The Chongqing sex scandal is getting very, very interesting. Whatever intrigue was already inherent in a scandal involving a high-ranking Party official and his mistress, raise it to the power of Wang Lijun and Bo Xilai. Let's start here: The femme fatale has been identified as Zhao Hongxi, who was 18 years old in February 2007 when she secretly videotaped herself having sex with Lei Zhengfu, then the party ...

UDPATE, 11/26, 2:20 am: Lei was set up. The video was taken by 18-year-old Zhao Hongxia, the unfortunate lady in this sex tape, in February 2007 . She was hired by the boss of a construction company whose bribes to Lei failed to win him a coveted contract. Here's more info, including pictures of Zhao and Lei's other mistress. Also, Bo Xilai and Wang Lijun were involved, because in Chongqing, of course they ...

We've spliced together Hu Jintao, China's outgoing leader, and Beautiful Agony, a website that... Beautiful Agony began as an experiment*, to test a theory that eroticism in human imagery lies not in the body, but in the face; that film of a genuine, unscripted, natural orgasm can succeed where the most visceral mainstream pornography fails, and that is, to actually turn us on. Hu Jintao and Beautiful Agony ...

Screenshot of original ad after the jump; the above pic is via Weibo, @shdaily. Wanted: Condom Tester. Must Be Female, Good-Looking, Between The Ages Of 18 and 25. No, seriously. The ad has been removed, but for a while, "lively and good-looking women" between 18 and 25 were given the chance to apply to test condoms. Requirements are exactly what you think. Via Shanghai Daily: The company offered each woman ...

Via Kaiser Kuo, here's an official Durex ad on Sina Weibo that has pounced on yesterday's US presidential election results. The caption reads: "The difference between Obama and Romney is..." Ahem. Here's the ad, which was posted 12 hours ago and has been forwarded 43,714 times with 12,750 comments. I'll leave it without comment. ...

Image via 7y7.com A 17-year-old in Anxi, Fujian province tried to cut off his penis to spite his out-of-control teenage and totally normal hormonal drive. Thankfully for him, he was not successful. According to Strait Metropolis Daily, the 17-year-old was at home Saturday, in bed, when he took a knife and tried to castrate himself. His screams startled his parents, who quickly took him to the hospital via h ...

This will (probably) be our last post on the 10th Guangzhou Sex Culture Festival, which concluded Monday. Above (and on Youku after the jump for those in China), a little video I edited featuring pole dancers. If you're more of a picture person, check this out. Happy Sunday afternoon bleeding into evening, everyone. ...

[caption id="attachment_5725" align="alignnone" width="490" caption="Jissbon, by RFH"][/caption] The Guangzhou Sex Culture Festival ended Monday, but we have a couple more related items in the pipeline. For now, check BJC Editor-at-Large RFH's dispatch about the three-day event in The Times: There’s not much actual sex going on at the 10th Annual Guangzhou International Sex Culture Festival – pornography, p ...

We brought you pictures of the 10th annual Guangzhou Sex Culture Festival yesterday evening, but by far the best picture from that event -- which, sadly, ends today -- is the one above. I want you to notice the small gray box that is partially obscuring the picture of the woman's breast on the left side of the image. Censorship fail. Let's make this a caption contest. GO. Runner-up photo: ...

The Guangzhou Sex Culture Festival is always a big deal because, you know, sex. Created in 2003 by Zhang Feng, a soldier-turned government official who goes by "Brother Feng" in his books, Guangzhou's annual sex lollapalooza draws hundreds of thousands of visitors every year. "Sex is like food," Zhang said in a 2010 interview. "It functions at the very root of human society." Everyone has been tittering wit ...

Found in a Nanjing hospital, this device is very much used for what you might think. That is to say, it is not a fleshlight masquerading as a mushroom; it is an artificial vagina that serves the purpose of actual vaginas: to extract sperm from male genitalia. Hard stop. And the best part is that it comes with a screen that shows movies, and can be hooked up to surround sound. Wait, no, that's not the best p ...

Quoting what appears to be an official film synopsis: Due West: Our Sex Journey describes the internal struggle of a young person seeking “love” and “lust” in contemporary society of Hong Kong.  The film reflects the reason why men head North to Mainland to seek pleasure and the general problems exist among Hong Kong girls. It also focuses on the intricate conflict of the two-sided coin of love – affection ...

[polldaddy poll=6531131] Zheng Gang, a PhD student, died while donating sperm at Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology on February 2011, and thanks to a lawsuit his father filed for 4 million yuan, we get to hear all about the country's (world's?) first known case of a man dying while donating sperm. Reports China Daily: Zheng Jinlong, the man's father, claims that the inst ...

We've had our fun with this, now it's time to drop the hammer. Earlier today, Wuhan Evening Paper reported that Zhengzhou's now-infamous "filial pigs" -- a mother and son in a pose suggestive of anything but filial piety -- was in fact based off a statuette from a series called "Hooligan Pigs," created 10 years ago, in which anthropomorphic swine were depicted having sex in a variety of positions. This part ...

Some people really want this sculpture to be just a son massaging his mother, whose quivering eyes are merely grateful and on her ruddy face the arpeggio of delight turned ecstatic is divested of all venereal context. Not really sure why her left nipple is exposed though. Other questions: Why does the pig even have anthropomorphic breasts? Must they be so voluptuous and perfectly positioned, pressed against ...

I can explain this. Some people's minds have not been corrupted by the unseemly elements of our indecorous times. They glimpse a work of art such as this and think of the lessons a mother can pass to her child, who is not at all uncomfortable with her exposed tit. Um. PIETY. By unseemly elements, by the way, I mostly mean liberals, but also pranksters, and middle-aged men who have lost hope, and those young ...

China has been abuzz over orgies recently, thanks to a set of scandalous pictures that surfaced last week featuring three pairs of swingers. (You can see several of these 120-some NSFW photos here.) Amid speculation (since dispelled) that the men were high-ranking government officials, one of the men, Wang Yu, confessed to being in the photos, and he and his wife have since been fired from their jobs and ex ...

From the 9th annual Guangzhou sex festival, November 12, 2011, via Yahoo China. I know, I know, reading what Xinhua has to say about sex must be like reading the part in your mother's 4th-grade book report on Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret where the protagonist buys her first bra and sanitary napkin. Still, here it is: The 10th edition of the festival will host a variety of activities like exhibitions ...

But what is sexual harassment, really? Does leering count? How about intense leering? How about penetrative leering? What about sniffing? Impassioned sniffing? And while we're on the subject... aggressive winking: yay or nay? Here's what Shanghai Metro's official Sina Weibo account, which posted the above picture last Wednesday, had to say about this (as translated by Tea Leaf Nation): “If that’s what you w ...

Shanghaiist has the story, as does the Beijinger. But damn it all if we're letting a sex mushroom get through the day without ribbing it here. On June 17, Xi'an Up Close《西安零距离》aired a story about a "mushroom" that was found in Liucunbu village in Shaanxi province. The reporter, Ye Yunfeng, says at one point: “We can see here that this thing looks a lot like a fungus, with a mushroom head on both sides; at t ...
