SUBSPACE HEAVY METAL FETISH BALL Read More“In the particular case of Christy Mack, the victim blaming is taking on an even more defamatory dimension because Mack, as headlines around the web are sure to remind you, is an adult film actress. In virtually every publication from TIME to TMZ she is introduced by the same four words: “porn star Christy Mack.” You might think “porn star” is her first name and not her profession.” Christy Mack’s assault was reprehensible, the act of a sick and twisted individual. That media fixates on her profession is fuel for more victim-blaming. Of course, her work can be noted, but the …
Christy Mack, PERSON, Beaten—Consider Donating Read MoreLast night’s Sex City was a ride! A damn fine ride! It was a pleasure to speak with each of Kelly Shibari, Epiphora and Shane Allison. I really enjoy shows that bring together a mix of topics and personalities. We talked Plus Size porn with Kelly, sex toy reviewing with Epiphora and cop erotica with Shane! That might seem really random but ultimately, I took something important away from the show. Sure, we’ve all got our niche and we’ve all got our personal interests when it comes to sex. These differentiate us and make us all uniquely awesome. But at …

Karaoke Thursday, Fetish Friday, Sexhibition Carnival Saturday & Spit Party Monday Read MoreI normally save my questions for the #dailysexquestion, but with the news of Robin Williams’ passing, I wonder about celebrity, sex and death. Fans are currently mourning the loss of a comedy icon and gifted actor. Robin Williams entertained the world for decades. He performed for us, and if the popular press is to be believed (in this time of significant attention), his performances were his own lifeblood. But this makes me wonder. Will there ever be a time when porn and sex-related performers will be as revered? Will they be mourned as publicly, lauded and loved? Will the popular …
