?" The hooker says, "Come over here to the window, I want to show you something.. Do you see how the whole city of Las Vegas is laid out before us: All those beautiful lights, gambling palaces, and shows?" "

Damn!" the guy says, in awe, "You own the whole city?" "No," the hooker replies, "but I would... if I had a pussy."


Thought you might like that .. especially if you visit sites like mine  :-) But where do I find guys like that? Back-to-back O's and he's looking for more? 




July 19, 2009 I think I'm switching frequent flyer programs! This directly from the CEO at "another" airline at a recent press conference.  Very cool. Sure beats a bag of peanuts! Wonder if I can get a job with them?





July 6, 2009 Well after a short but necessary hiatus I'm back. My apologies to those who emailed me or came by to look for updates during my absence. If this was a pay site I would have honoured my obligations and continued the weekly updates but since it isn't, I got to put things aside for a while with a clear conscience.

So, look for new photos on a weekly basis and even a new video or two. And again, your feedback is always appreciated. My service agreement with my hosting service expires soon so your words will help motivate me to renew.

Oh sure, there are younger, sexier gurls out there and many who like to lose their panties for the camera, but I'm hotter ... in a sick and twisted way .. and best of all, I'm free!

Stay tuned.


 
May 29, 2009 I have a couple exciting things to share with you!

For a long time I've been considering buying high heels from an online store called "6 Inch Heels Forever" but have been a little concerned about buying directly from China and frankly I find their website a little difficult to navigate. Their heels are quite extreme, very unique and absolutely gorgeous, in my opinion. Well, I recently learned that they have opened a retail store in Toronto!!! I am sooo there .. but it might take a couple weeks to get there. I'm interested in learning how "walkable" some of their extreme arch styles are.

After I go shopping I'll be sure to add a photo album or two here for those of you who are as into heels as I am.  And if anyone is looking for a gift for me, please consider something from these guys. A little pricey, but I'm worth it .. or not ..  *giggling*



Now, I rarely endorse anyone here on my site but I have to tell you about someone I met recently who I think the world needs to know about. Vanessa Thompson is an extremely talented song writer, is drop-dead gorgeous and has the voice of an angel.

She gave me permission to mention her here. Please check out her website and her videos on YouTube. And while you're there, spend a dollar or two to download her music.  Who knows, if we're all really nice to her, she might just let me post her photo on my "Friends" page.

Vanessa, I wish you all the best in your career.


April 19, 2009 You know how I love the heat. Well finally, it's getting hot here in the southwest. It's going from unseasonably cool to unseasonable warm in about 48 hours. The 60's are leaving and the 100's are coming! And better still .. the night time temperatures will not be dropping below 60. That's more like it.

Soooo .. it's not like I don't spend enough time each day responding to electronic messages. I'm making things even more complicated. Alt dot com, MySpace, Yahoo, Yahoo Groups and Yahoo360, Windows Live, YouTube, URNotAlone, FetLife .. and now Twitter.

Some wise person once said that it's better to so a few things really well than do a million things poorly but I just can't resist. I guess I continue in search of the one social networking world that works for me.

But when I reflect on this, I realize that this public thing ... fitting in, feeling comfortable ... is still very elusive to me. 

Within my primary relationship, things are fabulous as always. so I'm really in a happy stage of my life. But when I try to exist outside of that, things get very hazy and somewhat difficult very quickly.

Sooooo .. in a nutshell, here's where I am. Struggling, as always, to find my public place. Making photos for you and for me, and maintaining a website with no direction.

Is Twitter my "silver bullet"? I'm sure it is not. But if it's good for Ashton Kutcher, it must be good  for me .. haha!. He's just attained the lofty goal of 1 million followers on Twitter .. the first person to get there. I'm hoping for a hundred, and a tiny, yet comfortable, place in the world outside my private life. 

We'll see.


April 10, 2009 Ahhhh ... the warmth of the desert sun! After many days on the road, I arrived on April 1st. Sunny, warm, cloudless skies.  me in the desert

I just got settled in time for my barbie to arrive from the Pacific northwest. We had a great time  and I look forward to getting together with her again. 

So now it's relaxation, a little southern AZ exploration and hopefully a side trip to SoCal to hang with old friends, maybe meet some new ones and check out the club scene there.

Oh .. and I look forward to doing more photos for this website and maybe even a video. 

Does it get any better than this???


March 25, 2009 I'm  on the road! After a long and cold winter at home, I decided it was time to get away for a while.  And a road trip to the southwest US seemed just the thing to do. Visit some friends along the way ... find some new locations for photos .. make a few dollars at truck stops along the interstate!  :-)

So I'm off .. but will continue to update  the Photo Gallery on my website as I always do. Wish me luck!

 
March 5, 2009 Time for a little fun. As requested by my friends on Alt dot com, I'm posting a link to "The Titty Test". Try your luck and see how high you score.  I got 16 .. surely you can beat me!

And here's another. Can you tell the guys from the girls? I only scored 10 on this one.  Sheesh!


January 23, 2009 Time to vent.

Those that know me, know that I prefer to shop on eBay. I find that the power of "feedback" works very well in assuring reasonable service. I'm really not after any special "exceeded my expectations" service.  But it's quite difficult to get advice when buying on eBay so sometimes I leave the relatively safety of that world and venture into the world of internet vendors.

I've had some frustrations recently with that I'd like to share.

First off, I bought a "high quality" corset from Nightshade Corsets back in October with the intention of wearing it to the Fetish Ball in Las Vegas. Based on the advice I got, I ended up with the wrong size (I know, I'm a tough fit). Graciously, the store offered to exchange it. I immediately (same day) returned the corset and paid for another one. When my return was received I was immediately credited for it's cost but a few critical days went by (with unanswered email expressing my willingness to pay extra for expedited shipping) and eventually I was told the replacement item was shipped. Of course, the corset arrived after I left for Las Vegas.

Well now, after only a couple rather gentle wearings I've noticed that one of the steel bones is poking out of the bottom trim. I'll try to have it repaired but honestly, I've gotten better wear out of a relatively cheap $200 corset and this one was substantially more expensive. 

