Condoms Could Be Better


Tony Max 23rd December 2011



 

    Would you wear a pair of shoes two sizes too small or too large?  Well this is exactly what men are up for when they buy condoms.

 

Ansell, the big condom manufacturer has started putting the size of the condom on the back of their cardboard packets in small hard to read print but not on the foil containing the condom. Most other brands don’t have the size stated either.

 

The size of a condom is the measurement of the radius of the collar, that’s the hard bit of rubber around the opening. Sizes range from about 52mm to 58mm and should give a snug fit.  If a condom is too small it will pinch and feel uncomfortable and will be difficult to put on, too large and it will slide off.

 

The length of condoms is not measured because they stretch; just try blowing one up.  They make fantastic balloons. The hard rubber ring around the opening makes the condom stay on.

 

I can’t understand why the size of the condom is not printed in large clear print on the foil. After trying various brands of non-fitting condoms many give up and that’s just not good for public health.

 

Carlo Le Cat has seen guys at sex parties reach for a condom and throw it away because they either couldn’t tear open the foil or the condom was too small, and after a few attempts giving up on them and joining in the action. The manufacturers could do a better labeling job.




Free Condom Music Drive

Sarah Whyte/Sydney Morning Herald

December 11, 2011

    There are certainties at music festivals - music, lengthy queues and drug searches but free condoms courtesy of the NSW Ministry of Health?

Under the New South Wales Poisons and Therapeutics Goods Act, the NSW government says it will give festival goers over the age of 18 a free promotional pack of condoms at five festivals.

The Government Gazette said the department's Dr Kerry Chant decreed that it would be promoting safe sex at Field Day on New Year's Day, Big Day Out on Australia Day, the Mardi Gras Festival, which starts in February, the Future Music Festival in March and at last week's Sydney Telstra 500 at Sydney Olympic Park.

''Sexually transmitted infections can lead to serious health consequences and condoms are an effective means of preventing infections,'' a departmental spokeswoman said.

''We have previously supported health promotion activities at festivals as part of our efforts to promote safe sex."

In May, safe sex advocates were outraged when the organisers of the largest annual music event in Darwin, Bass In The Grass, banned free condoms.

During the 2000 Sydney Olympics, health officials distributed 70,000 free condoms to visiting athletes, but later said they were ''20,000 short''.




CASINOS NOT SEXY AT ALL

By Tony Max

 13th November 2011

    NSW Gaming Minister George Souris told the press he has ordered the Gaming and Liquor Authority to examine rumours that sex workers are active at the Star Casino in Sydney.

The Star is up for review of its gaming license following extensive renovations finished in October and Sydney’s sex workers have reportedly already popped in to pick up trade.

The entrance and gaming floors are covered by CCTV watching every players move and the movement of customers through the venue. People acting suspiciously are recorded and reports made about their activities. They are so paranoid about sex that any affection shown between players is regarded as potential prostitution that could affect their license.

Security video staff record and report the number plates of cars dropping off young women at the casino deeming the drivers of those cars to be “pimps” according to the Fairfax Press.  This has the Gaming Authority and minister posturing about Prostitution at the Star and getting the management defensive about its ability to ban sex workers from the venue. Both the NSW government and Star management have made casinos a no go area for sex workers as stipulated in the gaming act.

Sex work is legal in NSW but living off the earnings of a sex worker is not. That is the problem for the Casino and government. They think that women being dropped off at the Star are being exploited by ‘pimps’. People in the know have told Sexyoz that Sydney sex workers routinely use drivers they can trust to drop them at venues, not taxis because they are unsafe. There have been many instances of taxi drivers harassing sex workers.


The car drivers are not pimps but guys providing safe transport for the girls at a rate usually lower than a taxi fare.  The drivers drop off the girls and pick them up so they don’t have to stand about on the street.

 


SPEEDO GETS STROPY WITH SPEEDO-GUY

By Tony Max

September 22, 2011

 

    The company Speedo claims that bisexual Speedo guy is tarnishing their golden image of scantily clad backsides and budgie hugging swim wear.

The taut, athletic bodies that Speedo wants to be associated with, doesn’t fit with Speedo guy’s web sites, according to press reports.

