Ms Naughty Goes Adventuring

Well folks, this is my last proper blog post for about four weeks. I’m off on my big trip to the Berlin Porn Film Festival where my short film That’s What I Like is having its premiere on Sunday the 25th Oct at 8pm. I’m very excited about attending the festival and meeting so many wonderful female porn directors. Candida Royalle, Petra Joy, Shine Louise Houston, Jennifer Lyon Bell, Maria Read More …

For The Girls Welcomes Tyler Knight

I’m really late with this announcement but it’s still worth shouting from the rooftops: gorgeous male porn star and Heartthrob of the Year Tyler Knight is writing a regular column for For The Girls! Tyler has long had ambitions to write and his straight-from-the-heart columns about life inside the porn industry are compulsively readable. A taster: We have never met. What happens between us is not chemistry. It is biology. Read More …

IGAD! International Gynae Awareness Day

I’m disappointed I missed it this year: International Gynae Awareness Day (and week) was on September 10. It aims primarily to encourage the breaking down of entrenched social, and cultural taboos, still surrounding most things ‘gynaecological’. It was founded by Kath Mazella, who 15 years ago endured radical surgery to overcome vulval cancer; she had her vulva and clitoris removed to save her life. She’s now working to make sure Read More …

The Home For Lost Boys

If you’ve got a thing for very thin, gothy-looking, half-naked men then you’ll be pleased to discover the Home For Lost Boys. It’s a relatively new membership site featuring galleries of “alternative, beautiful, non-mainstream boys” and it does seem to be aimed at women. The FAQ says that they’re not necessarily a porn site: The site focuses on sensual, rather than explicit, content. None of our models are required to Read More …

Spanish Media Looks At Porn For Women

A couple of weeks ago I was interviewed by a journalist from the Spanish media site 20 Minutos. Their article about porn for women is finally out – available here. Unfortunately it’s all in Spanish and – curse my monolingual Aussie heritage – I don’t really know what it says. Except that the photos let me know it’s got comments by Spanish erotic filmmaker Erika Lust. Babelfish to the rescue. Read More …

A History Of English Marriage

The white dress, the reception, the invitations… the way we get married feels very traditional, as if it’s been done that way forever. Trouble is, our idea of marriage has only been around since Victorian times. The Times has a fantastic article about the history of marriage in England and how its changed over the centuries. It is surprising perhaps that the white wedding is still in vogue. There is Read More …

British Censors Finally Allow Female Ejaculation Scene

I’ve just received a PR email from British adult film director Anna Span. She’s won an important legal victory over the British Board of Film Classification (UK censors) over whether female ejaculation exists. Her film Women Love Porn, which contains shorts from five separate female directors, has been held up for several years thanks to the original ruling of the BBFC with regards to the ejaculation scene. The censors maintained Read More …

My First Premiere

I found my heart beating a little faster this week when the organisers of the Berlin Porn Film Festival sent me their catalogue for the upcoming festival. There it was, my film, scheduled to screen at 6pm on Sunday 25th October, 2009. How completely exciting! I remember the first time I had anything published: it was an erotic story in Australian Women’s Forum in 1997. This film premiere is kind Read More …
