In the hours after his untimely death last week, many of Christopher Hitchens' most witty aphorisms went viral. One, which landed on my Facebook wall, declared that ‎"the four most overrated things in life are champagne, lobster, anal sex, and picnics." My friends immediately began a thread to discuss which of these he got right, and which he got wrong. Soon, it devolved into an intense discussion of the third item on Hitch's list of overpraised pleasures. Struck by the passionate debate about butt sex that broke out on my wall, I ran a small Facebook survey on the subject and received some 120 responses. More »

Last week, in response to a widely-publicized survey, I cleared up some common misconceptions about dude-in-dude Gay Butt Sex. (Heretofore referred to as GBS.) That was just the tip of the brown iceberg. Today we're going to delve into some other aspects of the carnal canon. More »

I currently field so many questions about my butt that I feel like I'm its tour guide (we're walking, we're walking, to the right you have the prostate... don't touch it! Photos only!) and I have family members who don't know how my boyfriend and I met, but turn into Sam I Am on the subject of gay buttsex, popping up out of nowhere with incessant, inappropriate questions: Do you do it without lube? How does a dick fit into that tube? You really put it right in there? How often do you wash your underwear? More »

When the chips are down and all the prayers to God to win the election and protect you from witchcraft haven't worked, everyone knows it's time to call in the big guns: the forces of evil. And, if they're too busy helping the Axis of Evil get nukes and shit, well, then you can always call in the forces of pettiness and covert racism, as they've been helpful in many an election here in the States. But Swampland's Ana Marie Cox and I will insist on, at a minimum, throwing rhetorical spitballs at the hordes and making assfucking jokes as the sky is falling, so there's that, at least... after the jump.

Since the dynamics within straight relationships have shifted relatively recently, we're kinda confused about how we're supposed to behave, particularly when it comes to gender roles. After we posted about this week's episode of Mad Men — in which Don Draper has a sexually charged dominance scene with one woman — and reading the comment thread, it became clear that some people are just as uncomfortable with women being sexually submissive as people once felt about women being sexually dominant. But maybe we should look to gay men for our cues. There's something sort of admirable about gay male couples. Not that they're out and proud — I mean, that's great, obviously — but that there's an acceptance about the fluidity of the roles each person is allowed to play in a relationship and an innate understanding about sexual expectations that doesn't always exist in heterosexual coupling. Maybe it's the fact that they are so used to not being the "norm" that they don't give a fuck about conforming to what's expected of "men." Either way, I think we could stand to learn a thing or two from them. More »

This is one of two French AIDS-prevention advertisements to win a Bronze medal at the Cannes International Advertising Festival (click the picture to see this and the one with a dude writ, um, large). The tag line: "Explore. Just protect yourself." Although the tongues in the female version are non-gender specific, the advertisement for a man contains a female face that looks like a blow-up doll, several obviously feminine mouths and genitalia that looks way more like a pocket pussy than a woman being as it lacks legs (or hair) for context, but no obvious visual references to anal sex (or non-gendered assholes). I guess a man's exploring is supposed to be limited to women, but since all women are supposedly a little bi and it's less "gross," the tongues don't have to obviously be dudes'. Anyway, we're mostly trying to figure if the pictures are erotic or weird, or both. Vive la France! [Salon] More »

There's piece over on CBS News, via WebMD, that claims to tell men five things they didn't know about their penises. The info provided is basically useless old news (Your Penis Does Have a Mind of Its Own, Your Penis May Be a 'Grower' or a 'Show-er'). The problem? It was written by a man.

Village Voice columnist, author, adult film director, anal sex guru, and all-around sex educator Tristan Taormino is one of the most quotable women I've ever met in my life. When I interviewed her on Friday morning in Vivid Entertainment's booth at the Adult Entertainment Expo, I was having a hell of a time — in my hung-over condition, mind you — trying to write as fast as she talked. Seriously, I haven't worked my hand that hard since, well actually, since I got home last night and watched Chemistry 3, the latest installment of her reality DVD series that's sort of an experiment in pornography. Tristan puts six porn stars in a house for 36 hours, with no script, shooting schedule or scene requirements, and lets the sex happen naturally, allowing the performers to establish their own boundaries (or lack thereof). It's concepts like this that has Tristan challenging the existing order of things in the adult industry, as well as challenging typically non-porn watching audiences to open their minds to something they hadn't realized they could enjoy. Oh, and also, she's kuh-raaazy smart. More »

You probably gave a blow job or got eaten out before you ever had vaginal intercourse (assuming you're straight, natch). So if you did everything except letting the boy put his Linus in your Snoopy, did you consider yourself a virgin? A study published in the Journal of Adolescent Health found that 70% of kids age 12 - 16 believe that oral sex doesn't count, and 16% believe that anal doesn't either. It's interesting because, like, what really is sex? 'Cause the whole "penis in the vagina" thing seems, I don't know, too biblical or something. Besides, if that's the real definition, then that means that pretty much every gay person—unless they had a "bisexual" transition period—is still a virgin. More »

When Pillhead IM'd me a couple of days ago to ask for a comment for her fabulous piece (no pun intended), it got me thinking about that idiot guy and his fascination/obsession with anal sex. To a degree, no matter how much women will dish on vaginal intercourse and cunnilingus, there are very few of women that are willing to go on record about what they like about (and how to have fulfilling) anal sex. Which is why, when I need to get information on the subject, I have to either get my girlfriends really, really drunk or ask a gay friend — which always goes ever so well. Their thoughts, and a poll, are after the jump. More »
