  • “Every year on Halloween, my friend and me sat on her bedroom floor as we basked in our simultaneous boners for Tim Curry in leather, fishnets, and stilettos. I can say this because I’m gay, but it was really, really gay, and I’m super gay for Tim Curry. My perma-boner for Curry as Frank-N-Furter thoroughly fucked up my conception of gender in the Curry-est of ways.”

  • I pitched a feature on Kink’s haunted house to Playboy, but decided it wouldn’t work when Playboy told me they can only run SFW photos. I was just as confused as you are. Nevertheless, VICE did it (and it sounds like it was quite unerotic, fwiw). ““The safe word is Red.” That’s not the sort of thing you’d expect to hear before entering a haunted house. But this is no ordinary horror show: This is Hell in the Armory, in the basement of the world’s largest porn mansion, and I was there to experience it in all it’s disturbing, naked glory.”

  • The sexy costume is now as much a part of Halloween as candy corn and Tootsie Rolls, both of which, incidentally, are available in sexy-costume form. But how did we get to this point?
