Laughter and Licking
Nice photo. I like the way she’s laughing with joy here. From a photo set at For The Girls.
Ms Naughty looks at porn for women, feminism and sex in general
Nice photo. I like the way she’s laughing with joy here. From a photo set at For The Girls.
I like this kinky pic. The guy is quite the manly specimen but he’s also wearing stockings and suspenders. In the photo series his lover dominantes him with a cane, among other things. I like it when guys wear stockings like this. It places little demands upon your assumptions about male and female roles… and it just looks hot. I blame Tim Curry entirely. I still adore watching him strut Read More …
I’ve just finished watching The Black Glove to review it for For The Girls, and I just have to blog about how fantastic the films of Maria Beatty are. This gorgeous filmmaker creates lesbian BDSM movies that are extraordinarily well crafted with a distinct artistic sensibility. The Black Glove has an amazing ethereal quality to it, like you’re watching someone’s dark fantasy come to life. I’m pleased to say that Read More …
The always-busy Erika Lust is due to release a new book this month called “X For Women” (more info here). The book is intended to be a guide for women who want to know more about porn and features various discussions about the porn industry, how to choose the right adult movie and lists of recommendations. Erika says: “We can and must be able to enjoy ourselves without feeling offended. Read More …
Erika Lust’s latest film The Barcelona Sex Project is a documentary-style erotic movie that aims to enlighten as well as arouse. The film features three men and three women talking about their hobbies, their work, their passions and their sex lives, after which they masturbate on camera. I thought it was a wonderfully engaging movie, one that was both interesting and sexy. My review of the film is appearing at Read More …
On Monday, the theme of the Oprah Winfrey show was “237 Reasons To Have Sex”. One segment on it was a relatively lengthy discussion of the usefulness of porn in spicing up a sex life. They also discussed the fact that women like porn and that – apparently – “in the $12 billion adult entertainment industry, $1 out of every $4 is spent by a woman.” And Dr. Schwartz agrees Read More …
Well, Playgirl Magazine is finished. Writer Jamye Waxman confirmed the rumours in this blog post. She says it’s a shame because Playgirl could never quite be the intelligent sex magazine for women it wanted to be. The staff at Playgirl does get it, but what they were allowed to do with that knowledge never completely translated… both because their hands were always tied and because, well, the people who approve Read More …
I’ve updated Porn Movies For Women again and added another batch of hot female-friendly titles. Sex Spells is the latest from the Playgirl factory. Interestingly, it isn’t about an erotic spelling bee, although dammit, that’s one hell of a cool idea. Lennox Films, the offshoot of Inpulse responsible for the outrageously boring Ranch House Lust has a new film out called Intense Desires which promises a sex therapist, fantasy role Read More …
I’ve been writing a lot of very wordy posts lately, getting off topic and not giving you nearly enough porn. So here’s a nice dirty pic for you to enjoy. It’s also given me an excuse to offer up a Google-friendly title for the post. And, looking at it, I think it’s a good example of porn for women because a) It shows a woman receiving pleasure and that is Read More …
The Ask Sam blog at the Sydney Morning Herald has published this post entitled “Why Women Hate Porn.” Unfortunately the article doesn’t actually discuss the whys and wherefores of any negative female reactions to porn. Rather it points out recent statistics that one in three Australian women regularly watch porn. And then the author asserts that women have taken up porn watching because it’s trendy, or because they want to Read More …
Petra Joy reports on her blog that her latest film Feeling It is up for two major awards at this year’s International Erotic Film Festival in Madrid, Spain (FICEB). The first nomination is for Best Film and the second is for Best Director. She’s up against heavyweights from the adult industry including films from Vivid and Evil Angel. It’s quite an achievement for an indie director and it’s also a Read More …
These images are from Wordle, a site that analyses text to see which words are used most often. The first image is made up of my del.icio.us tags. The second one is the result of taking all the posts on the index page (back to 19 May) and seeing what I talked about the most. I guess there’s not many surprises here.
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 …
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 …
