Inventive Sex

As our readers know, we like to point out new blogs from time to time that are relevant to intellectual property, IT or the other areas that we cover. Thanks to The Lawyer, we can point out a blog with a very focused lens on one aspect of patents: those relating to sex toys and similar stuff: X-Ratent Patents.

I'm thinking maybe there is a market for a trade mark version of this thing? Some trademarks that we could include might be (and these are just from the UK):

Or we could look at interesting statistics like the number of trademarks applied for that would have effect in the UK that start with the F-word (three, two refused one new) or the number of live UK trade marks or applications in the class for sex aids (91 marks).

Or maybe not.
