- Finding Marty Rimm (Fortune)
20 years ago, Rimm’s study of online porn made the cover of Time Magazine and put the Net on a collision course with Congress. Then he disappeared. […] The ruckus that followed publication of Time’s Cyberporn cover has been well documented. The incident was newspaper and magazine fodder for much of the summer. It was assigned reading in journalism schools as an essay topic in ethics classes—invariably as an example of what not to do. Hotwired created the “Philip Elmer-DeWitt Award for Bad Internet Reporting,” for which I remain the only recipient.
An interesting take on what happens when a shitty research study on a hot button topic like online porn can have a huge effect years after it was published. This thing changed lives, careers, legislation, and it was all crap. What a shit show.
Day by day, second by second, time is destroying your vulva. Your labia are deflating like a sad soufflé. Your vagina is drying up. The color is draining from your genital region. Your husband is weeping. Your dinner is burning. Your life is a farce.
Enter the Lowe Aurora, a sex toy providing“low-level laser treatment” for your genitals. For your “health.” Of course. More like a massive laser pointer created solely to make you feel bad about your vulva. It’s like someone thought to themselves, how can we combine crushing beauty standards and sex toys?
Not all sex toys are created equal. Some of them are created by the patriarchy to make you feel like shit while spending a lot of money for absolutely no good reason. Thanks for ruining orgasms, Lowe Aurora.
- I Was A Professional Sperm Donor (Hopes & Fears)
I HAVE 32 KIDS. Officially confirmed. That’s 28 boys and four girls.
They were all conceived through the same facility within a three-month period. Right now, they’re probably a little over a year old, a year-and-a-half, 18 months, maybe two years.
One day, I received a call from the center. They were like, “We need you to come in and fill out some paperwork.” To be honest, that was the last thing I wanted to do. But when I went in, they presented me with this fucking fat check. I was like, “What’s this?” They told me that I was the biological father of 20 kids. I was like, “Shut up.” And they’re like, “Nope. You have 16 boys and four girls.” Since then, I’ve supposedly sired twelve more boys. So, I’m genetically predisposed to having males. Apparently, those metrics are extremely useful for the women who subscribe their services, depending on whether they have a preference for the sex of the child. What’s interesting is that most women from overseas, especially from Asia, prefer boys, and many prefer mixed-race children.
Holy Jesus, fucking Christ. That is the weirdest thing I’ve ever read. Imagine having that many rugrats with your DNA running around the world and all you know is that you are predisposed to siring boys, which is apparently a plus in the sperm donating game.
