Ms Naughty looks at porn for women, feminism and sex in general
Obsessing about my place in Google once again I found a rather long winded feminist essay about women’s porn, entitled: Rape Culture: Renegotiating Sexual Subjectivity on Porn Sites for Women. The piece takes a rather large philosophical stick to Sssh.com, which is an adult site for women that’s been around for roughly the same time as For The Girls. It does this in an attempt to make a general point Read More …
It’s Black Friday so I thought I’d post a small pic of a man with a big dick. Subtle, understated. You may have noticed I haven’t posted much this week. Been busy with friends and relatives visiting and I’m also fighting off a huge wave of apathy. I just can’t seem to feel motivated about anything this week. Winter has set in and I just want to hibernate. Next week Read More …
A while ago I made a little site called ExExExChurch which is my response to the way some religious groups are fixated on the idea of “porn addiction.” The name is a play on one of the worst culprits, XXXChurch, a insistent rabble of lunatics who believe that masturbation is a sin. Anyway, via Fleshbot I found this news story of another bunch of self-righteous busybodies who are filming the Read More …
June is a big month for milestones, it seems. Today marks the fourth anniversary of when I started the Ms Naughty blog. Back then I was using a very simple script and I wasn’t obsessive about writing everyday, but it was a good start. Four years of writing around five posts a week is a big job. Blogging can really suck up your time, and your life. But it’s a Read More …
I fondly remember the genuine quirkiness of the first episode of Malcolm In The Middle, mainly because of the opening scene when Malcolm’s mother Lois answers the door topless. Caroline: I’m here because I think there is a tremendous opportunity for Malcolm. Could you maybe put a top on? Lois: They’re just boobs, lady. You see ’em in the mirror every morning, and I’m sure yours are a lot nicer Read More …
A couple of years ago Anna Brownfield made waves when her film The Money Shot won numerous awards at the Melbourne Underground Film Festival. When the ABC show Mondo Thingo decided to do a piece on “chick porn” they interviewed Anna as the local representative of the porn for women movement.* Now Anna is about to release her first full-on porn film called The Band. Set in the grungy Melbourne Read More …
Erika Lust is about to release her second major film – the Barcelona Sex Project. This documentary-style film is a move away from her plot-based vignettes of Five Hot Stories For Her. A feminist adult movie, created for women by women, the film discloses the private lives and sexuality of six individuals. The project is based on the conviction that women desire to know a person’s inner character (their beliefs, 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 June again and that means that it’s For The Girls’ birthday! Way back in the mists of time – June 2003 – my friend Jane and I launched our little-porn-site-that-could. We gathered together all our favourite dirty pics and movies, and I collected a whole bunch of my articles and columns, and off we went. We started small, and our first billing company – Globill – collapsed within a Read More …
I just had to post this very cool photo of comedian Bill Bailey, who is a very, very funny man. A snippet from his blog: What is this lunacy of making people pledge allegiance to the Queen? I could understand if it was allegiance to the band Queen.
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 …
A man on the psychiatrist’s couch sees, in ink blot after ink blot, nothing but sexual imagery. A butterfly shape looks like testicles, a hilly mountain-scape like a rollicking bedroom scene, and so on. When the shrink delivers his verdict – you, sir, are a sex fiend – the man is indignant. “What?” he huffs. “But you’re the one drawing the dirty pictures!”
Another statistic to add to my collection. A survey of Swedish women by “yummy mummy” magazine Mama says that 28% of them have looked at online porn. This tallies with numerous other surveys which seem to always conclude that around a third of all women like to indulge in a little smut occasionally. The survey also found that just because women become mothers, it doesn’t mean that they’re not also Read More …
I sometimes muse about the way that the nude male body is hidden from public view, but the female form is considered to be public property. Apparently this is not the case in the gay community. MCV has a piece discussing the fact that advertisers targeting gay men almost always resort to using beefcake to sell their wares. Doesn’t matter what the product is, chances are it will be accompanied Read More …
