Two deaf people
got married. During the first week of marriage, they found they
were unable to communicate in the bedroom when they turn the lights
off because they can't see each other using sign language.
After several
nights of fumbling around and misunderstandings, the wife decides
to find a solution. "Honey," she signs, "Why don't we agree on
some simple signals? For instance, at night, if you want to have
sex with me, reach over and squeeze my right breast one time.
If you don't want to have sex, reach over and squeeze my left
breast one time."
The husband
thinks this is a great idea and signs back to his wife, "Great
idea, now if you want to have sex with me, reach over and pull
on penis one time." "If you don't want to have sex, reach over
and pull on my penis... fifty times."

Two- De-stressing The Wedding Night
Planning
a wedding can cause so much stress you lose sight of one
another. Often times couples are so focused on wedding details,
friends and family that they tend to feel disconnected from
one another.
When
the wedding night finally arrives, many couples feel a bit
awkward in trying to reconnect after so much focus on everything
else. Taking time to prevent some of the disconnect from
one another and a little preparation is always a good idea.

Time
Spent Before The Wedding
Keep
Dating
Most
likely you and your fiancée are saving money for the wedding
and going out together has been significantly reduced. However,
it might be wise to spend a little on treating yourselves to alone
time, where you do not discuss the wedding, rather you spend your
time talking about other, non-stressful things. Use this time
to flirt, have a glass of wine if it suits you and relax for a
candle lit, romantic dinner. Doing this before the wedding will
help you to stay connected and prevent feeling out of sorts on
your wedding night.
If
you can't go to a nice restaurant, take a stroll through a park
and have a picnic. The key here is not how much you spend on your
dates, but making sure you have them. This will also set the tone
for the marriage that your relationship is the priority, and that
even under stress, you can come together and enjoy each other's
company.
Declare
Wedding Free Times
Have
times that you set aside where the wedding is not the focus. Take
a weekend where you do nothing but focus on fun with one another.
Plan
Fun Activities Just For The Two Of You
Like
To Cook?
Spend time making a special meal together.
Feel
Like A Kid
Go to an amusement park and enjoy some childlike cutting loose.
Museums,
Aquariums, Zoos
Make plans to go to places that you only take out of town visitors
to. Often times there are many resources right in your own town
that afford a day or evening of fun and a way to cut loose.
Play
Some Games
Challenge your mate to a night of games: Pictionary, Scrabble,
Backgammon, even good old cards. Heck, for laughs try some Go
Fish! Also, if you want to play some naughty
games, check out our selection!
Have
A Movie Night
Don't just put in a movie, make it special, get out the popcorn,
snowcaps and rootbeer! Jazz up a night in front of the TV with
a comedy or romantic movie, and if you both have a favorite movie
you have not seen in years... see that! Nothing like a night with
the phone off the hook and some snuggley time.
Get
Outta Town!
Take a drive to a town that you don't know very well. Spend the
day discovering new shops and have a special lunch or dinner at
a new place. Make the drive an adventure. Talk about funny childhood
memories, play your favorite songs, talk about your fun times
as a couple and even play games together like the license plate
game.
Create
your own meal, dessert or cocktail together. Then make up
a name for it by combining your two names.
Write
love notes on the steamy mirror while your sweetie is in the
shower.
Make
your them their favorite childhood meal for dinner.
Take
turns reading aloud to each other from a book one chapter
each night.
Find
your love's car in a parking lot and tuck a love note under
the windshield wiper.
Call
your honey's favorite radio station and dedicate a song when
you know he or she is listening.
Stop
whatever you are doing and give your baby a big, wet kiss.
Things
To Avoid At The Wedding
Don't
Smash Cake On Their Face
This is so over done, it is passive aggressive, and the guests
are most often not amused. If you are looking for something funny
to do, try having the groom put the garter on his leg and have
the bride take it off for a laugh, or have the bride grab the
groom's tush during the first dance. These are loving, and humorous
acts. Things like this also catch the guests off guard and add
to the excitement.
Don't
Drink Too Much
Imagine the hangover the next morning, let alone the groom's ability
to get it up for the wedding night. There is no harm in getting
buzzed and having a good time, but getting ripped is awkward for
your guests and you risk ruining things by vomiting, passing out
or even getting into arguments.
