FIRST SEX PARTY VOTING IN VICTORIA

08 12 2009 

     Australian Sex Party candidate in the Higgins byelection last Saturday, Fiona Patten, may lodge a complaint with the Australian Electoral Commission after she was detained by police on the morning of the poll. She had a difficult time convincing police that she was in fact a candidate in the election.

Her vehicle was pulled over and she was detained for half an hour when starting her rounds of the polling booths early on Saturday morning after two complaints that the Sex Party van she was travelling in along Toorak Road was offensive.

''I explained that I was a candidate in the byelection,'' Patten said yesterday. ''But they didn't seem to be aware there was one.''

Patten received 3.27 per cent of the vote, an impressive start for the fledgling party.

In Bradfield, the party achieved a similar result - without police intervention - reporting that its candidate, pole dancer Marianne Leishman, stage name Zahra Stardust, was most popular in booths at Chatswood Public School and Lindfield, both of which accounted for 5 per cent of the party's overall vote in the seat.


Fiji Regime Change & The Unsexy Alliance Of Church & Police State

November 29, 2009

Story by Tony Max  sources: Paul McGeouh, Tania Lee and Peni Moore, Suva

    Fiji's regime is bringing the Fiji Methodist Church under its military boot, and a fundamentalist rival church has joined forces with Fiji police to curb crime according to news reports coming out of Suva.

Methodist sources say the phones of its church leaders are tapped; their emails are intercepted; and they are being followed by plainclothes police officers as they move around Suva and the islands. Their passports have been confiscated and they are not allowed to meet with more than two people at any one time.

The ascent of Pastor Vulaono's New Methodist Church has coincided with calls for Fiji to be declared a Christian state in which only ''good Christians'' can be appointed to government.

In April rank-and-file police and senior officers were taken aback when ordered to attend a rally where a New Methodist preacher harangued them on the ways of Jesus Christ. Hindu and Muslim Indo-Fijians have also been made to attend and listen to the preacher using the indigenous Fijian language in his implicit rejection of their faith and culture.

Police officers have also been ordered to attend New Methodist crusades where they were made to sing and dance in police uniform on stage. (could be sexy).

Some police have been lecturing people at night clubs, urging them to repent their sins. Couples frequenting Lovers' Land, on Suva's waterfront, have been ordered not to embrace in public and sent back to their respective homes. 

Sex workers not heeding police warnings to get off the streets have been abused by being taken to a bridge where they were made to make a splash by taking a six-metre leap into the water. But, according to several of the women, Christian idealism sometimes fell short when they were made to 'service' the arresting officers and had their purses and mobile phones stolen. They were warned that if they were caught doing it again they would be made to jump from a higher bridge.

Other sex workers have had their heads shaved. Some were made to run alongside police vehicles in Suva's streets. They also had to attend Vulaono's Sunday afternoon crusades under police escort. A human-rights activist said the Fiji courts were pressuring women who were victims of domestic violence to reconcile with their husbands.

Peni Moore, of the Fiji Women's Action for Change lobby, said much of the ill-treatment of sex workers stopped after she complained to Frank Bainimarama about the commissioner's "biblical bullshit".

Fiji's failing economy is being blamed for a rise in the number of children becoming involved in sex work. The child sex industry has boomed in Fiji over the last five to six years. Tania Lee spoke with a Fijian adult sex worker who did not wish to be named, who says children in their early teens are getting involved in the sex trade.

Sex life of politicians leaves Nothing To Be Desired

Story By Tony Max                                                                                                        24 11 2010

What is it with politicians and their attitudes towards sex?  They seem rooted in the middle ages with their shame and denial about their sexual needs. The latest gossip and teeny-play media beat-up centers on Mike Rann and Michelle Chantelois who each claim they did or didn’t fuck each other. 

It all came to light when a bloke assaulted Mike Rann, the South Australian premier with a rolled-up magazine, beating him about the head at a public seminar.  The bloke turned out to be Chantelois’s husband whom Rann claims he didn’t know.

''I have not had sex with her,'' Mr Rann, said yesterday, stridently denying ''absolutely everything'' that Michelle Chantelois, a former parliament house hospitality worker, told Channel Seven and New Idea - for a fat fee: that she was his ''puppet''; that they had sex on the desk and floor in his parliamentary office; that they had more sex in her car, by the side of a road at a golf course. Whoopee do.

Historically, Australia's media, unlike that of Britain and the United States, has been notably blind about pollies private sex lives. Indeed, this has been the case for Mr Rann - until now. But sex sells and the climate of discreet media in Australia is coming to an end.

Will voters judge Premier Rann on his randy pandy escapades as he attempts to lead Labor into its third term?  Well it all depends on weather he is denying and lying and the degree of South Australians judgmental sexual neurosis.

Why doesn’t Rann just say: ‘So what? I banged her and she enjoyed it and now she’s got her nose out joint because she’s not hob nobbing with the rich and powerful anymore.  Now she’s seeking fame and money through the media by taking a swipe at me because I’m a virile bloke and she feels scorned?’

But no, Rann can’t do that.  He wants to follow in Bill Clinton’s footsteps, pussy footing around pretending he has no balls and he is as pure as a Catholic priest….  Er no I mean a virgin soldier. 

In fact this not about sex at all its about sexual neurosis, votes, money and power.


Stefanie Gets Government Apology Over Wrong Passport

October 31, 2009

   
S
tefanie Imbruglia, 42 - a first cousin of the pop star Natalie Imbruglia – who underwent gender reassignment surgry in Thailand has won a written apology from the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade for the distress she experienced as a result of having to travel on a passport that identified her as a male.

Ms Imbruglia had lived for two years as a woman before applying for a passport, but the Howard government rescinded an established practice of issuing transexuals who were to travel abroad for surgery a one-year limited passport in their nominated gender.

Required to travel on a passport that identified her as a male, Ms Imbruglia said she was subjected to ridicule by an Australian passport officer who insisted on calling her ''sir'' even though she was dressed as a woman.

