Is the Google Curtain Falling on UCTMW?

-->

In the midst of a busy work day yesterday, Slave got an ominous email from our “host” here at UCTMW:

In the coming weeks, we'll no longer allow blogs that contain sexually explicit or graphic nude images or video. We'll still allow nudity presented in artistic, educational, documentary, or scientific contexts, or where there are other substantial benefits to the public from not taking action on the content.

The new policy will go into effect on the 23rd of March 2015. After this policy goes into effect, Google will restrict access to any blog identified as being in violation of our revised policy. No content will be deleted, but only blog authors and those with whom they have expressly shared the blog will be able to see the content we've made private.

I guess I should not be too surprised that a gigantic corporate entity that has provided cyber-space to us gratis for all these years has suddenly woken up to the idea that there’s nothing in it for them in providing a free home for the semi-explicit ramblings of the likes of me.  But what was confusing to me is whether UCTMW really does face the google axe.

Is this place really a home for “sexually explicit or graphic nude images ”?

There are the occasional images of Mistress’s lush and seductive curves and soft, oh so touchable skin. Those very soft core types of  images are part of what UCTMW has been over these last nearly 7 years of  postings.  We’ve gone through 1547 posts, and more than 1,400,000 page views here. And, at least as far as I can tell, Western civilization has not crumbled any more expeditiously than before we arrived here in our little corner of the internet.

I'd like to think that we fall into the category of "artistic" presentation of nudity. And couldn't it be said that the presentation of a near retirement age guy getting as much action as I do provides the sort of inspiration that is a "substantial benefit to the public?"  But how do I find the faceless drone at google who decides whether or not to pull our plug, so I can explain that "benefit". Google probably already has launched an algorhythmn to handle that task. It knows it when it scans it!

I suppose it's possible for us to re-launch at another host – some of you transitioned to Wordpress some time ago. We do have a UCTMW site over at Instagram where we’ve posted images from this blog and shared others. They don’t seem to have a problem with racy photos, let alone Mistress’s lush and tempting curves.

 I really do need some advice here. I would love to avoid the hassle of starting over in some new “home”. Slave is too old to be a refugee, carting my laptop and all the belongings I can carry over some cyber world version of an  icy mountain pass, like Julie Andrews and those annoying brats  in the Sound of Music.

Here’s what I want to know:

-       what exactly constitutes “sexually explicit or graphic nude images”? Does it include a tastefully depicted image of Mistress’s rump, as long as here clean shaven folds are not tossed in for good measure? What about a nipple or two? And when I posted those lovely photos of Mistress modeling her V-Day undies…. Did that cross the line?

-       We’ve always foregone images of actual sexual coupling here. And lord knows I have not shown any photos of Slave’s “work-a-day” cock. (Except a couple of times when shielded by its cage). So what constitutes a “ sexually explicit  or graphic nude image”?

-       If Slave wakes up on March 23 – the day when google's new policy goes into effect – and discovers UCTMW is shut off except for special invitees, is it too late to promote some alternative venue?

-       Is there a way to move existing content from this blog to a new host? Or will the world forever be deprived of all this valuable “content” once the google curtain falls?

Please share any thoughts or ideas !!!!!

Hunkered Down For the Weekend

When the temperatures are hovering south of the + sign, the best thing to do is huddle beneath a warm blanket and cling to your Mistress.

That may be our philosophy this weekend, particularly because the snow is coming down again.  I am already coming up with excuses not to leave the house, at least until this afternoon.

It certainly worked last night, when Slave came home from work to find Mistress in an alluring black nightie, already warm and toasty under our life saving electric blanket.

What better way to start the weekend than with some early evening nooky with your loving Mistress.

She did have lunch with her lover Jay yesterday afternoon.  But because of cold weather school closings here in the frozen heartland, Jay's house was unavailable for any mid-day delight....

"It was nice to see him Slave, but it's been nearly three weeks now...."

