Erotic By Nature

If you haven’t been already (I’ve seen numerous blogs promote this) check out Erotic by Nature, a lovely photography site by David Steinberg. It features beautiful photos of real couples getting it on, including a taboo-busting set of pics depicting disabled couples.

All About Anna Trailer

This is the trailer for Innocent Picture’s explicit drama All About Anna. I must admit, the trailer doesn’t make it seem like much of a sexy movie. The film does, however, feature full sex as well as a proper story about Anna and her various relationships. I’ve yet to watch this film because it’s not available in Australia and I’m waiting for the VOD to become available. Hopefully that will Read More …

A Thing For Men In Suspenders

I like this kinky pic. The guy is quite the manly specimen but he’s also wearing stockings and suspenders. In the photo series his lover dominantes him with a cane, among other things. I like it when guys wear stockings like this. It places little demands upon your assumptions about male and female roles… and it just looks hot. I blame Tim Curry entirely. I still adore watching him strut Read More …

Lesbians Want Decent Porn

A survey by a site called Gaydar Girls has found that lesbians want to watch more porn, but they find that most of the stuff on offer sucks. Why am I not surprised? This press release says: According to a survey conducted by the leading lesbian networking portal gaydargirls.com, women like their films to be feminine and sexy, with a something of a plot or storyline and loads of on Read More …

Must See: Maria Beatty’s Films

I’ve just finished watching The Black Glove to review it for For The Girls, and I just have to blog about how fantastic the films of Maria Beatty are. This gorgeous filmmaker creates lesbian BDSM movies that are extraordinarily well crafted with a distinct artistic sensibility. The Black Glove has an amazing ethereal quality to it, like you’re watching someone’s dark fantasy come to life. I’m pleased to say that Read More …

Erica Lust To Release “X For Women”

The always-busy Erika Lust is due to release a new book this month called “X For Women” (more info here). The book is intended to be a guide for women who want to know more about porn and features various discussions about the porn industry, how to choose the right adult movie and lists of recommendations. Erika says: “We can and must be able to enjoy ourselves without feeling offended. Read More …

Naomi Wolf’s Feminism Disappears Behind The Veil

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 …

Nude Spain

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 …

Shine Buys Into The “Women Aren’t Visual” Myth

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 and the Barcelona Sex Project

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 …

Oprah Does Porn, Gamelink Gets Female-Friendly

On Monday, the theme of the Oprah Winfrey show was “237 Reasons To Have Sex”. One segment on it was a relatively lengthy discussion of the usefulness of porn in spicing up a sex life. They also discussed the fact that women like porn and that – apparently – “in the $12 billion adult entertainment industry, $1 out of every $4 is spent by a woman.” And Dr. Schwartz agrees Read More …

Playgirl Magazine Folds

Well, Playgirl Magazine is finished. Writer Jamye Waxman confirmed the rumours in this blog post. She says it’s a shame because Playgirl could never quite be the intelligent sex magazine for women it wanted to be. The staff at Playgirl does get it, but what they were allowed to do with that knowledge never completely translated… both because their hands were always tied and because, well, the people who approve Read More …

Erotic Spelling Bees and Other Hot Movies For Women

I’ve updated Porn Movies For Women again and added another batch of hot female-friendly titles. Sex Spells is the latest from the Playgirl factory. Interestingly, it isn’t about an erotic spelling bee, although dammit, that’s one hell of a cool idea. Lennox Films, the offshoot of Inpulse responsible for the outrageously boring Ranch House Lust has a new film out called Intense Desires which promises a sex therapist, fantasy role Read More …
