Lane Bryant sure has itself a tempest in an F-cup bra. A post on the company’s blog claimed that “ABC and Fox have made the decision to define beauty for you by denying our new, groundbreaking [lingerie] commercial from airing freely on their networks.” The post went on to attribute the alleged censorship to the buxom, plus-size models in the commercial: “The networks exclaimed, ‘She has … cleavage!’ Gasp!” Meanwhile, scantily clad models “are prancing around on major networks leaving little to the imagination” in Victoria’s Secret’s latest spot.

Eroticism is in the eye of the beholder. In Japan, some women turn to electrically charged squid for sexual satisfaction. In the American world of masochism, one man begged to be tied on a spit and roasted over sizzling coals. His counterpart, a latex-loving dominatrix, reached ecstasy merely watching his pain.

What is abnormal may not necessarily be unnatural, according to sexologists who study the outer limits of the human psyche.

And, increasingly, as seen in a plethora of new books and films — not to mention thousands of sites on the Internet — kinky sex is getting more attention.
