Love Sucks?

Monday, February 12th, 2024 -- by Bacchus

The management would like you to remember that while love may suck, the Kink.com Love Sucks sale in honor of Valentine’s Day can guarantee that your holiday needn’t suck, even if you are “temporarily embarrassed” in the having-a-sex-partner department. Abundant porn, like abundant money, cannot guarantee happiness, but as a wise observer once said, it can keep you entertained nonetheless:

Eight Kinky Christmases

Saturday, December 17th, 2022 -- by Bacchus

Since we are currently enjoying the ErosBlog 20th-anniversary year, and because the 2022 Kink.com “Naughty and Nice” holiday sale just started, I thought it would be fun to look back at kinky Christmases past. It turns out that ErosBlog has featured Kink.com content during no fewer than eight previous festive-holiday seasons:

  • In 2020 we got a “used, sticky, happy” blonde tied up under the Christmas tree with the other presents. But not until she enjoyed the Christmas Eve bondage gangbang that she had been wanting for years.
  • In 2019, Santa done fucked up! He dropped down the wrong chimney and let himself get captured by a bored and lonely MILF-dominatrix. He ended up getting a merrier Christmas than he bargained for.
  • Also in 2019, we found a very large gift-wrapped box under our tree. Inside? A stunning brunette, a buzzing Sybian, and a whole lot of orgasms.
  • Also in 2019 (heck, that year was pretty much a kinky advent calendar) we got three anal-obsessed lesbians having a slumber party under the Christmas tree. Not much slumbering transpired. Fortunately, the elf on the shelf had a camera inside, so this holiday cheer got captured for us all.
  • Back in 2012, we got a blonde with big tits and a Santa hat riding a Sybian for our libidinous entertainment. She reminded me of “Penny” from Big Bang Theory, but the actress on the orgasm machine was not actually Kaley Cuoco. Even Santa Claus has limits to his power.
  • In 2010, the kinky Christmas festivities involved two dommes and three helpless himbos. It was an energetic celebration with more than one good hard holiday spanking!
  • In 2009, we found out that Santa is a sadistic bastard. He keeps shackled slavegirls in his workshop to pack his toys and polish his knob and satisfy his every sexual whim. These whims, it turns out, are both numerous and inventive.
  • In 2007, I shared a kinky porn shoot that featured the very thing that I wanted for Christmas. Surprisingly, the object of my desire was not the lovely lady chained to a blowjob post, although I never say “no” to opportunities such as those. Nope! The focus of my lust was the vintage antique ceramic-and-metal tractor sign on the dungeon wall. What can I say? The heart wants what it wants.

Merry kinky Christmas!

Haunted Assholes: The 2021 Kink.com Halloween Sale

Friday, October 22nd, 2021 -- by Bacchus

haunted assholes halloween sale gif

I just about fell out of my chair laughing when I saw the banners for Kink.com’s Halloween Sale this year. The theme is apparently “cartoonishly-haunted assholes” and if a hairy eyeball in one performer’s privates doesn’t make you laugh, the waving technicolor tentacle in the other one’s anus really ought to!

Tentacle sex is not unheard of in the vast Kink Unlimited porn library, but it is somewhat rare. Nonetheless I was indeed able to find a couple of shoots in which a pair of fan-favorite Kink performers took on some huge sucker-y tentacles on the Fucking Machines channel. Here they are: Sensi Pearl’s tentacle-sex shoot and Katy Kox’s tentacle-sex shoot too!

Perhaps you thought that the waving purple ass-tentacles at the top of the post were as over-the-top as it was possible for a porn-marketing graphics department to get. If so, I’m sorry, but I am forced to help you revise your thinking. You haven’t seen a properly haunted asshole until you’ve seen three gaseous ghosts taking advantage of a pornified anal-dilation situation to escape from their accustomed hellish colonic depths:

None of this Halloween levity nor any of the totally-sophisticated implied fart jokes should distract you from the serious bargain that this sale represents. For the spooky low price of $66 for six months (regular price is about forty bucks for one month) you can join Kink Unlimited, and they promise to offer you that same low price at rebilling time until, as they put it with appropriate holiday flavor, you die! The applicable coupon code is “Kink666” but if you follow any of the links in this post, you should expect to find that code pre-populated for you and the sale price offered automatically. (Until November 2, when the sale ends.)

