Sex News: Dyke Hard, Sasha Grey Ukrainian propaganda, regrowing foreskin, Helena Bonham Carter naked with a fish

With my new indie book Filthy Housewives (Amazon), all sales go to the authors!

  • It seems safe to say that Bitte Andersson’s Dyke Hard is not what we’ve come to expect from the normally rather staid Swedish film scene. Not unless you’re expecting a queer, John Waters inspired, rock and roll road movie with prison sex and cyborgs. If I don’t see this film, I don’t think I can go on.

  • How to Come Out Like a Porn Star” is an anthology of essays exploring exactly that, to be released in November by ThreeL Media. The book is not a how-to manual, but in more than 50 essays, readers will find various approaches to coming out that, while specific to porn, will likely be appreciated by those struggling to reveal other kinds of sex-related secrets to loved ones. It is also, in its way, a manifesto, a reclamation by Lee of the role of porn as a positive artistic form.

  • The idea of two sexes is simplistic. Biologists now think there is a wider spectrum than that. These discoveries do not sit well in a world in which sex is still defined in binary terms.

  • Sasha Grey has had to publicly state that she’s got no involvement in the Russia-Ukraine conflict. In recent propaganda, former American porn star Grey ditched her acting career and worked as a nurse for pro-Russian rebels fighting in eastern Ukraine until she was brutally murdered by Ukrainian government forces. Er, nope.

  • Did you run out to see 50 Shades Of Grey with your sweetie this weekend? If you have had more than enough (or had your fill) of the kinky (or emotionally abusive) Twilight spin-off this weekend, why not try writing some smutty fanfiction of your own?

  • “I was ready to rip [50 Shades] to shreds in the name of BDSM communities and consent culture everywhere. We all know that the main ingredients for kink are a dash of safe, a sprinkling sane, and a heap of consent. But after watching the entire film, I didn’t have any desire to defend or protect the sacred institution of BDSM from this story of Christian and Anna.”

  • “My roommate and I are both escorts. We’ve talked about the importance of maintaining a proper ratio of sex that we enjoy to work—it’s a mental health issue. My dance card stays full enough to make paying for it questionable, but I will do absurd things in the name of female solidarity, which is why I’m scheduled with Tom for seven tonight.”

  • Women who see their decreasing sex drive as a problem are at the center of an intense, emotional debate that’s been raging for years over whether the Food and Drug Administration should approve the first drug that claims to boost a woman’s libido.

  • Professional phone sex was almost exactly what I expected. Most of the men who called wanted someone to moan along to their fantasies, and I was ready and willing to help out. For the more hardcore customers, I made sure to keep a belt on hand that I could use to smack my couch cushions…”

  1. Much thanks for the link to the article in Nature. It’s a good summary of bits and pieces that I’ve seen in other science blogs, confirming something I’ve observed for a long time – sex is wonderfully complex!

  2. You put “Michael Moore” as the name of the jailed revenge-porn webmaster. His actual name is “Hunter Moore” (that mistake was made in the article you linked to and they’ve corrected it).
