When It Rains...

Yeah, I'm blogging from home, what of it?? Even after I clock out for the day, I still keep my web trollin' eyes pealed for good stuff to post. And of course I continue to read Jezebel when I get home - clearly I don't get enough time in front of the computer during the day. Anyway, I hopped online tonight and found this awesome post about female ejaculation (or shejaculation) by Slut Machine over at the Jez. Seriously, I should get $$$ for how much I promote those ladies. Hear that Gawker??

When I first heard about female ejaculation, I thought it was a bullshit myth invented by women who accidentally pee during sex, and one supported by fetishists who wanted to believe in it -- until it happened to me. I was 25 and had been having sex for about 8 years (not consistently, I should say).

I have no idea why my body chose that moment -- in the middle of a reverse cowgirl with some dude I'd just met a few hours before -- to bust out its new parlor trick; in fact, there were a lot of things that confused me about what happened, like, "Where did that fluid come from and what is it? Is there something wrong with me? How did this happen? And why did it feel good?"


Definitely read the rest of the post here. And don't forget to read the comments as well!


Not only am I a little jealous because I've never squirted, but I've never even SEEN it in person. I know! I'm all submerged in the sex/sexuality world and here I am, a shejaculation virgin. What will the neighbors think!


Ok, back to doing homework.

Early Birthday Gift

Dear Santa -

Yeah, I know Christmas is over (way over for a jew like me), but this stationary is so insanely awesome that I figured that you couldn't pass it up. Unforch it's sold out right now on Etsy, so if you could get an elf on that, I'd really appreciate it.

<3 Debaucherous J


Seriously, these cards might make the best 'thank you' cards I could ever imagine. What says "thanks for the gift card, Grandma" better than a little vag?? The artist, Snew, also offers cards with anotomical hearts, livers and, comepletely unrelated, super cute cupcakes.

Check out the Esty page here. (Etsy via Jezebel)

All the good stuff flies off the shelves.

Sex Workers Hit the Stage!

Alright, break yourself out of hibernation for a minute. Here is an awesome reason to leave the house when it's so damn cold (at least where I am):

The Sex Workers' Art Show Tour is coming to your town!

The show is an eye-popping evening of visual and performance art created by people who work in the sex industry to dispel the myth that they are anything short of artists, innovators, and geniuses!

The wildly successful cabaret-style show is hitting the road again, bringing audiences a blend of spoken word, music, drag, burlesque, and multimedia performance art. Intelligent and hot, disturbing and hilarious, the performances offer a wide range of perspectives on sex work, from celebration of prostitutes' rights and sex-positivity to views from the darker sides of the industry.

This year's incredible lineup of performers includes international burlesque sensation and winner of the “Best Body in Burlesque” award, Miss Dirty Martini; infamous feminist author of I Love Dick Chris Kraus; award-winning author of the coming-out memoir How I Learned to Snap, Kirk Read; porn star and writer Lorelei Lee; performance artist and comic queen of cleavage The World Famous *BOB*; performer and musical theatre mutineer Erin Markey; fierce activist and rapper Tre Vasquez; internationally infamous drag-subverter Krylon Superstar; dominatrix and destroyer of Asian feminine mythology Keva I. Lee; and tour founder and director Annie Oakley.

Special guest at select locations: platinum-selling hip-hop queen Trina!

The show includes people from all areas of the sex industry: strippers, prostitutes, dommes, film stars, phone sex operators, internet models, etc. It smashes traditional stereotypes and moves beyond "positive" and "negative" into a fuller articulation of the complicated ways sex workers experience their jobs and their lives. The Sex Workers' Art Show entertains, arouses, and amazes while simultaneously offering scathing and insightful commentary on notions of class, race, gender, labor and sexuality!

Click here for more info and a tour schedule (Unfortunately I only heard about this halfway through the tour).

Fingers crossed that the Feb. 12 TBA show will be in Philly!!

Jellyfish

Some people love sex toys that are shaped like animals or have adorable, cuddly faces. I am not one of those people. I prefer my toys to be a little less cutesy. While the Jellyfish dildo is, in fact, shaped like Jellyfish resting atop a post, with it’s squiggly tentacles coming down to form a textured layer around the shaft, it is not quite what I would call cute. It’s a little weird looking to be honest, but hey, like I’ve said before, once it’s inside your body, you don’t actually have to look at it (yes, I know this idea is in direct conflict to my first comment, but I still stand by not having cuddly animals in my junk).

Aside from the Jellyfish’s unconventional looks, I was pretty wary of its girth. At 5½ inches circumference, this sucker is thick! When I first picked it up, I though ‘no way is thing going to even fit inside me’ but alas, after getting warmed up, I proved myself wrong. The textured tentacles ended up being bizarrely enjoyable (the first and only time I will ever write that phrase) and worked as an added distraction from thinking about the thickness of the shaft.

Alls well that ends well and I ended up having a lot of fun with my new Jellyfish pal. And while she may not come out to play all that often, I know there will be times when she will be just the one to hit the spot.

Enjoy waves and waves of pleasure with the Jellyfish

Hump Day Word Of The Week!

There are many words that you may stumble upon while trolling for porn that are foreign to you. Some of them are exclusive to the dirty reality we live in, some words mean something completely different in the context of an adult film than they do in the real world, and some may actually be foreign. In an effort to help you find movies that will get you off and impress your boyfriend with your crazy porn knowledge, the lovely ladies of Hm4her would like to introduce our new weekly post, The Hump Day Word of the Week!

Our goal is to educate the masses and explain why we giggle every time you mention the convenience of an ATM. In the end, hopefully you’ll be better able to find the kind of porn you want to see, because trust me, if you can imagine it, it’s out there. If there’s something that needs explainin’ let us know and we’ll do our best to help you out, dear readers.

Now for today’s word: Looner

I grew up in the part of New York that might as well be Canada, so the first time I saw the word “looner” in a movie title, I couldn’t for the life of me figure what role Canadian money could possibly have in a porno. Loonie, Canada’s bronze-plated one dollar coin, was the only reference point I had and I sure was confused. It turns out that a looner is actually a balloon fetishist - and that, of course, can manifest itself in a million different ways!

