Sex News: Hung for the Holidays, trans fairy doll, Harvard Law on BDSM contracts

Check out my new indie books, Filthy Housewives (Amazon) and Holiday Kink (Amazon)

  • Get Hung for the Holidays. Highlights include “Oh, Poly Night,” the bitterly hilarious “12 Fights of Christmas,” and lyrics like “This holiday’s nothing but wholesome / so why you gotta turn it into Folsom?” The wonderful, local, sex-positive Rachel Lark is beloved for her bawdy jams, which have been heralded by folks like Margaret Cho and Dan Savage. And now she’s brought us all some Christmas cheer with a surprising, subversive holiday album. It’s sure to terrify your family and delight your friends.

  • Fashion Happy Dolls manufactured in China have made some unsuspecting parents fashionably unhappy. You can buy the discount fairy doll in several versions, blond or brunette, blue dress or purple, silver wings or gold. But no matter which model you choose, she appears to come with penis.

  • Drone porn is a con as old as the handicam: “Bang Bus” fooled viewers into thinking it was actually picking up random girls from off the street. “Amateur” and “casting couch” porn shot by companies fools people into thinking the participants have “never done that before.” Same with “girlfriend revenge” porn sites from large porn companies: the women are under contract. Now one of Manwin’s sites is proffering “drone porn” — ostensibly to cash in on the voyeur market. That site really freaked out one very naive writer at The Verge (who has apparently never heard of 2257 laws).

  • A Japanese woman who makes art based on her vulva has been charged with obscenity, in a case that has sparked discussion on censorship. Mass media continues to confuse ‘vagina’ (inside) with ‘vulva’ (outside) in this case, and it’s really annoying everyone with a brain.

  • Two centuries after his death, the descendants of the notorious Marquis de Sade have finally embraced their once-reviled relative. The French aristocrat scandalised his contemporaries with his erotic works which saw him locked in prisons and an insane asylum for 32 years. Now, the eldest member of the dynasty, Elzear de Sade, has said the family are no longer ashamed of their controversial ancestor and has reclaimed the title of marquis which has not been used since his 1814.

  • Jezebel and Washington Post report a fake study: Jezebel (Isha Aran) and Washington Post (Roberto A. Ferdman) have been taken in by that religious anti-porn study I warned you about this weekend (and was debunked by Reason). It’s not a study, it’s a “discussion paper” based on a religious survey that was put in headlines on conservative news sites. It’s amazing to see Jezebel and Washington Post get so obviously suckered. (Jezebel, Washington Post)

  • China’s most prolific underwear thief terrorised his neighbours in a one-man crime wave that was anything but brief … it lasted more than a decade. The underwear bandit, named only as Tan, had hidden more than 2,000 pairs of pilfered pants and brassieres in the cavity above his bedroom in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region’s second-largest metropolis and was caught when the ceiling of his apartment collapsed under the weight of his stash. He had amassed the vast – and colourful – trove of lingerie by creeping into his neighbours’ homes and snatching their smalls when they were at work.

  • Australian artist Tully Arnot has constructed a simple little mechanized sculpture that spends its solitary days constantly liking every person that comes up in its Tinder feed. Titled Lonely Sculpture, the piece uses a rubber finger attached to a small motor. It’s all been perfectly timed to Tinder’s refresh rate for potential love.
