And we are BACK with Recap number three of my trip to Toronto for the 7th Annual Feminist Porn Awards. This time we are ready to actually get to the action of the awards gala, and we hope you are ready too, because this is going to be a media heavy event. I’m talking LOTS of pictures and videos crammed into this porn award extravaganza of a post. So, if you’ve put your helmet on and packed your lunch, let’s get to it.
Just to get a feel for how crowded the standing-room-only event was, here is a shot of the crowd before the awards started. All those empty seats were filled and then some! Plus a balcony. Yeah, it was awesome.
The awards kicked off with a fantastic dance troupe Ill Na Na doing a stellar performance.
I don’t even know how to explain it, other than amazingness. I mean, look at that action shot! Love it!
The host Elvira Kurt took the stage to welcome us and introduce the first presenter, the fabulous Tristan Taormino! There were so many awards to give that the gala that many of the presenters did double duty, doling out two awards. Tristan started the party off announcing the award for Hottest Lesbian Vignette, which went toJincey Lumpkin for her film Boutique. Next up she announced the Sexiest Short movie, which was taken by Toronto local N. Maxwell Lander’s super hot flick, Emile, a beautiful movie of her girlfriend getting herself off and smoking cigarettes. Really, really hot.
Check out N. Maxwell Lander accepting her butt plug and her girlfriend clapping off to the right (behind the ASL interpreter). Congrats to you both!
Next jury members (the ones that chose the winners) Skye Blue and Joseph Pauls took the stage to announce Steamiest Straight Movie winner,The Female VoyerbyPetra Joy (who was unfortunately not at the awards), and the Most Deliciously Diverse Cast winner, FUCKSTYLES (of the queer and famous) by Courtney Trouble and Tina Horn.
Congrats to Courtney, Tina and all the awesome queers involved!
Good For Her owner Carlyle Jensen and Professor Sheila Cavanagh (also on the jury) headed on stage next to present Most Arousing Adaptation and Smutty School Teacher Award For Sex Education, which went respectively to Nica Noelle’s Last Tango (wasn’t there to accept the award) and Tristan Taormino’s The Expert Guide To Advanced Anal Sex. I was lucky enough to catch Tristan accepting this awesome award for the second year in a row! Woohoo sex education!!
Next on stage we got a special treat with a performance by the amazing Olive-or-Oliver, a transgender burlesque circus-y performer with a special attraction to all things shiny and glittery. It was awesome!
After the sparkly Olive-or-Oliver left the stage, FPA organizers Carla Henderson and Lorraine Hewitt came up and gave nod to four amazing Honorable Mentions, including Seminal by Bren Ryder, TressPass by Bianca Stone and Ned Mayhem, Brunch BunchbyIan Sparks(Woohoo!) and Switch: Hometown Hottiesby Carrie Grey. I haven’t seen all of these movies, but from the clips, holy hell do I need to!
Then we took a little intermission break to stretch our leggies and ring out our soaking panties… And we are back!
Allyson Mitchell & Eden Baylee headed to the stage to present the honored websites of the night. I’ll admit I have no recollection of who these two women were (sorry!), but the winners of the website honors went to CrashPadSeries.com (Shine Louise Houston), LilyCade.com (Lily Cade), DaneJones.com, and JizLee.com (Jiz Lee)!!
Lily accepted for her win.
While Jiz went on stage for both their own win, as well as to accept CrashPad’s butt plug as well.
All those sites are seriously deserving of honor and I am so glad they were given plugs!
Before we got to the next award, the audience were privy to a special surprise treat… Buck Angel giving us a super steamy striptease! I’m so happy I got this on film (minus a few seconds because someone needed to move in front of the camera to sit down – seriously people, could you not see I was filming something important?!? Animals!)
Holy crap was it awesome! Who doesn’t love a sexy surprise like that?! Especially the part where he doused himself in lube! Woah!
Fleshbot’s Lux Alptraum hit the lube-filled stage next, presenting Hottest Kink Movie to Julie Simone’s Vicious Strap-On Bitches (no Julie Simone to accept, booo) and Hottest Dyke Film to Hella Brown: Real Sex In The City by Nenna!!! I was super disappointed to not get a good picture or video of her accepting the award, because Neena is seriously awesome. Congrats!!
