The AVN Awards aren't until Saturday, but the AEBN VOD Awards are already handed out. And unlike AVN Award winners, who are chosen by industry professionals, AEBN Award winners are chosen by you, the people! What's that? You don't remember choosing winners for the AEBN VOD Awards? Winners are selected based on the viewing habits of AEBN users (or, in other words, the stars/features/porn that got the most views got the award). But that's not what'...

Who says that pornstars are all boobs and no brains? Well, it certainly wasn't us—we happen to like our pornstars with a whole lot going on upstairs. We usually use Fleshbot Requests to celebrate the superficial—but today we're going to go more than just skin deep, and celebrate some of our favorite pornstars who've got brains as well as beauty. . . . Penny Flame Despite dropping out of college to pursue more prurient interests, Penn...

Monk and I were sitting in the hot tub at Banya5 last night, talking about someone we know who lately started a business selling BDSM gear. It isn't someone either of us know very well, so we can't say if they will succeed in this or not. We certainly wish them good luck. But privately, we tend to be a tad skeptical. It's simply that, over the years, we've both seen a lot of people start kink-related businesses? And then, in a fairly short am...

Image by Skye Shelly. A hugely amount of sex, tech, culture and health (and even sex-impacting legislative) stories are of great importance but never make it to mainstream media, and came in under the radar. In this week’s SF Chronicle I give them these stories their due — and more. My column is titled The Child Porn Lie (And Other Hits): Violet Blue: The top five underreported sex stories of the year, NOT “The Year in Sex̶...

El BDSM es una de las prácticas sexuales denominadas “fetiches“, tal vez, más difundidas.Existen cultores en todas partes del mundo y también espacios especialmente diseñados para estas prácticas. Ahora Barcelona contará también con una propuesta especial para quienes aman el bondage y el sadomasoquismo. Se llama Fetish Café y es un lugar de lo más original. Entérate… (more…)

Rubbergirl is a talented Danish artist living in Copenhagen whose artwork is taking an increasingly fetishistic tone as she explores her fascination with latex and BDSM. In the past year, she has discovered new things about her fetish, and has begun to explore some of the feelings behind the fetish. Newer paintings have become much more graphic in style, with a strong emphasis on black and white. Earlier works focussed on her relationships and th...

Image by urbanphotographer2007. Also — alt image. I’ll admit that I was on Nerve to gratuitously vote for my friend (and talented writer) Paul Festa in their Vote for the Best Nerve Essays of 2008 contest when I perused the other entries — and read the heart-stopping essay by Angela Conner about erotic face-slapping. For me, that’s a distinct “no” in my erotic repertoire, but for Conner it’s something dif...

  Deux photos pour le même thème   Une fois n'est pas coutume, nous allons publier à 5 minutes d'intervalle sur le même thème... Bon, il faut dire que le thème nous est cher : « Maîtresse »... Le terme le plus usité de la langue BDSM... (avec Maître bien sûr, pour les adeptes de la domination masculine)... Mais la vraie raison, c'est que j'ai demandé à Linda de choisir une photo parmi une dizaine que j'avais préalablemen...

  M comme Maîtresse   Caroline : Nous allons parler rhétorique. Maîtresse, voilà un mot pour le moins très employé dans l'univers BDSM. Qu'as-tu à en dire, petite traînée ?   Linda : Oh Maîtresse, ce terme est à n'en pas douter le plus utilisé !   Caroline : Dans ta petite bouche d'esclave, assurément, c'est une façon de montrer ton respect, ta soumission...   Linda : ...Mon amour, ma vénéra...

Get your copy here. It’s not supposed to be on shelves until December 11, but it’s shipping *now* (and I got my hands on a red-hot copy). Best Women’s Erotica 2009 is my newest anthology — explicit lit by women, written by astoundingly talented women from all over the world. It’s so fucking hot that when I read the first story in the collection to my lover, I was instantly jumped and deliciously molested. True story....

What with all that turkey you ate, right about now you're probably saying "I could really use, or watch being used, a canola oil enema." Yes, there is something universal about Thanksgiving. Good thing, too, because while you were spending time with your loved ones on the verge of tears, slave Moxxie Maddron was doing everything she could to keep her relationship with Master Eric Swiss alive, including cleaning the toilet bowl by any means necess...

Fleshbot: First off, why piss? What's erotic about golden showers? Isis Love: Isis loves piss play, so I do what I love. It's taboo and an untouched subject —that's what makes it all the better. FB: Were you always interested in doing a watersports-focused website, or did the idea evolve out of watersports scenes on other sites that you've worked on? IL: I have always played in my personal life and when the thought came up I just went with...
