I should have blogged about this ages ago, but I was… er… washing my hair. Anyway, first-time director Becky Goldberg has created a documentary called Hot and Bothered: Feminist Pornography. The film looks at the emerging genre of female-friendly, feminist porn and features interviews with Nina Hartley, Tristan Taormino, Veronica Hart, Jackie Strano and Shar Rednour from SIR Video (quality dyke porn) and Greta Christina from women’s adult store Blowfish.

The Guardian reports that the regional government of Catalan in Spain will provide funding for three adult films because they will help to spread the Catalan language. The grants of £10,000 to a local film-maker are for what he described as women-friendly erotic films called Laura is Not Alone, The Memory of Fish and The Sea Isn’t Blue. The actors embark on numerous sexual adventures, including those of a “religious, Read More …

Women’s online adult store Libida has released some of the comments made when they asked their female customers what they wanted to see in porn. A few examples: “Make the actors believable. I can’t relate to porno stars, can’t relate to silicone makeovers. But I can relate to a nice looking girl and guy, even if he’s a little bald and she’s a little overweight. It makes the story more Read More …

The February edition of AVN has a cover story entitled What Do Women Watch? I’ve only just managed to read it now because their link to the story was broken until yesterday. Typically, the article focuses solely on the movie/DVD side of the business, but it does work to cover a lot of bases. They interviewed Tristan Taormino and Susie Bright to find official answers to the “what do women Read More …

The first release from Candida Royalle’s new Femme Chocolat line of erotic films is Afrodite Superstar, which looks due for release sometime in April. The film stars newcomer Simone Valentine and was directed by Venus Hottentot. The producer is Natasha Cortes. I think Candida’s role was as executive producer on this film. The official blurb says: Afrodite Superstar is a seductive, romantic comedy about Afrodite, a naive debutant who makes Read More …

I’m really pleased to discover the Strictly Broadband, the UK-based video-on-demand company, is now offering Petra Joy’s Female Fantasies. This means you can download the movie onto your PC and you have 7 days to watch it. The cost is around US$15. This is much cheaper and easier than attempting to buy the DVD from European-based adult stores. Female Fantasies is the latest film from Strawberry Seductress, Petra Joy, a Read More …

Playgirl has another film out, just like clockwork. This one is called Body Worship. “There are some desires so monumental, you must give in. You must obey. Fall to your knees, raise your voice. Give yourself over. You have no choice.” The blurbs for these films are getting increasingly vague. I mean, what the hell is that about, really? The film’s stars look fairly familiar. Fans of Jean Val Jean Read More …

I think I have to feel officially embarrassed that I haven’t encountered Petra Joy before. Petra is a UK-based photographer and erotic film maker who has been comfortable behind a camera since age 11. In the eighties she worked for an adult program on German TV and has developed her vision for authentic women’s erotica over many years. In 2003 she launched Strawberry Seductress, an erotic photography studio for women Read More …

Erika Lust says her latest feature film entitled Cinco Historias Para Ellas is about to be released in Spain, but we’ll have to wait six months for the English version. I don’t speak Spanish and Erika didn’t provide a translation so I’ve clumsily turned to Babelfish. The result doesn’t sound right: Five Histories For Them. Hopefully Erika can give us a bit more detail on her blog soon. Currently she’s Read More …