My other frustrations is regarding MAC Cosmetics online. For whatever reason, my emails to them keep going unanswered. Twice I've had to resend, only to get a "thanks for your patience" reply. The delays have caused me to miss the big annual online sale, and I was planning to spend a ton of money. I've been told that MAC is "friendly" to girls like me so I imagine the problems might just be procedural, but who knows.

I'm sticking with Dermablend.

Vent-mode off!


January 9, 2009 The new year is here, and really .. it's doesn't look or feel much different than last year. But who knows what this year will bring.

I hope you all took the time to make a New Year's resolution. (Is this a North American custom only?) Hopefully you haven't already made and broken yours. But if you haven't made one yet, maybe I can help. Try this ... resolve to do something this year that you've never done before. Maybe something you've only dreamed about, or fantasized about. Give yourself permission!

Now I'm not suggesting you throw caution to the wind and do something that's potentially life-altering . Just something small but maybe something you never thought you'd have the courage to do. And whether it goes well or not so well, the feeling of excitement will remind you that life is as exciting as you make it.

Me? My resolution involves hard work. I'm going to try to learn how to walk more gracefully in ballet heels! I don't expect to ever be able to wear them when I go to the shopping mall but being able to  gracefully walk for short distances would be awesome.

----------

Now ..  I'm starting to get a little worried. The US Inauguration is just a couple weeks away and my invitation still hasn't arrived. New dress and new shoes are ready, and my frequent flyer points are burning a hole in my purse. So someone .. help me out here!  I promise to be a prefect lady and someone you'd be happy to be seen with.  :-)

Ohhhh .. it's not that I'm a fan of the guy who the big party is for ... on the contrary, actually. It just seems like it might be a good party for someone like me. 

Let's just see how liberal-minded those people really are!

*kisses*

Seleena

PS .. and for those of you who are familiar with my circle of friends .. I recently got an email from my favorite Toronto girl who is now living in Argentina. Micheala is doing just fine and she's just as sweet as she always was. I think I need to ask her for a new photo to see what changes the South American lifestyle has inspired. It's always a pleasure to hear from her.



December 31, 2008 Well, another year is drawing to a close, and from everyone here at seleenak.com  (just kidding! there's only me here) I'd like to wish you all the best for the coming year.

May happiness and prosperity be with you each and every day! 

*kisses*

December 24, 2008 I'd like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and  a Happy Hanukka. I'll be having a very quiet holiday this year and will be thinking of those of you who will be doing the same.


December 15, 2008 I'm taking a break from the pre-holiday festivities to get a little philosophical. If you don't identify as a Domme or a sub, you may want to skip this blog entry entirely.

Domination and Submission


I read a few things recently regarding D/s that I'd like to share with you.

The terms "Dominant" and "submissive" mean different things to a lot of people. And it seems to me that many are quick to label themselves and take on the behavior they believe matches that label. But to others, it's quite easy to read as an obvious charade.

Submissives who "Top from the bottom" and Dominants who believe that rudeness and bitchiness should be respected are everywhere. And personally, I find both types to be offensive.

So this is why the following makes so much sense to me.

Submissive? An acquaintance "mutilato" believes the following, and I agree:

All submissives have at least one of these qualities:

  • Are you lowly and must be degraded?
  • Are you lost and must be owned?
  • Are you docile and must serve?
  • Are you free and must be bound?
  • Are you bad and must be punished?
  • Are you a whore and must be fucked?
  • Are you everyone's and must be shared?

And "tami" pointed out the following words from J. Mikael Togneri as a way of defining a Dominant:

THE SEVEN PILLARS

  • A dominant is a ruler, but never a tyrant. But to rule requires understanding, and understanding requires humility.
  • A dominant has pride, but never arrogance. But pride requires dignity, and dignity requires humility.
  • A dominant commands respect, but never fear. But respect requires serenity, and serenity requires humility.
  • A dominant employs strength, but never force. But strength requires knowledge, and knowledge requires humility.
  • A dominant criticizes, but never derides. But criticism requires insight, and insight requires humility.
  • A dominant receives, but never takes. But receiving requires giving, and giving requires humility.
  • A dominant completes, but never tries to alter. But to complete one must be able to see what is there, not what is missing, and this most of all requires humility.

In short, to use an archaic phrase, noblesse oblige. If a dominant is the center of a Submissive’s universe, it is because the submissive thinks so, not because the Dominant does. No one is respected, let alone obeyed, just coz.

The truth of the matter is that owning is at least as much work as being owned.

Seven pillars of life. Seven pillars of wisdom

Thanks for reading ... I'm heading back into "bimbo mode" now.  "Where's the eggnog?"

 

 

December 10, 2008 Since the gift giving season is upon us, I couldn't resist sharing this with you. To those of you in a relationship, beware!  haha. It's nearly 5 minutes long, but some lessons take that long to teach.




December 4, 2008 The holidays are approaching fast and it's time to get serious about preparing.  I'm giving a garterbelt and stockings to everyone on my list this year.  It's the gift that keeps on giving and you can never have too many!

And the guys on my list are getting them too.  Oh sure, they'll pretend that it's a silly gift but alone and behind closed doors it might not be so silly.  *giggles*

And this year I'm not climbing down anyone's chimney.  Squished boobies and ruined heels is all I have to show for it last year.  And some wise guy left me cookies and milk with a note that said "for Bimbo Claus".  Gimme a break! I was okay with the note, I really was, but  milk?  Now I've done a little forced lactation play in the past but warm milk in a glass?  I don't think so.



December 3, 2008 I'm still chasing around for permission to publish a few photos from my recent trip to Las Vegas. So rather than wait for permission from the straggler, I thought I'd just remove her photo and  publish the rest. Sadly though, someone else is in that photo and doesn't get included although she had already given me the okay (Sorry Spirit! .. Some day I'd love to do a whole album with you, Rubber Doll.).

Anyway .. some of the photos are mine. Some are from my friend Nicole. And some are from Gerry Koehler .. a very handsome guy and a very talented professional photographer from Los Angeles.

Hope you enjoy the photos.  You can find them here.