Take
A Dance Lesson
Take some time to learn how to move on the dance floor. It can
make a fun date before the wedding and will make the ceremony
feel fun when you offer dazzling moves like a dip and twirl!
Write
Your Own Vows
Saying something personal to one another during the ceremony often
makes for some of the most moving weddings. You can make it short
and sweet and even read from a note so as to make it less stressful,
but just saying I love you without having the wedding officiant
telling you to makes it personal.
Making
A Honeymoon At Home
If
you are looking to have your wedding night, or even wanting to
make a romantic evening at home, here are some tips to make it
special.
Clean
Or Hire A Maid
Getting fresh bed sheets to new towels and a clean bathroom will
enhance the setting for a home honeymoon.
Stock
Up On Special Foods
Champagne, strawberries, chocolate and other romantic foods are
a great way to enjoy a romantic evening together.
Provide
Romantic Entertainment
From a romantic movie, book to music, make sure to enhance the
evening with special entertainment that you will both enjoy.
No
Phone or eMail
In this time of high tech we often make ourselves completely accessible
to all of life's stresses. Turn them off and devote the night
to one another.
Dress
Sensually
Dress in sexy boxers, lingerie or night gown. Make the night special
by dressing your best.

If
you enter my office, the first thing you are bound to notice is
my secretary Laxmi. She sits right outside my office facing the
main door and has been refusing to be moved from there. You will
notice her not just because she is out there in the front, but
because she has a personality and body which no one can ignore.
She is petite and very fair, has large black eyes and jet black
hair. She can say so many things with her eyes, just looking at
you. That is why a shy person like me...
But wait,
let me not get ahead of the story. The next thing(s) which you
are bound to notice depends on whether she is standing or sitting,
and whether she is facing you or has turned around. You know what
I mean. Well, now let’s move on...
One Sunday
afternoon, I was alone in the office. I had been away on tour
for almost a week and had returned only the previous evening.
Usually, when I work on a holiday - which I often do - I lock
the outer office door and work in my inner office. I have a rather
large couch in the inner area of my office to rest when I feel
tired. But that day I had left the outer door open on purpose
for I was waiting for my secretary.
The previous
evening, when she was leaving, I had requested her to come on
Sunday to attend to some urgent work. As I sat there, going through
the pile of papers on my table, I saw a shadow on my table and
looked up to see my secretary Laxmi, peering through the office
door.
As I looked
at her she said, “May I come in, sir?” “Please come in, Laxmi,”
I said, “I have called you for some personal work today.” I said.
What I did not say aloud was that she was welcome any time. She
was a watcher’s delight and, every day as she sat in the outer
office, I watched her beautiful behind all day through the one
way glass of my office. I get to see the front view, only when
she comes in.
Her presence
always excites me sexually. I had sensed that she felt the same
in my presence. However, matters had not progressed beyond flirting
when our fingertips touched during the course of work, sending
electrifying waves to my brain.
When this
incident happened, Laxmi had been with me for six months, minus
the 1 month leave she had taken recently and had joined only a
week back. Now as she entered my office, her blouse slipped a
few inches down from one shoulder. I realized that she was wearing
a beautifully embroidered bra under her semitransparent white
silk blouse. The edges of the bra and spaghetti thin elastic straps
formed a beautiful pattern, and were visible through the thin
translucent blouse material.
“I learned
from the office staff that you often come alone to office on Sundays.”
Laxmi said. “You wanted to meet me alone?” “Yes. Please lock the
door, so that we are not disturbed and then take a seat.” I invited
her. She turned the key in the lock without a question and came
and sat in front of me, resting her elbows on my tabletop and
joining her fingers under her chin. This way I had a closer view
of her milky, white breasts - one was partially hidden under the
blouse but the beautiful pattern on the other one was now clearly
visible at close range.
She saw where
I was looking, and her eyes quickly looked down at her own bosom.
But without making any move to lift the blouse back in its position
she looked back with smoldering eyes straight in mine. She knew
I was watching her breasts and she was clearly challenging me
to squeeze them. With that glance, in that moment I knew that
she and I were going to be full-fledged lovers before we left
office that afternoon.
This simple
exchange in glances immediately set things rolling.
Color started rising in her cheeks and I could feel the moment
was exciting her as much as it was exciting me. Her cheeks were
now a rosy pink and her eyes were sparkling with excitement.
