A man goes
to his doctor and complains that his wife hasn't wanted to have
sex with him for the past six months. The doctor tells the man
to bring his wife in so he can talk to her and hopefully determine
what the problem is.
The following
day, the wife goes to the doctor's office. The doctor asks her
what's wrong, why doesn't she want to have sex with her husband?
"Oh, that's
easily explained. For the past six months," the wife says, "I've
been taking a cab to work every morning. I don't have any money.
The cab driver asks me, 'Are you going to pay today, or what?'
So, I take an 'or what'." "Then, when I get to work," she continues,
"I'm late, so the boss asks me, 'Are we going to write this down
in the book, or what?' So, I take an 'or what'. I take a cab to
go home after work and, as usual, I have no money. The cab driver
asks me again, 'So, are you going to pay this time, or what?'
Again, I take an 'or what'. So you see, doc, by the time I get
home I'm all tired out and don't want it anymore."
"Yes, I see,"
replies the doctor. "So, are we going to tell your husband, or
what?"
Anal
sexual activity can be pleasurable, fun and very stimulating
solo or for partners. Some of the biggest concerns seem
to be about pleasure, pain, hygiene, and STDs. These are
all important when examining anal sexual stimulation from
penetration, to outer stimulation (also known as rimming).

Below are
some helpful tips that should provide you with the information
you need as well as products to aid you in achieving your anal
play goals with anal sex toy recommendations as well as anal sex
videos as well.
Anal
SexHygiene
Having
unprotected anal sex is a good way to contract the HIV/AIDS
virus. Before any type of anal sex activity, it is important
that you protect yourself and your partner. Make sure to discuss
with your partner(s) the best way to ensure your health.
Bowel
Movements
It's a good idea to have a bowel movement at least an hour before
anal sex (if possible). This decreases bacterial contamination
as well as messes that may not be desirable.
Cleaning
Your Anus
Try to clean your anus thoroughly with hot, soapy water before
any anal activities. A great alternative are baby wipes, in fact,
a strippers technique, many people use them instead of toilet
paper for clean up after any bowel movement.
An anal enema is a surge of distilled, clean water into
the anus which cleanses the area. Please Note- enemas
do NOT eliminate ALL bacteria and germs from the anus ).
They are easy to do, very inexpensive ($1.30 U.S.), and
found at your local grocery store.
There
are of course some people who find anal enemas sexually
stimulating in addition to the mere cleansing aspect.
It
is a good idea to allow at least an hour before anal sex
for the anal enema to have full effect. You may want to
note that it is not healthy to perform frequent anal enemas
as this can put stress on the anus.
Bacteria
The entire anal region has a variety of bacteria inside and just
outside it. You will want to be careful to avoid getting that
bacteria into other orifices of your body to prevent infection.
When you choose to give someone a "Rim Job" or lick
their anus you may risk getting sick from bacteria present. You
may want to use a finger or toy with lubricant for a similar effect
without the risk.
Oral
Anal Sex
Also known
as "Analingus," it is the act of licking or inserting
the tongue into the anus to provide pleasure. Both men and women
enjoy analingus and you can use some of the same techniques on
each. Positioning where the receiver's butt cheeks are naturally
spread such as kneeling on all fours (doggie style) with their
legs spread apart, or on their back with their legs up in the
air (again, legs spread apart) makes the anus easier to access.
It's not a
good idea to perform oral sex or kiss after analingus, as bacteria
from the anus can wreak havoc on other parts of the body. Make
sure to clean your mouth thoroughly afterward by brushing your
teeth and tongue and using Listerine.
Using
Condoms For Anal Sex
Due to the risk of STD's,
including HIV/AIDS, condoms
have become an essential part of careful anal sex. It is
also good for monogamous couples because the bacteria from
the anus can get inside the urethra of the man's penis (pee
hole) and cause a ( UTI ) Urinary Tract Infection.
When
using condoms make sure to use water
based lubricants with latex condoms - an oil based
lube will destroy the condom.
When
First Using Anal Sex Toys
For
first time users of anal sex toys, it is important to remember
that using any kind of flexible jelly type toys may be hard
to insert as you may be tensing and inadvertently keeping
your sphincter muscle tight and closed, not allowing the
toy to enter.
You
may also want to avoid using a toy that is overly hard as
you need to get used to what this feels like and because
of inexperience you may cause damage.
