Hard News Did a sex scandal help S.C. gubernatorial candidate Nikki Haley?
Posted By Mustang Sally, Mayor of Bang Town on Wed, Jun 9, 2010 at 2:29 PM
The cornerstone of feminism is equal treatment. So, when allegations started leaking out claiming that GOP gubernatorial candidate Nikki Haley was a cheating harlot — in a state that already has a cheating governor — you'd think that her campaign would've been dead in the muddy South Carolina political waters.
But no. Last night, Haley faired very well in the S.C. primaries.
Hoping to become the state's first female nominee for governor from a major party, Haley captured 49 percent of the vote to U.S. Rep. Gresham Barrett's 22 percent. A majority of the vote was needed to avoid the June 22 runoff.
No, she didn't come out right and win, but for a woman embroiled in a sex scandal in the Palmetto State, this says a lot.
Last week, a state lobbyist who had resigned from Bauer's campaign claimed he had a tryst with Haley in 2008. It was the second such allegation, following one by a former aide to Gov. Mark Sanford who said he had physical relations with Haley in 2007. Haley vigorously denied both accusations.Fifty-four percent of voters do not believe she has had extramarital affairs while 13 percent do, with 33 percent undecided.
"Nikki Haley's in good shape," said PPP's Dean Debnam. "Her campaign has deflected the allegations against her well and so far she hasn't suffered any political damage in the wake of them."
If Haley were a male candidate, would she have faired as well? When men are accused of cheating or facing allegations similar to those made against Haley, their career is pretty much over. Remember Gary Hart?
But Haley has scored endorsements from GOP pin up girl Sarah Palin and the former wife of the Luv Guv, Jenny Sanford, according to Politics Daily.
Jenny Sanford, the ex-wife of the current governor -- who must be grateful that Haley's troubles moved his Argentine adventures off the radar – also endorsed Haley.
At campaign appearances, Haley was often accompanied by her husband, Michael, who was featured in a television ad with their two children. In the ad, Haley said, "I've seen the dark side of our state's politics and I know the bright side of our state's people." She spoke about her Methodist faith (her parents are Sikhs) and the importance of family.Appearing before supporters Tuesday night, The New York Times reported, Haley said to her husband: "This is what kept me strong," adding, "I think he'll make a cute first man, don't you?"
South Carolina voters seemed anxious to move past the allegations of infidelity. Either they ignored the claims, sick of the ridicule and eager to discuss more substantive issues, or warmed to Haley because of it. Polls showed that Haley's support increased after the allegations and crowds at recent rallies expressed sympathy and cheered her on.
Is South Carolina gearing up for another scandal-plagued governor or was this just ugly politics to keep a woman out of the Palmetto State's highest office?
It's not as if any of the men claiming to have banged Haley had proof — you know, like romance novel like e-mails or plane tickets. If I were a S.C. resident, I'd wonder if we'd be searching for another governor on the Appalachian Trail again.

Hard News Sex tapes people don't need to see (featuring John Edwads and The Real Housewives of New Jersey)
Posted By Mustang Sally, Mayor of Bang Town on Tue, Jun 8, 2010 at 10:46 AM
If you're a fan of The Real Housewives series on Bravo, then you know the New Jersey season is in full swing.
Here's something else: plastic "housewife" Danielle has a sex tape that's being released. I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.
Hustler Inc. tells TMZ it is all set to distribute a 75 minute tape, featuring Jersey's most hated Housewife — and mother of two — in a naked romp with a mystery man.
A rep from Hustler tells us the tape was shot last September — several months after 47-year old Staub first appeared on the Bravo reality show. The tape is set to be released on June 14.
The problem with sex tapes and reality stars is that those tapes are usually as real as the "reality" shows they star in. I'm sure when Danielle hopped into bed with a mystery man, she knew what she was doing. For whatever reason, "infamous" is the new "famous." So, June 14 the public will be subject to the Housewife sex tape ... and we still haven't seen a leaked image from the John Edward/Richelle Hunter tape?
Though both of these tape are pretty much disgusting — which one should be kept away from the public the most?
I'm going to go with the Danielle tape, because, after all, North Carolina's own John Edwards could've been president.

Interviews Sex Q&A: Pretty Feet Videos
Posted By Mustang Sally, Mayor of Bang Town on Fri, Jun 4, 2010 at 4:52 PM
Here's a fact, some men love feet.
The owner of Pretty Feet Videos in Charlotte knows just how to capture that beautiful foot on film (or digital pixels) and video to feed the fetish of men who just love to see a pretty pair of feet. Though the videos and pictures sold by Pretty Feet Videos aren't explicit or sexual in nature, the whole foot fetish thing brings to mind sex.
Creative Loafing spoke with the owner of Pretty Feet Videos about what he does and why it isn't what people assume it is.
Creative Loafing: What do people get in a Pretty Feet Video?
Pretty Feet Video: What we do is strictly foot fetish stuff. People who have an admiration for pretty feet in high heels, foot jewelry, bare feet, pretty painted toes. Our shots are different angles, soles of the feet in heels, shoe dangling. None of my material contains any sexual content. There is no nudity or no sexual content in what I'm selling. It is basically feet and heels and things of that nature. I do provide some leg shots.
Who buys these videos?
My clientele are just people who are into that kind of thing. The want pictures, which I usually put on a CD, a minimum of 100 pictures, and the videos are between 30 and 45 minutes. It's predominately men who inquire about [the feet videos and pictures]. I'm going to say about 99 percent of the time that I'm receiving inquiries from men. Women rarely ever ask about it.
What's does the perfect foot look like?
Well, basically, not everybody may have pretty feet. So, I don't do anything that I don't consider attractive. They have to be well maintained, pedicures and things of that nature. You can tell the difference between a person who obviously takes care of their feet and the person who really kind of doesn't. So, all of my videos include very well pedicured toes and feet that are well taken care of with lotion. That aren't scaly and dry. That's not the kind of feet you will see on any of my work.
Where do you find your foot models?
I have a person that I work with who does that. I don't advertise for any models or anything like that.
Is there a big foot fetish community in Charlotte?
I think there is. I almost want to call it an underground community. Most men like pretty feet, but I don't think it's something that they will outwardly admit to. I'm speaking from experience. Most men do like to see pretty feet and it's pretty evident when I started doing this because I was getting calls for what I was selling. It was pretty much confirmation for me that there is a market for it. When I started doing this, people started coming out of the woodwork inquiring about it.

Woman dies from masturbation 38
I thought killing yourself while experiencing an orgasm was just an old wives' tale.
