We already knew that erotic professional and "all-around smarty pants" Melissa Gira had a way with words, but we're glad to be reminded that her talents aren't just limited to splashing around in her bathtub with a microphone: the newly launched Sexerati is off to a great start this week with posts ranging from European arthouse smut to the newly nuptual'd Mr. and Mrs. Dita Von Teese. (And as for anyone who's tempted to call it a "Fleshbot clone"—well, having another weblog on the scene that promises "erotic intelligence for a hotter tomorrow" is the kind of "competition" we're happy to have.)