I know I have the order of the evening a little mixed up, but I will say that CoCo La Creme took to the stage next, where she was looking for some hot stuff, baby, and looking to give us a balloon-filled action.
By the end, all those balloons were popped and we definitely found that hot stuff that CoCo was seeking. Yum, right?
All throughout the evening, co-host Ryan G. Hinds would pop up on the big screen and do interviews with performers and directors. He met up for a super cute rendezvous with Jiz Lee and I just had to share the video.
Seriously sexy Cliks front man Lucas Silveira headed to the podium to present Orgasmic Original Concept to the amazing Cheryl Dunye for her film Mommy Is Coming (which I cannot wait to watch in entirety!!) and Most Tantalizing Trans Film to the man of the hour (how could he not be with that strip tease?), Buck Angel for Sexing The Transman XXX!
Congrats to Buck – as well as James Darling, who was in the movie, and Lucas Silveira, who was in the non-XXX version.
Next up 2011 Heartthrob of the YearDrew DeVeaux took the stage to pass her crown to the this year’s winner… James Darling!!!
Woohoo! Congrats James Darling! That role is so fitting.
Ill Na Na returned to the stage for another amazing performance before the Good For Her folks came up to thank the organizers, volunteer and everyone involved in the production of the awards weekend. And then it was time for Movie Of The Year.
Yep, that’s when your friendly neighborhood porn blogger took to the stage to present.
Thanks to my party buddy Jess for taking pictures while I was doing my thing. I don’t love being up on stage in front of tons of folks, so I said my thing and announced the Movie Of The Year - Cabaret Desire by Erika Lust!!!
Major congrats to Erika Lust for this totally deserved win!! And with that, the awards gala transformed into a rockin’ dance party! And I was able to get some exciting pictures of folks with their awards.
Erika Lust – Movie Of The Year!
Erika and N. Maxwell Lander – Sexiest Short.
Dylan Ryan, Nenna (Hottest Dyke Film) and Drew DeVeaux.
I also had the great fortune of slipping into a stall in the bathroom with Dylan Ryan and James Darling to have a little chat after the awards. Gotta love folks who will pack into a bathroom stall with me to do an interview.
After we emerged from the bathroom, I headed over to the photo wall thing to grab a few pictures.
One with Tristan Taormino and Buck Angel.
And one with Buck Angel and myself!
And that, my friends is the end! That you for taking this crazy trip with me! And if you are interested in seeing some real photos from the evening, take a look at the Feminist Porn Award’s facebook, where there are some amazing shots!
Hope you enjoyed the recaps! Thank you Good For Her! We can’t wait til 2013!!
Welcome back for recap two of my whirlwind trip to Toronto for the 7th Annual Feminist Porn Awards! When we left off on Recap 1, we were just getting into Friday, the day of the awards gala. I won’t bore you with the details of my day, which just involved hanging around and getting ready for the evening really.
A few weeks back, the folks who put the awards on asked me if I was interested in getting my hair and makeup done for the show, since I was presenting an award. If you know me at all, you know how excited I was by the prospect of actually looking put together. So, I started off the evening doing that before getting down and dirty into the VIP pre-awards party and the ceremony.
Not bad, if I do say so myself.
Anyway, the pre-awards party was a time where stars and porno folks in town for the FPAs could meet with the press and photographers to chat about their work. Being the high-tech photog that I am, I took my fancy camera (cough, cough, iPhone) and got a few snaps of some of the awesome people getting ready for the awards.
Also up for awards was Lily Cade, who was more than happy to give me both front and back access for photos.
Why, hello nice ass in a well tailored suit. It’s so nice to meet you. I did get a photo of Lily’s beautiful date, performer Ela Darling, but my phone took such washed out pictures with the flash on, that I can’t put those pictures up here in good conscience.
I was happy really that this photo I got of director Erika Lust came out alright, because she is seriously adorable, along with being the sweetest.
