I’ll admit that I’m shocked to hear myself say this but it looks like CNN did their research. Or, rather, they talked to quite a few of the right people. They spoke with the aforementioned Dan Miller as well as Alexander Raymond Palumbo, social media strategist for Digital Playground. They also checked in with Chauntelle Tibbals, a scholar studying the porn industry. And, to represent the porn star side of things, they talked with James Deen, Dana DeArmond and Kayden Kross.

And what they write is true: Twitter has helped the porn industry. We all watch porn, after all. The problem is that porn has often been seen as a shady, hidden thing. So, despite the fact that everyone watches it, there was always a bit of a divide between porn makers and porn viewers. Twitter may just have changed all that by bridging the divide and making our favorite porn stars accessible.

Another thing that Twitter has managed to change were some of the stereotypes about porn stars. James Deen, for example, has built a lot of his reputation off of the demeanor he presents on Twitter: he’s the silly boy next door. Kayden Kross also defies porn star stereotypes by tweeting about horses and literature. Dana DeArmond, on the other hand, has made her mark on Twitter by being one of the most down-to-earth and responsive porn stars on the site. (For even more porn stars who tweet, check out our coverage of some of the porn stars with the biggest followings.)

In fact, the porn stars I’ve encountered on Twitter reinforce this: they’re regular people tweeting about their lives. If you’re on Twitter, why not check out some porn stars? After all, CNN seems to think it’s a good idea. Oh and, hey, why not follow us on Twitter while you’re there?

As seen in our sex wikipedia, Ass to mouth is when you have hot anal sex and then get your dick sucked immediately after. Like I said, I’m a germaphobe and would never let anyone give me a blow job after I’ve just stuck my cock in her butt but I have friends who are cool with it. They also make fun of me because I have a Blake Griffin action figure still in its original packaging that I put in a display case. It’s worth a lot, okay, Darrell?!? But alas, my boy Darrell is the one who came up with the idea of the ass to mouth educational post so I can’t be too hard on him.

This goes without saying but I’m going to say it anyway. If you have unprotected anal sex you’re at risk for sexually transmitted diseases like chlamydia, HIV and genital herpes. If you let your partner give you a blow job right after you’ve been ramming it in their ass, they could get violently ill. They could catch Hep A, intestinal parasites, gonorrhea and gut flora organisms like E. coli, Salmonella (which is also what we used to call Darrell because once he ate 9 Hardee’s thickburgers on a road trip to Cincinnati and broke his intestines), Shigella and Campylobacter (which sounds like it should’ve been the name of  Jesse Ventura’s character in  Predator). The point is, if you’re going to have XXX anal sex and then get some ass to mouth action, wash your dick. Is a blow job really worth giving someone Shigella?

I know it’s ruins the XXX mood if you’re like “Hey listen, I know I just gave you the best anal sex of your life but I need to take a minute to wash my dick before you suck it.” It will save your from getting your partner sick with E. coli. If however, you’re lucky enough to fuck porn star Kayden Kross who is an advocate for keeping porno safe or something of the like, she’ll probably insist on a dick washing session and you’re all set.
