Ms Naughty looks at porn for women, feminism and sex in general
We don’t really have Halloween in Australia, something I’m kind of pleased about because it means there are no obnoxious children knocking on my door demanding lollies. What I do like about Halloween is how a lot of porn sites create special Halloween-themed galleries. Like Trixie’s Houseboy which has made this page with Tucker dressed as a 50’s bad boy. The pic above is from Barely Evil, a rather spectacular Read More …
Playgirl has released it’s 8th film, entitled Stripped. “Strip away inhibitions,” the spiel says. “Strip away rules. Strip away the artifice. Let your guard fall and discover the passion that makes your heart pulse. It’s time to dive in and get real!” From the looks of it this is yet another vignette film featuring bog-standard sex scenes in different scenarios. The big question is… will the girls get to come Read More …
A quick visit to the adult Adult DVD Talk forums lead me to this thread about which female porn stars are the most orgasmic on screen. I thought I’d just compile a quick list here for all my readers who are keen to see women coming in porn. Unfortunately, most of the films recommended have classy titles like “Cream Filled Chocolate Holes” but if you don’t have a prob with Read More …
Ananova reports on a slightly dodgy survey done by an eyewear company that says that women spend an average of 1 month of their life ogling at men. The researchers say that women will pick out two men a day and check out the talent for an average of 90 seconds each. And we’ll look at their eyes first, before having a good old perve at their bums. I feel Read More …
Australian online adult retailer Adultshop.com is challenging the Office of Film and Literature Classification (OFLC) as to what constitutes “community standards.” They’ve appealed a decision by the OFLC giving the film Viva Erotica an X rating (which means it can only be sold in the ACT, NT and online). They say the film’s depiction of sex will not offend a “reasonable adult”, which is the criteria for handing out an Read More …
Researchers at the Department of Psychology at the University of Minnesota have found that the brain responds to erotic images, even when the mind is not conscious of the image. Using a technique called interocular suppression, a selection of men and women – both gay and straight – were shown the subliminal images and their responses measured. Straight women’s attention increased after an image of a naked man was flashed Read More …
This month’s Women’s Health magazine features an article about “Igniting sleepy sex drives.” An engaged couple of thirty-somethings are given an assignment to check out some porn and see if they can put some zing into late night sex. Following the recommendations of a female friend who enjoys porn, Stacey brought home three movies. At 10 P.M. she popped Playgirl’s Burning Lust into the DVD player, and before long she Read More …
While doing research for an article I came across Salon’s piece on guys who own Real Dolls (you’ll have to watch an ad to read it, or you can check out the extended version here). Now, while I can understand that many of these guys may just be using them as a handy-dandy masturbation tool, I have to say that on the whole, I’m feeling a bit creeped out. Some Read More …
Jocelyn Wentland, a researcher at the University of Guelph in Canada, has conducted research into women’s sexual pleasure. Over 1500 women with an average age of 27 completed a questionaire about their sex lives. Results are here. It seems that today’s young women are quite relaxed about their own sexuality and are not afraid to take their pleasure when it suits them. A few results: * 88% are easily sexually Read More …
This morning I read a board post promoting Clitoraid, a charity aiming to help African women overcome female genital mutilation. The idea is you can “adopt a clitoris” and donate money to help establish a “pleasure hospital” where surgeons will operate on FGM women “uncovering the root of the original clitoris left after the excision. This root and tissues will become the new clitoris. The procedure takes 6 weeks for Read More …
Australian patron of anti-feminist backlash sentiments, Bettina Arndt, has written an opinion piece berating all those nasty 70s feminists, particularly Shere Hite, for “oppressing” women who have orgasms via intercourse. She’s claiming that new research into the nerve endings of the vagina has made the old vag “fashionable” again after decades of “clitoromania.” Thankfully, Emma Tom has her own spin on this rather over-the-top piece: A better response to Whipple Read More …
Spammers have been studying the classics, it seems. Today, amid the usual Viagra and penis enlargement deluge I received an email consisting entirely of sentences from Jane Austin’s Pride and Prejudice. P&P is a favourite book of mine, so I found it all rather amusing. Especially because several of the phrases were juxtaposed so as to make it all rather naughty: “yes, vanity is a weakness indeed. but pride-where there Read More …
Writer India Knight has edited a book called Dirty Bits For Girls. The book is an anthology of those well-thumbed naughty bits cherished by an older generation of women, back when information about sex was a lot harder to find. India’s article on her book appears in the Times Online. Seems that 80s power novels and bodice-ripping romances were highly prized for stirring the erotic imagination. It’s one of those Read More …
Sigh. The myth rears it’s ugly head again. This time it’s in the Sun newspaper, quoting sex tips from alleged expert Val Sampson, author of How To Have Great Sex For The Rest Of Your Life. Here’s the offending paragraph: 2) DON’T RELY ON VISUALS Women are much more turned on by what they think and hear than men, who like visual stimulation. Try reading erotic fiction. Porn movies rarely Read More …
This hunky man has just had an orgasm. Don’t you wish you’d been there? He features in video number 0406 at Beautiful Agony. If you haven’t heard of it before, Beautiful Agony is a very different kind of porn site, one that offers videos of men and women in the throes of orgasm – but you can only see their face. It’s such a unique concept, but it’s surprisingly sexy. Read More …