Your Gay Weekend At Home

Wednesday, July 1st, 2020 -- by Bacchus

The suggestion reaches my ears that ErosBlog has been insufficiently gay of late. It’s true. But in my defense, I’m not well-qualified to properly bring the gay. That leaves the problem unsolved, though, doesn’t it? How are we ever going to achieve fully-automated luxury gay space communism if I don’t hold up my end of the deal?

Meanwhile, back on planet earth in the good old USA, we’re coming up on the summer weekend of our big annual patriotic holiday. Seriously, fellow USA people, the most patriotic thing you can do on the 4th is stay the fuck home doing absolutely nothing that involves other people. (In other words, the polar opposite of gathering shoulder-to-shoulder to plague-breathe on each other while lighting the stolen Black Hills on fire.) But if you do stay home — if you’ve in fact been staying at home for months, with no reprieve in sight — you may find it convenient to have access to ALL the pornz, in every conceivable flavor whether gay, straight, or otherwise.

Sadly, I do not have a fully automated et cetera communism solution at hand for stocking you up with porn. We’re stuck with corporate capitalism instead, at least this week. Would it help at all if your BigCo porn turned out to be heavily discounted? Because Kink Unlimited is 60% off if you join right now. (I suspect, but cannot guarantee, that the sale might last until Tuesday.) You probably already know, even if I don’t say it enough, that the 100+ channels at Kink Unlimited include an awful lot of gay porn, so at least there’s that?

Anal Tunnel Plug, Strap-On, Fist

Sunday, February 9th, 2020 -- by Bacchus

I think it was six or seven years ago that the inevitable logic of what I do led inexorably to the moment when I had to confess my bewilderment and ask “What the fuck is an anal tunnel plug actually for?” That post has accumulated more than thirty comments over the years, most of them helpful. Education, it’s a good thing.

While, time marches on, and porn catches up with sex toy innovation, eventually. Thus do we arrive at Crazy About You: A Lesbian Anal Love Story from Kink Unlimited, in which Dana Vespoli executes an ambitious series of intrusions into the ass of London Rivers. I can safely say that the anal tunnel plug and Magic Wand orgasm photos (here and here) are “just” the foreplay. How else is Dana gonna get things loosened up enough for the huge strapon dildo invasion? (Sure, sucking that monster rubber dick may help, but it’s hardly sufficient.)

Chanel Preston’s Treatment For Perverts

Wednesday, February 13th, 2019 -- by Bacchus

Bearing always in mind the ErosBlog editorial doctrine that perverts are purrfectly nice people: dominant nurse Chanel Preston has a treatment for that. A pervert treatment, that is:

the full pervert treatment for Rick Fantana at Divine Bitches: Kink Unlimited / Chanel Preston

The image comes from a Divine Bitches shoot at Kink Unlimited called Nurse Chanel Preston’s Unorthodox Treatment for Perverts, which goes like this:

Welcome to the Divine Bitches Reformatory Clinic. Chanel Preston, head nurse, administers a uniquely unorthodox treatment to the men consigned to her “care”.

Her patient Rick Fantana is a pervert. There’s no getting around this. He’s been in pervert treatment for over a year and shows no sign of improvement. Chanel knows it’s time for the next phase: pain.

Once Rick is fully restrained with leather straps and an open mouth gag, Chanel starts right in. Electric zapper straight to the dick. Caning all of Rick’s sensitive areas. Clamping all his bits. She knows the only way this pervert will learn from his punishments is if she mixes in a little bit of pleasure. Rick’s cock gets hard and drippy but he is not allowed to cum. Edged over and over again by Chanel, he whimpers helplessly.

Phase two of pervert treatment proves more effective. Chanel straps on a huge rubber cock and fucks Rick’s ass. This pervert quickly gets rock hard again.