I decided
it was high time to take the initiative that in most cases, even
a sexually aroused female wants the male to take. All of a sudden
I leaned forward across the table and inserted my index and middle
finger underneath her blouse and bra; I felt the soft yet taut,
fair surface of her breast, but withdrew my hand quickly before
she could react. Although my movements were a surprise to her,
her body had reacted involuntarily and thrust her breast forward
in anticipation.
As I quickly
withdrew my hand a gasp escaped her half-parted lips, it seemed
more out of disappointment than surprise. “I think an insect,
most probably an ant, has entered your bra. But it moved deeper,
before I could catch it.” “My god!” she exclaimed, “what will
I do now? What if the ant bites my soft breasts. You must have
felt how soft I am there.” It was obvious that she was responding
to my ploy positively. “We will have to look deeper under your
bra to catch it.” I said. “Please look wherever you think it is
necessary to look - but please remove the insect, please.”
She begged
and inserting her hand under her blouse bra began searching. I
got up from my chair and walked over so that I was behind her
chair. She leaned backwards and looked at me with her head thrown
back. I held her small but firm breasts in my palms and started
feeling under the fabric. “I will check both your breasts simultaneously,”
I said, “so that it should not run from one to the other as I
try to catch it.” “This is a very good idea,” said Laxmi, “please
take both of them and check thoroughly.” I cupped both her breasts
in my palms and started rubbing them gently. However, I did not
touch the area of her nipples directly.
“Did you catch
it?” she asked, “please catch it as early as possible.” “I think
the fabric is coming in the way...” I said. “Then remove it forthwith,”
she gave me full permission. Standing close to her, and with her
face turned up towards me, I noticed a tiny mole on her upper
lip. Her lips were half parted and her breathing had become faster.
My own breathing had become rather heavy in anticipation of the
promise of the wonderful afternoon of sex awaiting me.
I placed
my lips on hers and put only a slight pressure on them. This again
was not anticipated by her. In the brief second she realized that
I was kissing her, her lips had already started reacting involuntarily
by pressing back against my lips.
Laxmi invited
me into further action. Without a word, I instantly moved my hands
to her blouse and undid all the buttons. My action was so quick,
she was left gasping. Then slowly and deliberately, I pushed the
two open front pieces of her blouse aside, and pushing them a
few inches off her beautiful round shoulders, started examining
her bra-clad breasts methodically. An exotic perfume filled my
nostrils. She must have applied it under her arms. I touched the
skin between her cleavage tentatively with my fingers and then
moved them all over her bra.
Blood rushed
to her cheeks. I bent forward to get a better view and my cheek
almost touched hers. A few stray curls of her hair which had come
loose from her braid brushed against my cheek. Very tenderly I
squeezed her breasts. “Please check them thoroughly,” she whispered,
“I am really scared of insects.”
She raised
herself from the chair, so that I could slide the blouse down
her arms. In doing so her breasts jutted forward and outward.
I took off her blouse it had the exhilarating mixture of the scent
of the sweat from her armpits and the scent she had applied. I
caught her upturned chin and once again placed my lips on hers.
This time her response was quick and complete.
Before I had
time to pull back, she started a very wet and passionate kiss.
Losing control, I too started kissing back with equal fervor.
Our lips curled against each other and tiny sounds escaped at
intervals from our moist mouths. I started moving my palms over
her shoulders, which were now naked except for the bra straps.
I traced the straps down to the bra cups. It has always surprised
me that hard breasts have very soft skin. I moved my hands all
around them and then squeezed them again. She let go a sigh of
desire and slumped back against me.
I moved my
hands down towards her flat belly and started circling her navel
in a slow gentle motion. With this she moved out of the chair,
with a flurry of her dropped blouse showing me her beautiful slim
feminine figure. Her behind was flared slightly at the hips. I
had a full erection by this time, and she glanced directly at
my trouser front while closing in with me.
After she
had unbuttoned a couple of my shirt buttons, she inserted her
palm inside and started caressing my chest. Now it was my turn
to gasp with excitement as she lightly touched the areola around
my nipples. Her own lips twisted with anticipation as her fingers
reached one nipple. I reached down and put my hand over her exposed
waist and started caressing it.
At this she
looked up at me; her light brown eyes were filled with a simple,
pure, unashamed but innocent desire for sex with me; it may sound
strange to call the desire for sex ‘innocent’ but that is the
only word I can think of for what I saw in her eyes.
