h/t Breitbart – a rising green movement believes they have hit on a way to form a closer bond with nature, to help save the planet.
Ecosexuals Believe Having Sex with the Earth Could Save It
If you happen to find yourself in Sydney this week, you have the unique opportunity to have sex with the earth. You just need to stop by the “ecosexual bathhouse,” which is currently part of the Syndey LiveWorks Festival of experimental art. The bathhouse is an interactive installation created by artists Loren Kronemyer and Ian Sinclair of Pony Express, who described the work to me as a “no-holds-barred extravaganza meant to dissolve the barriers between species as we descend into oblivion” as the result of our global environmental crisis. But they also see their piece as a part of a much larger ecosexual movement, which they say is gathering momentum around the world.
And they may be right. Jennifer Reed, a PhD candidate in sociology at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, is writing a dissertation on ecosexuality, and says that the number of people who identify as ecosexuals has increased markedly in the past two years. And Google search data confirms that interest in the term has spiked dramatically over the past year. We may look back on 2016 as the year ecosexuality hit the mainstream.
Ecosexuality is a term with wide-ranging definitions, which vary depending on who you ask. Amanda Morgan, a faculty member at the UNLV School of Community Health Sciences who is involved in the ecosexual movement, says that ecosexuality could be measured in a sense not unlike the Kinsey Scale: On one end, it encompasses people who try to use sustainable sex products, or who enjoy skinny dipping and naked hiking. On the other are “people who roll around in the dirt having an orgasm covered in potting soil,” she said. “There are people who fuck trees, or masturbate under a waterfall.”

I suspect this weird new craze is more of a temperate forest thing. Where I live, on the southern edge of the Australian tropics, the first thing you do after a walk through the woods, assuming you’ve avoided an encounter with poisonous snakes, crocodiles, dangerous packs of wild dogs, stinging trees, angry kangaroos (seriously!), wild pigs, or in swampy areas like my cousin’s famous “shortcut”, black blood-sucking leeches, is to make sure you haven’t been infested by neurotoxic paralysis ticks.
Yeah, you know, if something or someone doesn’t get penetrated, what’s the point really?
Well, that might give us a few fewer greens than there were before the craze started.
Sounds like a great solution for an over populated planet. At least these eco-loonies will soon become an endangered species: Darwin to the rescue !
Gives new meaning to having a woody.
Tree fungii as STD ???
I wish I had said that. Thanks for the large laugh.
Now that’s funny!!
I once read of a case of sexual transmission of the oil from poison ivy.
I’ve seen more than one TV program on the dangers of infection from inhaling
potting soil dust. There’s a reason my garden shed has a stack of disposable
face-masks.

I would suggest a trip to Arctic for a bit of hugging and …., snow is a bit softer

thousands of natural snowballs formed on the beach.

Well how wonderfully beautiful.
Everybody peeing on the tree in unison, and not a bit of snow to become yellowed.
How special is that ?

” people who roll around in the dirt having an orgasm covered in potting soil,” she said. “There are people who fuck trees, or masturbate under a waterfall.” ”
If you had any doubts about the insanity of agw this should take care of it.
That has to be a quote from a book by the former IPCC chair. 🙂
You know, the usenet has photos of Russians doing all that stuff!
What are they going to do if their activities actually produce a GMO?!!!
Shades of Green: Tree-huggers, tree-snoggers, tree-fuckers.

But did the tree consent? What about its rights?
Come to think of it, isn’t rape of Gaia what this whole climate thing is supposedly about?
This one seems to be up for it. !!
And this one
Nope. They just “grab it by the ???”
Reminds me of teasing the carpenters at work by calling them “wood butchers”.
The only positive thing I can think of – Extinction is guaranteed.
No it isn’t !
I can think of an animal larger than a bread box, and plentiful where if your extinctificated every one that currently exists, and also ALL of the new ones already conceived and undergoing gestation, so that they are totally zeroed out, you would find in say 30 years there would be just as many as there are now.
They also are one of the most useful animals we know of.