After the anal pounding, it’s time for Rick to learn a useful skill: pleasing a woman. Rick is made to do cunnilingus on Chanel before she flips him over and uses his dick for an epic orgasm. Then she edges him some more, until he loses all control…

The State of Kink Unlimited’s Union

Wednesday, January 16th, 2019 -- by Bacchus

Amid today’s cable news babble, one bit of good news. The ongoing government shutdown disrupted plans for a State Of The Union speech that nobody wanted to hear anyway. But as I poured myself a celebratory shot of booze, it occurred to me that I never gave you all a report on Kink.com’s extremely rocky — but eventually successful — process of uniting its once-ragtag empire of kinky porn sites under the Kink Unlimited brand.

kink unlimited 70 kinky channels for one subscription price

I have a long and positive history with the company that became Kink.com in 2006. Peter Acworth’s original sites (beginning in the ’90s with Hogtied) were fresh and easily-marketed from an affiliate perspective. The company was professional, easy to work with, and paid like clockwork. As a sex blogger — even one not primarily focused on kink — I had a lot of time for all their projects. And at least in the early years, their models routinely reported safe and happy shooting experiences. They broke new ground with Sex and Submission, combining sex and bondage in a way that no mainstream porn company had previously had the courage to do. So great was their success, they were spinning out new sites like cotton candy. It honestly got hard to keep track of them all. They spent double-digit millions to buy their famous “castle of kink” — a former national guard armory — and ramped up production so much that by 2013 or so we started to need special web pages just to list all the Kink sites. Frankly, it was all getting to be more than just a bit of a wonderful mess.

But by that time, the arc of the profitable porn business had already peaked. Piracy, consolidation, and tubesites were taking their toll. In 2012 I noted with fascination an interview with Peter Acworth about his future plans for Kink.com in which none of those plans involved actual innovations in porn production. Obviously he wasn’t going to just walk away from his company’s core revenue stream, but his entrepreneurial eye was roaming off in other directions. About that time is when I started noticing that the affiliate department stopped being reliably and courteously staffed, too. Suddenly, getting affiliate support became catch-as-catch-can; whomever was doing seemed to be doing it “other duties as assigned” instead of as a core priority. Corners were being cut. Times were getting hard in the porn business.

One response from the company was to shut down or put on hiatus a few of its raunchiest sites (Bound In Public, Public Disgrace, and HardCoreGangBangs), eventually relaunching some of them with softer content, new shooting guidelines, and a bit of metaphorical soft-core Vaseline on the camera lenses. This was explicitly part of an effort to reposition the Kink.com brand as more of a mainstream lifestyle trademark a la Playboy. The unspoken notion, I think, was to license the fancy K on merchandise, and extend the “Kink” brand beyond porn, which was seen as a business in the final throes of ignominious death.

This cost-cutting and brand repositioning culminated in two huge moves in 2017 and 2018. 2017 brought news that all porn production in the huge San Francisco armory building had ceased, due to a search for tenants that were being dissuaded by sharing space with porn production. (That same story included rumors of a 40% decline in porn subscription revenue, driving the need to find tenants to support the massive space.) Porn production reported moved to “Southern California, Nevada and other parts of the Bay Area.” This caused one waggish email correspondent to describe the company to me as “a loose collection of contractors flying in formation” which I think may have been accurate at the time — except, I’m not sure if they were managing much of a formation. Of which, more later. (The move out of the Armory had to be traumatic for the organization. Empathy.)

Anyway, when I heard production was leaving the armory, my instant assumption was that this was preparation for sale of the building. I was not wrong: it sold in early 2018, for $65,000,000. (2006 purchase price: $14,500,000.) I’m not saying Kink.com didn’t make lots of money in porn, but this makes it look like a wildly-successful real estate business to me!

iconic armory building, long the home of Kink.com

But I got ahead of myself. Backtrack to 2015 or so, when nobody much was making any money in porn. Everybody was grasping at crazy straws like remaking themselves as “lifestyle brands” — this was the brutal year when even Playboy briefly flirted with the notion of abandoning nudity because they were bleeding losses and couldn’t get any social media traction due to #pornocalypse anti-nudity policies everywhere.

