my guide to sexual fantasies on the iPod Touch (or iPhone)!

4 July 2009
My friend really made me squeal and do a happy dance when he showed me that with the Amazon Kindle app, you can get any of my books and read them easily on an iPod Touch or iPhone! And what's super cool is that it's cheaper on Kindle, and the […]

Australian navy’s sex games

4 July 2009
Image "Performance" by elaisted. My question is, did the women have a game too? Like, navy girls get more points when you strap it on and play "bend over, mister officer"? Turnabout is fair play, after all. Australia probes navy 'sex game': An investigation is under way in Australia over claims that […]

a minute on “The Training Of O” set

3 July 2009
Last weekend was SF LGBT Pride, and the festivities coincided with a lot of other goings-on; it's a complicated story (and yes, one that could probably only happen to me) but I happened to end up at a porn shoot on the set for The Training Of O, and I […]

great interview: Laura Jackson on quitting stripping and the recession

3 July 2009
Image of Laura Jackson by Romy Suskin. Over at The Rumpus, there's a great interview series that just started about sex work and the recession: Recession Strippers 1: The Laura Jackson Experience. In it, Jackson talks about why she can't quit dancing and the effects of the recession on her job. […]

hot, naughty, NSFW… autism?

3 July 2009
Praemedia sent me a link to Sociological Images' post about using sex to sell -- autism awareness. The videos above are particularly surreal, and the Rethinking Autism video page has a few more from the campaign. They're intended to counter misinformation about autism; Leeann Tweeden, Playboy model and FHM cover […]

stay cool

2 July 2009
Image of Jenni from this absolutely gorgeous outdoor infinity pool gallery. It seems like everyone is having a heatwave right now. So just for you, I took it upon myself to toil over my steamy little laptop and comb though the endless stream of free hosted galleries I get and pick […]

this week’s SF Chron column: the dildroid and iPhone sex apps

1 July 2009
Image by CoreForce. This week's San Francisco Chronicle column is a brief and ridiculous history of people trying to make the iPhone into a sex toy, sex phone apps, and a mixture of dismay, bemusement, hope for the Android, and a sigh of resignation that no one's going to be imaginative […]

dakimakura

1 July 2009
Image by Danny Choo. A dakimakura is a kind of large pillow from Japan. The name means "hugging pillow". Danny Choo got a couple of adult anime dakimakura pillow covers and had quite an interesting time reviewing them. But then, Danny Choo is a really unusual guy, and so we can […]

a tale of two obscenity trial outcomes

1 July 2009
Image "Forensic Mistress" by Randem. I'm endlessly fascinated with obscenity law, the definitions and interpretations of what's deemed obscene from one community, individual -- or country -- to the next, and how it all rests in the eye of the beholder. How it varies in detail and context between the UK […]

love ain’t the problem

30 June 2009
The SF LGBT Pride parade yearly attracts in excess of over one million visitors to San Francisco -- more than doubling the population of our City for a weekend. Someone with copies of the notorious "Love ain't the problem / Stand up against h8" graphic taped up a few posters […]

ask, and… yeah.

30 June 2009
What's great is that I was about to randomly post this gallery of Stoya and Astrid and their strap-on session for no reason other than the chemistry is hot, I'm procrastinating work on two anthologies, it would make for a gratuitous porn post and I'm always trying to think of […]

and now, something completely excellent – study: Vibrator Use Common, Linked To Sexual Health

29 June 2009
Image from this explicit free gallery, because I can. Now here's a study we can sink our collected [redacted] into. Totally transparent, they cite their data sources, they provide links to the studies so you can decide for yourself what you think, and it's full of interesting data. Plus it makes […]

heteronormative attraction studies are *so cute* when they’re still babies!

29 June 2009
Gratuitous nude gallery of Natalia A here. This item made me fascinated; not in a totally snarky way, but in a 'I wonder who their samples were, what populations they asked, etc.' because that would actually give me some useful data. Sex and attraction studies are oft cited for generalizations in […]

from the fashion archives: Kate Moss

29 June 2009
I just randomly came across this set of Kate Moss from last year's September 2008 issue of W Magazine. The whole incredibly sultry, nipple-tatstic and very sexy set is here.

surreal: April Flores glitter suicide in my bathtub

29 June 2009
Last month when Courtney Trouble, April Flores, Carlos Batts, Kim Kane and others invaded my house to shoot some indie porn, I wasn't in the rooms when they were shooting so I didn't see what they did. And that was fine with me; I was thrilled to have these exciting […]

hot queer girl monday

29 June 2009
Image from Roulette – a porn shoot (...). I missed pretty girl friday -- but after a weekend of celebrating SF LGBTQ Pride, working (getting snidely called an "activist" at the porn expo onstage by another sex writer), networking while everyone and their gay porny sibling is in town, and being […]

happy gay pride weekend from Miss California (not)

26 June 2009
Image by malecution. This week's SF Chronicle column was fun to write; instead of the usual SF Pride guide, I wrote a faux how-to guide to staying "safe" from homosexual activity in San Francisco over the weekend from ex Miss California Carrie Prejean, who is actually more famous for being against […]

China’s online “porn” ban to extend to sexual health sites

25 June 2009
Image by Danny Choo. This is getting really out of control -- extreme, bizarre and I think now has the potential to become dangerous. There have been a lot of headlines about the Chinese government's intent and implementation to ban not only whatever they deem pornographic but also "vulgar information". Another […]

what happens when I get “behind” in my blogging

25 June 2009
Image of Claire Adams and Lorelei Lee from this gallery. I have no idea where this week went, except I know I've been really busy -- though not as busy as the enthusiastic, happy pervs over at Kink who just launched the new site Everything Butt! It's about... you know, butts: […]
