Ms Naughty looks at porn for women, feminism and sex in general
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 …
My eyes, the goggles do nothing! Yes folks, don’t say I never give you anything. Here he is in all his 1980s synthesizer glory, Mike The Superhero. Stay tuned for the bit at 1:50 when a lovely bit of pectoral flexing goes on. And yes, that is his own moustache. What can I say? This is exactly why so many people believe that “women aren’t visual.” Thank goodness Manpower upped 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 …
Buckback Mountain: Clip 4 This is a relatively softcore clip from Buckback Mountain which stars female-to-male transsexual performer Buck Angel. I’ve been a fan of Buck for several years, especially since I interviewed him for For The Girls. His website is well worth checking out because it does such a damned good job of messing with your head. Buck’s porn challenges ingrained ways of thinking about male and female roles… Read More …
Once again I’m neglecting my blog in favour of Twitter, so here’s a lovely naked man photo to keep you amused. I was perusing some older pics today and found this photo of Sebastian. It’s one of my favourites. You’ll find the full set at For The Girls.
Romance novels have long been considered to be trashy, something that plenty of women read but should not brag about. Now there are feminists standing up for their right to read good romantic fiction. Beyond Heaving Bosoms: The Smart Bitches Guide to Romance Novels recommends the good stuff. There’s a great interview with the author here. I liked this quote. MV: Why should feminists read romance novels? SW: It’s a 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 …
You may have noticed I haven’t been posting much this week. That’s because I’m having too much fun making a little short film. It started out as a 30 second promo and now it’s stretched to 3 minutes and I’m thinking of entering it into film festivals. Can’t wait to get it finished and out there. The above song by the Divinyls is my ideal choice for the music (which Read More …
20 years ago today, I first kissed my husband. Yes, it’s kind of obsessive that I remember the date, but it’s one occasion I’ve always thought worth remembering. I was 15 at the time… and pretty new to kissing too. And damn, if it wasn’t a lovely bit of smooching. It wasn’t love at first kiss, though. The whole thing was a false start. It took us six months to Read More …
Found this great video about Candida Royalle on Youtube (via her site). If you’ve never seen any of her films this gives plenty of titillating glimpses into scenes from many of her films, plus a few short interviews and behind-the-scenes footage. I’m surprised Youtube hasn’t deleted it, to be honest. It’s all very raunchy! You’ll find all of Candida’s films on the Femme page at Porn Movies For Women.
Sheesh. I’m shaking my head at this EW article: Is Wolverine the most homoerotic movie ever? The writer declares the whole movie to be GAY GAY GAY because Hugh Jackman takes his shirt off and there’s a naked fight scene. Because male flesh can only ever be shown in a gay context and it’s not like there’d be any chicks in the audience of an action movie, right? Thankfully a Read More …
Here’s a relatively long video report from the Feminist Porn Awards, held on the 25th April. The video is by Xtra which is a queer friendly site and it gives some great interviews from award participants. What it doesn’t do, however, is give the viewer a complete picture of the awards, mainly because it focuses solely on the queer performers. And I’ve noticed that in the last week, almost all Read More …
