Fleshbot: Gay

Fight Proposition 8... With Porn!

Lux Alptraum — Mon, 27 Oct 2008 11:30:00 EDT

If, like us, you're against California's Proposition 8, but just don't know what to do about it, then listen up—we have some good news for you. Starting tomorrow at midnight, you can fight Proposition 8... by buying porn! Comstock Films is donating 100% of the purchase price of any DVDs sold on October 28 towards efforts to fight Propostion 8. For added effect, we recommend buying one of Comstock Fims's same-sex titles: a dollar (or several) spent on "Ashley and Kisha" (or "Damon and Hunter") is an added boost to the fight for equality.

Introducing Gay Fleshbot, All Over Again

You may have noticed that things have been a little screwy around here the last few days while we've been moving Fleshbot Gay (back) to its own domain, and that its URL is now (and once again) gay.fleshbot.com. Then again, you may not have noticed because you were busy looking at things like this and this and this and this, in which case at least some things are working properly. Carry on! (Buut don't forget to change your bookmarks first.)

"Workin' Hard", Or Hardly Working?

Richard X. — Fri, 13 Jun 2008 12:15:49 EDT

When a friend drops by Fleshbot Central unexpectedly and we find ourselves having to tell them that that we're unable to take a break to go grab a Frappuccino because we're hard at work, we usually get one of four responses:

1. "I thought that was just a wrench in your pocket! Har!"
2. "I thought you were just happy to see me! Har!"
3. A quick grope, followed by "Doesn't seem that hard! Har!"
4. A breathy "Well, let me see what I can do to ease your workload ..." as they drop to their knees behind our sleek mahogany desks.

(We're just kidding about #4. We don't have desks.)

Well, we have had it with all that innuendo and people turning our innocent, Calvinist work ethic into something dirty. But mostly we've had it with porn studios using the same sorts of titles over and over again. The last straw came in this morning's mail: a copy of Mustang's "Workin' Hard". Just look at that cover, people: he's not even working. In fact, the only thing on that box cover exerting any effort at all is that anemic title—and it's on its last, feeble legs.

So, if some crazy Greeks can sue to stop the entire freakin' world from using the term "lesbian" to mean anything other than an inhabitant of Lesbos, then surely we can sue to get pornographers to stop using the word "hard" except when it's a synonym for "diligently". Right?

In case that litigation fails, however, maybe we could suggest some other puntastic work-themed porn titles to use instead. We think "Teenage Spreadsheets" would be kinda hot; you may have other ideas. To that end, the Fleshbot reader who submits the best office/workplace-related porn title in the comments below will win free minutes to use in our new Video On Demand theatre, where you can watch "Workin' Hard" (which is actually a pretty decent film) or any of the other twenty bazillion similarly-named titles in the AEBN inventory. So, um ... get to work!

UPDATE: Ilsa the She-Wolf (aka Our Boss) says the contest will drag on for a few more days. So take Will's advice below: belly up to the bar and send in those titles! There's a sizable chunk of minutes at stake!