Balloon fetishism is a sexual fetishist in which a person has an unusual fascination of, or pertaining to, balloons, which provides sexual arousal or stimulation. Many persons with this fetish casually refer to themselves as looners (from Ballooners). The fetish itself varies greatly from person to person, some people enjoy only the act of inflation itself or viewing members of their desired sex inflating balloons, while others enjoy the act of popping by various means, while yet others simply find stimulation in the color, clarity, smell, tactile sense, sound, and movement of the balloon itself. There are several known female balloon fetishists, however the vast majority is made up of men. – Wikipedia

Are You There God? It's Me Flickr

With yesterday's blog on female hysteria and sexual dysfunction, it's nice to see a people actually talking about women's bodies and health... well, in a roundabout way.

Yesterday our fav. trash-talkin' blog queens at Jezebel wrote up a blurb about No So Fresh Feeling, the Flickr group that post pictures related to anything have to do with being on the rag, riding the crimson tide, Aunt Flo a-visiting, and any other euphamisim you can think of for mestruation. Lots of really funny and creative pics - including the one posted above and these totally awesome buttons that I desperately want. (Feel free to send them to me. No, really.)

Champ

I admit that I went into testing this toy with a little bit of bias. I generally like my dildos to look nothing like the “real thing” and this cock was all too realistic, with it’s “Caucasian” coloring, detailed glans and textured veins (though the blue “veins” looked like awful prison tattoos). And I can’t forget to mention the fleshy feel of Cyberskin.

This was my first experience with Cyberskin, and while I was intrigued by the squishy smoothness and give of the material, I wasn’t impressed with the lack of firmness factor. I found self penetration to be really difficult as the damn thing kept flopping around like a fish out of water. I will say that penetration was not a problem when the Champ was wrangled into a harness and being lead by a second party.

While I originally assumed that the ring of the harness would go around the cock and rest on the balls, because of the suction cup taking up significant real estate against the harness, we found that it worked better if the ring of the harness went around the suction cup itself. This is easily done by squishing up the cup to pull it through the ring. Nice and simple.

And speaking of the suction cup… Ok, so when I began reviewing toys, I told myself I would be as honest as I possibly could. I tried out the suction cup feature and can I just say, as interesting and hands-free an experience it was, I just can’t get passed the total ego sucker-punch that comes from fucking a wall. Yeah, didn’t really work for me.

All in all, this king-sized cock was a little too big and a little too realistic to get me going. I prefer dildos like Buzz and Sire, which are pseduo-realistic, but fun colors and don’t have balls attached. It’s not that I hated the Champ, it’s just that I didn’t really like it. I may use it again if that’s the first dick my hand hits while digging through the drawer, but only if I’m gettin’ busy with someone else. Like I said before, this toy did nothing for me solo.

Oh, one last thing. What, pray tell, is a European cock?? That’s what it says on the packaging and that’s what I’ve been trying to figure out since Champ landed on my desk.

If you’re looking to go for the gold with a realistic toy, Champ is the one for you.

Pussy Pain Needs Attention Too

Contrary to popular belief, sexual dysfunction doesn't only refer to guys problems with getting an erection. But because there is still such a stigma around women's sexuality, ED (erectile dysfunction for those of us that haven't watched TV in the last five years) is the one that gets all the attention. Well, finally people (well, the New York Times) are beginning to talk about female sexual dysfunction and the nightmare that some disorders can be. Imagine being in severe pain that doesn't even allow you to sit for too long, then having your doctor tell you that it's all in your mind. Viagra is dispensed like candy, while women are basically being called hysterical. Anyway, times are finally a-changin'. The NY Times speaks up.


When a woman complains of genital pain so severe that it makes sexual intercourse all but impossible, her partner may jump to the conclusion that she has a phobia about sex. But what if that same woman also experiences excruciating pain when trying to insert a tampon, undergo a pelvic exam, wear a pair of jeans, ride a bicycle or go jogging? Can phobia explain all those problems?

Not very likely. In fact, studies have shown that sexual phobias are rarely the explanation for a condition known as vulvodynia, a chronic discomfort of the vulva that can result in searing or shooting pain when any amount of pressure is placed on the sensitized tissues. Some women compare the feeling to acid being poured on an open wound.

The problem can last months, years or a lifetime. Worse, doctors often misdiagnose it or treat it inappropriately, if at all.

For decades, women suffering from vulvodynia have been told that nothing seems to be wrong with them — nothing, that is, that the examining physician can discern — or that the condition may be real but that nothing can be done.

Check out the whole article here. (newyorktimes.com via Jezebel)


At the very least one good thing came of the female hysteria diagnosis.

Jeez, looks like I can't stop thinking about painful and pain inflicting pussies today.

Best License Plate Ever!

My friend saw this license plate on the way into work today.

I love it.

If any of you don't know what a Sybian is, find out here!

SPOILER: Teeth is Awesome, Go See It!

The stars aligned for me this weekend and I actually got to see Teeth, the movie about vagina dentata that both the Porn Librarian and I have been blogging about. Again, as the title of this post says:

SPOILERS!!!! If you want to see this movie and not have any insider info, skip this post.

That said, holy crap this movie was good. The three sentence synopsis:

Dawn O' Keefe, an abstinence-promoting, squeaky clean high-schooler quickly realizes something is going on with her vagina after she is basically date raped. With a little Internet research and chilling trip to the gyno she figures out that she has vagina dentata, or a toothed vagina. Horrified at first, Dawn slowly realizes the power she possesses within herself (cheesy cliche made into an even cheesier pun, thank you).


Ok, now for what I thought of it. Wow. I wasn't sure what to expect really. I was thinking it was going to be more along the lines of a horror movie, but it was more a black comedy with little spurts of gore here and there. And I really wasn't expecting the social commentary on women's sexuality and empowerment by any means necessary. After Dawn learns what's going on in her vagina, she realizes that she can control it as well, and uses her "gift" to avenge the continuous sexual (both mental and physical) assault that she endures. Kinda like Batman, but so much better.

So, back to the commentary about women's sexuality, I think this fairly overt way of putting a "victim" back in the role of power and having her find strength or defense against reoccurring sexual trauma was accomplished in a really unique and engaging way within the story. The movie uses the culture of fear that our country is creating around sex (abstinence-only programs) and takes it one step further to include the equally fear-inducing idea of women's sexuality and women's agency as sexual beings. Mix that with our society's preoccupation with the vagina as a totally mysterious and even dangerous place and boom, you've got yourself one hell of an intense place to start a storyline. Then add some teeth to the vag to manifest that fear into something tangible to fight.

