Image by UrbanPhotographer2007. I just couldn’t resist the title after the last post. Here’s an interesting post about looking at men as mere sex objects for our consumption, based around the growing obsession with Twilight’s Robert Pattinson. It’s a pretty heteronormative view, but try it on as a reflection of what’s changing in mainstream female…

Female sexual desires and male misplaced chivalry
The question I posed: An email is making me wonder — are men more disturbed by certain sexual fantasy situations than women out of a misplaced sense of chivalry? Last week I got an email from friends (a couple) who run a fetish website that is about fantasies involving female submission in scenarios that include…
Do not forget: The rules of prime time homo hypocrisy
Who knew anyone could make American Idol culturally relevant? Even my (very) straight male friends have been sending these news items in disbelief, like: > “They just can’t believe the nature of the content, the explicit nature, and how much graphic content there was.” (BBC News: Adam Lambert’s gay kiss on stage gets 1,500 complaints)…
Do not forget: The rules of doppleganger sex
Since we’re ready for a season of sequels and plotlines that jump the shark (such as doppelgangers and evil clones/twins), it makes sense to remind you all of the rules surrounding doppleganger sex. (via sex is not the enemy; originally in this awful and hilarious Something Awful Photoshop contest chock full of many life lessons,…
Pure adorable, pure pleasure, pure design pr0n: Jimmyjane’s new Form 2 video
My pals at Jimmyjane *just* sent me their new video for the Form 2 (made with designer Yves Béhar)– the high-end designer vibe that everyone wants. The video is utterly adorable and shows you why it’s such a hot item (and it’ll make you smile, I promise, even if you hate smiling). I’ve seen a…
Fashion and lullabyes: Plato’s Atlantis by Alexander McQueen
Slow and moody but very sexy: here is designer Alexander McQueen’s video for the Spring Summer 2010 line, “Plato’s Atlantis Part 1.” (via ponyXpress)
The Art of Restraint through my Android’s simulated voyeurcam
Last saturday I had the opportunity to attend this season’s Art of Restraint at feminist art gallery Femina Potens, where the theme was gratitude. For those of you outside the US, that was a nod at Thanksgiving, our contrived holiday about giving thanks for a mythological event having to do with pilgrims and Native Americans…
Internet vices, hold the sex
This spot-on list of Internet vices (patrickmoberg.com) contains zero sex, which is actually one of the reasons it’s notable. Because while everyone makes hysterical noise about the dangers of sex on the Internet (in all its guises), the places where we most lose our virtue are indeed in the back alleys of social media sharing.…
Adult retro sci-fi bookcovers suggest interplanetary Muppet sexual abuse
i09 post Cheesiest And Most Inappropriate Book Covers Of All Time (io9.com) has all kinds of hilarious retro eroto eye candy, and a whole smattering of probably offensive old covers in the “inappropriate” section. I just really liked the sexy ones; any babe with blue skin and four breasts is means there’s just more to…
From Penny Flame to Becoming Jennie: On her own terms
Photo taken when I met Penny Flame – Jennie Ketcham – at the InterContinental Hotel downtown SF. L to R: Jennie, Tristan Taormino, Sinnamon Love, Adrianna Nicole. This week’s SF Chronicle column came from a conversation I had on the set of Courtney Trouble‘s next film, where I chatted about how cool it was that…
