A curious omission: you left out the word "death" (till ... us do part) -- Freudian or what?
an entertaining and no doubt useful piece!

Yes, that typo is an interesting one isn't it. I guess I ought to go and change it.
I must confess to wondering when this entry is going to be subbed - but if the subs have been half as busy as I have, then they have all had *much* better things to do.
*off to get freud out of the entry and back into the neuroses where he belongs*

Subbing will be completed imminently. Sorry about that.
Two weeks off work seemed like a good time to do it... and then it turned out I couldn't lock my two kids in the shed for the fortnight after-all.
Two week holiday...? Two weeks trying to find new and interesting ways to entertain two little brats, more like!

Yay! That is great!
Rainbow and I were discussing the men who make the perfect lovers for the perfect mistresses, and we concluded that the perfect lover is someone you would never ever want to be married to or live with, and I would like to add that to the entry.
In fact, it is probably simplest if I do just add it to the entry. I made a couple of other minor tweaks when I removed the freudian slip, but assume that, as of this post, it is as complete as three perfect women can make it!
There! Done!

PS!
Somewhere in the backlog of this PR thread is a link to a wonderful entry on condoms. It is an edited entry, and really deserves to be linked, even though the only place condoms are mentioned are in a footnote. Perhaps it could go in the section on being a goddess and special skills - you will see why when you read the entry!
