Ms Naughty looks at porn for women, feminism and sex in general
So, just to provide a contrast from some of my previous, rather deep posts, here’s some male eye candy. I think he’s rather hot, what with the bad boy looks, the goatee and the y fronts. The pic is from the For The Girls Blog, so I thought I’d re-post it here and remind you that if you want regular perving opportunities, head over there. And yes, of course I Read More …
Well, I think Naomi Wolf has lost it. I was less than impressed with her endlessly-repeated article about porn which relied heavily on assumptions about what men think. And I was also puzzled by her fascination with the idea that Jewish Orthodox modesty was “so hot.” Now she’s taken that concept and run with it, declaring that Muslim women are far freer in the expression of their sexuality while covered Read More …
I think I like the sound of Spain. Forget the prudish Catholic bit. The Spanish are a relatively live-and-let-live bunch and attitudes are surprisingly relaxed. In fact, the laws regarding public nudity are the most liberal in Europe and right to dress (or not) as you see fit is enshrined in the Spanish constitution. Theoretically, you can be naked on any beach, or indeed in any public place. In practice, Read More …
I’m busy busy busy today editing dirty movies so here’s a couple of quick links of interest. * Vice Tries To Bust Me On The Porn Set – Feminist adult filmmaker Tristan Taormino reveals her run-in with an LA Vice squad while filming her latest movie (something BDSM themed, can’t wait). This story provides a disappointing reminder that it doesn’t matter how ethical or feminist or progressive the porn may Read More …
In the wake of For The Girls’ fourth erotic fiction competition, I feel the need to make a post urging aspiring authors to follow a few simple rules when writing erotic fiction. I feel this because, even though there were plenty of absolutely gorgeous and cleverly written short stories entered, there were also plenty of bombs. Yes folks, there are people out there who fancy themselves as masters of the Read More …
The winners of the For The Girls annual short story competition have been announced. All the winners and judging comments are here. This year the theme was “transgression” and wow, it certainly inspired people to come up with wild, outrageous and very sexy stories. The top three stories: WINNER Julienne by Sommer Marsden Judge’s comments: Exhilerating and undeniably hot, Sommer’s intense story of a stale relationship revived at the point Read More …
Playgirl is dead and this has led numerous know-nothings in the media to come to the conclusion that women don’t like porn. First there was this from Momlogic. In a small survey at the momlogic office, staff members were shown–well, members–and asked if they thought they were attractive. The responses were less than positive: “I don’t like any parts of the penis.” “This is gross.” Thanks for nothing, Moms. Another Read More …
Erika Lust’s latest film The Barcelona Sex Project is a documentary-style erotic movie that aims to enlighten as well as arouse. The film features three men and three women talking about their hobbies, their work, their passions and their sex lives, after which they masturbate on camera. I thought it was a wonderfully engaging movie, one that was both interesting and sexy. My review of the film is appearing at Read More …
Another Roy and HG classic moment involving the “downstairs area” of male gymnasts. These are the famous commentaries of the men’s gymnastics floor exercises, responsible for coining a whole bunch of new sporting phrases such as “crazy date”, “party date”, “hello boys” and, of course, “flat bag”. I don’t doubt that the majority of Australians have either thought or said these phrases when watching the floor excerises at the Beijing Read More …
The Olympics is primarily populated by young people. When it comes to the sports of athletics, cycling, gymnastics and swimming, you’re over the hill when you turn 25. But a number of women have ignored conventional wisdom and are now Olympians in 2008. Post motherhood. German Oksana Chusovitina is 33 and has been a gymnast for 20 years. When I saw her competing amongst the pre-pubescent girls that dominate in Read More …
That’s it. I’ve got a new ambition and it involves a lot of 80s gym clothing. The Real Hot Bitches is a dance troupe formed in New Zealand. They’re a group of women (and some men) with a fantastic sense of humour who get together and perform very kitch dance routines to 80s songs. The costume of choice is bright lycra leotards, leg warmers and big hair. They’re reliving the Read More …
Wasted far too much time this afternoon watching the synchronised diving, mainly because of the gorgeous guys in the Canadian team – Alexandre Despatie and Arturo Miranda. Lovely eye candy, especially given they’re wearing only Speedos for their events. And Michael Phelps may be cleaning up the gold medals in Swimming, but who can deny that Eamon Sullivan is simply the most delectable guy at the pool. NBC has a Read More …
So the Beijing Olympics are in full swing and that means I’m getting terribly distracted by gorgeous male swimmers, gymnasts, divers, rowers and… well pretty much all of them. There’s a veritable plethora of gloriously toned and muscled male flesh on display and a lot of the time its packed into lycra, as you can see in the video above. Actually, I just had to include the clip from Roy Read More …
Today’s depressing censorship/thought crime news is that a woman has been sentenced to five years of probation for writing sex stories. Yes folks, for writing fiction. I’ve already posted about this case. It’s difficult to speak out in defense of the author because the stories depicted child abuse, violence and rape – that’s why the government went after Karen Fletcher and her site Red Rose Stories. But this case sets Read More …
I’m up to my neck in reading entries from the short story competition at the moment, not much time for the blog. So here’s a great pic for Friday: A man whose cock can double as a bookshelf. Via AAG.