Therefore
using something like the Silicone
Dildo to the right is a good toy to start with as
it is soft, yet firm enough for entry. It also has a great
handle for easy maneuvering.
Preparation
For Anal Sex
To prepare
for anal sex, the first thing the receiver needs to do is
relax. Pain will most certainly occur is the receiver is
tense and clenching their sphincter muscles.
A hot
bath or massage are great beforehand and as things progress
you will want to play with the anal rim first and then slowly
penetrate with ample lubricant.
To
prevent psychological inhibitors, make sure to discuss limits,
expectations and techniques of your anal experience before
you begin so that the receiver is confident that they are
not going to be painfully surprised by something.
Preventing
Anal Trauma
The
anal canal is a very sensitive area, especially the deeper
you go. Sharp objects, friction and certain materials may
cause cuts, pain and or allergic reaction to the entire
region. Be very careful about staying within your limits
and test for allergies such as to latex, etc..
Fingering the Anus
Before
fingering the anus, make sure your fingernails are trimmed
and you have the proper lubrication.
Rimming
Probably
the easiest anal sex technique and a great way to introduce
someone to anal sex. Start on the outside and slowly work
your way in.
Use
one finger to gently circle the outer rim of the anus. Lubrication
heightens pleasure and makes entry later easier.

Ringing
the Bell
Take
one finger and push on the anus without penetrating it,
as though you were ringing a doorbell. Hold each push down
for a second or two before releasing. You can vary the speed
and pressure to make more interesting.
Thrusting
This
is when lubrication is essential. Start slowly inserting
a little bit at a time into the anus while moving in and
out. Once far enough in you can build speed and pressure.
Multiple
Fingers
Once
a beginner is comfortable, you can begin to add more intensity
if you desire. Adding fingers as well as pushing against
the walls while inside will add intensity. Some people even
go as far as anal fisting.
This is only for those that are well educated in fisting
and take precautions as it is a highly risky activity for
infection, permanent damage and trauma.
Anal
Love For Men
While
performing oral sex on a man it is often found to be highly
erotic to stimulate the perineum (the area between the base
of the balls and the anus).
Work
your way down to the anus and begin circling the outer rim
of the anus. If all goes well, slowly insert your finger
up to your first knuckle. Keep a close eye on your partner
to make sure he's enjoying it. Proceed slowly.
Depending
on the man, you may only be able to get one knuckle deep
before he's uncomfortable, or you may find that he enjoys
an entire finger (or two - or three).
During
orgasm in a man, the perineum and the anus become highly
charged orgasmic centers of pleasure.
Each
man is different, but if you locate his (sweet spot- prostate)
you can give him intense orgasms.
Another
technique is to use anal beads and pull them out at the
moment of climax.
Prostate
Massage-
Traditionally,
doctors would massage their patients' prostates regularly
to cure or prevent disease. Now, however, most doctors only
check the prostate, and if they find a problem prefer to
cut it out or prescribe medication.
You
can do it yourself or have your partner do it for you. Try
this practice and discover its health benefits. When you
do it yourself, you can be very gentle and make the treatment
pleasurable as well as efficacious.
The prostate
is analogous to the G spot in women which is shown to the right.
The prostate can be massaged by inserting a finger (toy, dildo
etc.) a minimum of three inches into your anus and stroking toward
the front of your body through the walls of your rectum.
The
technique of prostate massage actually involves two (three) organs
of the male reproductive system: the prostate gland, the seminal
vesicles, and the ampulla, which is the reservoir which actually
holds the male sperm just prior to ejaculation.
The
prostate gland when engorged can be felt by pressing a finger
into the middle of the perineum (in back of the scrotum). It is
a rounded lump about the size of a large marble. It can also be
accessed via the rectum, where it can again be felt as a rounded
lump toward the front of the body and just about an index finger's
length inside the rectum.
A
better way to find it from the rectum is to insert the middle
finger, and slide it from just inside the rectum (on the front
side) up and in until you feel it move over a lump. That will
be the prostate.
During
sexual arousal, sperm and ejaculatory fluid accumulate in these
glands backing up behind valves in the ejaculatory ducts. When
fluid pressure reaches a high enough threshold, the valves open
and the urethral bulb fills, triggering the ejaculatory reflex
and muscular contractions of orgasm, which empties the glands.