December 1, 2008 Well, it's time for some changes here. After a great deal of thought, I've decided to remove the two pages on this site that get the lowest number of hits each month.  So my "Site Stats" page and my "Erotic Fiction"  page are gone.

I'm not surprised that the "Site Stats" page wasn't exactly popular.  Intriguing info to me but I really didn't expect you to wait anxiously for the first of every month for the newest stats to arrive *giggles* .

But I must say, I'm surprised that the Erotic Fiction page wasn't a lot more popular.  Maybe it was my fault for not getting the updates in there regularly .. not sure .. but it certainly wasn't due to the quality of the stories.  Every single story managed to make my panties uncomfortably tight.  :-) 

Soooo ... to Samantha and Red Dawn .. thank you both so much!  If the day comes when I can think of a better way to package your awesome work, I hope you'll both consider helping me again.

Now for some good news .. I hope.  I'm going to take another kick at a message board.  The new and improved version will have a look similar to my Guestbook and will require no complicated log in.

On a personal note, life is great! I've been having a great time but it's been nothing I can tell you about here. Sorry!  I'm almost ready for the holidays and have already starting keeping mistletoe in my panties. Kiss me baby!!!!!

November 27, 2008 Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends in the USA. Turkey, football, family, the parade, stockings, heels .. it's what the day is all about.  *giggling*

November 7, 2008 Home again. Time to get unpacked, do some laundry and reflect on a fabulous vacation. And unload the camera!

Although I really should have taken more photos at the Fetish Ball,  I'm a very discreet girl and just don't feel comfortable posting pics without the express consent of everyone in the shot. But regardless .. the excitement that I felt would most certainly have been lacking in the images.

So I'll be answering your emails, both here and on the other sites, and starting to prepare more photo albums to appear here in the near future.

It's also time to start thinking about shooting a new banner photo with a holiday theme to be used here on my site for the month of December.

As much as I wanted to attend the Exotica event in Detroit this weekend, it  looks like I'll have to miss this one :-( . I still haven't fully recovered from my vacation. But if you go to it, please send me an email and tell me all about it! And have a great time!


November 4, 2008  Having an amazing time in Arizona! The condo is great and the weather is fabulous. I only saw a few clouds one morning and the temperature has reached 90 degrees every day. The nights are quite comfortable .. latex weather actually .. dropping down into the low 60's or high 50's.

I was able to find the time to take a lot of photos for this website and spent some quality time with friends that included dinner at a fabulous restaurant. Thank you Mark and Sara!

The people in AZ are quite environmentally considerate and do their best to make new ©SeleenaK.comdevelopment appear in tune with the surrounding desert. Yet for a high-end restaurant and mega-dollar residential development, they had no problem tunneling through a mountain to reach an pristine desert area only seen previously by hikers and mountain climbers. Although the result was quite stunning, I had mixed feelings about just how far they went to please the "rich and famous". I know, "lighten up Seleena!".

I looked at some real estate also ... not the kind that requires a drive through a mountain to get to .. but rather a relatively simple condo in a very nice complex in the foothills overlooking the city. Who knows? I may just end up spending most of my time there.

But all good things must come to an end eventually, and it's time to return home to Canada. Hopefully the new corset that I ordered has arrived. My intention was to wear it in Las Vegas but the people at Nightshade kinda let me down.

To all who have sent email to me or looked for me online, I've been reading all my email while away and will respond when I get home.


October 31, 2008 HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!!!!!


October 30, 2008 Las Vegas .. there really are few cities like it. Larger-than-life. A monument to excess.

My trip this time was as exciting as any in the past. Kim and I got to spend lots of time with My barbie.  Barbie took great care of us, providing the wheels for getting around, as well as booze to keep us loose.  She also prepared a fantastic dinner for us, that we enjoyed along with a rather expensive bottle of wine that barbie picked especially for that dinner.  And like the good maid that she is, she made us an after dinner drink to enjoy while she cleaned up.  Thank you barbie, for a wonderful time!

We went to Lee Ann's birthday party on Friday night at the Wyndham and I finally got to meet her.  A gorgeous women  who didn't miss any opportunity to get out her flogger.

Nicole Lashes had invited us to the party for her partner, and meeting her also was wonderful.  She's even nicer in person than she is online.  Hope to spend more time with her in the future.

Also got to hang with Tricia, Spirit, Shavonna, Shock and Amber (more on Shavonna and Spirit in a future blog update).  Fabulous people I'd love to see again, although I'm a little sad that I didn't get to spend more time with Tricia.  We chat lots online and I would have liked to continue that chat in the flesh. 

I stayed in a wonderful condo just off the strip ... ©SeleenaK.comvery elegant and very secure (just ask barbie about her experience with Mr. Chuckles, the guard at the front gate  *giggles*).  And although we turned a few heads in the lobby, everyone was very accepting.

The Fetish & Fantasy Halloween Ball was incredible.  A feast for the eyes and ears.  The continuous  stage performances were Vegas caliber, but with a BDSM edge.  Dancers and acrobats were everywhere and a "flogging stage" had a continuous stream of Dom(mes) and subs demonstrating their own particular style.

But the most incredible sights of all were in the crowd.  Although a small number were in ©SeleenaK.comHalloween costumes, the vast majority of the crowd was in fet wear.  Ultra-high heels, garters, corsets, fishnets, latex and leather was everywhere.  And the group was a little younger than I expected. Gawd, it was fun .. and so erotic!

My barbie and I got many requests to pose for pics ... she was on My leash .. and, yes, we obliged.  Even 'Fucking Gerry", the fetish photographer, took a photo or two of us.  If any of you should see us on another site, please drop me line so that we can check out the photos too.

Although we were invited to the after-party, we were hurting from a long day and a little jet lag so we left the Ball and headed back to our condo.  But even the cab ride was an laugh.  Our cab driver was a kinky guy very much into BDSM.  As soon as we got in his cab he said "I smell latex! Who's wearing latex?" (in case you hadn't guessed, it was me .. Kim and barbie were wearing PVC).

