IML, the International Mr. Leather conference came and went last week here in Chicago and we’re still recovering from the dizzying hurricane of leathermen, human dogs, bondage queens, otters, bears and furries!
There was two of every kind, and then some at this sexual menagerie of all kinds of fetishes last weekend.
The colorful sexual diversity expo included forced feminization, lovingly demonstrated by Marc Felion on listener RuffnStuff in this YouTube video from the event.
On today’s show we’re talking with Sal-E about the sexual fetish expo that took place here in Chicago and how the internet has changed all our expectations of what is far out and kinky.
After seeing Two Girls One Cup video, nothing seems weird or extreme anymore and that is probably a good thing. Here’s a link to people’s reactions to the internet sensation. I won’t tempt you with the link to actual video but if you really want to watch it, you can find it easily enough. Once you’ve watched Two Girls One Cup, nothing at IML will shock you.
Once we’re able to see our sexual desires for what they really are and not layered in shrouds of mystery we can fully begin to enjoy life and sex for what it really is- pleasure and fun.
Click here to see photos from IML 2008 in Chicago.
We’ve also got some odd fashion news: a severed foot wearing a sneaker is found in Canada, again. It seems this is the fourth foot to wash ashore. We don’t know who is behind this gory aputating, presumably murderous spree, but it needs to stop.
Is Rachel Ray an Islamic jihadist or does she have bad fashion sense? It seems that some people are so upset that she is wearing something that looks like a Palestinian scarf that Dunkin Donuts had to pull the ad. Conservative Michelle Malkin said ‘It’s refreshing to see an American company show sensitivity to the concerns of Americans opposed to Islamic jihad and its apologists.’’
Isn’t that outrageousness just wonderful? You can’t make stuff like that up. It is as if we are all sick of all these pro-jihad donut shops popping up everywhere.
Please feed the animals- Feast of Fools.

June 2, 2008 at 07:26Sounds like you guys had a wonderful time!
Otherwise, Michelle Malkin is an idiot, and a big hypocritical idiot at that…
She blogged a press release by a group of student protesters opposing recruiters on campus without removing contact information first, and then just told them to grow up when they started getting death threats and the like…
…Then she had to move her family when people opposed to her started putting her home contact info and maps to her house and the like all over the internet, because she started getting death threats and the like. I guess growing up is hard to do.
She’s basically an Asian-American Ann Coulter… in that she mistakes being shrill for insight and screaming for discourse.

June 2, 2008 at 11:13The 2girls1cup video topic will probably get ressurected on myspace. I won’t mention the person’s name, but that video is too gross to watch, and that person would get a laugh at our expense.

June 2, 2008 at 16:26Ok, before I saw a pic from the add I thought Rachel might of been wearing the scarf like in old hollywood movies. Ya know, drapd over her hair then wrapped around her neck once or twice. That old fashioned and totally vintage chic way does sorta look like a tradtional Islamic draping of a womans head scarf. But the way Rachel is wearig it isn’t any way like what Islamics are doing. Excpect that maybe both Rachels and an Islamic womans scarf could both be torn and tattered looking. For Rachel it the tatteredness of the scarf was a style statement and when islamic women scarves are torn a tattered like Rachel’s it just mean she’s poor. This is just so dumb, hundreds of other famous and nonfamous women islamic or otherwise wear scarves like that. So, so, so stupid. On a lighter and more sensible note, I love the segway whistle! half way through this show eveytime a new subject was segwayed in you all had me shouting “segway whistle! segway whistle!!” if it wansn’t blown. Great show ya’ll.

June 2, 2008 at 19:03OK. Who else spent the day asking coworkers - if you had to choose between Cyndi Lauper and Madonna, who would it be.
Fausto - your theory works
Though one guy said he’d rather see Metallica and I told him he must be a McCain supporter.

June 2, 2008 at 19:08P.S. I love how the “you may be interested videos” on youtube above shows Nazi book burning in conjunction with Forced Feminization. Perhaps its the dyslexic niza for nazi.

June 3, 2008 at 01:12Great show guys. I would love to see Michelle Malkin spit and sputter as she learns that she has been a promoter and propaganda tool for the terrorists as she continues to use the honorable label “Jihad” as pointed out in the editorial page of the NY Times yesterday. How “refreshing”!

June 3, 2008 at 02:14Is it just me, or does McCain’s daughter look strangely like Lindsay Lohan?
Love you Sal! Glad to hear you again! Your sultry pics at IML are too much! I never knew you were such a hairy boy.. lol! 
The whole Rachael Ray thing is soooo out of control and stupid. I swear the “right” is grasping at something — ANYTHING– to get everyone talking about terrorism. It’s ridiculous.

June 3, 2008 at 09:18Great show…just listened this morning guys. I had a terrific time at IML too, even though I didn’t get a chance to see you guys. I volunteeered for Stage Crew and got the opportunity to spend about 25 mins with Andy Bell and his partner!

June 3, 2008 at 09:52Sal-E I was bummed to hear that you did not get to connect with the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence more at IML. I talk about the Feast of fools in Los Angeles House all the time. This year the Sisters were invited by Mike Gerle to bless the event and this event was something many sisters were involved in. Perhaps you caught the sisters at a time when their minds were busy thinking about the blessing. I really hope to hear more about your adventures with the Sisters and starting a house in Chicago. I think the task is harder because this is a brand new house so it takes alot of work vs my situation of having an established house in my city that is over 12 years strong and and active group.
This year in Seattle the Sisters have been chosen as the image for pride and they have posters of Sisters on the Metro City Buses and billboards in the city for the up comming Seattle Pride. I feel this is important because of the public awareness aspect and acceptance from the city.
Have a wonderful time in Milwaukee!!

June 3, 2008 at 23:21Great show guys! I would love to see Michelle Malkin spit and sputter as she learns that she has been a promoter and propaganda tool for terrorists as she continues to use the honorable label “Jihad” which has been pointed out in the editorial page of the NY Times yesterday as a desired title. Word right back to here! How “refreshing”!
Also, don’t cring but I’m a Spam lover. I can only eat a few slices a year; it’s so salty. But it works great in dicing up for making “cha-han” (Chinese fried rice) and my partner loves “Spam sushi” which he picks up near his work.
Trivia here: the reason “islander’s” go for Spam is it was introduced to those places by US troops in times of war: Korea, Hawaii, Guam are all big markets for Spam. Now Iraq I’m not so sure…