I went to grade school in a farm town, and that’s a rite of passage from the third grade. It’s a mule of course.
“Fuck Nature” – sounds like an apt slogan for the Green Renewable Energy Movement.
I would say mankind is more in line to get f***** in a futile effort to change the climate by taxpayer funding of so-called “renewable energy”. (Come and get me HRC)
It looks rather unpleasant, even in the temperate zone.
Please tell me that’s photo shopped!
Cherry popped corn and I don’t care
sorry
Oh my “no”, its an actual photo of a “tree hugging” female enjoying the pleasures of using a recyclable “green-growing” French Tickler …… without destroying its “value” as a food source for th wildlife.
seems anal and not female but male to me (because of hands, hairy legs, and pants)
A bit corny , if you ask me. !!
A-maise-ing!
I just emptied out the freezer.
I never trust processed food since working in a canning factory. You cannot imagine what you are eating even when people are following the rules and not using your food as a butt plug.
Always buy fresh corn with the leaves still in place !!
I’ve heard of somebody getting cornholed , but …
Eco-freaks….

Make sure you don’t buy the corn that’s already shucked at the supermarket.
“Ecosexuality is a term with wide-ranging definitions, which vary depending on who you ask.”
It’s a form of mental illness if you ask me.
Obviously, the writer of that sentence did not know (or care) about objective case; it should read “depending on WHOM you ask.” My opinion is that anyone who tries to impregnate the earth or one of its inhabitants (aside from his wife, of course) deserves what he gets, ticks and all. This “movement” is symbolic, of course; such people would never stoop so low as to do something actually to help the ecosystem.
“Climate Science (TM) is a term with wide-ranging definitions, which vary depending on who [sic] you ask.”
“covered in potting soil,””
A really good potting soil mix will be chock full of all sorts of BACTERIA, worms and worm castings, rotting vegetation etc etc..
Enjoy that, you bozos, and be careful they don’t crawl up every orifice, and infest your brains…
…… oops.. TOO LATE !!
neurotoxic parasitic ticks…….
Beware…… Green voters are everywhere
“who enjoy skinny dipping ”
Hey, there’s nothing wrong with skinny dipping with the right young lady !!
At the present time my Body Mass Index precludes ‘skinny dipping’. But I do look fondly back on the days of my youth.
What’s wrong with a little ‘chunky dunking’?
Don’t forget. Fat floats!

Eric, your desperate trolling is making a mockery of this site. I hope you and Anthony are satisfied with the
heights you’ve climbed to this time.
It is the movement, which yearns for unseen heights. That much about desperate trolling.

Lindsay Hagemen! It’s over! I saw you on a bristle cone pine Saturday night, you..you..two timing strumpet.
Sugar daddy, eh?
duh, well isn’t that the whole point of using the word SEX to try to make money out of your event ?
Then on a page featuring a photo of a couple of “loveable” look sheep:
Yeah, right !!
But if these looney tunes already have children, I fear it is already too late.
She’s kinda cute. Too bad she has a severe mental illness.
Maybe she has a mental illness, or she’s found a good way to make money off of people who do.
Methinks you need to catch your breath. In any case, I’m not sure if you really understand the meaning of a ‘troll’. This is more mocking them and having a bit of fun at their expense. To troll them he’d have to post something on an ecosex site because I think it’s highly doubtful that any of them will be reading Anthony’s.
You have to admit, it is a rather … bizarre behavior (and a rather bizarre concept that plants understand and ‘enjoy’ sex as we know it).
In fact, I’m not sure this is not a form of sexual abuse given that plants are not able to communicate consent.
Probably right Bill, it’s more like plain old garden variety click-bait. But look what end up being posted on a blog that purports to take itself seriously. SMFH.
How dare we be human beings with working senses of humor! What nerve!
Since sex for plants is largely a matter of attracting pollinators, so long as you spread some pollen around it would probably be OK.
How can this be trolling? You clearly do not even know what the term means.
It is important for those of us who still believe in science and logic to be fully aware of what we are up against and once again we realise that ” OMG, it’s worse than we thought”.
Disgusting, isn’t it tony mcleod? Here you are, in league with and supportive of the movement of which the buffoons in this article are your fellow travelers and then, someone flips on the light switch.
Exposed, yet again. Those cockroach legs all humping and pumping as fast as they can, looking for that shelter- too late!
We see you and know you for what you are.
Get a life Tony, you boring little man.
poor tony… stuck with a “progressive” sense of humour.
Most people don’t think it’s funny when your side is getting ridiculed.
The difference with leftists is that they lack the self awareness needed to not advertise how close the other sides humor has hit.
Notice how the trolls get their panties in a wad just because someone posts an article that ridicules members of their team.
Just reporting on the opposition, there, Tony.