I also really love this next picture because it illustrates just how vibrant and fun Erika Lust is, and I’m sure you know how hard it is to capture that in picture form. Iphone did me well here.
Alright, a few more before we get into the actual awards. This is going to be a long post, so I hope you packed some lube, and maybe a snack.
Next up James Darling and Tina Horn posed for my camera and James let me go on about how much I enjoy and appreciate his work.
I also got a chance to grab a picture of Arabelle Raphael and Courtney Trouble before we started toward our seats for the awards to begin.
As the theater began filling up, the main screen above the stage projected the #FPA2012 Twitter feed going on. It was really fun to watch all of the folks that were there, and the folks watching the livefeed of the awards, all talking about what was going on there.
I tweeted a couple of times just to see my tweets up on the screen. What, you know everyone else was doing the exact same thing.
And finally, I grabbed Alison Lee (who used to put the awards together) and Dylan Ryan for a quick picture, just as the awards we about to get underway.
This past weekend, I had the great fortune of returning to Toronto for the 7th Annual Feminist Porn Awards! This awesome ceremony celebrates all the fantastic folks who are working hard to make porn as ethical, diverse and downright sexy as possible. For the last four years, HotMoviesForHer as had the honor of sponsoring the awards and to show our support, I’ve (JD) got the chance to go and help ring in the festivities.
Each year the awards weekend gets more and more exciting, with 2012 beginning on Wednesday, April 18th with Buck Angel’s ‘Sexing The Transman’ workshop (which I’ve been to in Philly twice and is awesome), then moving into Thursday’s Public. Provocative. Porn: The Year’s Best In Feminist Film screening and panel, Friday’s 7th Annual Feminist Porn Awards Gala, Saturday’s ‘Making Your Open Relationship Work’ with Tristan Taormino and Sunday’s “Dirty Talk” with Tina Horn. Plus Drew DeVeaux dance party on Thursday night and play party on Saturday night, hosted by Aslan Leather. Holy hot weekend, right? I’m getting warm under the collar just thinking about it all.
On Thursday morning I got up bright and early at 4:30 am, got a ride to the airport from one of my dear friends (seriously, Kira, you are a mensch!) and hoped an early flight into Toronto, where I dropped by bags at the hotel and met up with the lovely Alison Lee (the fabulous woman who previously put the awards together) for lunch and a date in the park. Afterwards I was able to check into my room, get ready and head out to meet up with fantastic feminist director Erika Lust for an interview (which will be up on the site asap!).
Getting a chance to sit down with Erika Lust was one of my porn blogger dreams. Not only is she extremely smart and passionate about the work she does, she is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met. Seriously awesome. I won’t go into all the stuff we talked about, because it’s a long interview and will be up on the site shortly. I’ll just say that the whole experience was all I ever could have hoped for and I can’t wait to put the video up!
After our interview, Erika, her partner, Pablo, and I met up with Buck and Elayne Angel and Nenna (the amazing director of Tight Places: A Drop Of Color) to go over to Good For Her (the fabulous shop that puts the FPAs on) for a pre-screening/panel party for all the porn folks in town. There I got to meet Carla who put together the awards this year and a whole bunch of other fun folks from Good For Her. I also had the chance to meet a few other porn people that I haven’t meet before, including Lily Cade, Ela Darling (who is, in fact, darling), Arabelle Raphael and James Darling (swoon). And I got to see a few old favorites, like Courtney Trouble, Tristan Taorminoand Jiz Lee.
While we were at the party, I pulled a few folks downstairs to chat and interview with my little flip cam. First up was Lily Cade, who was at the awards with a few nominated films and a nom for her website, www.lilycade.com.
Sorry about the shaky videos – I am far from a photographer or videographer. Next year maybe I should invest in a tripod…
Courtney Trouble, Nenna, Arabelle Raphael
I also got to spend a little interview love with Courtney Trouble and Nenna, both who shared about the awesome new projects they had up for awards. Take a look!
Nenna
Courtney Trouble
After the gathering, we all walked over to the theater for Public. Provocative. Porn: The Year’s Best In Feminist Film screening and panel, where Nenna, Erika Lust, N. Maxwell Lander and Buck Angel all showed snippets of their nominated works, as well as took the stage for a little Q & A.
