Beware…this will be one of those “all over the place” blogs but if I am successful I will spur a bit of sensory curiosity. Last week I took a chance and registered for a seminar given by Trend Union with the special guest being a fascinating woman named Betony Vernon, a self-described “sexual anthropologist”.