Oh, and I just need to mention the subtle reference to Georgia O' Keeffe with Dawn's last name (though it's not spelled the same). I know it could not just be coincidence that they name her something so close to the famed vagina flower painter.

Ok, academic rant over.

SPOILER over too.

To sum Teeth up in three words/phrases: thought-provoking; unexpected; funny (in a slightly creepy and macabe way)

This is a seriously good movie and I highly recommend it. Here is the actual movie site that has a trailer. And, like I posted before, the first five minutes are online here.

Go see it, then comment back.

Watch Porn instead of Scott Baio is a million...and whatever

As the writer strike continues on, I've trying to spend more time reading and playing ping pong, but last night I found myself missing The Office and flipping through pointless reality shows. What's a lazy girl to do?

Kaitlin Martin suggests we check out Tristan Taormino's brilliant reality series, Chemistry. Part Real World and all porn, Taormino shows us a behind the scenes look into porn stars lives that almost as interesting as the dirty bits!

Check out Martin's article here and J.D.'s movie review.

Teeth - Part 2

I know that J.D. already wrote about the new black comedy Teeth (Read it here if you missed it), but last night some friends and I were discussing Mitchell Lichtenstein's debut as a director and I had, what I think, is the best idea of all time. Of course, anyone who knows me, also knows that I have about 6 best ideas of all time per month - so maybe you shouldn't get too excited. Here it is:

Someone needs to make a porno version of Teeth.

It's kind of sick, but I know my girl Joanna Angel is up for it after seeing Re-Penetrator. I think there's a chance for a lot of good laughs, interesting social commentary, and a 2009 AVN nomination for most outrageous sex scene.

Make it happen, industry friends.

Reinventing Games We Used to Play

Welcome to Friday people. Sorry about the lack of updates yesterday. Construction fumes forced us out of the office early, so no time for posting. Not that I'm complaining - I never complain when daytime tv is involved, especially The Golden Girls. Please, who doesn't love Sophia??

Anyway, we are back. Yesterday I found these few links to stuff that totally reminded me of games that we used to play as kids, but totally updated. and not for kids...

I'm sure I'll find more. I'll be sure to update the list.


Playing Doctor:

I know I can't be the only one that thinks this story is really interesting. I guess not, because The Naughty American posted it in the first place. Anyway, this guy posts on NYC Craigslist bascially offering medical role playing - a doctor looking for patients - and he gets a ton of women to come to his home office for appointments. I know, it doesn't sound all that unique, but The Naughty American does a much better job reporting on it here. (via thenaughtyamerican.com)


I'll Show You Mine If You Show Me Yours:

The Salt Lake City Tribune reports that a group of junior high schoolers were taking cell phone pics of their junk and sending them to their friends. Kind of a 2.0 version of the delightfully risque mine for yours game. How innovative of them! Unfortuantely for them, someone's parent found the pix and got the school AND the police involved. Grounded! No porno pic privledges for one month!

I know I'm commiting henious stereotyping here, but I just can't hear reference to Utah without thinking about conservative religious thinking. I wonder how this would have panned out in New York City?

Mixtape Rewind

Sure, it's only Wednesday, but I'm feelin' the need for a little pick-me-up to get past the mid-week mark.

Up this time is one of my favorite bands - The Gossip. Headed by the insanely sexy Beth Ditto, this hot indie trio mixes the soul of the south with indie rock stylings to offer up one hell of a good time. Plus, Beth Ditto is a fat queer activist with a loud mouth and a fashion sense to match. A girl after my own heart.

I can't seem to get this song (Standing In The Way Of Control) out of my head. Yeah, I'm sure this will help. It's a bit blurry, but I think that's how it's supposed to be. Anyway, enjoy.

Affective Ad Campaign (yes the correct use of affective)

Wow. Jezebel (my addiction of choice, if you can't tell) posted this British domestic violence ad earlier and I was totally blown away by it. What a way to get a point across.




(AdGabber via Jezebel)

While this ad is totally effective in getting you to think aobut domestic violence, I wonder if it comes across a little bit as placing the blame on abused women for making up excuses for their injuries. Any opinions?

Blue Monday Sucks

So, apparently today is Blue Monday, the most depressing day of the year. It's also Martin Luther King Jr. Day, but from what I gather, the two are not related. Good, cause that would be kinda messed up. And tomorrow is the 35th anniversary of Roe v. Wade. Busy week, huh.

- Jezebel put up a interesting post earlier linking the three together, which sounds like it could be strange, but totally makes sense once you read it. It's all about Alveda King (MLK Jr.'s niece) and her anti-abortion stance. Check it out. (via jezebel.com)

- And speaking of it being MLK Jr. Day and race politics, BlackVoices.com just blogged about a new book, Money Shot: The Wild Nights and Lonely Days Inside the Black Porn Industry, that takes a look at the racial dynamics within the adult industry. A definite wishlist add. (via blackvoices.com)

- Blue monday theme reinstated: It feels like a sad day for me when women are injecting collagen INTO THIER G-SPOTS! Now, I haven't done any research into this surgery or even heard of it before, but just on first glance alone, holy crap does that seem like a bad idea. Even just shoving a needle up your cooch at all really. (via thenaughtyamerican.com)

while not all the links are mopey, let's just end on a good note anyway. What do you guys say?

Because it is ungodly cold where I am. enjoy.

Sometimes I miss Philly. Usually it's when I want Sushi or am craving calamari and a pint from North 3rd. Today's pick comes from a band that personifies the city of Brotherly Love for me, The Roots.

Cuddling Porn

I've only seen a handful of Viv Thomas movies, but if Art of Sex is anything like Butterfly, this is one to check out once it's released.

Here's what the fine folks at Fleshbot had to say about it:

Perhaps better knows for his all-girl raunchfests like "Sex with Peaches" and "Tales of the Clit", Euro porn maestro Viv Thomas turns to exploring an (even more) kinder, gentler brand of smut with "The Art Of Sex", a stab at explicit couples' porn if there ever was one: it's described as "(a) collection of scenes stripped of pretension and style, it is untreated, unscripted, and simply presents real sex, captured in all its beauty."

