By Guest Writer, Elegy “Il n’y a point de passion plus égoïste que celle de la luxure.” (Marquis de Sade) As many wonderful and body accepting women before me have brought up, lingerie feels like one of the few frontiers of my body that is wholly mine. It’s something that is up to my sole [...]

Making Sense of Scents
By Guest Writer, Elegy I’ve got a sensitive nose, especially when it comes to most modern perfumes. You see, they use alcohol as their base, and I just. Can’t. STAND IT. 9 times out of 10, I’ll only smell the alcohol, with some notes of the intended scent. OMG, just douse yourself and carry [...]
We’re Taking Our Beauty Back
By Guest Writer, Elegy I know too many beautiful people who are not confident in themselves in the most superficial sense: how they look. It’s not their fault, everyone has their moments of weakness- even the people we admire as beautiful have things they want to change, even if just for a fleeting second. Nobody’s [...]
Little Bit o’ Red
By Guest Writer, Elegy My body tightened. Eyes wide, I felt my lips parting softly. I found myself placing them gently on each other before directing my attention to one in particular. I turned it over to read the description. After tracing the information over and over I realized I was just taking in words, [...]
Knock It Off
By Guest Writer, Elegy How do you feel about knock offs? My position didn’t so much evolve as much as sprout into blossomed existence after posing this question to a peer and being given this succinct gem: Personal style has nothing to do with designers. I appreciate the effort that is put into creating [...]
The Vanity Files
By Guest Writer, Elegy So as I mentioned earlier I have been in a bit of a funk, and as a result of that I slipped down the Hill of Shame; I stopped eating – I’m a depression induced starver as opposed to eater- and this time I could barely force myself to eat [...]
What do you do to get out of a funk?
By Guest Writer, Elegy What do you do to get out of a funk? Some people say “mind over matter” but I can’t help but wonder how many of those people are battling against their own mind, which seems determined to undermine our very efforts to get back on track by continually misfiring like a [...]
Sucking Big Butch Cock
By Guest Writer, Elegy I don’t know what it is about strap-ons and dildos that at times make me amorous. I am not interested in giving anything to a man, be he cis or trans- it has nothing to do with dick attraction. I can recognize that it’s not a penis. Honestly, I’ve found dildos [...]
“Find Your Voice” by Elegy
By Guest Writer, Elegy Find your voice. It’s a scary thought to some, I know. But what terrifies me the most is when your voice is comprised solely of whomever you’re dating or living with at the time. It’s disconcerting to say the least. You have no voice, you don’t even know who you are. [...]
Get Your High Horse Off My Pillow
By Guest Blogger, Elegy Can’t a girl just lay back and enjoy it without getting criticized all up in her bedroom? There’s been some words on a photo I posted to tumblr, originally from Card Carrying Lesbian, who got it from Gay Girls Guide. While it’s all well and good for it to not be [...]
On Love, When It Isn’t
By Guest Blogger, Elegy Have you ever gone back to someone who you know is bad for you? Or you don’t even go back to them, so much as they’ve appeared and you’ve allowed them in your life? You feel like an idiot, because how could you be so stupid as to let this person [...]
On Body-Modification, Independence, and Contradictions
By Guest Blogger, Elegy Let me start off by saying that I am a huge fan of body modification! Everything about it just fascinates me to no end, and it always incites a reaction from me, be it positive or negative- and I love that! Reactions remind me that I’m alive, that I’m not [...]
She Rides
I have some AWESOME news. I have finally convinced Elegy to “officially” join the CCL family of guest bloggers. She has consistently been a huge part of the CCL community through the comments section and has always shown humor, wit and common sense. All things we greatly prize here on CCL. So please, welcome [...]