Sunday was a day to relax a little and do some "barbie bondage", and the day soon ended with our sad goodbyes.  Monday flights for all of us ... barbie was heading home and Kim and I were off to Arizona.  That's where I am as I write this. But more on AZ later.


October 20, 2008 In a few days I'll be back in Las Vegas. It seems like it's been so long, almost a year, since I've felt the excitement of the "City That Never Sleeps". I hear the gaming floor calling my name.

There's a birthday party to attend and a fetish ball too. And I get to see some friends again, and meet some that I've chatted with for years online but have never met.

And from Las Vegas, I'm headed back to the desert in southern AZ. Again, I'll spend some time with friends and hope to meet another online friend or two. I had hoped to hook up with a photographer there to do some photos for this site but it doesn't look like it's gonna happen.

As always, I'll continue to watch my email and do my regular website updates while I'm away. I may even do some web camming (on that kinky social networking site some of you also belong to) while away.

If anything exciting happens .. and I'm sure it will ..  I'll let you know all about it! And I'm sure there will be photos to share.


October 14, 2008 Well, ya just never know who looks at (and in this case, listens to) your online stuff. I've had this little video on YouTube for the last couple years. It's more of a slide show than a video really .. made up of still images dissolving into each other, and put to music. As of today, the video has received over 56,000 views.

I was informed today by YouTube that my video has been blocked because of a copyright infringement claim against the audio track by UMG. Although I was able to quickly replace the audio with a copyright-free song provided by YouTube, the video just isn't the same.

The song in question was ''November Rain"  .. one of my favorite songs.

Was I wrong to use it?  Absolutely .. and I sincerely apologize to GnR for doing that. I guess I thought of it more as a tribute to an awesome song.

And it doesn't matter if they took exception with my use of the song because I'm a T-girl or not .. I apologize to the band, Universal Music Group and/or the song owner. 

And for the record, I still think Mr. Rose is kinda cute!


October 10, 2008 Now I'm starting to worry. I know you didn't come to this site to hear more gloom and doom about what's going on with the world economy but this is finally starting to scare me, and it may impact this website.

I've booked and paid for a trip to the desert for later this month, and will certainly have a great time in both Las Vegas and southern Arizona, but if I had realized that things would get this bad, I really  wouldn't  have done this one.

And for the first time, I'm seriously considering making this site into a pay site to help pay for the operating costs and to keep the wardrobe fresh. Anyone want to provide me with some high-level legal advice regarding this?

Although the federal election here in Canada on the 14th should be inconsequential, the one in the US in November can cause the pendulum to swing so far in the other direction that it flies off into oblivion. Stop the insanity!

If I'm going to have to start selling my cheap ass on street corners, I'm going to need lots of fishnets, and there are costs associated with that. *giggling*

On a more positive note, I've just published a photo album that is a little more "personal" than the stuff I've been sharing. Hope you like it .. and as always, your feedback is appreciated.


September 30, 2008 Wow .. the financial world may be falling apart but the fetish events just keep happening.

In addition to the events I mentioned below, Northbound Leather is holding it's big annual event at The Docks in Toronto on 10/25. If it didn't conflict with my Las Vegas plans, I'd be there. But in case you can attend, check it out here: Xposé

Also "CAPITOL PUNISHMENT: The Inaugural Washington DC Fetish Ball" is happening  on October 12th .. Columbus Day weekend in the US or Thanksgiving weekend here in Canada. One of the producers of this event is Nicotine .. a gorgeous fetish model that I'm familiar with from one of the BDSM community websites I belong to. 

And ... a large fetish event is happening in Detroit MI on November 7th-9th and is hosted by Tim Woodward Chief Editor of Skin Two Magazine. Check out Exotica

I really missed the boat on the pre-planning this year, but am already updating my 2009 calendar. 
 

   

And lastly, my friends at The Simpsons and Burger King seem to think this is what I should look like .. and frankly, I'm flattered!  *giggles*







September 24, 2008 Flights are booked and rooms are reserved for the Fetish & Fantasy Halloween Ball in Las Vegas. My barbie will be joining Kim and I, and we hope to meet up with Nicole, Lee Ann and Tricia there. Now I just have to decide what to wear! I'm thinking that latex would be appropriate. Do you agree? hehe

Photo gallery update: I've been doing photos at a frenzied pace lately and have lots of albums to share with you in the upcoming weeks. Although I'd love to share them all with you right now, I'll continue adding a new album every Friday. As always, your comments are appreciated.


September 10, 2008 Well, fall is approaching fast and it's time to start thinking about doing some travelling. Here are a few things I'm thinking about attending during what's left of 2008.

Fall Harvest in Kansas City: http://fallharvest.org/  My friend Renica is one of the organizers of an event that I expect will be totally awesome.

Las Vegas for Halloween: Insanity on the strip. Wow! http://www.halloweenball.com/event08.shtml

Sable's get-together in Dallas: Sable and aisling are putting together a great opportunity for the people from Alt to get together. Included is a night in the dungeon. Saturday, Nov 29, 2008 in Dallas, TX. Alt people can find details here: TS/TV Munches 


September 3, 2008 Happy Birthday seleenak.com!!  This website is one year old today!

In the last year, it's grown from nothing to something small and insignificant ... hahaha! But it's grown, and continues to grow, and I'm happy with the progress.

Oh sure, I had visions of something bigger and more popular by this time but reality showed me that nothing comes easy. There are just so many sites out there that offer more than mine does.

You see, this site falls into a category that only appeals to a small segment of the surfing public. She-male sites, with cocks and boobies everywhere, attract the "show me it all and show me now" group. And the advice-based groups have their own market. The strictly-bondage sites cater to specific interests and are quite popular too. And other personal sites feature girls who are younger and much prettier than me.

It seems that I  offer slightly higher quality images and a flare for style that might be a little above the average, but that's about it. 

Would I have done anything differently in hindsight? Not really but I had hoped that by now the site would have found a narrower scope  based on the kind of stuff I enjoy doing and the feedback I get. But my interests haven't become focused and the feedback has been light.

I worry sometimes that I appear arrogant, and the all-about-me thing is something I struggle with. Since this site really is all about me, it's hard not to come across this way ... but please know it's a little out of character for me being the center of attention .. even on my own website.

