The Adventures of LitBoy: Bill Brent's Blog

Sex Surrogacy Now Depicted in Feature Length Film

Premiering at Sundance, The Surrogate stars Helen Hunt in the role of Cheryl Cohen Greene, about her work with Mark O'Brien, who spent most of his life in an iron lung. Greene is still working as a surrogate at 67.

I met Cheryl in 1989 and we are still in touch. She is a delight. I have always admired her spirit and her work. It's great to see this recognized in a broader context, as I am sure this film will go a long way toward raising awareness of this healing yet still controversial profession.

Click on the links above to read an article at SFGate.com and to link to Cheryl's website. Also, here is an excellent short video that introduces you to Cheryl and the work of surrogate partners:

Fun fun fun on the inFerNet! It's been a while since I've posted an amusing sex link, so: HERE YOU GO, forwarded by my colleagues at San Francisco's Center for Sex and Culture.

(I lurves the bit starting @ 0:41, with the young woman who refuses to discuss the issue.)

Anyway, have a fun weekend, penised or not!

The most beautiful erotic fiction collection published this decade?

Greetings, all --

I am re-posting this offer as a favor to my longtime friend and colleague, Jamie Joy Gatto. SEX NOIR is an elegant book, in terms of its content as well as its high-end production values (hardcover, with a dust jacket in duo-tone metallic ink on black!). And so it makes a most memorable and gorgeous gift.

Also, this book conforms in the best possible way with this blog's meta-theme of tales of transformation. Gatto writes in an intense, emotionally rich style, and her characters and situations flirt constantly with the edge of imagination and possibility.

And right now, you can get an autographed copy direct from the author, and support a worthy cause!

HERE are the full details regarding this collection, including how to order. This is a time-sensitive offer, so please act now.

Wishing you a beautiful day,