Joanna Angel: Airing Her Dirty Laundry

I have no idea why alt porn star and co-founder of Burning Angel, Joanna Angel, is writing about doing her laundry. I can't even begin to think of a coherent transition to talking about dirty clothes... well, I can actually, especially for a porn star, but really, not the point.

I’m great at laundry, but I wasn’t born a laundress. It’s a learned skill.

I’m a big believer in the importance of proper spin speeds.I never did any laundry as a kid. My mother did it all for me. In fact, when I was in college, I’d save up my laundry for two months and bring it all home to her. But then I started dating a girl who did my laundry and she taught me the basics.

Doing laundry is very zen. It’s a very big process, but one that pays big dividends. I was able to convince my current boyfriend to date me because I started doing his laundry.
It would come out so amazingly soft and bouncy that it made a guy who said didn’t want a girlfriend to decide that, maybe, he did.

Find out all about the fabric softner here. (via thenaughtyamerican.com)

Hmmm, and I always though that doing laundry was just a pain in the ass. As relaxing as Jonanna makes it sound, I still refuse to sort sort aything! I'm just not that hot.

Starburst

First let me say, I have many toys and when I’m purchasing more, I tend to go for the same style. I’m not sure what it is. I guess it’s because I know what works and what does not. Why test the waters with such an important issue?

I’m happy to say that I have the fortunate opportunity to test and write a review about a new toy. I got the package in the mail and didn’t know what to expect. Once opened, I thought, ‘well, that’s different than what I have.’ It’s a Starburst from VIBRATEX. I said out loud, “It probably won’t work.” I set myself up for a letdown. Therefore, I waited about a week and a half before I even took it out of the clear box. It sat there upside down on my dresser, just waiting for me to make the move.

Finally I just bit the bullet and said, ‘why not. It’s closer right now than all my other toys, which are tucked far away under the bed.’

First, I turned the massager on and it was quite loud. However, once things got heated, I didn’t even hear the noise anymore. I was in la la land. The length of the massager is longer than my other massagers, therefore allowing more up and down stimulating without leaving the surface of my hot spots.

Next there is a fringed 100% Elastomer Sleeve Tickler, which sent me over the edge. I had never even thought of getting something like a tickler. I thought they looked kind of strange. I didn’t know the additional stimulation that you receive with it. Now with my other toys, I’m thinking of things that I can attach to them that can give me that same feel. My other toys are not waterproof as this is, which means my time will not be shared equally among my toy friends.

Let me try to explain the feeling; once your juices are flowing, or you get out the special sauce, the tickler moves very easily up and down from top to bottom, causing an almost overwhelming feeling on your clit. Once you get to that mind-blowing feeling, you can turn the massager to a horizontal position and there is a cup-like tip that can sit right on your clit and that does not over stimulate. This creates a very minimal suction feel. It can sit and vibrate there for a few seconds - just long enough to allow you to catch your breath. Then you can start the up and down motion again.

The feeling for me was so new and erotic that I didn’t want to allow myself to let it end. So, I kept going back and forth with the up and down, then just resting with the cup and then up and down. This easily went on for about ten minutes. When my fun came to an end, it was exhausting. I was literally breathless. I just lay there for quite a few minutes with a smile on my puzzled face. I started thinking, ‘I can’t believe I never went down this route before.’ My head felt like there was cotton in it and my ears were kind of ringing. It lasted for about five minutes and then I remember waking up with my new favorite toy on the floor beside my bed. Damn it, off to work!

The greatest part of this is that tonight I get to try out the other attachment. It’s got longer feelers on it and I’m very excited! The ONLY negative things I can say about this masterpiece is that it is a bit loud and there are only two speeds, on and off. However, once ON, watch out!

Pucker Up, Tristan

Congratulations are in order for sex education goddess/director/anal queen Tristan Taormino. This week marks the 200th column of Pucker Up, her sex & sexuality column for the Village Voice. And 200 is seriously nothing to sneeze at - she's been writing this column since 1999!

Here is what AVN says:

Village Voice Media has published the 200th installment of Tristan Taormino’s “Pucker Up” and is now syndicating the sex column to LA Weekly, SF Weekly and Seattle Weekly.

"Pucker Up" first appeared in the Voice in 1999. Along with advice on anal sex, pubic hair grooming, water sports, BDSM and other aspects of sexuality, Taormino's column has covered the adult video industry with in-depth profiles of performers, producers and directors.

“It’s a dream job," Taormino said. "I get to eat, sleep, think, and write about my favorite topic: sex. It never gets boring!"

And here is a looksie at the exciting #200th column:

When I first met with a Voice editor in 1999 about starting this column, he had a concern: "What if you run out of things to talk about?" I assured him I wouldn't. And I haven't—this is my 200th column. For whatever reason, my 100th came and went without much fanfare—no orgy, no cake. No girl jumping out of a cake, even. This milestone deserves better, and I want to celebrate by looking back on where I've been, what I've done, and what's changed in the nine years since I began.

Read the whole column here. (villagevoice.com via AVN.com)

Oh Tristan, how I hope to follow in your footsteps. One day...

Vagina Couch or Split Open Hot Dog Couch: You Decide

Oh man, is it a slow news day or what?!? I did find this while trolling the Craig's List best of last night...

For Sale - beautiful pink "vagina couch" that I made in art school and no longer have space for. The couch is large: measures 5' 3" long, 3' 3" wide at the middle, and stands 2' 3" tall (and is heavy like a couch). The pics are from my portfolio and are several years old; as a result, the couch has some scuffmarks and stains around the bottom from being moved, but otherwise is in excellent shape. A professional upholsterer helped me build the couch, so it is also functional and durable as a piece of furniture. The couch must be picked up in Mendocino, a 3-hour drive north of SF. I am asking for $600 and a loving home! Call Willow at xxx-xxx-xxxx or reply to posting.

Listing is here.

I don't even know what to say. Oh art school, how you birth the most facsinating of creations. From the pics it kinda looks like a vulva, or a hotdog split own the middle in it's bun, dontcha think?

I wonder if there have been any takers?? It was only posted a few days ago...

It's a slow news day if you don't care about Britney Spears wanting to get knocked up again. Here are some links to pass the time.