Left to right: Moderator CoCo La Crème, Erika Lust, N. Maxwell Lander, Nenna, and Buck Angel.
Each movie was hotter than than the next and I was able to get a little footage of some of the folks doing their own intros.
Erika Lust
And Buck Angel
And a little clip of the panel action. Again, clearly I am not a videographer.
Anyway, It was a fantastic evening that ended with a dance party hosted by 2011 Feminist Porn Heartthrob of the Year Drew DeVeaux. What a lovely welcome to the 2012 awards!
Keep a look out for Recap 2 – the actual awards gala!
The 2012 Feminist Porn Awards are coming at us fast! In only two days I will be heading to the Great White North to help celebrate some of the hottest dirty movies of the past year. Pretty exciting, huh? And not only that – I have the honor of presenting the Movie Of The Year Award again this year, which thrills me and makes me full of stage fright at the very same time. Anyway, to help usher in the 2012 FPAs, take a look at our top five picks from this year’s list of noms!
Tristan Taormino’s Expert Guide To Advanced Anal Sex – I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Tristan Taormino is fucking amazing when it comes to giving concise, easy-to-use, sexy education (I’m a sex educator – I know these things.) As an expert on all things anal, Tristan brings her skills to the screen and gives us all the goods on getting it on butt-style in more advanced ways. She really is the one person I would trust my ass with above anyone else.
Cabaret Desire- Erika Lust always offer up seriously amazing movies that are perfect for women, men and whoever else is into erotic delights! This latest masterpiece has sensual readings and steamiest sex come together at a magical, bohemian place called the Cabaret Desire. Mmm, even the name makes us a little warm under the collar. Definitely spend some time at this delicious destination!
Buck Angel’s Sexing The Transman XXX - This collection of interviews and masturbation scenes featuring four different transmen offers up the delicious variations of the transmasculine experience. Each dude gets a chance to talk a little bit about how and who he likes to have sex with, and how his sexuality has changed since starting hormones, all before stripping down and getting it on solo! While all of it is super exciting and hot, it’s also so important for other transguys to see people like them enjoying their sexuality. Never underestimate the empowerment of recognition and the indirect permission that comes along with it. This movie gave me a boner, both in my pants and in my brain – my favorite kind.
The Female Voyeur – Dished up in three vignettes, this movie focuses on just how visually-charged women can be, and how much they like watching sexy exchanges. Each piece is extra sultry and features a collection of beautiful performers that exude obvious chemistry – in both pairs and during group sex! Yum! Along with all this delicious content, the actual quality is super high end as well, with elegant sets and post-production galore. There is definitely something to be said for the trend of amazing quality in erotic, sex-positive porno. Don’t think we didn’t notice, Petra Joy!
Brunch Bunch: Queerly SF (Disc 1) -Brunch Bunch is full of trans-identified folks with a whole bunch of different bodies, playing together and experience pleasure in a ton of various ways. It’s always awesome to see folks get off in the ways that work best for them, as well as important for other people to see that there is no one way to use your body, no matter how you experience your body. While this may not have been made with a teachable moment in mind, this sexy educator just brought it there. If hot queer action is your thing, you’ve just hit the mother load.
Good luck to all the noms!! I can’t wait til the awards!
You know you live a charmed life when you can take work home for the weekend and really not be bummed about it at all. I’m not trying to brag or anything, but I can’t say I was too upset about getting a chance to hang out with Buck Angel this weekend. Tough work, but someone has to do it, right? Anyway, that’s right, I was lucky enough to spend some time with the trans porn pioneer a few times this weekend, including going to his “Sexing The Transman” workshop on Friday (for the second time – it was that good), having a little brunch on Sunday (where my hot trans partner happens to cook delicious food) and spending some time hanging out while Buck shot footage for the second volume of “Sexing the Transman XXX.”
