Are Sadism and Masochism Protected?
Finding the Villain Hard to figure out who’s the real villain in the destruction of Cami Strella’s graduate program. The Lenoir-Rhyne University in Hickory, NC? Evidently not. A University spokesman told the Washington Post they have no policy against digital sex work (Cami had a risqué Only Fans account). Unfeeling bureaucracy? Not really. Title IX…
Read MoreSexism in the Olympics
This is one of those stories where one doesn’t know whether to poop or go blind. The women had to struggle so hard to get ski-jumping listed as an Olympic sport. And now they face these apparently quite arbitrary disqualifications. Canada’s Abigail Strate, the winner by default, said, “. . . just goes to…
Read MoreIs Stormy Daniels a Prostitute?
Is Stormy Daniels a prostitute? This question has now been answered in the affirmative by the online media, and it is generally assumed that Trump gave her money for the one time (or few times) that he had sex with her. Pornography Is Lucrative Here is a fact that has not really been brought out…
Read MoreJeff Zucker Chooses Romance Over Human Resources
Romance or Human Resources? I get it. I know why companies insist on work colleagues making a declaration if they become involved — even if Jeff Zucker is involved. It’s to protect the less powerful one — usually the woman — from retaliation if things go south. This is actually quite a laudable objective, but…
Read MoreThe Dubious Cult of Hugh Hefner
I’ve got an idea. Let’s change the caption on EOnline‘s photo (the image that’s associated with the article, “Hugh Hefner’s Wife Crystal Unveils the ‘Real’ Her After Removing ‘Everything Fake’ From Her Body” written by Lindsay Weinberg) to read “Joe Average and Crystal Hefner.” Then what you’ve got is a greedy old man with the…
Read MoreThe Debate About Public Sex
People are having a debate about whether this is appropriate for air travel? I can’t believe it. The scene — a man pulling a woman on a leash — down the aisle of an airplane is so grossly inappropriate that a debate would be moronic. Would this be appropriate on a public street? That’s…
Read MoreAnti-Semitism and Porn
Thank you to Mira Fox for recently publishing the article, The antisemitic conspiracy behind the anti-porn movement, in Forward Magazine. I’d like to make several points on the subject: I have never seen “Jewishness” featured as a theme in porn. This would, I suppose, be classed as philo-Semitism, if it ever happened. But it seems not…
Read MoreOnlyFans Is Accused of Childhood Sexual Abuse
Picture a gang of prudes, in their Mary Jane shoes and prim expressions, seeking to choke porn by pulling the rope tighter and tighter about its neck. They pull and pull, and zap! There go the major credit card services. They pull and pull some more, and zap! There goes OnlyFans. All Sex Work May…
Read MoreAre Flight Attendants Guardians of Virtue?
These flight attendants who are blowing the whistle on “skimpy” outfits, such as the Alaskan Airlines flight attendant Monica Humphries writes about in Insider: are they faithful servants just exercising airline policy, or officious nuisances? On support of the faithful servant argument, most airline employees are really very nice and try hard to serve the…
Read MoreThe Eroticizing of Handball
Should handball compete with porn? The insistence of the International Handball Federation that women compete wearing bikini bottoms is worse than just “embarrassing,” as though someone had broken wind at the awards dinner. It is so grossly inappropriate for 2021 that one doesn’t know whether to poop or go blind. We are supposed to be…
