Iron Man Trailer
It is great to see Robert Downey Jr. sober, and hot again.  Plus, I love him in pretty much everything he does.  Yay!  Win win.  Could lose Gwyneth, but then there is always some dumb bitch in these movies.  Could be worse, could be Kirsten Dunst or Cameron Diaz.

Thanks to Unabrewer again…

I admit I have an unnatural affection for shoes, but these are too much for even me to ponder.

1 in 100 Americans in jail…

2.3 million Americans in prison.  Pretty awful when you consider how many fuckers out there walking free should be in there with them.  The article doesn’t mention illegal aliens in their stats,  I wonder if they factored that in at all? There are lots in prison from what I hear from folks working in the system.

NOTE:  Yes i am the queen of typos… there is a Jenfilter 2.0 coming out soon.  Thanks Dan…

“USA TODAY Link”

The analysis of four studies by Murray Straus, suggests that children whose parents spanked, slapped, hit or threw objects at them may have a greater chance of physically or verbally coercing a sexual partner, engaging in risky sexual behavior or engaging in masochistic sex, including sexual arousal by spanking.

Oh my…

While I call bullshit on this I would like to point out that Studies are far and wide a crock of shit.  Anyone can play with numbers and statistics and get a result supporting their theory.  One of the big wigs at work really gets fired up about these so called scientific studies.  His favorite example:  “Statics indicate that wearing a bra may contribute to developing breast cancer.  I would venture to say nearly every single woman with breast cancer has worn one in their life time.”  Of course no one has made the above claim (at least I hope my tax dollars haven’t gone to fund that) because it is absurd. This study has that same sort of self serving  flavor to it.  A group of weenie hippie types who think spanking kids is bad have decided to get some attention but attaching it to the one thing which is guaranteed to perk everyone’s curiosity.

While I am not trying to make light of men or women who are violent and force themselves on people I have to say there is a difference between being coercive and brutal and being aggressive and overt.  Risky sexual behavior is a relative term but having sex without a condom and picking up strangers is a terribly stupid and dangerous thing.  If we are talking about masochism in the BDSM sense, then well no harm no foul, but if you are talking about masochism in the playing with death sense or getting off of mutilating yourself, well that is something else entirely.  Sexual arousal by spanking, well… heh.

We are not going to open a debate on what is and isn’t problem sexual behavior but I will say this much.  In my opinion, everyone regardless of being spanked as a child or not, is sexually coercive on some level.   Plus, what is coercive behavior?  I think many people confuse being sexual overt and aggressive with forceful and/or coercive behavior.   Ask any group of men if they would have a problem with a sexually coercive woman.  Trust me, if there is one that balks, he is gay.     Women are no different about this for the most part.  Women, not the feminista eunuch fangirls, love and often gravitate to aggressive men.   I am not talking about some stalker asshole male or female, those folks have problems that stem from a whole lot more than being spanked as a child.

Engaging in risky sexual behavior…

The third study, of 440 high school students from New Hampshire, examined risky sex, such as premarital sex without a condom.

I am going to state the obvious here, since everyone is thinking it.  Teenagers are stupid and have this odd idea they are invincible and most these days seem totally unacquainted with consequences of their actions.   The fact we have sexualized everything from perfume to cheeseburgers is the problem.  If teenagers are screwing they are making a bad choice from the get go, why would you expect them to choose to use a condom? As for adults and risky sexual behavior, well I could probably find an equal number of idiots in the unspanked masses.  Some folks are just too stupid to live.

Masochism is a whole lifestyle and I bet you can find just as many unspanked folks living this lifestyle as spanked.  Speaking of spanking, show me the harm in consenting adults enjoying a good spanking.   Hell, there have been songs devoted to Smackin’ Ass.

I consider myself fairly open minded about sex and what works for people.  The philosophy is pretty simple for me.  Consenting adults should be left to their own kinks.  Stay away from the children and minors, leave the livestock and house pets alone, and for goodness sake keep the swapping of bodily fluids to salive and those sexually generated ya pervs.

“Glitter Gun: For Times when you want to get whored up really really fast.”

The gun is a bit tricky, however, seeing as one glitter shot is not quite enough, and two glitter shots activates “drunk, horny slut” mode, so aim carefully.

Oh wow, I seriously need one of these.   Yo, Kat… let’s go in halfsies on this bad boy, k?

Ok, this is wrong on so many levels and frankly I am not sure where to begin. How about the link to prove I am not making this up. “More Joy: An Advanced Guide to Solo Sex.”

