Nude Rugby Players
I’m not so keen on rugby, but I do like it when they take off their clothes. The Mirror has the full set along with a bunch of other nude athlete photos here.
Fanny Hill, Minus The Rude Bits
Last night I watched the BBC’s impressive adaption of John Cleland’s famous dirty novel, Fanny Hill. The film was written by Andrew Davies, the genius who had us all swooning over Mr Darcy in a wet shirt in Pride and Prejudice, so naturally, it made for a very entertaining and amusing hour and a half. Nonetheless, the experience was also rather disconcerting. The BBC’s costume dramas usually inhabit stuffier, more Read More …
Walking Into The Forest Of Female Desire
The New York Times has an extensive article on research into female desire and lust, profiling the hardworking scientists who are studying this relatively new field of human sexuality (i.e. nobody’s bothered to look into what turns women on. Go figure.) What I found really interesting was the discussion about how the old ideas of romance and relationships aren’t what really get the juices flowing. It’s being lusted after that Read More …
Hunks In Aretha’s Hat
Might as well get in on this internet meme and make it better by using naked men!
The Naked Truth About Lust
I’m a bit late with this article but I do love what it’s saying: that women enjoy perving just as much as men. The tiresome myth that women are not as visually aroused as men is used to justify everything from sexual assault to double standards about public toplessness, and it’s time to kill it dead. If the oceans of female drool spilt over Obama (and Daniel Craig and Jude Read More …
New Porn Movies For Women
Phew! Today I spent waaay too much time updating Porn Movies For Women. I’ve actually added a total of 21 new titles to the listing, which is pretty impressive considering it’s only been two months since I last updated it. I created a new page for Kelly Holland’s Chick Media, which last year released four titles including the MySexTherapist series. The first one earned her the Sexiest Straight Film at Read More …
The New Face Of Porn
Alison Lee of Canadian adult shop Good For Her has written an extensive article looking at porn for women, the feminist anti-porn movement and her own experiences with porn. It makes for great reading. A snippet: Seeing the world of Big Porn showed me that not only are women left out, but men are presented with an incredibly bland palate to work from and to mold their own sexuality. I Read More …
Rated X Festival – Wish I Was There
Tomorrow marks the start of another wonderful erotic film festival, this time in the Netherlands. The Rated-X Alternative Erotica Film Festival features a fascinating variety of unusual, artistic and very sexy films offering a very different view of sexuality and porn. It’s almost the exact opposite of what was recently on show at the AVN awards. At the Berlin Porn Film Festival I was very lucky to meet one of Read More …
Surprise!
I found this on the FAILBlog and just had to post it. Love the facial expressions. Some commenters said that the advertiser may have intentionally created the ad this way.
AVN… Again
So the 2009 AVN Awards and Expo have come and gone and, as before, there’s nothing new to report. The industry has successfully patted itself on the back for producing more of the same. The only award worth mentioning was the one given to Tristan Taormino for her Expert Guide to Oral Sex: Fellatio. Innocent Pictures’ All About Anna didn’t win anything despite several nominations. It’s kind of depressing that Read More …
A New Year
I’m finally back from my various holiday travels burdened with a toxic liver, extra weight around the middle and not much motivation to work. My new year’s resolutions are typical in some areas: drink less alcohol, exercise more, maybe eat more vegetarian meals each week. Others aren’t what you’d see on your average “to do list”: write a movie script, make a short film or two, maybe travel to the Read More …
A Festive Break
And thus, I’m off. I was going to do filler posts for the Christmas/New Year period but I’ve run out of time. So while I’m off at the beach enjoying the festive season, please visit the FTG blog for your regular dose of smut and interesting reading
Porn For Women Retrospective 2008
Another year has flown and once again we’ve seen plenty of highs (and some lows) in the world of porn for women. 2008 saw more acknowledgement of women as consumers of adult material although things haven’t changed as much as I’d like. I would say that the standout for this year has been the huge growth in the visibility and availability of authentic lesbian erotica such as The Crash Pad Read More …
A New Joy Of Sex, Censorship And Other Linky Stuff
Once again I’ve got a bunch of things to write about and I’m just going to be lazy and bung them all into one post with a nice sexy pic to make it a bit more fun. First – they’re about to release the rejiggered Joy Of Sex. The New York Times has a great article about how the book has aged and it goes into some interesting detail about Read More …
