Ms Naughty looks at porn for women, feminism and sex in general
I read on Petra Joy’s blog today that her award winning bi scene from Female Fantasies was cut out of some copies of her film at the behest of a dealer. Male bi sexuality and female/male role reversal is still a major taboo in mainstream porn. So this scene was censored by one of my big dealers who accepted “Female Fantasies” on their shelves only if that particular scene that Read More …
This week at For The Girls I’ve reviewed Tristan Taormino’s Expert Guide To Cunnilingus which recently won a prestigious butt plug at the Feminist Porn Awards. Tristan is doing a great job with her educational series from Vivid and this is no exception. Aside from clearly explaining anatomy and giving handy tips for good pussy licking, the movie offers a number of seriously hot cunnilingus sex scenes. It’s worth recommending Read More …
Over the weekend I watched all four Alien films plus AVP. It inspired me to get out my book of H.R. Giger’s amazing surreal artwork, some of which is amazingly explicit. Everything he creates has a lurking, dark sexual element to it, as if tapping into the vast and unvoiced fears of our sexual subconscious. It’s both arousing and frightening. Indeed, if you watch the first Alien film, I can’t Read More …
JavaScript is required to view this page. This is a little ad I made for For The Girls a while ago and I’ve just converted it into a flash movie using a new bit of software I’ve bought called EasyFLV. I’ve been meaning to learn more about flash for a few months but I was procrastinating. Instead I just forked out some money for a little program that does it 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 …
Here, my good friends, is an example of what sort of photos should have been in that Porn for Women book. Yes, it’s a guy doing the housework. But take note, dear readers, of one crucial and vital difference. Yes, Niko here is drop-dead gorgeous and he’s completely fucking naked.
It seems that the canon of women’s literary erotica is growing, and that’s a good thing. The latest book release is Dirty Girls, edited by Rachel Kramer Bussell. I received my review copy the other day but I haven’t had much of a chance to read it. The few stories I have read have been amazing, so I think it’s worth checking out. Here’s the official blurb off the back: 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 …
I’ve now watched Erika Lust’s debut film Five Hot Stories For Her and I have to say I’m very impressed. This film won movie of the year at the Feminist Porn Awards and I think it deserved it. Certainly this film now shares a spot on my “all time favourites” list. Five Hot Stories For Her is a pretty good title. This movie has consists of five individual short films, Read More …
Amazon has gone a little beserk and printed a large chunk of Susie Bright’s introduction to Best American Erotica 2008 on their site. Not that I’m complaining, of course, because it makes for great reading. A snippet: Nowadays, I don’t think there’re mainstream novelists who haven’t been asked what role sexuality plays in their fiction — or why they’re pussyfooting around, if they continue to avoid it. It’s the stuff Read More …
Here’s another book chock full of lusty reading if you’re in the mood to stimulate your imagination. I like this one because it’s really all about straight-out fantasy, and it’s always hot to read what gets other women off. Official blurb: The Mammoth Book of Women’s Fantasies is the newest addition to the lustily successful Mammoth Erotica series featuring the year’s—and the world’s—best erotic fiction. Featured in this steamy collection Read More …
Violet Blue has posted her call for submissions for Best Women’s Erotica 2009. The deadline is 1st May 2009 and the guidelines look pretty similar to last year. I really liked what Violet had to write about creating a top quality erotica collection that reflects women: Let’s give women readers what they really want (as sales have shown). Let’s show mainstream publishing (who are still afraid of publishing books like Read More …
Great news. Petra Joy’s third film, Feeling It, is due for release in March 2008. The film also has a website which features some wonderful still photos from the movie and information about the stars. There are some hot new amateur performers involved who were recruited from Europe during Petra’s travels. A few excerpts from the site: Petra’s motto “Feeling it, not faking it!” is being embraced passionately by the Read More …
The latest Best Women’s Erotica book is out, once again edited by Violet Blue. I haven’t had a chance to read it but here’s the official blurb: Best Women’s Erotica 2008 delivers risky, romantic, heart-pounding thrills. Joyful, daring, and authentic, these 21 steamy stories revel in erotic adventure, from the sparks between strangers to the knowing caresses of long-time lovers. In “Penalty Fare,†a Londoner rides train after train without Read More …
Zoe Margolis, the Girl With A One Track Mind, has written a piece for the Guardian about the recent Erotica sexuality expo held in London. She says that even though the event attracted record numbers of women, there were hardly any half-naked men on display. The lack of catering for the straight female audience was evident throughout: all the pole dancers were female; the porn stars signing DVDs were female; Read More …
