I guess it shows that I am a virgin. I only got the references to about half of these questions. *sigh*

I'm looking forward to be deflowered by the delightful Lord Lester and his warm and welcoming friends however. In the meanwhile I'm sewing period garb to be an alternative to Middle Eastern dance garb with ghawazee/entari. I swear that I was born to wear a bodice.
