Playboy without bubbles, anyone?

Who is confusing whom here?

Playboy, the American publishing phenomenon which made millions through the sophisticated art of air-brushing, has announced an app for the iPad. It will offer "uncensored" content of current and back issues.


What Playboy didn't mention is that Apple has a rigid policy about nudity in anything available through the Apple App Store. And they wonder why they do so poorly in the teenage male demographic.

Back to Playboy, which also announced plans for a "non-nude" version of its app.

A non-nude Playboy sounds like a novel without words. A recipe without ingredients. Champagne without bubbles.

I'm confused.

He's a male teenager - of COURSE he's thinking about sex.


VYOOS EDITORIAL: A COMMITTEE STRIKES AGAIN
A government study has found that one-third of Japanese males aged 16 to 19 are not interested in sex, almost exactly double the number not interested in sex in 2008.


Please note that word "government" in the above paragraph.

We have three questions for the Japanese government officials in charge of this survey:

Are you sure you polled males?

Are you sure they were aged 16 to 19?

Are you sure the subject in question was sex?

Were you ever a teenage boy?

Okay, that's four questions. However, the answer to the fourth question in my own case is yes, and I went to an all boys' school, and I can report with a high degree of conviction that the percentage of all boys I knew in the 16 to 19 age group who were not interested in sex was approximately zero.

Probably less.

Either Japan is a very different place than I thought, or Japanese government committees are very similar to their western counterparts.

Bride misses her own wedding

April 3rd 2010 02:47
lego wedding

A drink with a friend before your wedding is a tradition Siobahn Watson was determined to follow. Now she wishes she hadn't.

Watson, 24, of Manchester, England, a telesales assistant, was engaged to Aaron Todd, also 24, a bricklayer. A white Rolls-Royce had been hired, the bridal party's gowns had been designed, fitted and paid for, guests had been invited and a lot of money had been spent on the function at which everyone would celebrate the happy day.

Unfortunately, Watson's final drink as a single woman turned into something of a final fling as a single woman. Not all the details have been released, but we can read between the sheets.

Some hours before her wedding, Watson went out for that fateful drink with the unnamed "friend". They drank. They drank some more. At some point Watson lost her mobile phone. At some other point, the two stopped drinking and went to a motel.

We know only two things for certain that went on in that motel room. One is that Siobahn Watson went to sleep. We know that because we have been told the other thing that happened: she woke up.

She woke at about the same time that she was supposed to be saying, "I do."

Later, Watson was quoted as saying, "When I realised I had missed my own wedding, I started shaking. I could not believe I had been so stupid."

Aaron Todd, who had spent longer than expected standing, alone, by the altar, while friends and family tried continuously to ring Siobahn on her lost mobile phone, was quoted as saying, "She won't get a second chance.''

The trial continues of an Australian man who was having sexual intercourse with a woman in a vehicle at a petrol station and who refused to stop having sexual intercourse despite police arriving and requesting him to do so.

The court was told that police indicated from outside the locked vehicle that they wanted the couple to cease having sex. Exactly how the police indicated their requirements was not made clear in media reports of the court case

iPhone

A man discovered by his wife to be taking pictures of his genitals with his iPhone and then sending the pictures to another woman, has denied responsibility. It was all due, he said, to an "iPhone glitch".
