Movie: The Secretary, February 22rd, Vancouver, BC

The movie "The Secretary" is older now, yet it is still a provocative film that puts BDSM (power based relationships) to the big screen.  I first watched it with a large group of fellow perverts when it first debuted in Vancouver in 2002.

I highly suggest either renting the movie to watch at home while you play with yourself or your lover, or coming out on February 22 to see it again in a public theater.

The Rio Theatre & Black Dog Video present an 11pm Friday night screening of Steven Shainberg's SECRETARY starring James Spader & Maggie Gyllenhaal.

Admission is $6 in film related costume ($8 without).  Dress up in costume for $1 off the $8 ticket price and join the fun!

Licensed screening with bar service (19+ only; 2 pieces of ID required).

A young woman, recently released from a mental hospital, gets a job as a secretary to a demanding lawyer, where their employer-employee relationship turns into a sexual, sadomasochistic one.

HIV Testing in BC

HIV Testing

How can I get tested and where?

Bookmark and Share
Ask for an HIV test as part of a routine health check at your next doctor’s appointment, and your results should be back in about a week. If don’t want to use your full name, you can use your initials (non-nominal testing).

Who should get tested and why?

HIV testing can be considered part of your regular care. HIV can be transmitted by vaginal, anal, or even oral sex (especially unprotected sex), sharing drug equipment, or during pregnancy, birthing, or breastfeeding. This means that just about everyone should think about getting an HIV test!
The sooner someone gets a test, the sooner HIV can be detected and treatment can begin. Treatment protects your immune system and lowers the chances of passing HIV on to others. Treatment is simpler and more effective than ever and means many people can live strong, healthy lives.



  1. Ask for a test at your next doctor’s appointment or visit a drop-in medical clinic.
  2. Find a public health clinic - testing is easily available, often with a drop-in visit. Find a clinic in British Columbia organized by city, service, or days of the week open, at SmartSexResource.com or call HealthLinkBC toll-free, 24/7, at 8-1-1.
  3. Drop-in for a rapid “point-of-care” test at select Fraser Health clinics on select days (not open on statutory holidays). Test results are available within minutes and no CareCard is required.

Dirty Girls Play Party Sat. February 2


Imagine your best sleepover pajama party when you were younger. Without pajamas. As you arrive,you will step inside a place where the cares and the stresses of the day are left at the door. The lighting is soft, the colours are soft, the bedding and furniture are all soft. (The girls are soft too)


DIRTY GIRLS PLAY PARTY AND WORKSHOP "Flirtatious Banter"
SATURDAY FEBRUARY 2
7 - 8:30 PM & 9 - 1 AM
Coquitlam (and not transit accessible)
(2500 sq foot home, two floors, three restrooms, hot tub, parking, fully catered, multi media room porn and sound)

$40 party / $50 workshop+party $25 workshop only
Bring your own toys & towel.
RESERVATIONS:  jennifer@libidoevents.com
No experience necessary - just a desire to hang out with lovely women



The best part about a DIRTY GIRLS party is that it's a light, fun, carefree evening where almost anything and everything goes; a place to explore your voyeuristic or exhibitionist side (or both). If you're just at the beginning of your adventurous journey, it's a great place to dip a toe into the water and decide if you want to dive in deep or wade gently into the shallows. You can be naked as the day you were born, decked out in lace, satin or silk, wrapped in leather, shiny and sparkly in glitter, or festooned in feathers. Choose something that makes you feel beautiful, because by the end of the evening it will be pulsing through you. Beauty. Softness. Laughter. Joy.

No two women are the same and no two DIRTY GIRLS parties are the same.  There will surely be massage oil at some point, and the chocolate fountain might well be bubbling in the kitchen. Anything is better dipped in chocolate.

A DIRTY GIRL'S party is a feast for all the senses. Delicious appetizers, fragrant candles and massage oils, giggles and whimpers, touches as bountiful as you might desire or none at all if you're merely a contented voyeur, and pretty girls of all ages, shapes and colors everywhere.

It's like a secret sorority with no particular pledge and no particular uniform. The only expectation is that you leave your inhibitions at the door and venture boldly where no man has gone before. It's a girl thing. Try it. You'll like it.




++Our Sex Machines the Monkey Rocker and the Sybian will be set up with attachments on sale; they range in price from $35-$75 CASH and once you buy it, you just continue to bring it back to LL so that you can ride each and every visit on your own personal insertable. The ride is free; it is the attachment piece you must buy. We have a number in stock, both singles and double insertables.

TICKETS:  Send an E-Transfer done directly from your own banks home page for the amount due, plus $3 as a service charge to jennifer@libidoevents.com This is secure between you and your bank, the money is sent to my email address and it is fast, done in minutes from you to me.  Payment is non refundable and non transferable.

CTV Morning Show Edmonton

While in Edmonton, City TV invited me onto their set (Live) for the morning show to discuss ethical non monogamy and my work with Taboo.  Here is the link to the archived interview.

Before heading off to work my ass off teaching 22 classes for the 2012 Taboo Sex Show Calgary and Edmonton editions, I was interviewed briefly by phone as part of this lovely little article.  Enjoy!

