Morning Wood

If it's the morning, I've got the wood: the first Art and Politics of Netporn Conference has me longing for a plane ticket; .xxx gets passed over (again) like yesterday's edible undies; Asian female sex stereotypes get real; and my favorite mental masturbation activity a la Craigslist, after the jump. V. Blue

· You know I'd rather be in Amsterdam at the end of this month, and no, it's not just the siren's call of space cakes: it's where the first Art and Politics of Netporn ("the first major international conference on netporn criticism") is being held. Seriously, how can we get invited to these things? (networkcultures.org, thanks J!)

· And now it's time for another installment of "follow the .xxx bouncing ball", while ICANN yet again defers stepping into the mine field and makes no decision regarding the creation of a porn ghetto domain. (ABC News, thanks Bunny!)

· If you're as tired as I am of seeing porn titles like "Kung Pao Pussy" and boring-as-hell sexual stereotypes of Asian women, then you'll enjoy the beginning of Asian Sex Gazette's new series, where they travel to Asia and get down and dirty with Asian sex workers to shred, I mean understand, global sexual stereotypes of Asian women. (Asian Sex Gazette)

· The New York Times get hip to that whole mobile phone porn thing all the kids are talking about these days. Snore. (nytimes.com; registration required)

· And I know you love the same kind of junk food for the libido as I do, especially whan you nibble on this terrific "best of" roundup of recent Craigslist sex postings. Because you can't eat just one. (Viviane's Sex Carnival)
