View Trade - Free Fantasy Football. Images or words, men and women. Is gay porn the new indie film? Now that free tube sites like PornHub and RedTube have become synonymous with Internet smut, the porn industry has been scrambling to find ways to get people to actually start paying for porn. Some are offering their content online for free, in the hopes of eventually attracting paid subscribers. Others are dabbling in other sectors of the industry, such as camming or custom clips. Porn website Naked Sword, which touts itself as “the HBO of gay porn,” is doing a combination of the two.
With their latest project, In Their Room: Berlin (NSFW), they’re crossing over into the mainstream indie film industry—and they’re streaming the film in full for free on their website. Directed by Travis Mathews, who co-directed James Franco’s infamous “gay porn” film Interior. Adult film studios dabbling in the independent film industry is “not common at all, but maybe it should be,” says Naked Sword CEO Tim Valenti. What Do Women Want? - Discovering What Ignites Female Desire. “I feel like a pioneer at the edge of a giant forest,” Chivers said, describing her ambition to understand the workings of women’s arousal and desire.
“There’s a path leading in, but it isn’t much.” She sees herself, she explained, as part of an emerging “critical mass” of female sexologists starting to make their way into those woods. These researchers and clinicians are consumed by the sexual problem posed to one of his female disciples almost a century ago: “The great question that has never been answered and which I have not yet been able to answer, despite my 30 years of research into the feminine soul, is, What does a woman want?” The truth about female desire: It’s base, animalistic and ravenous.
There is a conspiracy theory at the heart of this book.
Even to the most casual observer of human history, it isn’t news that women’s sexuality has been feared, suppressed and lied about. But “What Do Women Want? : Adventures in the Science of Female Desire” by journalist Daniel Bergner uses groundbreaking sex research to show the ways in which our supposedly enlightened society still has female sexuality backward — completely, utterly, profoundly.

What kind of porn turns women on? This article originally appeared on AlterNet.
The never-ending debate about women and pornography has led to many assumptions about female sexual desire. A common perception depicted by the media is that women are turned off by porn that is made for men, by men. Advocates for so-called female-friendly pornography—that is, porn founded on mutual respect where the female subject demonstrates true agency in her sexuality—believe that if there were more emotive-driven, personality-based storylines in porn, more women would watch it. However, surprising research on porn patterns suggests otherwise. Neuroscientists Ogi Ogas and Sai Gaddam, co-authors of the book, A Billion Wicked Thoughts, conducted research on visual pornography in relation to female sexual desire in an attempt to unlock the secret of our sexual habits.

Christine Keeler's nude photograph: still sexy and subversive, 50 years on. An iconic nude has just gone on view at the National Portrait Gallery.
Lewis Morley's photograph of Christine Keeler is included in a display to mark the 50th anniversary of the Profumo affair, the Tory sex scandal that rocked – or perhaps it is fairer to say delighted – 1963 Britain. The display reveals that Morley photographed Keeler as publicity and screen-testing for a film about the events that led to the resignation of John Profumo, secretary of state for war in Harold Macmillan's government.
Pornography is everywhere, and I think it's changing how we feel about sex. The dilemma Why is it only children who we think might want to be protected from pornography?
Do the rest of us have to live in this grossly objectifying and demeaning culture just because some people want access to porn? I find it interesting that objection to sexually explicit material finds a place as a parental issue – but it's much wider than that. I predict that there will be movements not only against pornography but actually against sex – that's the logical conclusion of all this, particularly with an ageing demographic.

Susan Faludi: How Shulamith Firestone Shaped Feminism. When Shulamith Firestone’s body was found late last August, in her studio apartment on the fifth floor of a tenement walkup on East Tenth Street, she had been dead for some days.
She was sixty-seven, and she had battled schizophrenia for decades, surviving on public assistance. There was no food in the apartment, and one theory is that Firestone starved, though no autopsy was conducted, by preference of her Orthodox Jewish family. Amsterdam Burlesque!
