Rep. Andy Ogles (R-TN) has called on a House committee to investigate the NFL and NBC for allowing Bad Bunny’s halftime show. In Ogles’ words, “Children were forced to endure explicit displays of gay sexual acts, women gyrating provocatively, and Bad Bunny shamelessly grabbing his crotch while dry-humping the air. And if that weren’t outrageous […]
AI-Generated Women Sexier Than the Real Thing
In a fascinating study just published in the Archives of Sexual Behavior, a team of Czech researchers tested how 604 female-attracted adult Czech men and 45 female-attracted women responded to still photos of naked women (real, surgically enhanced, AI-generated, CGI-generated, high-end sex doll, and hentai). All groups, male and female, young and old, found the […]
Sexual Harassment at the Museum of Sex
One might think that a gig at New York’s Museum of Sex would equate to a highly sexualized environment full of hijinks from libidinous co-workers. That fantasy has not prevented employees from suing for sexual harassment, as Travis White recently did. One of his colleagues, a self-designated “big girl” who goes by the name Coquette […]

Now Streaming: You Without Your Consent!
In this rather astonishing story, Eric (an alias), a fan of “spy-cam porn” for its authentic vibes, stumbles across a sex clip of him and his wife that he did not know existed. The video was surreptitiously recorded three weeks prior at a hotel in Shenzhen, southern China, where Eric and his wife had stayed. […]
(Small) Court Victories for LGBTQ in Some Unexpected Places
In a significant development, The Philippines, a conservative Catholic country which does not recognize same-sex marriage or even allow divorce, has seen a partial victory for same-sex couples thanks to its Supreme Court. It ruled that they may co-own property, but only if they live together and both contributed to its purchase. The ruling came […]
From Stonewall to Disney: Diminishing Queer Visibility
The trans community isn’t the only cohort of the wider LGBTQ+ community seeing civil rights being pulled away. The ACLU maintains a map tracking attacks on LGBTQ right in US state legislatures. Two such bills in the Tennessee legislature are seeking to delegitimize gay marriage and eliminate employment discrimination protections. As if to illustrate the […]
Bi-partisan Consensus: Sex Offenders Better Off Dead
A bill to impose the death penalty in child sex abuse cases passed the Alabama State Senate by a resounding bi-partisan vote of 33-1, and Gov. Kay Ivey has indicated she will sign it.
