Having never had a bun in the oven, been watering a belly melon, or been with child, I’ve never thought much about maternity fashion. If I was baking a bun, or a bread basket, I’d love this stuff by Mommy-Go-Round. I’d wear the “Started with a Kiss” or “Immaculate Conception” designs, but first I’d have to sprout a belly melon. Hmm, even though I’m not ready for that I think I’ll go climb Wolf’s vine.
You’ve heard Peaches. Her music has been in the movies Jackass 2, Lost in Translation, Mean Girls and The Gap used her music in their fall 2006 ad campaign. I can only assume they were trying to sell their khakis as sexy in a unisex way, or maybe as the slacks that Kiss rocks in. Peaches is the hyper-sexualized hermaphrodite-envying female version of Kiss.
Peaches purportedly began her career as an elementary school teacher (didn’t Marilyn Manson also?) and now has finished a tour where she and her band (The Hemes) opened for Nine Inch Nails (as did Marilyn Manson).
Her sound isn’t so much my thing, but her liberating lyrics (with titles like “Fuck the Pain Away” and “Dittle My Skittle”) are truly refreshing. Peaches decision to entitle an album Fatherfucker as a parody/equalizer to the common and overly used curse “motherfucker” should be applauded.
If you want to applaud her some more, check out these video clips below.
Micropenis is a sincere medical condition.
Apparently you are considered a hermaphrodite if your penis is super tiny. As if having a small penis isn’t emasculating enough.
The term intersex is now used instead of hermaphrodite, for what I would call political correct reasoning if I didn’t think that Intersex sounds worse than hermaphrodite. Intersex, the word sounds like insect. Hermaphrodite makes me think of Aphrodite.
I got all this from this website for the old PBS show Sex:Unknown. The most interesting tidbit, or microbit, was that one percent of the population is technically a hermaphrodite. If this is true, wouldn’t it make both transsexual and transgender people easier to understand, and for everyone to accept?
Perhaps fetishes for shemales, and the like, are less like fetishes and more like predispositions.
For example I give Chen Lili, a transsexual who entered the Miss Universe contest a few years ago, but could only go so far in the competition not because of her lack of beauty, but because she was born a woman. Wouldn’t it be more universal if she had been permitted to enter? Also, doesn’t it take more skill to be a beautiful woman if you are physically born a man?
Chen Lili does not seem like a fetish, simply a person who happens to be good at being a hot chick.
Plushies (people who like to dress up as animals for sexual arousal) remain a fetish, pending further scientific exploration, or their ability to get a stuffed animal into any pageant.
Ever wonder if there was someone else there while talking dirty to your lover?
