On Sunday, while attempting to get the sweet love of a woman he met through a Craigslist sex ad, a 37-year-old Concord man found himself dodging bullets instead. Rendezvousing at the 4700 block of Matheson Court, the victim says that he had "responded to a Craigslist ad posted by a woman named 'Angel' and arranged for her to come to his house." However, once inside the house, "Angel" devilishly stole his wallet and then......

Over on the Apple discussion boards, things are taking a turn for the soap operatic. See, user "Susan042764" poses a worrisome (albeit gullible) question on the "Using iPhone,Camera and Photos" forum: can pictures automatically attach to e-mails in your iPhone? ...

As a "part of an agreement with attorneys general in 40 states," Craigslist will start monitoring its always-amusing "erotic services" a wee bit closer. The deal will require sex workers who post here to "provide a working number" and pay with a valid credit car. Why? Well, this way, if needed, law enforcement can have Craigslist to subpoena this info. The site will also sue "14 software and Internet companies that help people who post......

In Oakland, Concord, San Jose, Campbell, Milpitas, Morgan Hill, San Mateo, Santa Rosa, San Rafael and San Francisco, more than 100 people were arrested as a part of a nationwide prostitution sting. The arrests occurred over a three-day period last week, using everything from classic street-corner busts to modern-day Craigslist searches. FBI and Bay Area fuzz will give us all the lurid details during a news conference scheduled for later today. (SFGate)......

Sure, it happened over a week ago. But the following story of lurid merriment on the 49 Mission-Van Ness will burn into your memory forever. A horrified Craigslist reader/writer posts: To the tranny that blew that guy on the 49 bus last night..... - m4w Date: 2008-10-12, 7:48AM PDT ....in case you were wondering, yes, we all saw. And were horrified! You might remember the incident, huh? About 9:45pm last night, heading north. Why......

Photo by anthonysanfrancisco/Flickr Look at what someone gone and did during last Sunday's Folsom Street Fair. Pretty sneaky, kids.......

Photog extraordinaire Darwin Bell (for The Sword) managed to make it to yesterday's sex-and-fetish gala, the annual Folsom Street Fair. Lucky You. But let's skip the innuendos, explanation, and body-odor hate, and just get to the good stuff: fellatio, fisty sex acts, Sarah Palin drag, mommy parts, butts, boobs, bits, beer, same-sex sex, porta-potties, leather, and family fun. (Need some more Folsom Street Fair imagery burned into your brain? Oh, and these images are all......

Those clinically-insane folks over at IndyBay.org posted an event that could be the most exciting sex-based event, ever. See, the Kinky Anarchist Group's first-ever meeting takes place in the East Bay tonight next week. And we demand you check it out. (Unless you're a Democrat, which to anarchists is like loving Hitler.) But if you have ever "been reluctant to talk about sex with other anarchists, activists, and radical folks in your social scene,......

digg_url = 'http://digg.com/odd_stuff/Photos_Dore_Alley_Fair_San_Francisco_s_Leather_Sex_Fair'; (By Joe Kukura) Yesterday's Up Your Alley Fair is what the Folsom Street Fair used to be before all the tourists pushing baby strollers started showing up. More than 8,000 leather daddies -- and as many as perhaps a dozen biological women -- braved the cold fog wearing little more than a gimp mask and a smile to benefit PAWS, the AIDS Emergency Fund, and others. We tried to limit the......

Our delightfully insane friends over at Anonymous held a semi-regular protest this weekend, aimed at the frighteningly insane Church of Scientology. But we have to admit: we're sometimes confused as to the message running throughout their rallies. Take, for example, this past weekend's protest, which was heavy on themes of rape, masks, thin girls wearing multiple prints, bubbles, dancing, sheep sodomy, bare chests, screwing, and anal sex. We don't know what you're saying, but we......

Thomas Beatie, the with-child transgender male who stole the nation's heart on Oprah with his good looks and big baby beer gut, gave birth to a baby girl on Sunday. We repeat, the pregnant dude gave birth! That is all.......

As former SFist editors Eve Batey and Jackson West have already asked, just what in heaven's name happened to former SFist contributor Violet Blue's posts on Boing Boing? It seems that they have deleted her ouvre from their archives. West suggest that she might have "rubbed someone at Boing Boing the wrong way," which seems likely. But that? Also seems strange for any site to do to content, especially if said content is ripe with......

We've received a few curt emails this afternoon, upset over our use of the image in "Strip Club Etiquette: De-tipping?" Sexy, no? But It seems if we post a female form that's neither a tweaked out, Nair-estranged Burning Man girl, nor a zaftig, of-a-certain age Codepink protester, many of you dear readers get all aflutter. (PS, though, we thank you for sending us personal email on off-topic discussions such as this.) That said, it's......

Oh my, today's Police Blotter in the Examiner is satisfying. First off, some family in the Inner Richmond Outer Sunset got into a huge, bloody fight over rice preparation, wherein the father was arrested for domestic violence. That alone is priceless. (Note to wife: rent The Burning Bed, the feel-good movie of the '80s. It will teach you how to effectively deal with these kinds of situation.) But what's most impressive is that some......

