Hey everybody, I’ve been conscious for a long time that the ErosBlog blogroll is getting a little bit stale. Although sex blogs aren’t quite the phenomenon they were five years ago, I know there must be all sorts of sexy sites out there that I’d link to if I only knew about them.

So, I’ve decided to solicit reader suggestions. What should I be linking to, in your opinion?

Here’s how I’m going to do this. Please suggest links in the comments. All I ask is that you provide a short description of the link and/or reason why you think it belongs on the ErosBlog sidebar. Please don’t just say what your suggested site is; remember to say why it is special or unique or likely to be of particular interest. A sentence or two is sufficient: “This is an astonishingly-comprehensive blog about latex fetish outfits” or “The best babe blog out there with a great focus on girls with natural assets” would be fine. (Yes, it’s OK to suggest your own site as long as the description is descriptive and free of marketing-speak.)

Bear in mind that comments with links all go into moderation, so your suggestions won’t appear immediately. I expect to clear most of your suggestions through moderation whether or not I decide to add the suggested link to the sidebar, but of course l reserve the right to moderate these suggestions just as I do all other comments.

Here is a short list of things that I look for in a persistent ErosBlog link, in no particular order:

• Sex-positivity (no sneering about fetishes and sex practices)
• Longevity (sites that have been active for years and look likely to remain active)
• Sheer size (sites with lots of content and persistent archives win out over ephemeral sites and one-joke gimmick sites)
• Self-hosting (sites that are on their own domain and hosting plan and not on Blogger, LJ, FaceBook, or another unreliable corporate free host that could pull the plug at any moment without recourse)
• Originality and voice (sites that offer something unique, or have a creative voice of some sort, rather than yet-another-endless-stream of randomly-assembled porn)
• Community (sites that link out to other sites are preferred over cul de sac sites who rarely link to anybody else)

This should be fun, and might prove to be an epic comment thread. Suggest away!

Sometime in the mid-to-late 1980s, Annie Sprinkle became somewhat famous (or notorious, depending on who you talk to) for her performance art show Porn Post Modernist, which included a bit she called A Public Cervix Announcement:

Personally, I’ve always thought she should have called it “Through Darkest Ignorance With Flashlight And Speculum”:

Well, it’s now twenty(ish) years later, in the age of the internet and digital cameras. Which means Annie’s groundbreaking work has been re-imagined, in the spirit of “citizen science”, as the Beautiful Cervix Project, with high-resolution color photographs taken daily over time, complete with a tip-o-the-hat to the “very talented boyfriend with a headlamp.” The only thing that feels 1980s about this project is the understandable but blogger-unfriendly advance-permission-required photo reproduction policy; in every other respect, it’s very much in the style we’ve come to think of as “Wikipedia Modern”:

This still of legendary silent film star Theda Bara is notable both for her eerie penetrating gaze and (especially if you look at the detail available in the large version at Kinky Delight) for the degree to which her “bra” could be identified as the inspiration for Janet Jackson’s infamous nipple jewelry:

This little photo essay from Dr. Tushy tells the story of a medical exam gone unprofessionally friendly. I especially like the look in her eye the moment she begins to grow skeptical of the “breast exam”. You can almost hear her thinking “Well, if that’s the way it’s going to be, give me that damn stethoscope and show me someplace warm of yours to put it!”

This post has turned into a study in faces, as so often happens when I am left too long unsupervised with a set of porn photos and a cropping tool. What’s causing this intense internal conversation that Lilla Katt is having with herself?

The answer? Warm soapy water, and lots of it, with just a little bit of help from the power of gravity:

This is from the not-very-secret pop-up easter egg tooltip text associated with a recent xkcd comic:

There’s Livejournal drama between those who want to wear human suits over fursuits and those who just take off the fursuits.

What’s notable about this asserted fact is that:

1) I believe it, absolutely, despite having made zero effort to Google it or confirm it in any other way;

2) The fact of my belief says something profound and interesting about the way we process information and establish our trust heuristics in the internet “information overload” era.