(Buck and JD, from last year when he was in Philly)
Before I even got a chance to sit down with Buck and chat for a bit, I was able to nab some time with Rude Bwoy, Buck’s newest star and subject (as well as one of my friends and fellow Philly queers). Rude Bwoy was nice enough to hang with me for a minute and talk about his first experience in front of the porno camera.
How cute is he, right? Totally adorable… and definitely one to look out for when the movie comes out. When I did the interview I didn’t realize that Rude Bwoy hadn’t actually shot his masturbation scene yet (oops, since I asked all these questions assuming that it had already happened!), but it ended up that he was about to jerk off when I stopped by, so we did the interview first. But all’s well that ends well because it ended up that Rude Bwoy wanted a little extra dirty visuals, so I pulled up the mobile HotMoviesForHer on my phone and was able to provide a little porno action. Yes, I know that it totally sounds like I am a commercial for HM4Her, but really, it happened and I was so excited to play with the mobile site (because really, how much porn can one reviewer watch?).
After hanging out with Rude Bwoy, Buck went to go shoot his jerk off scene and I hung out with the fabulous photographer, Rude Bwoy’s friend, and a lovely gentleman that turns out to be the SoloSuck.com Video guy (which is hella impressive!). Once Buck was done – or should I say, when Rude Bwoy was done, we sat down for a few to chat about the projects he has been working on.
It’s always such a pleasure to hang out with Buck Angel. I’m thrilled that I got a chance to spend some time with him this time around while he was in Philly. We are actually both off to Toronto later this week for the Feminist Porn Awards, so hopefully I’ll actually remember to take a picture with him!
It’s that time of year again! The Feminist Porn Awards are right around the corner and this year’s nominees have just been announced.
What? You say you’ve never heard of the Feminist Porn Awards?! Well, sit down and let me school you before we bust out the noms. The Feminist Porn Awards (or FPAs) is an annual event that showcases the best of the best in porn made for and by forward-thinking feminist folks of all genders (though the movies have to have a woman’s hand in the production, writing, directing, etc.). The FPAs are the do all and say all when it comes to porn created specifically with women in mind.HotMoviesforHer is so thrilled to be sponsoring the awards again this year! We are literally counting the days to the ceremony! That’s right, I will be at the awards in Toronto, April 19th & 20th, representing HM4Her!
Alright, without further adieu, your 2012 nominees!!
Happy Humpday. Welcome back to the midweek stretch. It’s the first Wednesday in March, which hopefully means that warmer weather is on its way. Fingers crossed, but until then, we’ve got the Humpday celebration to keep us feeling nice and toasty. Let’s Link Love it up!
Yes, it is possible that you’ve read this review before. J.D. wrote is back in September, but since this movie is nominated for Best Transsexual Release I wanted to repost it. Buck Angel is a good friend of ours and I wanted to show him some love. During my very first week here at HotMoviesForHer I was lucky enough to tag along for an interview. J.D. did the talking, I just held the camera and sat there being star struck. Still, it was a great experience – both educational and just effing awesome. The review is posted below, but you should also check out the interview that I’m talking about. Enjoy! Love, Ginger xoxoxo
When folks think of Buck Angel, I’m sure their first thoughts go to porn star – the man with a pussy. Me? My mind goes straight to educator and activist. Sure, I’ve seen Buck Angel in just about every sexy position I can imagine, but when I get to the crux of his latest work, it’s all about the education and activist. I’ll admit that this may be directly tied to originally watching the non-porno version of this video during Buck’s workshop of the same name, which I was lucky enough to attend when he made his way to Philly earlier this year, but still, Buck’s overwhelming care in bringing awareness to transgender male sexuality makes him so much more than just a porn star (and filmmaker) in my eyes.
Buck Angel’s Sexing The Transman XXX is a collection of interviews and masturbation scenes featuring four different transmen (as well as one last scene that stars Buck and Fallen fucking, sans interview). Each dude talks a little bit about how and who he likes to have sex with, and how his sexuality has changed since starting hormones (T, or Testosterone). During the interviews, Buck also touches on language – what these guys like their genitals called – and gets a little bit of history around their transition and identity, all before having them strip down and get to jerkin’!
