French in uproar over oral sex anti-smoking posters

A french advertising company has sparked controversy over an anti-smoking campaign featuring a young girl being shown to apparently be made to perform fellatio, at the hand of an older man; but with a cigarette between her lips in place of the obvious.

Other posters in the campaign also show teenage boys in the same predicament. The images are under the caption,

"Smoking is to be a slave to tobacco."

The campaign was designed on behalf of a pressure group who wish to protect the rights of non-smokers. The aim being to shock in order to cut the rate of 13 to 15 year-olds taking up smoking in France. It has been described as 'scandalous' by feminist and pro-family groups.

At the risk of sounding facetious, surely they are over-looking one vital point; smoking makes your cum taste like crap... wanna get more head? Lay off the cigs! >>> Sorry :p x

.xxx domains on the horizon?

So, you have a xxx rated site, how would you like a .xxx domain to match?

It may soon be a possibility, XBiz reports. Following a legal battle costing in the region of $3 million, and over six years of work, it was ruled that ICANN, who have on three previous occasions blocked the application for the new domains, violated their own charter and have no real reason to forbid the .xxx suffix. There has been suggestion that the US Commerce Department were involved behind the scenes and that ICANN probably were swayed by government interests.

No surprises there then.

ICM Registry plan to have the domains on sale by the end of the year. Over 100,000 domains have already been reserved.

The annual cost for the new domains would be $60, $10 of which would go to child protection groups. Sites would also be made to label their content as adult. Seems to me, a great plan - trying to sweep the issue under the carpet as ICANN have done, will not remove a 'problem' (problem in the eyes of the US government perhaps?) - it will only push it further into the shadows creating more trouble than it solves. This way, everything is clear and upfront and if it goes some way to help fund child protection then all the better for it. I wont argue with that.

You may note I'm avoiding the 50 Cent / Tiger Woods type stories. Not my style - sorry. There's plenty of that out there if that's your cup of tea. It's just not mine.

Anyway... till next time;

That's all folks!

HNT*?

For a while I have considered jumping on the HNT bandwagon, but I have hesitated. This is mainly because of some of the 'rules/guidelines' may not work with my site. The main one being to keep it special and only post these pics on HNT. With the nature of my blog this may not always be possible as there are times when the pictures are needed for other posts.

SO... I have decided to post anyway, but we'll not call it an official HNT. How does that sound?

At the request of Mistress Cara...

Your wish is my command... ;) x

A touch of class...

There are many fantastic choices for sex toy materials out there now, including silicone, metal and even wood. In fact even the more traditional types have improved immensely with the removal of nasty toxic substances once a staple in the industry and newer, smooth as velvet finishes and coatings.


There is a material though which I believe deserves a special mention, if nothing else to allay the concerns some people have.

This material is completely non toxic and body safe - good even for those with allergies to various compounds and chemicals.

It is also environmentally friendly, and if looked after should last you a lifetime.

It can be made into all manner of shapes to suit the needs of any toy enthusiast - dildos; straight, curved or knobbly, Ben-WA balls, beads and butt plugs.

It can be warmed or cooled for a variety different sensations.

It gives a weight to the toy which many other materials lack and adds to the sensations, exaggerating the feels, especially int he anal toys.

Despite many misguided beliefs, it is extremely strong and safe.

It is fast becoming an affordable option, with very good quality toys available from £15-£20. Amazing value as these beauties are made to last.

It is... Glass.
(They can even vibrate too now)

In the unforgettable words of Bonny Hall over at www.lovehoney.co.uk glass sex toys are

"Sexy, sophisticated and cooler than a Fox's glacier mint"

You know what? she is so right!

In the past they have been expensive and there have been poorly made version out there which weren't so safe. Now though it is so easy to find beautiful, stunning, safe glass toys at seriously good prices. They have brought a touch of luxury to the affordable and mid range of the market making them access able to more people than ever before.

But what is the fuss about?

At first glance you would be forgiven for assuming such a hard, solid object would be somewhat limited in the versatility stakes. I disagree. Glass is simple and safe to heat or cool in warm, or iced water. It retains it's temperature for a long time making it a perfect choice for temperature play. Why not try alternating between two - one hot one cold for some amazing sensations. Particularly fun with a blindfold and a helpful partner...

I'd suggest the Tracey Cox Supersex Glass Dildo Set as a good staring point. Amazing quality and gorgeous to look at, in this set you get two fantastic glass dildos suitable for both vaginal and anal play. Beautifully presented too, perfect for valentines eh? *hint*

Modern, good quality glass toys are also a very safe choice. Not only toughened to make them very hard to break, they are made of safety glass which does not shatter into sharp shards if the worst did occur. I have many of these toys though, and yes some have been dropped once or twice and are still 100^% intact and flawless. It makes sense of course to always inspect for any scratches chips or cracks just to be safe. Doing this each time you clean them (which is also a doddle to do, another benefit of glass) and careful storage should mean they last you indefinitely. Asa note, all the glass toys I have purchased from LoveHoney have come with their own cute velvet storage pouch. Ideal for keeping them clan and ready to go when wanted, but I have to admit with objects this beautiful it almost seems a shame to hide them away.





My top five glass toys:

1. LoveHoney Waver Orgasmic Glass Dildo 8 Inch
So pretty and very versatile - this is equally goods used anally or vaginally - or anywhere else you fancy. Cute girly colour too, very pretty. My full review can be found here.

2. LoveHoney Ribbed Orgasmic Glass Dildo 8 Inch
Maybe not as pretty as the others, but this is the one I use most of all, nearly every day. Two different sensations as it is double ended - I particularly like the single balled end for G-Spot play and the ribbed end for anal play, but you'll find your own favourites, this toy wont let you down.

3. LoveHoney Bubblelicious Orgasmic Glass Anal Dildo
A gorgeous mix of butt plug and anal beads, all in smooth, cool glass. Gorgeous!

4. LoveHoney Cosmos Orgasmic Glass Dildo 7.5 Inch
Smooth and oh so pretty, the ends are angled perfectly to catch your G-spot. A perfect example of a basic glass dildo. My full review can be read here.

5. LoveHoney Starter Orgasmic Glass Butt Plug
Despite the name, this isn't really ideal for starters, but my god is it good! Once you're confident with butt plugs, this is a must have. Once again my review can be read here.


These are just some of my glass toys, but to list them all would take forever so I selected five of the best, with something (hopefully) for everyone.

If you are not yet convinced, I can only say, give it a go. You wont be sorry :)