I can tell Mistress is missing her alternative and ultra-buff lover. Hopefully the weather in the coming week will get back to something more normal for a number of reasons, including opportunities for Mistress to engage in sanctioned extra-curricular activities.

Meanwhile, she will have to make do with her Slave's more traditional sexual stylings.

Hopefully I can rise to the occasion.

Brrrrrr.....

Mistress has been a bit under the weather this week.... a winter cold and cough. Combine that with the first snow and the coldest temperatures of the winter and it's been hard to pry her from our warm and toasty bed this week.

She's hoping her head cold clears up so she can enjoy a delightful nooner in Friday with her lover Jay.  It's been several weeks, and I can tell that there is some pent up demand for his more athletic brand of sexual exploits.

Now it's snowing again, and Slave is annoyed he has to go to work in all of it. And there will be some shoveling to do even before I head to the office.

Sure would be nice to take a snow day and force Mistress to stay in bed all day.

If only.....

(Hope you enjoy the final shot of Mistress in her new V-Day panties.)

Well Adjusted Kinksters?

Here at the UCTMW World HQ, Mistress and slave enjoyed a low key Sunday, catching up on some work, and spending a lot of time in bed. Mistress even let me take another photo of her in her new V-Day panties to share in response to widespread reader demand (Well at least one of you asked for more!)

Meanwhile, in the mainstream media, where sharing shots of your wife’s firm and hot ass are not quite as prevalent, the world is still focused on the premier of “50 Shades”, with coverage from all sorts of angles. One I noticed was an article posted on Psychology Today titled The Surprising Psychology of BDSM. It concluded that only about 2% of us engage in bondage or physical discipline in real life, but that more than a majority of us dabble in domination or submission in our fantasy lives:

1. How many people are into S&M?

According to researchers, the number likely falls somewhere between 2 percent and 62 percent. That’s right: Somewhere between 2 percent and 62 percent. A pollster who published numbers like that would be looking for a new job. But when you’re asking people about their sex habits, the wording of the question makes all the difference.

On the low end, Juliet Richters and colleagues (2008) asked a large sample of Australians whether they had “been involved in B&D or S&M” in the past 12 months. Only 1.3 percent of women and 2.2 percent of men said yes.

On the high end, Christian Joyal and colleagues (2015) asked over 1,500 women and men about their sexual fantasies. 64.6 percent of women and 53.3 percent of men reported fantasies about being dominated sexually—and 46.7 percent of women and 59.6 percent of men reported fantasies about dominating someone sexually.

So while most of you out there reserve domination and submission to hot masturbatory otherwise  undisclosed fantasies, it’s not something particularly unusual.  And while the M/f style of submission may be slightly more prevalent, the research shows that more than 40% of women harbor a secret longing for some hapless male to grovel at their feet or be chained to their bed to serve their carnal needs.

Does this mean that more of us are fucked up than we’d like to admit. Not at all, dear readers.  The research also shows that habitual BDSM’ers are better adjusted psychologically than your average vanilla guy or lady:

Pamela Connolly (2006) compared BDSM practitioners to published norms on 10 psychological disorders. Compared to the normative samples, BDSM practitioners had lower levels of depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), psychological sadism, psychological masochism, borderline pathology, and paranoia. (They showed equal levels of obsessive-compulsive disorder and higher levels of dissociation and narcissism.)

Similarly, Andreas Wismeijer and Marcel van Assen (2013) compared BDSM practitioners to non-BDSM-practitioners on major personality traits. Their results showed that in comparison to non-practitioners, BDSM practitioners exhibited higher levels of extraversion, conscientiousness, openness to experience, and subjective well-being. Practitioners also showed lower levels of neuroticism and rejection sensitivity. The one negative trait that emerged? BDSM practitioners showed lower levels of agreeableness than non-practitioners.

So maybe we’re not all that “agreeable”…. Less likely to just go along with the flow? But isn’t that better than being depressed, paranoid or anxious?

There are trade-offs, even for those of us who’d rather lick our devoted wives’ feet than go to a baseball game with the guys.
