What is Fox News’ safeword? Just how much do Daily Show writers understand about modern BDSM? Watch this hilarious clip: Jon Stewart and Wyatt Cenac (The Daily Show) (thesexcarnival.com)
This is great – in-game same-sex options makes a homophobe in a gaming forum angry that straight male gamers are being discriminated against, and the gaming company responds with the best educational spanking I’ve read in years: “Straight Male Gamer” told to ‘get over it’ by BioWare (No More Lost, thanks Linecook!)
Read my take-apart of an all-female tech PR firm that belligerently proffered “keep your skirt short enough to be interesting” speakers’ tips at SxSW – then their totally awful response: Tech PR, and short skirts at SxSW 2011 (ZDNet)
Joumana Haddad is “the Oprah of Lebanon” and risking a hell of a lot with her sex-positive activism and unflinching will to publish erotica: Sex and the Souk (NYTimes.com, use NYTClean if needed)
To play by the rules of Islamist conservatives in Indonesia, one film company is importing porn stars like Japanese Sora Aoi (known as Aoi Sola, ahem NYT) and starring them in films fully clothed, with much success: A Winning Film Formula in Indonesia – Porn Stars, Clad (NYTimes.com, use NYTClean if needed)

This installment of Eye Candy isn’t entirely comprised of sexual jeopardy and men in trouble; I thought this selection would be a refreshing change from the ‘pretty girl’ posts I’ve been fond of lately. And boys are indeed in some trouble in these (mostly video) galleries – though there is a fair share of simply spicy scenes, the exciting return of For The Girls galleries and videos, couples aplenty and man-candy, with at least one ballerina getting explicitly swanned en pointe at The Armory.
Post title inspiration: Brit workman hassles ladies on the street with a wolf whistle, and they decide they’ve had enough.
However, Jessie Sparkles – cute boy! tattoos and glasses! – is in real trouble at the Kink castle (San Francisco), and the amazing Bobbi Starr is a treat on the eyes, too.
French delight Jasmine Arabia takes a bath. And you know I’m so hot for this girl that someday I’ll be posting “Jasmine checks her messages!” with the same lust in my heart. Possibly other organs, and that’s all I’ll say about that.
Just saw this go up on Twitter, two of my favorite people: Kimberly Kane, shot by Steve Diet Goedde (“Photographed with the Yashica T4″). Fun Fact: the masthead for Our Porn, Ourselves is a shot I took of Kim on my bed using my laptop. While she was making porn, presumably on my MacBook to look at porn… :)
This above video is the Bob Sinclair remix of Cerrone’s 1977 disco tune “Give Me Love.” No, I don’t understand it either – but I’m hoping the reason why is because it is a complex allegory for the Greek political system, or a symbolic reveal about the connection between the American shadow government and its puppet masters, the Illuminati.
Okay, maybe it’s just disco with naked girls painted silver who all get a big shower together on a mattress. But I like me versions better. The conspiracy-theory-free original 1977 version is below, and it’s damn groovy.
Indie porn star, Artcore artist and all-around big beautiful babe, and my homegirl April Flores (Fatty Delicious) appeared in a Metro PCS commercial with Snoop Dogg; the fun outttake video has lots of her with Snoop smiling and hugging, but it sadly might be the only place she made the final cut. (YouTube)
Boy demands autograph from porn performer at her day job, then creates a fake Facebook profile and outs her, costing her job. The boy is a pathological stalker and troll, period. Creepy to see people defending his actions, and Facebook doing nothing, again: Boy who outed porn star threatened with charges (Toronto Sun)
Hilarious: the names on the menu, and the “Little Ho” kids menu… Fox News does *not* know what to do with this one, watch them stumble through the video report: ‘Fat Ho Burgers’ Opens in Texas (myfoxdfw.com, via dlisted)
If you hacked a billboard, what would you put on it? This guy picked porn – so boring! that’s what the Internet is for! – and pays a price I think is insanely high: Porn billboard hacker gets 18 months (Digital Spy)
A nice detour in your travels tonight might be provided by visiting the "Editorial" galleries on Australian fashion photographer Henryk Lobaczewski's website. It's in that annoying Flash design so many international photographers use, and is typically unintuitive, but there are a few images that have really stuck with me (like […]
I love Hegre Art.
But - I have been very, VERY reluctant to post Hegre galleries since they changed their hosted gallery format - because I know the auto-play video will annoy the hell out of you. It makes me *insane*. I wrote them about it, politely pointing out that […]
So many of you enjoyed Erika Lust's short erotic film Room 33 (including me!) that I'm posting the extended version and behind the scenes video within minutes of it landing in my inbox. Enjoy!
Axe/Lynx is the man-smell company known for ads whose overt sexuality gets them banned, criticized, admired and generally liked on this blog for being sexually playful.
I like them. I also like videos of cats playing piano, and .gifs of cats playing bass guitar with rainbow backgrounds. This information is […]
CBS did a decent job talking about serotonin and sexual arousal in mice without saying anything can (or can't) "make" you gay: Serotonin sex bomb: How to make a mouse bisexual or just really horny (CBS News)
UPDATE: Top Spin Games has pulled all versions of the video - terrible viral […]
While no one is surprised to hear news that anyone or anything remotely human sexuality related has been banned from Facebook, it still sucks to find out that it's still happening. A while back I posted a salute to Womens’ Rights Ukranian civil disobedience group FEMEN, which was well-received by […]
Pretty. These have been in style (outside decades-old leather daddy culture, that is) in San Francisco's Mission District for the past year, seen at boutiques such as Five and Diamond, typically worn by sexyhot queer fashionistas such as Jiz Lee. More of Vogue's arrival to this fashion meme in […]
Fascinating read: female President of porn empire Pink Visual (Allison Vivas) reads Cindy Gallop's "Make Love Not Porn" TED book and blogs her surprising reactions in Porn World Vs. The Real World (XBIZ.com)
So much hot feminist porn, and so little time! The nominees for the 2011 Feminist Porn Awards […]
I love Vimeo. And I love it when people send me Vimeo links - case in point is the above video "Woman" by Eugene Stroynov (aka redkeds.com). The music is “Wolfmother - Woman" and the video is apparently inspired by Greg Williams. Which is pretty cool, but actually I think […]
With great porn comes great responsibility - or rather, the inverse, in my "please don't feed the porn stars" two cents on what the approval of .XXX means for the Internet's ecosystem: .XXX Domain Approved: Now Begins The Era Of Meaningless TLDs (CBSi/ZDNet)
GREAT post - do […]
Sending off signed books to readers in giveaways and giving out NSFW tinynibbles.com stickers is so much fun - I love writing and sharing sex culture with you, and I'm so grateful for the time you spend with me (not to mention how much I deeply appreciate the input, comments […]
Yes, I know it's not a full world tour of eye candy - and yes, I see San Francisco as our own country. A taste of (**explicit**) eye candy, as seen through the freshest galleries in my inbox:
Australia
Sex in the city: Roxy and Ryan
Canopy's confessions
Tahlia
France
Jasmine - my fave, with another […]
