Great article, Japhet!
I remember speaking to a friend right after I attended last year's awards and he said he'd been berated by a female co-worker after he admitted he enjoyed turning on the TV and watching porn. She went on about how all porn is disgusting, degrades women, how anyone involved or who watches it is disgusting, etc. Hopefully, the FPA will open up that attitude. 

I don't know if I can say I really dabbled in the porn industry - I was a camgirl for a well-known company for about a year. But for many virtual co-workers and myself, it was in a way, about feminism. Expressing ourselves sexually - we were in control on how much skin we wanted to show. And it did feel pretty liberating in the end.]]>

As we all know, two things cannot be important or newsworthy at the same time. ]]>

@bb

Then why not the fuck to be you stepping up and writing said missives, please and thank you?  Fact of the matter is, the issues surrounding sexuality - getting, having, exerting, taking, receiving - are very much at the center of our psychological life, and the attitude we have towards sex both inform and illuminate the core reasons as to why the world is as fucked up as it is.  Lighten up - go take a roman shower.

AS for you, greasy little Jay-muffin, your journalistic stylings be improving by leaps and bounds.  Reading this article made my brain feel like Buck Angel's pussy after a good fisting.]]>

@Elliot

I am talking about the representation of a variety of types and their pleasure. The narrative and any artistic sensibilities have very little to do with why I think feminist porn is important.

Do you watch porn?]]>

I don't quite understand what your expectation is. 

Should I modify my headline to reflect the crisis of the moment? Maybe I should hold off on posting until the afternoon because that's the time for "soft news"?]]>

I disagree with the creation and production of porn and I also disagree with this article. All that is being said is here are some Pornographic films, but with substance... Ok. It's still the samething, it's just not catering to the typical audience. It's still porn, it's there to gain interest and excitement. Two or three or four individulas having sex on camera not matter how "artistic" it is, it is still just porn.

So is this important, to me "No."]]>

You need to lighten up a bit Japhet. Taking personal strikes at readers, and making ridiculous assumptions about how i felt about 911 is out of place.

I wasn't saying that you should be writing about the ttc. All i was doing was pointing out how the title of your article was a bit ridiculous as the first headline this morning given all the other headlines in the city yesterday:

Economy crisis - 2 years of pain
Fuel prices to soar to $2.50
Food prices begin steep rise
TTC strikes without notice
Why Feminist Porn is Important

feminist porn, normal porn.. plus size lover porn,
midget porn, disabled persons porn.. what ever.
write about it.

its what your interested in writing about,
and if your interesting in writing it..
theres Bound ( <--hehehhe "bound") to be people
interested in reading it.

so some people can't get around on ttc..
the world still continues,
the sky isn't falling
and while some people have no where to go, or no 
way to get there.. 
they may as well read something new and interesting.

Write On ! :)
James.

I like how the first picture is sponsored by the TTC - a representation of the people getting fucked in the ass.

As for feminist porn, not my kind of action. But I'm sure it's important ~snicker~.]]>

You must be one of those people who thought comedy had no place in our society following 9-11.

Or maybe I should be writing about the latest news on the situation with our transit? Oh, wait, we have people who do that and this is a (mostly) weekly column about sex.

I'm sorry I'm so terribly superficial.]]>
