following up on the “sex robot”

9 February 2010
Image of Chris Cunningham's work by Fozzman. So, there was an overwhelming amount of noise a month ago about "Roxxxy" the "sex robot". Where is she now? Well, I can tell you that she's on sale right now; the price on TrueCompanion.com has been slashed by $500. Most importantly, what was […]

Danny Choo’s photos from Tokyo Wonderfest 2010

8 February 2010
Image by Danny Choo. I'm always excited when former Amazon site manager Danny Choo goes to a convention (such as Tokyo's Wonder Festival). He takes fabulous photos, the images are typically naughty in nature yet not explicit, and he features them in elaborate blog posts that are often festooned with hilarious […]

sew cute: It’s Only Sex fabric

8 February 2010
I'm not a particularly craft-focused girl (I prefer machinery) but when a reader sent me this fabric from an Etsy seller, I had to share my delight. Our reader domesticat writes, There's an etsy seller -- obviousart, in Oregon -- who got a contract to do some line art for a […]

sex education in media: my January class

4 February 2010
In January, I taught a class on sex ed and online media, including brand presentation, social media hacks for individuals and organizations, and working toward viral content. It was one of my best talks. The first of SFSI's public continuing education classes (aimed at sex educators), it was standing room […]

call for submissions: Best Women’s Erotica 2011

2 February 2010
Image of my just-released collection, Best of the Best Women's Erotica. Wow, 2011 seems so much like it's in "the future". It's amazing, I didn't think I'd be with this series so long: I honestly walk away from, and hand off projects when I fall out of love with them. Nope, […]

unexpected, exciting: independent review of my kissing book!

2 February 2010
This caught me by surprise -- and I expected to click on it and read harsh criticism. Why? Maybe because I really wrote this book differently than the rest, or maybe because I need to write *more* books... Or maybe write in more styles that stretch me, make me take […]

Australia is back on the pipe

29 January 2010
Image by Tenebras Lux Studios. What are they smoking Down Under on the censor boards? I mean, it was a mess before, but now it's looking like... crack. Not the kind of 'crack' we like, either. * I was sent this a few days ago: the top item this week is that […]

a pornographic palate cleanser

29 January 2010
Image by Bob Coulter from this gallery. Erotic entertainment for the purpose of titillation has been missing from these posts for a bit; hopefully this post will restore some balance. I've got a lot stored up, and hopefully there's something you like in the following very explicit handpicked selections I've made. * […]

porn stars in love: “Off The Set” with Paulie and Pauline

Jesse Jane, who is both adorable and super-sweet. In yesterday's San Francisco Chronicle column, I was excited to feature and interview NYC-based, erotic photographic couple Paulie and Pauline about their upcoming book "Off The Set".

suffer the children, the please make it stop edition

27 January 2010
This photo is not pornographic! Unless you want it to be. It's just Jack and his new pony. Two topics seem to be urgently circling back on news items we've been following here for a while. Neither will make you happy or horny, and for that I will promise to make […]

bigger bombshells bring it on

26 January 2010
"No one wants to see curvy women.” --Karl Lagerfeld O, rly? I've been looking for an excuse to point you to this month's V Magazine's Curves Ahead photo spread, featuring several sexily undressed models with more padding than the average couture coathangar -- it's a hell of a shoot that does not […]

monday nibbles

25 January 2010
Image by new discovery Johannes Schwab (joschwab.com). It's very nice to be back; Tiny Nibbles was up and down all day (thanks to everyone who let me know and sent me data), and it was more than a little heart wrenching. I tend to hyperventilate when something happens to my site; […]

tumblr adds new erotica category

22 January 2010
We love Tumblr sex blogs because they are so diverse, a fertile place to discover hot new artists, and to see sexual expression we won't see anywhere else; we hate Tumblr blogs because of the rampant attribution issues and frustrating lack of source credits. Oh, and they screwed me (not […]

dating site OK Cupid analyzes profile pic data, examines myths

21 January 2010
Image by helenaa75; if this was your profile pic you would be too busy for the OKTrends blog. I love the OKTrends blog; dating website OKCupid has some brainy sexy nerds working there, for sure. They have a fetish for completing data and stat crunching projects about dating and member habits, […]

20 January 2010
If you're reading this blog post on eros.topnewsdigest.com, it has been stolen and reproduced without permission from tinynibbles.com. Yes, I'm going to do something about it. They are stealing from a number of sex bloggers. In other, erm, news, I found a link to The Top 10 Most Bizarre Sex Ed […]

lovely lovely House of Bias

19 January 2010
A moment of fetish fashion and general ogling: meet Chicago-based House of Bias. I stumbled across HoB on Twitter and spent considerable time thumbing through their generous, fleshy, nippletastic galleries and online shop; not only do they have some of the most creative and attractive jaw-dropping rubber couture, but they […]
