The best response to the Purity Ring iPhone app has been on my Facebook page: “If I install that, does it mean I’m pledging not to fuck my iPhone? Because, honestly, I don’t think I can make that pledge.” However, I think we need a very explicit chaser, and that comes in the form of…

Purity ring (abstinence) iPhone app
What you see in the image is a screenshot of the Purity Ring iPhone app, where one — were one so inclined to pledge one’s life to abstinence and chastity — can download and take the pledge, wearing their ring on their iPhone. Where it really means something, along with that “Pull My Finger” iPhone…
Gratuitous porn post
Image from this Whipped Ass gallery. With the last post and the post that’s coming up next, I have to sandwich a little of the real stuff in between. I’ve been peeping new galleries and have a bunch of *very* explicit faves in tabs clogging up my browser — it’s time to share. All the…

Also created but seemingly unnoticed was…

Just launched: QueerPINK
Above is the second episode of QueerPINK, from the hot queer porn makers and performers of The Crash Pad Series and Pink & White Productions. It’s a video blog — more of a reality show, actually — about queer women working in the mainstream and indies porn industry. I think it’s going to be really…
Reason magazine: Does porn make society better?
Image of Morgan Mae and friend from this explicit gallery. Though provoking, edgy and controversial is what I’m calling Peter Suderman article for Reason Magazine, Does Porn Make Society Better? It’s about time we start looking at these questions head-on, but I object to the argument’s basis: conflation, or rather comparing as two equal values,…

Yeah, I shop American Apparel’s website for the *clothing*
Actually, I don’t buy much American Apparel unless it’s got some counterculture art on it from friends/street artists. But I like to think of AmerApp like Playboy, whwew if I did spend some time on the website pretending to shop, I’d be… pretending to shop while ogling the mostly nekkid models. Say hello to the…