Alternatives to monogamy - Vancouver Sun Article

Last month a lovely woman by the name of Erika Thorkelson contacted me and asked if she could interview me on non monogamy.  Before agreeing to talk further with her, I checked in to see what angle her story was coming from as I wanted to ensure we were discussing "ethical" non monogamy. Seeing as Erika was writing a small article on such a juicy topic, I found myself willing to give her some of my time.

"From her office in Coquitlam, Skrukwa counsels couples on ethically opening up their relationships. She advocates keeping lines of communication open to a partner’s desires without judgment."



Read the rest of this interview here.

The article was written for the entertainment section and led to my being offered a new job contract discussing open relationships in the Post Secondary School System.   

Read over what was written and if after reading you become inspired to want to talk with me about your relationship style, non monogamy, opening up a pre existing relationship, or how to move forward to find a partner, this would be a wonderful time to make contact.

Skrukwa counsels couples on ethically opening up their relationships. She advocates keeping lines of communication open to a partner’s desires without judgment.


Currently I am offering 60 minute phone calls for only $50 for Relationship Talk.  We can talk alone, or you can have your partner on the line as well. 

Deciding to do anything other than monogamy can be daunting, however with a little sexpert help, I can assist you in making the process easier to navigate and understand.

Test for HIV in the Privacy of Your Home

I know I would use a home HIV test and I know that people, many many people, would also welcome this.  Finally, a chance to take further responsibility for ones own health and for access to be even more possible to others.  A home HIV test is to be celebrated and I am clapping madly right now.



News like OraQuick, the HIV test that was recently unanimously approved by the FDA for over-the-counter use.

OraQuick, produced by the Pennsylvania-based pharmaceutical company OraSure Technologies, is the first rapid HIV testing product available in the United States for receiving instant results at home. Traditionally, to get an HIV test, one would have to go to a doctor’s office or sexual health clinic, have their cheeks swabbed for saliva samples or have a blood sample taken, or else purchase a kit to take their own sample at home and send the results into a lab for testing. Results, depending on the procedure and the sophistication of the laboratory interpreting the results, could take anywhere from sixty seconds to several weeks. OraQuick, however, utilizes similar measures taken in a clinical setting—the test itself is one of the rapid tests used by medical professionals in their offices—but without the visit to the doctor.

To take an OraQuick test, individuals swab their upper and lower gums and insert the sample into a vial of test fluid, all provided by the test. If they test positive for HIV, two colored lines develop on the test strip—similar to a home pregnancy test—after 20 to 40 minutes. Also included in the package is an information booklet that directs test-takers to call the OraQuick HIV support center (available 24 hours a day, seven days a week and bilingual in English and Spanish) for counselling on their test results and referrals to further medical services.

The test has a high rate (99.98%) of specificity, meaning that it accurately produces a negative result when the test taker is HIV-negative almost 100% of the time; its sensitivity—the number of cases where the test will show a positive result when the individual is HIV-positive—is less high with a percentage of 92.98%. In practice, the FDA estimates that this means that the test would come back positive for one person out of 5000 who was actually HIV-negative, while it could show as many as one out of every 12 HIV-positive test-takers as negative for the virus.

While the rate of false negatives is not insubstantial, the FDA reported in their approval that they did not believe this was a reason not to approve the test. They believed that its over-the-counter availability would make the test much more accessible to individuals who might never otherwise choose to get tested, and so could still substantially contribute to determining previously unknown cases of infection.

As a product that could soon be available in such mainstream locations as CVS, Walgreens, and Walmart, this new test has the potential to remove a number of the barriers that currently exist to prevent individuals from getting tested. For many, these include an inability to visit the doctor for a variety of reasons—lack of health insurance, cannot take time off of work, cannot find childcare—and the stigma of visiting a sexual health or HIV clinic.

At the same time, however, there are still a number of challenges individuals might face in attempting to access OraQuick over-the-counter. Because of the intense stigma that individuals with HIV/AIDS are burdened with, and because of the fear and misunderstanding of the conditions and methods of transmission, asking for or even being seen with an HIV test might be too large a feat for many individuals. As well, there are financial issues to consider as the home test is more expensive than the one that is sold to medical professionals; while the latter costs $17.50, the former is expected to be higher in price, up to $60. Though this price increase is stated by the company to pay for the additional costs of the trained, around the clock hotline, it may still be too costly for many of those most in need of the tests.

Additionally, though this point has appeared nowhere in the discussions of this over-the-counter test development, it should be noted that it is conceivable that, as has happened with the over-the-counter availability of emergency contraception, pharmacies might attempt to use “conscience clauses” as a means of not offering the test. Because of HIV’s link with sexual activity and intravenous drug use, as well as its stereotypical ties to the gay male community, religious or conservative providers may decide not to carry the test, thus further limiting individuals’ abilities to access HIV testing.

