Let’s Talk About Sex…
Ok, we know…it’s a sensitive subject…for EVERYONE …(except maybe the Kardashians…) but the truth is, it’s likely that the spark hasn’t sparked much since you had children, and the responsibilities of just keeping your head above water in this economy probably exhaust you before you’ve had time to think about getting frisky. But that doesn’t mean you have to put your sex life on the back burner. 
In their book Stop Calling him “Honey” and Start Having Sex… authors Maggie Arana and Julienne Davis tackle head on the questions and issues that may be getting in your way. According to their web site: “The greatest problem in long-term relationships is a diminished sex life, yet until now, no book has addressed the real cause of this problem. STOP CALLING HIM “HONEY” AND START HAVING SEX is the first to tackle why sexual boredom happens in the first place and to offer real solutions to rekindle desire. ”
Challenging the status quo, authors Julienne Davis and Maggie Arana maintain that using the word “honey” is the first signpost down the road to a sexual desert in our relationships. By doing so, we lose our individuality, our gender, and our differentness from our mate. When a couple uses the ubiquitous “honey” instead of their names, they blur the lines of their separate identities, and sexual attraction cannot survive. Once sweet, innocent “honey” infects our relationships, it becomes the deadly killer of desire.
This book is not about just a simple word however, but about how we relate to our partner in many ways. Our words, our gestures, our habits, even our eye contact-all of this affects our sexuality. STOP CALLING HIM “HONEY” AND START HAVING SEX is a revolutionary concept: It’s the everyday things we say and do that sabotage our sexual chemistry, and calling him “honey” is only the beginning.
If this sounds familiar, don’t stew about it or forget about it or think like there is something wrong with YOU…read the book and get your sexy on. Available at Barnes & Noble Bookstores and Amazon.com
It always has bothered me when a boyfriend stopped calling me by my name and instead substituted some generic form of affection… like “honey,” “hun,” etc… I have a name and I expect you to remember it… “honey” and “hun” tell me you forgot my name, but realize I am someone of importance, although probably of fading importance, since you cannot recall my name. I am also very leery of those that come bearing many gifts… 1st thought that comes to mind is “what did you wrong that requires you to apologize with many (unsolicited) gifts???
Using real names rather than nicknames indeed helps in strenghtening your bond with each other. There is something special in our names and it defines a lot of us and who we are and giving importance to that gives each other a feeling of security.
