Erotic City

by Bryan A. Bybee

A RESTRICTED RETURN

Erotic City is back to its full page-and-a-half splendor after two months of appearing as a mere shell—a measly 250 words. It’s kinda like that nostalgic PDX carpet (@pdxcarpet) that you ignored and even hated while having the privilege to walk on but threw a fit when it was removed. Well, your tantrums worked, just like they did for the return of the carpet earlier this year, and we’re grateful you missed E.C. (Admittedly, we only heard from two people, and one lived in Florida, but it’s the thought that counts!)

Being back to full length doesn’t come without some new guidelines, however. I’m not supposed to delve into political tangents, insult paying advertisers, or write negatively about their establishments (apparently, non-advertisers and those that don’t pay their bills are still fair game), and "absolutely no references to pornographic material that feature persons of short stature"—and I quote. When I first received these new precepts, my immediate reaction was, "well, WTF in the actual FUCK am I going to write about then?!" Talk about castration! Oh, and I’m supposed to "refrain from incessant use of profanity." Whatever, dude.

But we’ll still make it fun. I’m not foreign to pushing the limits, and if I lose this gig, oh well... I’m a certified badass with a crochet hook, and I’ve been working on a side hustle anyway. Available soon and customizable with any expression you desire!

P-TOWN HAPS

Let’s switch gears for a moment and talk about what’s happening around the industry in August. All joking and sarcasm aside, this event I’m about to mention is for a great cause, and everyone should stop by and check it out. Devils Point and Lucky Devil are holding their 16th Annual Bikini Car & Dog Wash on Sunday, August 7, from 2 p.m to 6 p.m., outside of Lucky Devil at 633 SE Powell Blvd. It’s a benefit for Family Dogs New Life Shelter (@fdnewlife)—a no-kill shelter, so come support a great cause while seeing the sexiest dog washers you’ve ever laid eyes upon!

Next up is The Lounge’s 2nd Annual Pool Bash on Wednesday, August 17, at 9 p.m. Based on last year, you won’t want to miss this crazy night! Then, later this month, Star’s Cabaret in Salem has something special for all you ladies out there. On Sunday, August 28, at 7 p.m., Stars presents Hunks All Male Revue—you can get your tickets ahead of time at HunksTheShow.com!

COMPETITIONS & PAGEANTS

It’s been a busy year for events already—now that we can actually have them again! Among the latest to take place were presented by DJ Dick Hennessy: The 4th Annual Motorbooty Twerking Competition in June and the 11th Annual Vagina Beauty Pageant last month. Congratulations to Motorbooty 2022 Champion Nia (@niagiselle_) from Golden Dragon!

Also, awesome performances by Catalina from Club SinRock, placing 2nd, and Miss Jones from The Lounge, placing 3rd! You can check out additional coverage of Motorbooty 2022 right here, and we’ll have full coverage of the Vagina Beauty Pageant in September’s issue, so make sure to grab a copy!

But wait! There’s more—two more, to be precise! That’s right, citizenry of our beloved industry, we have two more events for you this year! In September, DJ Dick Hennessy will bring you his 8th Annual Best Breasts of the West Contest and then we close out ’22 with a bang, bringing you Miss Exotic Oregon 2023 in October and November!

That’s all for this month, folks. Don’t let that summertime heat frazzle the razzle in your dazzle!

Support your local businesses, including every industry business within these pages.
