Erin O'Brien's Blog

I read Erin's blog most days, Scene article most weeks. She did a Posh Portraits piece, where she wrote about the whole experience of a boudoir photo shoot. Her pictures were creative, and funny, as was the article. She calls her husband goat - dunno why, but he is a lucky guy. I like a lot of her writing - she is not afraid to say what she feels, wants, thinks - most papers wouldn't, and maybe in a law suit happy world, can't, print that honesty anymore. Most women don't have the confidence to say it either. Scene is often more innuendo than fact, but Erin's column is viewpoint, so it doesn't get lost in the headlines.

The fact that she does say what she thinks, and is not held back by what is "proper", is refreshing and intriguing. I don't always agree with her writing points, but we need more women like Erin O'Brien. The divorce rate would drop, the fights might even rise, but there would be a lot less miscommunication and a lot more honesty in this little world of ours.
