Falwell claims that a gay New York City man improperly draws people to
a site by using a common misspelling of the reverend's name as the site's
domain name.
A federal judge sided with Falwell, who runs a Virginia-based ministries,
on grounds that Christopher Lamparello's domain name was nearly identical
to the trademark bearing Falwell's name and could confuse Web surfers.

Sex and aging: Removing taboos, restoring respect
The public misidentifies sexuality among the elderly as humorous and sometimes
even disgusting, panelists said at a discussion about aging and sexuality
hosted by the NYU Center for the Study of Gender and Sexuality last night.
Four panelists shared their personal experiences as well as their views
about age and sexuality at Aging, Sexuality and Intimacy.
The discussion was part of Defiant Desires at NYU, a series focusing on
types of intimacy that the mainstream typically ignores.
The centers director, Don Kulick, opened the discussion by showing
a 16-minute clip of the film Still Doing It, which tells
the stories of older women who are still discovering parts of their
sexuality.

What's Wrong With Mastubation?
Masturbation is gross, immoral and not something to be discussed in a
school newspaper or on a college campus.
That's what a loud, handful of people would like us to believe.
But attitudes toward masturbation are quickly changing as people are
starting to believe that it is safe, natural and educational.
"As we mature culturally and age wise, masturbation has become
accepted as part of human nature," said former assistant manager
of The Shed, Ziggy Williamson. "It's becoming something that isn't
a big deal anymore."

Would You Volunteer For Sex Research?
I would imagine ejaculating into a plastic cup at a sperm bank is hard-unless,
of course, that's your fetish. But supposing sterilized environments aren't
your thing, would you volunteer to climax in front of scientists, scrutinizing
your every twitch? From Alfred C. Kinsey's comprehensive interviews to
studying the brain behind the O-face, you've got to wonder: What is going
on in these labs, who's funding it, and how do I sign up?

Police investigate sex offender slayings
A day after two sex offenders were found shot to death in separate towns
in Maine and a suspect killed himself on a bus in Boston, investigators
said Monday they still didnt know how or if the three men were connected.
We dont have a link, we dont have a connection, and
we have really more questions than we have answers as to what sparked
this violence, Maine Public Safety Department spokesman Stephen
McCausland said Monday.

Experts ponder a future of new sex gizmos, robots
When America's top sex researchers gathered recently to discuss the next
decade in their field, some envisioned a future in which artificial sex
partners could cater to every fantasy.
"What is very likely to be present before 2016 would be a multi-sensual
experience of virtual sex," said Julia Heiman, director of the
Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender and Reproduction at Indiana
University, Bloomington.
"There is a possibility of developing erotic materials for yourself
that would allow you to create a partner of certain dimensions and qualities,
the partner saying certain things in that interaction, certain things
happening in that interaction."

This Weeks Strange Sex Laws
There are some laws that should have been taken off the books many
years ago. As incredible as it may seem it's still illegal to:
In Carlsbad, New Mexico, it's legal for couples to have sex in a parked
vehicle during their lunch break from work, as long as the car or van
has drawn curtains to stop strangers from peeking in.
A Florida sex law: If you're a single, divorced, or widowed woman,
you can't parachute on Sunday afternoons.
Women aren't allowed to wear patent-leather shoes in Cleveland, Ohio--a
man might see the reflection of something "he oughtn't!"
No woman may have sex with a man while riding in an ambulance within
the boundaries of Tremonton, Utah. If caught, the woman can be charged
with a sexual misdemeanor and "her name is to be published in the
local newspaper." The man isn't charged nor is his name revealed.
Liquor and sex always seem to go together, even in the writing of laws.
Maryland prohibits the selling of condoms through vending machines in
gas stations and stores--with one major exception. Prophylactics may
be dispensed by a vending machine only "in places where alcoholic
beverages are sold for consumption on the premises."
Vending-machine condom sales, on the other hand, are banned in such
states as Hawaii, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
Yes, you may purchase a pack of gum, a candy bar, some potato chips,
or a soft drink from a vending machine--but, alas, absolutely no condoms!
And in Texas, no one other than a "registered pharmacist"
may sell condoms or other kinds of contraceptives "on the streets
or other public places." No, not even physicians! Anyone who tries
to make a few extra bucks doing this will be severely prosecuted for
the dire act of "unlawfully practicing medicine."
No one may purchase a package of condoms at a corner drugstore anywhere
in Nebraska. Only physicians can sell them while practicing medicine.
In Arkansas, condoms can be sold only by physicians and other medical
practitioners. Delaware allows the sale of condoms only by doctors and
wholesale druggists.
Kentucky and Idaho limit condom sales to medical practitioners and
licensed pharmacists, but their license to sell the items may not be
hung on a wall where it can be seen by customers. Maine, on the other
hand, licenses condom sellers, and the license must always be on public
display.
Nevada, with thirty-five legal bordellos, has no condom problem; the
law there requires that condoms be made readily available at each brothel.
The use of condoms in Nevada brothels is compulsory. No condom, no sex.