One strategy, widely adopted by the few remaining big porn companies, was to take all their little porn sites (and everything left was little compared to previous years) and shovel them together into package deals. “10, 20, 30 sites for one low subscription price!” Those were the shouty offers, and to this day they remain the industry’s default value proposition. Some of these offers — if they are backed by a company that’s still actively producing a wide variety of porn — are very good offers indeed.

The way these deals usually work is as follows: a porn company will take all their old sites, the ones that aren’t being updated any more but that have deep archives, years and years worth of old porn. In Kink’s case, this would be venerable old favorites like Wired Pussy (regular production stopped in 2014), Water Bondage (2013), and Men In Pain (2013). These get bundled together with sites that are still producing (sites like Sex and Submission, Whipped Ass, The Training Of O, Divine Bitches, Everything Butt, Hogtied, Device Bondage, Fucking Machines, and the Kink Men family of sites marketed at gay men).

But that’s not even close to the whole megillah. Every test shoot, abortive site concept, and side project that never saw release — why not throw that in? Stuff that only ever got sold via their Kink On Demand porn-by-the-shoot product, that goes in. If it’s got a shoot ID in their shoot database, there’s really no reason not to throw it into the final product. And then, icing on the cake — why not let other porn companies into the action? I don’t know the details of their cross-licensing deals, but apparently it’s not hard to cross-license kinky porn from other companies and make that available too. (Presumably the back-end-software tracks views/consumption and compensates the original owners on some sort of negotiated pay-per-view basis.)

The end result? A product called Kink Unlimited. It rolled out in beta in 2016. The price point has fluctuated a bit, but it’s currently about forty bucks a month. That’s the base price. Sales — usually around various national holidays — can dip quite a bit cheaper. It’s also the case that if you’re willing to prepay for six or twelve months at a time, the monthly cost drops radically. Whichever price point you go for: for your money, you get access to a fucking ludicrous amount of porn.

Kink.com no longer makes any serious effort to estimate how much porn you get; the various banners and bullet lists don’t get updated regularly. “Over 70 channels” is their current claim — where a “channel” is code for a former site, or for a collection of content licensed from some third party. They say “Over 10,000 hours of HD video” — and they’ve been saying that for quite some time; I’m sure it’s rather more by now. “Over 12,000 shoots” — likewise. “Over 2,000,000 photos” — that number has not been updated since perhaps 2016. You get the idea. You get a shit ton of porn for your monthly Kink Unlimited subscription!

But friends, we did not get to “here” without some growing pains. The consolidation was painful.

Consider what the Kink.com porn site landscape looked like in 2015. They had thirty or more kinky porn sites, each on its own domain. Many of them were closed, or at least moribund, not being updated, with discount-priced access to stale archives. They had millions of affiliate links scattered all over the web (using at least three generations of different link structures) belonging to a bunch of affiliates most of whom where no longer active, due to the overall decline in the online porn business. They had millions of expensive “hosted galleries” — free porn, on their servers — to support those mostly-out-of-business affiliates and a bunch of freeloading porn surfers. And it was a world where the conventional wisdom was that the future was video, video, nothing but video. Google was giving all the search listing to porn tube video pages. Still porn photos weren’t appearing in search engine results anywhere in the top results (they still aren’t) because “the time the surfer spends on the page” is considered a powerful page quality factor by Google.

How in the nine frozen hells was Kink.com supposed to transition this mess into a single subscription offering under the Kink Unlimited banner?

In the event, they went with the Leroy Jenkins strategy:

That’s right. In June of 2016, they just burned it all down.

Hosted galleries? Gone. All the old legacy affiliate links? They mapped a few of them, but most of them broke. Gone. Those two million photos? It’s the age of video, we don’t need ’em. “Only…a small portion of our members use or appreciate them.” Gone. (Fortunately, the legacy photo collection did come back after about six months, although new shoots are variable; some sites don’t produce many more than the handful they need to show for free on the shoot promotional page.)