- While I don't know if I like the underlying message that all girls are secretly girly and it just takes being prego to find your inner lady (this IS Marie Claire), I do like when women talk about having alternative pregnancy experiences.

(The best thing I've ever seen was a incredibly pregnant lesbian wearing a "Son of a Butch" tee-shirt. I love it!... but then again, I'm also a sucker for a good pun.)

- Two of my favorite blogs, Jezebel and Fleshbot (both of the incestuous Gawker family tree) teamed up to cover AVN this year. Here is a really freaking funny - and super detailed - multi part account of the expo/awards show from Jezebel's Tracie Egan. Those are only three - check out the rest over at Jezebel. If you haven't already assumed, these are NSFW.

- Alright, I'm obsessed with Jezebel, it's true - lay off me, would ya? Anyway, here is another post from J.B. that caught my eye. Yeah, yeah, screw that whole "thin is good" thing, but look at the hot pinkness of it! H-O-T. Oh, and speaking of Mac, check what happened to sex blogger Violet Blue today at Macworld. Clearly Steve Jobs better recognize.

And lastly, I just really like this:






Ok, signing off. Have a good one.

Hmm... Can Someone Say Overcompensation?

Well, it's about time that someone did something about this totally bizarre trend of affixing rubber testicles to a truck's trailer hitch. Yeah, that's what that picture is if you couldn't figure it out.

It's one thing to dangle fuzzy dice from a rear view mirror, but decorating a trailer hitch with a large pair of rubber testicles might be a bit much in Virginia.

State Del. Lionel Spruill introduced a bill Tuesday to ban displaying replicas of human genitalia on vehicles, calling it a safety issue because it could distract other drivers.

Under his measure, displaying the ornamentation on a motor vehicle would be a misdemeanor punishable by a maximum fine of $250.

Check out the whole story here. (cbsnews.com via jezebel.com)

While I don't know if there should be money, time and energy going into this venture in the way of a bill, per say, I can't say that I'll be disappointed to see this tacky trend shrivel up and die.

And no, I'm not just anti because I'm a card-carrying homo - I wouldn't want labia on my car either.

But seriously, am I the only one that sees this as total overcompensation??? I'm just sayin'...

Anyway, no need to thank me with fancy gifts or extravagant dinners - just subscribe, keep reading and tell your friends. Or better yet, get me stuff, then do all that other stuff anyway.

Just wanted to give the heads up. I'll post more later.

Miracle Massager

I’ve played with massager/wand vibes before and while they all deliver vibrations unparalleled to any other toy, some are definitely better than others. Because it feels like somebody actually took the time to think about some of the grievances voiced toward other massagers and do something about them, the Miracle Massager elicits a mind-blowing orgasm in about, oh, five seconds. Not all the complaints were addressed - but really, it’s a step in the right direction.

My favorite design change is the massager’s vibrating head, which is now contoured and on a spring. The new flexibility is perfect for added dexterity and helps it remain on the clit if there is any wiggling involved. Also, the curved ergonomic design makes it so much easier to get a good grip on the handle, as well as reach the power/speed switch, which really is important, because who wants the added work of straining or searching when you need to flip that switch.

And speaking of the switch… I have the same complaint as so many massager/wand users, that there are only two speeds. The low speed is a bit slow for me, but once I flick on the high speed, it doesn’t take long before I am looking for an even higher speed to get off. Not that the high speed isn’t crazy powerful, it’s just that I like an added jolt of speed when it’s go time. This is where a middle setting would come in great. I’m not sure if the Magic Wand Controller would work with this toy, but it works with the Hitachi Magic Wand to create a larger variety of speeds.

Other than lamenting over the limited speed control, the only other downside I can think of for this toy is volume - which can be a major concern for some. Holy crap is this vibe loud! Monster truck in your bedroom loud. I guess it comes with the territory when you’re dealing with plug-in wand/massager vibes, but I don’t live alone (or 20 miles from my closest neighbor, for that matter) and though I don’t care if my roommate knows I’m gettin’ busy, I’d rather not announce it by overpowering the TV volume. Ok, I’m exaggerating, but really, it’s loud.

Also, can’t forget to mention that the red and black casing is a nice touch and far more interesting (and hotter!) than plain old white. All in all, a very good toy that will remain at the top of my toychest.

Plus, it has attachments you can buy separately. Keep a lookout for the Miracle Massager Attachment review!

Experience a miracle of your own with the Miracle Massager!

Damn! She's SaSi!!

Wow. Ok, one more AVN post, but not really. More like a post about something freaking awesome that showcased at AVN. The SaSi (pronounced "sassy") is an intuative sex toy that - get this - remember what you like and can be programmed to do just that! How cool is that!!?!?

From their site:

A smooth, rounded head undulates under a thin, silky cover, creating a soft kneading sensation that can be customized by adjusting movement type, speed and vibration.

SaSi has two modes. In Natural Mode SaSi does what it is told. It comes pre-programmed with 5 movements, which are easily selected by navigating left or right.

In Learn Mode SaSi gradually morphs from one movement to another, trying new sensations. If you dislike a particular movement simply skip to the next one. SaSi will remember this and is less likely to use it again. If SaSi creates a sensation you really like, press the “don’t stop” button. SaSi will remember and use it again next time.

Just like a good partner, SaSi gives a different experience every time whilst still incorporating the movements you like best.

Don't get your panties in a ruffle (or wadded ball on the floor) quite yet - this fabulous vibe doesn't even hit stores until the spring.

check out the website for SaSi.

Check out an awesome video that Fleshbot has here.

Who's looking forward to spring?? (Aside from the fact that it is freaking snowing where I am. ew)

All this little bugger needs to do now is learn how to cuddle...

Goodbye AVN, Hello Macworld

Alright, so no more AVN posts for me. It's over. Done. The fork is stuck in. Lucky for all you show junkies (me included, of course) and San Franciscans, Macworld opened today. My nerdy little iHeart flutters a bit. tee hee.


One of our favorite bloggers, the fabulous Ms. Violet Blue, has saved the day again with an awesomely applicious guide to getting off at Macworld.