Just another side-band of the LGBTJKGIOGFREKG movement !
I don’t recognise those letters. The ones I do recognise are
Bisexual
Lesbian
Inter-sexual
Gay
Homosexual
Trans-sexual
Or: BLIGHT.
” Just another side-band of the LGBTJKGIOGFREKG movement ! ”
As the Lord looks down on his creation, he must be considering whether this would not be a good time for a Sodom and Gomorrah reboot.
Did I mention that one of my neighbors is building a boat?
Nuclear war is only a motion, a push of a button, a turn of the key, away. It has been said the first time was by water, the second by fire. An ark, doesn’t have to be a boat. The plans don’t reside with one person. Depending on circumstances, if it was just one person the undertaking might not happen. And then there are those that, knowing that, will work very hard to make sure the ark isn’t built. Much in the same way as Dugan Gates, I think, the first person recognized with HIV, decided to spread it among as many people as possible in the belief that the cure would be found if it affected enough people. If the ark isn’t built, destruction won’t happen. I was so hoping to get off this rock in my lifetime. There maybe some beautiful things here, out weighing it are the truly ugly horrible things.
Take this site for example. Who has the time and expertise to counter climate change ? Who has the resources and the official sanction of government ? Try to explain to someone, even intelligent people have a hard time grasping concepts and ideas as to how climate change and the agenda, is wrong.
I think an ark will be built. I don’t know how it’s going to happen given the political state of the world. It’d probably be a gift. Then maybe we shouldn’t leave. Is this the best that the development of life can offer ? Who, in their right mind, would want to repeat this endlessly ?
Eco sex ? Actually dirty and filthy. Why bother taking a shower, just go down to the local sewage plant and frolic in sewage… it a part of the earth… it’s so natural.. ( sarc on the last part here )
Don’t know what the initials “LGBTJKGIOGFREKG” represent, but this appears to be a case of the LGBTQIE – perhaps the LGBTQIESD – where the last two letters SD represent the Seriously Deranged.
Knowing what the first few letters stand for, I don’t think I want to know about rest of the list. It’s probably better not to ask.
They just keep adding more letters each day.. so difficult to keep up, isn’t it. ! 🙂
Doesn’t facebook list about 37 genders?
I make it up as I go along. However, you should be able to decipher LGBTOMGWTFROFLMAO. Expand to taste.

Dang! Forgot OMG and WUWT.
I do recall a seasonally appropriate joke about an amorous guy and a pumpkin…
Name your favourite vegetable.
Recall Animal House where Otter says to Dean Wormer’s wife in the grocery store, “Mine’s bigger.”
As several people have pointed out, such activities are only safely possible where and when humanity has subdued dangerous flora and fauna in the area. The Stupid!….it…..hurts!
Gives a whole new meaning to the phrase “morning wood”
Yes, after witnessing the sorry state of humanity during the visit of a bunch of saggy, naked tree huggers, I’m sure the wood in this photo will be in deep morning for the human race.
LOL! I hope you meant it to be funny. Reading your post I got a vision of trees crying at about 11:45 AM. You know mourning in the morning before the beasts arrive.
If those trees could speak, they would be saying, “Just cut me down, already.”
cacti need love too
A patch of nettles would be great!
Thrown a ten-spot towards AGU expenses into the pot. Don’t spend it all at once. K

