The Guolizhuang Restaurant

OK, I admit to having a thing for hot sauce, and I can be rather adventurous trying out new foods, however, I think I found a place that would take this adventuresome spirit to a place that I am not sure I would want to go.

The Guolizhuang Restaurant, also know as Beijing's Penis Restaurant. Apparently they serve foods made from various cocks... er, animal penises. To quote the web "Guolizhuang is a restaurant where nearly every dish has a dick in it. You can have your choices of dog, yak, donkey, seal, and more."

Awesome, but it is not recommended for women. Yes, I'm off the hook. As for why would you eat this? Because sucking donkey dongs is good for the skin.

Just because...

.... it's Friday, and I've got lots of coffee made, and a busy calendar (in so many ways - yes, you'll get a copy of it, along with your jerk curry, on my next visit Y1) this weekend, and I am in a good glow-y mood.



Have a fab weekend darling!

Awww, now this is why we love you Y1. Mind you I have been researching the idea of the electronic dog collars with the remote shock system for shits & giggles.

Shopping To Do

Well Y1, it looks like I have to go shopping soon.



Also, one of my colleagues has offered to construct a seal-skin flogger for me. Now that will be an interesting and slappy little toy I suspect. January project for us chicks, something to do over caffeine and nicotine consumption.

How's the recovery going?

Adam Lambert and the AMA Furor

All right, how about that? Here's a gay guy doing a cool song at the American Music Awards, utilizing tons of S/m style props, and kissing the male keyboardist. Awesome. It's not like Madonna, et al having been doing this for the past 20 years. So what the fuck is the problem people? Dick Clark Productions, Inc. has pulled the YouTube video due to a copyright claim and states that it is unsuitable for TV.



Watch it quick before they pull this copy of it too!

The thing that burnt my ass worse than hot wax improperly applied to the posterior is that female performers have indeed been doing equally hot and sexy performances for years, usually with way fewer articles of clothing on their bodies than Adam. The fucking double standard that women can be raunchy, sexy, strip and kiss another woman is quite acceptable but a man - OH NO, not good at all. Unacceptable, touchy, too sexy, tastelss.

What ever happened to equality? I believe that men should fight for their right to be objectified equally as much as women. Get out there fellas and start protesting because North American media is trying to shove your sexuality back in the closet.

Another Play Date

Yes Y1, it is very easy to get hooked on play dates. Hope you enjoyed yours this past weekend. Just had another one yesterday and am enjoying it immensely.

Subbie was tied up again, edged, pinched, scratched, clamped up and down (I love watching the reaction when clamps are removed... sloooowly, it makes me smile), and promised more if he was good. He's getting more.



Ahhhh, as only those down east can do it.

Sick Ducks

I wanted to share this article that I discovered some time ago, before it disappears from the source.



Necrophilia among ducks ruffles research feathers
Donald MacLeod
guardian.co.uk, Tuesday 8 March 2005 12.23 GMT



The strange case of the homosexual necrophiliac duck pushed out the boundaries of knowledge in a rather improbable way when it was recorded by Dutch researcher Kees Moeliker.

It may have ruffled a few feathers, but it earned him the coveted Ig Nobel prize for biology awarded for improbable research, and next week he will be recounting his findings to UK audiences on the Ig Nobel tour.

Ducks behave pretty badly, it seems. It is not so much that up to one in 10 of mallard couples are homosexual - no one would raise an eyebrow in the liberal Netherlands - but they regularly indulge in "attempted rape flights" when they pursue other ducks with a view to forcible mating. "Rape is a normal reproductive strategy in mallards," explains Mr Moeliker.

