Florida Criminal HIV Transmission Law Overturned in Same-Sex Cases

18 July 2011

Remember back in mid-May of this year when Florida lawmakers finally passed that anti-bestiality law they'd been working on for three legislative sessions -- partially because of the legislators' reluctance to discuss the bill because children sometimes attend legislative sesions? Remember more recently, when (according to the Sarasota Herald-Tribune) "a […]

China’s Sex Toy “Boom”

9 July 2011

Sifting the imagined facts from the meaningless ones in the lengthy China Daily story "A Kiss of Life For Sex Toys" is even more work than doing that same task with articles about sex in the mainstream western media.

5 July 2011

I had a feeling the Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher sex trafficking cause would go off the rails: it did exactly that this past weekend. Back in April when I saw that Moore and Kutcher had launched an anti-child-sex-trafficking campaign ("Real Men Don’t Buy Girls" and the Demi and Ashton […]

2 July 2011

The Village Voice has launched an investigation into the numbers behind Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore's anti-child-sex-trafficking campaign, and it turns out trans kids (and literally any underage "outsider" has been lumped into their statistics.

PTSD, BDSM, and Mac McClelland’s “Violent Sex” (At Gunpoint) Memoir

28 June 2011

A journalist named Mac McClelland covers human rights issues and politics for Mother Jones and other publications. I decided she's extra cool when I saw her phenomenally ballsy, if problematic, piece about wanting to get fucked at gunpoint. That's a gross oversimplification of what the article is about; basically, it's about […]

Back in January 2010 I did a popular post here called Bigger Bombshells Bring It On, featuring "plus size" fashion model Crystal Renn in various states of undress. This post was a celebration of curvy girls, in reaction to then-current curvy-model controversy and it has lots of heated comments. If […]

On April 28, my contact at NetGeo emailed me with previews of their channel's upcoming "Taboo" episodes - and many of them are about sex and fetishes. I was excited, as I'm longtime friends with an Emmy award winning NatGeo director, and I've come to expect quality and respect for […]

Wednesday Nibbles: Bogus STD Remedies, AI Programs Have Orgasms, Amazon Pulls Yaoi

4 May 2011

Us - this new generation of sex-positive sex educators - come from the perspective that sex is inherently positive, good for you (healthy), and we emphasize sexual pleasure (as opposed to traditional teaching, which is reproduction-focused). On the most-read at Wall Street Journal right now is a baby step in […]

Do not watch this trailer if you dislike horror, gore, blood, obviously fake special effects or have acute and easily-triggered vagina dentata phobias.

Yes, Viagra beer. No, (sadly) not real Viagra, but I'd still LOVE to try it: Scottish Brewery Introduces Royal Viagra Beer (ABC News) Really, I'm amazed to see the Wall Street Journal publish something with no peer review, so brazenly lacking accuracy and authority and offensive - really, AOL and […]

I've professed my love for Fleet Ilya's incredible leather products before as part of my Coco deMer ogling (such as Coco's Ilya Fleet Leather harness and the Ilya Fleet Leather Cane), yet I'd never really cruised their website. It's well worth it - at least, it is now. They've put […]

A while back, CNN's resident anti-porn commando Ian Kerner came up with the term SADD, or Sexual Attention Deficit Disorder, to describe what happens when a guy watches too much internet porn and then doesn't care whether or not his lady-friend gets the attention she deserves. Though Kerner has […]
