The organisers of the Cannes festival have a habit each year of selecting one film with unusually explicit sexual or violent content. Last year Lars von Trier‘s Antichrist caused outrage with its portrayal of sadistic and masochistic acts, and in 2004 the British director Michael Winterbottom shocked audiences with his erotic romance, 9 Songs. Two years earlier Gaspar Noé pushed back the boundaries at the festival with Irréversible, which featured a prolonged rape scene. This year, in contrast, the festival is accused of deliberately keeping the most provocative French film of the season out of all its selected screenings.

Forget about receiving your MFA degree, doing an unpaid internship at a prestigious publishing house or even, you know, having any literary talent whatsoever. There’s a new and efficient way to become a published author: Sleep with a famous male celebrity! As a young writer, I dream of one day writing the next great American memoir. But it’s starting to seem that I’ll have a better shot if I aim for writing the next great American mistress memoir.

Last week, the media was worked into a breathless frenzy over the potential discovery of a “female Viagra.” The results of a new study showed that a prototype drug made by Pfizer, the maker of Viagra, successfully increased blood flow to the genitals — of female rabbits. That was all it took for news outlets to trumpet the imminent arrival of a sex drug for the ladies.

If you think sex in the 21st century sucks, just be glad you don’t live in one of these scifi dystopias. When Big Brother is a peeping Tom and three-penised mutants are eligible bachelors, getting off is a turn-off.
Science fiction is filled with examples of folks who can’t get laid without total weirdness transpiring. We’ve divvied these themes into five categories, and here are some of our favorite post-eroticapocalyptic worlds.

You could be hearing Isaac Asimov and Douglas Adams in a whole new way, if you happen to be in New York on March 5. The Pinchbottom Burlesque is organizing “Naked Girls Reading Science Fiction.” (NSFW pic below the fold.)
The event takes place at “the plush and decadent upstairs lounge at Madame X in Greenwich Village,” and costs $25. Among the readers is Nasty Canasta, who has been known to dress up as a naughty version of both the fourth and tenth Doctors from Doctor Who. (We we wrote about the Pinchbottom Burlesque previously — link includes NSFW pics.) Tor.com attended one of their previous events, devoted to banned books, and wrote:

There’s nothing hotter than feeling your spaceship throb beneath you as it switches into FTL drive. Same goes for the smooth metal touch of a car. Want to get busy with your machine? Here’s a list of people who have.We all know that something special transpires between people and their cars. But sometimes, when that car has its own personality, that bond can get – well – kind of naughty. Let’s just say that the scene in Transformers where Shia and Megan making out on top of Bumblebee pretty much screams threeway. Bumblebee is even playing love songs.

The world’s “first” X-rated fembot literally has no moves Video
By Tracy Clark-Flory
Meet Roxxxy, the “world’s first sex robot.” She has folks buzzing with excitement after her debut at this weekend’s Adult Entertainment Expo (never mind that she isn’t actually the first of her kind). Given the hype, and the use of the term “robot,” you might be envisioning something along the lines of a Real Doll that can actually perform sexy moves — or at the very least do “The Robot.” In reality, she’s more like an X-rated version of Talking Elmo. She can’t walk or move her arms, but when you touch Roxxxy she will purr things like, ” Where you gonna put that?” As creator Douglas Hines demonstrated at the event (video below), clumsily groping at her vagina will elicit a moan; meanwhile, she remains paralyzed in her pre-programed ecstasy.

Women are being invited to get on stage and dance naked in front of hundreds of people – to strike a blow for modern feminism.
Organisers are hoping to recruit more than 100 women “of all ages, shapes and sizes” to perform a “high-energy dance” without any clothes on at the Barbican and Battersea Arts Centre.
The 10-minute frolic is the main feature of Trilogy, a three-part show about feminism that is coming to London for the first time since its Edinburgh Fringe debut last year.

THESE are the raunchy Lady GaGa clips from new song Lovegame that wimpy record bosses were too scared to show.
They got cold feet at the sexy video and BANNED it from being her third single. They’ll release Paparazzi instead.
But I'm not that much of a wuss, so you can see the vid below.
