Ms Naughty looks at porn for women, feminism and sex in general
Posts relating to porn for women
* Does sex sell movies? Not really – I was surprised to find that a Wiccan actress was behind this study. She feels that actresses shouldn’t have to be naked in the name of their art. It’s an interesting idea but her push to remove sex or nudity from film is incredibly sex-negative. It means refusing to portray an important aspect of human experience. The study also doesn’t seem to Read More …
Last year my friend Jamye Waxman disappeared to Jamaica (of her own accord) in order to film a new instructional adult movie. She then amused us on Twitter with her ongoing search to delineate all 101 sex positions featured in this film. I was amazed that she managed to even find 50 positions, let alone 101. There’s only so many places your arms and legs and cock and cunt can Read More …
New York Press reports on the launch of another indie erotic magazine aimed at straight women. Candy Rain (previously “Ligerbeat“) is the project of three New York women, Callie Watts, “Mama D” and “Yung Ho”. It seems that Callie is the main driving force as she has previously worked for Playgirl before it folded and also helps with Bust magazine. The mag came about because the three joked that they Read More …
I’m thinking that since I spend so much time stuffing around on Twitter and Facebook that I should start doing a weekly roundup of the interesting links I find every day. I don’t want to include any serious commentary as it will take up time and thus not get done. So this is just a “quick n fast” post: “Common old fashioned fuck: $2.50” “Squatting on prick: 62c” Check out Read More …
Who cares about the stupid present? Give her tongue, man!
Alison and the good people at Good For Her have sent out a press release concerning next year’s Feminist Porn Awards. They’re planning to create a jury of members of the public to help judge the films, which is an excellent initiative. You can find out how to become a jury member here. They’ve also initiated a scholarship for new and upcoming feminist porn filmmakers (hmm… sounds familiar), the Emerging Read More …
The year is drawing to a close and thus it’s time again to take a look back at all the newsy and interesting things that have occurred in porn for women in 2009. Overall it’s been a big year with plenty of media attention and what appears to be a growing recognition within the adult industry itself that yes, women do enjoy porn. In The News * The big deal Read More …
It’s been a while since I posted a sexy pic. I like this one because it makes me wonder what this hunky guy with the nice butt is preparing. This photo makes me hungry, as it were.
I’m kind of bemused at some of the recent news articles that discuss the idea of women enjoying porn. Since the Oprah show they’ve been popping up here and there and they all seem to breathlessly report the “1 in 3 porn surfers is female” like it’s a brand new phenomenon. It’s not. I’m now approaching a decade of making porn sites and I’ve been catering to an eager female Read More …
It took five weeks but here, finally, is my little doco about the 2009 Berlin Porn Film Festival. It’s a little over 4 minutes and you’ll hear some great comments about feminist porn by some of the fab female directors I met including Shine Louise Houston, Anna Brownfield, Candida Royalle, Anna Span, Petra Joy, Jennifer Lyon Bell and Renee Pornero. Plus a quick cameo from Joe Gallant and footage from Read More …
Someone has helpfully posted the segment on the Oprah show featuring Violet Blue so I’ve finally been able to watch what was said. Violet has posted her feelings about the show on her blog and they’re overwhelmingly positive. I like this bit: Look closely at this show and you’ll notice that Oprah has reframed the entire conversation: we women are not ‘tolerated’ or marginalized for exploring our inhibitions, voicing our Read More …
In the last week Adam and Eve and Candida Royalle have released Petra Joy’s Feeling It to the US market. The film has a new cover, one that’s quite radically different to the old one. As you can see it features a big pic of the female stars all laughing together with champagne. They’re not nude. There are three other pics along the bottom but none are explicit. It’s an Read More …
So it’s been almost a week since Oprah did her porn show. I haven’t had a chance to watch it so I can’t comment but it seems the response is not as positive as we’d like it to have been. This seems due to the fact that the show relied heavily on an interview with Jenna Jameson. Reading comments in the Oprah forums after the show had aired, I was Read More …
Petra has uploaded these videos shot on the 24th October at the Joy Awards. And here’s snippets from the winning films including mine: Part of me is mortified at how I look on that video. There’s a reason I’ve been anonymous all these years and it’s not just privacy or safety. I’m also kicking myself because I had a fabulous necklace and earrings ready to wear on the night and Read More …
Anna Brownfield’s amazing indie erotic film The Band has only just been released in the US and is available on Amazon.* The Band opened the Berlin Porn Film Festival and played to 3 sold-out cinemas on the first night. The response from the audience and other filmmakers was overwhelmingly positive. I certainly enjoyed it. This film successfully combines a fully developed narrative arc with plenty of hardcore sex. The explicit Read More …
