Babara DeAngelis in her book, "Are you the one for me?" devotes a whole chapter to how food affects oral sex , especially from the woman's viewpoint!

[Sun Jan 15 11:10:01 PST 2006] Cool_Dude

Bita, that could make you a pure macrobiotic!

[Sun Jan 15 11:15:16 PST 2006] arunima

does food effect sexual life in general ?

[Sun Jan 15 11:15:32 PST 2006] bita

i believe it does

[Sun Jan 15 11:15:57 PST 2006] bita

positive or negative depending on the vittles consumed

[Sun Jan 15 11:16:53 PST 2006] arunima

how ?

[Sun Jan 15 11:17:16 PST 2006] bita

energy levels, taste, appetite, smell.......many ways

[Sun Jan 15 11:18:54 PST 2006] arunima

that is what I am saying the whole world is non veg in general

[Sun Jan 15 11:19:17 PST 2006] bita

i dont think its meat persay........i think its other foods

[Sun Jan 15 11:19:41 PST 2006] bita

dairy, spices, additives, chemicals, sugar

[Sun Jan 15 11:20:14 PST 2006] bita

these foods are less natural than meat

[Sun Jan 15 11:20:39 PST 2006] bita

refined grain products as well

[Sun Jan 15 11:21:06 PST 2006] LInda

Arunima, Bita wrote an article about food and sex, I tried to look for the link to give it to you and I got temporarily disconnected from the chat

[Sun Jan 15 11:21:22 PST 2006] arunima

thnx

[Sun Jan 15 11:21:26 PST 2006] bita

i believe it is still up

[Sun Jan 15 11:21:50 PST 2006] arunima

I have not read it as yet

[Sun Jan 15 11:21:54 PST 2006] Cool_Dude

Barabara DeAngelis says that all of those strong tasting foods can be tasted in a man's sperm!

[Sun Jan 15 11:22:27 PST 2006] bita

indeed.........such as onions,garlic............anything with sulphur in it

[Sun Jan 15 11:23:34 PST 2006] arunima

yes that is not abnormal, considering the fact that it is an excretion

[Sun Jan 15 11:23:41 PST 2006] Cool_Dude

I know from experience that a woman sex organs can be free of animal foods smell!

[Sun Jan 15 11:24:09 PST 2006] bita

lets talk about goitrogens

[Sun Jan 15 11:24:46 PST 2006] bita

foods that contain anti thyroid factors

[Sun Jan 15 11:25:20 PST 2006] Cool_Dude

Can one make cheese from goitrogens milk?::biggrin

[Sun Jan 15 11:25:27 PST 2006] bita

as we know the thyroid regulates sexual desire

[Sun Jan 15 11:25:36 PST 2006] arunima

yes

[Sun Jan 15 11:26:15 PST 2006] bita

certain vittles contain goitrogens..........too many of these lowers sexdrive

[Sun Jan 15 11:26:30 PST 2006] arunima

that is truee thyroid regulates sexual desire

[Sun Jan 15 11:26:48 PST 2006] bita

the funny thing is, is that the foods on the list are healthy foods

[Sun Jan 15 11:29:12 PST 2006] bita

i seean overlap with goitrogen heavy foods and foods that produce odors "downstairs"

[Sun Jan 15 11:31:05 PST 2006] bita

Is anyone elsegoing to talk? ::tongue

[Sun Jan 15 11:32:20 PST 2006] klara

I'd like to ask about energies. I had a hysterectomy 13 years ago and have been told energy wise I still need to eat as if all were intact. What do you think?

[Sun Jan 15 11:33:23 PST 2006] bita

I would agree with that..........andi also believe that when one has something removed like this ovaries, or tubes tied.some sexual energy is lost

I understand the mind is the biggest sexual organ! more than anything else, no?

[Sun Jan 15 11:35:05 PST 2006] bita

i would agree...........being sexy and sensual is a state of mind.........u must believe it yourself if u want others to

[Sun Jan 15 11:35:49 PST 2006] klara

So how does food play here?

[Sun Jan 15 11:36:02 PST 2006] bita

right now, i'm being sensual

[Sun Jan 15 11:36:19 PST 2006] bita

eating foods that make you feel good andlook good

[Sun Jan 15 11:36:36 PST 2006] bita

real whole foods......homecooked

[Sun Jan 15 11:37:43 PST 2006] Cool_Dude

I've intentionally eaten less animal foods to help me to live more comfortably where appropriate relationships and sex are not easy to find!

[Sun Jan 15 11:38:37 PST 2006] bita

do u eat fish?

[Sun Jan 15 11:39:47 PST 2006] Cool_Dude

In I lived in NYC where there are literally millions of newcomers arriving and leaving every year, I would eat more fish and be more focused on sex and relationships!

[Sun Jan 15 11:40:21 PST 2006] bita

fish ishorny food, as i call it

[Sun Jan 15 11:41:33 PST 2006] Cool_Dude

meat:beef, lamb and pork poultry and especially eggs are hornier foods!

[Sun Jan 15 11:42:03 PST 2006] klara

Bita, what did you mean when you wrote that right now you are being sensual??