You can massage your prostate by simply inserting your finger
or toy into the anus and reaching back and up towards the navel
until you feel the prostate gland. Use natural-content personal
lubricant of the type specific to this purpose to facilitate insertion
of the finger, and gently rub back and forth on the prostate using
as much pressure as you can without causing pain.
Here
is what our Tantric consultant Somraj says about prostate massage-
"We
don't all start out as super tight-assed guys. But strong
injunctions against making a mess after toilet training takes
hold start us out clamping our back doors shut. Plus insensitive
rectal exams and the modern war against rectal and prostate
cancer doesn't help our relaxing into the pleasure produced
by the huge density of nerve endings there.
By
the way, surveys prove that over half of heterosexual men experiment
with anal play. So if you're seriously considering what I'm recommending
and like it, it doesn't mean you're gay.
If you'll pardon the tasteless metaphor, prostate play is an acquired
taste. Most guys only enjoy it after repeated practice. That was
certainly true for me. At first, I was tight, tense, and clamped
rigidly shut. In fact, at times it was downright painful.
Because
it focuses on pleasure as a divine imperative, Tantra was the
perfect vehicle for me to welcome male G-Spot Orgasm. Under my
guidance, my beloved learned to warm me up, lube me up, and enter
me oh so gently. Even so, she initially contacted hot spots, ultra
sensitive areas that needed to be healed with repeated exercise
coupled with Tantric energy breathing. Stage by stage I got to
the point where I could relax my sphincter almost at will.
Did
you know there are two ring-like muscles that guard your anus,
one under your control and one normally ruled by the involuntary
nervous system? Developing the ability to relax and open both
at will was a big step for me in welcoming G-Spot pleasure. Gradually
I could feel new and unique sensations from the strokes on my
prostate gland. Our Tantra training in the mid 1990s taught us
to engage in dual penis and G-Spot massage as part of a multiple
orgasm program."
Aneros
Prostate Massager
Specialty
toys for prostate massage are becoming more popular. The
Aneros (shown above ) received poor reviews from our customers
and it was considered overpriced an hard to use. It typically
sells for $40.00- $50.00. We have a better alternative in
the Pandora made by Vibratex.
We
have also received poor reviews about the The Eroscillator,
endorsed by Dr. Ruth shown to the left. At $100 - $160 we
figure it better rock your world. It's heavy and is cord
operated which limits you; the attachments are hard plastic
and actually painful according to some of our web site visitors.
We
recommend using a slim g-spot stimulator which is less expensive,
is just as effective and vibrates.
What
you need for fun on the back end of anal love!
Sexual
intensity is enhanced by massaging the penis at the same
time! Some men have passed out from the sheer pleasure so
be prepared for an amazing sexual experience!
You
can stimulate the prostate with a finger, dildo or other
anal toy through the anus. If you are using your finger
or anal toys, try performing fellatio sex or a handjob at
the same time. If your partner doesn't like anus area play
you can perform prostate stimulation by firmly massaging
the area between the anus and the scrotum from the outside.
His orgasmic pleasure will become greater.
Some
men enjoy it, some others don't. The amount that a man will
enjoy this depends on his personal physiology as well as
how he feels about it in general.
Some
men may find it unpleasant for a number of reasons, while
others will experience incredible orgasms. Relaxation and
patience is the key.
Anal
Love For Women
In a
woman, the nerve centers of the vagina and the anus share
several common walls and paths. When stimulated together,
women can experience enhanced pleasure and extremely intense
orgasms. Thus, double penetration (simultaneous insertion
into the anus and vagina) can be an amazing sexual experience
for a woman.
Women also enjoy exclusive anal stimulation, both around
the rim of the anus and through insertion and penetration.
Toys,
Fingers & Penis
Using a sex
toy such as a g-spot stimulator, dildo or anal beads can
be exciting to a woman. While anal sex is not something all women
enjoy, women can have anal orgasms and even female
ejaculate while having one.
Many women
enjoy rimming, and penetration, so the use of the toys, finger
and penis for anal stimulation are all great ways to play.

The
Study
An
Erotic Tale by Arnie
Every year
I go to my favorite vacation spot for two weeks near Cape Cod.
It’s a small rented cabin on a private lot with its own sandy
beach a great place to just relax in the heat of the summer.
