- The auteurs behind Miami porn company Bang Bros — who made their name filming men in vans who purportedly picked up “innocent” women from sidewalks and then sweet-talked them into filmed fornication on the road — seem to have turned to public transit for their newest series. (The women were paid and contracted performers.)

- Actors in many of the adult films made in the nation’s porn capital must use condoms under a law that took effect Monday, but the prophylactic police aren’t yet on the case. How they will enforce such a regulation once they do begin enforcement is anyone’s guess.

- Those classy UK tabloids, again: they’ve outed BDSM romance author EL James against her will. The Evening Standard tracked her down to the terrace home in Brentford she shares with scriptwriter husband Niall and two teenage sons. She said: ‘How did you find me? I didn’t want my real name to come out.’

- TED 2012 provided a talk on sex that is a threadbare copy of the baseball diamond / sex reframe talk we’ve done at SFSI for over ten years and several years behind the XKCD comic of the exact same topic. So, in ten years TED will get to topics on this blog circa 2010…? Poor TED.

- “I’ve always said that it’s a generally fantastic experience to be a man in our culture. This is because, in comparison to women, we men get way more room to be ourselves or do what is most comfortable for us.

As a native Miamian I support this endeavour. Also lolz.
50 shades of Grey is now number 27 on the NYT best seller list. Has there been a precedent for kinky fiction story being that high on the best seller list? Certainly the Beauty stories went mainstream but it’s not something I’ve followed. I wonder what it says, that BDSM and kink has gone mainstream or the main characters appeals to many. Or good marketing? Now I’ll have to read it although the pseudonym outing was the main reason I followed the story.
Looking at the Tom Tomorrow’s strip, I point to a *too very much real* example. In my country, after several years of sufficient (they had room for improvement but they at least worked) abortion has become now again illegal except in very exceptional cases. This politician provides some sort of “moral” justification:
“Gallardón: There is no truest right for the woman as that of the motherhood”
