Few people realize that pornography is a $10+ billion-a-year industry, making it more profitable than all three major American sports combined. Another thing that even few people realize is that the people profiting the most from pornography aren’t guys like Larry Flint, but rather guys like Ted Turner. Here are five industries that rake in tons of cash from porn (but leave it off their annual report).  (more…)

We had the opportunity to get a few quick questions to porn star/indie flick sweetheart, Sasha Grey, so we took it. The 21-year-old naughty hottie is one of the most sought-after actresses in the adult industry, having won the 2008 AVN Award for “Female Performer of the Year”. On top of her porn career, Sasha has modeled for American Apparel and loads of artists, like James Jean and David Choe. She also has a budding carreer in indepependant cinema, having already appeared in horror/comedy, Smash Cut and Steven Soderbergh’s, The Girlfriend Experience. (more…)

Just when we were starting to wrap our heads around the wonders that high-definition, 1080p Blu-Ray porn had in store for us, along comes the next and logical advancement in the world of hyper-realistic erotica: 3D porn!

Who do we have to thank for this groundbreaking new technology? Some guy from Hong Kong named Stephen Shiu Jnr. He’s pouring 30 million Hong Kong dollars (about $4 million US) into 3D Zen and Sex, which is said the first 3D porno ever. Shiu hopes that the prospect seeing lots of 3D sex and boobs will lure porn enthusiasts — normally a reclusive bunch — to theaters in droves. Of course, we’d obviously rather watch porn all alone in our dark apartment, but the prospect of an entire theater going “Duck! He’s blowing his load right at us!” in unison is way too exciting to pass up. (more…)

Many of you would feel like a little kid run amok in a candy shop if you ever had a chance to spend a day on a porn set. Never fear, I–your trusty blogger– got to spend an afternoon in an industrial section of North Hollywood, across from a sheet-metal shop on a porn set. So here are 5 things I learned you can do on a porn set besides getting naked or having sex with one of the porn stars. (more…)

If you haven’t already gone, you have to visit a sex shop. They are full of interesting toys, books, and movies. You’re in college to learn and sex should be part of your education. One wants to know how to do it well, and the resources found at sex shops can help you achieve top performance in the bedroom. Think of sex shops as the sex educational library, except these books and movies you can’t return, but who would want to do that?

I have been going to sex shops since I was eighteen. I have taken several friends on their maiden voyages to the sex shop. We walk the aisles, discussing the hilarious titles of porn and commenting on how extreme the toys can be. Through my extensive research I have composed some guidelines to successfully navigating a sex shop.

First Recorded Heavy Metal Devil Horn

On Saturday night, as part of a pornography-themed day, Sex Week at Yale held a porn screening in the Law School auditorium. The featured pornography was a series of trailer-type clips, chosen by director Paul Thomas from among his own films.

The Sex Week team, however, didn’t preview all the footage Thomas chose. This is why, partway through the showing, graphic rape fantasies began to play onscreen. <Full Story>

Exchange Student Starved While in Egypt

Jonathan McCullum was in perfect health at 155 pounds when he left last summer to spend the school year as an exchange student in Egypt. But when he returned home to Maine just four months later, the 5-foot-9 teenager weighed a mere 97 pounds and was so weak that he struggled to carry his baggage or climb a flight of stairs. Doctors said McCullum was at serious risk for a heart attack.

McCullum says he was denied sufficient food while staying with a family of Coptic Christians, who fast for more than 200 days a year, a regimen unmatched by other Christians. But he does not view the experience as a culture clash. Rather, he said, it reflected mean and stingy treatment by his host family, whose broken English made it difficult to communicate. <Full Story>

The RIAA War on Ohio U. – one year later

As the recording industry’s nationwide legal battle against college music sharers enters its second year, Ohio University — once ground zero in that campaign — is no longer under fire.

Identified last February by the recording industry as the recipient of more music sharing complaints than any other university, OU shelled out more than $75,000 last summer for a device that scans data crisscrossing its network for copyrighted media. <Full Story>

Students at U of Nevada Turn to Pepper Spray, Stun Guns

One week after Brianna Denison disappeared, the culture at the University of Nevada, Reno changed. Groups of women walk together at night, instead of individually with iPods. Self-defense classes draw dozens of people. And, more contentiously, 22-year-old political science major Kimberly Ramirez isn’t the only one sporting a 950,000-volt Firefly stun gun and a can of pepper spray. <Full Story>

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?
