cross your legs tight, and read about the g-shot

29 June 2007
In early June, the Chronicle/SF Gate devoted a few miles of HTML to an article about the "G-Shot". This is a new procedure where women who feel (or are convinced they feel) G-Spot inadequacy, have a shot of collagen injected into their urethra. The idea behind the G-Shot is ostensibly […]

quote of the week

29 June 2007
"I have to get back to watching more Vivid porn, mostly because I don't have my revolver, which is lucky for everyone involved because I'd hate for the office manager to have to write BASURA across my dead body." --a fellow porn reviewer

get smart: the smart girl’s guide to the g-spot is here!

28 June 2007
I've got three new books out that I'm just now getting a chance to blog about. Part of the lag time has been because my publisher hasn't gotten me copies of the books, which is unusual and more than a bit frustrating -- especially when the way I discovered my […]

audacia ray invades san francisco

28 June 2007
I'm so excited about Waking Vixen bringing her book tour for her fabulous, history-making tome Naked on the Internet to San Francisco that I interviewed her about being an ultra-fabulous sex blogger in today's Chron/SF Gate column. It was either that or buy a dozen cupcakes and gleefully, hysterically roll […]

of pride and porn

27 June 2007
Image: "Violet Blue at SF Pride" by Kevco. The video is edited and up, the photos are posted and tagged and trussed up like little snacklets of my experience all weekend. The thoughts in my head are about politics and equality and coming back to some very interesting porn (as I […]

wikipedia traffic metrics: sex ed top in searches

27 June 2007
There's a wee post over on a traffic metrics blog showing that sex (sex ed, especially) is high in Wikipedia search rankings, beating music and movies, and tying with "pop culture". I wish the author would have included specifics on which sex ed topics are being searched for. But it […]

christian spanking porn

22 June 2007
Sex writer Greta Christina is quite unnerved by the very real spanking practices in certain fundamentalist christian "biblical marriages" -- and she wrote an (ahem) heavy-handed post about it on the Blowfish blog. They even have their own "romantic spanking fiction" for "Christian Domestic Discipline marriage". Interesting, no?

[video] sex toy gifts from good vibes

22 June 2007
Good Vibes (my former employer) asked me to their warehouse a week ago to give me some toys they thought I might enjoy reviewing. I got some very funny video out of it, both there and when I got home, including a cameo or two by my very wary cat, […]

viva la revolucion: mah sexy sf pride guide

21 June 2007
This week's column on the SFGate/Chron is Ten Ways to Get Lubed in San Francisco, which is a very grownup Pride visitor's guide, but is also a handy resource for seeing the sexy sights whenever you visit. The Gate turned on comments for this column, and I just made the […]

shadow and light excerpts

20 June 2007
Sweet reader, SVG emails me about the hot hardcore graphic novel series, Shadow and Light -- I reviewed a couple of these when I worked at Good Vibes and loved them, and the images in their (slightly censored, bah!) sample galleries are too hot not to share. Above image is […]

john hodgman on ebay — damn, he’s not cheap

20 June 2007
Apparently right now on eBay you can bid on a personal pre-show tour of the Daily Show studios right now, led by John Hodgman. I really enjoyed seeing him read in SF last year. I would totally expect a lap dance at those prices, though. The kind where you get […]

catching up on my media: the tommy chong video

20 June 2007
You prolly already saw thins but if you didn't... The segment on the Colbert Report, where Chong describes something so explicit Colbert actually blushes up to his ears (even in the Quicktime version you can see it!), but only after Colbert succinctly breaks down the news/comment/opinion reward cycle for useless […]

my injured motorcycle friend

Many of you have lit candles, said prayers of all kinds, and sent concerned emails about my friend Amacker who was in a very serious motorcycle accident about 2 weeks ago. She lost control of her motorcycle and suffered an internal decapitation. We can all keep up with her *incredible*, […]

a day with the Sanyo Xacti waterproof videocamera

15 June 2007
As seen on Scott's post (image via), last night I got my hands on an about-to-be-released Sanyo Xacti E1 waterproof video camera (thanks Irina!). So today I took it to the beach -- among other, ahem, places. I love it! wish I had one of my own -- except now […]