Needless to say, I found all this pretty demoralizing. My increasingly urgent (ok, desperate) emails to affiliate support were getting either no answers at all, or snotty “we don’t have the technical resources to address your issues” non-resolutions to my tickets. At one point one tech gave me a tiny cash credit for all the broken links he was refusing to fix, which I calculate was enough to cover about four hours of link repair work at my normal freelance rate. At this point I had something like 270 posts covering the years between 2004 and June 2016, call it an average of 3 links per post, something like 800 links. In excess of 500 of those were broken — either not going to the right place, or not crediting my affiliate account. Virtually none of these were simple, repetitive links amenable to a bulk find-and-replace. It was a fucking nightmare.

It was also too burdensome and demoralizing to fix. I didn’t even try.

What I did do, eventually, is start making new posts about holiday sales. I explained my reasoning here. And I noticed that people were buying, some, the Kink Unlimited product.

It’s a good product. It has kept growing since it was introduced in June of 2016. It’s fucking enormous now.

Finally, during the long holiday sales event that started in December, I bit the bullet and laboriously went through my 270 old posts, rooting out all the old broken links and replacing them with “new” working links. Everything is a Kink Unlimited link now — either to the main site itself, or to one of the channels (really just a themed subpage within the main site, showcasing the content from one of the old branded sites).

The laborious part was the old hosted gallery links. Those hosted galleries are gone. But, for the most part, each of the galleries had 20 pictures, and those same 20 pictures are now the free photos used to advertise the shoot. Most (but not all) the old hosted gallery links had the shoot ID numbers encoded in their URLs. So it was possible — not easy, but possible — to look at those old hosted gallery links, extract a shoot ID number, deduce a modern shoot URL, and edit the old post so that instead of saying “see more pictures in this free hosted gallery” it says “more pictures available with the shoot” or something.

But it took days and days and days. I drank. A lot.

Why did I do it? Honestly, it wasn’t about the money. Porn affiliate sales aren’t much of a thing these days, and what sales there are, come almost always from new posts. I have stats, and they tell me that old posts don’t see much traffic. A few long-tail searches, but the numbers are tiny. Honestly, rationally, leaving the links broken for 2.5 years didn’t cost me much, and leaving them broken forever wouldn’t have cost me a whole lot more.

Part of it was obsessive-compulsive disorder. It bothers me to have a large body of broken links in my archives. (Don’t tell me, I know, there’s still a bunch.)

But part of it was … the successor product is good. Kink.com has built a good thing with Kink Unlimited. All those hundreds of old posts, pointing at sites that no longer exist? I’m proud of those posts, and it’s worth some effort to point them at the closest thing to the proper modern URL.

In June of 2016 when Kink.com went Leroy Jenkins on us all, I didn’t imagine they’d build anything worth linking to. They were a company in crisis, a company in transition. A flock of contractors looking for a formation, with a boss looking for the real estate payout of a lifetime. I did not trust that it would be worth my time to invest in changing out half a thousand links.

It’s still very much my impression that Kink.com is a real estate company with a serious porn hobby. I don’t expect Peter Acworth to walk away from his porn revenue stream — which obviously remains substantial — but I very much doubt that porn is his primary obsession here in 2019. I don’t think it has been his first focus for many years. If he sold the business to MindGeek or another one of the big players, it wouldn’t surprise me at all. But that shouldn’t (fingers crossed) affect subscribers or affiliates too dramatically, at least in the short run. Kink Unlimited produces, licenses, and distributes a colossal volume of iconic kinky porn at a value-package price. It was worth a week out of my life to fix all my broken links. You might find it worth a twenty (or two) to subscribe.

October 2022 update: The Kink Unlimited product has been rebranded as “Kink Prime” and no longer includes any of the gay male content, which has been rebranded and repackaged as a separate subscription product as Kink Men.

Bondage and spanking photos are a dime a dozen, but how often do you see a pretty woman in a leather collar with her wrists tied giving a big sloppy enthusiastic blowjob? Or bouncing happily up and down on some male porn star prong with her wrists clipped to the D-rings on her collar?