She responded
by thrusting both her hands on my chest and gripping each of my
nipple between the forefinger and thumb of each of her hand. As
she did this she raised her face and looked up at me longingly.
The next moment we were kissing like mad. This time she opened
her mouth and my tongue went into it tasting the salty taste of
her mouth.
Our tongues
met hungrily, twisting and coiling against each other like two
snakes making love. I moved my hands holding her just above the
buns and held her tightly pressing her crotch against mine. She
too moved closer and pressed her crotch and moved it against my
erection. I responded by dipping my hands under her sari at the
back and top of her panties and felt the rising slope of her buns.
With this
I brought my hand to the front of her waist and slowly moved to
her
thighs with my hands as I said this. I could feel the smooth skin
all over the front and back of her thighs through the thin silk
fabric of her panties.
Once again
she gave me that sweet innocent yet carnal smile, looking back
over her shoulder, and once again our lips locked in a wet kiss..
We kissed hungrily. She was so aroused by this that she started
grinding her buns on my erection.
“May I now
open and see what it is up to?” And without waiting for my permission,
she knelt in front of me and started unzipping my trousers. As
she knelt in front of me, I had a superb view of her beautiful
shoulders and the beautiful skin on the bulge of her breasts.
Whilst on
the rear her slim waist expanded from her bikini cord into a neat
bottom with two beautiful naked silky buttocks. She undid the
zipper and putting her hand inside grasped my cock beneath the
brief. It expanded under her firm caress. Looking up at me she
said with a sweet smile. With loving hands she slid my trousers
caressingly down my thighs.
Simultaneously
I reached and started caressing her bare shoulders. When the trousers
reached my ankles, she held them down with the toes of her feet,
while I stepped out of them. In the meanwhile Laxmi started moving
her fingers through the curls on my thighs. Then as she once again
put her hands on the waist band of my shorts and inserted two
fingers to pull them down. I drew her up to me and began passionately
kissing her.
We kissed
each other for an even longer time, while my hands undid the clasp
of her bra on her back. As the two straps on the back hung loose
and slid down, I started caressing her back. She moved closer
and embraced me tightly, rubbing her now unsupported breasts under
the cloth of her bra on my naked chest.
Simultaneously
our crotches met and rubbed against each other. I pushed her away
and holding the two straps on her shoulders pushed them down her
arms. She responded by squealing with delight as I caught her
naked breasts in my hands and squeezed them gently. Then slowly
I released them and bent forward to view them.
I started
sucking her nipple and it started erecting and further growing
in my mouth. I let it out of my mouth and took the other beauty
in my lips. But with my fingers I kept rubbing the nipple which
I had just let off my mouth.
Laxmi held
my face tightly against her bosom and kept caressing my ears,
kissing my forehead and murmuring under her breath. Now I started
moving my hands down her back and soon reached the waist band
of her thong. She opened her buns by bending her knees. I took
her invitation and started rubbing the thin cord in to her behind.
She started squirming and holding my hand in her buns by pressing
them together. I pushed them aside by holding each in one palm
and then with the forefinger of my right hand, slid the now wet
cord aside and started rubbing her there.
She stood
naked in front of me with our clothes strewn all over my office.
She said and holding the elastic in the waistband pulled my me
down. I stepped out of it and stood with my cock sticking out
in front of me. I then led her by her hand to the couch inside
and made her sit on it.
She parted
her thighs and kneeling in front of her I pushed her back so I
could have a good look at her beautiful mons. She was smooth-shaven
there. The outer lips were slightly wrinkled and darker in color
compared to the skin on her thighs. The inner ones were pinkish
and glistening. They led to the wonderful mound which sat on top
of them. I put a finger on it and started massaging it slowly
in a circular motion. As I bent forward to have a closer look
the sweet aroma emanating from there hit me in the face.
I inserted
a finger gently in her. She squirmed and grasped it with her muscles.
Slowly I moved it in circles and she released it. It went smoothly
in the slick hole. I operated it a few times tentatively. “Push
it deeper,” she urged.
I now used
my index finger along with the middle finger and started probing
deeper. I moved the fingers around. She lay still savoring the
movement for some time. Then bending forward to look at me she
reached forward and extracting my fingers I stood up in front
of her. She clasped my cock in her hand and bending forward started
examining it. She caressed the scrotum with the other hand gently
tracing the ducts which emerged from the testicles upwards.
