Image by eMCi photo. It was my discovery of the blog Men In Porn that reminded me we haven’t been objectifying men enough around here, and I mean the in an entirely good way. You know I’m a big fan of Guys With iPhones (in fact, it gets overused on other blogs so I don’t…

The submissions are all in for American Apparel’s “best bottom” contest; when it was announced in January, reactions ranged from outrage and cries of “sexism!” to pervy excitement and posterior posturing of all kinds.
