Houston, We Have Female-Friendly Porn

When I read this, I got all atwitter. Er, um, I mean my evil twin did. I've never watched a dirty movie because I'm just a little girl, but my evil twin has watched them a time or two and she's always been a little disappointed by all the closeup female crotch shots and too-long boob sequences. And come on... What kind of girl is really enthusiastic about doing THAT.

...an organized event by the National Organization of Women for Women
at NYU on the evolution of the women’s porn industry.

Held at NYU last night, the speakers were Candida Royalle, the president
of Femme Productions Inc., and Jayme Waxman, a Playgirl columnist and
freelance pornographer who are trying to bring their feminist ideology
into recent porn projects. “I wanted to give the genre a woman’s voice,”
said Royalle. “It didn’t have to be something you would look at and feel
dirty about.”

The event included screenings of some of Royalle's flicks, which featured
more realistic-looking women and more sophisticated plotlines that
appealed to female sexuality. Some of the films like “One Size Fits All”
and “Studhunters” include a comedic tone that parodies the over-the-top
cheesiness that typical porn flicks tend to have.

One small step for my evil twin, one giant step for woman-kind. Yay!
