Ms Naughty looks at porn for women, feminism and sex in general
Posts relating to porn for women
Back in June I reported that ABC’s Nightline was going to show a report women’s interest in porn and sex toys. The piece was bumped several times and it’s only just been broadcast. The report included appearances by Candida Royalle and Nica Noelle. For The Girls was initially contacted by the show but we never heard back from them. In any case, there’s a longish article to accompany the report Read More …
My decision has been made. At the end of October I’m going to attend the 2009 Berlin Porn Film Festival and see the European premiere of my film. It’s a shame I’ll miss the Melbourne festival but in the end the Berlin fest is the one more suited to my own work. My mind was made up when I saw that the BPFF will be focusing extensively on the work Read More …
New magazine Filament wants to put hard cocks in their next issue. Unfortunately the printers are refusing to come to the party, saying that “printing these images may offend women’s groups.” They’re now looking for another printer but need more cash so they’ve launched an “erection drive” in the hope of selling more issues. We’re talking about fighting the system here girls! I can only applaud Suraya’s effort to get Read More …
Here’s a short promo video with snippets from my movie “That’s What I Like” – available exclusively from For The Girls.
I should have blogged about this on the weekend but I was busy with a festival. In any case, the mainstream media are on the trail of women and porn again, thanks to this article by Violet Blue on CNN. Today it featured on the front page with a resulting surge in interest. The piece gives a positive overview of the statistics and the reasons why more women are watching Read More …
Over the past few weeks I’ve been in contact with Suraya Singh who is the editor of the newly launched Filament magazine for women. She’s been on a PR blitz that’s seen her receive excellent coverage in mainstream media and across the web. When I first found out about the magazine I must admit to being a little skeptical about its chances, mainly because it’s a print magazine. Already it Read More …
I’ve long been a fan of the films of Petra Joy. Now she’s launched The Joy Award, a short film competition that aims to encourage new female filmmakers to create erotic movies. This award is for first time female film-makers who would like to create erotic films that dare to question porn clichés and show sex in innovative and creative ways… The theme of the short film competition is: “What Read More …
I post a lot of photos of naked men on the blog but this one is so very different. We’ve all seen it plenty of times but today I was just struck by the sheer beauty and vulnerability it. The photo is by Annie Lieboweitz and it was taken on December 8, 1980 – the day John Lennon was shot. There’s something incredibly poignant about the fact that this image Read More …
On Thursday 11th June “Nightline” on ABC in the US will feature a story on porn for women. Candida Royalle and Nica Noelle from Sweet Sinner are due to be interviewed. If we’re lucky – very lucky – For The Girls MIGHT get a mention. Not sure on this, especially since being in Australia makes it harder to contact us due to differing time zones. I’m not sure what angle Read More …
A couple of days ago I wrote about Filament, a new erotica magazine for women. Over the last few days the mag has received several mentions in mainstream media. Great PR for Filament but, unfortunately, the same old tired assumtions and discussions are being rehashed. The Daily Mail doesn’t hesitate to come blaring in with assumptions at full mast: Women just don’t respond to visual stimuli in the same way Read More …
I’ve just spent a couple of days adding over 30 new film listings to Porn Movies For Women. I’ve created several pages for individual filmmakers and studios including Madison Young, Sweet Sinner and Libido Films. I’m actually a little embarrassed that I hadn’t added Libido Films earlier. The movies made by Marianna Beck over the last decade truly are good quality porn for women starring real-looking people having real orgasms. Read More …
The Independent has a piece about a new women’s erotica magazine being launched in the UK. It’s called Filament and it’s tagline is “the thinking woman’s crumpet.” Suraya Singh is yet another woman who felt that porn wasn’t offering her what she needed so she’s made her own. She’s got fairly negative things to say about existing women’s erotica, so she’s put me offside somewhat, but all power to her Read More …
I’m updating Porn Movies For Women with a whole bunch of new movies and filmmakers. One new and exciting studio I’m adding is Sweet Sinner run by Nica Noelle. I’m waiting on review copies and really looking forward to seeing the films as they sound really promising. The Stepmother is the first film from Nica. I went surfing around several online stores to see where the film was available and Read More …
Here it is, the little film that kept me very preoccupied last week. “Paddling The Pink Canoe” is a fun look at euphemisms for female masturbation. There are 44 individual slang terms used in the video. If you want the full list, visit the Pink Canoe page at FTG. I originally only intended to make a short 30 second fun video as a promo for For The Girls but then Read More …
If you’re not Australian you’re probably unaware of the big news story from last week involving footballers and rape. It goes like this: Football team goes on holiday in 2002. A woman meets some of them while out drinking, including Matt Johns, who has since become a TV celebrity here. The woman agrees to have sex with him and one other guy. All goes well… until the rest of the Read More …
