Sites We Love: Lurid Digs

Sites We Love: Lurid Digs
Visiting another man’s boudoir is always a dicey affair. At best, his place will have robot servants, a massage oil fountain, and a holodeck. At worst, it’ll have scabies. The long-time web favorite Lurid Digs: Horrifying Gay Amateur Interiors peers into the demented bedrooms of lonely men around the world to show you what you’re (not) missing. Some of the guys are hot, but that’s not the point. Lurid Dig’s web-masters explain:

Despite the popularity of TV shows like Queer Eye For The Straight Guy, the Internet has shattered the gay style myth forever with its slew of nude amateur self-portraits that clog newsgroup bandwidth from New York to Sydney and back again. These Feng Shui-challenged souls have proven over and over again that male homosexuals can be just as color uncoordinated, sloppy and nastee as their straight bretheren — and despite the crippling setback from the Discovery Channel’s token screaming queen, home decor fluffer Christopher Lowell, the gap between what defines gay and straight is slowly beginning to zipper shut.

The photos are great, but even better is the commentary from the bitchy “experts” who pick out disturbing details you might have missed to analyze them and really uncover the “psyche” of these horny men. You can even submit your own photos or jump in on the fun by adding your own commentary. Plus all of the experts also run other LGTBQ blogs that are worth a visit!

IAOOC – BillyBoy

IAOOC - BillyBoy 1
We’re not sure if Billyboy ran track and field for Princeton, but we do know that he’s got manly, athlete’s body with sex to spare. It’s amazing how different a guy can look out of clothes. In his Princeton hoodie and jeans, Billy just looks like some old guy crouching in the snow. But shirtless with facial, he suddenly turns up the heat making us sweat with desire. Oh, he knows how to tease with his hairy pits, muscular torso, and unzipped fly, but the total package promises pleasure to no end!
See BillyBoy’s bod in the buff after the jump!

“I’m a supporter of gay rights. And not a closet supporter either. From the time I was a kid, I have never been able to understand attacks upon the gay community. There are so many qualities that make up a human being… by the time I get through with all the things that I really admire about people, what they do with their private parts is probably so low on the list that it is irrelevant.”

QC FYI: Befuddled By Cancer, Scientists Invent New Erectile Cream

QC FYI: Befuddled By Cancer, Scientists Invent New Erectile Cream
Tired of the theft, near heart attacks, and 10-hour boners normally associated with Viagra? We (and probably a lot of porn stars) sure are! But thanks to some brave scientists who spent moths applying boner cream to tiny rat penises, there may now be a better way… and it involves “nanoparticles!” The Telegraph explains:

Scientists in the United States have successfully tested the new technique—which involves tiny objects called nanoparticles—on rats and believe it could also be used to help humans.

Under the therapy, nanoparticles that release the anti-erectile chemical nitric oxide are rubbed on the problem area, and absorbed directly into the skin.
Of the seven rats treated by the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York, five showed signs of arousal, according to results presented to the American Urological Association (AUA).
The new treatment would likely have fewer side effects than Viagra, which is taken orally and been shown to cause headaches and facial flushing.
Researchers also believe that the nanoparticle therapy could work much more quickly than Pfizer’s market-leading drug, which takes up to an hour to kick in.
“This is a very interesting concept which has potential to impact treatment of many conditions including erectile dysfunction if it can be translated from the animal lab to clinical practice,” said Ira D Sharlip of the AUA.
An estimated 2.3 million men in Britain are thought to suffer from the erectile problems, which can be caused by a variety of conditions.

Urm… what the hell “other conditions” would boner cream treat besides erectile dysfunction? And what if you applied the cream and then gave a guy a handjob—would it rub off on him? And how about those poor rats? Did they at least give them rat porn or inflatable sex partners so they didn’t suffer from tiny blue balls? Oh science! You’ve left so many questions unanswered!

