I have nibbles for you..

* One of my favorite little sex photo books is Samantha Wolov‘s Flip Fuck ($5, Box Magazine’s store) — it’s hot, explicit, sexy and a great gift for couples. Just stumbled across it on my bookshelf and realized I forgot to blog about it when it came out.

* Yikes — Der Spiegel went to Guolizhuang, Beijing’s Exclusive Penis Restaurant!

* S and M dot com has declared April “Buttmonth” and is inviting readers to vote on their favorite asses: “a contest in which Stockroom customers, in the spirit of forgiveness for the state of things in America today, have turned the other cheek, photographed it, and mailed in those glorious photos…and you, my friends, get to VOTE for your FAVORITE ASS from this fine selection of MAIL-IN CANDIDATES. It’s like practice for November. There’s the patriotic ass, the ass that looks like it has a lot of experience, the inspirational ass, the ass that looks like it wants to go to war, the ass that looks like it lost the war (…)”

* I was quoted on HuffPo today in a very interesting article by Suzanne Portnoy about what happened to Debauchette when her parents recognized her, despite the anonymizing, on Diane Sawyer. Check out What Your Parents Don’t Know Can Hurt Them.

* The Stanford Daily loves me! Okay, they love Tiny Nibbles — this review is so awesome, yay! “(…) I must say that after looking at some other erotica sites (I liked you, clitical.com, I really did), I am pleasantly surprised by Tiny Nibbles. Take her reference to sexual healing, for example. It’s extremely rare for so-called sex-positive enthusiasts (read: people who feel the need to justify their Olympian libidos) to even address the issue of sexual healing for victims of abuse. Although Blue herself hasn’t directly coached those with sexual trauma, I respect the fact that she prominently provides links to information about it on her site. This, in conjunction with a plethora of resources on safe sex and education, makes Tiny Nibbles an ideal place for readers who want more than just circle jerks and gag fests. After all, and as some of you have had the displeasure of finding out, sex isn’t only about the act itself. Afterwards, if there’s a big mess (of emotions and awkward circumstances, of course), then you have to clean it up. Don’t worry, Blue is looking out for you. In short, she’s got everything right there waiting for you — waiting while you finish watching high definition Anal Teens 4. (…)”

* Kindlepr0n? No way! I don’t know anything about it.

* Sex in the Public Square thinks it’s time for a sex positive wiki. I think they’re right, especially since the definition of sex positive on Wikipedia is so frustratingly murky (and I disagree with even the opening line) and Wikipedia:WikiProject Sexology and sexuality certainly has its hands full…

* As a longtime fan and friend of the Uncanny Valley, I encourage you: do not miss The Uncanny Valley Explained (In Terms of Porn And Star Wars) (via Fleshbot).

* Adrants takes up the noble cause of defending the rights of women with big breasts in advertising. Hee, or something like that. Big boobs? Hell, I didn’t make it past the Ad Contest for CATS!

* And two from Xbiz: Children’s DVD Ends Up Containing Disc With Gay Content. Wups. Also: Porn Filtering Debate Heats Up — and ends in a deadlock, with the ACLU in a library issue. Intense.
