thursday nibbles: the dot XXX edition

24 June 2010

* It doesn't matter how you felt about the idea of .xxx domains for porn sites -- tomorrow ICANN is making their decision, and all signs point to yes. They're saying it won't be made "mandatory" for websites. Not sure how they'd enforce that one, anyway. With all the hysteria […]

24 June 2010

Worth a look: Fashion Gone Rogue has the whole gallery of Ali Mahdavi & The Girls of Crazy Horse by Ellen von Unwerth for Tank Summer 2010 (fashiongonerogue.com). It defies description, and I think it's just a treat. So playful, so sexy and so strange.

the psychology of masturbation and explicit sexual imagery

22 June 2010

I love how Mind Hacks tells us that psychologist Jesse Bering's article about masturbation "has ick and wow in equal measure" -- but also calls it "absolutely remarkable." And that it is. Bering writes for Scientific American, and is one of those writers whose genius lies in being able to […]

22 June 2010

Seeing as the subject of women watching porn is a hot topic right now (again), it's fitting for me to point you toward The Female Gaze, a film competition from woman-owned, porn-for-women site For The Girls. It's not just about women watching, it's about what they're making for the enjoyment […]

Portland’s World Naked Bike Ride 2010

17 June 2010

I don't know anything about Portland's World Naked Bike Ride 2010 except that this Hottie McHot goth girl exhibitionist was there making the male bike riders pedal faster. (I would count myself in that category as well.) I also don't know who she is, but I've been following her […]

the X-Ray pin-up calendar: Eizo Pin-Ups 2010

And that is exactly what medical monitor supply company Eizo is providing in the creepy-compelling Eizo 2010 X-Ray Pin-Up calendar. (ufunk.net, Thanks, […]

16 June 2010

At tumbleblog me in my place (meinmyplace.com), it's just girls in their apartments, in clothes, and yet so very sexy. What a great idea and stellar (hi-res) execution. More evidence showing that you don't need the clothes off for a big turn-on, though we already knew that. (Thanks M!) More […]

14 June 2010

Stumbling across the three-part Asperger’s Syndrome Sex series on Carnal Nation presented information that stopped me in my tracks: suddenly so many tech, geek and nerd relationships I've seen go from geek love to tragedy made so much sense. It was like having a light turned on in a dark […]
