If you’re tired of me being agitated about the proposed .XXX domain extension, then you can skip this post (and know that when the ICANN comment period is over this month I will stop bugging you to use this text to email ICANN to tell them that .XXX = OMGWTFBBQ). But I do want to say a big *thank you* to the people who have sent in emails with me! That said, I got a ping last night from the people who set up the nifty website Dot-XXX Oppos...

If you have stepped outside of the rules of “normal” for your culture, you have probably become attuned to language that reinforces those rules. For example, I never realized how monogamy-centric the majority of American fiction is — books and movies — until I delved into adult communities online. There, many people explore alternative relationship styles like polyamory and group unions, in the relative anonymity of the i...

I wrote this up last night on my tech blog Techyum in Comment Period Now Open on .XXX ? Make Your Voice Heard, in part because I wanted to give people a linking option if they did not want to visit a NSFW website to get the info. In short, a few men with no ties to adult business or family groups have been trying for ten years to get ICANN to add .XXX to the selection of domain options ? and they are already selling pre-registration at high pric...

This stellar article from my dear friend Midori is right in line with the aesthetic I see increasingly expressed by the hundreds of thousands of people who visit this blog regularly. It’s what I call a “Whole Foods attitude” we’re all cultivating about porn, sex toys, and figuring out good ways we can live our lives as sexual citizens of the world. I love it! Here’s a snip: (…) Below you’ll find some ide...

It’s an end-of-the-day story, but today attorneys general from 17 US states sent a joint letter demanding that Craigslist remove its Adult Services section “because the website cannot adequately block potentially illegal ads promoting prostitution and child trafficking.” NPR reports in Craigslist Asked To Drop Erotic Services Ads, (…) “No amount of money, however, can justify the scourge of illegal prostitution and ...

> The next best thing to taking an actual bubble bath with the succulent Miss Jenna Valentine, model and blogger, is this SCORELAND virtual bath. It’s a wholesome, clean activity with a FF-cup buxom beauty who merely needs to step into the tub to heat the water. By God, she could bottle that bathwater and sell it. SCORE Men have lots to say about Jenna, who recently celebrated her birthday. “She is one of my favorite models in SC...

> In this photo set, Desi Foxx, who recently turned 50, plays a music teacher whose student simply isn’t hitting the right notes. She could listen to him bang away at that guitar all day, but the fact is, Johnny Rod has the dream, but he doesn’t have the right technique, and it might be a crying shame, but some people just weren’t cut out to play a musical instrument. So, rather than wasting her time teaching him, Desi buri...

> We’ve all seen those late-night TV commercials for 900-line singles connections with sexy babes out to pitch your tent. This fresh Cherry Brady video for XLGirls is a million times hotter, bustier and wetter. The redhaired supervixen, the ultimate woman-next-door, is back after too long an absence and just as horny as always! Back to wave her massive 36G-cups in your face, back to spread her sweet cunt and shake her curvy ass. The st...

Well, this is a twist that no one expected; with another twist. European porn company Private announced a few days ago that they are totally cool with “pirating” because they see it as free advertising for services they want to develop that will be made of content that people *actually* want to pay for. To me, I like the sound of the pressure of market forces in this statement: I’m seeing new torrent sites go online every week ...

It’s pretty safe to say that many people use Facebook, and most of the users hate it. That’s just weird. Your website users should not hate your website. Despite this, thousands of people miss the Our Porn, Ourselves Facebook page. In this update post, I explain everything that has happened so far and a bit about my next steps — steps that involve evolving tech and community past the frailties of places like Facebook and Tribe....

Although big music groups usually get groupies, not every member of the band hits it off with the girls. Sounds like a bummer, unless one of them is a breast-baring psycho killer. Then being left out sounds pretty good. More »

Angry and frustrated about the state of sexuality in social networks, last week I dropped everything and flew to LA for some chill time with my close friend Eon McKai (former Vivid director). He showed me this YouTube video he made that explains how to set the time on your VCR. Very awesomely Eon! He explains more about the video here.Eon’s house is just like being in The Doll Underground, girls and all. It is Los Angeles so I tried to watc...

I lurk on Hacker News for a number of reasons, and one of them is that I occasionally come across really interesting articles that cross genres, ones that I think you’ll find as intriguing as I do. Today I found a juicy one that really resonates; it’s a blog post titled Downsides to being seen as a man. Powerful and controversial, for sure. For instance, it’s heartbreaking to see truths such as male rape not being taken seriousl...
