This is another one of those clever uses of mirrors in photography and art to provide two views of the same erotic scene in one image. Discarded post title: “69 Reasons To Buy A Good Bedroom Mirror”.
Furries, as we know, were not exactly invented yesterday. Here we see a man who dressed up in fuzzy finery for a group photo with his two favorite sheep. I couldn’t make this up!
In 2020 no gag about sex with a cop after getting pulled over is particularly funny, and I have my doubts whether it was a whole lot funnier in 1972, when this cartoon was published in the January issue of Men. But the girl is drawn sexy enough to be worth showing even without a gag that works, and anyway we all need the reminder that in 1972, cars still had big bench seats so you could screw in the back:
This photo reminds me of an old-fashioned text adventure game. At least one of the “you have lost” endgame situations finds you “in a small room with steel bars on the doors and windows. There is no way out.”
Imagine that a nice limo pulls up to the curb on your quiet street. The door flies open, and inside, you somewhat dimly see these two young ladies, dressed for clubbing. “Get in, loser!” they shriek at you. “We’re going to a sex party!”
The only trouble is, you can’t exactly ask them for their IDs. Are they jailbait? Is this entrapment? Or are they 19 and 22, and at this very moment you are being struck by the lightning of joy that strikes no man twice?
A> Get in. B> Close the car door regretfully and wave as they drive off.
Choose wisely. The crowbar hotel (or maybe a sex party, or perhaps a mugging) awaits!
For most of the eighteen years of ErosBlog’s existence, I have been waging a quiet war for a simple proposition: it’s possible for dudes to like porn and love sex without being assholes about it. There’s an irreducible fraction of porn fans who can’t seem to see or mention a porn performer (or any sexually-expressive woman) without denigrating her, using words like cunt and whore and slut and bitch. If this blog has a theme or a philosophy, it centers around having no need whatsoever to apologize for unabashed male-gaze appreciation of porn or of sexual women. Accordingly, I’ve always needed to moderate the comments. And I’ve never apologized for doing it. It’s just a chore, made necessary by the hostility of the world we live in to the point I’ve been trying to make.
Over the years I’ve tried different verbal formulae to explain the editorial policy. I’ve asked people not to act like dicks. (I’ve actually repeated that request a couple of different ways.) I’ve chided misogynist guys for being bitter and scared. I’ve written against sexual contempt. I’ve asked people not to crap all over beauty, and shared some outside perspectives on that notion. There’s been a lot more. But it all circles around this notion I have, that we dudes can love porn and celebrate sex without apology, as long as we’re decent about it.
All of which is a long way to explain why I’m posting this speech by Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, sometimes called “AOC”, upon the occasion of her having been called a “fucking bitch” in public by an old white powerful Republican man, Representative Ted Yoho of Florida:
The speech is worth your time for many reasons. It has a lot to say about misogyny and the problem of lack of respect for women. But I include it here as accompanying material for this one line from it:
“Treating people with respect is what makes a decent man.”
For reasons I don’t fully understand, the Internet Archive’s crawler had a lot of trouble capturing porn pages on Tumblr over the years. Even when it got the text and comments on a particular post, the image was often not captured. The cultural loss of the curated porn collections on Tumblr when Yahoo took the porn blogs dark was painful enough, but the fact that such a small portion is archived tends to intensify the pang.
The loss seems even more severe in the realm of animated porn .gif clips, which were an art form almost unique to Tumblr. Perhaps because of the file sizes, these seem generally to have been archived less successfully than single-image .jpg files. But a few of these Tumblr ghosts were saved.
Here’s a classic example: an enthusiastic blowjob animation prepared by DarkMinstrel007 back in 2013. Don’t let anybody tell you that making porn .gifs isn’t an art form. You could call it curation if you prefer, but if so, all you’ve done is established that curation, too, is art-making.
I don’t know precisely what stimulated Mike’s anger at his naked companion here. But the fact that Mike wears a belt with his name picked out in studs for just this sort of occasion? That suggests to me that he might be having ongoing infidelity issues with his unfortunate prone boyfriend:
