I love Jim Skin. His website is a true original, he managed to get a significant mention in ‘Knocked Up’ without paying a dime and yes, he really does know all that stuff about on-screen nudity off the top of his head. Unfortunately Mr. Skin isn’t perfect, his site costs money and doesn’t cover foreign film with the focus it lavishes on Canadian blonde’s pretending to be Californian blonde’s pretending screaming with their shirt off is ‘the method’.
Recapped covers what Mr. Skin misses. It’s a blog whose purpose is to drive interest in the paysite, Capped, but which stands erect as a decent read and content source in itself. Mining French, Spanish, German and world cinema as well as television for sex and nudity it’s capable of turning readers on to media worth watching for reasons other than nudity, as well as stuff to endure for a glimpse of classically trained booty. You can actually pleasure both your brains simultaneously. If you’re a stranger to the charms of Emmanuelle Beart and Laetitia Casta your junk will thank you for the heads-up.
The Daily Tang, pornos wannabe Rocketboom, is on vacation but has posted a blooper-reel to tide fans over till September 20th. Like all decent blooper reels it’s more interesting than normal programming because it peels back the pretence and production values designed to stop us from knowing what the people we’re watching are really like.
So what’s the, Veronika Raquel, host of The Daily Tang really like? I think it’s safe to say she’s not much into that big-city book-learning…
The best of this week’s blogs by the bloggers who blog them.
This Week’s Picks Cuffed
“She could see that he had something concealed in his other hand, but couldn’t quite tell whether it would be an instrument of torture or pleasure.”
Lunch Hour
“He’s very good, but I notice the almost imperceptible start as he notices what’s going on.”
About size
“But if we’re going to start talking about penis size, then it is only fair to talk about vagina size.”
The only card game I’m any good at is ‘Remember the code’ which you play with the card the bank gives you in those machines they dot around the place. Unfortunately my bank doesn’t offer much more in the way of card designs that ‘Field’ and ‘Birds standing in water’ whereas playing cards have a long tradition of horny pictures to make sitting in a darkened room full of men all night seem more hetrosexual.
Quirk Books new title ‘Stacked Decks‘ traces the history of sexy playing cards by putting little bits of text with great big pictures of naked ladies. It’s an interesting glimpse at how porn was legitamized before HBO ‘Documentaries’ and ideal for fans of cards, pin-ups or old-time style masturbation.
When ‘Comdex’ was the world’s largest trade-show, a brave storage exhibitor shocked - SHOCKED! - Vegas by decorating their stand with women dressed in rubber catsuits. They were the exact shade of blue as the booth they were in, meaning a number of people only realized they were there when they lent against them and traded their floppy for a hard-drive. The following year provocative outfits were banned and a couple of years after that Comdex was an ex-show.
In Russia no such qualms prevent magazines from selling their car magazine via topless body-painted spokes-models. If you don’t buy a subscription immediately they start the faux-lezzy moves. Luckily for us cameras were present.
As a sometime ad guy I have a passion for advertising which gets things right without trying. For all the time spent trying to be clever, being able to say something blindingly obvious, true, and previously unsaid, almost always makes you rich.
JBS Underwear have worked out that men,even if those men are being sold underwear, prefer looking at women than men.
JBS Underwear have worked out that men,even if those men are being sold underwear, prefer looking at women than men. For example, much as I respect the acting talents of Djimon Hounsou, I’d rather not have to examine his nuggets when shopping for Calvin Klein undercrackers. Pushing this idea to its logical, and ridiculous, extreme has produced a series of ads which are sexy, effective and memorable.
I’m not sure if women ever spend time sniffing lovingly at skids but the idea has a certain rustic appeal. This is obviously aided by images of perfect women dressed as fetish dolls and barely clothed. All evidence of yet more creative genius.
By way of contrast, and to prove the point, take a look at this comparison of photo-shoots on ‘Officially best blog on the planet’ English-Russia. I think the version featuring womens win it by a nose. Or something.
…someone then vomits into the same open ass and waits for the fecal-puke to be shit out so they can eat it.
A scene from swap.avi
I’ve not seen swap.avi. As they said in 8mm, “…there are some things you can’t un-see..” and watching poor Brazilian’s defecating into each others distended rectums is an image I can happily live without, especially knowing someone then vomits into the same open ass and waits for the fecal-puke to be shit out so they can eat it.
Nastier than a drunken evening with Condoleeza Rice and Dick Cheney.
The video is the result of a thread at ‘Something Awful’ which started with this enquiry from a participant called ‘Metis’:
“I’ve read the rules for requesting a movie to be made, and it said that if I have a fetish that is different from what is offered, you may be able to talk to the directors and work something out. I got a great idea while watching some scat movies recently: scat swapping. This would basically be a movie where one woman’s ass is penetrated by fingering and tonguing and fisting to make her anus very loose. A third woman will pull her anus open further and hold it open, meanwhile the second woman, the scat-giver, shits in the first woman’s open ass. The woman whose ass has been shit in will then shit the scat-giver’s shit back out, and everyone will eat it. If possible, I would also like it if the women were able to vomit in the woman’s ass along with the shit, or afterwards, so that the vomit could also be shit out and eaten. Please get back to me and let me know if this is something you can accomplish in a video, and if so, how much it would cost. Thank you!”
As always, this isn’t a question of censorship but what, if anything, do ‘average’ sex-positive porn fans think is outside the bounds of good taste, or is taste not an applicable measure when it comes to sex? We claim to prohibit criminality in porn not only because we respect the law but because we agree child abuse and murder are wrong. Is there anything you can do to an adult short of killing them which counts as abuse and, if so, when does ‘fetish’ in porn cross the line?
If you want to research this properly and see what $350 buys in Brazil, you can download swap.avi below. If you’re reading this from work… well no one’s that stupid: Swap.avi (torrent)
I have no proof and no one in Hollywood’s given me a tip, but I’ve just noticed that Diora Baird - who’s lovingly known in casting circles as Boobzilla - next two movies are titled ‘Young People Fucking‘ and ‘Pornstar‘. She’s also 5′7″ tall and has at least one ugly below the knee tattoo (see above). Given her fondness for getting topless, yes-you-would looks and C-list status why isn’t anyone talking about her as the star of Jenna Jameson’s, surely straight-to-download, biopic Horcrux ‘Heartbreaker’.
You read it hear first.
(NB: I reserve the right to be wrong and to continue publishing pictures of Diora Baird for any reason I can think of).