Oh, how delightful. And just in time for Gay Pride, too! Captured by our dear friends over at Curbed, someone has colorfully detailed the joy of gay male sex at a bus stop. Rad, indeed. But what letter grade should we give it? We're a bit biased on this one. Grade: TK......

FILM: Those crazy bitches at Femina Potens Gallery are at it again. This time they plan on teaching you prudes out there how to make your very own blue movie at Hot Queer Film & Porn. Shine Louise Houston of Pink and White Productions, Dana Dearmond director for Vivid Alt, Julie Simone director for Abigail Productions and Julie Simone Productions, Trouble Royale for Trannywood Productions, Madison Young director for Madison Bound Productions, and Morty......

Photo by Katy German Aside from Juanita More's party at Bambuddha Lounge, the Frameline Film Fest, KRON4 fag hag Jan Wahl's coverage of the parade, the meth cloud that will hover above Beck's Motor Lodge, and the bittersweet tang of buried shame rising to the surface, we can't say we're looking forward to this month's melee. We're just that cool. Or bitter. Or both. What about you, San Franciscans? Any plans for the big......

Park Chalet -- which, it seems, provides the hungry eater or thirsty drunk an "unmatched indoor/outdoor atmosphere" -- is hosting a singles event. For cougars. You know, women of-a-certain age? Ladies 35 or older who get damp over boyish jailbait? They're having some sort of mass gathering later this month. Sort of like a cast party for Dateline: to Catch a Predator, only socially acceptable. Check it: ...

(By Joe Kukura) We just got off the phone with Carol Queen, who is gripped in preparations for this Sunday’s seventh annual Masturbate-a-Thon – where good folks publicly drop trou and raise money by seeing who can masturbate the longest, climax most often, and ejaculate the furthest. Things are really coming together for Sunday’s proceedings, with your hosts Nina Hartley and SF Boylesque, and live performances by Madison Young, Tom Orr, Sadie Lune, and......

Gee, this is rich. At a sci-fi conference in Michigan recently, some gent kindly created a system that allowed women to easily express permission for men to fondle them -- what an altruist! And his remarkable, breathtaking, totally unforeseeable discovery: people feel uncomfortable when they are asked to publicly specify their preferred level of anonymous sexual contact. This is how the guy explained his project: I wish this was the kind of world where......

Our sister site, DCist, brought to our attention the nationwide USASexGuide's massage parlor online guide, which allows men to freely discuss their experiences at local massage parlors while giving helpful reviews. Much to our delight, there's a San Francisco thread, which is a must-read. (To check out DCist's breakdown of all the joyous happy endings, go here.)...

Mills High School English teacher David Lista, 35, of Belmont has admitted to filming underage girls using the bathroom at the high school where he taught. it seems he was arrested yesterday afternoon after a Mills technology coordinator came across Lista's cinematic restroom work while checking the school computer server. Police then searched Lista's home, which turned up a "small amount" of methamphetamine as well. Ouch. But this wasn't the first time Lista's alleged......

Noted Marin resident/incendiary actor, Sean Penn, and noted tsunami survivor/Russian Czech model, Petra Nemcova, noticeably attended last night's Academy Awards show together. It is presumed that the two of them have had sexual intercourse with each other. There. Happy now?......

Because Valentine's Day is about necking, red roses, and Whitman's Samplers -- and not about making that special someone your creampie cutie for the night, you perverts -- the San Francisco Zoo's annual adult-only "Zoo Sex Tour" has changed its name to “Woo at the Zoo.” Why? No idea. But the zoo tells us: Contrary to common belief, the animals will not “mate on cue” during the Zoo’s adults-only affair (21 years and older),......

Here at SFist, we hate to be killjoys, but sometimes all we can do is just pass along the news. Apparently, your sex toys may not be safe to use (and we don't mean it in a Catholic "masturbation is bad for you" kind of way). According to Green Daily, the plastics used in your favorite sex toys have a compound called phthalates in it--which is what gives plastic its softness. However, there are......

-- Belle de jour (1967): Watch Catherine Deneuve turn into a whore while you, in turn, help to support some. A discussion will follow Luis Buñuel's housewife-cum-prostitute classic, and participants will receive gifts of sex toys. (Tee hee.) All of tonight's proceeds will go to support St. James Infirmary, a health and occupational injury clinic for sex workers. Screens tonight at 6:30 p.m. at Artists' Television Access; donation of $5-20. -- Merry Crassmas: This......

Seeing as how San Francisco spends $11.4 million enforcing prostitution, Supe Jake McGoldrick, according to the Examiner, "asked the city attorney to draft legislation directing San Francisco police to make prostitution one of its lowest enforcement priorities." Making the oldest profession in the world a lower priority would possibly "help curb trafficking and exploitation in the sex industry." Just dandy, right? Well, not for Newsom. The Mayor shot down the legislation. saying that "legalization......

After a recent discussion about sex with those in the coveted 18-to-25-year-old age bracket, a friend then asked SFist: How old to you have to be to be a cougar? Huh. Honestly, we didn't have a clue. Do you? We'd love to hear what age one has to hit in order to be considered cougar-worthy. Specifically, we want to hear what age all of you male readers consider cougar time, and at what age......
