Reviewers Spotlight - Airen Wolf and Antipova

I would LOVE to explore the Seychelles but I would have to have a LOT more money than I currently have! I have seen travel shows that show off the islands and WOW, the beaches there look like sugar frosted perfection.

My immediate goal is to get my body back into proper health. I am not looking for a bikini body but I would like to move fluidly and feel strong again. I hate feeling like I am moving like an old woman! In my mind I'm in my early 20s but my body acts like I am ready for retirement...not cool.

Right now my favorite game is Diablo3...that's subject to change after I solve inferno level though. My gamer boi keeps me well supplied and busy in that respect. I dearly love the first and second Diablo games as well. They, along with Darkstone by Delphine, were my introduction to online RPG. Before that I was a grid paper and figurines player.

As a family we play League of Legends. We have five players which makes up one full team and we like to get in a few games at night just before bed. We are almost a solid team versus AI on intermediate level...we haven't gotten into the PVP aspect of the game yet. We're still noobs.

Now my favorite game of all time is Lineage/Lineage II by NCSoft. The game is frustrating, evil and totally insidious but I love the damned thing so much that we actually own our own Lineage 1.5 server!

My favorite franchise is Blizzard Entertainment though...never met a Blizzard game I didn't like!

Ummmm lets see, I have been looking for recipes and stuff for the vegetables in my garden...mainly red/yellow/orange peppers and tomatoes (holy crap do we have a lot of tomatoes).

So I might do a recipe for tasty stuffed peppers/tomato, or something with green tomatoes.
I found a recipe for stuffed cabbage that looks divine. It calls for barley and currants instead of meat and rice but it's balanced to be a meal choice rather than a side dish. Vegetarian cuisine for the win! Plus, it uses a fresh tomato sauce so I get to use my tomatoes as well. win/win

Hmmmm assignments as in reviews? My favorite would have to be the Vr4.5 by Jopen I was so surprised that I liked it because my least favorite review was for the Vr2 also by Jopen.
To be fair it's not the Vr2's fault that I had just gotten the G-Ki AND the Zini Ran all in one order. I just couldn't find anything really special and amazing about the Vr2 after that line up of toys. It's a great little toy but all three are very similar in terms of vibration strength and variety...and the Ran and G-ki offered other features that I enjoyed more.
Why was the Vr2 my least favorite review? I had to write a review on a good toy that I had so wanted to absolutely adore....it was a free review item for having written 200 reviews! SUCH a let down.

No my guys don't find it weird but they really don't look at it like they share me. Mostly they look at it as the opportunity to be with me. Sharing implies that I am a commodity or, I dunno, that I might be used up. Their words, mind you, not mine.

Sigel has always loved to watch me...and watching me with another guy is one of his biggest kinks. While he really didn't intend on me falling in love with Arch he orchestrated the 'hook-up' (his words again) and really doesn't regret it because Arch is a wonderful person, great partner and father. It was Sigel who realized as Arch walked into our lives that he belonged there. It hasn't been easy for Sigel but then he never expected it to be. The fact is it taught him that the very worst could happen (I could love another man) and still I wouldn't leave him. It was a powerful and life changing realization for him.

Arch loved me from afar for quite a while before we even broached the subject of feelings because he also liked Sigel and loved my daughters. He never wanted to be a home wrecker and none of us had ever heard of Polyamory so we just let it be a close friendship for many years. When I started opening up to him about my marriage and the fact that we had had many threesomes (and more-somes) he started to open up about how he felt. Add to the mix that he was a virgin and it was explosive.

Over time, and through some really good times and bad, the guys have come to rely on each other and they are amazing partners and co-parents. I have a heart and shoulder to cry on no matter what it going on and they have me and each other for the same. This relationship is about SO much more than "sharing" a partner, so no they don't find it weird. What they find weird is that so many people are willing to live miserably joined forever to one person they really don't even want to come home from work to! Imagine not even wanting to vacation together....THAT to all of us is just plain creepy and pointless.