I love to get up really early in the morning just past dawn and
go down for a skinny dip in the cold water. It’s a special feeling
being all alone with fresh water rushing around my entire naked
body. I can only last in the frigid water for about ten minutes,
but it’s just enough to feel completely refreshed and ready to
tackle the rest of the day.
On this one
particular morning while swimming in the water, enjoying my usual
routine, my neighbor Susan very quietly and suddenly appeared
right before me paddling in her canoe. I hadn’t even noticed her
approach as she took me by complete surprise. Susan was a clever
and gifted graduate student at Harvard University; a lovely looking
girl in her early twenties.
“Oh hello”,
I said somewhat embarrassed knowing I was swimming without any
clothes on. “I see you have your birthday suit on this morning”,
she laughed. “Well, I always do my morning dip this way”, I replied.
“Mind if I stick around a while? I’m working on a thesis with
my roommate Clair on sexual differences within the male anatomy.
Any good chance I get to see a real naked man is a bonus!” she
said with a wink. “You’ve got to be joking!” I said. “No not at
all. We thought we could work on this document together and have
a whole lot of fun at the same time. Don’t you think it’s a smart
idea?” she asked.
“I’m going
to have to get out soon it’s getting too cold”, I said. “Well
how would you like to participate in our research project?” she
asked. “We are taking numerical statistics on a few random guys
to see if we can nail down certain conclusions on fertility rates
in relation to variances in male genital anatomy.
This is the
part you boys always like; basically, we need to get up really
close and you know, very personal, to document changes in sexual
function and measure you precisely as we proceed. It’s methodically
slow and time consuming work, but it can turn into a bit of erotic
fun you... strictly in the name of science of course. Are you
game?”
This sounded
too good to be true. “Sure”, I hesitated. “Great, why don’t you
come on over to my place this evening say around nine o’clock.
I’ll tell Clair and we’ll get right to work”, she gingerly smiled.
“I have to get out of the water now”, I said almost shivering,
and swam toward the shore. Then standing up and walking naked
on the beach to grab my towel, I wrapped the towel around me and
turned around to face her. She had taken a picture of me with
her digital camera. “Nice ass! Great body! Perfect specimen! Hope
to see the rest of you later... up close! Be there and you won’t
regret it,” Susan shouted and paddled off into the distance.
I knocked
at Susan’s cottage door right at 9:00 clutching a bottle of red
wine. “Hello Come in, its great to see you. Clair, our neighborly
gentleman specimen has arrived”, Susan declared. She opened the
wine and poured three glasses and we sat down in the living room.
“This should
be fun for you”, Susan smiled, “but first we need you to fill
out a couple of forms.” The first one stated that my privacy and
identity would be respected and not be divulged to anyone, and
my signature was required in order for them to proceed with their
study. The next one formally requested all sorts of information
about my health history, use of drugs, allergies, age, sexual
preferences - heterosexual or homosexual and things like that.
I filled these
forms out and then Clair spoke to me in a very frank and serious
manner about what they were going to do.
“We need to
document physical changes in your genitals as we conduct this
study. So, of course you’ll need to undress in that area because
we require absolute total access. I would suggest you’d probably
feel more comfortable and in the mood by just removing all your
clothes. We’ll be taking photos of your private parts -shall we
say, from various angles while we go.
Susan and
I will be in full control of maintaining or changing your various
states of arousal. You don’t need to do anything although you
will need to be standing up with your legs slightly apart for
a long time. We will be using thin latex gloves on our hands with
a very small quantity of lubrication not only to arouse, but to
gauge hardness and skin changes in your penis, perineum and scrotum.
Tape measures
and calipers will be used, and we’ll also document your pre-ejaculation
endurance time. We will check the prostate a few times during
the procedure which will mean inserting a finger slightly inside
your anus.
All of the
seminal fluids we excrete from you need to be collected in a flask
and the quantity noted, then put in a freezer which we will later
send out for a detailed laboratory analysis. We will not concern
ourselves with collecting what we call pre-cum ejaculate, but
its consistency and flavor composition will be documented for
interest sake, and as it turns out Susan’s specialty is determining
that orally which I’m sure is something you will likely enjoy.
According
to our method, we’ll have your arousal reach the strongest peak
three times before we force you to ejaculate all your semen thoroughly.
