January 25, 2011

I will also be teaching an overview and instructional workshop on Impact Play. (Many of know first hand that I’m a fan of [...]
Submit to the Feminist Porn Awards
January 24, 2011
What is Feminist Porn? To me, it’s not an oxymoron. It’s any work that demonstrates sexual agency to all genders presented, no matter the context. It’s often conscious of social climate, and strives to educate or empower both its featured performers and directors, as well as its audience. It is sex-positive, and the producers perform well [...]

Chances are, if you know me, you know Tristan Taormino. Though HOW you know of her may vary. You may know her from her extensive career as an author and editor. Or you may know her from her numerous sex education and relationship workshops, and speaking and keynote presentations throughout the world. And, you may [...]
Swan on Swan – Black Swan’s Sexy Tropes
January 20, 2011
Last weekend I saw Black Swan with porn cohort Drew DeVeaux. Actually, the fact that the two of us saw it together was perfect, considering the fact that the two of us have dance backgrounds (and pulled those into our scene together in Roulette Toronto). Sharing a bag of M&Ms and water, we cuddled and [...]
This is What I Want: A Call for Submissions for SF Performance of Art and sex
January 18, 2011
As many of you know, I have a background in the San Francisco Arts scene as a performer and arts administrator, and later as a web consultant and site developer for many non-profits, small businesses and artists. My path to porn was for the most part developed through sexually explicit performance art (through twincest and [...]

We-Vibe 2′s Campaign to Strengthen Relationships… and Save the World?
January 6, 2011
I just found out about a pretty cool and interesting marketing campaign that a sex toy company called We-Vibe is doing. Here’s the website: we-vibe.com/50billionreasons The basic idea for their promotion is that couples who use the We-Vibe will have healthier and longer-lasting relationships. Through cute interactive factoids, the campaign makes funny points about sex [...]
Buy Smut to Wine & Dine Me!

UPDATE! Thank you so much everyone for purchasing an item and supporting me! The deadline for this special order offer was Wednesday, and yesterday I sent a bunch of signed photos with personal stories, and autographed DVDs off to wonderful friends. I did not find a buyer for the “slightly well-used but cleaned” Bandit VixSkin [...]