Yes, Macs are stylish. Yes, their multimedia capabilities mean that porn looks great and is easy to watch and create. And yes, if you think about sex in terms of Tiger vs. Windows you want the system that says "grrr" and not the one that, having just crashed, kneels at the foot of the bed and promises: "Baby, next time it'll be good. I promise. We don't need to use virus protection -- I got that all fixed, baby. Really, it won't be like last time. ..." And we don't need Steve Jobs telling us the way to share music files is to share an earbud with that someone sexy.

Read the whole guide here. Do it! Even if you aren't at Macworld - there is always next year. And you can never be too prepared.

AVN Ongoings... yep, still jealous

All these great personally stories and hilariously debaucherous activities continue to trickle in from all the lucky so and so's that got out to AVN last week. While I won't keep up a running commentary of everyone's personal shares, there are a few highlights that are worth mentioning.

- The awesome gals over at Jezebel did a really awesome interview with the absolutely wonderful anal sex queen/director Tristan Taormino.

"Porn has always been, and continues to be a huge issue for women. I don't know if the debate will ever be over," Tristan said, "But it's hard to hear from other feminists. They haven't seen my porn, they haven't seen Candida Royalle or Belladonna. So they don't see that porn is not one monolithic thing that's all bad."

Check out the whole interview here.

- Jezebel's sibling site Fleshbot was all over AVN as well. At one point they hit up the HotMovies booth and chatted with tranny film super star Buck Angel. Check out the video interview they did here.

Ok, that's all you get for now.

A Naughty Look at 2007

For everything you ever wanted to know about what happened in porn for chicks last year, check out this awesome 2007 retrospective from blogger Ms. Naughty.

Here are a few highlights:

It was actually a very busy year for women’s erotica, with heaps of movies released especially for straight women and continuing coverage in the press. Statistics and surveys showed that the number of women enjoying adult material is still growing - even if a lot of people still think that women don’t really like porn.

The 2007 AVN Awards in January saw Tristan Taormino’s Chemistry win the award for Best Gonzo, a history-making win as no other woman had won for gonzo films in the past. Dana Dane’s Erocktavision won Best All-Girl series and Buck Angel was Transsexual performer of the year. Beyond that it was all more of the same. The nominations for the 2008 awards are much more promising.

The 2nd Annual Feminist Porn Awards in June once again saw female-friendly adult films - and their makers - honoured. British director Anna Span, Peggy Comstock and Shine Louise Houston were guests and winners included Tristan Taormino (for Chemistry), Estelle Joseph (for City of Flesh 2) and Tony Comstock (for Matt and Khym). The awards received a number of press mentions in Canada and the US.

Audacia Ray’s Naked On The Internet arrived in May and received a lot of positive press. The book looks at women who work online in numerous sex-related sites and businesses. I was one of those interviewed, which was pretty cool, I have to say.

Read the whole retrospective here. (via msnaughty.com)

Seriously, if you are interested in porn at all, epecially for women - which I know you are since you are here - take a look at this.

Have a good weekend!

I'm not at AVN, but everyone else is.

Much to blog, little time, so let's get to it:

Still deep in the thicket of AVN and getting excited for the awards show tomorrow (Sat.) night, all the bloggers fingers are flying with updates from the frontlines.

- Our favorite Zaftig sex diva, April Flores, let fleshbot in on her very first AVN experience. (via fleshbot.com)

- Day two of the expo brings the question "What do women want?" in a highly attended seminar wth some of the female bigwigs of the industry. (via avn.com)

- The ladies of AbbyWinters.com pulled quite the little attention stunt at their booth when a gaggle of gals stripped off their clothes to reveal Abbywinters.com bras and panties and got down and PG-13 for a make out romp right on the fake grass by their table. Oh those crazy Aussies... how I love thee. (via fleshbot.com)

That's it for now, but I can imagine that there will be another AVN update later in the day.

Thanks!

In the Know

Ooooh! Here's a look at trends in the sex toy industry - what happened in '07 and what we can expect to see in the near future. And let me tell you, from what's here, it looks like 2008 is definitely headed in the right direction.


It's that time of year. Consumers are emptying out their bedside drawers and tossing out the cracked cock rings, limp dildos and rabbit vibes that no longer vibe; and they are ready and waiting for the next big thing. In an industry where "out with the old, in with the new" takes on a literal meaning, knowing ahead of time what sex toy trends to expect in the new year is like finding the answers to a final exam 30 minutes before it starts — it gets you way ahead of everyone else.

Sharing their predictions for 2008 toy trends are the masterminds behind some of 2007's hottest products in all sectors of the adult novelty market. The upcoming year has a lot in store for the industry, and everything from lubes to gags to sex gadgets are getting extreme makeovers to keep up with customer demand for high-end quality.

In 2007, the adult toy industry saw a significant move to make sex products mainstream and a part of everyday life. More attention was put on design and packaging than ever before; it appears that manufacturers realized that pink plastic hearts don't appeal to female consumers nearly as much as simple silver ribbon.

Alright 2008, I'm ready! Bring it on!

Who's At AVN?

For those not in the know, the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo - AEE, or usually referred to just as AVN (the AVN Awards Show - the Oscars of porn - capstone the expo) - starts up this week in Vegas and goes til the12th. For both fans and industry folks alike, AVN showcases pretty much everything new and hot that the sex industry has to offer, including a buttload of pornstar and director appearances.

So, who's at AVN? Apparently everyone and their mother. And they are all blogging about it. Here are a few good ones I've seen so far:

- HotMovies' own Intern John is pounding the porno pavement to bring us the blow by blow action. (nice pun!) Check out his adventures at the HotMovies the Blog.

- The Naughty American offers up their own Guide To The AVN Expo.

- Of course the folks over at AVN have their own coverage going on. Here is an article about the awesomely hot AbbyWinters.com's debut.

- Violet Blue blogs some AVN porn star approved tips on how to have sex like a pro.

Ok, that's enough for now, but I'll keep everyone posted on all the good stuff.

PLUS:

The Nominees for the 2008 GAYVN Awards were announced yesterday and include a few of our favorites.

Collin O'Neal's World of Men Series continued to win over both critics and fans this year garnering nominations for San Paolo, Edinburgh and Santo Domingo.

Tristan Knows Best

Our favorite anal queen (not to mention director, columnist and sexpert extraordinare) Tristan Taormino takes on 2007 with a list of the best and worst of sex in the quickly-becoming-a-memory last year.

