Top Headlines

A Woman's Touch
Not all porn is made equally, or rather, some porn is more equal than others. In "The Smart Girl's Guide to Porn," local sex-educator Violet Blue argues that women are interested in finding good porn. Mainstream porn is often "sexual disinformation," she writes. That's where porn made for women comes in.

Toys in Babeland
If there is one bond that men and women share, it's sexual fantasies-which, more often that not, include remakes of their favorite porn scenes. And yeah, we may never get down with Tommy Gunn, Micah Moore, or Marilyn Chambers (for fans of old school porn), but when the time comes to strip down and turn off the lights, why not try to fulfill our pornographic fantasies? And it can be done with two words: sex toys.

The Thrill of the Old
When caught with their pants down, connoisseurs of erotica usually turn to the old standby "I get it for the articles," but there's a much easier way to legitimize one's libido: make like a Classics major and turn to the Ancients.

Special Issue
My darling co-editor, Louis, advocates the academic study of erotic imagery. I totally agree. However, we can't forget that porn is good for the study of fun, sexy time. Just keep in mind that not all orgasms are created equal. Pornstars are plenty practiced at climaxing on cue and what "works" for them might not work for anyone else.
