In 1970, photographer George Gardner invited me to join him on a trip to photograph Mardi Gras madness in New Orleans. We drove there in George's old Pugeot, and slept in the car for a week. It...

Are you a good sexual citizen of the world?

If that creepy guy down the street made an information video on the age of consent, this is what it would probably look like (that or this is a secret NAMBLA training video that escaped to the web...

I have a huge problem with the ever-increasing use of the word "play" to describe both BDSM activities and sex acts in the BDSM community. "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what...

I've always been a tad suspicious of secretly queer homophobes who get outed, only to then morph, hey presto, into crusaders for gay rights.
Take Roy Ashburn, for instance. As we all no doubt...

I am an unabashed meat eater. Now don't get me wrong, that does not mean I'm an unethical meat eater. Just like I believe it's possible to be an ethical slut, I also feel it's possible to be a...

Why do smart, strong, feminist women get hot for rogues and Lotharios, sexy but selfish bad boys who use women and throw them away?
The new season of Mad Men is upon us: the brilliant, beautiful...

I heard the song on the radio before I saw the video. I was deeply unnerved when I heard Rihanna's voice singing, "Just gonna stand there and watch me burn. But that's alright because I like the...

In the fall of 1966, I started taking nude photos of neighborhood girls in my East Village tenement apartment. My favorite model was Suzy, the cute Italian-American babe who lived across the street...

Implications for Modern Times
World history, as seen through the eyes of a sexologist, could be viewed as a massive, continuous stomping of sex-positive people and cultures by sex-negative ones....

For those of you that need a midday break, take a bite out of this sweet man-candy montage highlighting the hotness of the True Blood men. There's enough sex appeal in this video to make even the...

Anyone who tries to reduce burlesque to nothing more than flaunting nudity onstage is missing the point. Burlesque does involve stripping, but not all stripping is burlesque. The expression of...

“So what do you do?” is a question I get asked a lot at the pub in London. Generally I size the person up and decide how far up the exposure scale I want to go (if you’re curious, from least to...

Way back over a half-year ago, when I started writing for CarnalNation, my very first column, "Marriage, Shmarriage," bemoaned the queer movement's glorification of the bourgeois model of...

In a day and age when persona and product are in demand more than music itself, it is extremely refreshing to see a young (and quickly rising) talent that defies this trend. Janelle Monae, who...

Hollywood is notorious for receiving criticism about the portrayal of sexuality, especially with regard to anything that's even slightly alternative by mainstream standards. Volumes could be (and...

Feeling good and doing good run strongly through both Jiz Lee and Madison Young. Like many others with sex-positive values, we at CarnalNation have been enamored of these two individuals for...

Humor from the Onion: With this week's federal court decision that declared California's Proposition 8 to be unconstitutional, it seems more inevitable than ever that same-sex marriage is going to...