On arrival at Bangkok airport, a passport control officer asked her to account for the discrepancy between her appearance and the gender on her passport by asking  ''At the top of his voice in front of a hall full of people, 'Male or female?' Everyone turned around. It was scary.''

Ms Imbruglia said it was dangerous for transexual women to have to travel abroad on male passports as they could be subjected to intimidation, violence, and arrest. The one-year passports were instituted, she said, after an Australian transexual, forced to travel on a passport that identified her as male, was arrested in Singapore.

''My greatest fear was being detained in a male prison,'' she said. ''The danger the government put me in was huge.''

On return to Australia after surgery, Ms Imbruglia lodged complaints against the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade with the Australian Human Rights Commission. She claimed the department had breached her civil and political rights by knowingly placing her in danger, and was guilty of sex discrimination. By this time, Labor was in power in Canberra.

After conciliation, the department wrote to her saying it apologised ''for any discomfort, distress or embarrassment as a result of your dealings with the Sydney Passport Office … Steps have been taken to ensure that this sort of incident does not occur again.''

Ms Imbruglia said the department had agreed to restore the right of transexuals travelling abroad for gender surgery to a passport in the appropriate gender. It has also agreed some people of diverse or indeterminate gender identity who may not be suitable for genital surgery should be able to get a suitable passport. Ms Imbruglia said she was delighted that common sense had prevailed.

SEX SELLS
Story by Stephen Balls
05 09 09


    The news has it that scandalous brands using sexy advertising are set to hit the streets on huge billboards after reacketeers, sorry that is a mistake, it should read – marketeers, have been given permission to use shock tactics to sell stuff like clothing, coffee, energy drinks and condoms.

Trade marks have been approved for Kunt, er sorry that should read - Knut clothing, Hot Cock foods and Porn Star clothing, but the line has been drawn using religious terms and names  according to the Trade Marks Registrar.

An American energy drink, Cocaine, is being advertised on a billboard across Parramatta Road in the suburb of Strathfield, Sydney. It has already drawn complaints to the advertising watchdog, which said the ad might breach its code on health and safety grounds (but they didn’t mention it being too sexy). It does not of course contain the drug cocaine but twits that buy it can pretend it does.

The junk food industry is under pressure from a government-appointed health task force recommending bans on junk food advertising on television before 9pm and stopping the promotion of grog in live sports.

Trade marks examiners decide if a name is likely to ''scandalise'' a significant proportion of the target market, which could be quite wide for products like clothing and softies drinks, no, that should read soft drinks. If it does scandalise, then the application is rejected.

Calls for a clearer definition of ‘shocking’ or ‘scandalous’ is needed according to law firms working for the trade. And trade mark examiners are being asked to be more 'objective'.

 

Whacko Dating Sites

Story By Tony Max 27th August 2009

    There are 56 dating and contact sites listed on Sexy Oz but one of the most wackiest (a.l.t. aside) is Follies Bizarre.

Follies has the rare distinction of actually having real and genuine contacts, people that actually do what they say in their ads according to Follies Web Mistress . The site also sports thousands of erotic pictures, the creme de la creme of the Internet porn filtered through the erotic eye of Follies designer Kelly Kniskersdown.

Now you are probably thinking already that this is a spoof.  However, contrary to the wierd name of the site's founder, Follies does actually seem to live up the marketing hype.

There is something else special about Follies and that is their marketing strategy. They don't go about it like other dating sites. Their approach is multi level marketing where the members themselves sell Follies membership on the basis that the customer is satisfied enough to tell others about it.

This is a bit like Amway or certain telephone companies that sell through customers satisfaction and their willingness to get involved in selling the company to increase their earnings.

American Underwear Or American Porn?

Story By Tony Max 14th June 2009

    The US clothing retailer American Apparel is accused of using porno imagery in its advertising to sell women’s sporting and undergarments.

The company has come to the attention of porn hating lobbyists over ‘sexually exploitative images’  on their Australian website.

The website uses flash slide shows of women modelling sport and underwear garments in, according to the Sydney Morning Herald and the lobbyists, sexually charged poses that look like they belong on the pages of a pornographic magazine and not on a website selling tank tops and socks.

Some of the provocative images have also been used in banner advertisements on several Australian websites and in street magazines.

The Australian website has pictures of a young woman it says is "Liz, an American Apparel Melbourne retail employee". In one shot, the former Melbourne retail assistant is pictured topless, in a short skirt, her long hair covering just one breast. In another, she is lying provocatively in a leotard, on an unmade bed.

The company has stores in Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide. Its staff appear in advertising campaigns that are sometimes shot by its LA-based founder, Dov Charney, whom the press smears as a sexual predator following failed sexual harrassment proceedings.

Apparently, (pun intended) the company asks sales applicants to submit up to three photos of themselves as part of the job application process.

Katrina George of Women's Forum Australia, condemned the company's use of "dangerous" and "pornographic" images.

"It goes without saying that most of the images of women on that website are overtly sexualised and some of them you would have to call pornographic. It's another example of the normalisation of pornography in popular culture."

Ms George said it was also concerning that the men on the site were not sexualised in the same way women were.

The Australian Advertising Standards Bureau's chief and executive officer, Fiona Jolly, was unavailable for comment but The Sun-Herald says that it has not received any complaints about the pictures.

Ms George also raised concerns that young American Apparel staff might feel "pressured" to appear in the company's provocative advertising campaigns. However, a spokeswoman for American Apparel said it only used staff who applied to take part.

"We very often photograph employees to appear in ads and catalogues, on our website and in-store art," said the spokeswoman. "Employees and fans of the company apply to model for us on a daily basis, we also sometimes scout them on our own. Photo shoots are often done with members of our creative team or other employees, like in Liz's case."

