Takashi Murakami’s Outrageous London Exhibition

16 July 2011
The above fiberglass reinforced plastic and steel sculpture is nine feet tall - and is called Three Meter Girl. I've wanted to see Japanese artist Takashi Murakami's sculptures for many years, and right now Murakami is showing in London at the Gagosian Gallery. His 6-foot-tall resin, fiberglass and acrylic sculptures are […]

[Video] Sexy Romance – At the Rainbow House – Director’s Cut

16 July 2011
This is one of the most romantic sexy videos I've ever seen. It's not explicit, but the chemistry and sexual intimacy is entrancing. I want the house, the bathtub, her outfit, their romance. The video is Devendra Banhart at the Rainbow House - Director's Cut (directed by Lisa Eisnerand) and […]

[Video] English National Ballet Summer Party in Agent Provocateur

15 July 2011
What a sexy video: ballet dancers letting their hair down, enjoying their bodies, and getting sexy in every combination. According to Agent Provocateur's blog, the couture lingerie house was commissioned to design a tutu - or several - for this year’s English National Ballet Summer Party at The Orangery, Kensington […]

Eye Candy: Kim Kane, Lexi Belle and Other Delights

14 July 2011
A number of people asked me through various channels what I thought about Naomi Wolf's anti-porn screed recently published in Al Jazeera and HuffPo. In it she jumbles unverified conclusions (posed as science) with anecdotes to support her opinion that men are all messed up from porn, and that it's […]

[Video] Jenna Haze Is Hilarious In The Flesh Lightning Trailer

14 July 2011
Can someone make this movie happen? Flesh Lightning has to be, by far, the most entertaining piece of viral media that the adult industry had produced to date. Sadly, it's not a bizarre new porn-fried version of American Pie, but instead it's a little something from the Fleshlight company. I […]

[Video] Trailer for Hustler’s Lady Gaga XXX (Is Awful)

13 July 2011
Click the image above to watch the trailer on Hustler's site; their embed code does not work. I wanted to present this without comment. But I will give you five on Hustler's just-announced Lady Gaga porn film: 1. Lots of people will watch this and think it totally sucks (because it does) […]

[Video] Carly on EPIC by Jake Blackstone

13 July 2011
There is a lot to love about Carly on EPIC by Jake Blackstone (produced by Ketch Rossi). Her expressions, her lingerie, her shoes, her styling, the shooting and editing techniques, and I really love the music. Anyone recognize the tune? According to Blackstone, it's an "Epic camera M8 test shoot. Chicago..."

Sex Dolls für Schicklgruber: Hitler’s Non-Existent “Nazi Love Doll” Project

12 July 2011
A bogus story about Nazi sex dolls from 2005 or before has surfaced again...and it's ladling out the dopamine with lots of croutons. And, dopamine-drunk, the blogosphere keeps reposting it. A report in the New York Daily News references as fact the urban legend that during the Nazi occupation of France, […]

Sex News: Microsoft, Sex Drive Drug, Murder and Michele Bachmann

11 July 2011
This is a very big sex news roundup; I'm still fighting this awful summer flu (still congested and my brain is annoyingly slow), and at the same time there has been a lot going on in the world of sex news and culture lately. You may have noticed that I've been […]

Naomi Wolf in Al Jazeera: Blame the Internet!

10 July 2011
I had already written off Naomi Wolf's most recent wave of anti-porn nausea, but every time I turn around, someone new is uncritically reposting it. In light of Erica Jong blaming the internet for motherhood today in the New York Times, I have to say something about Wolf's transparently pseudoscientific anti-porn, […]

Erica Jong in the NYT: Blame the Internet!

10 July 2011
I'm willing to cut Erica Jong, author of the landmark feminist classic Fear of Flying, lots of slack -- after all, she invented the zipless fuck. She's an O.G. of women's sexual liberation, and in many ways a personal hero of mine. But that only gets you so far, in […]

On Google Plus – No Country For NSFW People

10 July 2011
I'm being asked through various channels if I'm on Google+ - yes, indeed. You can find me at: gplus.to/violetblue Currently, G+ is not very sexy - though I did terraform with a few sexy photos in my galleries. Don't get me wrong, it's fun and has some great functionality, but I haven't […]

China’s Sex Toy “Boom”

9 July 2011
Sifting the imagined facts from the meaningless ones in the lengthy China Daily story "A Kiss of Life For Sex Toys" is even more work than doing that same task with articles about sex in the mainstream western media. The article in the state-run newspaper almost completely ignores China's importance as […]

Blowjobs, Bollywood, “Delhi Belly” and India’s Post-Sex Nation: Is Dirty Talk the New Wet Sari?

7 July 2011
If you're familiar at all with Bollywood films, you may already know the three most important things about them. First, if someone starts singing, expect them to take an inexplicable dancing tour through world history during the upcoming number, featuring lots of guys with mustaches. Second, while you shouldn't expect […]

Nibbles: Game of Thrones’ Necessary Nudity, Conference Sex(ism), Inmate Sues Over Lack of Porn, Summer Sex Tips, Dangerous Dildos

7 July 2011
(This is one of the best articles I've read in a long time.) No operation that's producing this much good TV needs to be airing so much female nudity; that's the specious starting point of LA Times Mary McNamara's column, the notion that nudity is not one ingredient in an […]
