Ms Naughty looks at porn for women, feminism and sex in general
Comstock Films has redesigned their site and they’ve added a coming soon page. Tony and Peggy have just completed and shipped Ashley and Kisha and now it turns out that they’ve got another four “pornumentaries” in the pipeline. There are two more films featuring lesbian couples: Brett and Melanie is a love story featuring a boi, a femme and a strapon, while Tina and Jenn’s lovemaking involves handcuffs and mega-orgasms.

Numerous things to blog about today, but I don’t feel like doing multiple posts so… * Violet Blue’s article about porn for women is out in Oprah’s O magazine. Details here. I’ve written about this previously in my post Has Oprah embraced porn? * The mainstream media is rehashing the eye-tracking study from the Kinsey instute which says women perve more than men. I wrote about this in April in Read More …
Another classic from The Chaser. This one has the gorgeous Richard E. Grant saying the words “shaved minge.” I feel a need to use the phrase “shaved minge” in a conversation somewhere.
ABC music video show Rage recently held a competition where you could win the chance to program the show. Contestants had to make a list of your top 20 videos along with reasons for choosing each song. The winner was to exhibit “style and panache” in their list. I didn’t win. Neither did the other 3999 people who entered. Some 17 year old kid won it. Bastard. Anyway, since I Read More …
You learn something new everyday. I’ve discovered that in the UK the unofficial rule for deciding whether a photo of a naked man was obscene was called the “Mull of Kintyre Test.” In Britain it was against the law to publish photos of erect penises. Of course, “erect” can encompass a whole range of turgidity and so to counter this grey area a general consensus was reached: the dick could Read More …
Surfing Google news I found this article at the UK’s Metro Magazine about women enjoying porn. It’s got all the usual semi-amazed discussion about the idea of women actually enjoying smut, plus a short interview with Anna Span. Nothing new there, although it has brought to my attention a new academic book by Clarissa Smith called One ForThe Girls. It’s a look at women’s experience of porn via the UK Read More …
Here’s Chas from the Chaser testing whether the classic porn cliches (Handyman, Pizza guy and Pool boy) really do turn women on. Worth watching for the mustache alone.
Kiss Me I’m Kneeling. Why does that sound like a porn title? Anyway, here’s a nice porn pic for Friday. Full set is at For The Girls.
Damn, it’s getting hard to keep up. Today’s ranty article about the Porn for Women* book is at Jezebel. In this case the author has sent an email to all her friends asking about what porn they like. There’s a bunch of varied responses, most of which are quite cynical, but I had to laugh at this one: I always thought girl porn like Sweet Action was really icky. Like, Read More …
You know, I’ve got to hand it to the alleged Cambridge Women’s Pornography Co-operative, authors of the book Porn for Women. Just by using that title, they’ve got the attention of a plethora of newspaper columnists, bloggers and feminists. I keep finding articles about it, frenzied discussions, outraged rants and cosy recommendations. Nice free advertising. Nice way to get to the top of Google. Nice way to make sales. There’s Read More …
Rachel Kramer Bussel has an opinion piece in the Huffington Post looking at that alleged comedy book called Porn for Women and asks if “porn for women” is a legitimate concept. She also asks whether a man doing housework is stroke material. I would say yes, but only if he’s naked (in which case, the book in question doesn’t make the grade). In the past I’ve made two free sites Read More …
Blerk. I have a head cold and I feel miserable.
Here is a beautiful reclining hottie, lost in ecstasy, for your Friday viewing pleasure. You’ll find the full set of pics at For The Girls.
Amidst a flurry of mainstream media articles about porn recently, Press Telegram has a piece about the growing influence of women in the adult industry. The article interviews Jamye Waxman and Candida Royalle as well as Anne Semans from Babeland. Unfortunately the story is short on statistics about how many women are into porn. I guess the Nielsen Netratings statistics of 28% don’t come up easily on Google. My other Read More …
Wired’s Regina Lynn has an interview with Audacia Ray about Naked on the Internet here. I liked this quote: I did an appearance on the Geraldo at Large show in March. In the interview, they asked, “And how is this dangerous?” at least six different times. That’s a question rooted in crazy technophobia that’s all put off on the internet. My response is that meeting people is dangerous. But what’s Read More …