[Sun Jan 15 11:42:07 PST 2006] bita

indeed............crotch vittles

[Sun Jan 15 11:42:38 PST 2006] bita

i meant that everything can besexy or sensual if u livea life of sensuality like i do

[Sun Jan 15 11:42:48 PST 2006] bita

its a mind set

[Sun Jan 15 11:43:17 PST 2006] Cool_Dude

I've observed the gay comunity which eats alot of omlets and quiche and they want to get it on around the clock with multiple partners!

[Sun Jan 15 11:44:02 PST 2006] klara

so if you are living/eating/thinking as you do, how does what the other affect the relathionship. You eat/do all the sensual things, and if you're partner doesn't??

[Sun Jan 15 11:44:22 PST 2006] bita

indeed...its about me

[Sun Jan 15 11:44:36 PST 2006] Cool_Dude

boriiiing!

[Sun Jan 15 11:44:54 PST 2006] bita

i do it for me........as we all should

[Sun Jan 15 11:45:04 PST 2006] bita

personal journey of sorts

[Sun Jan 15 11:45:10 PST 2006] klara

a relationship involves two

[Sun Jan 15 11:45:51 PST 2006] Cool_Dude

And if you talk about it to others then maybe one or more of them becomes interested in you!@

[Sun Jan 15 11:45:52 PST 2006] bita

indeed.but being sensual is a relationshipwith youself

[Sun Jan 15 11:46:27 PST 2006] bita

first and foremost

[Sun Jan 15 11:46:38 PST 2006] Cool_Dude

leave that vibrator alone!

[Sun Jan 15 11:47:20 PST 2006] bita

I believe what I'm trying to say is greater than what certain folk can comprehend.

[Sun Jan 15 11:48:00 PST 2006] Cool_Dude

What are you trying to say, Bita?

[Sun Jan 15 11:48:49 PST 2006] bita

It's not about base animal need...........although thatis wonderful inits own right........i'm talking about knowing yourself intimately...........

I think being in a relationship opens up possibilities to self-discovery, brings on challenges that when left on your own you may not discover

[Sun Jan 15 11:52:43 PST 2006] bita

indeed..........but we can discover things soo as well

[Sun Jan 15 11:52:47 PST 2006] bita

solo

[Sun Jan 15 11:53:21 PST 2006] Cool_Dude

oooh solo, now you are talking!

Bita, at an energetic level, what is you opinion about the difference in a sexual relationship between a carnivorous couple and a vegan couple?

[Sun Jan 15 11:55:05 PST 2006] klara

what about a mixed couple?

[Sun Jan 15 11:55:37 PST 2006] LInda

I know that macro/vegan couples are more fertile

[Sun Jan 15 11:57:07 PST 2006] bita

i'd say that as long as they matched up, the energy would be good

[Sun Jan 15 11:57:27 PST 2006] bita

i thinks its individual

[Sun Jan 15 11:59:14 PST 2006] bita

sexually, thier styles might differ.and their needs

[Sun Jan 15 12:02:09 PST 2006] bita

what type of birth control does everyone use?

[Sun Jan 15 12:04:15 PST 2006] Cool_Dude

natural prophylatics is what I prefer!

[Sun Jan 15 12:07:36 PST 2006] klara

Guess I was fortunate - went through all of them, including pill, yet at a later age, starting at 35 got pregnant easily, tho had miscarriages in between, ended with 5 births by age of 46

[Sun Jan 15 12:08:00 PST 2006] arunima

[Sun Jan 15 12:10:04 PST 2006] klara

nah, my husband loved sex, and meat!!!

[Sun Jan 15 12:12:35 PST 2006] Cool_Dude

Well, it's lucky for him that you are not eating meat or you'd probably be living in S.F. and hanging out at women's biker bars!::biggrin

[Sun Jan 15 12:13:15 PST 2006] klara

I like bikes, don't care for bars and haven't a clue what biker bars are, don't think I want to know

[Sun Jan 15 12:14:01 PST 2006] arunima

I think sex for vegan and macro and non veges are all same,, only that I think the non veges are easily infertile

[Sun Jan 15 12:14:04 PST 2006] Cool_Dude

The second letter in your name might be a clue!

[Sun Jan 15 12:15:03 PST 2006] klara

I thought the whole scene of infertility had alot to do with all the chemicals that are being put in today's foods (sic)

[Sun Jan 15 12:15:05 PST 2006]

[Sun Jan 15 12:15:55 PST 2006] bita

pollution as well

[Sun Jan 15 12:16:12 PST 2006] Cool_Dude

that mostly and the high amount of sugar and dairy!

[Sun Jan 15 12:17:16 PST 2006] bita

many "vegetarians" subside on sugar and dairy

[Sun Jan 15 12:17:41 PST 2006] klara

we can control what we put into our mouths, how do we control the pollution we breath in

[Sun Jan 15 12:18:04 PST 2006] LInda

bita, how do you control what you breath in?

[Sun Jan 15 12:23:17 PST 2006] bita

by limiting where you go

[Sun Jan 15 12:23:51 PST 2006] klara

am I wrong, don't you live in NY?

[Sun Jan 15 12:24:05 PST 2006] LInda

also by the time of day.some hours have a higher density of pollution than others

[Sun Jan 15 12:24:25 PST 2006] Cool_Dude

or by passing laws against air polution and limiting the smoke in buildings and public places!

[Sun Jan 15 12:24:36 PST 2006] bita

I'm surprized, you mentioned in your article the relationship between the food, it's physical description and what it affects
