First They Came For The Pornographers…

Posted on6 Comments

Back in 2008 a censorship controversy erupted over Bill Henson’s photographs of nude teenage girls. Police raided the gallery and shut down the exhibition, the Prime Minister called the images “disgusting” and a lynch mob mentality generally prevailed. Eventually the images were classified “G” (suitable for children) by the censors. Since that time the art world has become increasingly paranoid about censorship and have been self-censoring images of children, including Read More …

Sex Fantasy Stories

Posted on

In late 2003 I bought SexFantasyStories.com and put a few examples of my erotic fiction on it. I then expanded it to include an AVS site a couple of years later. Since then, however, it’s been horribly neglected. The design was seriously ugly and very much in need of a revamp. And then I noticed it was getting traffic after Google’s nasty Panda algorithm change on Monday. In the meantime, Read More …

Cake and Cunnilingus Day 2011

Posted on1 Comment

Quite a while ago I got a little peeved at the whole “Steak and a Blowjob Day” idea. The men behind it reckoned Valentine’s Day was all about women forcing men to buy them gifts and dinner. The whole thing relies on tiresome stereotypes about men and women. So while I could have sat down and written extensive blog posts unpacking the philosophy, I thought, fuck it. Instead I’ll just Read More …

Porn For Women (?)

Posted on1 Comment

I thought I’d have fun today and thus made a little promo video for For The Girls, messing with the idea of “what women want” – the men doing housework, the bridal stroll along the beach, the romance novels… I have to say, it took a lot longer than I expected because I had to only use sexy videos that weren’t remotely explicit, while still giving the idea of sex. Read More …

Sun Stroke

Posted on

I’m still very busy with editing the new member’s area of For The Girls. The articles are almost completed and we’re due to move on to the galleries and movies. It’s getting there, slowly but surely. And as you can see, the blog is a little neglected. So here’s a naked man to tide you over: Sun Stroke: Michal gets nude and masturbates outdoors. He’s got quite the six pack Read More …

The Birth Of Cleo Magazine

Posted on

I’m looking forward to an upcoming TV series about Cleo – the Australian women’s magazine that featured male centerfolds (only a few months after Cosmo had pioneered it with Burt Reynolds). If you follow the blog you’ll have already seen the image of actor Jack Thompson nude in the first ever Cleo male centerfold. The TV series features a scene showing how Jack’s legendary “Venus” photo was shot. Cleo was Read More …

Poems Punishable By Jail

Wendy Bacon was a campaigner against Australian censorship in the 1960s and 70s. In this amazing article, she details the fight of students against censorship in those heady libertarian days. This was a time when the Minister for Customs justified bans on books by saying “normal healthy Australians would not be interested in the works of DH Lawrence and Henry Miller anyway.” Wendy and her friends conducted civil disobedience activities Read More …

The Thrill Of Tagging Erotic Fiction

Posted on

I’ve just finished hand-editing every single piece of erotic fiction at For The Girls. It was a huge job, manually going through eight years of content, looking at every single story (400+) on the site, fixing the text and photos and then adding categories and tags to each one. I’ve re-read every one of our erotic stories and there’s just so many brilliant pieces of writing. I’ve been immersed in Read More …
