As those who have read this blog closely know, I came of age sexually between 1959 and 1963. One of the highlights of that process was discovering a stash of Playboy magazines in a rental house we lived in which was owned by some Navy flyers. For the first time in my young life I saw beautiful “nekkid women” in the glossy pages of those forbidden magazines. I felt as if I had stumbled upon all the riches of Araby.
I don’t usually post to photos on sources other than Flickr. Today we make an exception. Here is a marvelous vimeo slideshow of Playboy centerfolds from the fifties and sixties. My memory is foggy so I couldn’t pick which of these magnificent women were in that first batch that keep me up late that night (I probably wasn’t looking at their faces all that closely!)
I learned something today.
Did you know that the vibrator was the fifth household appliance to be electrified. It was invented in the 1880’s, to treat a medical condition, known either as “congestion of the genitalia” or “Female Hysteria”
From Wikipedia. “For centuries, doctors had been treating women for these illnesses by performing what we would now recognize as masturbation. However, not only did they regard the “vulvular stimulation” required as having nothing to do with sex, but reportedly found it time-consuming and hard work”
Those poor doctors!! I can just see it now.
“Another Doctor’s bill darling? Are you unwell, that’s the fourth time this week!”
“I know sweetheart, I am feeling a little poorly, but the Doctor works hard, and I do feel better after seeing him”
“Well what does he do to you?”
“Stimulates my vulva and genitals, until I feel a release of tension.”
“Rather him than me, poor hard-working bastard…”
Again, from Wikipedia: The home versions soon became extremely popular, with advertisements in periodicals such as Needlecraft, Woman’s Home Companion, Modern Priscilla, and the Sears, Roebuck catalog. These disappeared in the 1920s, apparently because their appearance in pornography made it no longer tenable for polite society to avoid the sexual connotations of the devices.
Awesome!! I laughed a lot during this article!!
There are links also to Wank Week. I think that this event is worthy of inclusion in the Olympics! Have a read, it is wonderful stuff!! Absolutely Gripping!!
Let me know if you are interested in participating in Wank Week, and we will see if can set something up.

Snooki Finds a Boyfriend
Saturday February 6, 2010
SnookiSnooki might not have found love (or even a one night stand) at the Jersey Shore, but the unlucky-in-love reality star has finally found a guy to call her own.
Snooki dished to Radar Online that she has a new man who will accompany her to the yet-to-be-decided location of Jersey Shore 2.
“He is actually a body builder and works at the gym,” she gushed. “He is just like my typical guido juicehead with like a good personality.”
We’re so happy that Snooki found the juicehead…err, man of her dreams. And we can’t wait to see this guy she speaks so highly of. “We’re the sexiest couple I have ever seen in my entire life,” she said.
We also hope Snooki’s new boyfriend is cool with the rumors of her sex tape and nude photos. Interesting way to start a relationship.
After I posted the link to the Michael Sheen / Ashley Greene interview yesterday I had a closer look at it myself again. That’s when I saw the photos I had unsuccessfully tried to forget about. So now I feel like I finally got to say it out loud. Ashley Greene, what happened to you?
There was a time when I could look at pictures of you for hours thinking all the time “Oh how I wish this was me. How I wish I would look like that…”. Those super classy subtly sexy photoshoots you did, awesome. But what happened then? I don’t know. You tried to cover up the fact that you were in fact naked in during the SoBe photoshoot by talking about Skinsuits. We mentioned that we wondered where the hell your nipples had gone though and tadah, there they are again next to Michael Sheen’s interview with you. I try to avoid the word slutty here but those Interview Magazine pics really kinda remind me of a Dom themed Playboy photoshoot.