I've tried some things here that have worked, and tried some things that haven't worked .. and I learned lots and continue to learn .. to learn a little about me and a little about you.

Soooo ... are there changes planned for the next year? Yes. Not sure what they are yet, but things will likely change. Will this become a pay site?  Possibly, but the free content you see today will not decrease. The small-ish mouse-over pics would continue here although larger, hi-resolution, easily savable photos might be available for a small subscription fee. Will it become a "leg site", featuring mostly just stockings, heels, feet? Maybe. Will it become more x-rated? Possibly, but not likely. Will it vanish completely?  That's possible too. But I look forward to whatever the next year brings, whatever that may be.

In closing, thank you so much for helping me to keep this thing alive. At this time in my life, it's quite important to me and whether you get some dressing tips from my images or a sexual thrill from them, I'm so glad you keep coming back. 

*kisses*

August 12, 2008 Well .. I'm back to doing weekly updates to my Photo Gallery again! I just published one, have three "in the can" and have ideas for many others. In a couple of the photo sets I'm wearing something more formal; in the third I'm wearing  latex.

My friend Michaela has moved to Buenos Aries. Many of you knew her as "Hailleigh", formerly of Toronto. We correspond regularly and she seems to be adjusting to the new culture. And the culture that she describes is quite different. It sounds quite scary to me but Michaela has a lot more courage than I do.

I wish her well, and know she'll succeed there but I can't help but worry about her.


August 6, 2008 Whiney Bimbo Rant

Maybe it's the "dog days of summer". Maybe it's the next step in my evolution. Maybe I've been looking in the wrong places. Maybe it's my new-found freedom (I have a lot more available time now). Maybe it's the difficult July gone by. But my motivation and creativity are at a low point. Thank gawd for Kim. She's always been the most consistent, most supportive force in my life.

I know I'm motivated by commitment. When I worked, I was committed to my job, my company, and I think I did well. And I was looking for this project, this little website, to take it's place. It has, and it's hasn't.

One thing I learned about doing this site .... I'm doing it alone. Although I find it exciting, that excitement is hard to maintain when everyone else seems indifferent. I know, if I'm not doing it for myself I shouldn't be doing it at all. And maybe that's the harsh reality.

So I need to dig down to find something in here that "turns my crank". Something that keeps me going.

It may be time for some changes. I've been thinking long and hard lately about my chatroom .. the one here on this site. It may have outlived it's usefulness. I dunno.

The message board that I scrapped several months ago. I've learned a lot about website building in the last year  and could now come up with something that's much more user-friendly. Maybe it needs to come back. I dunno.

Business. The commitment and excitement I might feel when I'm providing a service could be all the motivation I need. A pay site? Merchandise sales? Photog services? I dunno, but rest assured that if I venture into this area, I'll be totally professional.

Hmmm .. excitement!  Maybe that's it. I'm beginning to feel that if I don't generate some soon ... well, you know.

My site is coming up on it's one year anniversary in a couple weeks and I've gone from an average of 6 hits per day in the first month to just under 150 hits per day now, and I've had over 17,000 people enter via my main page.  Okay, but not great.

Please know that I'm aware  I'm behind on my Photo Gallery updates, but I've shot quite a bit yet don't feel that I've done anything worthy of being here.

So .. change the site or change my attitude regarding it. Something's needs to change. I owe it to you .. and to myself. 


July 24, 2008 Social networking rant

Well, I've done it again .. even though I promised myself that I wouldn't. I've joined yet another social networking website.

Not that many years ago, girls like me felt alone .. as though they were the only one's with this passion. Contact magazines and adult bookstores provided the only opportunity to meet others, and it wasn't pretty.

Then along came computers and telecommunications,  and everything changed. Bulletin boards and IRC chat quickly illustrated that there are others like us out there. And they weren't all the stereotypical "SheMales" with the gigantic implants and huge cocks. Feelings of optimism and excitement sweep over us. Phone line connections gave us the opportunity to connect to others but the time necessary for modems to connect and slow download speeds meant we had to stop and think about where we were going before we went there.

The high speed connection and the Internet emerged. And we then had the ability to perv more websites in a minute that we could in an entire evening. And everyone's fingers was trying to find our purses, try to squeeze money from us.

Social networking sites, sites where people of similar interests can share and socialize, began to spring up .. and the number of them out there continues to grow, even today. The dust hasn't settled yet, and no winners have been declared in the race to be THE networking site.

So much for the "history according to Bimbo". 

I have my hands full. I have a Yahoo360 presence I'd like to put to sleep (except that it brings a fair amount of traffic to this website), a URNA profile I look in on every month of so, a YouTube video account, a Facebook profile for my male side, an Alt dot com membership (that has given me the most  real life contacts as well as my very best, and very worst, chatroom experiences), and Instant Messaging profiles on both MSN and Yahoo. I still belong to several Yahoo "special interest" groups but always fall behind on their posts. I've also turned down numerous requests to "Join Me" on countless other sites. And I have this website ... photo gallery updates, bi-weekly chat and this blog. It's the thing I'm most committed to right now.

So therein lies my dilemma. I've joined another one. So now there's one more online community for me to neglect. And I hate that ... because I've always done my very best to be attentive to those who I'm connected to. At one time it felt overwhelming but now it just saddens me. I'm really not like this! When someone speaks to me, I answer!

I expect FetLife  to be yet another place where I have to keep fending off requests to meet at the drop of a hat. But who knows ... just maybe it'll be the "special one".   After all, a very interesting guy suggested it to me.

So, please bear with me, but until I figure out where I really need to be, I'm keeping a presence in too many places for my own good.

Rant mode is now off

 
July 20, 2008

Wow! What a crazy few weeks it's been. An emotional rollercoaster.

Toronto Pride Week

Toronto Pride was awesome. Got to spend some time with old friends and met some new ones too. Wandered the streets of Toronto a little, had a stretch limo tour of the city, spent some time with my friends at Northbound Leather and drank a few Mai Tai's (thanks doll!).

