So I'm looking at the site's stats and notice an influx of visits from an, uh, adult domain catering to transexuals. Now, I'm cool with everyone living their lives however they want. That's what freedom is all about.
But why the sudden interest in Propnomicon among the intersexed?
The gaffs. In particular, the combination of the words "latex" and "gaff". Much to my surprise a latex gaff isn't always a Fiji Mermaid or shrunken head. It's also a device used by cross dressers to make their manparts disappear. From a quick Googling it appears there's quite a bit a craftsmanship involved in making the more upscale ones.
I probably won't be posting a link to a tutorial on making one of those anytime soon.
I love it when you update us all on what's happening behind the scenes, especially when things like this happen.
ReplyDeleteI know I stumbled on to your blog a few years back looking up something unrelated.
ReplyDeleteI suppose Luker's are good no matter where they come from.

ReplyDeleteThe excitement never stops here at Propnomicon command. Heh.
@ Joseph White
According to the statcounter at least a few of those folks stayed for a while and browsed the archives. I credit the universal appeal of Cthulhu.
And by "appeal" I mean "mind shattering threat".
A fiji mermaid-themed device to make manparts disappear? A million dollar idea!

. . . Oh dearie me. *winces* That's . . . mighty unexpected, there. I can't help but laugh. Inappropriate search terms are always good for comedy gold. Or some really, really disturbing imagery. See, now I'm picturing a codpiece with tentacles, or a little anglerfish lure, so, you know, thanks for that. Eeeeeecccchhhh.
ReplyDeleteJust FYI, though a ton of porn uses "transsexual" most transgender folks these days really prefer "transgender." (As in "a transgender person," not "a transgender.")
"Intersexed" is a whooooole 'nother kettle of fish involving a spectrum of physical/genetic conditions, and as a physical condition, isn't actually inextricably linked with being transgender/genderqueer/what-have-you.
Sorry to be serious and pedantic, but we do get around. (I'm some flavor of genderqueer, in as much as any label works. *raises hand* *throws glitter*) Through disrupting now, back to our regularly scheduled derangement. Thank you.