I’m not saying you can’t find it, but it’s not common and it’s rarely commercial. In the United States, this has something to do (I’m told) with porn-industry-standard “rules of thumb” designed to help porn producers avoid judicial unpleasantry in all the most sexually conservative corners of the country where their porn might get sold.

So imagine my suprise today to discover that one of my favorite porn producers (the folks who, from their bastion of permissive community standards in San Francisco, put out sites like the oddly transgressive Ultimate Surrender girl/girl wrestling site, the justly famous Hogtied bondage site, or the sadly-defunct Real Fucking Couples) has crossed the line in a big way with their new site called Sex and Submission. For the first time that I’ve seen, an American porn company is making real BDSM porn that includes tight bondage, hard spanking, and real unfaked sex.

Let me illustrate by pointing to this Sex And Submission shoot, which opens with an almost stereotypical, even banal, BDSM tableau. Here’s a pretty woman (Lori Alexia) on her knees, on a leash but not otherwise bound, looking hungrily in the direction of some fellow’s presumably masterful erection:

Of course, every two-bit BDSM pornographer in the last twenty years has shown you a picture like that, teasing you into hoping that she’ll be naked and tied (or chained, or whatever) in the next picture, and sucking like mad (still tied) in the picture after that. But if you bought the tease, you’d be disappointed. In the bad stuff, the leash is as good as the bondage gets; in the better stuff, her bondage gets more severe, and you might eventually see his penis held near her face, almost-but-not-quite in range of her tongue. And then in the next shot, you’ll looking at a blowjob closeup. And in the shot after that, they are going at it hammer and tongs — and she’s not tied any more. There are endless (and sometimes very creative) variations on the theme, but somehow the bondage and the sex never seem to make it into the same photographic frame.

In sharp contrast to those tired old ruses, Sex and Submission (astonishingly) appears to be delivering on the tease. In the shoot I took that photo from, it’s followed by a spanking photo, a picture of her being tied up tight with real rope, a display shot of her still leashed, but now topless with her hands tied behind, and then (philandering Zeus smite me if I lie!) two photos of her sucking intently on the man’s dick with her hands still tied and his tight grip on the leash “encouraging” her. I saw that and like to dropped my teeth. It’s a thing that (up until now) just wasn’t done.

Nor is it just a fluke. In this shoot, the Sex and Submission people have lovely Jamie all bent over in a short wooden pillory:

Again, every BDSM pornographer has got one of these pillories, and an endless supply of cute girls to put in it. You can find a hundred thousand versions of the inevitable weary flogging. But have you ever before seen the male talent take the obvious advantage of the situation and get a pillory blowjob? Perhaps I’ve led a sheltered life, because I haven’t. Until now.

When one does actually find this sort of real BDSM porn in odd foreign corners of the net, there’s always the additional worry that the scenes depicted might not be fully consensual. That’s the trouble with bondage sex — the vast majority of it as actually practiced in bedroooms and dungeons throughout the land is relentlessly consensual, but it’s neither easy nor desirable to portray that consent in a still photo. These galleries, made in America by a reputable producer of known fixed address, go a long way toward alleviating those sorts of concerns.

I’ll shut up now. It’s time to play one of my favorite games with The Nymph — the one where I show her pictures on my computer screen and she says “Eek!” (while observing avidly between widely-spaced fingers over her eyes). Y’see, she’s actually the carpenter of the family….

Update: There’s a rather heated comment to this post asking why “only the women are portrayed as submissives” and “will this company be fair and show men who are getting spanked and tied and fucked?” The answer, of course, is not “sexism” as the commenter proposes. In fact, the answer to the latter question is simply “Yes.” The company in question has had such a site for years, called Men in Pain. Here’s a shoot featuring a man in severe bondage being caned, flogged, and penetrated anally and orally by powerful women. Sorry, Michelle, that dog just won’t hunt. Unless the sexism runs the other way? Why has it long been OK to show this sort of explicit submissive bondage sex when the man is the recipient, but not when the woman is?