And then there are the naughty bits that Speedo wants nothing to do with. That’s the point, Speedos cover the budgies but let them bulge giving us a glimpse of what might be. Speedo yesterday set about dissociating itself from those bodies, found on sexy swimwear websites registered to central coast man Dave Evans, accusing him of trademark infringement. But it’s really all about the budgies getting out. Speedo Guy is really Speedo Gay and this looks to me like a case of homophobia…

In the Federal Court yesterday, the Netherlands and British registered SPEEDO Holdings BV and SPEEDO International Ltd described the efforts their lawyers had taken to serve legal demands on Aussie Speedo gay Dave a self described lover of Speedos all his life and an admirer of men who wear the brand.  

What was at stake, according to Speedo’s legal team is the ''substantial and valuable reputation and goodwill associated with the name and trademark SPEEDO''.

The brand has sold throughout the world after being launched in 1928 and has featured at every Olympic Games since the 1956 Melbourne Olympics. The brand has been worn by a many medal winning athletes. Speedo has sponsored many well-known athletes and the word speedo has entered the language to mean budgie snuggling swimming attire. But their reputation as swim wear giants could be tarnished by this legal action giving the company a mean homophobic reputation.

According to Speedo Ltd,  Speedo Guy has insulted their brand by showing the budgies popping out of their swimwear like rock stars at a concert. Speedo have revealed their true intention to be nothing more than prudes who think the human budgie is too naughty to be associated with them and want to close down Dave’s web sites.

According to the Sydney Morning Herald, the company wants the court to restrain Mr Evans (Speedo Guy), or anyone acting on his behalf, from registering domain names that contain the word Speedo, and that he transfer his existing domains to the company. It is also seeking an unspecified amount of damages under both consumer law dealing with misleading and deceptive conduct, and the Trade Marks Act.

I guess any company has the right to protect its trade names but in this case it looks like overkill especially since the web sites in question are promoting the Speedo brand. Let’s face it the blokes in these web sites look terrific in their speedos.

Anyway judge for yourself if Speedo guy deserves to be shut down: http://www.aussiespeedoguy.net/




EROTIC ASPHYSIATION AINT SEXY


By Tony Max

August 28, 2011


 

    Strangulation for sexual pleasure is a completely stupid behaviour but there are plenty of people out there doing it.  It’s stupid because every time blood flow is reduced to the brain, brain cells die.

 

The side effects of this kind of ‘pleasure’ include panic attacks, dizzy spells, loss of concentration, depression, memory loss and other nasty symptoms as a result of the brain being injured by anoxia – lack of oxygen.

 

There have been some notable cases of death of auto asphyxiation including Michael Hutchence the INXS singer, though his death was recorded as suicide.

 

Erotic solo sex games accidentally kill about six Australians every year. But the figure is probably much higher than this.

 

Research from the University of Adelaide shows that over a seven-year period 42 people were recorded as dying by getting off from self strangulation.

 

Some experts believe the actual number of auto-erotic fatalities could be much higher because many of the deaths are attributed to suicide. Relatives sometimes cover up auto erotic asphyxiation preferring the suicide label for the death of a family member.

 

The BDSM community have a rule and it's this: SAFE, SANE AND CONSENSUAL.

Cutting off your own or your sex partner’s airway is neither safe or sane.

 

If you practice this stupid game get over it, move on and let your brain recover.




PISSOIRS FOR SYDNEY AT LAST

By Tony max 7th April 2011


    Street urinals are coming to Sydney to help stop blokes pissing in the street and about time too.  Sydney is well known for its lack of toilets.

The City of Sydney is to trial temporary public urinals on Friday and Saturday nights starting on April 15th in Kings Cross and Oxford Street to reduce the city's clean-up expenditure costing ratepayers more than $7 million a year.

The cities of London and Amsterdam have successfully used the urinals to cope with late night revellers caught short and Paris is famous for its pissotieres.  I remember my first trip to Paris as a teenager and seeing the pissoires, as we called them, we just had to have a pee in one.

According to the manufacturer of the urinal used in Amsterdam 30 of the units put out each Friday night collect over 10,000 litres of urine by Sunday morning. Four blokes at a time at a time can piss and it has a 450-litre holding tank, enough for about 1500 pees.

The outdoor urinals will be installed at night and removed each Saturday and Sunday morning in Fitzroy Gardens, Springfield Mall and Roslyn Plaza in Kings Cross, and Oxford Square on the corner of Oxford and Riley streets for the duration of the trial.