Here are a few good ones:

Best Perversion of a Common Household Appliance:
British sex-toy company Love Honey began selling the Tingle Tip Electric Toothbrush Clitoral Stimulator, which turns an electric toothbrush into a vibrator for your lady parts. After the Love Honey site posted a picture of the Tingle Tip atop an actual Oral B toothbrush, Procter & Gamble lawyers sent a 66-page cease-and-desist letter warning them to take it down or else. Love Honey complied, but the company continues to sell the attachment, which could help Alabama vibrator-lovers slip under the radar.


Dumbest Anti-Porn Campaign:
Right-wing organization Morality in Media dedicated a week to the WRAP (White Ribbons Against Pornography) campaign, asking people to wear white ribbons to increase awareness about the horrors of pornography. Along with ribbons, communities were encouraged to produce programs like a sing-along for elementary-school children called "Protect Their Minds" and a garbage-can labeling campaign with "We CAN Keep Our Minds Clean" stickers. Other national organizations joined in—my favorite was Citizens for Families, which posted the following reminder on its website: "In Utah, White Ribbon week will be during the months of February or March, so as not to conflict with Green Ribbon week, Red Ribbon week, and Family Week."


Worst Legal Ruling:
By refusing to hear the appeal in the case of Sherri Williams v. Attorney General of Alabama, the Supreme Court basically upheld Alabama's ban on sex toys in the state, which prohibits the distribution of "any device designed or marketed as useful primarily for the stimulation of human genital organs for anything of pecuniary value." Williams has fought for Alabamans to be able to buy dildos, vibrators, and other toys for eight years, and says she will continue to: "My motto has been they are going to have to pry this vibrator from my cold, dead hand." Former gubernatorial candidate Loretta Nall is proposing that people send sex toys to Troy King, the state attorney general of Alabama, to encourage him not to waste money prosecuting sex-toy shops.

Check out the whole list here. (villagevoice.com via world-sex-news.com)

How can selling dildos and vibrators - oh, I'm sorry, "any device designed or marketed as useful primarily for the stimulation of human genital organs for anything of pecuniary value" - possibly be illegal anywhere? How messed up is that?!? So, if I'm reading the ban correctly, you can GIVE AWAY dildos, you just can't SELL them. Yes? Is that right? Wow. I give up on trying to understand.

Fantastic Erotic - The Best of Circlet Press 1992-2002

Circlet Press has defined erotic science fiction over the past decade, and while I’m not a big sci-fi reader outside of the classics, I was excited to check out this compilation of their favorite stories from 1992-2002.

The great thing about this genre is that the authors are praised for testing the boundaries of both sexuality and reality to the extreme. I was completely engrossed by stories of other creatures and worlds that I have never dreamt of and drawn into fantasies that I hadn’t fully realized.

I was thrilled to read Lia Block’s tender telling of a bitter coming of age love story in Milagro. Block’s young adult novels were some of the first I found as a young teen looking for signs of other lesbians. I devoured Milagro the same way I read through Weetzie Bat, although this time I didn’t feel the need to stash the novel under my bed.

I have to admit that some stories were just too far out there for me to relate to, but I appreciate the fact that they exist for someone else. Erotic Fantastic is an engaging read for anyone who enjoys a good story and, I imagine, a godsend for hardcore science-fiction fans.

Because I'm Tired of Talking About America

This is the first article I've ever seen about Israeli women's sexuality, which is both sad (that it took so long) and awesome (that it's happening at all) at the same time. Apparently it's an annual survey, so it's been around, but really, it's the first time I've seen anyone even mention that Israeli women are sexual beings. Nice.

Seventy-two percent of Israeli women experience an orgasm while having sex and know exactly where their 'G' spot and know how to derive enjoyment from it, according to a survey conducted by the women's magazine La'isha and released Monday.

The annual survey by Yediot Aharonot's weekly women's magazine revealed that the Israeli woman is liberal and daring (71.6%), knows what she wants in bed and says it (71%), enjoys her body and does not hide it under the blankets (87%).

The survey was conducted and analyzed by polling company Geocartography Knowledge Group and surveyed 14,840 Israeli women aged 18 and older.

According to the survey, a third of the women feel like having sex on a daily basis, while 45% are in the mood once or twice a week. Sixteen percent of the women said they lusted for sex once or twice a month, most of them over age 56, widows and single mothers. Almost 5% of women said they had no sexual urge at all.

Most Israeli women have positive feelings about their bodies, with almost half of them reporting they had sex with the lights are on regularly, while 40% of surveyed women said do so occasionally. A total of 23% found their bodies "very attractive," 36% defined their figures as "nice-looking' and 30% said that their bodies were "just fine," while only 1.3% said they hated how their bodies look.

Not An Action Figure, But Close

Alt sex queen Joanna Angel has become the latest porn star to cross market for the greater good with a new line of toys. Oh, and the line will be all pink and black - très alt.


Adult novelty manufacturer Topco Sales has announced the release of the Joanna Angel Burning Angel Toys series, carried under the Wildfire product line. The products will feature vibrators and bondage tape, as well as Joanna Angel ass mold and pussy mold.

The licensing agreement was inked with BurningAngel.com founder Joanna Angel in July.

"I'll never fuck myself, or my friends with anything else but a Joanna Angel sex toy from here on out," Angel said.

The line will feature a 7X Waterproof Bullet, 2" x 50' Bondage Tape, a 7.5" and a 5" waterproof vibe, and the Joanna Angel CyberSkin Ass Stroker and Pussy Stroker.

The strokers are manufactured from Topco’s trademarked CyberSkin product, and from other materials on FDA-approved lists that contain no PVC, latex or phthalates.

Sad thing is, when I read that they were making Joanna Angel toys, my mind automatically pictured an action figure...

Bitching and Moaning

Sure, you probably have some bitchy girls in your lives, but can you honestly say you know a real, cut-throat, insult-flinging Bitch? Pity, huh. Even the Mean Girls weren't even that mean... at least not Bitches to each other's faces, which is what makes it worthwile.

The Gaurdian's Julie Burchill asks 'where my bitches at?'