Katrina George does not appear to distinguish between semi-nude photography and pornography. The pictures look like common mobile phone pics of delicious babes seen everywhere on the net and the beach to us and raises the question: Is beauty pornography in the minds of some people? What do you think, here is the link to American Apparel:

Brothel Raids In Sydney

May 30, 2009

Police joined Immigration officers and Council workers to target brothels in the Liverpool area that were operating outside council approval and allegedly employing illegal immigrants.

Of the 11 brothels and five adult shops inspected, three premises were operating illegally and were directed by council officials to close.

Two illegal immigrants were found out of more than 50 people who were questioned.

The NSW Fire Brigade Safety Unit was also involved in the operation and detected a number of fire code breaches.

In another incident police seized drugs and cash in a raid on a brothel in inner-Sydney.

Police from Strike Force Constance, set up in 2008 to investigate drug supply from the brothel, searched the property on Darlinghurst Road, Kings Cross, on Friday.

A quantity of powder, believed to be heroin, drug paraphernalia and an estimated $1 million in cash were seized, police said.

Power tools, computers, clothing and other items suspected of being the proceeds of crime were also seized.

A 47-year-old man was arrested at the scene and later charged with four offences, to appear at Parramatta Local Court on Saturday.

The brothel has been closed for 72 hours.

Brooke Shields Wishes She Had Sex Earlier

27 May 2009

Story By Tony Max

Asked about her one big regret in life former child star Brooke Shields had a surprising answer: she said she regretted not losing her virginity sooner.

"I think I would have had sex a lot earlier," the actress told a health magazine.

"I think I would have been much more in touch with myself."

Shields, 44, explained that losing her virginity sooner could have helped her with her body image as a young adult.

"I think I wouldn't have had issues with weight - I carried this protective 20 pounds (in college). It was all connected," she says.

"I think I would have lost my virginity earlier than I did at 22."

 "The older I get, the younger I feel," the actress says. "Growing up, I was always the kid, but I spoke like an adult and was in adult roles ... I always thought when you get older, you’ll want to slow down, but I want to do even more."

 Brooke Christa Shields was born on 3ist May 1965 in New York. She was introduced to modeling by her actor mother as a baby of eleven months for commercials. Later at eleven she played a child sex worker along side Susan Sarandon, as her mother, in Louis Malle’s Pretty Baby.  This caused a scandal and Brooke appeared before a Congressional inquiry testifying that some of the most titillating scenes in the movie were in fact body doubles.

At age fifteen, another scandal broke out when nude photos of Brooke aged ten appeared in the press. Both Brooke and her mother tried to get them suppressed but a court ruled the photos were art and the copyright owners had a binding legal contract.

Brooke Shields seemed  to capture the essence of the virgin-whore yet she also appeared in commercials warning teen girls against the perils of having sex too early.

 In 1980's Blue Lagoon, the movie for which the teenage Shields is probably most famous, her hair was reportedly glued to her breasts to prevent them from showing. In her autobiography, On My Own, written at sixteen, she said her intention was to abstain from premarital sex. Her contract with her publisher reputedly required her to remain a virgin for a specified number of years after publication of the book. She received a Golden Raspberry Award as Worst Actress for Blue Lagoon in 1980, and Speed Zone in 1989. She was also nominated for Endless Love in 1981, and Sahara in 1984.

 Recently Brooke has been described as a Roman Catholic .  She is married with two children.


China Demolishes Erotic Theme Park

Monday, 18 May 2009
Story By Tony Max & Associated Press

A sex theme park that featured explicit exhibits of genitalia and sexual culture is being demolished before it can even open, a government spokesman in southwestern China said today.

The park, called "Love Land" by its owners, went under the wrecking ball over the weekend in the city of Chongqing, said the spokesman, who like many Chinese bureaucrats would give only his surname, Yang. The park was inspired by South Korea's Loveland on Jeju Island.

Yang refused to give the reason for the demolition or other details. However, photographs of the adult-only park had circulated widely on the Internet over the weekend, prompting widespread mockery and condemnation.

Exhibits had included giant-sized reproductions of male and female anatomy, dissertations on how the topic of sex is treated in various cultures and what the official China Daily newspaper called "sex technique workshops."

The demolition highlights conflicted views on sex in modern China, where a prudish attitude toward discussion of sexuality is paired with an almost clinical approach to its physical aspects.

Sex is not a topic for open discussion in China, where government figures show only 7 percent of women and slightly over 8 percent of men get immediate medical help for sexual problems.

While erotica is banned and sex education virtually non-existant, shops selling sex toys and related items stand out prominently in many neighbourhoods. Whilst extra marital sex is widely tolerated. Prostitution, while technically illegal, is widespread and the keeping of mistresses among prominent businessmen and Communist Party officials is considered commonplace.

Such attitudes are blamed in part for risky sex and ignorance about birth control among minors. With public discussion of sex so limited, there is relatively little awareness of sexual harassment and abuse and laws and regulations covering such matters are weaker in China than in many countries.


Bum Bra Delight
Story By Tony Max
14th March 2009

  

     The Aussie press is buzzing  with disgust and loathing at this new body former.

It retails for 69 dollars and is designed to shape your peaches perfectly by lifting your buttocks and flatening the stomach.

The Double-O Thong is a mix of cycling shorts, thongs and control pants. When on, the elastic straps (butt booster bands) at the top of each thigh pull in so your bum is pulled higher and rounder.

The bum bra is snug and comfortable to wear and whilst designed to wear underneath clothing it has obvious fetish appeal. So what does the Aussie press think about it:

 Sydney Morning Herald:  ' Sounds good. Except look at it. What woman would be caught dead in this flesh-toned fetish gear?' 

NineMSN: '..monstrously unattractive contraptions..'

And WA Today:  '.. find it hard to imagine anyone actually buying this contraption. It not only looks terrible - and terribly uncomfortable - but I can't see how any woman's figure would be improved by wearing it.'

