There was a time in the U.S.’ not so recent past when presidential infidelity was left out of the media headlines. Though both Bobby and John F. Kennedy were rumored to have slept with Marilyn Monroe, it was treated as a Washington rumor and never delved into by the press. Several presidents before JFK’s time were rumored to have indulged in extramarital affairs but these were also ignored by the mainstream media of the day. In today’s era of political backbiting between parties, however, no stone is left unturned. From Bill Clinton’s oval office blowjob to Republican Larry King’s (not the talk show host Larry King) Oklahoma child prostitution ring, when someone steps out of marital or societal bounds in relation to sex, we usually get the full story and then some…unless the CIA is involved.

Sex and Politics: Why We Deserve To Know
Thursday, October 14th, 2010It’s All In A Name: What Your Penis Euphemism Says About You
Wednesday, October 6th, 2010
Don’t know what a euphemism is? That probably says something about you and it’s not exactly positive. For the rest of us, below is a list of common penis euphemisms and what they might say about you and your personality. Hey, whaddaya want? It’s no worse than the daily horoscope.
1: Wang, Cock, Shlong. Hardware, Governor, Knob: You’re a “meat and potatoes” salt-of-the-earth kind of guy who doesn’t mince words and is generally well rounded. You like action movies, beer and find a wide variety of women attractive but don’t appreciate a female figure that’s too skinny or too big. You won’t step out of the shower to piss but you will help an old lady across the street. You’re generally kind-hearted and respect others, especially elders. You have a favorite sports team in baseball, football and basketball and probably own a hat from each.
Of Wine, Women and Water Sports – Submission Fetishes and the Heterosexual Male
Wednesday, September 15th, 2010
What do a bottle of Montrachet 1978, a supermodel and a golden shower have in common? Most guys will never know the pleasure of any of them. And for the great majority, only two out of three are to be lamented. For a select few of us, two out of three still holds true but only because there’s not much to be attracted to when it comes to supermodels.
I don’t know when bony haunches and spindly frames became sexy outside because they sure as hell aren’t in my house, but I digress… This article is about submission fetishes, or rather, an examination of what drives men who appreciate them.
Water sports are a fringe fetish, but they’re really no different from several other fetishes in the same vein. Foot worship, queening (ass worship) and strap-on sex share the same basic underlying theme but with different methods of domination, submission and humiliation. Why some choose one fetish over another probably has more to do with the individual’s perception of what constitutes submission rather than the actual act.
More Than a Muppet
Wednesday, April 14th, 2010
Gonzo. While those of a *ahem* certain age will undoubtedly think of a certain blue-nosed puppet, most of today’s (of age) generation will instead think of a very popular porn variety. In gonzo porn, the cheesy dialogue and flimsy plots that adult videos of the 1970′s are infamous for are omitted entirely. Instead, the action begins right away, and doesn’t stop until the end of the movie! These are shot in a manner that usually has the male sex partner holding the camera and filming only their partner; a method most commonly called “point of view” shooting, or POV for short.
Blue Streak
Saturday, March 20th, 2010
Adult films have been called “Blue Movies” almost as long as they’ve been around, but do you know why? Apparently, the origin of the phrase is something of a mystery, but there are a few educated guesses that may shed light on this colorful phrase.
In 1781, in a historical book about Connecticut, a man named (Reverend) Samuel Peters noted that the harsh puritanical law often called for use of force or brutality to ensure that rulebreakers were not merely chastised, but served as an example to all. In his book, the Reverend calls these “blue laws”, with blue meaning bloody in the parlance of the times. Today, we use the phrase blue laws to describe any laws or rules that seem overly restrictive or puritanical, such as requiring businesses (notably liquor-serving establishments) to close early on Sunday, for Sunday’s sake.
