Image via stigma rest room. I bring you links, commentary and props from around the ‘sphere that happened to catch my eye: * Everyone’s a-tweeting about former NY Governor, vehement anti-sex work crusader Eliot Spitzer’s outing as “client 9” from the Emperor’s Club VIP escort service. Slate offers up this handy guided tour (including interactive…
Image: my pal Dacia making out with girls at a convention — um, sadly, not ETech or SXSW. “You can’t see in this photo, but look at the brunette (her name is Marigold) and then make your conclusions about where my right hand is. Um, my thumb is on her clit.” Back from ETech, getting…
It’s about time: finally, the realities of sexual predators online, children and teens and sexual abuse are all coming to light — and as I quoted t3knomanser above, the Internet’s role in making kids sexual victims is way overhyped and overblown. Now, there’s data to back it up: In an article titled “Online ‘Predators’ and…
…which is apparently the new black, or pink, if you will. This week’s SF Chronicle column is Dude, Where’s My G-Spot? and I think you’ll like this one… Snip: OK, so I was at NOPA last night drinking a delicious absinthe cocktail, and my male companion said something rude, so I left. I was angry:…
I caught this item at Slate, a little bit on how The Canada Border Services Agency prohibits the importation of any materials “deemed to be obscene”, and that their new guide is a bit puzzling (and the irony is not lost on me that they published their new guidelines for obscene DVDs, books, comics, etc.…
Monika and Martina by Guido Argentini via Guy Hepner I’ve been up working since before 9am, and this is my good night kiss to myself — and you, dear reader. I often say that reading my blog is a lot like dating me, and now moreso with comments! It’s been a day of research due…
Image via h.andras_xms. The Geek Squad has been known for their file-rifling, porn-stealing issues for a while (thanks to Consumerist). But only when local blogger Ariel Waldman asked about their classic, “it’s sex so who cares” issues at a San Francisco marketing and customer service summit conference, did Best Buy’s Geek Squad’s privacy, porn, sex…
Photo via international crush object #1, Gala Darling. * It is now finally legal to sell vibrators and sex toys in Texas — due to the legal machine of Phil Harvey at Adam and Eve. * Japanese Wii porn (hardcore video). *Now* I’ll learn tennis. (thanks, well-known mystery vlogger!) * Dacia has this superlative post…
Or, how wingnuts get taken seriously, the sequel. Looks like it’s not just the fundies that “cook the books” when it comes to pushing their anti-porn and anti-sex agendas. This is a great example of something I often point out about data and research when it comes to topics like “porn addiction”, “sex addiction”, porn…
I’m feeling the same anger and astonishment as Cory Silverberg about this one. What kind of twatwaffle journalist goes into a sex toy shop, records buying a vibrator, then reports the store to the police to get her story? Cory sez, (…) The story isn’t even about a government or police crackdown on sex toy…
