To Blow or Not to Blow...
Sexual understanding is not a cut-and-dried thing. This short essay on why a woman doesn’t give blowjobs is fascinating because it will be read in so many different ways. As Alison Stevenson notes, some will read it as an anti-cock diatribe. Some will think of her as damaged by past unsatisfying sexual experiences. Others will just brush her concerns off and say, “Well, she just hasn’t found the right dick to eat.” Personally, I just think she’s thought about it, thought about her past, her interests, and her own ability to achieve sexual satisfaction before she determined that a penis in her mouth just doesn’t interest her. More people need to realize this sort of self-actualization in their sex lives.
Porn to Avoid
What happens when you mix porn and politics? OK, maybe not politics, but porn and personal vendettas that may or may not be justified, but certainly do come across as a screeching ‘look at me!’ occurrence? This, it seems, is what you’re going to get when you take a gander at the latest celebrity sex tape from Randy Quaid. For the past few years, Quaid has popped up now and again with bizarre behavior and rants - particularly against Rupert Murdoch. Not surprisingly, he included shots at Murdoch in his sex tape with his wife. I couldn’t imagine watching this. Fortunately, you don’t have to, either. The very brave Tracy Clark-Flory has watched and recapped the bearded bellyacher for us.
Let’s Just ... No
While I don’t want to watch Randy Quaid fuck, I do very much enjoy porn. Really, I can’t imagine my life without it. So imagine my horror, that quickly turned to tears of laughter, upon discovering this hilarious video imagining Life Without Porn. The VHS look of it is particularly awesome.Could strip clubs ever disappear? Sure, porn is a pretty ubiquitous part of home life, but are people forgoing live erotic entertainment for other forms or fun? While it seems unthinkable for someone who couldn’t wait to get to a club (though of course did so only as a legal adult :)), it seems others are doing just that. Over the past decade, clubs across Canada have been closing their doors. In Toronto alone, there used to be 63 strip clubs. Now, there are only 14! Tim Lambrinos of the Adult Entertainment Association of Canada notes that the perception of clubs as seedy and a hotbed of crime could be a contributing factor. However, he also concedes that the key demographic for these venues, young males, might be more interested in electronics. I’m not quite sure he’s as plugged in as he should be, though, in discussing these trends. Game Boys are a bit of an antiquated reference. However, the point is made.
