I really admire the beauty in those European pinup models (and big-name photographers) at Met Art and generally regard their work highly — the combination of tasteful and explicit content with fairly wholesome-looking, natural ladies unarguably puts our domestic men’s magazines to shame. But I’ve always wondered what the vibe is during the shoots, and…

In which we are certain your vagina does not need a breath mint
Image by yasu529. This is one of those items that does not necessarily have a happy ending, nor give anyone happy face (especially not anyone who deep-sixes a dubious suppository into their precious parts). However, the last word on the topic, provided by longtime friend, colleague and fellow sex educator Charlie Glickman had me rooting…
Lascivious housewares
I’ve been angling to do a lascivious housewares post for a few days now, and while longtime readers know how much I’ve yearned for the Seven Deadly Sins Plate Set, I found a few things that make me want to spend money I don’t have and complete my wanna-be naughty cupboard collection. (I include my…
The thing is, if I had a penis I don’t think I’d stick it in a Cuisinart
But I’ll admit that the video by Kanojo Toys for the (Japanese) Ona Max Revolution Sex Machine (kanojotoys.com) is a must-see. Especially since I’m surprised it hasn’t been pulled from YT yet… But, wow. Here’s another classic from Kanojo, sans testicle-dildo demo:
Female sexual desire a la the NYT Magazine
Image by Half Pinay – Laretta Houston. There’s a really interesting, in-depth article about the research around women and sexual desire in the NYT Magazine. Caveat that it’s in the NYT Magazine because if you don’t clear your cookied or use some kind of bugmenot, they still make you log in to read it —…
UK university job offer to study lapdancing pays less than lapdancing
Just found this item: Leeds University advertises for lap dance research officer (telegraph.co.uk). The advertised position is for: “Research Officer – The rise and regulation of lap dancing and the place of sexual labour and consumption in the night time economy”. The ad states that “prior experience of conducting research in the female sex industry”…
The conflicted existence of a female porn writer
Image via limbic. After finding this essay on McSweeney’s, I’ve had it in the lineup waiting to share it with you. Funny, interesting, well written, and all too familiar… Here’s a snip from the middle of The Conflicted Existence of a Female Porn Writer by Lynsey G.: (…) After a few months of reviewing, the…
Real, honest female orgasm advice
When out at lunch with a friend recently, she asked for some serious sexual advice for her friend. Her friend, it turns out (and really, it was her friend, not herself) — her friend is a 22 year old woman who has never had an orgasm. Miss 22, she found out, had told her this…

Thankful for every imperfection
Image by the delightful photographer, Many rivers to cross. Reading over the latest news about cosmetic vaginal surgery on the increase in the UK, I kept thinking about last Saturday when I was at the Femina Potens gallery. I remembered the final scene of the night’s performances, where beautiful model Madison Young (and gallery owner)…
