Kes: Hey, I thought the Brits were supposed to be repressed and uptight! It's still pretty difficult to find erotica/porn through the National Library Service (the Library for the Blind and Handicapped, branch of the Library of Congress), and forget the RFBD; I once ordered an audio cassette version of "The Pearl" (the Victorian erotic journal, not the medieval poem), and it sounded like they wheeled out the oldest most disapproving old lady from the collection of ancient retired librarians. Seriously, listening to someone read as if she is sucking lemons just kind of detracts from one's reading pleasure. Thank goodness for Bookshare, which accepts what the users scan and upload, so it reflects all flavors of sexuality. Ironically, I read a lot less erotica now than I used to.
Still, if you go to Google and enter the search terms
kestrell porn
I'm the second hit you get. The first features live kestrels, so I don't hold it against my fellow blogger.

Okay, I already knew about Porn for the Blind because the day Wired did an article on it at least three people sent me the link, so it is nice to know that people are listening when I give my speech about blind people are sexual, too, but really, all the porn bits submitted for description were obviously submitted by guys and really, when I was sighted I once had to explain to a blind woman what was going in during a dorm viewing of "Deep Throat," which seemed to put a damper on things for the guys present because once two women start discussing the details of a porn movie, well, talk about sucking the fun out of the room.
Sorry for getting sidetracked, here's the link tot he column

Note, the Bloggess is totally not about being PC, consider this a warning, and someone should explain to her about text-to-speech, but it won't be me 'cause the Web page formatting for the site she is on is a mess.
Also, check out
last week's column on the unicorn dildo

which was just so strange and wonderful I felt the need to mention it, appropos of absolutely nothing, while having dinner with LJ user Issendai and a mystery woman (okay, I know who she is but I'm not sure she's on LJ, so that part is a mystery) at ReaderCon.
Sometimes I think The Bloggess sounds a little like me, if I was from Texas and married to a Republican and wasn't an orphan and had a father who was a taxidermist. Or maybe The Bloggess just acts like crack on my own hyperventilating prose style.