These days, bitching is low-fat, decaffeinated and kick-free. Worse than that, it is, above all, phoney. Though the great bitches of Hollywood were dressed to kill and magnificently shallow, there was something incredibly honest about them - whether they were real, like Bette Davis, or imaginary, like her character Margo Channing in All About Eve. In the old days, a bitch came on with all guns blazing, talons sharpened and a neon sign a mile wide above her head: No loyalty expected or given. She may have been a gold-digger, a back-stabber or a ball-breaker - but she was never a hypocrite. She got a tremendous kick from being a bitch and didn't care who knew it.

These days, though, women who might once have stood a chance of making decent bitches are whines, nags, snobs and scolds instead. When they diss another woman, they make a great show of doing it more in sorrow than in anger. So instead of coming across as fun-loving, red-blooded bitches, they seem like a very dreary blend of a tarot-card reader, a prim headmistress and a sob-sister agony-aunt. They are the Wahs; their ceaseless, bleating mantra is "Oh, I'm Worried About Her!"

Check out the whole article here. (guardian.co.uk via jezebel.com)

It's true. Nobody wants to get caught in a Bitch's cross-fire, but they sure are entertaining to watch and totally more interesting than some sniffling whiner.

Hot, Horny and Hard of Hearing

Yeah, most porn dialogue sucks. But not having the option to hear it sucks even more. Catering to disability is not exactly on the top of the industry's priorities, so the deaf community took matters into their own hands and created Deaf Bunny Productions, the first porn company for deaf people by deaf people.

Wired's Regina Lynn talked to founder Dino Capone about making deaf porn in a hearing world and the company's first DVD, "Naughty Deaf Roommates."

Here is a snippet of the full interview.

Wired News: Hearing and non-hearing partners can both understand the dialogue in Deaf Bunny productions, but what are the performers saying? Many hearing folks mute the sound on porn.

Dino Capone: Deaf Bunny's playmates have lots to say in the movies! First of all, deaf people value ASL (American Sign Language) and "deaf culture" as a key component to their identities. When deaf people get together, it's an opportunity to share, interact and express themselves, either sexually or platonically. The dialogue in our movies represents all the emotions, facial expressions and sexual gratification that the playmates are experiencing. We embrace the importance of allowing our viewers full access to everything that is said in our movies.

WN: You use deaf performers to create adult entertainment for an audience that includes deaf, hard of hearing (HH) and hearing people. What is unique about the performers' interaction that viewers won't find in mainstream porn?

Capone: Deaf Bunny uses deaf and HH actors and actresses primarily to connect with the majority of the viewers, who are deaf and HH. ASL is the common thread of the deaf community and the social behaviors -- such as eye contact, body language, facial expressions and vocals (deaf people are loud!) -- are unique to our culture. You won't find that in mainstream adult movies.

Fingers crossed that there isn't a way to sign a really bad fake orgasm.

Mixtape Rewind

Hey guys, it's Friday again, and you know what that means... I've let the Mixtape Rewind fall under the radar for a few weeks, but it's back and this time we've got a pick from The Porn Librarian. Jenny Owen Youngs doing an awesome cover of an oldie but goodie from '02. Let the mis-pronunciation of "here" commence... along with some giant polar bears and penguins. And though this is a porn blog, this has nothing to do with furries... we promise.



Nice. Here are a few snippets from her myspace page.

Jenny Owen Youngs is a feisty, hyper-sensitive, disease-free singer/songwriter/former girl scout who wants to be your friend. claiming influences from Beck to Jesus Christ Superstar to Britney Spears, her music is an echo of Erin Mckeown hopping into Jeff Buckley's Pontiac, cruising backwoods Alabama red dirt roads and singing along to The Sundays and Nick Drake. Her songs straddle the heart-wrenching and the tongue-in-cheek and say giddyup.

Her current goals include musically causing the hair on your arms to stand up, learning greek, and like fellow jersey boy Jon Bon, seeing a million faces and rocking them all.

Anyone who references Bon Jovi is a-ok in my book.

Have a good weekend.

Again with the iPhone

Just so I can feel even more bitter about not owning one, here is an addendum to yesterday's post about iPhones.

High-tech-toy manufacturer OhMiBod will unveil its new iPhone-compatible OhMiBod MP3-enabled vibrator next week at the Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas.

"Since the iPhone has the same music storage and playback capabilities as the iPod, we knew we had to make sure that all of our products functioned with the iPhone, too," said OhMiBod founder Suki. "When the iPhone is attached to your OhMiBod and you receive a call, OhMiBod will vibrate to the caller's voice, a feature that will truly revolutionize phone sex!"

Cyber Sex... maybe? Phone Sex?

Wow. And I thought Grand Theft Auto was risque. Pervy iPhone nerds have gone above and beyond with a new webapp designed specifically for the touch screen cell. rubMyClit is a fingers vs. screen game - basically a glorified battle with King Koopa (it's a Super Mario Brothers reference guys, stay with me) where you have to continuously hit your target over and over again to get any results. Hmm... doesn't sound that far off the truth really...

Anyway, check out the video the bloggers over at Fleshbot made to demonstrate the game for all of us poor folk with touch button phones and separate iPods. Thanks for all the finger strain guys! (via fleshbot.com)

Cuddling Back On!

Finally! An answer to one of the great cuddling mysteries - where can the extra arm go without cutting off circulation? I know it's not as lofty as, say, curing cancer or making fuel out of Big Mac wrappers, but it's enough to know we are going in the right direction. Good show!

Sleeping entwined with another is a novel concept, but there's always the problem of that extra arm. Where does one put it? Mehdi Mojtabvi's Love Mattress offers a simple solution for the chronic limp arm that often results from sleeping while wrapped in a prolonged embrace.

Mojtabvi has studied the embracing styles of couples while in bed and has confirmed what we all know -- that having your arm flattened under your partner's body for prolonged periods of cuddling isn't exactly comfortable. What's more, it may even prove detrimental to your health! Technically speaking, it puts abnormal pressure on the muscles, blood vessels and nerves, and over time can result in a condition termed "radial neuropathy," whose symptoms include weakness in wrist dorsiflexion and finger extension

Finally, an answer to this age-old predicament has arrived! Winner of the red dot design concept award in 2007, the idea of the Love Mattress is simple: A solid unit makes up the middle portion of the bed, with several adjoining strips of foam connected at either end. Between these slats one can drop their shoulder or arm, allowing for a much more comfortable sleeping position while remaining all snuggled up.

If this is any indication of what 2008 is going to look like. I am so in!