She looked
at the tip of my penis and seeing the little drop of fluid which
had appeared there, gave it a quick lick. She sucked slowly and
lovingly on it, then when she started putting it deeper, I stopped
her.
I pushed her
back and plunged onward as she fell backwards. She opened her
thighs wide and guided my cock in her gaping hole as I lay on
top of her. “Put it deeper, deeper,” she said in my ears.
"Thrust
harder, harder against the walls of my vagina.” She started raising
her pelvis to meet my thrusts, keeping the rhythm. Soon the room
was filled with sounds of her moaning, my grunts and the slick,
liquid sounds that were emanating from the sacred union of our
organs.
I humped
her faster and faster until she screamed out in orgasm. Soon we
were both crying out in bliss and then it was all quiet except
for our labored breathing as I lay on top of her. My fantasy was
finally fulfilled and much to my delight, so was hers. We never
did find the ant. LOL

US
Government Aggressively Attacking Porn While Selling It March
2007
The United
States has been rocked for the past couple of weeks over the firing
of seven U.S. Attorneys (USAs) from their districts around the
country, but according to the New York Times, at least two of
those firings were apparently due to the USAs' failure to get
on board the administration's anti-pornography train.
Some have
voiced doubt about the Bush administration's dedication to prosecuting
adult business owners; the firing of two US Attorneys because
they would not go along with the government's anti-porn agenda
should put an end to such doubts.
Meanwhile
District of Arizona (trustees employed by the US Department of
Justice) Selling Porn.
What is most
interesting in all of this is that while US Attorney Paul Charlton
was busy indicting Five Star and JM and their employees for interstate
transportation of obscene materials – "obscene" under the community
standards of the District of Arizona – trustees employed by the
US Department of Justice were selling and had sold those exact
same titles ... in Arizona and other Castle stores in Oregon and
Washington state.
To say the
least, this presents the US Attorney's office in Arizona with
a problem: How can it legitimately argue that the four features
under indictment violate Arizona's community standards for obscenity
when other stores in the same state, all under the control of
US government employees, have been selling those same features
– and in two instances, sold one of the features in two different
locations several days after the indictment came down?
The Senate
Judiciary Committee will take a hard look at the circumstances
of Paul Charlton's firing ... and possibly also at the Bush administration's
obsession with mounting federal obscenity cases even when local
US Attorneys think they're unwinnable.
Three female
students at John Jay High School who had been threatened with
suspension for unauthorized use of the word "vagina" during an
event sponsored by the school literary magazine now no longer
need fear the punishment, thanks to an intervention by the local
superintendent of schools.
John Jay principal
Richard Leprine had imposed the one-day, in-school suspensions
on Hannah Levinson, Megan Reback and Elan Stahl on March 2, after
the girls reneged on a promise to Leprine that they would not
perform a planned reading from Eve Ensler's play, "The Vagina
Monologues."
In imposing
the punishments, Leprine claimed that they were not an attempt
at censorship, but rather imposed because the event was open to
the community, including children, and that therefore, the word
"vagina" was inappropriate.
Superintendent
Robert Lichtenfeld sidestepped that public confrontation and lifted
the suspensions, after speaking with the girls and their parents.
According to news reports, the girls took turns reading excerpts
from the portion of the play titled "My Short Skirt," until they
came to the banned word, which they said together as a sign of
unity. "My short skirt is a liberation flag in the women's army,"
the crucial excerpt went. "I declare these streets, any streets,
my vagina's country."
"When I was
able to say the word 'vagina' and be proud to say it and it wasn't
crude and it wasn't inappropriate and it was very real and very
pure, it was important to me," Reback said. "We were willing and
ready to take whatever came."
Playwright
Ensler, who grew up in Scarsdale, just a few miles from the school,
offered to take part in a public meeting to discuss why it was
important for girls of high school age to feel comfortable saying
the word "vagina," citing the fact that women are "disempowered
by lack of education" as the root of much of the violence directed
against women. "What is wrong about the word 'vagina,' which is
the correct biological term for a body part?"
Ensler asked.
"It is not slang. It is not dirty or racy. The fact that it was
censored is an indication of exactly what is going on in American
schools, where girls and boys are not being educated about their
bodies in a healthy way. We're pushing everything into the closet."
