Never said I hated bread. My ass and thighs on the other hand…

And water is awesome. Drink tons of it! It’s the best invention pre-dating sliced bread. lol

[Serzi]

And bread sucks. I avoid bread and all forms of it.

I hate having to eat. It is a huge financial, mental, physical, and emotional burden on my life. So, I put down the freaking books, calculators, and scales. I eat only when I need to and I work out whenever possible. There will be days where I indulge, but not many. I do enjoy food, I just hate having to eat. Diets are miserable because it makes me focus on something I absolutely hate and I’ve never seen much change counting calories.

So, I work out frequently and I mainly eat just to replenish. It’s never been easier to control my weight and stress levels than now. lol

[Serzi]

My sentiments exactly, THANK YOU. lmao

And, yes, if you detected a tinge of bitterness then you are correct. I got into an argument w/ a cheerleader bitching about pole shorts vs. spanks and I am still rather pissed off. But I don’t hate cheerleaders, I just hate double standards and hypocrisy. lol

[Serzi]

Exactly my point. Cheerleading is not that different from pole and is usually an amazing display of agility/athleticism. However, it is considered socially acceptable. Such that it is a time honored tradition to have cheerleading squads as early as middle school. My point is this:

If seeing upskirt shots of underage girls performing cartwheels/backflips and such can be disregarded for the sake of their athleticism, then what is it about pole that is such a danger to society? Not a damn thing.

This sale has ended. 😉

And it is tough coming off the heels of a long term relationship. Not that I pity her but, just by how she left in a hurry and then came back, I can tell she’s probably been stressing over a confrontation w/ you too. It’s tough being human. lol

[Serzi]

Awesome. 🙂

I mean it’s not like you’ll be buddies or anything but, still, isn’t it a big weight off your shoulders to see eye-to-eye? Takes the edge off a bit. Keeps the mind from blowing it outta proportion. And now she knows you aren’t intimidated by her or in the mood for little girl games. Assertiveness kicks ass! 😉

When you finally know, deep down, that you’re right. With or w/out validation from others. You know there’s nothing wrong w/ what you’re doing, right? No one can change your mind on that. Well, let ’em have their ignorance if that’s what they want. It doesn’t change YOU or make you wrong. They are the ones missing out on something truly extraordinary. Be open for them to come to you if they are curious or decide they may have been too judgmental. Don’t force or coerce because that is something only insecure people do. We are all, however, entitled to our own opinion. Free will, it is a bitch as much as it is a blessing. 😉

And I am proud to be an openly sensual-style poler. My husband is proud of me. I don’t do it just for him or for others. I do it because I know that I enjoy celebrating this body I was given and expressing myself however I choose to. Flaunt it while you got it, you won’t have it forever! 😉

[Serzi]

To be honest, I think this Christa chick is just expressing her preferred tastes w/out respecting that of others.

I’ve seen some impressive exits from a yogini. Sad-girl drop, figurehead/hood-ornament, flying ballerina, knee-hold, hollie drop, switcheroo shoulder-mount deathlay crazy stuff. Play around until you find something you are comfortable w/ or feel you can build upon. 🙂

I meant the screw that puts it into spin-mode may still be too tight when you actually want it there. You may have stripped the screw too if you put it too tight and that could be why it still moves in static. In terms of unsafe, I meant aside from the noise. Does it wobble or feel unbalanced. I would loosen all the screws, make sure the pole is locked into the base properly, and troubleshoot by tightenting the screws gradually and evenly. Does your pole look/feel level when you spin it or does it seem to teeter ever so slightly when you turn it in your hands. If none of this applies, I would blame the bearings.