QC FYI: Cum Tastes Gross, “Belongs” In Vaginas

QC FYI: Cum
Even though you may give your lover’s semen a cutesy culinary name such as “love honey,” “nut butter,” or “pearl jam” it’s a popular consensus that semen tastes kinda nasty. Yes, some folks like the taste (there’s even a cum cookbook and loads of advice on how to change the flavor of your fluid), but we’ve found that cum usually tastes like salmon-flavored brie at best and lumpy goat milk at worst.
However, one armchair evolutionary psychologist, Jerry Coyne, has theorized why jism tastes so bad. First, to prove it tastes bad, he got a friend to ask 24 females, “Sperm…would you spit or swallow? In other words, can you abide by or do you hate the taste?” One lonely female commented, “I should be so lucky.” But of the 17 who answered, 11 spit and only 6 swallowed. We imagine that if they asked gay men, the swallow side might have been higher or the answers more colorful (“Oh, I never swallow, I use it as lube” or “Only on weekends and never before midnight, darling.”)

One answer, of course, is that the chemicals necessary to make an ejaculate effective have the side effect of tasting bad. Semen is only about 5% sperm, with the remainder of the fluid consisting of a complex mixture of compounds from the prostate gland and seminal vesicle… Some of these amines have the names putrescine and cadaverine, which give an idea of how they smell… natural selection could presumably add some sugars or good-tasting stuff to semen if it were advantageous to do so. Why does it not do so?

Good question, though we’re curious why Jerry took up the question to begin with. Anyhow, he finally comes up with this brilliant, sensible, and utterly untestable. hypothesis:

Natural selection maintains the repugnant taste of semen so that a man’s sperm will wind up in the appropriate place: the vagina and not the stomach. So long as sperm tastes bad, women will not be tempted to swallow it, but will turn their male partner towards conventional intercourse, which of course is the only act that will produce children. In other words, any male with good-tasting sperm would have fewer offspring than his competitors. A man whose sperm tasted like honey would probably not have any children at all.

So if you do like the taste of jerkwad, then you may yourself be an evolved being (or just a cum-hungry whore). What do you think? Do you like the taste of cum? Do you spit or swallow? For safety reasons or for culinary ones? Does Jerry’s vaginal hypothesis make sense? Or do you find the whole subject (tee-hee) distasteful?

Has Gay Porn Bottomed Out (Financially Speaking)?

Has Gay Porn Bottomed Out (Financially Speaking)?
The Advocate just released an article called “Porn Panic” which asks whether the gay porn industry will be dealt a “knock-out blow” by The New Depression much like the auto and financial industries have been. It’s an excellent article that deserves a full read, but we’ve summarized some of the interesting highlights and have posted some polls to get your feedback.
Gay Pride Parade
PORN IS PRIDE?: Porn DVD sales are down between 25% to 45%, model fees have been cut 20%, February was a bad month for new memberships, and declined credit cards on recurring billings have increased from one or two per week to seven to 10 per day, according to some websites. Apart from offering whack-off material, bigger porn studios also contribute large amounts to HIV and gay rights organizations. So if big studios go down, so will their contributions (with no other givers to fill the vacuum).

In the future everyone will fuck like robots
CYBER SEX GETS AN UPGRADE: To compete in the overcrowded online porn market, some porn sites/studios are consolidating to create large gay adult entertainment conglomerates. For instance, Raging Stallion Studios/Pistol Media combined with AEBN/NakedSword in February. This allows for competitors to combine their accounting, warehouse, distribution, web, studio, and factory resources instead of redundantly competing. Meanwhile, others studios are changing their web formats to accommodate mobile devices and vary their offerings. For example, some porn sites now also feature downloadable videos, DVD and sex-toy stores, fan social networks, porn star blogs, picture galleries, and on-demand video.

More points and polls, AFTER THE JUMP!

Cock Quiz: Can You Name Six Recent QCocks?

Cock Quiz: Can You Name Six Recent QCocks?
OK, porn fans… here’s a challenge. Above are six cocks that we’ve showed on QC Main in the last 12 hours—cut and uncut, trimmed and untrimmed, thick and veiny. Think you can name the porn star attached to each cock and the studio attached to each porn star?
If you’re a real cock-loving PROFESSIONAL (you visually devour cocks), give yourself 6 points now and add an additional point for every name and one for every studio you name correctly.
But if you’re just an appreciative AMATEUR (no shame in that), start with zero points: look over our last few posts, come back, and see how many you can name from memory; give yourself one point for every porn star name and one for every studio.
If you’re a QC regular, it’s actually easier than you might think. Just by looking at the picture quality, you might be able to figure out which studio provided the shot. As for the cocks, most of the guys are newcomers, so that’s tougher, but give it your best shot!
We’ve got the answers and scoring chart after the jump, but test your skills and let us know how you did.
