\"\"In the last month there’s been a flurry of mainstream articles about feminist porn and porn for women and I’ve been way too busy to do anything but tweet them. A lot of these articles have emerged in the wake of the publication of The Feminist Porn Book<\/em> (I’m in it, buy it now!)<\/a>. So, for the sake of posterity, I’m just going to whack them all willy-nilly into one big blog post for later reference.<\/p>\n

“There isn\u2019t one monolithic thing and,\u00a0yes, of course, built into feminist porn is the notion that we\u2019re critiquing porn that\u2019s already\u00a0out there, that we feel like doesn\u2019t represent female sexuality in a diverse enough way, doesn\u2019t\u00a0prioritize female pleasure, doesn\u2019t represent authentic female desire, or simply doesn\u2019t get us\u00a0off. So we\u2019re going to go and make our own.”
\n– The Feminist Pornographer<\/a> – an extensive interview with Tristan Taormino at Salon.com<\/p>\n

“I had experienced sex in my personal life as a mostly positive, enjoyable, and liberating experience. I wanted to see that experience in the porn I was consuming. Like many female viewers, I had difficulty relating to the women in these films and their sexual presentations.”
\n– How I Became A Feminist Porn Star<\/a> – Dylan Ryan’s excerpt from the Feminist Porn Book at Jezebel <\/p>\n

“One of the biggest mistakes main\u00adstream pornographers make is thinking their market is not interested in any other images of black women except these outrageously stereo\u00adtyped ones.”
\n– Transforming Pornography: Black porn for black women<\/a> – Sinnamon Love’s excerpt from the Feminist Porn Book at Guernica<\/p>\n

“We are these people. We are fat, hairy and really fucking gay. We are not a fetish.”
\n– Lascivious: For The Love Of Porn<\/a> – a column about queer feminist porn by Queerie Bradshaw at Vice.com<\/p>\n

“The question: can sexual consent exist when you’re doing it for the money? Who is in charge of making sure everyone’s needs are respected?”
\n– Giving consent to capitalism<\/a> – San Francisco Bay Guardian<\/p>\n

The EU in its wisdom is proposing a ban on “all pornography in all media” supposedly to get rid of gender stereotypes and sexism. So smart. Here’s a couple of articles pointing out the obvious stupidity of this move:
\nEU Porn Ban: Women watch porn too<\/a>
\nEU wants to fix gender inequality – by banning porn?<\/a><\/p>\n

Cinekink has just wound up its 10th erotic film festival and my friend Zoe Margolis was there. It included a showing of feminist porn clips.
\n– Cinekink celebrates a very un-American view of sex on film<\/a> – The Guardian<\/p>\n
