For The Girls Is 10 Years Old

You know you’re getting old when you get that one candle on the cake. It’s like, ‘See if you can blow this out.’ – Jerry Seinfeld I remember when the candle shop burned down. Everyone stood around singing ‘Happy Birthday.’ – Steven Wright Way back in May 2003, when everything was in black and white, a friend and I got together over drinks and decided to make our very own Read More …

For The Girls Turns 8

June has rolled around again and that means it’s now 8 years since we launched For The Girls. Allow me to stand around in wide-eyed astonishment for a bit. Eight fucking years! That went quick. It’s also been a bit of a slog, especially over the last 18 months with the never-ending struggle to revamp our member’s area (still going). But wow. I never thought when we started out with Read More …

Birthdays And Blogaversaries

Can you believe it, it’s my 6th Blogaversary! Actually, I’m a day late, I forgot! Anyway, I wrote my first blog post in the old format blog on June 7th, 2004.

I have to admit, I really didn’t think our little site Read More …

For The Girls Turns 4

On June 1, 2003 my partner Jane and I launched For The Girls, an erotic site for straight women like ourselves.

A Little 3rd Birthday Musing

So, today is June 1. Three years ago For The Girls was launched. Time flies, doesn’t it? For The Girls was a fairly modest site when it started out, but we had big plans for it. My partner and I firmly believed in what we were doing. Women like us wanted porn – but those women wanted a different kind of porn, presented in a more inclusive way. Oh, and Read More …

A (Very) Brief History of Male Centerfolds

As reported previously in this post, this month US Cosmopolitan is celebrating 10 years of naked male centerfolds. They’ve been offering up naked men since 1996 and in the last 5 years have combined the beefcake with a charity push to raise awareness of prostate cancer. Partly inspired by Cosmo’s PR effort, I decided to write a feature article on the history of male centerfolds, to feature in the upcoming Read More …
