Apparently women don’t want a lot of things (well, namely, types of people) in their vaginas, at least according to this ad.  It’s a funny, tongue-in-cheek way of addressing the issue of condoms with too many irritants in their lubrication and spermicide, and I think it’s a pretty entertaining way to include the message.  I love when you can sneak in pertinent information along with humour or sexuality or even cute cats…  You know me!

That said, I think it’s too bad if women actually have these types of limitations.  I can definitely see the validity in some of them (the guys who come up and grind on you without your permission, whoever this Brad guy is…) but I think that keeping an open mind (and vagina?) is a good thing, because you never know when you’ll find the magician of your dreams!  And, of course, the same thing goes for men!  You may find that the person you end up with isn’t the one you’d expect, so there’s no point building up walls if you’re only going to have to take them back down.

I hope this made you laugh, but I’d also love to know if you have any of these dealbreakers, or (sadder) if you’ve ever had any dealbreakers applied to you!  I’ve got my listening hat on, so I’m all ears!

I hope you’re ready to laugh, because this one’s a doozy…  Only it’s not funny and cute like a cat video, or funny and sexy like a blowjob parody song.  No, this is funny and sad like “People actually thought this was a good idea?”…  It’s called Harmless, and it is an earnest attempt at “edutaining” the masses using my beloved horror genre to display the awfulness of porn.

Apparently having a box full of porn will cause overdone demonic child-women with long black hair to descend upon your family.  Violet and Rye very clearly explained the hilarity of a box of porn being the porn method of choice in this film…  Apparently it’s still 1996.  I’ll have to go get my frosted nail polish!

While the attempt at horror in the trailer is just silly, the real scariness comes from the fact that this is a real attempt at denigrating porn and their Kickstarter was fully funded by like-minded people.  While the content itself isn’t going to convince anyone, the message clearly has.  I hope that more people vocally share their support of porn as a valuable (and not demon-summoning) tool for sexual self-discovery and for developing deeper connection in relationships.  People need to think critically, and this is doing just the opposite.

So, what do you think?  About the trailer, and about this issue in its entirety.  Is porn harmless?  Is the movie harmless?  Is the movement behind the movie harmless?  I always love sparking a good debate here…  Or maybe we’ll all end up on the exact same side.  ;)

I’ve got cats and they love the limelight, so they have wandered into several videos over the years.  I guess they can’t handle anyone getting attention but them, or so it would seem.  Maybe they just like ruining the shot.  Cats like to be difficult, but they’re so cute.  You can’t help but love them.

I know there have been a lot of “cat spotters” who got a kick out of seeing a tail or an ear wander into the frame, but now there’s an entire blog devoted to it, which I think is absolutely hilarious.  It’s a Tumblr called Indifferent Cats in Amateur Porn.  I’d have to say that I’m pretty sure that indifferent beats curious in this case.  That would be pretty uncomfortable.

The site is still pretty much in its infancy, so there are only a few videos and photos up, but they’ve already been featured on Fleshbot…  I’m sure that the internet’s passion for all things pornographic or cat-related will fill the gap, and soon everyone will be talking about it.  Then you can say that you saw it here first…  I just want to be at the vanguard for once!  :P

Have you ever done any cat spotting in my videos?  Did it ruin your…  Concentration, or did you laugh?

I tried really hard to find the source for this, but I couldn’t, but it’s been making the rounds in Canada on social media…  I think it’s pretty funny.  Obviously, it’s full of a lot of stereotypes, but they’re all in good fun and none are mean, of course.  I haven’t been able to see much of this great country (yet) but everything I know about the different provinces through my friends and their experiences do kind of back this up.

Looking at Quebec, I can’t say I disagree, most of which sounds pretty great.  I mean, Catholics, sure, but asides from that…  Oh, and the protestors.  There are a LOT of them right now with regards to the students opposing tuition hikes…  But, you know, we’re a passionate people with a strong commitment to fighting to keep our province great, so that’s fair.  Maple syrup!  Poutine!  French!  Who could ask for anything more?  I’m quite proud of my province.

So, how about you?  Where have you been in Canada?  Where do you want to go?  When you see these little snapshots about our different aspects, what rings true to you?  And…  Do any of you know where this delightful infographic came from?  ;)

This sounds like the best idea in the world…  I love the feeling of getting a new Mac product, and there are a very large number of reasons for that, but at least one of them is the unique smell when you open up that box for the first time.  Clearly I’m not alone in this, because an Australian company has created a perfume with the smell.  It’s glue and rubber and paper all put together to somehow create the perfect blend…  Called “Stink Different” of course.

I just wish it was actually for sale, because I would probably spray it around everywhere, though it might make me sad…  I would always be feeling like there was a new Mac toy for me in the room.  I feel like I have everything I need for now, but I’m sure I’ll be smelling that smell again next time they unveil a new product…  Do any of you know what I mean about loving that wonderful smell?  I guess I’m not alone here.  ;)

I’m not here to get too political, obviously, but I wanted to share this funny little graph of some of the reasoning behind a certain group of people who not only dislike porn, but actively try to bring it to a halt.  It is, of course, courtesy of Funny or Die.

It makes me laugh of course, but it also does make me so deeply confused by why anyone would want to actually stop porn.  I can see not agreeing with it, but there is such resentment of pleasure, sex, our bodies…  It’s alarming to see how those feelings have added fuel to this kind of panic.  So much so that it’s a main talking point for a relatively well-respected presidential candidate…

I’m just so happy to know that, despite the craziness that goes on in the outside world with regards to sexuality, there are so many more people who see the value in exploring sexuality, supporting porn that caters to their needs and beliefs and making the kind of porn they want to see…  Where there is closed-mindedness, there is always unbelievable openness not that far off in the distance.  I’m glad to be on that side of the issue.
