Where does the internet's phallus reside? Addressing the long-standing myth/desire that 'There are No Girls on the Internet', alongside the domination of lesbian/sissy and incest porn featuring step-mothers and sisters of all kinds, this talk asks: who is being fucked by the internet and why? What kind of thanatotic dance are men and women engaged in through the ether? Can we make each other laugh in increasingly perverse ways, and who might the edgelady be to compete with the edgelord? Does she, or can she, even exist?
