Only well-heeled candidates need apply — a fetish club set to open in Norwich is seeking women workers to walk over excited punters.

The vacancies for so-called "trample hostesses" are being advertised in the city's Pottergate job centre and more than 20 women have already applied.

The new private members club, on Prince of Wales Road near the corner of St Vedast Street, is set to open in less than 10 weeks. Applicants who get their foot in the door will earn £100 a night from walking over club members in a variety of footwear.(Click here for more)

Reading erotica, in private or public, is hot, intimate, and educational

Reading aloud words you know will arouse a crowd is exciting, but also daunting. A few weeks ago, I took the stage at Williamsburg's Galapagos for their "Smut" series. I warmed them up with a fan letter from a guy who wants to go to a Yankees game with me and take turns spanking each other in the stands. The laughs came easily; then it was time for the smut.

I read my new story, "Spike," about a dominant woman who buys a set of high heels that make her feel extra-tough, then takes out her aggression (and affection) on her latest love slave, Jack. There's no tiptoeing around the fact that the tale is meant to titillate, not just because it uses words like cock, ass, and smack, but because it evokes raw human urges for attention, caretaking, lust, teasing, dominance, and submission.

One day I was talking to an old friend and lover, and in conversation he mentioned how, since we'd been apart, he'd gotten "more into doing the submissive thing."

That raised my eyebrow. "Um, sweetie, I don't know what you've been up to lately, but I'd have said you were pretty into the submissive thing back when we were fucking."

Oh, that wasn't really submissive. That was just being a little kinky." (Click here for more)

‘When people come to Club Noir it allows them to use their imagination and be themselves’

Tina and Madeline Warren perform a striptease act at Club Noir, the burlesque cabaret night which Tina co-founded. Tina lives in Glasgow, Madeline in London

TINA: “I wake up with a start at about six o’clock in the morning. I run Club Noir with Ian Single, and we prepare all day for that night. We are Scotland’s only burlesque club. Our show is about body cabaret – it’s very tongue-in-cheek, a bit rude at times, but never vulgar. (Click here for more)

Some people write "We're going to the BDSM Ball," and some write "W/we're going to the BDSM Ball." Which is it really? This so-called "Internet-Style" of writing is a convention of chatrooms but has become prevalent in other places.

The challenge is that when not in the chatroom, it can be confusing to readers who are unfamiliar with what it all means. Even worse, because it does not follow standard rules of English and is visually distracting, readers can become irritated and move on to something more agreeable. As a convention for chatrooms it is an useful mode of communication, but it may not be an effective communication style for other venues. (Click here for more)
