- Good riddance: Now I’ll consider linking to Gamelink again. Jeff Dillon ran one of the largest online adult/porn retailers — San Francisco based Gamelink — and spent his spare time boasting about being “white pride” and said he isn’t racist because he says he “married a slant eyed import.” In June, Dillon was arrested here in SF for running down Trump protestors with his motorcycle. The XBIZ article below utterly fails to mention any of that, which is bullshit.

- “A new report from the Foundation for Responsible Robotics (FRR) called “Our Sexual Future with Robots” (…) examines developments in the field of sexual robotics and explores their potential impact on society. In particular, it addresses the issue of child sex robots, suggesting that we perhaps need new prohibitive laws to be enacted internationally.”

- ““Fanny,” a Japanese-made silicone doll available to the public at the Kontakthof brothel in Vienna, has risen in popularity among the brothel’s clientele to the point where she’s the number one preferred “partner” in the facility.”

- Warning for survivors of sexual assault. “The repeal of a Jordanian law that allowed a rapist to escape prison by marrying his victim was bittersweet news for a Jordanian woman whose daughter was assaulted when she was just 13 years old.”

- If this happens it will usher in an unprecedented era of censorship. “A bipartisan group of lawmakers introduced legislation Tuesday that aims to make it easier to sue and criminally prosecute operators of online classified sites like Backpage.com that have been used to advertise sex workers. The proposed bill would amend the Communications Decency Act to eliminate a provision that shields operators of websites from being liable for content posted by third-party users.”

- An unfortunately anti-sexwork article with interesting information about the takedown of a Yelp for sex work. “While the men came from different, mostly white-collar backgrounds, prosecutors said a disproportionate number were tech workers from the Eastside, men comfortable using their browsers to shop for what they wanted, men who could afford the $300-an-hour rate for sex. One customer, a software-development director for Amazon, even helped construct and maintain prostitution-related websites.”

- BBC is patting itself on the back over this one. “An MP is calling for landlords who offer accommodation in exchange for sex to be prosecuted after the justice secretary told him such arrangements were already a criminal offence.”

- ” For a moment in 2014, the movement to end the censorship of women’s bodies seemed to play a significant role in public discourse. And then, as many conversations on social media do, it just faded away.”

- Warning for survivors of sexual assault. “A millionaire property developer has been cleared of raping a teenager after claiming he accidently tripped and fell on her. … His semen and DNA was found inside the young woman, but he said it was possible he had semen on his hands from having sex with the 24-year-old earlier. … The jury acquitted him in just 30 minutes of deliberations.”

- “Women and girls aged 15-24 account for a fifth of all new HIV infections globally. Nearly 1,000 are infected every day in sub-Saharan Africa. Infused with microbicides, the ring, which sits on the cervix, has been shown to cut infections by 56%.”

- “Comedian Lil Duval (aka Roland Powell) told listeners on The Breakfast Club last week that he’d kill a sex partner if he found out they were transgender. … Transgender author and activist Janet Mock had appeared on the show the week prior …”
