Carmen Soo's dress is nothing less than fabulous, no question about it. Perfectly accessorized also.
I just don't like not recognizing Katherine McPhee. I love her dress. I hope she goes back to brunette soon, though.
Fit issues notwithstanding, Juliana's dress is rockin too. So much so that I almost didn't notice she'd accessorized with black and gold, which looks ok. But just so. I would have been fab paired with just gold or white and gold accessories. The black is just too much for the softness of her hairdo and dress.
My inner Edna Mode screamed "too much of it dahling!" at #11.
Sadie, that was comedy gold! Its hard to pick a favorite, but of all the comments I think #11 wins. But, then I remember #4 and...damn its ALL hilarious!
Seriously on the Prince thing. I once wanted to listen to "When Doves Cry" and could find NOTHING. Me, queen of finding nearly anything online- could not locate anything of his on the Interwebs.
While it sucks for people who use Youtube and whatnot in lieu of putting on a CD, you gotta admit that he seriously knows what he's doing when it comes to nixing the piracy of his work. #porn
@vitajex: Second that. Razor bumps, implant scars, cigarette wrinkles, hemorrhoids, bad dye jobs, faded tattoos... Do not want, do not want in HD. #porn
I adore Current and Vanguard in particular, but I skipped this episode because I've seen various incarnations of the subject a zillion times. I get it. Pr0n. People are into it. OKAY. #porn
Sometimes I feel like the only person on earth who doesn't care about porn. Actually, I actively dislike it. As far as I can tell, the only thing porn has done for my life is make every guy I've dated think I'd like a facial and pressure me for anal. Ugh. It's annoying and has created a culture that acts like you're lame if you're not turned on by other people fucking. #porn
@EarlyGrey: Hearted for that! Yeah, it's strange. I've dated guys who grew up pre-internet porn and known many who grew up in the midst of it, and the difference is startling. All of the younger guys have higher expectations of women loving anal sex and giving "performances" rather than being truly turned on by the intimacy.
(But actually, you know, we're just Prudey McPrudersons for not liking porn, even though we happen to love sex and would just rather be doing it ourselves rather than watching random strangers pretend to be turned on!) #porn
@smizmar: Based on my own experience, I can see how this would be true. My ex, in his mid-20's, wanted our sex life to be exactly like porn. EXACTLY. And while I do find some of that fun and exciting, it was tiresome to live up to that every. single. time.
But the guy I dated after him, who was in his mid-30's, was not like that AT ALL. It was more about connection for him.
This is just anecdotal evidence, but when I was with my ex, I knew that porn had a major influence on how he viewed me and our sex life. I was mainly just an object to fuck. He was clearly not a keeper. #porn
@EarlyGrey: Thank you so much for this. Exactly what you said regarding all the pressures. I find most porn to be creepy and women look like they're having the worst time. And don't forget the pressure to be hairless EVERYWHERE (the full brazilian, plus butt-crack). #porn
Interestingly, the porn industry is in the same boat as the music industry
I'm glad you said something about this, Latoya. I've noticed that autotune has been way overused in recently made professionally produced fuckfests. And I really think that it detracts from the quality of the product, and the spirit of pornography. #porn
@morninggloria: Please. Porn today is so manufactured and corporate. That's why I only watch indie porn stars. Otherwise known as my neighbors who don't draw their curtains before getting it on. #porn
@Justine: Licks your clit, of course! I'm too lazy to look it up, but there's a couple of videos on Behindkink.com where they show Tomcat talking about the chainsaw and him and Peter Acworth demonstrating its use while clothed. And LoveHoney just released "Sqweel", a smaller, compact toy with the same principle of "tongues" rotating and "licking" you.
Neither seem like they'd come close to oral sex for me, but you've got to give 'em props for creativity. #porn
Whatever Kink.com is doing to prevent pirating they're doing a great job. Their shit is awesome but really expensive. And the best you can get from free sites is the previews for scenes they themselves put on their own site. #porn
@Snowbunny: I've found some of their videos in their entirety before, but the sound and the video were not synched up, which threw off my enjoyment. #porn
@Snowbunny: I had a membership, and then when I decided to call it off to save some money, they knocked ten bucks off my monthly fee. Argh, those brilliant money-grubbing smut-peddlers! How did they know?! #porn
@Snowbunny: Seriously. I once found a complete Bound Gods video (Dante + Nick!) on Empflix, watched it, was hooked. By the time I had finished watching it and went to watch it again, it had been removed, but I was so impressed with their work that I went ahead and bought a subscription to the site (that went on for about half a year, until it finally drained all my porno funds). #porn
I think that violence has kind of a weird, tenuous relationship with sex, and it's fashion's favorite transgression.
I find some imagery more shocking than others, but I tend to have a more loose relationship with this sort of thing, that I don't try to justify or explain.
Images #8-10 I remember seeing recently, and I didn't really gather than she was dead. The more straight forward shots like #1-3 are, quite simply, dumb. I always hated that Jimmy Choo advert. It's obvious to the point of caricature, which makes it even more offensive. #7 is pretty bothersome. #11 is just fucking sexy. #deadmodels
@Penny: Have you seen Spike Jonze's music video for Kanye West's Flashing Lights? I'm linking to it here (not embedding) because it's extremely NSFW but I think it is one of the best examples of pop culture and fashion's combination of sex and fashion. The video has disturbed me ever since I have seen it.
@kellybones: Had to watch that! I actually really don't like West, I think he's pretty talentless. I need to sit on that video for a bit. Lots to soak in, especially how she stripped down before killing him, further solidifying the death-violence-sex thing. #deadmodels

Like porn?
"the industry is moving toward making porn a full sensory experience"
Like actual sex? #porn