As he recounts in his seminal paper, The first case of homosexual necrophilia in the mallard anas platyrhynchos, he was in his office in the Natuurmuseum Rotterdam, when he was alerted by a bang to the fact a bird had crashed into the glass facade of the building. "I went downstairs immediately to see if the window was damaged, and saw a drake mallard (anas platyrhynchos) lying motionless on its belly in the sand, two metres outside the facade. The unfortunate duck apparently had hit the building in full flight at a height of about three metres from the ground. Next to the obviously dead duck, another male mallard (in full adult plumage without any visible traces of moult) was present. He forcibly picked into the back, the base of the bill and mostly into the back of the head of the dead mallard for about two minutes, then mounted the corpse and started to copulate, with great force, almost continuously picking the side of the head.

"Rather startled, I watched this scene from close quarters behind the window until 19.10 hours during which time (75 minutes) I made some photographs and the mallard almost continuously copulated his dead congener. He dismounted only twice, stayed near the dead duck and picked the neck and the side of the head before mounting again. The first break (at 18.29 hours) lasted three minutes and the second break (at 18.45 hours) lasted less than a minute. At 19.12 hours, I disturbed this cruel scene. The necrophilic mallard only reluctantly left his 'mate': when I had approached him to about five metres, he did not fly away but simply walked off a few metres, weakly uttering a series of two-note 'raeb-raeb' calls (the 'conversation-call' of Lorentz 1953). I secured the dead duck and left the museum at 19.25 hours. The mallard was still present at the site, calling 'raeb-raeb' and apparently looking for his victim (who, by then, was in the freezer)."

Mr Moeliker suggests the pair were engaged in a rape flight attempt. "When one died the other one just went for it and didn't get any negative feedback - well, didn't get any feedback," he said.

His findings have provoked a lot of interest - especially in Britain for some reason - but no other recorded cases of duck necrophilia. However, Mr Moeliker was informed of an American case involving a squirrel and a dead partner, although in this case it is not known whether the necrophilia observed was homosexual or not as the victim had been run over by a truck shortly before the incident.

Yeah, Really!

Glad you noticed. I've has this one hanging around my pix collection for somoe time now:

Superman was Kinky! No, really!


I'd HIGHLY recommend this book. Millions of kinky people had their first exposure to BDSM imagery by their reading 1930s and 1940s comic books and strips. Damsels in distress, bondage, whips...Mmmmmm. Joe Shuster the co-developer of Superman, did a LOT of OTHER art too....much of it will surprise you.

Remembering the Spanner Case.....





Truly frightening....and not to be forgotten twenty years on. It could happen to YOU.

Back in 1990 Judge Rant (gotta love THAT one...yeh can't make this shit up) in the UK decided "in a complex legal argument" that consensual BDSM was considered assault under the law and jailed 16 people based on a videotape of a play session. This prompted the creation of The Spanner Trust to help defend BDSM people against the predations of the government, moral panic mongers-and lawyers who want to profit from the confusion stirred up by them.

Slavery isn't free.


Thanks for reminding us at The Spanner Trust, bois.

Menopause - Just because

And for getting through it there is this:


Laura Mappin is the creator of this art project.

It is touted as "A decorative work of art to commemorate that you've done your Tampon Time and you're Free At Last! This art object of a tampon symbol is beautifully hand crocheted out of metallic gold thread and hangs in a distinctive black shadow box. Gold trophy labels celebrate "Golden Tampon" and "Lifetime Achievement Award". Give it to your partner or spouse, your best friend, or even yourself! Makes a great menopausal gift or post-menopausal gift although it's probably not a minstrel gift. Celebrate new found liberation with The Change! Freedom from The Curse! Get some of the best medicine, as they say. Laugh off those hot flashes!"

The Sexiest Ape

Bonobo: Make Love Not War

Who said that violence is the only way to solve fights over food or territory? Instead of fighting, bonobos [wiki] have sex! Actually, their whole societal structure seems to revolve around sex.

Bonobos use sex as greetings, a mean of solving disputes, making up for fights, and as a favors in exchange for food. They tongue kiss, engage in oral sex, mutual masturbations, have face-to-face genital sex and even have a strange "penis fencing" ritual!

