Ms Naughty looks at porn for women, feminism and sex in general
Well, tomorrow I say goodbye to all this and head off for 6 weeks gallavanting around Europe. Well, France, mostly, but I’m also popping in to Switzerland and Italy and I’m also having a few nights in Amsterdam. I’m also spending a week in Berlin to attend the Berlin Porn Film Festival from the 22nd October. I’m looking forward to meeting all the wonderful collegues I’ve been chatting to online, Read More …
In the wake of For The Girls’ fourth erotic fiction competition, I feel the need to make a post urging aspiring authors to follow a few simple rules when writing erotic fiction. I feel this because, even though there were plenty of absolutely gorgeous and cleverly written short stories entered, there were also plenty of bombs. Yes folks, there are people out there who fancy themselves as masters of the Read More …
The Olympics is primarily populated by young people. When it comes to the sports of athletics, cycling, gymnastics and swimming, you’re over the hill when you turn 25. But a number of women have ignored conventional wisdom and are now Olympians in 2008. Post motherhood. German Oksana Chusovitina is 33 and has been a gymnast for 20 years. When I saw her competing amongst the pre-pubescent girls that dominate in Read More …
Wasted far too much time this afternoon watching the synchronised diving, mainly because of the gorgeous guys in the Canadian team – Alexandre Despatie and Arturo Miranda. Lovely eye candy, especially given they’re wearing only Speedos for their events. And Michael Phelps may be cleaning up the gold medals in Swimming, but who can deny that Eamon Sullivan is simply the most delectable guy at the pool. NBC has a Read More …
So the Beijing Olympics are in full swing and that means I’m getting terribly distracted by gorgeous male swimmers, gymnasts, divers, rowers and… well pretty much all of them. There’s a veritable plethora of gloriously toned and muscled male flesh on display and a lot of the time its packed into lycra, as you can see in the video above. Actually, I just had to include the clip from Roy Read More …
I’m now going to try and learn French in six weeks. How do you say “Sacre Bleu, tres idiot!”? I’m your typical monolinguistic Australian and it’s a bit embarrassing really. We didn’t have any kind of language classes at my small country school; indeed, I was of the generation that didn’t receive any real lessons in grammar because it wasn’t considered necessary*. So now’s my chance jump in and make Read More …
Here’s another nice pic, added to make up for my general lack of blogliness lately. I’ve been seriously distracted by… well, life, actually, so posting has fallen by the wayside the last few days. I’m going to France in a couple of months and you’d be surprised how much time it’s possible to spend reading hotel reviews on TripAdvisor. I am also on something of a high after the discovery Read More …
Yesterday the blogosphere heard about the frustration of blogger Debauchette, who discovered that porn mag Tight had lifted large parts of her writing and passed it off as original. Today I find I’m in the same boat. Doing a spot of Google rank research for this blog I discovered that some shit site called Radical Left had lifted the entire text of my I Hate The Money Shot article and Read More …
Through the magic of Twitter I found myself perusing Amp Magazine and this article that has prompted me to post a quick rant. You see, the author has gone out of her way to suggest that the character of John Bender (that’s the bad boy Judd Nelson one) in the Breakfast Club was actually gay. And that none of us ever noticed it. I read it and thought… what? Surely Read More …
It’s a long hard climb but I’m gonna get there, I’m climbing to the morning sun. I’ve been down this week. This frog tells me all I need to know. I’ve got both DVDs of the early Sesame Street episodes. It’s a bizarre thing to watch because I remember so much of it. Viewing all those little segments triggers memories of my childhood, and I remember the emotions and thoughts Read More …
I watched the final of the Eurovision song contest last night and all the songs I liked didn’t do very well. I was so relieved and happy to hear the UK’s Hot Chocolate disco song because it wasn’t yet another boy band… but it came last. Denmark had a happy-go-lucky song that was very likeable and I also enjoyed the whimsy of the French song with its female singers wearing Read More …
Something has been bugging me for a long time now, so I’m going to have a little rant about it. It seems that there are a lot of people out there who don’t like the term “porn for women.” I realise this – and I’ve discussed the ins and outs of it plenty of times on the blog. But I’m just gonna have to talk about it again. The thing Read More …
My decision not to have kids was hard to make, but it was the right one for me. Now, it seems, I’ve been backed up by a psychologist who says that having children significantly reduces people’s happiness. Research from Europe shows that, while people are very happy when expecting a baby, this drops off when the child is born and the nappies start piling up. Apparently all those cute moments Read More …
I have a piece of paper that says I can be a teacher. I have no intention of using it unless I’m desperate because teaching in 2008 is a shit job that is undervalued and underpaid. But I suspect that I would have no hope of employment even if I did go mad and decided I wanted to teach. That’s because teachers are supposed to be flawless, upstanding members of Read More …
Here’s a pic from one of the new couples galleries at For The Girls. It’s a lovely set of photos with lots of intimacy and eye contact – and it starts with him serenading her with a guitar. I thought I’d best whack up a nice porn pic to keep you all placated… all of you… all of my thousands of readers out there… er… hello? Anyway, I’ve been slack Read More …
