Wishing I had more of asample so I could decide where I stood, so to speak. Although there is a real issue in the disability community in re devotee-ism. Which some people condemn completely, esp. abuse survivors. But I think it could be okay to have sex with a crip devotee as long as "I could do anything I want to you and you can't get away!" isn't the sole basis of our relationship. But I've never actually met somebody who told me that, despite hearing they are as common as dirt.

What you find in Sweden (and other Nordic countries and the Netherlands) is unusually high levels of self-reported satisfaction with ordinary sexual practices. People like their vanilla sex. If works for them. So saying that people who are happy with vanilla sex are Swedish-like makes some sense.
Right, France has one of the highest sexual-satisfaction rates in Europe with heterosexual couples reporting vaginal penetration 98% of the time and a high disapproval (or denial) of masturbation.
ETA: Between this and Movies, I am all about the French fucking today.

Let's pick on the Finns. I don't want to think about my grandparents' sex life. Even if they are long dead.
In other news, I somehow managed to score a haircut appointment for tomorrow. That never happens. Usually Alison is booked up a couple weeks in advance for saturday haircuts, with a lot of people on the waiting list. I figured I'd have to survive another couple weeks. I just got really really lucky and someone cancelled right before I called and A gave me the slot. Woohoo! Following a stylist through 3 salons and several counties has its perks.

I swear that somewhere I've read that the change happened as gay porn become big business. So I think Peter North was just part of a general trend; gay porn led to more attractive men in the business. And around the same time the home video market exploded, so appealing to female consumers became more of a priority.
Strega, your knowledge base is a thing of awesome beauty and power.

Heh. Thanks! I'm sort of annoyed because I have no idea where I picked that up.
Oh, it might be from a Susie Bright essay. That sounds plausible, at least.

That doesn't qualify as "other news" for me.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
This whole conversation is worth it just to add "get your bork on" to the lexicon.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
