PHOTO SHOOT #1 FOR SGGURLS CALENDAR 2010 PROJECT, 31 May 2009
Singapore, 31st May 2009
I can only tease you with the background photos. This was my first time coming to Hendrika's place and when I first set my eyes on the beautiful garden, my jaw dropped. The place is breathtaking. Honestly before going there I was scared. Yes, even for a veteran my knees were shaking. We'll be doing photo shoots out in the open like real models. We had four fabulous photographers. I never felt so grateful in my life to be living a dream with my best friends in such lush surroundings. I was privileged enough to get a sneak peak of the calendar photos. WOW! Having a pro makes s big difference. Let's just say that I am happier than a clam. Hendrika gave us an awesome space to glam up. The gurls glammed up while I did a lot of goofing around. The backdrop was just simply amazing. I believe Trish is going to get some very good quality stuff to work with when she starts putting her magical touch on our calendar.
Thank you Alex,Kayla,Zermine and Fifi for being our photographer. We're also indebted to the movers and shakers: Bobby and Ada for making sure the logistics were tight and that we were fully comfy with plenty of food/drinks. Thanks Hendrika for something that money can never buy: your heart of gold and a place that can trully be the called paradise on earth. Thank you to the models whom I won't mention until the calendar is done. They were very sporting trudging around in their heels in public.
I can't wait to see the finish product.

Singapore: SGGURLS 11th Moderator Meeting

Singapore: SGGURLS 11th Moderator Meeting
Singapore, 23rd May 2009
It was another sweltering night with 37 degrees heat index (30.5 degrees + 90% humidity). The gurls met up for what I thought was going to be a night of relaxation. The chairwoman, Destynee, was a task mistress. She bulldozed two tough topics on the agenda. In attendance were our dearest friends and founders of SGB (www.sgbutterfly.org) who had guided and supported us, our wisdom meister Bobby, Ada, Trish, Kayla, Destynee, Joy, Elisa, Linda, Rayne, Hendrika, Zermine and Fifi.
The thorniest topic was tabled first. Does SGGURLS needs its own website? SGGURLS had reached the limit offered by Yahoo's free group service months ago. Elisa asked a very innocent question: "what's the purpose of the website?" A debate ensued as to its purpose and contents. It was no doubt a tough and complex issue half of which had to do with SGGURLS identity. After the group is only 1.5 years old and like any teething baby, it has to find its own footing. Bobby suggested that we delay the decision on the website but keep the topic alive with ongoing discussions. Linda recommended that make this a two step decision: decide 'yes' or 'no' for the website, then form a project team collect the requirements from its members. Daniel offered his experience from running SGB. He suggested that we not focus at the number of members but rather look at actual participants. He said though there maybe 1000-2000 members, participation is less than 2%. Additionally, he proffered the mission of SGB was an education portal. Should SGGURLS embark on having its own website, the mission for the website must be clear.
The second topic was the 2010 calendar project. This was another hairy topic. I had to explain the three reasons for doing the project. The first being team work. SGGURLS has pulled off many events. They were tough but relatively straightforward projects. The calendar project would force the gurls really to look within its members and identify their best talents and use these talents to create an out-of-the-box calendar that will wow its buyers. Secondly, this calendar project challenges the notion that tgurls prefer to go stealth because they don't want to be marginalize by society. Trish and Rose brought up these valid points. In today's context, society still treats us badly. So it's better to just keep quiet, earn a living and not create any trouble. This calendar project is meant to show that trans are people who like any group if given an opportunity will accomplish incredible things. Thirdly, this calendar project is to showcase people with talent. I proffered several examples of trans glam in Asia. The photo studio for gurls in KL, Suzhou and Shenzhen do such wonderful work that it had that made many of its viewers say: "I can't believe these people are really guys". Like the transgender tiffany show, it is another milestone for the transgender to own the day.

Singapore: Feb BDSM meet

Singapore: Feb BDSM meet

Singapore, 26^th Feb 2009

This was the best BDSM meet yet in Singapore. It was the convergence of three alternative social networks: SDAM, bdsmASIAnetwork/SGDOMSUBS, SGGURLS. This was due to our brave Hendrika who endeavored to bring us all together. It was love at first bite, I mean sight. The best way to describe the meet was the meetings of the cool from the movie Twilight and the kink from the movie Payback. Sexiness, leather, ropes and paddling were like a cocktail of never ending fun.

Hendrika was our slut maid cum waitress for the night. She was in charge of making all of us feel at home. Benjamin from DYMK remarked that Hendrika did an excellent good job.

Shanghai: first BDSM meet of 2009

31st January 2009.
Shanghai, China

It was the first the BDSM meet in for the Shanghai BDSM group for 2009. It started out a little slow. Mistress Fifi and Nicole were afraid that due to the Lunar New Year golden week, they would be the only two kinksters there.

The gorgeous Goddess Qing and Her slave, michelle, came by to check out the scene. Soon switch G and the sultry Mistress Woo joined the party. Slave jojo, slave michelle and slave roland had more than they bargained for when they 'volunteered' themselves as the Mistresses' guinea pigs ... er...."bondage models." The three slaves were calling out, "救命 (jiu-ming)," in perfect Chinese. So it seems that we have found the best way to teach lao-wai's how to speak Mandarin with perfect Chinese accent. They were lucky as they have experience Mistresses as play partners.

Vision, co-owner of Frangipani, got into the act. "好玩儿 (hao wan'er)," exclaimed Vision as he got the hang of using the crop. Not too bad for a first timer!

Fifi explained the concept of a SAFE word in Chinese to the people who stood and watch with mouth gaping from the balcony.

