The Porn Supremacy
Hollywood actor, Matt Damon, thinks most porn movies are badly written and wants to do something about it. Damon has said he wants to make a character-driven porn with an intellectual plot. “It’s all going to be about the character and the porn’s going to grow out of the characters and serve as character development,” says Damon. That’s all very well, but I hope the lovely Matt is not going to confine his talents to being behind the camera.

Glad to be gay? Not in Galway
Gardai in Galway have closed down “Club Outrageous”, a primarily gay night held monthly at the city’s Black Box Theatre. The night, which featured performance art, including simulated lesbian sex, was deemed too lewd for the City of Tribes. The closure comes after members of the Gardai, in their capacity as private citizens, complained.

Glasgow calls for curbs on lap dancing clubs
A study commissioned by the Glasgow City Council has prompted calls for the city’s lap dancing clubs to be more closely monitored and to be licensed as sex shops. Under current legislation the clubs are licensed as part of the leisure industry. The study alleges that dancers are humiliated, told to dress “like sluts”, and that employment legislation is regularly breached. In addition, the study suggests that many of the dancers are in debt and thus pressured into sexual relations with customers.

No toe-licking please, we’re Dutch
Police in the Netherlands have arrested a foot fetishist for unsolicited toe licking – but were forced to release him, as there is no law banning the activity. The 35-year-old was caught after a three-year ‘reign of terror’, and subsequently released without charge. Now the minority Dutch Labour Party reckons something has to be done to address the scourge and are calling for new legislation. Yep, it’s good to know that our elected officials are keeping an eye on the plagues of modern society.

Lies, damn lies and statistics
I love surveys, and I found some great ones on www.cliterati.com. Here’s some interesting statistics according to their polls.
Nearly 25% of women would have plastic surgery on their genitals, while most popular sexual fantasies are lesbian sex (23%), group sex (17.24%) and sex with a stranger (12%). The least popular fantasy at less than 2% is being paid, or paying for sex.

This weeks top sex tip - The Butterfly, a sure fire position for the girls
If you are in the mood for high-impact orgasmic bliss, and let’s face it, why wouldn’t you be, the Butterfly position makes for a super sexy encounter without needing bags of energy.
The trick to getting the Butterfly right is lining up correctly with your partner. You need a highish area for this to work, so if your bed is too low, try a desk, kitchen counter or car bonnet instead. With your partner standing in front of you, sit down on the chosen surface. When you are sitting, your pelvis should be approximately a foot lower than your partners.
Lift your legs and rest your feet on your partner’s shoulders.
Tilt the pelvis upwards so that your back forms a straight line angling up towards your bloke, and so that your genitals meet.
The angle is the important thing here, so ask your partner to hold you under the hips to keep you in position while he is thrusting in and out.
The great thing about this position is that the pelvic tilt allows for deep penetration and G-spot stimulation. Try simultaneously stimulating your clitoris with your hands, for extra pleasure. Go on, be a devil…
