Washing The Bikini Off The Blonde

It almost looks as if the evil octopus is trying to hold Our Heroine down just long enough that her bikini bottom (which conveniently appears to have already come undone) can float up-up-and-away…

This artwork graced the cover of Bold Men! in March of 1961, apparently in support of a story titled The Deadly Blonde Wench of Waikiki.

VR Porn Mania

There’s a great deal of excitement about virtual reality porn on display at VRPornMania, which is entirely appropriate for a site whose evident purpose for existing is to get you excited about virtual reality in general and about VR porn in particular. You don’t have a VR headset? They will tell you why you should get one, and where to look for it. Don’t have a clue where to start with VR at all? They will point you in the right direction. If nothing else, the site’s your one-stop shop for enthusiastic VR porn evangelism.

One thing that quickly made me laugh was a YouTube reaction video of people watching VR porn for the very first time. Not, you know, porn fans watching it, but nerdy people who don’t admit to liking porn in the first place. Hilarity ensues. Here, apparently, is the body language of a woman who doesn’t normally admit to watching porn, the first time you show her a vagina up close and personal in a virtual reality porno:

She’s all like, “Whoa, Nelly, back that thing up and get it out of my face!”

More seriously, a lot of the porn professionals among my readership will appreciate the site’s straight talk about the need to pay for your VR porn, given that the expense of making the stuff is such that genuinely “free” VR porn of any quality is close to non-existent:

There is almost no high-quality free VR porn. Free VR porn is extremely rare. [And] paying for porn is way easier than you imagined…

The recent wave of “free VR porn!” advertising hype is unpacked for consumers, with a frank discussion of the fact that people who go looking for “free” stuff are going to find nothing but very short trailers and a few non-commercial graphics of dubious quality. The takeaway message for consumers is very clear: paying for your VR porn is still the only way to get access to any of the best stuff that’s being made in this exciting new corner of the porn industry.

The site also includes a detailed blog that covers everything from VR games (including several Patreon-supported virtual reality interactive sex environments that sound promising) to sex toys (some of which have internet connectivity and/or teledildonics and interactivity features now being branded as “VR” to catch the current marketing wave) to highly-specialized VR camera and photography gear. I particularly enjoyed the announcement (not quite a review, although one is promised) of the OhRoma “smell mask” featuring thirty different programmable scent cartridges including the smells of “private parts” and “panties.” How do we know the long-promised VR future is finally arriving? We can smell it coming!

Hip Hop Culture And The Medieval Church: Bros!

One unsurprising thing I learned while reading These Hoes Ain’t Loyal: On Prostitutes And Bad Bitches In Medieval And Hip Hop Culture was the extent of the agreement between these diverse cultures on who gets to decide the status of women. Men, of course. Duh.

On the whole, then, in the hip hop context bad bitches are good, hoes are bad, and men get to determine who is what and where the line is drawn.

This is exactly the opposite of the perception of sexually available women in the medieval period…. Again, however, you will notice that the good woman/bad woman divide here is determined by dudes.

Outrageous Annie

Ah, remember when arts funding was really controversial? This is from Annie Sprinkle’s files, from back in the day, narrated in the breathless tones of the National Enquirer:

A Leggy Sunrise

Now this is my sort of sunrise:

It’s the graphic from a vintage silk hose advertisement that appeared in the October 26, 1926 edition of The Rotunda, which was the newspaper of the Virginia State Teacher’s College.

Ordering Some Raquel Welch

Raquel Welch in a skimpy dress on the cover of Saga magazine in august 1975

This is just a note to let my Patreon supporters know about one of the projects in train made possible by your generosity. The above magazine (Saga, from August 1975) features a pictorial of the gorgeous Raquel Welch under the headline “Raquel Revealed: Pictorial Portrait Of A Sex Goddess”. It is my considered conclusion after substantial research that no good and complete scans of that pictorial are currently to be found on the internet — a deficit I hereby propose to remedy, in aid of which I have already ordered a scanning copy of the magazine in question.

Several photos from the pictorial can be found on the internet, including this one at Bondage Blog of Raquel in a fetching posture on her knees:

It was my skepticism about the nipples on display beneath her tiny dress, and whether they might have been “touched up” by an internet fan, that drove me to research the photo’s provenance, but I quickly discovered that nobody involved in the numerous social shares of the kneeling photo (and of its companion shots similar to the one on the Saga cover) seemed to have any idea of the origins of the photos, despite them being widely shared, albeit in various low resolutions with dubious color indexing. By the time I tracked down the Saga cover that revealed the true source, I knew the world needed some nice big full-color scans of the entire pictorial. Watch this space!

Disappointing update: It turns out the cover photo on the Saga magazine is the only one from that shoot actually published on/in the magazine; the inside “pictorial” is three pages of unrelated photos. Neither the Bondage Blog photo or the other photos from the same shoot drifting around the web were published in Saga. It’s back to the provenance mines for me!
