Gizmodo is still a business mind you, and like any good business they want traffic, and lots of it! The articles are obviously written for, and read by and far by an audience obviously predominantly comprised of 15 year old boys. If a majority of readers want stories about masturbation, then articles about masturbation it is! If a story about masturbation brings in a ton of viewer’s, which ultimately makes the sponsor’s happy, then Masturbation it is. If you’re really serious and find this sort of stuff offensive, then don’t be tempted by these “types” of articles and ignore them altogether.”]
