It shouldn’t surprise anyone that it’s four am friday night (saturday morning) and I’m just getting to this post (I’ve been collecting tips for it for over a week). My hotel room, which got upgraded to a top floor executive suite, is at this moment populated with attractive drunk people (though @dotBen does not drink, and he is fighting South-By-Sars aka SXSRS). One is telling us how she cut some girl’s hair on a d...

Maybe you are tired of my Lady Gaga fangirling, with all the weird sexual fetishes and alien fashion. That’s okay; maybe you also like me and/or this blog for other things and will happily skip this post. Otherwise, I just watched her new video with Beyonce for “Telephone” and it is absolutely so not a music video, and I love it. In fact, it has nothing to do with the song. It is a bizarre violent cartoon of lesbian malfeasanc...

If you’re a longtime reader, you know that it’s the time of year where I fly to Austin, Texas and attend SXSW (interactive), the tech/internet convention that’s referred to as “spring break for geeks”. Basically, this post is both a warning flare and a starting gun: this blog is about to be somewhat hijacked for the next five days by my trip. My goal is to meet the NSFW quotient I found in Austin last year and share...

Image by DAVIDOVSKY. Points of interest in sex include porn as a possible one-a-day vitamin, a sperm donor’s nightmare come true, bad news for gay Catholics, a true Handmaid’s Tale, ABC concluding that porn censorship is leading to “labiaplasty madness” and much more. * An unflinching fan of Ms. Naughty, I was excited to read her post reflecting on her experiences and observations ten years as female-focused, online femal...

Image by ussk. It was my discovery of the blog Men In Porn that reminded me we haven’t been objectifying men enough around here, and I mean the in an entirely good way. You know I’m a big fan of Guys With iPhones (in fact, it gets overused on other blogs so I don’t mention it as much as I used to). But while Men Of Porn caters to a gay male audience, it doesn’t make me feel like I don’t belong there. The editor simp...

If you’re arriving after hearing/seeing NPR’s All Things Considered on sex and internet history, welcome! You might want to check out this fascinating timeline of sex and the internet, showing in depth a lot more of what we all talked about on the show. You didn’t? Then check out something I worked on for a few weeks, NPR’s Thank Sex For Making The Internet Hot. If you’re a new visitor interested in following my se...

Sometimes I find myself trolling for porn on fashion blogs more often than places that intentionally feature pornography. I know that for some, there is no difference. We in the pursuit of well dressed but half naked models salute you. Click on images to see the full spreads. The one linked to below is actually my favorite. This post is actually a flimsy excuse to share my late night oglings with you and also to run a test. A while back, dotBen...

I tweeted this video last night, but it’s too amazing to only share there. My dear friend Mojo sent me this video last week when I was sad about pulling my column from the Chron. It will live again elsewhere when I decide on a good home (besides me, many people are missing it and readers are saying they’ll follow it wherever it goes). As for this video, you should only be worried if a) your head is a watermelon and b) this woman is ...

I’m feeling disgusted by the seriously slanted anti-porn feature being run in the Washington Post this sunday. And I’m irritated that no one will offer a counterpoint in mainstream media (oh yeah, I was the only one), so I maded you a happy porn post. Don’t believe the porn myths and stereotypes you see in WaPo right now; unsubstantiated claims and sneering at healthy porn use does not make a string case. It’s all they g...

://clp.ly/Go8">www.americanvice.com by clp.ly First it was the porn recession. Then it became a porn depression. When the porn trade industry show and awards shrunk a large percentage and moved to a smaller venue this year, we got articles about porn’s financial meltdown — which by all accounts, is also a portrait of an industry that, like newspapers, is dying at its own hand. A director friend was told this year by her studio (a...

from: www.stdtestexpress.com by clp.ly In what my friend The Sexademic calls “an interesting move for the private sector” we now have STD Test Express, a fully private STD testing website. I pinged her before posting because Sexademic has been exploring more ‘open source’ options for STD tests lately, and we just took an STD/STI update class where it was reinforced that testing isn’t always there when you need it....

Is oral sex considered sex? It wasn’t to around 30 percent of the study participants. How about anal sex? For around 20 percent of the participants, no. A surprising number of older men did not consider penile-vaginal intercourse to be sex. More than idle gossip, the answers to questions about sex can inform — or misinform — research, medical advice and health education efforts. from www.newswise.com via clp.ly

The submissions are all in for American Apparel’s “best bottom” contest; when it was announced in January, reactions ranged from outrage and cries of “sexism!” to pervy excitement and posterior posturing of all kinds. I’m enjoying the range of butts that made the top categories and happy to see that the #1 butt is one of the roundest, showing that people who like ass like a lotta ass. My personal favorites we...