Bunny, Alicia and Winnie made their annual pilgrimage to Toronto and seeing them again was awesome. Bunny did the long, long drive again from NC and I cherished every minute I spent with her. Alicia and Winnie again came in from MI and brought Kimmie along too. It was so nice to meet Kimmie and to see Winnie and Alicia again.

Also got to meet My barbie. She was everything I thought she'd be and I look forward to spending much more time with her. After a frustrating plane ride from the Pacific Northwest, she arrived unflustered. We did manage to get some time to do a photo shoot together (please see the "My barbie" album in the "Domme" section of the Photo Gallery).

Lola also made the trip from the West Coast, and although her plane ride was a little more sane than barbie's, car rental issues left her in a very difficult situation and was never really resolved. Lola is very cool and seems to have fallen in love with Toronto .. kinda surprising since the San Francisco scene is in her backyard. I guess this says a lot about the way Toronto opens her arms to girls like us.

Hailleigh was in town again too for her last hurrah before her move to South America. Although we didn't spend as much time together as we should have, I'm really gonna miss her and wish her all the best. Hopefully, she'll return to Canada occasionally but in the interim I hope to stay in touch via email.

Ran into Jazmine and Jennie downtown. Although we've chatted online a little, meeting them both was very cool. They're a big part of the Toronto scene and I expect to see them both again in my "prowlings" .. haha!!

And I finally got to meet Tonya. She lives in the city and met up with us at our hotel. I've always enjoyed her posts in Sarah Lynn's "Powder Room" on Alt dot com, and finally meeting her was very cool.

Sadly though, I missed meeting the elusive Melan. Hopefully next time. And Sarah Lynn from Windsor, and Delila from Michigan were unable to join us this year. Next year sweeties!

This annual Pride thing, for me at least, is really more about the people than the event itself. Although checking out the clubs is okay, I did all my drinking and dancing 'til dawn when I was much younger and am really not into it these days. Whispering sweet nothings in a dark, quiet piano bar is more my style now, I guess.

I also broke my rule about remaining low-key in public. Bunny, barbie and I ended up in the local newspaper. Although I really do like the photo, I'm really much too private for that. But it was before dark and we were on our way to meet the girls for dinner .. typically over-dressed. Once Toronto Sun photoagain, it felt like a freak show .. and we were the freaks.  *giggles* But ce la vie! There was no disrespect towards us at all, and many friendly comments .. .especially from women. Maybe it's time I change my look in an attempt to "pass" ... nawwwww! In my opinion, there's nothing I, or many of my "sisters", could do to come close to appearing like an attractive woman. And presenting as the average "today's woman"  is just not something that interests me. I'm sure most TV/CD's can relate to this although most TS's (pre-op, post-op or non-op) would strongly disagree. I just prefer times when women never left the house without hosiery and makeup ... regardless of the time of day or season. Sandals and bare feet were left for the beach  .. and glamorous was what you were or, at least, tried to be, and not  something you occasionally "did". I guess it's obvious that for some of us, it's all about the dressing. 

My darling Kim had the awesome idea of a limo tour of the city so our friends from out of town could see a little more than just the Pride district so she made the arrangements, and with financial support from My barbie, around 10 of us spent a couple hours in a stretch SUV limousine. We stopped a few times for photos and smoke breaks at various locations mostly around the waterfront. Thankfully I was already familiar with the areas we visited because at one point I was distracted by someone's hand under my skirt (Winnie, you little slut!  You're the best!)

Dinner with the girlsI also got a huge compliment from George, the boss at Northbound Leather. At their meet-and-greet, he complimented my legs. Now this is a guy who spends his days in the presence of Enza, a simply gorgeous woman with  world-class legs ... needless to say I was very honored. I hope to see him again at NBL's Fall Bash at the Docks. But the Northbound event was great ... store shelves were overflowing, snacks and drinks were available with both bondage and single tail whip demo's going on concurrently.  Oh .. and did I mention the "naughty nurse"? Yikes!

A Visit From Our Friends from the Desert

Just had enough time back at home after Pride to unpack, straighten up the house, restock the refrigerator and booze cooler before heading to the airport to pick up our friends. We had as awesome time with them as we always do and look forward to seeing them again in a couple short months.

 

Someone Special

Someone very important to me passed away. Although I already miss her lots, I'll eventually move on and the great memories will last forever. Rest in Peace, sweetie.

 

July 8, 2008 "you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone"  Joni Mitchell, 1970

June 5, 2008 Well, I've decided to start updating my blog again. Not sure why. Maybe it's therapeutic to some degree to put thoughts down in print.  Maybe it's just another place to vent or to share excitement. I don't know but I'm giving it another try.

And I'm not doing this for feedback .. I've given up on that! I've wrestled with the reasons behind the lack of feedback I get. A comment or two every couple weeks seems disproportionate to the number of visitors I get. In fact, even those closest to me rarely provide feedback or comments.

"The handwriting is on the wall, Seleena!"

The fun, maybe even the thrill, in doing this was to try to understand and maybe even see into the hearts and souls of the faceless people who visit. But I now understand that you won't permit that. You're more of a mystery to me than I am to you, and it looks like you're going to remain that way. So I'm moving forward without you  *giggles*  So there!


Jan 4, 2008 Wow .. Anne Stonebrook signed my Guestbook today. Imagine that!  My website!! I'm truly honored. She's my favorite fet/bondage model of all time, and although no longer in the business, I believe her work is already considered "classic" and will live forever. Got to meet her back in the fall and I immediately fell head over heels for the person behind the persona. I've accumulated a little collection of latexwear (and those delicious ballet boots) from her in the last year or two. I think I need to post an album of this stuff in my Photo Gallery.
 
But I really don't do justice to anything she's worn .. except maybe for the little "bulge" that is uniquely mine. :-)

Do you suppose Anne would object to a small "tribute" album on my little website?


Dec 31, 2007 Happy New Year!! Well at the suggestion of some, I've been rather quiet in updating this blog ("Seleena, if you don't have something relevant to say, it might be better to say nothing!") but as 2007 draws to a close, I feel compelled to say a few words.

