People love porn, and people love helping others, so why not bring the two together? That was the idea between Humpy Leftnut's (surprisingly, not his real name) charity benefit Hump the Bundle, a collection of porn photos and videos that users can pay for, with the proceeds going to charity. It's based on the super-successful project Humble Bundles, where users donate money to charities in exchange for exclusive video game downloads.

In this case, porn sites have donated bundles of their videos and albums to Hump the Bundle. If you donate over $18, you get access to all of them (and for the record, I donated for research purposes and they're all high-def, streaming, and, uh ... good). They've raised $14,000 so far and are currently donating the money to charities Able Gamers, The Foundation for Sex Positive Culture, and Angel's Giving Tree.

But while they're in talks with several more charities, they're getting a lot of rejection letters because of their association with porn. "We got a lot of apologetic, polite responses," Leftnut told Cosmopolitan.com. "But all of them included the word 'Unfortunately.'" It's getting so frustrating, in fact, that Leftnut is looking to change the game. He wrote on Reddit this week:

I just think that charities are put in the unenviable position of having to choose whose good enough to accept money from. It's a perception that they don't want the association, and they're worried their larger donors would disapprove. I'm considering starting an association of sorts that approaches charities and asks them to adopt a policy of accepting all legal funds, without discrimination. That way if they do accept money from a less than savoury source and someone disapproves, they can point to their policy of non-discrimination. It changes the conversation from one individual donation to the larger issue of why should a charity have to turn money away. Isn't the money better used by them?

But despite the problems, Hump the Bundle is getting a lot of positive feedback. They're sex-positive and have tried to feature porn that will appeal to a wide audience. Leftnut dismisses the idea that porn is somehow degrading. "I think the idea that porn demeans women is sexist in itself, as if women shouldn't be able to decide for themselves what they can and can't do," he says.

Hopefully, more charities will get comfortable with the idea of raising money via nakedness. But until then, you can feel really good about yourself while you masturbate by donating here, or if you want to check out their super NSFW site, you can go here.
