Author: Sheryn Kay Brand: Sheryn Knaider Author: Sheryn Kay Brand: Sheryn Knaider “…A girl asked the boy she had been dating for several months if he planned to marry her one day. His answer was: “No”. From that moment on, the girl lived happily ever after; no cleaning, no cooking, no ironing for anyone, going out with her friends, sleeping with whomever she chose, working and spending her money as she saw fit. Strangely, these aren’t the types of bedtime stories we read to little girls. On the contrary, we dazzle them with the "Prince Charming" fairy tale. We have them believe that the height of happiness they can achieve is to marry a handsome man possessing all the very best qualities, the son of a respectable family, who will initiate them in the delights of love and sexuality. Personally, my hopes for a Prince Charming didn’t last long. I was destined to become one of those young girls that were educated according to the usual rules. A young lady who would be taught modesty and virtue, propriety and devotion to her family. My education, however, followed an entirely different path. I listened to, and scrupulously followed, the advice of the man who had brought me into the world: I went to university, I learned a trade, I became financially independent and I followed my personal pleasure. Just like the young lady in my novel, I went on to live happily ever after… This novel is the story of my dreams, my fantasies and my experience as a lover; a journey of exploration of both the self and of others. It describes my emotional upbringing, serves as my own personal confessional and relates the immense pride I have in being a woman.” S.K.
