Friday link-o-rama

A whole bunch of stuff I've been meaning to post about, definitely worth checking out:

My fellow cupcake blogger and friend Allison (aka Alizinha, The Brazilian Muse) is now on MySpace

Audacia Ray's book Naked on the Internet: Hookups, Downloads, and Cashing in on Internet Sexploration is available for pre-order on Amazon

Jessica Gold Haralson, sex blogger superstar

Freshmen: Don't sell virginity on the cheap," Daily Trojan

Mistress Matisse responds to a woman who's submissive in the sheets, not in the streets

"Get on the Shortbus," Violet Blue, "Open Source Sex," San Francisco Chronicle

Bett Williams says about Shortbus:

Shortbus was great, a miracle of a movie to pull off. It was a cheesy, corny, hokey porn movie full of annoying hipsters that was completely moving, erotic and inspiring.

Tricia Romano has some fabulous photos of the Shortbusers

The New York Post talks to Laura Kipnis about The Female Thing

Tricia Romano visits Hell (House) (and takes photos)

What an opener:

I'm in hell. There's a nice blonde girl handing out powdered white doughnuts, a hokey band singing Christian songs on a stage with a glowing white cross, and a strangely happy guy grinning ear-to-ear as he claps awkwardly in time to the music. In the corner, there's a giant photo of Jesus that says, "Pin the Sin on Jesus."

Rachel Dodds tells us what "the fuss" is about sex"

From a primal urge to a concept, sex wields more power than anything in our human existence. As a result, sex becomes complicated with its many facets of good and evil. We sell sex, we trade sex, and we use sex to generate profit. Sex can be used as an expression of control, anger, violence and degradation.

Some are addicted to sex and some have uncontrollable urges deemed by society as unacceptable. There are predators and there are victims in the world of sex. The dark underbelly of sexual expression is around us. It's in war crimes around the world, it's in mainstream adult entertainment, and it even manifests itself in our homes and in our families.

Sex is also the most powerful expression of love. Sex can be a euphoric experience spiritually, emotionally, mentally and physically - not just with another person, but even with yourself. It reveals aspects of our personalities we didn't know existed.

Sex is the very act that allows us to experience the indescribable joy of bringing a new soul into the world. Sex is a healthy and fun form of human expression we should celebrate.


Hanne Blank's tips on one of my favorite activities - dishwashing

"Dan Savage is Seattle's Margaret Cho," Seattlest

Jason Pinter on agent/editor figure fudging:

Agents and editors both tend to fudge the figures when reporting. Agents because they want the perception that the sell books for lots of money (which in turn draws better clients and more notice from editors). Editors because they want agents to know they spend lots of money which in turn brings in better submissions.