The OraQuick test is not perfect: the higher rate of false negatives is concerning in that individuals may believe themselves to be uninfected and go on to become sick or infect more people through their ignorance, and the access issues are real. However, if this test can be used to bring more individuals into the doctor’s office, and if it can open conversations between patients and their providers or individuals and their partners, it will be performing a great service. If its availability can normalize this aspect of sexual health even a little bit, or can make individuals less afraid of doing what is healthy for them because they are concerned about who might find out, it will be an important moment in the history of sexual health in this country. Testing is one of the primary means of fighting HIV infection, and this test’s ability to bring more people more knowledge about their status has the potential to identify thousands of additional cases of HIV each year, bringing people towards the proper safer sex and health-promoting strategies they should practice to keep themselves healthy.

To read more about OraQuick and the FDA’s approval, visit the Huffington Post article  or see Medpage’s announcement.

Thursday Highlights

Yesterday was an unusual day of sorts. Jason who is rarely sick enough to take a day off, spent the day in bed being rather unwell. Of course with my husband home bound my day of work was shot, I just never get anything completed when he's around as he is such a handsome distraction.

In the evening I headed to the Lounge to see a coaching client and then Deviant Dining, a great group gathered to eat and to laugh their asses off. The odd humor we shared last night is partly what made the event so wonderful indeed.

After dinner and late now, at 9, my friend Marilyn packed me into her car and drove me into the city for the grand opening of a new adult store. We arrived to Sweet around 9:30 and it was packed with people eating, drinking and making purchases from the new place. While there we ran into a fantastic bunch of people that we both know so we hung out with them and plotted future kinky encounters.

With luck obviously on my side, I won a huge gift basket as well and even managed to buy a swanky new pair of panties from their new line of clothing the store is carrying thanks to my pal being their buyer.

Sexy Acronym

In an email I received today from a man who was describing to me the sort of woman he and his wife would like to meet for a threeway, he wrote that the woman should be "KVBW".

Unknowing what that acronym stood for, I just had to inquire.

KVBW is short for Kinky Versatile Bi Woman

And that my friends was news to me.

An Anonymous Online Survey on Women’s Online Porn Habits and Masturbation

Sex Educator Jamye Waxman, M.Ed and History and Women’s Studies Professor Hugo Schwyzer, PhD are conducting a short, anonymous survey on online pornography and its impact on women’s masturbation habits.

The survey will take between 10 and 15 minutes to complete, and will be the initial part of what they hope will be a larger study. The answers obtained from this survey will help them determine where to take their research and which aspects to focus on (e.g. body image, self-pleasure, etc.).

and life continues on

Wow time flies, it seems I have been negligent in posting for three whole months. Tsk tsk, this was not intentional on my behalf. It happened more due to my being caught up in life, you know how that goes I am sure.

So let's bring you up to speed on where life has taken me, I'll keep it brief and just hit the high points. Then as I start to blog again more often, you'll have some frame of reference for things.

Currently I have a head and chest cold and Jason is over due for his post vasectomy cum in a cup appointment.

Last month I turned 39 years old and celebrated with a trip to Las Vegas. While in Vegas, Jason and I finally were married, it was all previously planned and we even did it live on the internet. The ceremony was progressive and exactly what we wanted it to be for us. Want to watch it, write me and I'll send you the link.

The end of this month Pickle will be two, its rather remarkable how fast he is growing up. My daughter will be eighteen soon and the difference between raising them both is just night and day.

The Lounge turned four this month already, it's kinda crazy. Over 2000 members at this point, this next year is a time of great change for my professionally.

My relationships continue strong and steady. Allena's cancer has been kicked and she made the decision to forgo augmentation and during it all she met someone super special to her. Amy remains a spit fire and so not one to fit into a label and the rest of the tribe are quite seriously more of a handful than I am.

Ben makes me laugh and reminds me to give myself a break now and again, I admire his outlook on life. Marilyn is the friend I wish I had twenty years ago, she has wisdom that I cherish. Sheryl shows me that one woman is capable of so much on her own. Victoria's struggles are an obvious reminder to me to take the time to listen to others, she is a source of strength. Judy is proof that regardless of age, love and a reshaping of ones life is always possible. Lisa has shown me a steady relationship of friendship based on respect. Clive hears me and always has the time, his family values are admirable and his advice is sound.

My health has been on a slow climb out of the depths of hell thankfully, but not without much suffering, piles of money spent on drugs and a lot of medical professionals helping me. To be fair, Jason carried me through the worst of it, and when he was unable to do it any longer, the hospital was there for me to be admitted to.

We did a complete remodel on the outside of our home as well and the renovation process was enough to make me feel like running away. But it's done now and damn, does it ever look fantastic. Both Jason and the companies we hired did a way better job than I ever could have hope for.

My Taboo Sex Show touring schedule for 2011 - 2012 started last week with a four day teaching gig in Calgary. Later this week, I head off to Edmonton to do it all over again, then no more shows till January with Taboo.

It has been a time of great introspection for me these past few months, I feel as though I am coming out of a fog. The rat race had kept me busy for so long, that slowing long enough to check in with me and take care of my family and priorities was just suddenly a must do item for me.
