Have you ever wondered what sex looks like through an MRI machine? Or maybe you’ve wondered what it looks like to relieve yourself or give birth through MRIs? Well thanks to this video from Vox of “cinematic MRIs”, you now can (NOTE that these images may be unsafe for work):
Daniel Genis’s essay for Deadspin about his ten years in prison may surprise some people. If any of you have contrary experiences, let us know in the comments:
… Read the restWhen I tell people that I recently finished serving a 10-year prison sentence for armed robbery, mostly in maximum-security facilities, I often feel a question lingering in the air. The moment I sense it, I try to respond to the awkward silence in some offhanded way, though it is hard to be blithe and whimsical when you’re telling people you were never raped in prison.
I can speak only for myself, but in my own time in the New York State system, I rarely saw or even heard about non-consensual sex between men. Perhaps I was just very lucky. Maybe I’d been incarcerated only in the “softer” corners of the penal system. Rape does happen, and all over any prison there are signs with a number to call to anonymously report it, which I always thought was less a matter of sodomy than of legal liability.

Ever heard the saying “less is more”? The “Bubble Porn” video is only as lurid as your preconceptions. It’s like that scene in The Empire Strikes Back where Luke is about to enter that spooky tree and asks what’s inside. Yoda replies, “Only what you take with you.”
Well, I suspect that most of us will be taking a good bit of redtube into this particular tree.
An aside – remember when you were a kid and actually had to hunt for pornography? Kids these days will never know the thrill of uncovering “wood porn“, unless it’s in a discarded thumb drive. (Hint: Leave it the hell alone.)

Police who traced a video camera discovered in a men’s bathroom to its owner discovered he was one of their own… and he was inviting “straight” men to his home to receive oral sex from the other side of the barrier. The “straight” men apparently had “no idea” that there was a man on the other side of the glory hole. Really?

Chesterfield Police Officer David Cerna, 33, faces a felony charge of invasion of privacy, according to Chesterfield Police Chief Ray Johnson. Cerna set up a camera in a vent in a Mobil on the Run location, where it recorded men using the facilities, Johnson said during a press conference.
A media investigation tipped off the department that someone had been recording a men’s restroom, Johnson said.
I think that this guy has watched way too many porn films. I’m surprised that he didn’t show up wearing a tool belt or carrying a pizza. Maybe there is something to that study about porn-watching and loss of grey matter.

… Read the restWednesday morning the women were having sex. They realized someone was watching.
“I had never seen this man before and he did not belong,” said Willis. “My initial reaction, I just got up as fast as possible and pushed him out of the room.”
Willis said before the intruder ran away he told her he’d heard them from the floor below and wanted to see what was happening. She believes he was trying to get in bed with them.
“I think he was definitely intent on joining, and becoming a part of it and placing himself in our position,” said Willis.

Be careful what you wish for, is what I’d say to these eggheads. From Pando Daily:
… Read the restSex robots are not as far away from reality as you might think. From butt clenching muscles to dancing humanoids, there’s enough developments in robotics, artificial intelligence, and human skin rendering that if put together, could make a fairly humanoid sexbot.
None such bots exist yet, aside from clunky primitive ones like TrueCompanion’s Roxxxy, but that hasn’t stopped a group of British academics from furiously debating the future implications of the sex robot industry.
Yes, a group of stodgy, mostly British scholars is contemplating the future of sex, specifically how technology might transform it. Damn does that sound more exciting than “Theorizing Modern Capitalism: Controversies and Interpretations” which is the kind of crap I studied in college.
Computer scientist David Levy in 2007 pioneered the discussion, with a book titled Love and Sex with Robots: The Evolution of Human-Robot Relationships.
Poor Jordy.
Something about this sets off my bullshit detector, but I’m no scientist. However, I do know that most guys watch porn or at least have at one time or another. It’s hard to find statistics without dredging up a bunch of crap from the usual purveyors of moral outrage, but what little I could find suggested between 70% and 77% of American men watch porn. (and I bet a healthy slice of the one’s who say then don’t are lying.)
Anyway, this reminds me of all of the anti-masturbation stuff people used to believe… Wait. Used to? Forgot about this.
… Read the restResearchers found less grey matter in the brains of men who watched large amounts of sexually explicit material, according to a new study.
The research, which appears in the journal JAMA Psychiatry, could not determine if porn actually caused the brain to shrink however, and the authors called for additional study on the topic.
For something that so many cultural conservatives obsess over, there’s surprisingly little agreement over what constitutes sodomy. As it turns out, if you and your partner have sex on state lines, you might be committing a crime depending on what side of the border you do what. (Want to be extra sure? Pick up a copy of The Thrifty Traveler’s Guide to Sodomy Across The Land: An Activity and Coloring Book at your nearest Stuckey’s roadside convenience store before you go. Try the pecan logs!)
Not sure why this is exploration of sodomy laws is at LiveScience, but hey, this is a great chance to drag out this clip from Hair – an album that everyone’s mom and dad had when I was a kid. (Hopefully it’s just old enough to be creepy and nonsensical to you millennials.)

Holy moly, check out this gallery of photos of daddies and daughters dressed for their purity balls…
Recently, [purity balls have started to] gain more attention, as a book has recently come out about the disturbing ritual. In short, in an effort to prevent their daughters from sleeping with anyone before marriage, the fathers are taking it upon themselves to safeguard the virginity of young girls — and it includes a creepy marriage portion, where the girls put their promise in writing, wear white dresses, and even exchange rings.
