Icelandic "Gobbledigook" Makes Everyone Get Naked

Dashiell Bennett — Wed, 28 May 2008 16:11:58 EDT

We're big fans of Sigur Rós and their special brand of trippy Icelandic freakout music, but we think that maybe the actors in their latest video had a bit of freakout of their own. How else to explain the woodsy frolicking, campfire dancing, body painting, and general wacked frivolity of these skinny Calvin Klein ad dropouts? Or the fact that they're completely naked during all that outdoors mayhem? Granted, the band's new single "Gobbledigook" (the song and video are available for free download) does sound like the perfect accompaniment to a backwoods love fest, so they can hardly be blamed for going native. Just remember that after making sweet, sweet love in a pile weeds, you should always check yourself for ticks.

How Hippies Uncovered The Human Body (Including The Odors)

Dashiell Bennett — Tue, 13 May 2008 19:03:28 EDT

Did you watch Part One of VH1's "Sex: The Revolution" documentary last night? Or are you simply relying on us to feed you bite-sized clips that will allow you to somehow absorb the meaning and context of the 20th century's sexual revolution all your own? (Hey, it's worth a shot.) If you watch tonight, you'll get more insight into the swinging single lifestyle, how birth control forever changed the landscape of wild, unprotected fucking, and how the dirty, smelly hippies are responsible for the whole thing. We just knew that somehow we'd be able to blame everything on them.

Marital Aid Test Kitchen: Back To Basics With The Fling Wooden Dildo

Lux Alptraum — Mon, 17 Mar 2008 21:02:56 EDT

People have been using sex toys almost as long as they've been masturbating: long before the invention of synthetic lube and phthalate-free superdongs, human beings have been sticking things inside themselves, things made of stone, tar, and ... yes, wood. If you find yourself longing for a simpler time, look no further than the Fling dildo. Part art object, part sex toy, the Fling is a hand crafted dildo made out of organic hardwoods from sustainable farms. Whether you're eco-friendly, plastic phobic, or just interested in trying out something different, it's a wonderful toy that's worth getting to know.

I must admit that when I first encountered the Fling, I was full of doubt. Would a wooden dildo actually feel good? Would I be able to sterilize it? Would it warp when I washed it? Would I get splinters in my cooch?

But within mere moments of insertion, all my doubts went away. To put it simply, this dildo feels really fucking good. Wide at the top, with a thin stem that leads into a nicely positioned handle, the Fling manages to make you feel pleasantly full while avoiding any painful "stretched out" sensations. Though insertion can a little difficult, and requires some lube, when the Fling actually makes it inside it's well worth it.

(A tip for experienced fappers: once you have the Fling comfortably inserted, try rotating it 180 degrees. Surprise! You've just entered a whole new world of sensation. You can thank me later.)

As an added bonus to its awesome functionality, the Fling's beautiful form makes it a definite contender for the Discreet Sex Toy award: to those who aren't in the know, it looks like a carved wooden objet d'art. So if you forget to stow it away, no one will be the wiser. (Unless carved wooden hippie art isn't your style. Then you might find yourself faced with a few questions.)

The Fling is coated in Lubrosity, a trademarked finish that's chemical/bacteria-resistant, waterproof, hypoallergenic, and phthalate-free. Translation: it can be sterilized (wash it well or use an antiseptic cleaner), is shower friendly, and probably won't give you cancer. It also happens to be compatible with all types of lubricant. Score one for old fashioned materials!

Sneak Peek: Joe Gallant's "Candy 69"

Gram Ponante — Fri, 30 Nov 2007 15:01:15 EST

Pornographer/Beat Poet Joe Gallant sent along a rough cut of his Penthouse Digital movie "Candy 69" for our edification. Taking on free love and free verse in a Summer of '69 that bears little resemblance to Bryan Adams' version, "Candy" makes anachronism look good.

See some snaps after the gap.

. . .

Gallant's movie is a blend of his own standby seediness with a raft of Penthouse corn-feditude.

I am not equal to the task of describing the plot of "Candy 69" in its unfinished state. There were several peaks upon which ropy strands of plot hung, however.

I know that Dino Bravo delivers what seems to be a three-minute A & R spiel to a woman with tape on her face.

(But she snaps out of it.)

"I come like the rain and the thunder," Kimberly Kane says. "Hard and wet." Wet thunder? Groovy!

Kane is joined by Nick Manning and Voodoo for a Haight/Ashbury-style hoedown.

And I know that Brian Surewood and Seth Dickens are scared of this lady (as they should be).

Clothing-optional Brattleboro, Vermont used...

Fleshbot — Wed, 18 Jul 2007 10:38:47 EDT

Clothing-optional Brattleboro, Vermont used to be a haven for cute naked hippies letting it all hang out ... until some old guy had to walk down the street wearing nothing but a fanny pack, thus prompting an "emergency ban on public nudity". (Not that we have any problems with old people taking their clothes off, of course ... but the whole fanny pack thing is inexcusable.)