The girls
indicated that they well understood what was at stake. "The message
of this piece, if we took out the word 'vagina,' would be contradicting
itself," said Stahl, a junior. "And we shouldn't have to censor
it and we're not going to censor our own bodies, and we're still
going to be strong, independent women in the school."
Sen.
John McCain Stumbles on HIV Prevention March
2007
Senator John
McCain met a question, while sitting with reporters on his bus
as it rumbled through Iowa today, that he couldn’t – or perhaps
wouldn’t – answer. Did he support the distribution of taxpayer-subsidized
condoms in Africa to fight the transmission of HIV?
What followed
was a long series of awkward pauses, glances up to the ceiling
and the image of one of Mr. McCain’s aides, standing off to the
back, urgently motioning his press secretary to come to Mr. McCain’s
side.
His press
secretary, Brian Jones, later reported that Mr. McCain had a record
of voting against using government money to finance the distribution
of condoms. All this took place on the second day of the reprise
of the “Straight Talk Express” bus trips that Mr. McCain made
a central part of his campaign in 2000.
Mr. McCain
turns to take a question on Iraq, but a moment later looks back
to the reporter who asked him about AIDS.
Mr. McCain:
“I haven’t thought about it. Before I give you an answer, let
me think about. Let me think about it a little bit because I never
got a question about it before. I don’t know if I would use taxpayers’
money for it.”
Q: “What about
grants for sex education in the United States? Should they include
instructions about using contraceptives? Or should it be Bush’s
policy, which is just abstinence?”
Mr. McCain:
(Long pause) “Ahhh. I think I support the president’s policy.”
Q: “So no
contraception, no counseling on contraception. Just abstinence.
Do you think contraceptives help stop the spread of HIV?”
Mr. McCain:
(Long pause) “You’ve stumped me.”
Q: “I mean,
I think you’d probably agree it probably does help stop it?”
Mr. McCain:
(Laughs) “Are we on the Straight Talk express? I’m not informed
enough on it. Let me find out. You know, I’m sure I’ve taken a
position on it on the past. I have to find out what my position
was. Brian, would you find out what my position is on contraception
– I’m sure I’m opposed to government spending on it, I’m sure
I support the president’s policies on it.”
Q: “But you
would agree that condoms do stop the spread of sexually transmitted
diseases. Would you say: ‘No, we’re not going to distribute them,’
knowing that?” Mr. McCain: (Twelve-second pause) “Get me Coburn’s
thing, ask Weaver to get me Coburn’s paper that he just gave me
in the last couple of days. I’ve never gotten into these issues
before.”
This went
on for a few more moments until a reporter from the Chicago Tribune
broke in and asked Mr. McCain about the weight of a pig that he
saw at the Iowa State Fair last year.
AIDS
Cure or Sick Hoax by African President? March
2007
Gambian President
Yahya Jammeh announced he had discovered a cure for the disease
that has wreaked havoc across Africa. He made that announcement
in front of a group of foreign diplomats, telling them the treatment
was revealed to him by his ancestors in a dream.
His concoction
has stirred controversy and anger among health officials who say
the president's claims will bring false hope to the nation's more
than 20,000 HIV/AIDS patients. They are also afraid that it could
cause patients to stop taking the anti-retroviral drugs that have
been proven to prolong life and improve quality of living.
One critic
was Fadzai Gwaradzimba, the U.N. envoy to Gambia. She was abruptly
kicked out of the country after saying on February 9 that patients
should continue their normal treatment and that Jammeh's concoction
be "assessed by an international team of experts."
Experts also
say it's in places like Gambia that the poor and desperate will
latch onto anything resembling hope. "For a country's leader to
come up with such an outlandish conclusion is not only irresponsible,
but also very dangerous, and he should be reprimanded and stopped
from proclaiming such nonsense," said Professor Jerry Coovadia
of the University of Kwa Zulu Natal in South Africa.

Stole My Bum March

belly dancer has been awarded £12,000 compensation after a plastic
surgeon accidentally sucked away one of her buttocks. Julia ‘Cleopatra’
Meyer, 38, from Munich, wanted slimmer thighs and instead ended
up with half her bum missing. The court heard that during the
liposuction the plastic surgeon, not named, from a private clinic,
had removed fat from her right buttock instead of her thighs.
She said: “I had been unhappy with my saddlebags, the fat stored
in the outer thigh area. Because of the local anesthesia I did
not realize what he was doing.
