Ok, so basically, this Brinkley/Cook divorce thing is your typical Hollywood story. Two famous people are happy until one decides he’d like to have sex with 18-year-old girls. Only in America! Apparently now (according to the Today Show, really scraping that barrel) it’s come out that Cook also enjoyed his porn. And not just ‘Oh lemme see some 30 second clips‘ enjoyed. We’re talking $3,000 a month in subscription fees. He really, really likes porno.

The frustrating thing about the Today Show piece is that they were calling the segment ‘Cyber Cheating,’ and while, surely, Cook cheated, and indeed he didn’t just look at porn but also used (apparently, its hard to tell with all the ambiguous language) ’sex’ sites, which we assume are swinger hubs, porn shouldn’t really be considered cheating. Granted, three grand worth of porn is divorce worthy, based on irresponsible money management and creepy factor alone, but looking at porn isn’t cheating. And if it is, every guy with a connection to the Internet is cheating. Half of them are cheating right now!

Is cybersex cheating? Arguable, but we can lean toward yes. Cybersex and ‘cyber-flirting,’ while physically harmless, reveal that you aren’t getting something from the relationship you’re in. Read More »

Growing up I always had a “Craft drawer”, full of pipe cleaners, beads, feathers, recycled greeting cards and colored tissue paper. I would spend hours “creating”, designing and making a promise to myself that ONE DAY, my creation would be as famous as Betsy Johnson’s.

So, that didn’t happen- BUT I have managed to aquire impecable taste and have found some women who’s craft projects actually turned into careers. Plus, Urban Outfitters is nice, but I’d rather spend $40 dollars on booze, not a scarf. Lets support the small business’! Hollaa!

Now let’s get a little taboo shall we? Ladies, we need to “get ours” too. So many of my girlfriends are too scared to walk into a sex shop and ask where the Vibrators are, “High powered and maybe in the color pink, or purple??” They fear judgement, and scuzzy men. So why not buy online? Smittenkittenonline.com, won’t pop up with graphic porno ads and is easy to navigate: classy and modest. Go on, get down. Read More »

No, I’m not saying that it’s gone for good, but with recent online advancements, the huge industry is going down.

The New York Times reports that “the established pornography business is in decline — and the Internet is being held responsible. The online availability of free or low-cost photos and videos has begun to take a fierce toll on sales of X-rated DVDs. Inexpensive digital technology has paved the way for aspiring amateur pornographers, who are flooding the market, while everyone in the industry is giving away more material to lure paying customers.”

Some of these amateur photographers happen to be college students. Take the example of Indiana University co-ed, Keira, who caught a lot of heat for the amateur soft core porn site she was running out of her dorm room.

With free options like this, who needs to go out to the store and actually spend money on a DVD?