I really enjoyed watching all the different ways that each performer got off, as well as the variety in their bits. I think it’s so exciting when folks can talk about all the ways they like to be stimulated, especially if they have already been pigeon-holed by society (such as people assuming that just because a transdude doesn’t identify as a woman the he doesn’t want to be penetrated “vaginally”). It’s also so important for other transguys to see people like them enjoying their sexuality. Never underestimate the empowerment of recognition and the indirect permission that comes along with it. Also, it’s fucking hot watching these four dudes get off. A boner both in my pants and in my brain – my favorite kind.
The one thing that made me a little sad about this documentary is that it only featured transmen that are taking hormones and have had chest surgery. There are so many varied transmasculine experiences that it seems a shame to focus only on guys that fit into this specific category. I assume that Buck Angel made that decision for a reason, so I’m not going to get all frustrated about it, but I definitely wanted to note that these are only the experiences that fit into those boxes.
If you are hot for transmen, curious about the intersections of testosterone and sexually, or both… or just really like watching hot people get off, this is a fabulous addition to the Buck Angel Entertainment library! Thanks Buck!
Well, it’s that time again – the end of the year. Can you believe 2011 is already coming to a close? It’s been a bust last twelves months here at HM4Her, with lots of changes, including a farewell from The Porn Librarian and welcoming Ginger Leigh into the fold. We’ve also reviewed a ton of movies and toys this year, as well as juggling all the fun of traveling for work and managing the craziness of our own personal lives. So to do it up right, here is a very special round up, featuring the top five movies we’ve each reviewed this year, along with our top five toys/life/whatever picks. Let’s get to it!
First up is Ginger Leigh!
Top Five Movies:
Bobbi’s World- I am so feeling Bobbi Starr‘s movies. They are shot from her POV and from the outside of the action. I’d say she took a page out of Belladonna’s book, but absolutely brings her own brand of hotness. Plus, the scene starring Bobbi and Kim Kane make me wish I was a curling iron. Just sayin’.
The Return Of The Post Apocalyptic Cowgirls – This was one of those pornos that I watched with my jaw gently resting on my keyboard. It is seriously hot all the way around. Director Maria Beatty is at the top of my list when it comes to superb feminist smut. I love it. All of it. The chemistry between performers in this movie is out of this world and I’m so very thankful that it exists.
Belladonna: Manhandled 4 – Belladonna can do no wrong. Any of her movies could easily fit into this list. I think what makes this one so special is the opening scene with Bella herself and Ramone Nomar. He roughs her up right and the sound of his voice totally makes me swoon. Or perhaps it’s that dark hallway scene starring James Deen. Orrr maybe it’s the way Mr. Pete mixes merciless slaps with sweet kisses. Or maybe it’s…
No Fauxxx: Jiz Lee – I believe quoting the last paragraph of my review will suffice here. “Director Courtney Trouble reigns supreme when it comes to queer porn and giving the big middle finger to gender rules and boundaries. If this sounds like your kind of jam, you should watch No Fauxxx: Jiz Lee. It’s Jiz fucking Lee masturbating in a public restroom. What the hell else do you want?”
Working for HotMoviesForHer – I started writing for HotMoviesForHer in February of 2011. It has been one of the best work experiences ever. I love working for a sex positive porn site for women. I get to spread the good word on porno to women everywhere, but on personal level I find it pretty damn empowering. Also, I get to work with J.D. everyday. I’m really lucky to have such an amazing co-worker and friend.
The RodeoH – Hands down, the most comfortable harness I have ever slipped over my cheeks! The RodeoH is a brief that also acts as a strap-on harness. It looks sexy and feels great on. Excluding super heavy dildos, it is top notch in function.
Danny Wylde’s Bieber Funded Wishlist: It is no secret that I am a big fan of Danny Wylde. Earlier this year, I stumbled across his Bieber Wish List on his blog. Long story short, if you purchased an item for him on his Amazon Wish List you got a video of Danny dressed as Justin Bieber, singing and jacking off. Sold! He was super nice and the video was hysterical… and hot. His blog isn’t all about pop stars and masturbation. He has some great incite on the industry and life in general. You should check it out.