My screen name means "Of Air" (Air-en) meaning that I belong to the Air tribe and that quarter is most easily manipulated by me spiritually. Trees, wind spirits and I have a close connection...the butterfly is our totem. Raven our ally.
MoonWolf was a poster that I had hanging on my wall. It was a beautiful, stark picture of a large grey wolf half shadowed just gazing at the moon. My girlfriend, at the time, remarked that It looked like she pictured me. My personal totem and power animal has always been the wolf and the name sort of stuck. I had a series of vivid dreams of the wolf in the poster making it's way to the edge of the cliff, dancing slowly and thoughtfully. To me it was the journey of the fool or the true lesson of the Tarot. One night a beautiful female voice told me that the wolf was called, "Shadow Dark Dancer" and that she was me.
After that I was Airen MoonWolf and I was more comfortable with that name than my given name which is Angela. I have worked very hard to bring my conflict to an end and for the most part I'm comfortable being called either Airen or Angie. I already love the Dark Dancer now I am learning to like the person standing quietly in the light. Quite a journey, no?

I have been actually living polyamorously for about 5 years. I have always had the capacity to form intense relationships with many people, loving them fully and celebrating them, but only with this triad is everything in the open and not called "friendship". I have loved often and intensely but in these two men I have found real connection to myself while seeing myself through their eyes.
I think I would have chosen this lifestyle if I had felt it was ok and offered...and Sigel would have been a happier man much earlier in our shared life. It would seem that I am quite a handful to deal with and having someone who loves me and who isn't afraid to tell me I'm full of shit is a blessing to him!

Perhaps we'll give that a try when we explore character development...we could also do setting the setting at the same time. They kinda go hand in hand, don't they?

If they are silicone, metal or glass I'll share more with you! LOL Seriously though, I enjoy writing the reviews and really enjoy testing the products.

I have often thought about just doing the deed and getting my sociology degree and becoming a counselor with a focus on sexually related issues. I love helping people broaden their sexual horizons. I could give seminars on what it takes to be sexually open, be in a loving and supportive D/s relationship, developing true intimacy....gosh the list goes on.
It's something I am seriously considering actually.

As for how I talk to my kids about sex. To be honest I allow society to give me the opening and then I RUN with it. If there's a show on tv or a documentary on Netflix about sex and teenagers I invite my girls (14 and 16) to sit down with me and we talk about every part of the show. I will point out the things the producers might not be saying and shoot down the fallacies and misleading arguments. My girls know I am not against them having sex, I am against them being pressured into sex and also against them not practicing safer sex. I don't want them racing out to have sex but I won't judge them to be "ruined" or "bad" if they do.
I am a very openly sexual person and I have NO problem discussing anything sexual with them except what my personal fantasies are or what I like in bed. That is not and will never be their concern. I have, however, counseled my daughters about the fetishes they have seen on the net or heard about...I answer their questions as fully as I can without giving my opinions beyond whether it's a safe practice or not.
My girls have had a VERY comprehensive Sex ED/Health education and are very much aware of my views on teenage sex. They know I will provide condoms and proper health care regardless of how I may feel about the issue. I think that's the most important part about keeping the lines of communication open...I try very hard to make it "safe" for them to come to me about anything.
So far they aren't actively seeking relationships but I am sure that when they begin they will make decisions based from a position of power and knowledge. I'll be here to help them however and whenever they need me to.

I would say read reviews, lots of them! Ask questions, find a mentor- and find one that you feel you can communicate with, a mentor is a special animal here at EF. I would also say poke around the site and investigate all the special tutorials compiled by JR to explain lots of the different activities. Also don't be afraid of the EF staff (green boxes around their avatars) they are helpful and will answer just about any question you might have. After all that? Go read some reviews! LOL Seriously, it's that important.

I LOVE reviewing toys. I burned myself nearly to a crisp reviewing toys! I have regained my former enthusiasm and I think it's showing in my reviews...they had gotten kinda robotic for a while. For any new reviewer I would caution against going too fast and furious, (even though I never listened when seasoned toy users told me the same thing!) I like helping people and feeling useful. I love reading about other people's experiences with the toys and they still help me decide how to spend my money.