In their 1996 book titled Demonic Males: Apes and the Origins of Human Violence, Richard Wrangham and Dale Peterson wrote:

"Chimpanzees and Bonobos both evolved from the same ancestor that gave rise to humans, and yet the Bonobo is one of the most peaceful, unaggressive species of mammals living on the earth today. They have evolved ways to reduce violence that permeate their entire society. They show us that the evolutionary dance of violence is not inexorable".


The more I read about Bonobo apes the more I wish that humans were like their ancestors.

Bondage - We're Normal

I first came across this article last year on The Australian.com. Unfortunately that link is long gone but I found another copy of the AAP's article from a New Zealand site.

It is heartwarming to know that we are not abnormal.

Bondage lovers not sexually 'abnormal'
AAP
Last updated 21:20 25/08/2008

An unusual sex survey has found that Australians who enjoy bondage and discipline are not damaged or dangerous, and might even be happier than those who practise "normal" sex.

The research showed two per cent of adult Australians regularly partake in sadomasochism and dominance and submission-type sexual role play.

And contrary to commonly-held stereotypes, they are not doing so in reaction to sexual abuse or because they are "sexually deficient" in some way, according the study of 20,000 Australians by public health researchers at the University of NSW.

"Our findings support the idea that bondage and discipline and sadomasochism (BDSM) is simply a sexual interest or subculture attractive to a minority," Associate Professor Juliet Richters and her colleagues wrote in the Journal of Sexual Medicine.

The findings showed that it was more common among gay, lesbian and bisexual people, and that participants were more likely to have been more sexually adventurous in other ways.

"However, they were no more likely to have been coerced into sexual activity and were not significantly more likely to be unhappy or anxious," said Prof Richters, author of the book Doing It Down Under.

In fact, men who take part may be happier, with results showing they score significantly lower on a scale of psychological distress than other men.

The researchers did not study why this was, but suspect it might simply be that they're more in harmony with themselves because they're into something unusual and are comfortable with that.

Prof Richters says the findings go against professional views of BDSM.

"People with these sexual interests have long been seen by medicine and the law as, at best, damaged and in need of therapy and, at worst, dangerous and in need of legal regulation," she said.

There was also an assumption, mostly among the general public, that people involved in BDSM were sexually deficient in some way, "and need particularly strong stimuli such as being beaten or tied up to become aroused".

She said she hoped the results would help change these stereotypes.

The World Needs More Walken.....




I've always liked Christopher Walken-I, like others, am not quite sure what it is. Is it the New York street accent crossed with his high-end dancing ability and his Saturday afternoon horror movie-like name? Is it the witty and sometimes glib delivery? Or was it this scene in "True Romance":

Vincenzo Coccotti: We're gonna have a little Q&A, and at the risk of sounding redundant, please... make your answers genuine. You know who I am, Mr. Worley?
Clifford Worley: I got no idea.
Coccotti: I'm the Anti-Christ. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood. You tell the angels in heaven you never seen evil so singularly personified as you did in the face of the man who killed you. My name is Vincent Coccotti. I work as counsel for Mr. Blue Lou Boyle, the man your son stole from. I hear you were once a cop so I can assume you've heard of us before. Am I correct?
Clifford Worley: I heard of Blue Lou Boyle.
Coccotti: I'm glad. Hopefully it means we can cut out the part of the conversation where you're wondering how full of shit I am.

A great Walken quote:


"You know ... acting is not very difficult, once you know how to do it, ... And that's ... so beautiful, because you can say that about anything: It's not difficult, once you know how.
I don't need to be made to look evil. I can do that on my own.
I tend to play mostly villains and twisted people. Unsavory guys. I think it's my face, the way I look."