    They hate it so much it must be fantastic. I always have to pinch myself when reading the Aussie press and remember everything is upside down in Australia.  The bum bras are made in the northern hemisphere.

Nudists descend on NZ for naturist festival

23rd Feb 2009

    Mr Chute, 32, an air force engineer, of Palmerston North, was among more than 130 other naturists or nudists who descended on Te Marua, Upper Hutt in New Zealand for the 57th national festival of the Naturist Federation.

The week-long event, which started on Sunday, has attracted sun-lovers from as far away as Britain and Germany to the park-like camp at the foot of the Rimutaka Range.

Wellington Naturist Club president Ken Mercer said the warm weather was playing a big part in the success of the event, which includes team games, miniten a form of tennis and petanque. His wife, Judith, said many non-nudists had misconceptions about naturist camps. "They just don't know what to expect."

June Campbell-Tong, of Whitby, has been a passionate supporter of nudity for 45 years. "It's beautiful, it's wonderful," she said. "I can't wait to come out here it's a stress release. People can come here and forget the outside world."

She said that, in today's busy world, people could forget to relax, and becoming a naturist could help to solve a lot of the stress involved with tough economic times.



The Lost Art of Beachobatics

Steve Meacham
January 14, 2009

    LONG before it became the preserve of buffed bodybuilders and flimsily clad beach volleyball players, the sands of Bondi played host to another sporting discipline that simply oozed sex: "beachobatics".

For a few short years, immediately before and during World War II, a group of muscle men and agile young women would gather at the southern end of the beach. There they'd strip off into the most daring costumes of the day and contort their sun-browned bodies into complex human pyramids. Everyday thoughts of economic depression and global warfare were temporarily suspended.

The exploits of these Bondi beachobats were lost to history until the discovery of a cardboard box full of 290 medium-format negatives taken by a man now belatedly acknowledged as one of Australia's most outstanding photographers, George Caddy.

Caddy's talent itself had been forgotten until last year when Alan Davies, curator of photography at the State Library of NSW, received an email from photographer Jon Lewis. "You've got to see these. They're of Bondi and they're sensational. Do you know anything about this bloke George Caddy?"

Davies, who prides himself on his encyclopedic knowledge of NSW photographers, had never heard of him. "Nor had any of my colleagues. There were a lot of people taking photographs in the 1930s and '40s but very few taking interesting photographs. And still less taking pictures which transcended their time."

Caddy, it later emerged, had been a well-known dancing champion, nicknamed The Bondi Jitterbug, in the late 1930s. He was one of the first to shock the staid ballrooms of Sydney with the unashamedly erotic steps of the dance craze that had swept America - a combination of charleston, lindy hop and truckin' whose origins lay in the jazz clubs of Harlem.

But Caddy, who had moved with his family to Sydney from Melbourne in 1929 when he was 15, also was a keen amateur photographer whose work was well-known within camera club circles. Like his professional contemporary Max Dupain, Caddy was influenced by the modernist style he'd seen in the New York-based Popular Photography magazine.

And, from 1936 until 1941 when he was enlisted in the Army, he spent most weekends down at the beach, photographing his friends who were members of a local gym.

Davies, however, knew none of this. The only information on the negatives were the dates each photograph had been taken.

Even Caddy's son, Paul, who had found the box when he was clearing out his father's flat in Maroubra after George's death in 1983, had not appreciated how precious the photographs were. He'd taken them with him to Tasmania and forgotten about them for two decades. Davies could see that George Caddy had been an exceptional photographer. But who were his subjects? Where had they learned their acrobatic skills? What equipment had Caddy used? And why was there no record of any of Caddy's photographs after he went into the Army?

For example, there's one photograph showing two perfectly focused, somersaulting gymnasts frozen mid-air, with grains of sand glistening in the sun. Even today, using digital cameras, automatic flash and auto speed, it would be difficult to replicate. So how did Caddy manage it on October 4, 1936?

Davies and his colleagues began searching, detective-like, for clues. Fortunately the State Library was the best place to start.

Regina Sutton, the State Librarian, says Caddy's short but brilliant burst of creativity "would have remained unknown were it not for the Library's resources . . . Books, magazines, electoral rolls, telephone directories and ouronline catalogue all contributed."

The first breakthrough came when Davies found one of Caddy's photographs - a group tableau of seven men lifting five women - in the library's copy of Health And Physical Culture magazine..

It illustrated an article by Wal Balmus, a professional strongman and keen beachobat. Balmus recommended sand gymnastics because it brings "young couples together to enjoy each other's company . . . minus mock modesty". Crucially, it identified the people as members of the Graham Gymnasium.

Colleagues at Waverley Library soon established that "Graham Men's Gymnastic Club" had been formed in Waverley in 1921. A story in the local paper, appealing for more information, struck gold - a reader who had kept an album of Caddy's beachobatic pictures, with the names of the gymnasts on the back of one print.

Bit by bit, the story of Caddy and his extraordinary record of Bondi beach life unfolded. A favourite subject was Valmae Maher, a North Bondi beauty who regularly appeared as a pinup in Truth magazine. On February 3, 1940 she posed provocatively for Caddy, lying in the sand wearing what locals called "a swoon suit" because of its peek-a-boo cut and lace-up panels.

Davies points out the swoon suit was born of wartime necessity: rubberised fabrics were scarce and rationed and the laces allowed one size to fit most.

Another 1940 photograph shows Caddy posing with the camera he used to take his beachobatic shots. To an expert like Davies, it's fascinating: a Voigtlander Bergheil plate camera with a wire frame viewfinder, flashlight attachment and roll-film back, producing 6x6 centimetre negatives.

One of his finest tableau pictures, taken on October 8, 1939 just after the outbreak of World War II, shows no less than eight members of the gym, with the white-capped Alf Stanbrough in the key position of bearer. At the apex is Charlie Lusty - the only member of the group still alive. Within two years, beachobatics had disappeared from Bondi. One by one, the men went off to war - except for Lusty, who was in a protected profession.

