I have been, as Dolly Parton said in some movie, "busier than a one-legged man in a butt kickin' contest," but am going to try to catch up with posting SeX Feed stuff from SeXis magazine this week. Most recently I had  Conan O'Brien to officiate same-sex wedding ,  FAA has no problem with skydiving sex ,  Mormon Halloween: No gender-bending, please ,  How the Boy Scouts failed to stop a pedophile  and last week,  Mississippi Voters May Choose "Personhood" of fertilized eggs ,  Booty Drop Features On Campus Sex Stories ,  Elks have group sex in a Swedish backyard ,  Sex Ed Comparison Between Sweden and Finland . Finally there's this one from the archives....sure, I wanted to flaunt my own DIY porn mag covers , but mostly I just wanted to wear a costume on Halloween (this isn't my actual costume...hopefully that'll work out and I'll share it later). Have fun!

OK, I'm going to cram a lot of Sex Feeds in here today so I can catch up with myself at least part way! But before I say anything I have to call your attention to the photo on the left, of Camilla Parker Bowles and the Duchess of Alba....that face....that fabulous face.... Duchess of Alba, 85, in topless photo scandal And now for some archives.... For homework he wants you to masturbate twice as much IRS allows deductions for sex change surgery The Citadel admits inaction in abuse cases 144 tweets to document sex abuse....before she committed suicide Berlusconi cracks himself up HPV further implicated in oral cancers Killer cannibal model denied parole (doy) Injectable contraceptives may increase HIV risk Breast implants save Russian woman's life in knife attack

I've been trying and trying to catch up with Sex Feed....but they're like that candy in the Lucy sketch! They just keep coming and coming! Here are some more for your enjoyment! Older folks are better educated, more sexually active than before OWS protestor charged with assault Porn producer plans film of DSK case E! star Giuliana Rancic has breast cancer Sex while sky diving worth getting fired for Zachary Quinto: Sexy, Vulcan and Gay Perfume to support breast cancer may cause cancer Oh deer! Wildlife birth control DSK won't be prosecuted for sexual assault in France, either Gay frat at U of Iowa? More teens using birth control for first time sex

Just realized that my blog posts are saving a little strangely because I put them together a little while ago in anticipation of putting up some lists of Sex Feed posts that I haven't gotten to publish while I didn't have the web at home! My apologies about the weird sequencing, i.e. having Nov. 11 posts that appear to have been publisher in October! I'll figure it out one of these days. Have I mentioned that when it comes to technology I'm just a little Amish? ANYWAY... Today - 11/11/11 - on Sex Feed.... Ashton Kutcher Gives Himself a Twitterectomy A 60 year-old college student makes a sexual harassment claim over Human Sexuality Coursework and a few from the archives ABC News Anchor and Quinto Fan Comes Out Exercise and eat right and you'll have healthier sperm! Women are bisexual Michigan may totally ban school employee-student sex What do you mean you don't want a gay male cheerleader?

Listen for me on 90.7 WMFE this afternoon at 4:32 pm for What's Hot in Central Florida and in case you miss it catch it on the website at Voices of WMFE !      There was so much going on this weekend it was really difficult to choose what to talk about but no question, the Halloween celebration in Cassadaga  with it's promise of potentially seeing the devil in the spooky "Devil's Chair" (if not the one in the graveyard, who knows? maybe he'll turn up in the replica) was a shoe-in. There's a ton of things going on but no one else even hinted the devil might show up at their event. Gotta give it up for Cassadaga.       After going to one of the  Edgar Allan Poe  events at the Orlando Public Library this month and loving it I had to share that Mad Cow Theater is doinga show based on Poe's works at the library tomorrow at 2pm.       The Poe artwork, by the way, is a watercolor by  Marilyn Manson .       Finally  Gloria Steinem  is speaking at Rolli

"My standards are notoriously low, but even I'm not aroused by rotting zombie flesh, Nosferatu's rat face or the slow hand of Freddy Krueger..." So I started the quest to find something romantic the holiday that's supposed to be based on fear. It's true that a good Halloween fright can get your heart racing the same way arousal can but honestly, I'm not looking for the same thing in my horror film favorites, like "The Others," "Psycho," and yes, "Basket Case," as I am in a close encounter of the intimate kind.     Some people, though, have mixed their sexy time and their spooky time by having sex - or at least saying or thinking they've had sex - with disembodied ghosts. This week in  SexCult: Spectrophilia  on SeXis I got the skinny from author and metaphysical expert  Rosemary Guiley  about the phenomena of people combining the sensual and temporal worlds.      Bet they  have a really happy Halloween....

