The child, through no fault of its own, and through the very nature of being a child, is egocentric and self-absorbed. Thus, if the daughter does not make her bed, and the mother yells, and the father beats the mother – then the daughter believes all that happened is her fault. Why? Because she did not make the bed, do you see? André Chevalier

Good sex isn’t complete without cuddling and aftercare.Women instinctively know this. Men, if they’re smart, figure it out.

Some truths can be only be found when one looks with the heart, not the eyes.” – André Chevalier

Abuse? Ah. Such problems, even with time, do not go away on their own. They must be addressed. André Chevalier

Facing one’s past can be a perilous activity. For the client, joy must exceed misery. Personal successes must far outweigh losses. Pleasure must exceed pain. Always. Always. To do otherwise is a failure of the counselor.— André Chevalier

I chuckle under my breath. I should’ve known. What woman can look in a mirror and not immediately spot every flaw, real or imaginary?

Like icebergs, people normally expose only a small part of themselves, and generally just the part they wish to show.

Good sex requires further exposure than simply removing one’s clothes. And as for a good relationship? Ah! For this one must be prepared to reveal even more.” — André Chevalier

Abuse is a parasite that feeds off hate and shame, growing in size and strength with silence.

Pleasure, pleasure, pleasure! Always your goal is pleasure. Pain, yes of course! Yet pain must only be used as a means to add to your sub's sensation of pleasure. To do otherwise is un péché noir - a black sin. Such will tarnish the soul. André Chevalier