A spokeswoman for the council said charges for offensive conduct - including public urination - in the inner city had increased by 30 per cent in the past two years. Pissing is of course a natural and normal bodily function and the failure of councils to provide toilets is a disgrace. People should not be penalised for pissing when they need to.

This is another example of Australian authorities needlessly cashing in on the public.


Female Porn Addicts?

By Maureen Matthews

April 2ND  2011

 

Solo sex ... is female consumption of pornography still a taboo?

Q I'm 32, female and in a great relationship. We enjoy sex, are adventurous and satisfy each other's needs. But I think I'm addicted to porn. I have no issue with my boyfriend watching it, and sometimes we'll watch it together, but now I'm accessing porn every time I get a moment to myself. I don't orgasm easily during sex but find it fun and fulfilling. However, when I watch porn (often full-on videos of girl/girl and quite degrading hetero images), I can orgasm very easily. Females watching porn is still a taboo. Is there a problem with it?

A Opinions about the use of pornography range from "It's all bad" to "It's healthy", with feminist, moral, medical and social theories abounding. Whether or not "sex addiction" even exists (outside of a tiny group of sex offenders) is still a matter for debate. Certainly, women are accessing porn more and more, especially as they can look at it in private, and I'm not sure that it is still taboo.

Melbourne sex therapist Lynda Carlyle says that your ease of orgasm while watching porn (compared with during sex) is not uncommon. When you watch porn alone you can stimulate yourself how you want, in whatever position you want, and in maximum comfort. You can focus on the desired sensations and on visual stimuli. You can watch the material that gets you off without worrying about your partner's interests, or what he might think about what you enjoy. Self-pleasuring is rarely seen as "cheating", or detracting from the core relationship, and the absence of guilt, shame and self-consciousness leads to easier, more frequent orgasms.

Often the more taboo something seems, the more sexually arousing it is, and most people slip into an objectifying frame of mind when viewing porn, not thinking about the actors as people to be considered.
During partner sex there is often not much explicit verbal communication. There can be "boring" periods because you don't say what you want when you want it. Being considerate of your partner's pleasure can be distracting from your own, or a partner may not quite "hit the spot" with stimulation, but you don't want to appear critical.

Sometimes the urge to view porn increases for some people as they get into a feedback-loop of pleasure, and it can become obsessive. That's where self-discipline comes in. Just as with junk food, alcohol, gambling or any other activity, when you feel your level of use is interfering with your life and relationships, take responsibility and moderate your use to what you find is reasonable. If you find this difficult, don't relinquish responsibility by labelling yourself an addict; rather, seek professional help.

KESHA'S IN TOWN
By Tony Max 14 March 2011


    Californian music composer and sexee entertainer Kesha is doing a tour in Australia and drawing loud tut-tut sounds from the Aussie press much like press criticism of rock performers of the 1960’s.

            Kesha is just tooo sexy for the staid Aussie press who are too nice to know about swearing and sexual innuendo exhibited in the show with a large penis costume and gyrations you only see at the striptease or read about in Canterbury Tales.

            Kasha is an American and like Italians American women like to show their arses even if they are sometimes less than model like in places other than the beach.

            What a better place to shake your arse, do pagan dancing and wank off with a microphone than on stage in front of your fans?

            The fans loved her, the press didn’t. She must be good.



THE BIG PARADE


     As Mardi Gras marchers made a strong stand on getting government recognition of same-sex marriage last night numerous grooms kissing grooms and brides kissing brides marched along Oxford Street in defiance at the inequality of the marriage laws.

The parade theme, Say Something,  where wedding floats showed opposition to the law that gay marriages are NOT recognised stood out in Australia’s biggest parade of the year.

Most Australians (68%) believe that equality in marriage should be available for all Australians regardless of gender.  Gay and lesbian Australians should be treated equally by the law and the Prime Minister is called upon to end discrimination in the marriage act.

Same-sex marriage is legal in countries like Iceland, South Africa, Sweden, England and Spain. To name a few.

Up to 300,000 spectators from Australia and overseas are expected to have turned out for the celebrations, which snaked up Oxford Street and into Flinders Street before finishing at Moore Park.



Dr Droop In Trouble

January 30, 2011

 

    The Australia Postman is delivering junk mail for a company in trouble over its claims to cure impotence while also delivering junk mail about the impotence causing drug ethanol disguised as wine and beer.

