For 75 minutes, pretend that there’s nothing shameful about Sex.

… says John Woods (one part of the duo Dr. Carol Queen’s fav The Wet Spots, the other part being Cass King) in an interview on Naked City TV (edited by the multi-talented author / editor / blogger / director / reviewer… shall I go on?… Audacia Ray).
The video cuts between interview and stage time, highlighting some of the couple’s most loved numbers. If you ever have the opportunity to check them out, do.
Naked City is edited by Audacia and is a great extension of the Village Voice — bookmark or RSS feed the site for everything from articles about porn casting, to odd sex toy reviews (bugs?), and even a nod to sex toy retailer blogs (like ours)!
I was caught by the interview’s explanation of what the wet spots are. More than an entertaining and sexy, the performers also allow the audience, if just for the 75 minute set, to be part of an environment where sex is not shameful. Instead, it is celebrated, praised, and enjoyed — all with great harmony, humor, charisma, and if you’re lucky, a live spanking demo.
The Wet Spot’s John also recently appeared, along with some other friends like Essin’Em and Jayme Waxman (catch her Personal Touch videos 20% off at GoodVibes.com), author/editor Rachel Kramer Bussel (some of her books also 20% off at GV, and who’s book Spanked is… eagerly awaited… and has it’s own book trailer, which you can read the recent history of and watch, on Violet Blue’s website) and also CuddleParty co-creator Reid Mihalko in an interesting several-person (including Ron Jeremy) interview in L Magazine’s special feature The Private Lives of Public People.
I just realized this post is pretty link-heavy. Hmmm… clicking through these alone will give you at least 75 minutes of non-shameful sex-related content. (Start with the Wet Spots Video here on Naked City TV.) Enjoy!

I completely agree with this, there is nothing to be ashamed of, it perfectly natural, it’s the purpose of life, to make more life. It’s unfortunate that the current society and culture that will live in has forced us to forget that.
