When Life Gives You Pink …

When the better angels of our nature responded to last summer's wet and wild natural disasters, even Tassy's vagina sprang into action. Pink+Aid, the simulsex freakout DVD solicited by the neo-hippy Burning Man citizens Pinkgasm, is now ready for purchase, featuring sex-for-charity sessions by the likes of Lexi Bardot, Ashley Fires, and Vanilla DeVille. More after the gap. - G. Ponante

"We tried to give the Pink+Aid money to Habitat for Humanity," said Pink+Aid co-producer Halcyon Pink, "but they refused. Apparently, they'd rather have people sitting in the mud than accept our semen-encrusted cash."

A lack of ability to forward large amounts of dough and no facility with shovels (especially while wearing matching pink Uggs) led Halcyon and Pinkgasm partner Tassy to concoct a plan that was so sexy it just might work.

The San Diego sex activist couple enlisted the help of other "sexual superheroes" around the world to webcam in to a Globalgasm event held last (C)Oc(k)tober. With original music and donated bandwidth, cameras, and (especially) boobies, several simultaneous sessions were recorded and compiled for the Pink+Aid DVD.

"(Pink+Aid) is a grand sexual experiment that is exploitation-free, created with love, and the only commercial component is for charity," Halcyon said.

Halcyon and Tassy bleach their pink roots once every eight weeks and dye about once a month. ("We've done the carpet in the past," Halcyon admits, "but it takes a lot of chemicals in a sensitive place to bleach those hairs, so we just keep them short.")

The DVD features submissions from the Pinks in San Diego, Ashley Fires and Elli in Canada, Lexi Bardot in Florida, and Vanilla Deville in Arizona. All proceeds (save for shipping) from the $20 price tag go to DisasterCorps.