Burlesque- No, not the Christina Aguilara/ Cher movie… ick. I’m talking about performing. While performing is always one of the biggest loves in my life, this year (for reasons i’m not going to get into) I realized just how much I love it and how very alive I am when I am on stage. It has been a great year for the show as a whole, but personally I have grown and it feels pretty damn good.
The Mayer Hawthorne Concert- Life. Changing. Show. Mayer’s concert rocked my soul the core. He sounded even better live than recorded AND I got to meet him after the show! He was a super nice dude and I will never ever forget it. This was definitely one of the biggest highlights of my year.
Next Up is J.D. Bauchery!
Top Five Movies:
Artcore – Not only does director Carlos Batts offer up the amazing hotness that is a Courtney Trouble / Kelly Shibari / April Flores (his wife!) masturbation three-way, we also get April and Drew Deveaux bangin’ a little while later. Seriously, does the man sneak into my fantasies and bring them to the porno screen? Because I can’t think of combos I’d like to watch more.
The Female Voyeur – I was looking forward to this Petra Joy movie since I had heard about it, which was way before we got it on the site. Joy’s amazing feminist porn always offers up deliciously strong, sexually charged ladies in her flicks and this newest movie does not disappoint.
Belladonna’s Spontaneass (Disc 1):She really did try to stay away, but alas, you invite people to come do a blowjob movie, and you are Belladonna, you WILL get involved. This amazing orgy movie is called Spontaneass because that’s just what it was, a totally spontaneous fuckfest that spawned out of Bella filming an innocent blowjob movie while on hiatus from porno. Thank Goodness that she couldn’t help herself because this is one of the HOTTEST movies of the year. Trust me.
Tristan Taormino’s Expert Guide To Female Orgasms-Tristan Taormino can do no wrong in my mind. Seriously, this woman is the epitome of sexy sex educator, bringing the knowledge of instructional porn into the heat of super hot high quality porn. There aren’t too many directors I would trust with truly representing female orgasms, but Tristan gets my two thumbs up. Not to mention performers Dylan Ryan, Jiz Lee, Adrianna Nicole, James Deen, Madison Young are more.
Queer Porn TV: James Darling + Wolf Hudson Part One – Wolf Hudsonand James Darling go at it in a bathtub in one of the queerest romps I’ve ever encountered. What I wrote in the review sums the whole thing up, I think: “James Darling sucks cock like a serious champ. He doesn’t just like it – he LIVES for it. I’ve never seen someone’s eyes roll back in pleasure quite like this; especially as a giver and not a receiver. You can totally tell that Darling is getting off himself as he goes to town on Wolf’s rock hard dick. Truly a treat to watch.” YUM.
Top Five Toys/Life/Whatever:
Jackhammer Jesus – This blasphemously awesome dildo came to me from Divine Interventions to review right as Easter rolled around, making my holiday one to remember. I mean really, who doesn’t love a huge silicone cock with a rendering of Jesus on the cross molded onto it? I know this Jew found it mighty amazing… and so did my pussy.
Meeting My Man – Back in March of this year, I was out at a local queer artist showcase event when I ran into this guy I’ve known for about 10 years as an acquaintance. One thing lead to another and we ended up staying out til 4 in the morning and smooching in the first stirrings of daylight. Fast forward to present, when this amazing man and I just moved in together and are creating a home and family of animal offspring. I am so lucky to have met such an amazing queer fellow who is just as pervy and ridiculous as I am, and I am grateful every day.
Tristan Butt Plug: Anal queen/ sex educator Tristan Taormino developed a signature butt plug for silicone toy makers Vixen Creations. I’m pretty sure there is nothing I would trust more going up my butt.
ScrewSmart – The adult sex education collaborative I co-run with two amazing women is just entering it’s second year, and we could not be happier about the work we’ve been doing. Not only are we offering workshops, but we’ve been performing regularly and even taught and performed up in Canada this year, making us international adventurers!
