Feminist Porn Conference<\/a><\/strong> at the University of Toronto Bahen Centre for Information Technology. I have three presentations happening over the two days:<\/p>\nFeminist Pornography: What It Is, What It Isn\u2019t, and Why It Matters<\/strong>
\nSaturday, 11-12:30
\nLynn Comella, Courtney Trouble, Ms. Naughty, Tanesha H.D.<\/p>\nFrom the mainstream press to adult industry trade shows, feminist pornography is a hot topic for discussion and debate. Despite all the recent attention, however, there remains a lack of clarity about what constitutes feminist pornography. How is feminist porn different than \u201cporn for women\u201d? In what ways is feminist porn political? Is it simply a clever marketing ploy, as some people have suggested, or something else? This panel seeks to open up a dialogue about what feminist porn is, what it isn\u2019t, and why the label feminist porn matters in a cultural climate that continues to be hostile to both feminism and sexuality more generally.<\/p>\n
Pornographers Without Borders<\/strong>
\nSaturday, 2:00-3:30
\nJennifer Lyon Bell, Pandora Blake, Ms. Naughty, Ovidie<\/p>\nAlthough feminist porn in North America has gained a lot of media attention in the last few years, it is growing and thriving in Europe and Australia as well. This panel features filmmakers who live and work in France, the Netherlands, the UK, and Australia. Panelists will explore how their aesthetics, agendas, and challenges overlap with and differ from American and Canadian feminist porn; they will also address how their work is received by international audiences. They will discuss distribution channels and strategies with an eye toward growing a global feminist porn movement.<\/p>\n
Film Screening + Director Q&A: Aussie Porn with Ms. Naughty and Zahra Stardust (Australia)<\/strong>
\nSunday 10:15-11:45
\nZahra Stardust and Ms. Naughty<\/p>\nOver the last couple of years the Australian porn industry has flourished and gained a reputation for being more “natural” and respectful towards the performers. Within this wider industry a small group of female, feminist-identified filmmakers have been creating their own vision of good porn. Last year they met as a group for the first time and have since collaborated on each other’s projects. This session gives a glimpse of the varied work created by Australian feminist pornographers.<\/p>\n
Films:<\/strong>
\nZahra Stardust and Ms. Naughty, An Open Letter To My Lovers<\/em>… 11:00min
\nZahra Stardust, Tales Of An Unrepentant Wench<\/em>… 10:00min (approx)

\nMs. Naughty, Dear Jiz<\/em>, 9:49 + Tease<\/em> 10min + The Male Gaze In Porn<\/em> 2:19min<\/p>\nOn top of all this I’m shooting five scenes and hopefully talking to some media types who might be interested in Bright Desire and my work. I think there’s a total of one day in the two weeks when I’m not madly rushing about doing something. That day will be spent laying like a starfish on a hotel bed, guzzling wine.<\/p>\n
If you’re going to the awards or conference and you see me, please say hello. I’m the one with the red hair, no fashion sense and a large and hairy husband standing close by. At the awards, I’ll be looking extra ridiculous because I’ll be wearing parts of what used to be a muppet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Tomorrow afternoon I set off to Toronto for a couple of weeks. It’s a business trip focused on the Feminist Porn Awards and Feminist Porn Conference but I’m also doing some shooting and attending some other events. To give a quick summary:<\/p>\n
