Kis, do you know that the guy who is credited with the Bre-X mining fraud fled to the Cayman Islands, and is living very comfortable there? Do you know that I've never bought a book from Amzn? But now I might start.Yeah! right!! >> SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 19, 1999--Badboynews.com, one of the Internet's leading sex news and information web sites, was placed on Whap Magazine's restricted reading list. Describing it as "news from the sleaziest, most vice-infested recesses of the Internet," Whap Magazine has instructed its readers not to visit Badboynews.com. "A site like ours is bound to stir up controversy," explained Zachary Lester, director of business development for Badboynews.com. "Every day we scour the Internet, linking to the latest sex-related news and information. Topics include sex technique, erotica, fetishes, and sexual health. By covering such a broad range of sexual interests, we can't help but anger some people. "We respect Whap's philosophical position that women should take charge of their relationships using domination and domestic discipline. However, our user base includes dominants, submissives, as well as more vanilla readers. We can't sacrifice the needs of one group to agree with the views of another." "That said, we do feel the sting of this rebuke. Of course, we will continue linking to Whap as they publish sex-related content on their web site," Lester commented. About Badboynews.com Badboynews.com aggregates content for a sex-hungry world. Combining continuously updated sex news with a comprehensive index of sex-related articles and web sites, it is the Internet's first sex portal site. Whether looking for a funny story, a dirty picture, or some sex advice, Badboynews.com satisfies the reader's every sexual need. The site has recently featured articles from the Washington Post and Irish Times on rampant oral sex among middle school students, a Sunday Times of London story about the possibility that Robin Hood may have been gay, and a Reuters piece suggesting that Britney Spears has become a role model for teens seeking breast implants. On the e-commerce side, the site brings sex-interested readers together with providers of sex-related products and services. A frank, unbiased editorial stance makes Badboynews.com a trusted guide in navigating this vast online industry. For instance, as a member of the Amazon.com (Nasdaq:AMZN) Associates Program, Badboynews.com combines recommendations of books on sexuality with the opportunity to purchase those books discretely online.