Caddy himself was stationed near Brisbane as a gunner in an anti-aircraft battery. When he returned to civilian life in 1946, he seems to have abandoned dancing and photography. The reasons aren't entirely clear, though he married Betty York in 1943, becoming a father when Paul was born the following year. "Home duties probably won out," Davies says.

As well, beachobatics - influenced by the health and fitness philosophies of pre-Nazi Germany - had been born in a more carefree age. Of the seven men in the tableau picture who went to war, "two never came back", Davies says. "Others came back completely shattered."

As for George Caddy, he packed away his cameras, stored his negatives in a cardboard box and put his days as "The Bondi Jitterbug" behind him.

Fortunately, his photographs have survived.

Bondi Jitterbug: George Caddy And His Camera is open at the State Library of NSW and runs until February 22.

Further research revealed details of Caddy's life even his son didn't know. Born in Melbourne in 1914, he was only 17 when his unemployed father walked out on his mother while they were living in Bennett Street, Bondi. In 1936, George found a job as a paper-pattern cutter for the Australian Home Journal, spending his spare time dancing and taking photographs.

    Upper house MP Reverend Fred Nile, tit hater, says he will introduce a private member's bill in parliament to outlaw topless sunbaking on the NSW State's beaches.  Fred, as far as we can guess, does not have a beautiful pair of breasts.

Mr Nile has gained some support from both Labor and Liberal MPs, who are also offended by women’s bodies, but will need support from both parties for his tit hate bill.

Carmel Tebbutt, acting premier, who has a pair of breasts herself, says Topless sunbathing on public beaches is a matter for local councils to consider and should not be banned by the state government,.

"I think that there is community standards that operate here," Ms Tebbutt told reporters in Sydney on Tuesday.

"Government can sometimes get themselves into all sorts of trouble by trying to stray into areas that are better left to individuals."

Ms Tebbutt said while she understood some people might be offended by topless sunbathing, she personally was not affronted by it.  After all, she sees them in the mirror every day.

"It doesn't offend me but I know it does offend some people," she said.

"But we have had topless sunbathing on beaches in NSW for quite some time now."

The real issue was over-exposure to the sun, Ms Tebbutt said, and she urged all beach-goers to cover up this summer.

"It is really an issue about danger and over-exposure to the sun and there is no doubt that any sort of sunbathing, topless or otherwise, exposes you to an increased risk of melanoma," she said.

"So my clear message to people would be to slip, slop, slap and cover up."

I, I, Wot's Goin' On 'Ere Then - Naughty Nudists ?

December 28, 2008

    Nudist Gerald Ganglbauer loves the freedom getting his gear off brings.

"Naturists are a good, honest crowd," he said. "Nobody hides anything. I've never come across the bad behaviour or rudeness that you sometimes get on clothed beaches. We love nature and the freedom of just being yourself."

Gerald, 50, has enlisted the help of Sydney Lord Mayor Clover Moore in his fight to make a secluded beach, Little Congwong, "clothing-optional".

Cr Moore is Mr Ganglbauer's state MP. She has written to Environment Minister and Deputy Premier Carmel Tebbutt asking her to consider amending the Local Government Act.

Under the change, the State Government would have the power to declare the beach, at La Perouse, an official "free" beach without the backing of the council.

"Randwick Council has refused to listen to our concerns, so we're now taking the matter to State Government level," said Mr Ganglbauer, who convenes the Free Beach Action Group.

The approach to Cr Moore is his latest move after a series of letters, emails and meetings with Randwick Council failed to have the beach's classification changed.

"We first made contact about this issue back in 2005. But council is very conservative. It's like talking to a brick wall," he said.

Little Congwong, which has been listed in NSW Government tourism brochures as an "unofficial" nudist area, has been attracting naturists for more than 40 years.

"It's a perfect spot - there's no neighbourhood and it's located behind bushland, so nobody can access it accidentally," said Mr Ganglbauer.

During the European summer Gerald who is resident of inner-city Ultimo often returns to his native Austria, where nude bathing is widely accepted.

In NSW fewer than a dozen beaches have been declared clothing-optional. Despite its long tradition as a popular nudist spot, being naked at Little Congwong is an offence. Signs at the beach state that nude bathing is prohibited.

"In the past few months, I'm aware that two or three fines of about $200 have been issued at the beach, which as far as I know has never happened before," Mr Ganglbauer said.

Randwick Mayor Bruce Notley-Smith was unimpressed.

"Gerald's conducted this big, orchestrated campaign to get his views across," Cr Notley-Smith said. "My constituents have spoken loud and clear: nude bathing at Little Congwong is not appropriate."

Inspector Brad Hodder, of Maroubra police, said: "We'll be actively patrolling the area this summer."

Russian Beauty Crowned Miss World 2008

14 12 2008

 

Photo: AP

Kseniya Sukhinova was crowned Miss World 2008 after beating 108 other international beauties in a glittering African extravaganza held in South Africa on Saturday.

The second runner up was Gabrielle Walcott of Trinidad and Tobago and the first runner up Parvathay Omanakuttan of India.

The 21-year-old blue-eyed blonde stunner, who declared shortly before her win was announced that being nervous made her "feel stronger", takes over from Zhang Zi Lin of China to become the 58th Miss World. Sukhinova becomes the second Miss Russia to go on and win the global event after Julia Kourochkina took the crown in 1992.

"I think I can help people and I want to help people and today if I walk away with this crown I will do that," Sukhinova told judges through a translator after being asked why she should be crowned the winner.

Hailing from Nizhnevartovsk in the north west of Siberia, Sukhinova was dressed in a purple gown, with a decorative neckline and flowing skirt.

Kseniya is a student pursuing a science degree as an engineer of administration from the Tyumen Oil and Gas University.

Contestants, aged 17 to 25, were dressed by South African and Jamaican designers for the final show after a month of galas, rehearsals and a safari adventure trip.

