Beware: Necrophiliac Paramedics!
If Dan is killed on his way to work and his lifeless body is raped by a necrophiliac paramedic, it's JTA's fault. You read it here first.

Polyamory as an Identity
Many people in polyamorous relationships identify as "being" polyamorous, but Dan doesn't. In this blog post, he tries to understand how polyamory is an identity for some, but not for others, and explains why it isn't one for him.

The L-Word
I just thought I'd put some feelers out not for the first time, but for the first time online, to see if my theory is true that I am only only man in the known universe who enjoys the (now-finished) Showtime drama series The L-Word. If I'm not, will somebody let me know!
I have an … -
Amateur Lesbians
I've recently reformatted and reinstalled, and that means that - briefly - I ended up seeing advertisements on the Internet again, until I had my ad-blocker reinstalled. And so I came to see an advertisement that promised to let me see "amateur lesbians".
Now you and I both know perfectly well what they mean, but I've … -
Kiwi Evolution
A discussion at SmartData this morning:
Dan: (eating a kiwi fruit) So why are kiwis hairy?
Gareth: To give insects something to cling onto?
Dan: Like "kiwi headlice"? But to what purpose? How does that benefit the plant?
Gareth: Well, then maybe it's to make them look even more like gonads.
Dan: Heh. But again, to what purpose?
Gareth: To … -
BiCon 2009
This weekend, I was at BiCon 2009 (my third BiCon - I guess that makes it a tradition), and it was awesome. Here's a short summary of the highs and lows:

Coming out to my mother as bisexual was something I thought about for years before finally taking the plunge. Braced for tears and recriminations, I was amazed and pleased to be greeted only with love and support.
Which was why telling her I was poly remains one of the most difficult things I've … -
How to be Mono-Friendly
Freaksexual just wrote a fantastic blog post (as usual) instructing monogamous people "How to be Poly-Friendly". It's an excellent little post about the kinds of faux pas it's easy to make without even thinking about it, and while it's very obviously targetted at monogamous folk who have polyamourous friends or lovers, I couldn't help but …

Toilets With Urinals? Toilets Without Urinals?
Remember this picture I took at BiCon this year?
Looks like as a concept it's going to become not-so-strange, according to a report in Metro: University students open trans-gender toilets. -
BiCon Fun And Games
It's been hard to find time to post a blog entry here, with everything that's been going on. Here's the quick rundown so far:

Orgasms And Biochemistry
Just read a great article on brain activity during sexual stimulation and specifically upon orgasm: scanning people's brains while they're engaged in sexual activity with their partners has lead to some fascinating results. From the article:
In men, greater activity was seen in the insula, which deals with emotion, and particularly in the secondary somatosensory … -