Let’s start with the fact this obviously a sequel of sorts. There wasn’t enough pages in the first book to cover all the many facets of whacking off. He seems to have Solo Sex a technique guide and then of course The Joy of Solo Sex must be the beginners guide. I was reading the reviews on this book and one says:

He quotes at length from readers of his newsletter about their unabashed enthusiasm for self-pleasuring. Not reserved for gay men, unmarried men, and horny teenagers, the truth is out that all men masturbate, a lot more often than was previously thought!

I am sorry, but is there someone on this planet who was under the assumption male masturbation was a rarity? This guy made money writing this book. I am so in the wrong business…

All manner of techniques are discussed, safe, and questionable. He (Dr. Litten) brings up the curiosity that all men seem to have about other men’s genitals and self-pleasuring practices, and how sharing masturbation with a friend does not make one gay.

Ok, wow. I learn something new everyday about men. Is this true? Do you guys sit around and wonder about your co-worker’s goodie bag? I feel quite safe in stating women do not share this curiosity about fellow women. I think I can go out on a limb here and say that women do not sit around all day and ponder the vagina of their friends or coworkers. I think we sort of lack the general “curiosity” about a hoohah if it is not our own. I could be wrong, I am sure you will let me know if I am.

The book is directed toward men, but not just to gay men. Dr. Litten coins the term “solosexual” for those who truly prefer themselves to a partner, saying it is only a matter of degree since most people experience the majority of their orgasms from masturbation anyway.

Solosexual? Excellent. Why bother socializing when you can stay at home with a bottle of lube and some candlelight (think 40 Year Old Virgin)?

I think this Litten guy must be the male response to Nancy Friday and her series of self help books about sex. Basically she collected a bunch of women’s fantasies and put them in book form. Some truly disturbing shit in the one book I browsed through of hers after seeing her on some TV show years ago. I suppose it is only fair the men have their little niche as well. I have always been amused by these books which are porn stories (not erotica, there is nothing literary about this stuff) wrapped in dimestore psycho babble and sold as self improvement.

Anyway, stumbled across this in some silly article somewhere off Digg which I cannot remember, sorry about that. Thought I would share it with you folks, in case any of your need tip and tricks on making Air Babies. I’m just sayin’.

Update: Found the link! Yay! This is amusing stuff. Luke McKinney on Cracked

Particularly insightful comments:

Dr. Litten achieves the impossible halfway through his own book and fucks up masturbation (we’re fairly sure fucks up masturbation is a fetish, but we’re too terrified to Google it) with the chapter “Sharing Solos.”

I am have long ago learned there are many strings of words you should fear googling. This is going on my list, thanks for the tip.

We’re not sure exactly how repressed the author is or how cruelly his burly father crushed his dreams of being a dancer, but once you’ve got two men naked, having handsex together we’ve got a different word for that. The ability to even write the phrase “sharing solos” and not see a problem indicates a level of psychotic self-denial that would make Nixon look like a weeping Oprah guest. The progression from “play with yourself” to “play with yourself and other naked men” puts you close to the most important naked-man-based revelation since

I love a good turn of phrase… but it gets better.

All of which is fine for Dr. Litten himself, but no use to the poor soul who’s on his second “romance DIY” book and is expecting pages with titles like “Mongolian Thumb Twister” and “How to Make It Feel Like Someone Else!” to help pass the long, occasionally damp nights.

Note to self: Add Mongolian Thumb Twister to your “Never Google is list ASAP.”

Go read the article which is entitled “Five Books That Can Actually Make you Stupider”

“Obama’s Pulled Ad”

via Ace… of course.

“Hail to the Chief”

Little chocolate hats… yum.

I only remember three:

Michael Johns the Boy from Oz was hotness and destined to be the object of my lust ala Christ Daughtry… but not quite, cuz you know there is only one Chris.

Danny Hernandez was fantastic with Papa was a Rolling Stone.  Beautiful voice, pretty boy, zero sexy factor.

David Archuleta is hands down the best singer on this season and with the exception of Chris “I want to lick sweat off his bald head” Daughtry, probably the best singer ever on Idol.   The fact he is 17 makes it unfair to compare him to Daughtry anyway.  Still, the boy is amazing.

Thanks to Unabrewer!

Stuff White People Like:

#75:Threatening to move to Canada

Often times, white people get frustrated with the state of their country. They do not like the President, or Congress, or the health care system, or the illegal status of Marijuana. Whenever they are presented with a situation that seems unreasonable to them, their first instinct is to threaten to move to Canada.

#64: Recycling

Recycling is a part of a larger theme of stuff white people like: saving the earth without having to do that much.

These are fantastic!
