(maybe) not for a teablog

Jackie asked for link back to my titillating posts, so I thought that's what I'd do for this post. A retrospective, as it were.

Here's one about celebrity/politics. A bit whimsical, but you'll see why:

Celebrity tea drinkers

Next up, I tackled sex. This one was fun:

Does drinking tea make you sexy?

And finally, one about religion. Since I'd already talked about two moderately taboo subjects, I called this one:

Hat trick

Goodness, that was fun, wasn't it? I have no intention of doing this sort of rehash again anytime soon, but I think you'll see why this one was called for. Hope you enjoy.

Does drinking tea make you sexy?

A while back, @leafboxtea brought up an interesting point. You know people are reading your blog. They tell you so in real life or mention liking your blog on twitter, but they rarely say anything. I used to think I didn’t get many comments here, but I’ve been reading more of other people's blogs. Now I know that when it comes to comments from readers, I’m really quite fortunate.

Leafbox had an idea to attract people to read your blog in the first place. It was simple: write salacious topics to draw people in. The point was that if you offer something titillating and they come barreling in and then they find out the real topic is …tea? Are you kidding? That titillated surfer would be furious. Might even feel deceived. Tea-that’s possibly the least sexy topic ever, right?

So, here are the naughty and filthy questions I’d like to pose: Does tea drinking make sex better? Are tea-drinkers sexier than the average Joe? Is there any truth to the claim that some teas act as an aphrodisiac? Hmmm…do I have your attention now? I though I might.

Here goes: I’d venture to say yes to all three but would rather let others make my arguments for me.

Does tea drinking make sex better?

First of all, some people say they can only have sex when they have a few drinks in them. Allegedly, some illicit drugs make sex better, but I wouldn’t know anything about that. What about tea?

If you have a cuppa or even a whole pot, are you more amorous? Well, are you? Comments are encouraged on this.

Are tea-drinkers sexy?


What about the typical tea-drinker’s sex appeal? I can already hear several of you saying there is no such thing as a typical tea drinker. Ok. Point well taken. But still. When you think of the tea-drinkers you know, are they somehow more alert? More aware of what’s going on around them? I’d say yes, but that’s just my experience. What do you think?
Tea as aphrodisiac

About the last question: I had to do a bit of research. I’m going to save this topic for another post. There’s enough in the first two questions to have a lively discussion.