Here's part of an interview Chris did that I found on IMDb:

"I make movies that nobody will see. I've made movies that even I have never seen. Emotional power is maybe the most valuable thing that an actor can have.I've enjoyed making movies for lots of different reasons. Sometimes, it was the other people. Sometimes, it was the fact that I was really good in it. Sometimes, it was the location. Sometimes, it was the paycheck. Sometimes, it can be lots of different things, or a lot of those things. Or there can be reasons why you'd like to avoid it the next time. Like the jungle. I've made a couple of movies in the jungle, and I don't want to go back to the jungle.
Back home, I do the same things every day. Exactly the same. I eat at the same time, I get up at the same time, I do the same things in the same order. I read. I have coffee. Then I study my scripts, I exercise on the treadmill, I make myself a little something to eat. I am a great believer in the Mediterranean diet.
I have been in movies that I thought I wasn't very good in. I think, Chris, don't let your mouth hang open like that next time. Look at that facial tic. Don't walk in such a self-conscious way! But sometimes, I watch myself and I think that I am terrific - and that is really nice.I have this theory about words. There's a thousand ways to say `Pass the salt.'It could mean, you know, `Can I have some salt?'; or it could mean, `I love you.'; It could mean `I'm very annoyed with you'; really, the list could go on and on.; Words are little bombs, and they have a lot of energy inside them.
I'm serious. I do not like the unknown or the unexpected. I cannot stand being surprised, yet as an actor I like surprise. I get very upset if my bills aren't paid immediately."

Well, Neither can I.....Things we didn't know.



Modias, a blogger from the Deap Sauth, has an interesting take on Our Lady of Gaga that I'd like to shore:






Why I (can't) Hate Lady Gaga

-Modias

When I began this post last night, I wanted to hate Lady Gaga. I began my research and, it must be said, I am embarrassed to have initially set out to compare this amazing musician to everyone and everything that is wrong with the music industry today. I wanted to be able to come to you with a proven accusation that Gaga was simply the face for someone else’s music, but I cannot. The truth is that, not only does she write all of her own music, she was a well-known songwriter for other artists prior to beginning her own recording career. I wanted to be able to tell you that she was a flakey fashionista, showcasing the designs of a major player in the industry, but I cannot. The fact here is that, while of course she is inspired by fashion in general and certain designers in specific, most of what she wears is designed by her in collaboration with the now famous Haus of Gaga. This is an innovative group which is managed personally by the Lady herself, whose jobs include fashion design, the choregraphy of Gaga’s shows and providing inspiration to Gaga even as she inspires them to continue what they do so undeniably well. I wanted to tell you that there is no substance to her lyrics and that she is just another uninspired pretty face on the pop music scene, but here yet AGAIN my bias had to suffer tragically. Allow me to explain…

Many of you know, through postings on my YouTube Channel that I am a strong, passionate advocate for the LGBT community. This position has been mine since first learning about the struggle faced by homosexuals, bisexuals and transfolk in the late ‘90s. In 2004 I worked with my local LGBT community, registering them to vote and ensuring that their voices were heard in the North Carolina political scene (not a particularly easy job here in the south as you might imagine). Since then, I have done and will continue to do everything I can to promote equal rights for members of the LGBT community in all media. “Well Modias, what the hell does this have to do with Lady Gaga?” I’m glad you asked. As I write this post, I am listening to a remixed version of her song "Poker Face", a song she recently explained was written about being in bed with a man while fantasizing about being with a woman. Then on Ellen, some time after Gaga explained that she is bisexual, she embraced Ms. DeGeneres and thanked her for being such a passionate and well-recognized voice for the gay community. You see Lady Gaga, or “Gaga” as her friends and family call her, is fearlessly herself. That may only make sense to me, so I’ll try to explain it better… But you’ll have to come back to my blog tomorrow to see how! Comment below, please!

Fruit Bat Fellatio

Animals constantly provide sources of entertainment.

