Sunday Sex Reads: Best of the Week

“Mickey Mod, an adult film performer who has appeared in multiple sports-related films, sees football porn as a place where male viewers get a twofer, “Just as you see with sports, people want to be able to be in the shoes of their favorite player, and people want to envision themselves in the position of male performers.””

Along with all the other hazards of 200,000 visitors descending on one place at the same time, one is talked about with increasing frequency—sex trafficking. For years, the urban myth of increased sex trafficking has followed the Superbowl (and Olympics, and World Cup) around like an unwanted cousin at a tailgate barbecue. An increasing number of groups are intent on persuading Americans that we have a terrible and growing problem with sex trafficking. Their data is virtually non-existent, elided with words like “experts agree” and “shameful epidemic.”

“In 2016, Sinthetics wants to further revolutionize sex with manikins marketed towards women. The Kellers first started designing male manikins for gay customers, according to Bronwen. “The gay market felt underrepresented,” she explains. Then a woman purchased a doll, and Sinthetics decided to produce silicone men specifically for women. Now they’ll see if women can surpass the stigmas surrounding sex dolls.”

“I’d just returned from CES, where it was obvious that sex and tech were finally coming together. Despite my rather unfortunate experiences weeks prior, I was feeling inspired. That’s when Kiiroo came into my life. Like a serendipitous orgasm harbinger, it promised to take my “sex life to new heights” through teledildonics.”

“When my grandmother died last summer at 97, my family asked me to write the eulogy. … Though I managed to patch together a tribute that communicated the sheer abundance of her 97 years, and hinted at her progressiveness, I was struck by what I couldn’t include, perhaps one of her greatest gifts: her sex positivity.”

Unbelievable. Have they heard of science? “A Utah state senator is blaming that devil pornography for creating a “sexually toxic environment,” increasing the demand for prostitution and ruining families. Sen. Todd Weiler introduced anti-porn legislation last Friday, asking that the state recognize that porn is creating a public health hazard. He called for a reform to take on the “pornography epidemic that is harming the citizens of Utah and the nation.” The politician told the Daily News that porn was more addictive than powerful drugs, and the public needed to start seeing adult films as a national epidemic.”

Sex chatbots don’t even have to be that good to do their job. These aren’t being created to pass the Turing Test, the legendary challenge named after artificial intelligence pioneer Alan Turing which aims to convince a human she’s talking with another person and not a machine. Their sole purpose is to get the dater to want to chat more. And a pent-up dude online is the easiest mark. As acclaimed AI researcher Bruce Wilcox puts it, “Many people online want to talk about sex. With chat bots, they don’t require a lot of convincing.”

“When many in the mainstream public think of escorts, they often think of brothels, madams, and pimps, but the reality is that many escorts work independently. … Whether it’s the fear of losing money or being in physical danger, the way in which escorts vet and screen their clients to see if they’re actually legit is quite important. We spoke to some independent escorts of different backgrounds to see how they make sure the people they’re spending time with are for real.”
