Interesting Results For The Search "Mobile Sex"

Sometimes jutaposing your particular topic with a cultural obsession will yield some interesting insights into both. And here I thought ALL it would turn up was porn!

Granted, if that's your thing, it's hard to do better than the Mobile Sex Channel. Three screens in, this link definitely becomes NSFW. All the others are work-safe unless otherwise noted.

Bollywood actors are discovering a revolution in techno-paparazzi.

Actual quote: "Unlock the hidden pleasures in your mobile phone with the Purring Kitty! Instantly turn your cell phone into a discreet vibrating personal 'masseur' - turn your phone's vibrations on at will!" The app displays a picture of a cat while doing its thing. Similar but not work-safe: Vibrafoon.

Social-network king MySpace is taking its reputation as a haven for sexual predators just as seriously as it should. Problem: MySpace is mobile now. Mobile phones can be stolen more easily than identities or IP addresses. Related: every mobile-buying parent's nightmare.

"Yes, all this new technology is very exciting, but what does it mean for PHONE SEX?" Regina Lynn speculates in the last couple of grafs.

You know you've been covering mobile for a while when you can ask about the sex appeal of PHONES THEMSELVES without giggling.

Here's a good idea: mobile sex ed.

Here's a bad idea: banning cell phones for prostitutes in a country where prostitution is legal. Let me restate: making it illegal for you to possess a phone based on your legal occupation. The article is a couple of years old and this seems not to have gone anywhere, thank goodness.

And here's a REALLY bad idea. (This one is kind of on the edge between work-safe and not work-safe.) I'm pretty sure that's not supposed to go there.
