Fresh off the pseudo-legitimization of their Kanye West-Kim Kardashian "backshots" sex pictures, MediaTakeout is touting "EARTH-SHATTERING SUPER EXCLUSIVE" photos of "two celebs... getting some BOOTY LOVE!!!"

The above image of Rick Santorum came to Gawker's tips line with the subject line "santorum pictures (REAL!!!!)"

Santorum, as followers of politics know, is the Bible-thumping Republican underdog who tied Mitt Romney at last night's Iowa Caucus. Santorum is also, as users of Google and followers of Dan Savage know, a neologism for "the frothy mixture of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the by-product of anal sex."

The filthiest, fakest rumor of the year—Sandra and Jesse's Hitler poopstache shotgun butt sex video—has been denied by both accused participants. Please take your Hitler poopstache shotgun butt sex fantasies elsewhere, like Michelle Bombshell's strip club, maybe.

Have you heard the dirtiest, nastiest, Naziest rumor about Sandra Bullock and Jesse James? It involves anal sex, the barrel of a shotgun, a Hitler poop-stache, and a video camera. It's a Freudian nightmare come to life. It's a myth.

So say statistics, anyway! Gayblog TheSword recently compiled some Craigslist data, and figured out that when men are looking online to do sex with other men, certain cities trend heavily toward the receiving end. Chief among them is Houston—where 70% of folks are looking to fill the void.

Post grannygoss Cindy keeps it relevant today with this brief but layered aside:

We were ever so intrigued by New York's take on the ol' 'increasing popularity of anal sex' trend piece ("[27-year-old 'Jim'] agrees that it seems to be on the rise among his friends but wonders whether it's 'really a cultural shift or just something we ease into semi-contemporaneously as we age, like marriage or buying real estate or listening to jazz rap.'"). Our butts were hungry for more after we finished reading it, so we were excited to see Kurt Andersen picking up the theme in his Imperial City column, entitled "How The Middle Class is Getting Screwed." Then we clicked, and were disappointed.

Anal Sex is Increasingly Popular in the Hetero World [NYMag]

Actress Felicity Huffman, who you'll recall from her role on Desper — wait, does anyone actually watch that show or was the whole thing some weird conspiracy to fill our Us Weekly with pictures of middle-aged ladies we don't care about for a year? Yeah, thought so — anyway, Felicity Huffman, who you'll recall from her eerily convincing turn in that transsexual movie, is many things to many people. She's a star of stage and screen, one half of the Hollywood power couple Stephen Colbert has dubbed Filliam H. Muffman, and — unbeknownst to you until right now — she's also a relationship expert. Or so her soon to be published book, A Practical Handbook For The Boyfriend, would seem to indicate.