Please this is critical- you must inform us just before you
think you are going to ejaculate in order for us to back off and
take proper measurements.
This entire
procedure will need to be done twice every evening for three evenings
in a row for our study to be complete. Usually the first entire
episode of the evening is quicker than the second. We’ll have
a twenty minute break in between. We can just take our time
no need to hurry that way you can also enjoy the experience
as much as possible while we do our critical statistical work.
Do you understand? Any questions?”
“What about
you? Aren’t you girls going to be naked too and don’t we get to
at least fuck or something?” I asked. Clair’s face immediately
turned beet red and she was obviously flustered.
“Look, this
is strictly school work mister I admit it’s quite unusual which
is why most students are too reluctant to work in this genre,
but this session is strictly for academic purposes only and that’s
where it ends even though you may benefit by finding it somewhat
stimulating or erotic- that’s our position. So understanding
that, do you want to proceed?” “Well o.k. then I understand.
Let’s do it”, I replied.
“Good”, Clair
sighed with a relieved expression, “Then follow Susan into the
washroom and she’ll prepare you by cleansing the area with antibacterial
soap. When you come out I’ll have all the tools needed to begin."
I went into
the bathroom with Susan who spoke to me in a warm and friendly
fashion. “You can see that Clair is a pretty serious student,
and so am I, but just so you know she’s gay, so her perspective
on this is way different than mine. I personally get to enjoy
these research sessions both on an academic and erotic level
so it’s all fun for me! Thanks so much for doing this I told
you that you wouldn’t regret it. You are in for what amounts to
a couple of slow and teasing expert hand jobs by two gals for
three nights in a row that’s six deluxe hand jobs -you can’t
complain about that! So we better get started. How about taking
off your clothes now and stepping in the bathtub?”
I did as I
was told and already had a solid hard-on when she began washing
my ass and all around my balls and cock with soap and water, all
the while with a big smile on her face. “Step out” she said as
she wiped me dry with a towel, and then just fixed her gaze at
my crotch for a minute. “I don’t mind telling you off the record,
that you have an absolutely gorgeous and picture perfect cock.
For being
such a good sport, how about I paddle over to your place next
week when you are doing your regular skinny dip, and reward you
with a slow and decedent early morning blow job?” I was certainly
now in the mood for the evening’s activities when she said “O.K.
lets go”.
Clair prepared
a spot for me in the center of the living room. I stood there
naked and horny, with my legs apart between two tables, one with
all her tools and gadgets, and the other with glasses of wine.
“I see you
are almost ready. We’ll begin taking statistics the first time
you reach your peak, which will likely happen pretty fast once
we get started.” Susan began taking pictures of me from the rear,
front, and on the floor between my legs looking up. They both
then put on gloves and poured lubricant in their hands. Clair
began massaging my balls and anus, and Susan concentrated slowly
pumping both her hands along my hard cock.
“Now tell
us before you ejaculate”, Clair reminded me in a worried tone.
It took only about three minutes when I declared “Stop now!” The
girls immediately withdrew their hands and Clair measured the
full length of my cock on top and bottom, using calipers to measure
thickness in various spots while Susan took pictures. They noted
measurements for my testicles, and started feeling and squeezing
areas for hardness all the while jotting down figures in their
notebooks. “This will just take a second,” Clair said as she inserted
a finger in my anus to probe my prostate.
“How are you
doing?” Susan asked. “I’m feeling fine”, I replied. “We’ll give
you another minute and then we’ll start you up again”, she added.
I started oozing a bit of pre-cum, and when they were ready to
get going Susan looked at me and said, “I’ll just take care of
this first.” She came over and licked it all off and then stated;
“Smooth and light just slightly salty but a very desirable
consistency.” She jotted all that down in her notes and gave me
a seductive glance.
“O.K. here
we go again”, Susan said. They resumed the hand job as before,
but this time it took only a minute when I shouted “Stop!” Once
aging they repeated their measurements, and Susan licked off another
small amount of pre-cum.
By now my
cock was so sensitive that I knew I could only last for a few
seconds.” All right are you ready? This is the third time so we
are about to collect all your seminal fluids”, Clair said. Clair
inserted her finger to get at my prostate, and as soon as Susan
started moving her hands up and down my cock, I joyfully moaned
while spewing out cum in strong bursts which Clair collected in
her glass bottle. “We need as much as possible", Susan insisted
as she kept pumping away until it appeared that I was completely
finished.
