Blogged Out

I didn’t post anything yesterday and there’s not much to talk about today either. Slow porn for women week, I guess, but my other problem at present is a growing concern that my blogs are taking up too much time. I’ve got four full-time blogs at the moment (two are for For The Girls) and I’m finding that writing for all of them can really suck up the time. I’ve Read More …

AVN Roundtable On Marketing To Women

I missed this when it happened – perhaps because AVN isn’t such a great site for discovering useful stuff like this. Still, better late than never. The AVN expo in January held a special seminar called “What Women Want”, aiming to discuss the needs of female consumers when it comes to porn and sex toys. Given the title of the forum and the fact that it was AVN I was Read More …

Sam’s Weekend As A Woman

I’ve linked to the blog All Men Are Liars, mainly because Sam De Brito is an excellent writer and I suspect he’s actually a closet feminist. I’ve been meaning to put this video up for a while. It documents Sam’s weekend spent as a woman, complete with wig, dresses, high heels and Brazilian wax. I recommend watching it just for the waxing part. “I felt like a plucked, raw chicken Read More …

Mammoth Book Of Women’s Fantasies

Here’s another book chock full of lusty reading if you’re in the mood to stimulate your imagination. I like this one because it’s really all about straight-out fantasy, and it’s always hot to read what gets other women off. Official blurb: The Mammoth Book of Women’s Fantasies is the newest addition to the lustily successful Mammoth Erotica series featuring the year’s—and the world’s—best erotic fiction. Featured in this steamy collection Read More …

A Feminist Porn Community?

The Dominion has an article about porn for women and the feminist porn awards. Admittedly, they’re six months late with the awards, but the piece does discuss women’s erotica in an interesting way. As for the opposite of feminist pornography, “any film made with female coercion” would qualify, says [Chanelle] Gallant. She stresses that feminist porn is not a genre. You can’t identify it by pointing to certain aspects of Read More …

Scary Comments About Sex By Fundamentalists

In theory I shouldn’t talk about religion on this blog, but sometimes I feel the urge to post something I’ve found. And given that US Republican candidate Mike Huckabee recently said he wanted to change the US constitution to resemble the bible, I’m feeling inclined to say something. Reading this list of scary, ignorant and occasionally amusing comments by fundamentalist Christians makes me concerned for the future. Individuals should be Read More …

Sting’s Winged Undies

I’m going to see Sting and The Police tonight and I’m very much looking forward to it. I’ve been a fan since I was 14 and Sting’s last concert here was in 2000 so I’m very keen to “get in touch” again. The tickets were the most expensive I’ve ever bought and the concert hasn’t sold out, possibly due to the price. The insane promoters have added Fergie to the Read More …

It’s Not Just A Brothel For Women, It’s An ECO Brothel

Hollywood madam Heidi Fleiss announced quite a while ago her plan to open a brothel for women in Nevada and it hasn’t progressed any further thanks to planning issues. Naturally her original announcement about the upcoming “Stud Farm” caused much sniggering at the idea that women would even consider using male prostitutes. Now a green website reports that the brothel will also be eco friendly. The facility will reportedly boast Read More …

Best Women’s Erotica 2009 Submissions

Violet Blue has posted her call for submissions for Best Women’s Erotica 2009. The deadline is 1st May 2009 and the guidelines look pretty similar to last year. I really liked what Violet had to write about creating a top quality erotica collection that reflects women: Let’s give women readers what they really want (as sales have shown). Let’s show mainstream publishing (who are still afraid of publishing books like Read More …

Israeli Women Like Porn

Seems the Israeli girls are all rather liberated, if we’re to believe a survey of over 14,000 women published recently. Apparently 71% of Israeli women consider themselves to be liberal and daring in bed, with the same percentage happily having orgasms regularly. So it’s unsurprising that half of them say they enjoy watching erotic materials including films, websites and books with 37% specifically saying they liked pornography. They were also Read More …

Hey, Everyone… BUM!

We went to a friend’s house for dinner last night and were alternately amused and annoyed by their three kids. At one point the eldest, who is four, decided to come into the kitchen with the sole purpose of getting some attention. “Hey Luke,” she said with her impish grin. “Look at me!” And when he did she very clearly and loudly said “BUM!” So then she got into all Read More …