Meeting and Interviewing Buck Angel- Earlier in the year, I had the great pleasure of meeting and interviewing the fantastic Buck Angel, the man with a pussy. Along with being a pioneer in the trans porn industry, Buck is an educator, activist and all around awesome guy. It was a dream come true!
What do our favorite porn performers think about the industry? Inquiring minds want to know! Well, we asked and they answered! Welcome to our latest editor’s spotlight column, where we ask a bunch of stars the same question and see what kind of awesome answers grace our inbox.
And as we are going overboard with the holiday cheer, this month we asked:
What special holiday traditions are
you looking forward to the most?
“This is the first Christmas w/o my Dad, who died at age 95 1/2 this past January, so we’re looking forward to a large gathering on the 25th. The tradition is for baking Stollen, a German Christmas bread that we have at brunch. We make the dough the night before and let it rise overnight. Then we get up early and bake the loaves, to go along with the rest of the brunch: scrambled eggs w/mushrooms and herbs, fruit cup, hot chocolate and really good coffee. This year we’re expecting at least fifteen people for brunch, perhaps a few more, if a couple of cousins can make it. It’s going to be a very nice day.” – Nina Hartley
“Every Holiday season I enjoy ‘Peacock Lane’, which is a tour of house that have gone all out for the holiday season with decorations and lights. Plus every Christmas Eve, my chosen family and I get all dolled in an evening gown, enjoy an elegant dinner, and go to ‘The Nutcracker’. We end the night with opening one present and having egg nog cocktails or hot toddies.” – Sophia St. James
“Living in San Francisco, our holidays are in the Summer (Pride and Folsom Street Fair). A recent midwinter tradition, and it’s Santa focused, is going to Marlena’s bar in Hayes Valley, near Civic Center in SF. Marlena is one of the, how do you say this politely… senior Drag Queen’s in the area. She decorates the bar in December with countless Santa dolls and ornaments. And by countless, I mean it. The bar tender last week said they added 300 more this year and I have no idea where they can put more. But it always gets me in the Christmas spirit.” - Ian Sparks
“The annual Angel’s Christmas party for the kids in my pueblo in Mexico! This year we have 80 kids coming to the party. It makes me so happy to be able to give them something to remember every year. I am a very fortunate person and to be able to share and see the joy, well I cannot put in words. This year we have Santa, a clown and an elf. Happy Holidays to everyone and I hope the New Year brings you amazing happiness.” – Buck Angel
“Playing the Beatles Monopoly Game with some of my family. Instead of money, the banker deals Love; instead of properties, there are concerts; and the playing pieces are things like Maxwell’s Silver Hammer. When I play, I am the Walrus, coocoo ca choo!” – Jiz Lee
“Sweet potato curry latkes, Channukah stockings (filled by Channukah Goblins), decorating our holiday shrubbery and seeing a new movie on Christmas day while everyone else is opening presents!” - Shanna Katz
“The tradition I’m looking forward to most is simple: time set aside to visit my family. I can’t make any excuses because no one shoots porn on Christmas. I miss my family and really just want to spend some time with them.” – Danny Wylde
“I look forward to enjoying a quiet, reflective solstice and spending time with my family over Christmas.” – Tobi Hill-Meyer
“The special holiday traditions are I am looking forward to the most are spending time with my family, decorating, and most of all giving gifts. I try to be a thoughtful gift giver, and my favorite part of gift giving is watching the recipient open it. I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season and amazing 2012.” – April Flores
“Being with super fun cousins – lots of them! – for a couple of days…lots of laughter, great food, and all around silliness. What a great departure from all the stuff we have to deal with in our regular work-a-day lives!” – Candida Royalle
And to bring it home:
“My partner and I just moved in together and we are excited to create a whole new set of holiday traditions just for us, including the most important of all – Christmas Sex, complete with x-mas slow jams and themed outfits. Oh yeah, we are keeping the birth of Christ classy!” – JD
“Since moving to Philadelphia from Florida, my boyfriend and I have started the tradition of spending Christmas day in our pajamas. While we love and miss our families, spending Christmas day in the comfiest way possible is awesome! We take it slow, make lots of food and just enjoy each other all day long. Best tradition EVER!” – Ginger