Fellatio by Fruit Bats Prolongs Copulation Time

Oral sex is widely used in human foreplay, but rarely documented in other animals. Fellatio has been recorded in bonobos Pan paniscus, but even then functions largely as play behaviour among juvenile males. The short-nosed fruit bat Cynopterus sphinx exhibits resource defence polygyny and one sexually active male often roosts with groups of females in tents made from leaves. Female bats often lick their mate's penis during dorsoventral copulation. The female lowers her head to lick the shaft or the base of the male's penis but does not lick the glans penis which has already penetrated the vagina. Males never withdrew their penis when it was licked by the mating partner. A positive relationship exists between the length of time that the female licked the male's penis during copulation and the duration of copulation. Furthermore, mating pairs spent significantly more time in copulation if the female licked her mate's penis than if fellatio was absent. Males also show postcopulatory genital grooming after intromission.

Rare Birds

Here is another fascinating mating ritual caught on camera: the Peruvian spatuletail hummingbird, described as about the size of a fluffy ping pong ball, has been filmed by the BBC in full for the first time.

A marvellous hummingbird display By Matt Walker Editor, Earth News

The spatuletail hummingbird is among the most rare and striking of birds.
By using a high speed camera, a BBC natural history film crew was the first to capture the mating sequence in super slow motion. The crew also filmed a male advertising in front of a female, and solved a mystery of how the male birds make a snapping sound during the display.

More Exploding Testicles

Spiders sacrifice genitals to ensure paternity
Friday, 9 March 2007

Sarah Bartlett
Cosmos Online

SYDNEY: Male wasp spiders allow part of their genitals to snap off and lodge in their female partner during sex - impeding other males attempts to mate with her.

The group of German researchers who conducted the study think that the males' behaviour means that their own sperm receives less competition for fertilising their partner’s eggs.

The males have to make their copulation count; female wasp spiders (Argiope bruennichi) usually end their 25-second sexual encounters by attacking and devouring the smaller male, meaning that he generally gets only one chance to pass on his genes.

Researchers had previously shown that 80 per cent of the time, males leave part of their genitals wedged in the females sexual orifice, said Gabriele Uhl of the University of Bonn.

But it had been unclear, she said, whether the spiders, native to central Europe, were simply hurrying to escape, or if their behaviour was a deliberate attempt to sabotage attempts to mate with further males later on.

Male spiders don't have a penis. Instead, they secrete semen into a mass of special silk, and then dip a form of specially adapted leg known as pedipalps into it. These pedipalps are used to transfer semen to the female during sex, and are the appendages that wasp spiders leave broken off in their partners.

By observing many spider matings in the laboratory, Uhl and her colleagues from Bonn and the University of Hamburg found thatwhether a males' genitals snapped off or not had no significant effect on his survival rate. But they found that it did make a significant difference on the success of subsequent matings.

When the pedipalps were left wedged in place in the female’s duct, subsequent matings were an average of just 8 seconds long - less than half the length of matings when the females were unimpeded. Additionally, males copulating with females whose ducts had been plugged were much less successful in breaking off their own genitals.

The team - who reported their findings recently in the U.K. journal Behavioural Ecology - have also shown that other wasp spiders also employ the same mechanism. “We presume that genital mutilation only makes sense if there is hardly any chance of further copulation anyway,” said Uhl - the males sacrifice everything in their one chance of passing on their genes.

"This exciting discovery brings another twist to the evolution of sexual cannibalism," commented behavioural ecologist Marie Herberstein of Macquarie University, in Sydney, Australia, who added that breaking off their pedipalps renders the males sterile.

Broken off pedipalps are not the only structures that male spiders use to interfere with females’ mating encounters. Many are known to use special secretions to create 'mating plugs', a kind of cork they use to block up the female's insemination ducts and prevent further inseminations from rival males.

Herbestein added that sexual cannibalism is common practice in spiders and that in some species, such as the Australia's red-back (Latrodectus hasselti), males actually sacrifice themselves to be eaten during copulation, as female redbacks are much less likely to mate again if they have cannibalised one mate.

Talk about extremes in sexuality and submission.
