Can I warm you up?

Sometimes the treasure of a nation really does lie in the talents of its people. Witness the latest rise in popularity in Croatian housewife Radmila Kus' line of hand-knit penis warmers. While unfortunately not available online for purchase at press time -- no Etsy for Kus -- word of her woolen willies, spreading like proverbial wildfire at last check, has once again propagated the concept of warm wangs throughout the Western world.

The International Business Times reports that Kus, 55, has resurrected the tradition of weaving penis warmers -- known as scalda pene in neighboring Italy -- from the past. They were originally worn by men working in the forests of the mountainous Dinaric Alps region of Croatia to ward off the insidious frostbite of bitterly cold winters. Most popular size for the custom-made warmers? 20 cm, or 7.9 inches; it is unclear if this measurement is taken pre-shrinkage. 2 hours' worth of Kus' work produces a $9 warmer; on Etsy, the penis-pampering competition charges at least quadruple Kus' reasonable rates.

At last report, Kus announced she planned to give a penis warmer personally to President Obama - although, admittedly, that's not what people mean when they talk about "the measure of a President."

Ellen Schinderman has taken the classic craft of needlepoint and given it a pornographic twist. And currently her blowjob snapshots and framed three-ways featuring hands on dicks and dicks in pussies line the front walls of The Hive Gallery in downtown Los Angeles.

Go Go Yogi Penis!

Far away in the ancient Asian Kingdom of Bhutan, large, hairy caricatures of erect male members are gracing street corners, sprucing up alleyways and ejaculating good fortune unto all those who behold and bear witness.

No, this isn't Banksy working on a new avant-garde graffiti project overseas; it's a virile tradition that's been throbbing on for over 500 years -- and it serves to ward off evil spirits.

You can't tell, but he's hung like a horse.

It's official. Art truly can come from anywhere -- even sources you never thought existed.

Maria Fernanda Cardoso, an Australian artist based in Sydney, has somehow managed to create an art exhibition out of insect genitalia. The fact that insects even have penises and vaginas is thought provoking enough, but Cardoso took the liberty of dedicating thousands of hours of time to studying the anatomy of different creepy crawlies and recreating them for the sake of art.

She'd rather be comparing wallpaper samples.

Ladies, it turns out all those hours you spend watching HGTV aren't just a function of your affection for wall sconces and tasteful lighting schemes. A study by Dulex and the Mindlab International Laboratory at Sussex University indicates that for women, a re-decorated room can be just as pleasurable as sex.

As I walked into JANCAR Gallery this month, I was greeted at the door by a gaping pussy. Or, rather, one seamlessly attached to a stuffed animal by the artist Micol Hebron -- who, just a few months ago, wrapped up her solo show in the same space.

However, at that time, she had the whole gallery row of Chung King Road talking about her vaginal fountain composed of crystals, instead of her hilarious puppy on the verge of a queef.

I'm Taking What They Giving 'Cause I'm Hooking for a Livin'

The powerful and industrious working women of the night got their moment in the sun in a dual-action, two-part 'hooker salute' starting with the Miss Hooker Pageant last Friday at the Dragonfly in Hollywood and culminating with the HOOKERS group art exhibition that opened to the public Saturday night in Culver City.

All of this prostitution-al madness was choreographed by L.A. native and hooker enthusiast, Natalia Fabia.

"It must of been about 10 years ago, I just started calling my friends hookers; just like someone would call someone 'dude', like, 'Hey hooker!' Then I looked up a definition one year, and it said: A hooker is someone who sells their talents and abilities for money. [...] and I feel like everyone is like that."

What's that there?

Apple rejects sex-related apps all the time. Anything to do with porn is stomped on before "concerned parents" have a chance to object. Apps offering photos of scantily glad girls are even turned down -- there's been long-standing drama surrounding the removal of the SuicideGirls' app, which prompted the banning of a myriad "boobie apps" and the resulting outrage of consenting boobie-loving 18+ iPhone users worldwide.

But most recently a nudity-free, "erotic" app designed by a visual artist outside of London has been nixed by the Apple gatekeepers, and the argument is an interesting one.

Remember when Rush Limbaugh took the initiative to call Georgetown University Law School student Sandra Fluke -- and all other women who use birth control -- sluts and prostitutes?

Here's refresher in case you've been hanging out under a boulder this last week or so.