Thank you Alternet  for putting up  an excerpt of my upcoming book, Crazy Little Thing: Why Love and Sex Drive Us Mad ! This chapter is about the nature of attraction and features my friend and one of my favorite authors and speakers,  Sheri Winston  talking about some of the reasons our attractions - and lack of them - can be baffling, to us and those around us.     Sheri does a wonderful job articulating the confounding nature of attraction but there's also a narrative part of the chapter, which you'll hopefully be able to read in just a few weeks. This includes an interview with Ward Hall, a veteran carnival barker from Gibsonton, Florida who told Sam & I tales of love and intrigue in the sideshow, like the love story of the alligator-skinned man and the monkey girl and the golden age of Gibsonton when the "human oddities" of the carnival circuit wintered in that little tropical Camelot.       You can order the book by clicking  here on the Cleis Press/Viva e

It was my privilege to interview fashion photographer David Jay whose remarkable undertaking "The Scar Project," has literally changed the way many of us look at breast cancer. Jay photographed breast cancer survivors and asked for their stories and his stark, elegant, powerful black and white photographs give us a look at the disease and those who have lived with it that vividly supports the project's tagline "Breast Cancer is Not a Pink Ribbon." You can read the story here -  The Scar Project  -  and see the website  here.   The project has also been turned into a documentary by the Style network. Thank you, David, for the time, the amazing work and most of all for the reminder of early detection as the best prevention.

"I'd cut off my thumbs if I thought it was trendy," one of my friends once said to me and while I'm not quite that devoted I at least like to feel like I have an idea of what's in with the in crowd. Vampires are a trend I've been missing out on, surprisingly, too, because their dress sense, preference for the night and carnivorism are all things I approve of and share (except the dress sense).      This weekend I got in on the Vampire's Ball , a production of the Orlando Ballet  featuring vignettes choreographed by artistic director Robert Hill and I feel I've finally gotten the vampire fix I need. Twilight? Feh. This was so much better. The vignettes were engaging and surprising, the costumes were envy-inspiring and the dancers divine - how they do what they do is amazing enough (I don't think I've ever seen this many beautiful people outside of E! TV) but some of them did it in capes, no less - spectacular.      I enjoyed so much I was ki

Hi All!

Big radio week for me and for  Crazy Little Thing: How Sex and Love Drive Us Mad !  Tonight I'll be talking about the book on  Positively Incorrect BlogTalk Radio with Scott Cluthe  at 8pm and on Saturday on Orlando's  Out & About Radio on 810 AM  from 3:45 - 4pm.

So, so excited to announce that I'm going to be doing a weekly segment on WMFE, 90.7, Orlando's public radio station and NPR affiliate. Every Friday at 4:32pm listen for What's Hot in Central Florida featuring events I think you'll really want to check out over the weekend and if you miss it you can  catch up with the podcast any time right HERE on this link.   I've been such a big fan of WMFE for so long and I couldn't be happier to be part of it.  Cheers!!

     As an watcher of all things Dr. Drew, of course I saw the bulk of "Celebrity Sex Rehab," when it was on two years ago. I laughed, I cried, I learned...it was like the Waltons only with a lot of references to masturbation.      So I was shocked, shocked I tellsya, to see that Phil Varone, who was a patient on the show, was recently modeling for Playgirl, and for a sex toy, and lots of other things you'd think someone who seemed to work pretty hard at sex rehab ought not to be doing. So, is he a sex addict or isn't it? What is a sex addict, anyway? Can you tell when you're enjoying something versus when you're using it to numb you out? What's the difference between an addiction and a lucrative hobby?      Those are some of the questions I looked at in SexCult this week - SexCult: Is he a sex addict or isn't he? ...I could have gone on forever (ask my editor) so maybe I'm addicted to my job....at any rate, I hope you enjoy this as much as I e

Still catching up with my Sex Feed posts from Canada (jinkies, you'd think I'd been there for two years instead of two weeks!) and a few from the past week: What if your boyfriend was a lesbian sex offender?

So my new book,  Crazy Little Thing: Why Love and Sex Drive Us Mad   comes out just about month from now! So excited - I can hardly wait! I'll have some book book-related stuff to talk about leading up to the event but the first thing I wanted to do is let you know that I still have a limited supply of my previous book, "Pop Tart: A Fresh-Frosted Sugar Rush Through Our Pre-Packaged Culture," which is a collection of my columns from the Orlando Weekly and the Toronto Sun. It was published 2000 years ago , when Moses was in grade school,  in 1999, but there's still some very funny stuff in it and I'll send you an autographed copy for $20, no shipping charge, while supplies last.      Then when the new one comes out you can have the pair! Go ahead, get two...they're small. But, if I say so myself, pretty rich.