Singapore: Lace 2 Lace Party

Singapore, 14th December 2008.

Our deepest apologies for those that came to this party. Our usual space on the third floor at Backstage were renovated and we were not informed ahead of time. We were at the balcony for the most part until 10:30pm, we got a table in the bar. There were several people who came earlier. Sorry to have missed you if you couldn't find us. The blonde mascot was late.

Without our usual space, there was no chance for us to strip down to our intimate wear. We should have renamed this party, wear your lace inside your clothes and keep your clothes on party. :-(

Plan B kicked in. Once we had our table, we commenced with the main event which was to celebrate Ivy's birthday. Ivy Sr. is one our lovely SGGURL moderator who we have had the pleasure of knowing more than a year ago. We still remembered Ivy Sr. was dress as a wicked witch with a Jaws head magic. She was in the original pic that graced our SGGURL's site when it first started which we took at MOX. It's hard to believe that the year had gone by so quickly.

We had a round of agave fire water (80 proof) on the house after the cake cutting. That was enough to loosen up everyone especially the resident land croc. Nic was busy trying to figure out the laces underneath everyone's clothes. See photo with a piece of thread still stuck in Nic's teeth when she took a chomp out of Trisha's bras strap.

We were in good spirits after the shots of tequila, we made our way to Cows & Coolies to meet up with Becky. There was some serious pool competition going on. Destinee tried her hand at pool. We were wondering if she was playing pool or just looking sexy.

SGGURLS 8th moderator meeting: following a dream

SGGURLS 8th moderator meeting: following a dream
Singapore, 6th December 2008

The SGGURLS 8th Moderator meeting was a blast. The meeting was attended by a bunch of really fun loving gurls. It was heartwarming to see deepening relationships forming between the gurls. There were also some romances that had taken off. It was definitely more exciting than Cashmere Mafia and more intriguing than Ugly Betty. Is there a television series in the making? More than a few I wager. Unfortunately, most of the juicy stuff I can’t write in here. All I am allowed to say is that it sure beats watching Saturday night reruns on the telly. I got first class seat to the best show in our little corner of the world.
The meeting was graced by the lovely Mistress Christy. I was just blown away her grace and beauty. Her website and pictures don’t do her justice. She is really an incredible person: talented, gifted and yet so humble. I tried hinting of our informal gathering at DYMK as not to appear to blatant of the very rare treat. Mistress Christy shared with me the current developments of Bangkok’s ever evolving BDSM scene. She was also kind to share with me the underground SM scene in the rest of Asia as she is a widely sought after ProDomme who travels extensively.

In DYMK, there was an event generously sponsored by Aids for Action (AFA) Organization where anyone can test for HIV anonymously. The test is done via OraQuick rapid test where you just need to swab the inside of your mouth and wait for an hour for your results. SGGURLs support AFA. All the gurls and guests participated in the free test. For more on AFA, please see http://www.afa.org.sg/aboutafa.asp
After a very relaxed and fun time in DYMK, we popped over to Dixie’s at Mosque Street which is just next to Cows & Coolies. The bar was really fun. Most of the people knew the gurls. The gurls were up to their usual antics, singing Karaoke and playing pool. Our friends’ in Dixie had a blast trying out Joy’s mile tall high heel which ended up in an impromptu high heel dash around the pool table. This was eye candy for anyone with a foot fetish.

We would like to thank Benjamin and Marc of DYMK for making us feel at home.

SGGURLS' 1st ANNIVERSARY Bash

SGGURLS' 1st ANNIVERSARY Bash
Singapore, 14th November 2008.
It was a night where people from all walks of life joinned to celebrate diversity. Despite the earlier drizzle, participation was fantastic. The rain stopped just as the celebration got underway. We could not have asked for better timing. The weather cooled down nicely so that we could chill outside when things got too hot inside and the gurls did sizzle things up inside. The bungalow was gigantic. It had 7 giant bedrooms upstairs. One of the rooms was converted into a makeup station for our two very talented make-up artist.
The night was special. We had a very rare opportunity to celebrate three birthdays: Rebec, Hendrika and SGGURLS. The totally delectable cakes were specially chosen by Adaline for the birthday girl and gurls. The catered Indonesian food, wonderful cakes, fine wine and beer were only the starters for the great celebration. It was a also a night when the gurls and friends of SGGURLS took ownership of the club and made it their own. The moderators were asked to gather around for the cake cutting ceremony. Nic made a speech on behalf of the group saying that SGGURLS is a group not just for the transgendered, but a group for anyone who had ever been discriminated. The birthday wish for SGGURLS is to be a positive force to forster respect amongst people regardless of their gender, gender preferences, race, religion, creed and country. We were also very happy that the owner of MYGURLZ came all they way from KL to celebrate SGGURLS' birthday. She was happy to see a united transgender community in Singapore celebrating their friendship in mirth and with warmth.
After the cake cutting ceremony, the celebration went into overdrive. Kaila was the emcee for the night and a fine emcee she was. She whipped up the audience into a frenzy when the beautiful Destinee, sexy Ivy and delicious Trish performed their hearts out. Destinee did two song numbers. Trish sang 'Fever' and Ivy heated up things with very exotic dance.
And when everyone thought that the show as over, Joy brought out the ropes. Nic and Joy were like Betty Boo meets Betty Paige domina duo. They caught their naughty lollita and the birthday gurl. Before the gurls knew it, they were bound, gagged and tickled mercilessly for an hour. But this was all done in good fun of course.
A special thank you to Adaline, Kaila, Destinee, Trish, Ivy Jr., Deanna, Hendrika, Zeus, Bobby for making the celebration a success. And a big hug to all our wonderful friends who came and made the night a memorable one.
