    The Quake Heard 'Round the Internet, and Her Chest

    Boobquake. The largest natural disaster to shake the willies out of the internet since it was created, thus triggering the voyages of the Star Trek, Jen McCreight. In her voyages, though, she’s found that people like to discuss boobs and they like boobquake because it gives them the opportunity to discuss boobs. This was all

    Skepticism: Tits or GTFO?*

     

    I hate writing about feminist issues, because every time I do I get accused of being a feminazi or caring more about women than men, or of buying into victim culture, or any number of accusations that come with the territory.  Feminism isn’t generally my main issue, and so I’m always

    When Sex Gets in my Apple-Bottomed Jeans (deux)

    You may have already seen my post called When Sex Gets in my Apple-Bottomed Jeans, and you probably noticed that I mentioned that I had more to say about McCreight’s fu-luster-cuck-uck. I discussed the video and talked a little about the aftermath in general terms, but there is much work to be done in

    In news that will shock and confuse dacryphiliacs everywhere, (but make John Boehner more secure in his manhood) scientists have “discovered” that women’s tears DO NOT turn men on.

    Now before you get upset wondering why scientists are trying to figure out the mysterious and elusive male libido instead of, let’s say Continue reading Illogical “Phallusies” – Viewing Scientific Research Through Penis Colored Glasses

    Dictyostelium discoideum is pretty cool...

    Ok, so this week, I am filling in for Sophie, from “Sex and Science”. So, in her honor, I thought I’d kick it with a post about sex.

    Dictyostelium discoideum (from Dan Rhoads at Bitesizebio.com)

    So, if you strip away the boring plumbing aspect of it, sex is,

    The Long Road to a Final Opinion on Prop 8

    Picture from Duncan Riley from the Inquisitr.

    Yesterday was the presentation of the case to the 9th circuit.  Now, it’s not the full 9th circuit, which means that whatever these three judges decide, they may well have to reconvene with the rest of the 9th circuit if whoever loses this round decides to appeal.

    An American Douchebag in Paris -Part 2: Return of the Douchebag.

    Notre-Dame as seen from the South-Eastern side of the île de la Cité.

    An editor of SheThought  came upon this article on Jezebel, and, being the only French guy she had immediately available, asked me what I thought about it… That article, by the way, lead to a few rounds of humorous banter
