This may sound weird, but ever since I was a kid I’ve been aroused by the sight of sexy women smoking cigarettes. I’m always on the surreptitious lookout when I’m in public for women with cigarettes in their hands. I record and/or watch stuff on TV that doesn’t interest me in hopes of catching scenes of women smoking. I save any and all pictures I come across. None of this comes close to satisfying my fetish. Are there any clubs, magazines, newsletters, and especially videos for men like me? Forget the Internet–I don’t own a computer. I’ve never told anyone about this, so I’m hoping you will be able to help as I don’t know where else to turn. –KW

Say, for example, S-M turns you on. Going on-line, you can meet S-Mers in chat rooms, surf through kinky personal home pages, and find heaps of pornography. But if you don’t have access to the Internet you still have options: in any city of more than 75,000 people, there’s gonna be enough folks into S-M to populate a viable in-public, in-person, real-time scene. There’ll be at least one S-M club, a fetish night at a local bar, and probably a support/affinity group.
The best by far was Smoke Signals, www.smokesigs.com, which has “served the smoking fetish community since 1994.” It features pics, news, and TV and movie listings and had links to companies selling videos. Smoke Signals also publishes a newsletter, which it describes as the world’s “only professional monthly smoking fetish newsletter.” (For a copy, send $5 to Smoke Signals, 500 Waterman Ave., suite 193, department N, East Providence, RI 02914.) If you have a particular bone for Kate Moss, a smoker, you might want to check out the Kate Moss Gallery, www.geocities.com/Broadway/7746/km.html.
Herbs, shmerbs. Most cases of bad breath are caused by poor oral hygiene, stinky food, cigarette smoking, gum disease, or all of the above. If you’re taking good care of your mouth–flossing, brushing your teeth, brushing your tongue–and your breath still stinks, quit smoking. If you don’t smoke, don’t eat so much pizza. If you’re not eating pizza, smoking, or neglecting your mouth, have a dentist look at your gums.
Does your boyfriend know about this transcendent sexual experience you had while you two were separated? If not, tell him about it and suggest a three-way with Mr. Truly Unfucking Believable so your boyfriend can see what “taking control” looks like. If he can’t stand the idea of sharing you with another man, tell him he has to do one of two things: give you that “Do this! Do that!” lovin’ you need so bad, or give you his blessing to get it from Mr. TUB.