Beauties from 109 countries were reduced to 15 semi-finalists, with India, Russia, Trinidad and Tobago, Angola and South Africa among the five finalists.

The winner of the event, broadcast live to millions of viewers in 187 countries, has to espouse "beauty with a purpose", with charity being one of the main focuses of the pageant.

"Over the years the crown that is worn by the winner is a symbol for fund-raising. Miss World herself, this year the winner from China raised over $US30 million [$45 million] in her year in office," Morley said.

"So perhaps from anything else it does a lot of good things for needy children and old people, which I think is important too."

The competition was originally scheduled for October 4 in Kiev, but was delayed in September over security concerns due to the conflict between neighbours Russia and Georgia.

Goddess Bettie Page Dies At 85

12 12 2008


 Bettie Page, the raven-haired pinup girl whose naughty-but-nice bondage and fetish adventures titillated a generation of young men  in the 1950s has died at the age of 85.

She suffered a heart attack earlier this month, and died in a coma.

Her career, that some have said laid the foundations for the sexual revolution that came to America in the 1960s, started almost by accident after she discovered that posing for amateur photographers in provocative poses and risqué attire made her more money than working as a secretary.

Ms Page’s fame was set after she was hired by Irving Klaw and his sister, Paula, who had a Manhattan film and p[hotographic mail order business selling cheese-cake photos and mild bondage films. The Klaws were prosecuted under strict American censorship laws that saw their business ruined and their photographic work destroyed in the McCarthist era.

Years later, Betty became one of the first models featured in Playboy as a centre-fold including one in 1955 with her winking under a Santa hat.

The magazine’s founder and friend of Bettie in recent years, Hugh Hefner, said: “Bettie Page was one of Playboy magazine’s early Playmates, and she became an iconic figure, influencing notions of beauty and fashion. Her passing is very sad.”

Bettie disappeared for decades, suffering broken marriages and, for many years, devoting herself to Christianity.

She continued, even in her later years to suffer bouts of depression and ill health but resurfaced in the late 1980s to make occasional public appearances to sign photographs of herself, as she was rediscovered by a new generation of fans.

To her own amazement, Ms Page has recently attained something close to cult status. Madonna, Uma Thurman and Demi Moore are among contemporary stars who have at some time adopted the Bettie Page look while in 2006 a feature film The Notorious Bettie Page was a hit at the box offices.

What The Jack Russell Saw

Nov 20 2008

Police nabbed a bloke near Nobbys Beach with his dick in a pasta sauce jar. He led police on a 20 kmh car chase, yep, that's twenty km, Newcastle Local Court heard yesterday. (This is a true story)

Police drew their guns when they suspected the 46 year old, was armed. (Australian police always think the worst).

Instead, they found him partially naked with his penis in a saucy jar, a police statement said.  He attracted attention parked in a no-stopping zone before noon on October 26.

Police believed he was doing something with his hands in his lap and thought that he might have a weapon. When he saw the coppers he drove away, despite them flashing their lights.

It was reported the chase lasted five to 10 minutes, with a top speed of just 20 kmh, before the man stopped. He refused to leave the jar...er...no..car, yes car.

Four officers used batons and capsicum spray to remove him. (From the car not the jar).

They found a 750-millilitre gun ...no, thats jar, yea a 750 millilitre jar around his cock and noted that he attempted to continue "pleasuring himself in between bouts of wrestling".

A search of his car uncovered pornography, a home-made sex toy, women's stockings and a Jack Russell terrier. (We must start subscribing to the Newcastle Herald)

He pleaded guilty to offensive behaviour, resisting police and disobeying a police direction.

Magistrate Elaine Truscott asked the bloke, who represented himself, why he behaved the way he did.  He said he resisted police because he was trying to make himself "decent".

He was fined $600 for offensive behaviour and convicted of the other two offences without further action taken.

Sex Party sets sights on Parliament

17 Nov 2008

"We are serious about sex" is the slogan of a new political party to be launched on Tuesday.

With 4 million Australians accessing pornography, The Australian Sex Party, says it has a real chance of winning seats in State and Federal parliaments.

Its platforms include a national sex education curriculum, reducing censorship, abolishing the Government's proposed internet filter and supporting gay marriage.

Party convener Fiona Patten says the internet filter would put the Australian sex industry out of business in five years.

"It's a real step backwards to where we've come. In fact it's far more censorial then we probably were 30 years ago," she told ABC Radio.

"Material that would be classified X-rated ... is considered illegal content and that is material that is currently available ... in newsagents.

"You will not be able to opt out of that block."

The new party would advocate a national sex education curriculum, something other countries were developing, Ms Patten said.

"There's so much concern about the sexualisation of children, children being exposed to material. I would have thought our first action would be education."

The party will be launched at the Melbourne Sexpo.

Oral Sex On The Rise

September 16, 2008
 

    The Australasian sexual health congress in Perth has been told oral sex, once the exclusive domain of sex workers, has now become a leading part in the sexual repertoire for straight and gay Australians.

"For young people it's an almost universal practice now, with 90 per cent trying it before the age of 30," said Basil Donovan, a professor of sexual health at the University of NSW.

"Among teenagers it's the new abstinence in the Clintonesque sense, because it's a way of having sex without having sex, and there are obvious contraceptive advantages too."

It also has been embraced as a way to better avoid the risks of HIV and other sexually transmitted infections.

Prof Donovan said the practice had become far more popular among heterosexual couples in long term relationships because they were having more sex now than in previous generations and were looking for more variety "to keep things interesting".

He also theorised that improvements in cleanliness was the biggest driving factor in the popularity of oral sex.

"I can't prove it but my theory is that when people only had a bath on Saturday night oral sex was a less attractive prospect," Prof Donovan said. "The aesthetics changed when people started washing more often."

Another sexual health expert, Dr Juliet Richters, author of the book Doing it Down Under, said she believed the rise of feminism was the key to the trend, with women now happier to say what they wanted.