The guy on the right of the tree in the middle of the picture……is that Michael Mann?
Um, hey guys, I hate to break it to you, but this is not Pandora and you are not Na’vi….
Scuzz Twittly has a rude but funny song about this, called,”I got a chainsaw”.
And what with the sea being full of crocodiles, deadly jellyfish, huge sharks, going in for a dip is hardly an option….
“Griff November 5, 2016 at 2:08 am
And what with the sea being full of crocodiles…”
You really are an idiot!
Have you never heard o saltwater crocs?
Salt water “crocs” don’t venture out to sea, my main point, they stay close to shore.
Estuarine crocodiles, emptymind !!
You might want to check things first…
Because of its tendency to travel very long distances at sea, individual saltwater crocodiles have been known to occasionally appear in areas far away from their general range. Vagrant individuals have historically been reported on New Caledonia, Fiji, … and even in the relatively frigid Sea of Japan (thousands of miles from their native territory.)

And where, precisely, do,people go for skinny dipping? Not usually very far out to sea.
Because of its tendency to travel very long distances at sea, individual saltwater crocodiles have been known to occasionally appear in areas far away from their general range. Vagrant individuals have historically been reported on New Caledonia, Fiji, and in Asian waters possibly swam with the Kuroshio Current, reaching such as at Iwo Jima, Hachijō-jima, Amami Ōshima, Iriomote-jima (residences by several individuals along Urauchi Riverfrom Bakumatsu to Meiji until being hunted by locals were suggested), pelagic waters off Shima, Mie, Miura Peninsula, and even in the relatively frigid Sea of Japan (thousands of miles from their native territory.
Any other pearls of wisdom for us Patrick?
The jellyfish are actually not so bad, most of the time, because they are predictable. They seem to be blown about by the wind, so if you have a strong onshore wind the shore and waters are infested, but if you have a strong offshore wind the beaches and waters are safe to swim.
KY Jellyfish are not so bad.
Geoff
Thanks for the tip!
Watch out for stonefish at low tide, too.
2016 Australia is the California of the 1960’s?
No Patrick,
Australia today is what Californians can only dream about attaining.
Figuratively, you might have invented synthetic LSD but we get a fine state of mind without it.
You use rubber sex dolls, we have the real item.
You let whacky politics rule your life, we rule the life of the politician.
And so on into the night.

Do the guys on the “home” page picture, ever get wood?
I was at Callanish (Lewis, Outer Hebrides) a few days ago and a minibus disgorged (gave birth?) to a dozen or so earth types ranging in age from ~ 20 to 70. In no time, one 25 something had her arms around a small standing stone and sobbed her way to ecstasy, while an older portly 50+ had his vials of blue liquid out plus a golden orb the size of a golf ball skewered with a steel needle which made a loud ringing tone when hit against a tall stone. Meanwhile, like an A380 on slow finals, a woman walked up the main axis of the stones with arms outstretched as wings in some sort of reverie. It was a bloody circus.
I was tempted to prise the huggers and ringers off the stones so a few stone snaps were possible (12,000 miles to be there) but plod might have judged it as assault, so a few choice words had to suffice.
Is this the new scene with nutters assaulting historic sites, not to mention doing unmentionable acts on parsnips and cucumbers? I hate to think what some of the stones had decorating them soon after. Yikes!
Reminds me of this;

Love these types of movies. Thanks for the tip, will certainly check it out.
Looks like there is a remake version on Netflix with Nick Cage but gets poor reviews. I’ll look for the original elsewhere.
You should see what they do inside churches, there’s drinking of fake blood, make believe cannibalism, all sorts of really weird stuff.
McLeod, were you adopted?
It really is sad the way so many atheists have to go out of their way to display their bigotry and ignorance.
