Whoops, getting more graphic

Needless to say, the subject of my quotes has veered away from douche bags and has settled somewhere between social criticism and our societies hang ups with sex and pornography. Go figure. I suppose sometimes it is easier to start a discussion about sexuality when it is staring you right in the face.

Roger Horrocks wrote a book called Male Myths and Icons: Masculinity in Popular Culture. I read the chapter regarding pornography  and it was indeed compelling. I will likely round up my thoughts regarding this chapter at a later date. Perhaps tomorrow. Perhaps not.

The first penis



That is, the first penis that I've inked and put up.  Healthy sexuality. Whooooooooooooooo

Anyway, the woman I quoted writes for a site called www.amplifyyourvoice.org and has a column entitled "Yes Means Yes." I only read the article that I drew the quote from, but I recommend reading it, as it greatly mirrors my opinion regarding the split personality of American media regarding the overt sexuality of grown women and the purity myth of young and teenage girls. Anyway. That's that.

Also, I wonder if showing penis-vagina penetration will get me my first flag. If I haven't been already.
