I would say yes, but only if he&#8217;s naked (in which case, the book in question doesn&#8217;t make the grade). In the past I&#8217;ve made two free sites featuring naked guys doing housework &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/nakedmen-nudemen.com\/domesticated\/\">Domesticated Men<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cake-party.com\/laundry\/\">Do My Laundry, Lover<\/a> and I thought the pics were quite cute. The latter combines &#8220;the raw enjoyment of perving on naked men, with the sheer pleasure of watching a guy do the laundry.&#8221; It&#8217;s a bit of fun, that&#8217;s all. I must admit I&#8217;d never pondered the serious and far-reaching feminist implications behind these sites.<\/p>\n<p>I do know that a guy who does housework is definitely preferable to one who doesn&#8217;t. I know this because I don&#8217;t do very much housework myself &#8211; my husband does most of it. Did I mention how much I love him?<\/p>\n<p>I made a comment at the bottom of Rachel&#8217;s article about how I define porn for women. It&#8217;s this:<br \/>\nPorn is for women when it does 3 things:<br \/>\n1. It acknowledges that the audience is female and is aimed specifically at women, gay or straight<br \/>\n2. It depicts a woman&#8217;s point of view and a woman&#8217;s experience of sex.<br \/>\n3. It gives primacy to female pleasure.<\/p>\n<p>Whether there&#8217;s housework involved is probably a moot point.<\/p>\n<p>Rachel also mentions For The Girls in the course of her musings and I&#8217;ll say again that it&#8217;s nice to be included in articles that discuss women&#8217;s erotica. <\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rachel Kramer Bussel has an opinion piece in the Huffington Post looking at that alleged comedy book called Porn for Women and asks if &#8220;porn for women&#8221; is a legitimate concept.