The small black envelopes, marked ''Adults Only'', are being delivered during school holidays on behalf of the erection company Advanced Medical Institute. Whilst the glossy ethanol drug ads have no covering or warnings.

The black envelopes contain a brochure about men’s sex problems, including premature ejaculation and impotence, and carry phrases like ''Rev up your sex drive at any age''. Apparently it doesn’t say stop drinking.

AMI is in voluntary administration and under investigation by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission about claims it makes to promote its treatments.

It has already been criticised by prudes and ethanol users for its ''Longer Lasting Sex'' advertisements on roadside hoardings and on radio.

the Australia Postman says it does not know the details of the material he delivers because he is not privy to the contents of black envelopes but he will investigate them if a complaint is made.  One complaint was recently received but the material was legal. There is nothing he can do about the impotence causing drug ethanol being advertised through the post because that is legal too.

AMI's controversial owner, Jacov Vaisman, nicknamed Dr Droop, has had a long and colourful history with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission.

Tomorrow the ACCC watchdog begins its latest action against Mr Vaisman, his company and two of AMI's doctors, charging that they had engaged in 'unconscionable conduct'.

That conduct was AMI's practice of signing up blokes to lengthy treatment that costs thousands of dollars but failing to tell them that they could only get their money back after they tried all AMI's products, including penile injections.

In 2004, the watchdog successfully prosecuted AMI for engaging in deceptive and misleading behaviour when it hired Ian Turpie to say that his impotence had been cured by AMI's nasal spray. The former game-show host was forced to admit his claims were false.”

When ACCC officers charged into Mr Vaisman's office in Sydney early last year they discovered Mr Vaisman's training manuals, which instructed sales staff in the best methods to sell to clients.

'AMI patients are mostly fairly insecure individuals' who would be likely to have 'quite low self-esteem', some of the documents said. It is not known how much ethanol clients consumed before starting treatment to get their erections back.

In its latest row with AMI and Mr Vaisman, the ACCC is seeking to ban him from having anything to do with AMI, or similar companies, for seven years.

Sexyoz Doctor recommends this treatment for impotence, premature ejaculation and to increase sperm count:

Stop smokin' and boozing. Eat only fresh foods - no trans fat. Do Yoga incuding for the penis. Boing!

 


Smart Phones Dumbed Down For Indonesia

January 22, 2011


    BlackBerry smartphone service providers in Australia’s neighbour, Indonesia,  have been forced to weed out sexually explicit material from their networks after the Indonesian government gave Blackberry an ultimatum to introduce sex filters or be banned from selling  the phones.  Blackberry caved in to the demands but had been holding out against censorship.

The filter is believed to be a world first for BlackBerry and comes as Indonesian authorities struggle with people using sexually explicit material, much of it shared via mobile phones.

The filter is part of a broader crackdown on porn in Indonesia which has the world's largest Muslim population but is a secular country known for its moderate interpretation of religion.

The government says its efforts to ban pornography is needed to protect youth but critics deride it as arbitrary, highly politicised interference and a worrying indication of the growing influence of neurotic Islamists who hate sex.

A two-year prison term was imposed just last year on the editor of Playboy magazine, a local toned-down version of the glossy which featured relatively modest photos of women in lingerie.

The pop singer Ariel, is also being prosecuted and could face a long prison term after homemade videos of his love-making were stolen from his laptop and widely distributed via smartphones.

Pushing censorship is the conservative Communication Minister, Tifatul Sembiring, a senior figure in the Islamist Prosperous Justice Party. ''Tifatul Sembiring thanks God that the pornography content filtering process carried out by RIM on its BlackBerry service has started successfully,''  a press release posted on the ministry's website on Thursday.

Mr Sembiring attracted media attention last year when he was freaked out having to shake hands with Michelle Obama.

A spokesman for Mr Sembiring said the sex filter would not prevent BlackBerry users accessing pornography. Technically it cannot filter all porn sites otherwise it would disrupt the Internet.

BlackBerry users will still be able to share sexy photos and videos via email and through social networks on the Internet. Indonesians are the second biggest users of Facebook in the world, with more than 32 million members. Twitter is also popular.

The prominent Indonesian feminist Julia Suryakusuma described the porn crackdown as ''moral panic'' and a ''policy of distraction'' at a time when there is seething public anger about entrenched corruption.

''How can you regulate or legislate against desire?'' she asked. ''Tifatul is one of those people in the government who is making a mockery of governance in Indonesia.''
