Image “Forensic Mistress” by Randem. I’m endlessly fascinated with obscenity law, the definitions and interpretations of what’s deemed obscene from one community, individual — or country — to the next, and how it all rests in the eye of the beholder. How it varies in detail and context between the UK and the US is…

Love ain’t the problem
The SF LGBT Pride parade yearly attracts in excess of over one million visitors to San Francisco — more than doubling the population of our City for a weekend. Someone with copies of the notorious “Love ain’t the problem / Stand up against h8” graphic taped up a few posters around the parade areas. I…
Ask, and… yeah.
What’s great is that I was about to randomly post this gallery of Stoya and Astrid and their strap-on session for no reason other than the chemistry is hot, I’m procrastinating work on two anthologies, it would make for a gratuitous porn post and I’m always trying to think of reasons for justifying my porn…
And now, something completely excellent – study: Vibrator Use Common, Linked To Sexual Health
Image from this explicit free gallery, because I can. Now here’s a study we can sink our collected [redacted] into. Totally transparent, they cite their data sources, they provide links to the studies so you can decide for yourself what you think, and it’s full of interesting data. Plus it makes us pro-sex toy biased,…
Heteronormative attraction studies are *so cute* when they’re still babies!
Gratuitous nude gallery of Natalia A here. This item made me fascinated; not in a totally snarky way, but in a ‘I wonder who their samples were, what populations they asked, etc.’ because that would actually give me some useful data. Sex and attraction studies are oft cited for generalizations in media because they’re supposedly…
From the fashion archives: Kate Moss
I just randomly came across this set of Kate Moss from last year’s September 2008 issue of W Magazine. The whole incredibly sultry, nipple-tatstic and very sexy set is here.
Surreal: April Flores glitter suicide in my bathtub
Last month when Courtney Trouble, April Flores, Carlos Batts, Kim Kane and others invaded my house to shoot some indie porn, I wasn’t in the rooms when they were shooting so I didn’t see what they did. And that was fine with me; I was thrilled to have these exciting artists in my house making…
Hot queer girl Monday
Image from Roulette – a porn shoot (…). I missed pretty girl friday — but after a weekend of celebrating SF LGBTQ Pride, working (getting snidely called an “activist” at the porn expo onstage by another sex writer), networking while everyone and their gay porny sibling is in town, and being out of touch with…
Happy gay Pride weekend from Miss California (not)
Image by malecution. This week’s SF Chronicle column was fun to write; instead of the usual SF Pride guide, I wrote a faux how-to guide to staying “safe” from homosexual activity in San Francisco over the weekend from ex Miss California Carrie Prejean, who is actually more famous for being against gay marriage that for…
China’s online “porn” ban to extend to sexual health sites
Image by Danny Choo. This is getting really out of control — extreme, bizarre and I think now has the potential to become dangerous. There have been a lot of headlines about the Chinese government’s intent and implementation to ban not only whatever they deem pornographic but also “vulgar information”. Another layer on the cake…