First off, 2007 has been a slightly trying year. I've struggled just a bit to find my place in the world, and the creations of this website is part of that search. Thank gawd my sweetheart is here with me, and together we move forward. On a personal level, I spent too much doing things that are not important to me and too little time doing the things that are. The all-consuming 9 to 5 made it difficult sometimes to be the spouse, the friend and the lover that I desire to be.
I lost an old friend, and nearly lost another ... but I got to meet new friends too! I was honored to meet Angel, buffy, hailleigh, Jade, Ross, bunny, Winnie, Sarah, Alicia, Dita, chelle and Delila, and I feel a connection to all of them that only someone in this lifestyle can feel. I also met "My barbie"! :-) Got to spend some time with dearest friends (and serious hottie's) Sara and Mark, although 3 visits in a year is not nearly enough.  :-(

In 2008, my free time increases dramatically. It's a journey that Kim and I have worked so hard for. We expect to travel a bit more, get our lives organized and into a bit of a  routine that allows us to be as impulsive as the situation dictates *giggles*. But regardless of who's doing what between our legs, she's all that's important to me.

I plan some changes to this website. The message board experiment was a failure and will be removed, my chatroom availability will increase, I'll install proper Photo Gallery software to save wear and tear on your "back" button and will try to include some dialog with each photo album explaining the situation or my feelings when the photos were taken.  I'd love to expand my Friends page .. not many volunteers to date (thank you barbie and Stephanie!) and to do this I might have to solicit. I'd love to include some female content here too (any volunteers?).

I'm still coming to grips with the lack of input I receive about the site and it's content. But I'll move forward, for the most part, on my own and let the hits count gauge my success.

Thank you everyone for keeping this site alive. It's important to me to think that my URL is bookmarked on a few computers and the occasional mouse click here puts a smile on someone's face.

Happy New Year!  May 2008 be a safe and prosperous year for you, and may it bring you all the kinkiness you desire!

Nov 23, 2007 I recently received a couple photo requests. Look for some "by request" albums to appear here soon.
Thanks "D"!  *hugs*


Nov 5, 2007 Hmmm .. let's talk about the future, the future of this website. Although my friends have been very helpful and very supportive, the feedback I've been getting outside my circle of friends has been very light. So although I'm having fun here, I'm really now sure how I'm doing in your eyes. But I fully realize that if this site was really really exciting, more would be compelled to comment. So, I'll continue to use my own judgment .. at least for now.
Both the chatroom and message board are very under utilized and I'm wondering if there might be technical issues for some people that prevent them from participating. Time will tell but I'm renaming "Seleena's Private Chatroom" to "Seleena's Chatroom", just in case the word "Private" is making the room seem off limits to anyone. 
I'm also thinking of asking a few others to contribute to my "Friends" page. Barbie's getting lonely there all by her self  :)
Am I impatient?  You know it!


Oct 14, 2007 Decided that my current pattern of regular blog entries are likely of little interest to most and likely sound much too "self serving"..  So I'm scaling back here and will not post blog entries unless there's something worthwhile to post.


Oct 13, 2007 My Hooters uniform arrived on Thursday and it's time to take some photos today.
I wasn't sure if I could pull off the look, and am still not after seeing the pics, but I guess they'll appear here anyway. Thought that the look needed a nametag so I went to the computer and quickly made one up. I ended up wearing it all day .. webcam on Alt dot com, stuff around the house, photos. And I found the knee high 5 1/2" heel boots to be quite comfortable after 15 hours of wear.


Oct 9,2007 I spent some incredible time chatting online with Barbie and Ross .. mmmm! And I exchanged email with Alexis Tyrell. It would be so awesome if she would contribute a photo to my "Friends" page (you know which photo I'm thinking of, don't ya hon?).
I'm learning that the life of a "web bimbo" is challenging, In many things that we do in life, there is some kind of feedback. No so in this world. My daily hits are up and down like a yo-yo and my feedback is nearly non-existent. So I have no real idea how I'm doing. I guess I should stop thinking about this and just go with the flow .. albeit a flow I have to create myself. A commitment to add a new photo album or video each week might be a start. And a wide variety of content might also be wise. Different flavors of wardrobe, Domme pics, subbie pics, bondage. I really hope I don't have to start showing my .. well, you know .. to start getting a reaction! But seriously, I understand my content is very light at this point and am committed to increase it regularly.  Please don' t give up on me.


Oct 8, 2007 Happy Thanksgiving to my Canadian friends. We all do have a lot to be thankful for .. regardless of who you choose to thank.
Although the number of hits on this site is improving steadily, few people are signing my guest book and my requests for feedback have pretty much gone unanswered. I'd much  rather hear bad feedback than no feedback at all. So I'll have to think of ways to engage people .. or maybe just lessen my expectation. Maybe a poll would be easier .. you know, I ask a direct question and you click "yes", click "no", "select A B or C". Or maybe it's too early to be thinking about this.


Oct 7, 2007 I got scurrying around the house this morning and missed the 10:00 start of my bi-weekly chatroom time. If you came here at 10:00 and found no chatroom, please accept my apologies. It was 10:06 before it came to life. Luckily for me, my two fav sweeties, Barbie and QQ patiently waited and appeared just as soon as I did.
I'm not gonna kiss and tell, but whew! The discussion was soooo erotic.
I notice that lots of hits on this site are coming from my friends at "Trannies in Trouble" http://tranniesintrouble.com/ via a reciprocal link to Sandra's site. I hope I'm not disappointing the bondage fans from there. Since I'm a huge bondage fan too, I think I should mention that clearly on my "Welcome" page as well my "About Me". Sounds like it's time to add some bondage photo content too.
Today's outfit: ruby pushup bra, Hanes Alive tan (somewhat shiny) pantyhose (panties? what panties?), animal print sleeveless top, stretch black mini, animal print 5 1/2" heel ankle strap pumps.


