Procrastination Is Making A Cup Of Tea

I’ve just had a mad 5 days attending a film festival, learning a whole lot, making new friends and watching some seriously inspiring movies. It’s also got my creative juices working again. And this film about Procrastination was one of my favourites, because it sums up what I’ve been doing lately. NOT ENOUGH. Procrastination is messing about on Facebook. Procrastination is reading everyone’s posts on Twitter Procrastination is buggerising about Read More …

Feminist Porn Awards Nominees List

Just a quickie post which I’ll expand on Monday when I have time: Good For Her has released the list of nominees for the Feminist Porn Awards 2009. My little short, That’s What I Like, is listed. This is fab, but I should reveal the facts behind it. I’ve actually withdrawn the film from competition because For The Girls decided to sponsor the awards after I’d posted off the movie.

Porn For Women… It’s Not Really Sex With Unicorns

Please visit the excellent comic site Girls With Slingshots. The above pic is the punchline from this cartoon satirizing porn for women. Part of me thinks it’s hilarious that porn for women should involve unicorns. The other part of me sighs and thinks “Shit… do people really still believe that there’s no hardcore porn for women?” Why do some people find it so difficult to find? What search terms are Read More …

At Least 40 Legitimate Adult Sites Blacklisted

Following on from yesterday’s blacklist post… Wikileaks went down yesterday but it’s back up again today. I’ve just spent a bit of time going through the list again and making a note of all the adult websites that I’ve heard of before, ones that feature consenting adults or are run by adult companies that I know. The list contains 40 domains. The majority of them are hardcore sites, a lot Read More …

Adventures With A Blacklist

Two days ago I was complaining that the internet filter plan is sucking up my time. Damn, if that hasn’t been true today. At 11am the SMH revealed that the ACMA blacklist of “illegal” sites had been leaked on Wikileaks. Naturally I went straight there to check out what the government authority considers to be “prohibited content.” As is to be expected, the list is a fairly abhorrent catalogue of Read More …

Man Of My Dreams

There’s another porn movie for women on the scene. This one is softcore and created by a TV executive, backed by market research. Man Of My Dreams features 7 vignettes with a variety of fantasy men – the fireman, the handyman etc – and is 38 minutes long. The film and its director, Mimi Balfour, scored a decent write up in the National Post. Mimi told the paper: “There was Read More …

Besieged

You may have noticed that the blog has been scarce with posts recently. That’s because I took another week off, relaxing and trying to recover from a bad RSI attack. The house I stayed in only had dialup, which decreased my computer use substantially – and a lovely thing it was too. Now I’m home again and over the last couple of days have been sucked into the usual round Read More …

Killing Kittens

The Times Online has an extended article on an elite swingers/sex club currently operating in London – Killing Kittens. It caters specifically for women and aims to take the sleaze out of swinging. It’s about women — not alpha females who storm up to men — but feminine and sensual ones who can go and dance around in their underwear and drink with no pressure and no expectations, just free Read More …

Stills From “That’s What I Like”

This week’s update at For The Girls features my new short video “That’s What I Like.” If you’ve been following me on Twitter you’ll know I had a big weekend shooting this movie and an eventful couple of weeks editing it. Now it’s live at FTG and I’m so pleased with it. The official blurb for the movie is: “That’s What I Like” portrays one woman’s individual sexual preferences, in Read More …

Conservatives Consume More Porn

It’s not surprising, but a study of which US states consume more online porn has found that “red” states are up for it more often. New Scientist has found that those states with more conservative and religious populations tend to be the biggest consumers of porn. Utah tops the list. Eight of the top 10 pornography consuming states gave their electoral votes to John McCain in last year’s presidential election Read More …

Do Your Bit – Porn Surveys

Just spreading the word about two academic researchers that need porn-loving women to fill out their surveys. Firstly, a Women’s Studies MA student called Hayley is asking feminists for their views on porn. Here’s you chance to kick Andrea Dworkin in the butt again, girls. Tell her what you think here. Secondly, PhD candidate Susana Mayer needs to know about the sexuality of post-menopausal women – especially those who like Read More …
