When you visit Japan, go to all the temples, gardens, theater and other tourists sights listed in your favorite guidebooks. Once you're done with all the high culture and G-rated, family-friendly goodness, make some time for lowbrow comparative...

Karaoke.
Karaoke in fetish wear—eight ex-pat internationals in leather, corsets, latex and evening gowns, crammed in a small imitation Chinese cave, just one of many such rooms stacked along and atop one another, singing loudly, horridly and...

All Hallows Eve is over, but the vampire blood lust intensifies as the days leading to New Moon’s premier draws closer. It was a year ago that Twilight hit the big screen with reluctant teen idol Robert Pattinson as the brooding vampire...

It gets harder and harder to shock me anymore, especially with things involving extreme sexuality, fetish wear, cross dressing, and artistic expression of an alternative nature. I've been to every Folsom Street Fair since it started, and I...

Hey sex fans,
As I mentioned at the beginning of Monday’s podcast, over the next two weeks, and on both Mondays and Wednesdays, I will be featuring two absolutely amazing women in my podcasts. Both of these very talented women are taking...

Hey sex fans,
We’re back with some mighty fine Sex EDGE-U-cation, people! As you know, this podcast series takes a look at the world of fetish sex, kink and alternative sexual lifestyles. And today’s guest adds his unique...

I am terrified of getting a sex disease, but I’m kind of confused about how to keep from getting them. People always say to use condoms and they’ll keep you safe, but then I’ve heard they don’t really protect you from herpes and some of the other...

Ah, the wonder and beauty of contemporary culture! Gone are the days when sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) were unheard of and all one needed was a little spit to make it through the night. Pity, but c'est la vie. You do raise the issue around...

I am sorry to say that there has been an unfortunate lull in my sex life recently. The El Rey was a much needed toy, and it was used the moment I got home. The El Rey dildo is quite lifelike, and mine came in the most delicious color ever: chocolate...

Why do people do this? The eternal question, that. In this case, I'd have to chalk it up to mankind's historical and well-documented need to leave no hole unfilled. Not only should no hole be unfilled but every conceivable item must be tried for fit...

I just heard about this sexual practice that totally confuses me. Why on earth would you want to stick raw ginger up your butt? Do they also stick it up their twats, too? I don't get it! A friend who is way kinkier than I am told me the practice is...

Certainly it's possible to find someone online for a night or for a lifetime — in fact, I met my partner through an e-mail discussion group in the late 1980s, well before the advent of the web!
There's really no best answer about where to look,...

Recently I interviewed director Maria Beatty for the upcoming issue of Filmmaker magazine. Best known for the lesbian BDSM movies she's been creating for the past decade and a half, Beatty and I discussed the challenge that awaits every growing and...
