Tuesdays with Julie

Zaftig and wicked dominatrix Julie Simone sent along this snapshot of domestic tranquility at her place, as captured in her forthcoming “Vicious Vixxxens 6: Asphyxiating Ariel.” Because I am interested in how things work, I asked Simone about her process. “What do you call what you’re doing to that poor girl?” I asked. “Tuesday,” she [...]

Girls And Corpses Night at Club Hell

It’s so important to support the arts in a city that thinks more of a five-and-under on “Three And A Half Men” than it does my recent stage triumph “Gram Ponante Comes on Your Face.” But this Saturday a group of entities is getting together to sponsor Dark Carnival Night at Club Hell on Santa [...]

The Upper Floor and underground of Kink.com

San Francisco’s Kink.com, founded in 1997 as a single, catch-all fetish website, has grown to an umbrella organization comprising almost 20 specific, constantly updated websites for which content is generated around the world and collected in one big building on Mission Street. The Armory, as I mentioned before, is a massive and imposing stone structure [...]

So long for now, Lorelei or: Lorelei Lee’s shocking departure

Lorelei Lee left today on a cross-country road trip to New York, where she will be attending graduate school. At San Francisco’s Kink.com Armory, Lee this week directed a scene for the site Wired Pussy that counts as her last paid work before school starts. She’ll be returning now and then on breaks. Luckily, graduate [...]

If you want to be Hollie Stevens, be Hollie Stevens

Hollie Stevens is one of my favorite porn performers. Why? Because she really makes me think. On a trip to San Francisco this week, Stevens regaled me on a wide variety of subjects, including identity theft, menstruation, and designer suicide. First up was the issue of a San Francisco Craigslist hooker who was using her [...]

Nina Hartley’s heart-shaped ass as a fundamental human right

Nina Hartley donated some ass-pinkening for the greater good last weekend at the Woodhull Sexual Freedom Foundation’s first Los Angeles fundraiser, which featured a great deal of leather and people practiced at wielding it. The Woodhull Foundation embraces the idea that sexual freedom is a fundamental human right, as opposed to something that is only [...]

Don’t you forget about John Hughes

Others may feel differently, but this was the most shocking thing I ever saw in a movie aimed at my then demographic: Molly Ringwald’s stunt crotch from 1985′s “The Breakfast Club.” (The second most arresting cinematic moment came a year later when Isabella Rosselini said “Hit me, Jeffrey.”) Iconic 80′s director John Hughes died of [...]

I will be a guest on the inaugural episode of “Is This Normal?”, a sexology and sex ed show on TalkingSexRadio (“Where adults can be adults”) tonight from 8 to 10.

UN Secretary General: Hairy and Slutty beats Unconvincing Femdom every time

My needs are simple, yet look how exorbitantly Vixen Vogel accommodates them in “Brazen And Unshaven.” Not only that, but after writing about porn for several years, my expectations are also low. Hence the deep satisfaction I felt about “Slut Wife Training 4,” despite the fact that I am fairly certain these wives were filthy [...]

Everything Butt: The Girls

Kink.com has unveiled its latest website, EverythingButt.com, which each Tuesday and Saturday – you could say they’re anal about it – will feature new stills and video clips concerning Affairs of the Ass. It always makes me happy and a little wistful when I see pictures of Close Personal Friends having fun, so imagine my [...]

Noname Jane: The cross and the pentagram

It was a pleasure seeing Noname Jane at Erotica L.A. this weekend. I didn’t notice at the time that she was wearing a pentagram, but that might have been the way Satan wanted it. I first met Noname Jane under a different name (I was then known as Ronnie James Dio) in 2006 at the [...]

Gender confusion in our hospitals, families

Used to be everyone wanted an iPhone; now everyone wants a cock. But it troubles me when I see porn titles like My Nurse Has A Cock. It implies that nurses can only be female, thus the shock value of seeing a cock on one, when in fact the AMA has stated repeatedly that patients [...]

Porn stars stay connected – but at what cost?

One of the most interesting panels at the XBiz Conference this week found porn performers discussing the evolution of the term “porn star” and the things performers needed to do to stay connected, famous, and relevant. I’ll provide a breakdown shortly, but something that happened during this particular panel demonstrated how the porn world responds [...]

2008 in Review: Workplace of the Year

Kink.com Larry Flynt makes his employees pay for parking. Digital Playground has never washed the Tera couch. If you work at Vivid, you have to make awkward, shoe-gazing conversation with Eon McKai by the lunch truck. GawkerMedia did away with its bonus program so I’m not getting a Gizmodo-branded hoodie for writing Fleshbot’s most-read story [...]

Today in Bitches: Now they’re pissed off and Japanese

I have never, ever seen a Japanese woman I would describe as a bitch. The closest I’ve come is when a Korean woman backed into my car and was profusely sorry about it. But then it was the situation that was a bitch and not the Korean woman. And would Korean women, often used as [...]

When tryptophan requires trip to can

Like you, I grew tired of my bloated aunts and uncles and high school friends after about three hours yesterday. So I looked around for a good family movie and, since Madagascar 2 and Quantum of Solace were sold out, I chose Slave 01 instead. “It must be this year’s The Color Purple,” I thought. [...]

Slave 01

We are filled with unease. Master Eric wakes at 8 a.m. in his [...]

Madison Young turns your guilty masturbation into art

You might think of Madison Young as a deadly serious redheaded San Francisco porn performer/director with an agenda. But she is actually from Loveland, Ohio. I pinned her down recently and asked her to submit to the patriarchal structure that is the western white male interview. But I learned something about myself as well.Gram Ponante: [...]
