I don’t often get political on this blog, but the Republican presidential hopefuls this year are something else. And not in a good way. Rick Santorum is, in my mind, the very worst. I didn’t like him when I lived in Pennsylvania and he was a senator there and I certainly don’t like him now. As if he wasn’t annoying enough, Rick Santorum now wants to ban porn.

Listen, dude. I get it. You believe that pornography is harmful to marriages and your relationship with God. You fully have the right to believe that. But I have the right to believe that pornography can be helpful to marriages and brings me closer in my relationship with the divine. If you want to pass harsher laws again people who provide porn to minors, fine. If you want to pass harsher laws again people who share or possess kiddie porn, fine. If you want to provide rehab programs to people who feel like they have an addiction to porn, fine.

But I am an ADULT. And if if I want to watch two consenting adults fuck one another in the ass while a third person pees on them and a fourth person rubs her feet and a fifth person jacks off in a bunny suit and a sixth person blows someone at a glory hole in the background, what right do you have to take that orgy movie away from me?

You don’t. The great thing about living in the United States is that assholes like you, Mr. Santorum, don’t get to take away a legitimate form of art just because you feel it’s against your religion and your moral values. You get to be conservative and believe things that are ass-backward and damaging in my opinion and I get to be liberal and rub my pussy while watching porn even though it might be ass-backward and damaging in your opinion.

Aghr, so annoyed at this. Santorum has no chance of winning the presidency in my opinion, but that guy really gets to me.

Y’all need to watch this video. It starts slow, but at about the 1:20 mark, she jumps on the pole and is AMAZING. Seriously, I’m in awe.

There are no words for how crazy talented this girl is.

Hat tip to Mitzi Rae who posted this on Facebook, which is how I found this video in the first place.

UPDATE: The girl in the video is Jenyne Butterfly! Give her Facebook page a like!

I just wanted to take a moment to express how sad I am to hear about the passing of Athus Nadorian, one of the masterminds behind Bad Dragon, a small company that makes really awesome sex toys like the one pictured at right.

I’m late to the game to expressing my condolences. Athus (who’s real name was Brian Dyer), was involved in a fatal car accident on October 11, 2011. He was only 29 years old. You can see the website in his honor here.

I only recently became aware of this company – actually, I saw someone reviewing their toys as I was looking at nominations for the 2011 Top Sex Bloggers List. Bad Dragon’s tagline is “making fantasies real” – and they certainly do! Their sex toys are fashioned to look like the naughty bits of dragons, beasts, and other mythical creatures. When I decided to look up more info about the company, I read about about his passing and just wanted to take a moment to write about how sad I am to hear about his death.

Athus was an incredible artist, and although Bad Dragon wasn’t yet well known in the sex toy industry, I think this company will only continue to grow. That’s in part thanks to Athus and his incredible design talent. Their toys are totally innovative and cool, and we need more awesome ideas of that not just in the sex toy industry, but in the entire world.

Abortion is a tricky topic. I’m personally pro-choice because:

• I believe that there are situations where the mother’s life should come before unborn child’s life. If it’s a risky pregnancy, the mother should have the option to relieve herself of that risk.
• I believe that without abortion options, some women will resort to illegal and unsafe options. When abortion is legalized it can be regulated.
• I believe that a baby deserves a good life, and there are women who can’t provide that.

But this isn’t about being pro-life or pro-choice. If you believe that abortion should be illegal, I can respect that opinion. What I can’t stand behind, however, is the idea that birth control should be illegal.

In Mississippi, a newly proposed law meant to ban abortion could also make birth control methods like the pill, Plan B, and IUDs illegal as well because these work, in part, by making it difficult for a fertilized egg to implant. If you’re using birth control and the egg is fertilized at all (which is already unlikely), it would just be flushed out rather than implanting.

At this point, there is no baby. There is simply a cell called a zygote that you can’t see because it is so microscopic. Pregnancy isn’t even medically detectable until implantation. The fact of matter is that barriers (like condoms) aren’t effective 100% of the time and I will NEVER support a law that requires abstinence to avoid pregnancy. We’re put on this earth as sexual creatures. Just because you aren’t ready to have a baby yet doesn’t mean that you should not be allowed to have sex!

While those encouraging others to vote YES on Proposition 26 today say that it is meant to solely ban abortion, not birth control, the fuzzy wording will make it possible for hormonal birth control to be targeted as well.

Research shows that 98% of Catholic women (whose religion forbids birth control other than abstinence) use some form of religiously taboo birth control, and of those, 68% used a hormonal method of birth control, the IUD or sterilization. 73% of Protestant women and 74% of evangelical women also use hormonal birth control. I’m guessing that non-religious or other religiously-affiliated women use hormonal birth control at rates that are similar or even higher.

So, theoretically, Prop 26 shouldn’t pass.

But I’m worried that it will because people aren’t educated. They either won’t even know what Prop 26 is on the ballot or they won’t understand that it puts hormonal birth control on the chopping block. So please, if you are from Mississippi or know people who are TALK TO THEM. Make sure they understand what Prop 26 is and why they should vote NO. Pass on the information so they can make the most informed decision possible today when voting.

I came across this story tonight…and it really put me in a bad mood.

I’ll summarize for those of you who don’t want to click through and read it. There’s this poly group that held a retreat this weekend. The feds burst into the compound, searching for a 16-year-old mother who is suspected to be the legal wife of one of the 50-year-old members of the group. She apparently had a baby 8 months ago.

Yes, I think that the police should do all they can to find the girl and help her and her baby. And if more children are being married into sexual slavery, yes, I think that the policy should try to put a stop to this group.

The problem I have with this story is this: the group in question is a CULT. With “religious” foundations, this group is all about brainwashing its members to release their children – young girls – into sexual service with older men.

Yet, it was emphasized in the story that the group was a poly organization.

What, pray tell, does that have to do with anything. Statutory rape is rape, whether it is by a guy who is single or a guy who has ten girlfriends.

It riles me up because we never…NEVER…see a story about “good” poly relationships on the front page of Yahoo! news. There are hundreds – probably thousands – of couples enjoying loving poly relationships. I know a few of them. They are GOOD people. They are the kind of people who FIERCLY protect their children. They teach their children to love and respect…and to make their own decisions. They are not the kind of people who spend their days worshipping a cult leader who is fucking anyone under the age of 18 that he can find.

Polygamy isn’t evil. It isn’t immoral and perverted and detrimental to our society. Hell, for many, it isn’t even sexual. It is about admitting that sometimes you can love more than one person – and about finding a way to show these multiple people in your life that you really, truly care.

For the record, I’m not in a poly relationship. Will I ever be? I don’t think that it is written in the stars for me, but honestly, I do not know. If it is someday, will my children be in any kind of danger? Absolutely not. If nothing else, they’ll learn that love is all around, and that the world isn’t just made up of close-minded people and cults.