“Pretty nice
huh?” Susan laughed and I nodded approvingly. Clair gathered up
her flask to put in the freezer and said, “Relax and we will do
it all again in twenty minutes.” “What if I can’t get an erection?”
I asked. “Don’t worry that’s never been a problem with anyone
before” Susan positively assured me. I wondered how many other
guys they had done this to.
The entire
procedure was done again and it took much longer for me to get
hard and cum for them the second time, making the evening events
a drawn-out but enjoyable adventure for me. I wasn’t sure if I
had any semen left inside me to collect, but somehow they did
manage to drain a good amount for their use.
When it was
time to leave Clair said “Thanks for being a fine specimen”, and
Susan winked to me to say “Get some rest and we will see you again
tomorrow big boy!” For two more evenings I eagerly participated
in their research study, and Susan true to her word gave me a
slow and teasing blow job a few days later which was her way of
saying thank you.
The next year
when I showed up on my annual vacation, Susan paddled by my place
once again during my morning swim. “Hello naked guy”, she said.
“What’s the latest on your thesis?” I asked.
“We discovered
absolutely no correlation whatsoever between cock size and cum
quantity or quality between males. Actually if you really want
to know the truth we just made the whole darn thing up it was
a total lark. We just wanted to have some fun. I hope you didn’t
mind? I'm now working on my Ph.D. study concerning methods for
cocksucking. Are you game?” “You bet I am”, I replied.

Intrinsa:
Patch To Boost Women’s Sex Drive April
2007
Procter and
Gamble has developed the Intrinsa patch for treatment of women
with a low sex drive. Intrinsa delivers testosterone via skin
absorption. Being in clear patch form makes it inconspicuous and
easy to apply.
P&G does not
want Intrinsa to be described as Viagra for women. Instead they
prefer to portray Intrinsa as a weapon against premature menopause.
Intrinsa offers medical hope to these women as studies showed
that the patch increases sexual desire and satisfying sexual activity
while reducing associated distress. However, the drug is incapable
of addressing the “complex reasons” for low sex drive.
A 55-year-old,
British, furniture restorer, Michael Ford, was always experimenting
with drinks made from different plants and one day he tried an
infusion from his winter-flowering heather. He said: "The effect
was almost immediate. I had to stay in my potting shed for an
hour or so before I could decently walk down the street."
He then contacted
the Royal Botanic Gardens, Edinburgh, famous for their work with
the heather family, to see if they could offer an explanation.
They could. Botanist Alan Bennell said: "This first surfaced when
East European chemists reported finding a Viagra-type chemical
in the floral tissues of winter-flowering heaths.
They were
able to isolate measurable amounts of material that is an analogue
of the active principle in Viagra." Winter-flowering heather,
he explained, belongs to the genus Erica, a close relative of
our own native heather. He said: "As yet, the active ingredient
has not been found in these British forms, but it is proving to
be most concentrated in many of the widely available hybrids sold
as winter-flowering heather in garden centers. Particularly potent
are forms of Erica carnea, the Alpine heather, whose range extends
into the Balkans. "The work of these biochemists and physiologists
- much of it disrupted and lost during the ravages of war - is
now coming to light."
From the limited
amount of information available, it is suggested the Viagra-analogue
is best extracted by steeping the detached small flowers in neat
alcohol. An infusion of about 20g of flowers in 100ml of fluid
liberates the active principle. A quality full-strength vodka
(at least 40 per cent) is also effective. Mr. Bennell added: "There
is some confusion whether oral consumption or topical application
is more effective."
Husband
Kills Wife's Lover; Wife Charged April
2007
Darrell Roberson
came home from a card game late one night to find his wife rolling
around with another man in a pickup truck in the driveway. Caught
in the act with her lover, Tracy Roberson panicked in her fear
of being caught in her adulterous tryst, so she cried rape.
However, just
the night before she sent her lover LaSalle a text message that
read in part, "Hi friend, come see me please! I need to feel your
warm embrace!" according to court papers. LaSalle apparently agreed.
When her husband
discovered the two, his wife was clad in a robe and underwear.
When Tracy Roberson cried that she was being raped, LaSalle tried
to drive away and her husband drew the gun he happened to be carrying
and fired several shots at the truck.
