Mainstreaming Bondage: Halloween 2012 Brings On The Gimp!

Given what Halloween 2012 is bringing us, this is kind of a reasonable extrapolation of what Halloween 2013 might bring us! Image source: House of Gord.
If you go to Target and ask them if they have a Gimp suit for Halloween, you'll probably get told "No.' But if you go to Target and ask them if they have a "Rubber Suit Man" outfit, they'll tell you yes ... and the costume you will find will be a gimp suit. Don't believe me? Check it out!

"Oh my!" as Anastasia Steele might say, and she'd be the one to say it, because you have to believe that the success of 50 Shades of Gray just might have gotten this particular outfit green-lit for Target. Now that's going mainstream!

We'll have to see if there's a backlash against the suit, now that it's being "noticed" by online media it'll probably hit the mainstream media soon.

The flying monkeys have been bringing in a LOT of negative stories about 50 Shades of Gray of late. The social conservatives never liked it, some feminists never liked it, and a lot of literary types never liked it, even a lot of bondage fans never liked it, and now that the books aren't making headlines by topping the bestseller lists week after week after week, the naysayers are trying to get some traction. And a backlash against 50 Shades could very well be accompanied by a backlash against kink. I hope the hell it doesn't happen, and if it does happen that it gets no traction in the media or the culture, but let's face it ... there's a lot of people out there who hate kink, 50 Shades of Gray and sex generally.

As always, I'll keep you posted.

Jennifer Connelly Gives Me Hope

There's a greasy double dildo between these two butts, and the butt on the left belongs to Jennifer Connelly.

This is why I'm hopeful about some of the more extreme bondage techniques showing up in mainstream films being worn/practiced by A-list actresses someday: because Jennifer Connelly won an Oscar after appearing in a nude double dildo sex scene in the movie Requiem for a Dream. The scene is heavily edited so that major use of the pause button is required to get a clean shot of the action seen above, but there's also a shot of the dildo being inserted (seen from profile so you never see any naughty bits, but there's definitely an image of an oily double dildo between their two butts.

(The insertion scene could have involved a body double, since it was a closeup and you could only see her ass, so I didn't include it. But I like to believe Connelly does her own stuntwork.)

Connelly also did full frontal nudity in Requiem for a Dream though, sadly, it turns out she doesn't shave her pubic hair, which I find hard to believe for someone as unfrickingbelievably hot as her. (Maybe she wears a merkin.)

I totally believe that if it were artistically sound, Connelly would appear in a movie wearing a dental gag and armbinders with her feet in a spreader bar doing two guys at once. She is not fricking afraid to push the envelope sexually, like wimpy-ass "won't do nudity" Jessica Alba.

Fortunately there are other actual hottie actresses to back Connelly up, such as Maggie "I'll totally play a submissive and wear a yoke and a pony girl saddle" Gyllenhaal and Connie "Sure I'll wear a gimp suit and collar and get chained to a spring mattress" Nielson.

The future's so bright I gotta wear shades.