The dramatic shift has occurred in one generation, with people aged over 50 having had oral sex for the first time an average of eight years after they started having standard sex.

"Now it's a one year gap and in many groups the oral intercourse comes first, sometimes by a few years," Prof Donovan said.

"That's a major shift from 80 years ago when it was entirely the work of sex workers and men were never going to get it at home."

He said there were many advantages to the trend and only a couple of disadvantages - increased risk of gonorrhoea among gay men and the increase in genital herpes caused by type one herpes, which normally causes coldsores.

"That's a direct reflection of the fashionablity of oral sex and in that sense people need to be aware that a cold sore is more than just a cold sore."

BDSM Scientific Research Findings

August 25, 2008

    Scientific sex research has found that Australians who participate in bondage and discipline are not damaged or dangerous, and might even be happier than those who practice "normal" sex.

The research showed two per cent of adult Australians regularly partake in sadomasochism and dominance and submission-type sexual role play.

Contrary to commonly-held stereotypes, they are not doing so in reaction to sexual abuse or because they are "sexually deficient" in some way, according the study of 20,000 Australians by public health researchers at the University of NSW.

"Our findings support the idea that bondage and discipline and sadomasochism (BDSM) is simply a sexual interest or subculture attractive to a minority," Associate Professor Juliet Richters and her colleagues wrote in the Journal of Sexual Medicine.

The findings showed that BDSM play is more common among gay, lesbian and bisexual people, and that participants were more likely to have been more sexually adventurous in other ways.

"However, they were no more likely to have been coerced into sexual activity and were not significantly more likely to be unhappy or anxious," said Prof Richters, author of the book Doing It Down Under.

Men who take part in BDSM may be happier, with results showing they score significantly lower on a scale of psychological distress than other men.

The researchers did not study why this was, but suspect it might simply be that they're more in harmony with themselves because they're into something unusual and are comfortable with that.

Prof Richters says the findings go against professional views of BDSM.

"People with these sexual interests have long been seen by medicine and the law as, at best, damaged and in need of therapy and, at worst, dangerous and in need of legal regulation," she said.

There is also an assumption, mostly among the general public, that people involved in BDSM were sexually deficient in some way, "and need particularly strong stimuli such as being beaten or tied up to become aroused".

She said she hoped the results of this research will help change these stereotypes.

HOT LUBE
29 07 2008

   

    Australian Customs has seized more than 100 bottles containing illegal liquid steroids hidden inside sexual lubricant packaging. The bottles are said  to contain prohibited performance and image enhancing drugs from Thailand.

Customs is investigating the sophisticated drug smuggling network after the bottles, labelled as "gay lube oil", were seized in five states since the start of the year.

Customs national manager of investigations Richard Janeczko said the so-called gay lube oil contained various active ingredients including testosterone and deca durabolin. He said these drugs could not be imported into Australia without a permit from the Therapeutic Goods Administration.

"Despite the professionalism of this smuggling operation, Customs officers were not fooled by the labelling and its misdescription,"

He said the detection was a reminder that the use of performance and image enhancing drugs was not confined to elite athletes.

"These substances have the potential to cause serious health risks," he said.

<>Customs has executed search and seizure warrants on premises throughout Australia. and number of prosecutions are expected.

The maximum penalty for smuggling such goods into Australia is five years in prison and a $110,000 fine.

Naked Chicken Protestors Arrested

21 July 2008


    Three animal rights activists have been arrested under new "annoyance" laws after a semi-naked protest at KFC in Sydney's CBD on 15th July.

The group PETA believes the trio are the first to be arrested under the powers of causing annoyance or inconvenience to World Youth Day pilgrims. However, a police spokesman said the arrest was due to offensive behaviour, an offence that existed prior to the new laws.

The three women, wearing only underwear and some tape to cover their nipples, were protesting inside a cage outside the KFC restaurant on George Street, at the corner of Bathurst Street. They had a banner that read: "Chicks agree, boycott KFC", PETA Asia-Pacific's director Jason Baker said.

Police  arrested the women - aged 20, 22 and 31 - and placed them inside a paddy wagon, Mr Baker said.

“One of the officers said: 'We have the new nuisance regulation this week for World Youth Day,' " he said.
"I said: 'Are you serious?' I thought it doesn't start until tomorrow, and was [being challenged in court] anyway."

However, a police spokesman indicated the women were arrested for protesting naked, "which is an offence".

"I don't think they were arrested under the new legislation, if that's what you are asking."
But Mr Baker said the group had conducted naked protests in the city before, and no members had been arrested.

"I'm shocked. We have protested many times in Sydney, and at this KFC before. We had 24 people naked in Pitt Street just six weeks ago ... we've never had problems."

The women have not been charged yet and are being questioned at a police station, the police spokesman said.

Failure to comply with the new WYD laws can attract a penalty of up to $5500.

Too Beautiful To Be A Teacher

10th May 2008

That is the fate of Lynne Tziolas who appeared nude with her husband Antonius in Cleo woman’s magazine. When the Department of Education found this out they gave her the boot from her primary teaching job. But Lynne isn’t going to take it.  She is fighting back by taking legal action against the Department for wrongful dismissal.

The schools don’t like their teachers showing off their bodies and those that do are in breach of the code of conduct that says….. Teachers must act professionally by hiding their bodies because bodies are shameful things and must be hidden from children, or something along those lines. Ed.

Lynne Tziolas, 24, was called into her principal's office last Friday and told her year-long contract at the primary school was terminated.

"I was told … my actions had breached the code of conduct," said Mrs Tziolas, who appeared with her husband, Antonios, in a Cleo article about sex. 

The article, headlined "Buck naked, where couples talk about their sex lives", included pictures of couples embracing.

During a meeting with the principal, Julie Organ (real name), and the local schools dictator er.. director,  Mrs Tziolas was issued with a letter. "I refer to an article in the magazine Cleo in which your photograph appears accompanied by an article about your personal life," the letter said.