Oct 6, 2007 I got to chat briefly with my Australian friend Angie in the GX chatroom on Alt dot com. It's been a long time .. so glad to hear, and see, that she's okay. She told me she had viewed this website. I'm a little nervous about that because Angie has great taste and knows quality ... and I'm not sure what I've done so far measures up. But she politely told me she loved it .. and I'll believe her, out of necessity. Maybe she'll have some suggestions for improvement.
I turned my webcam a couple times later in the day. The weather here has been unusually warm, nearly hot, and the temperature inside to too warm to appear on cam fully dressed .. lol .. so I appeared in only a strapless bra, corset, thong, FF stockings and thigh-high boots. Not exactly my usual elegant cam-wear but I got no complaints   *giggles* Then proceeded to turn the air condition back on.


Oct 3, 2007 I tried my best to make it happen, but it looks like Kim and I will not be able to attend the Northbound Leather "Switch" event on Oct 20th. This is the big one .. a not-to-be-missed event ( http://www.northbound.com/english/index.taf ). I broke the news to our friend hailleigh tonight but, as expected, the slutty girl was very understanding.
I haven't seen hailleigh since Toronto Pride way back in June, and the time we spent together then was quite limited. But things will improve in the near future. I told her about my website and asked her to critique it. But it would be fab if she decides some day to contribute to the "Guests" page.
Getting this site moving is slower than I had expected (damned search engine robots!). I went to my chatroom here tonight at 7:00 and got no visitors at all .. but my sweetheart Kim dropped by for a few minutes to keep me company. 

 
Sept 30, 2007 well, the search engines can now index my site; hope it's ready for prime time!
I had my first real (unprovoked) visitor in my chatroom today. "QQ", thanks for stopping by to chat with me. You're a sweetie!
Spend an hour or so on webcam in the chatroom of my favorite Alternative Lifestyle site. Emotions and attitudes are running high there.


Sept 29, 2007 I'm trying to decide when to go live with this website. I'm currently preventing the search engines from indexing the site and the visitors to date are only those I've told about the site .. those I consider friends. Although I've asked for feedback, I'm not getting too much (thanks Ross for telling me like it is!)


Sept 28, 2007 It's my friend BarbieGirls's birthday!  She just turned 39 years old again. Although I wasn't able to help her celebrate it in person (3,000 miles separates us), Nicole and I gave her a somewhat severe birthday spanking in the Gender Exchange chatroom at Alt dot com. Hope she's able to sit comfortably this morning.  *giggles*


Sept 27, 2007 Picked up my favorite heels at the shoe repair shop. Very nice job and quite inexpensive. Actually, I just realized that I'm wearing those very same  heels in the banner photo above. The new heel tips are only slightly thicker than the original one and I'm blown away at how much of a difference it makes in the wearability .. but when you're always pushing the limited of heel height, a little means a lot. I'll spend several hours in them this weekend to ensure I don't need to move them to the "bedroom only" closet.


Sept 26, 2007 I won an eBay auction today for a black "Hooters" uniform. Black top, black shorts, typical Hooters "Tamara" pantyhose, white slouch socks. On the advice of the seller, I bought size "small" .. yikes, this might be a bit extreme but we'll see how it goes. Although wearing running shoes with it might be fun, typically T-girls like me can't wear running shoes and maintain the right  balance. The effect of high heels is to lessen the distance between the tips of the toes and the heels (the higher the heel, the more pronounced the effect is) thereby making the foot appear smaller .. more "lady-like. Running shoes don't do this, so since I'll likely wear heels with the uniform, a black uniform seemed best. A photo album will appear here somewhere down the road.


Sept 24, 2007
Kim found a local shoe repair shop! Dropped off my favorite heels this afternoon. Although these heels are pretty extreme, he never batted an eye. Pickup on Thursday.


Sept 21, 2007 Put on a slinky wet-look red dress, black pantyhose and open-toe strappy black shoe (with chrome stiletto heels) and spent a few hours on webcam in the chatroom at Alt dot com. Had fun but stayed up too late, and had to deal with a guy who was starting to become a little obsessive. I'm always on the watch for behavior that seems unusual. It might just have been a vigorous display of affection but you can never be too careful.


Sept 20, 2007 Chatted with my friend hailleigh about an upcoming event in Toronto on Oct 20th. Northbound Leather's biggest annual party is called "Switch" this year. I need to decide soon if it's possible to attend. The thought of "double-dating" with hailleigh and her lover is sooo appealing. And the party will surely be awesome .. very elaborate, very fetishy, starts at 9:00pm and ends at 6:00am .. only in Toronto!


Sept 17, 2007 Back to work  ...yuk!

Sept 14, 2007 While unpacking for the AZ trip, I again noticed that the folks at the airport (TSA) have again went through my girlie stuff.  Everything rearranged and my precious photo of my bondage model friend was a bit crinkled. Damn. I have to wonder what the TSA people think when they open a suitcase like mine. sheesh.
On close inspection I notice that the tip on my favorite pumps (black patent, 6" heels from "Tony Shoes") didn't survive the trip. Does anybody repair shoes these days?


Sept 13, 2007 After tearful goodbyes at the airport, got on the plane to return home

Sept 12, 2007 Visited Mount Lemon AZ .. very picturesque and a refreshing change from the 100°+ temperatures down in the city

Sept 10, 2007 Drove out to Casa Grande in the morning to meet a retired fetish/bondage  model who I've been buying lots of clothes from recently. She's even more gorgeous now than when she worked in the industry and is just the sweetest woman. When you see gorgeous people in videos you always wonder about their character and the size of their egos. She was a refreshing surprise .. truly a classy lady.  I understand how life takes us all in different directions and have total respect for her decision to leave the industry, but it's a great loss nonetheless.

Then it was "Photo Time". Did several photo sets with Mark, "photographer extraordinaire". I'm thrilled with the results and will be posting a few teasers here soon. Thank you Mark .. you're a sweetie! Then spent a few hours watching the girls on webcam on the Alternative Lifestyle website we frequent. T-girls like me get a bit of attention on webcam there but there's nothing like "the real deal". They had hundreds of viewers and got lots of great compliments.


Sept 8, 2007 It's vacation time!  My "love of my life" and I left for Arizona to spend several days with our best friends.  After a long day spent in the air and waiting around airports, we arrived safe and sound to a gorgeous day.
