Sarah Silverman and Matt Damon
She’s frequently annoying and Matt is a god. Good pair? You decide.

A Dutch (who else?) escort agency has announced a service just for virgins. Computer geekdom is the target market. They will provide a three hour (minimum) service during which the participants will explore each others body, take baths together, massage each other, etc. At the end of the sessions, the virgin geeks will come out knowing how to pleasure a woman. Tall order.
Associated Press (AP) was all in a tizzy today, wringing themselves into all kinds of yogic postures in a veritable orgy of back-slapping self-congratulation. The reason? Well, they ignored Paris Hilton for a week. Yes, they did it… those guys. This bout of self-denial was so cleansing to their soul-collective that it was worthy of a news article all on its own. Now, they’re preparing a new list of people or things to ignore and see if people notice. Some of the nominees - North Korea, Barack Obama, and Global Warming. The New Way Forward in Iraq is being considered as well.
None of those bother me, by the way. But this blatant disregard for Paris Hilton really gets my goat. I’m a consumer of news, and if I demand that every time Paris flashes her underwear, I be notified immediately, then news organizations better step up and deliver. As the wise man said - “If Paris flashes, and no one photographs it, does it make a noise?” AP has thrown down the gauntlet, and I propose to take it up. Someone has to take a stand for rich heiresses, and where better than right here on rantlust?
Are we sending a rep to attend the Porn convention (oh okay, Adult Entertainment Expo) in Vegas (where else?)? Wolfman? The BBC refers to the people attending the show as “shameless.” These shameless people are nevertheless laughing all the way to the bank. Apparently, 200 (only?) pornographic movies are shot in the US every week. The adult industry brings in more money to the US economy than Hollywood. It’s a bigger industry than all professional sports in the US… combined. And the maturity of the industry shows in the timing of the show: it’s held the same week as the Consumer Electronics Show. The Ron Jeremys and the Jenna Jamesons are trolling the streets of Sin City at the same time as the Bill Gateses and the Ed Zanders. As for the lucky people attending these shows, they can spend the morning learning the ropes of the latest camcorder at the CES and then head off to the Porn show to see how they can put that camcorder to good use. Symbiosis in action.
That cat’s out of the bag. A study has found that Indian men have small penises. Measurements were made across the board and were taken down to the last millimeter. The BBC article linked to above has the following comment from a Sunil Mehra:
It’s not size, it’s what you do with it that matters
You go Sunil.
Colombian women are using the oldest trick in the book to punish their boyfriends and husbands: refusing sex. They are advocating a sex ban until the men (gang members) give up violence. The strike is aptly called the strike of crossed legs. New way to achieve world peace?
The word auto-sex is something I hadn’t heard before. But now a man in Bratislava, Slovakia, has been arrested after crashing his auto(mobile) while having auto-sex. Got to love the English language. Bloody brilliant, I say!
I admit it. I am one. Why should men get to have all the fun? I watch porn. I go to raunchy clubs. I used to be an exhibitionist in beaches in the south of France. I have done my fair share of naughty behavior in nightclubs. And though I haven’t gone to the extremes of the characters described by Ariel Levy in her wonderful book ‘Female Chauvinist Pigs‘, I surely would love to.
This is a book for the post-feminists. We, who like to think we are finally coming to terms with why our men like porn or strippers. If you can’t beat them, join them, as the cliche goes. Levy is an American living in New York and the book is about how being raunchy and sexy (think Paris Hilton) is the in-thing for the American women. She talks about the wild women of Girls Gone Wild and Playboy. Funnily enough, both of these are run for the most part, by women. The book is well-written but is sure to offend many. This was a present from a friend and I devoured it in a couple of hours non-stop. Even the male dominated rantlust crowd should check it out, if only for sheer voyeurism. I now understand why fleshbot, Jenna Jameson and Jordan are so mainstream these days. Poor old Traci Lords was way ahead of her time.