Mrs Tziolas said she had had no course for appeal before the decision to axe her. "It was almost like I was guilty until proven innocent." She said she was stunned by the school's response and said it could end her public school career. She was guilty because she has a beautiful body and showed it off.

Mr Tziolas, 45, also a teacher, is concerned the furore will affect his chances of getting a job in the NSW public education system. He said he and his wife did not regret the picture and would do the story again.

The Department of Education said it would investigate.

Sex - A Cure For The Blues?

21 03 08

    Depressed women have more sex than those who are happier, regardless of whether they are in a relationship or not, a study of Australians has found.

A survey of Melbourne women presented at an international mental health conference has concluded that females who suffer from mild to moderate depression have a third more sexual activity than those who are not.

They also had more sexually liberated attitudes, a bigger variety of sexual experiences and, if single, were more likely to partake in casual sex, Dr Sabura Allen, a clinical psychologist at Monash University, said.

``It was more sex and more of everything from kissing to petting, foreplay and intercourse,'' said Dr Allen, who studied the recent sexual experiences of 107 depressed and non-depressed women who were in relationships.

``We knew this anecdotally from clinical samples but this is the first time it's been shown in research.''

She said depressed women were likely seeking out sexual intimacy more often to help feel more secure.

``When people are depressed they feel more insecure about their relationships and concerned that their partner may not care about them or find them valuable,'' Dr Allen said.

``Having sex helps them feel that closeness and security.''
 
Asked whether intercourse could be an effective balm for depression, the psychologist said ``we really don't know but we presume it helps as it gives these women opportunities to be close to their partner and loved.''

The team also is investigating depressed single women and has found a trend towards more casual sex than happier singles.

Dr Allen said Australian couples tend have sex between once and three times a week, with ``very much the majority in the once a week group''. Single women have it ``significantly less'', but the same is not necessarily true of single men.

The study, soon to be published in a British medical journal, was presented today at the International Congress on Women's Mental Health in Melbourne where the latest research in mental illness and hormone-related conditions is being showcased.

CLOCKS TICKING ON SEX - 3 MINUTES
06 03 08

    The best sex should last between three and seven minutes American experts have concluded.  But Australian sex therapists commenting on the findings say most Ozi men want it to last considerably longer while Ozi Sheilas were not bothered if it was over in a tick.
   The study is the first to review the length of time people fuck.  A random sample of Americans and Canadians do penitrative sex from seven to 13 minutes.  Fucking lasting 3 to 7 minutes was deemed to be too short and over 13 minutes too long.  The study published in The International Journal of Sex Medicine is designed to allay the unrealistic anxieties of couples about the length of time they are fucking.
  A researcher said that in the male fantasy of male sexuality men have large penises, rock hard errections and can go for it all night long.  Many people have this fantasy.
    The results of this study provides a realistic and not a fantasy model of fucking which is useful for treating people with sex problems and may prevent problems arising from unrealistic expectations.  Little research is available about Australians ideas about fucking, though its probably similar to Americans and Canadians.

ACHTUNG!
GERMANS FLYING HIGH
30 01 08

   A German tourist operator is offering German Ossis an opportunity to fly nude. The German Ossis are East Germans who, under communist rule, were free to practice public nudism at holiday destinations and it was a very popular activity.
    "In the former East Germany, naturist holidays were a much loved way of spending the best weeks of the year," said the founder of OssiUrlaub De, Enrico Hess.
    The hour long flight will take the nude tourists to nudist holiday destinations in Erfurt in the southeast of the country and Usedom, a Baltic Sea island surrounded by white sandy beaches.
    There will be 50 seats on the jet and it costs E499 (AUD$838).  All passengers will fly in their birthday suits but the cabin crew will be dressed for the occasion.

Lubricated Abroad

6th January 2008

    Aussies have a reputation abroad as piss pots, they can't relax without ethanol and other mind reducing drugs shrinking their cerebral cortexes. Recent tourist articles extolling the delights of exotic destinations where Australians let down their hair like this one on Mexico where - 'waitresses go around asking tables if they want shots during their meal. If you order one she blows a whistle and the entire place cheers for you as she performs a whole routine before giving you the shot which includes pinching your nipples.' Just shows what sexy - hic - fun Aussies are sampling.
    "We went to a club called Senor Frogs which opens as a restaurant then turns into a club (like most places in Cancun). They have an MC all night who gets people to come up on stage in between songs for competitions such as who can scull a beer the quickest or who can strip the quickest. The loser of every competition has to go down the waterslide which is inside the club and takes you out into the lagoon."  Presumably where you drown.
    Other destinations of lubrication include Thailand where drinks are cheap, Ibiza and Paris where the stars go to party. Don't forget London where the beer is warm and the pick pockets are legendary around drunks lubricated to the eyeballs and ready for the pickin'.
    In Hanoi where the clubs only sell spirits the patrons literally melt off their stools. They are surrounded by waiters pressing more lubrication down the throats of their customers.
    A vietnamese girl recently told me about her experience with Aussies in Vietnam.  She works in a restaurant in Hanoi where Americans, French English and Australian tourists eat.  The Americans and Australians are the worst, she said.  The Americans are loud drunks whereas the Australians are quieter.  'Our Aussie friend always came around to our place and hung out with us students at the coffee shop but he never asked any of us girls out.  He was always drunk and told us several times he was going off for sex with the local sex workers in the afternoons.  He was nice but there was something wrong.'
    Yes it's called alcoholism. Very unsexy.
    Facts tourists should know: (a) Alcohol shrinks the testes and causes brewers droop. (a) Alcohol is used by smart operators to comatose tourists into spending all their dough and by robbers to carry out their trade.  (b) Alcohol and other drugs is best avoided when traveling abroad. You won't read this in the Sydney Morning herald or glossy tourist brochures - only on Sexy Oz where the men are are stiff and sober.  Wowsers! Us!!