Her husband
pulled a gun and killed the other man with a shot to the head.
A grand jury handed up a manslaughter indictment against the wife,
not the husband. The grand jury declined to charge the husband
with murder, the charge on which he was arrested by police.
Mark Osler,
a Baylor University law school professor and a former federal
prosecutor, said the grand jurors evidently put themselves in
the husband's place: "I can see one of them saying, 'I would have
shot the guy, too. I was just protecting my wife.'
While it seems
reasonable that a man would want to protect his wife, the man
was driving away when shot... that is not protecting anyone, that
is attacking someone with vengeance. Seems there ought to be some
level of responsibility there.
Kids
Having Sex With Each Other Charged April
2007
Utah Supreme
Court justices are still struggling around the concept of how
a 13-year-old girl can be both an offender and a victim for the
same act - in this case, having consensual sex with her 12-year-old
boyfriend.
The Ogden,
Utah, girl was put in this odd position because she was found
guilty of violating a state law that prohibits sex with someone
under age 14. She also was the victim in the case against her
boyfriend, who was found guilty of the same violation by engaging
in sexual activity with her.
Randall Richards,
the girl's attorney, argued that prosecuting children under a
law meant to protect them is illogical. "A child (victim) cannot
also be a perpetrator in the exact same act," Richards said. The
Utah Supreme Court will issue a ruling later.
Masturbating
Woman In Frat House April
2007
Male students
at Michigan University called police after a young woman walked
into their house and started masturbating. Fraternity members
were eating in the dining room at the time. The woman told them
her name was Melissa and she was a student at Eastern Michigan
University. She was between 20 and 30 years old, had short brown
hair and appeared to be under the influence of drugs.
No one saw
her enter the house but the front door had been left propped open
because it was being repaired. Fraternity members asked the woman
to leave the house, but she refused and continued masturbating
for about half an hour. When members asked the woman if she was
all right, she casually replied that she was fine.
At one point
she was talking on her mobile phone. She walked out wearing only
a thigh-length black coat after a fraternity member called the
police. By the time police arrived, minutes later, she had already
left.
Blinders
For Road Advertisements April
2007
In Sacramento,
CA there is a well-known pickup truck with homemade billboards
on every side. It parks in front of the Capitol building and typically
features anti-homosexual and anti-abortion statements with accompanying
pictures.
One of the
pictures is a very graphic and grizzly display of a dismembered
aborted fetus. Droves of very young school children, who visit
the Capitol almost daily, may freely look upon the images of the
corpse.
Assemblyman
Paul Cook (R-Yucaipa) introduced legislation, AB 1067, to require
businesses to use opaque blinders to cover printed materials which
may feature nudity or any arousing content on the cover, if a
minor may somehow catch a glimpse of the image.
However, Assemblyman
Cook does not want to have the traveling billboard of a (naked)
fetus covered-up. Instead, he wants to protect children from seeing
even a breast on the cover of a magazine at a newsstand.
If passed
into law, that would mean any business owner who allowed these
magazines to be displayed could be held criminally liable if they
did not have the lower 2/3 of the publication covered.
In August,
2006, Baby Talk magazine featured on its cover a side view of
a breast with an attentive baby latched onto it. The main article
was, "why women don't nurse longer", and perhaps had the yet-to-be
conceived AB 1067 in mind as an example of underlying values.
Does the state
really consider a picture of a woman nourishing her baby to be
harmful matter? Yes, according to the puritanical Assemblyman
Cook. In fact, breasts are apparently so dangerous that the first
policy committee to hear this legislation will be the Assembly
Committee on Public Safety, on Tuesday, April 10th.
If you are
interested in voicing your opposition to this legislation, then
you can write to: The Honorable Paul Cook, Member of the State
Assembly, State Capitol, Sacramento, CA 95814.
Porn
Swap With Secret Military Information April
2007
Three Japanese
naval officers who swapped pornography on their computers triggered
a scandal over a possible leak of sensitive data linked to Japan's
missile defense system.
The officers
told police they accidentally copied the confidential data onto
their computer's hard disk when copying porn from a computer belonging
to a crew member from another destroyer.
Any defense
leak could potentially affect Japan's biggest ally, the United
States, whose navy also uses the Aegis system. Spokesmen for the
Defense Ministry and local police declined to comment on the investigation.
