Orlando Ranked Porn Capital Of America, Miami Ranks Twelfth

Which is the smuttiest city in America? Is it bondage-friendly San Francisco? Las Vegas with its nearby legal Bunny Ranch brothel? Los Angeles for its “San Pornando” Valley? Nope, the porn-iest city in the U.S. is also tops on most kids’ must-see locales — Orlando, Fla. Home of Disney World, Orlando ranked in first place when Men’s Health looked at which local populations enjoyed the most adult entertainment. The magazine compiled stats on the amount of porn DVDs purchased, rented or streamed; number of adult entertainment stores; porn searches on Google; and Cinemax-subscribing households to rank 100 U.S. cities from “Love to Look: to “Avert Their Eyes.” And Orlando wasn’t the only Sunshine State destination to enjoy a high smutty ranking. Nearby Tampa came in at number eight and notoriously salacious Miami fell just outside of the top ten at number 12. If this were a study in simple porn activity — Miami would no doubt hover near the top of the charts. The Magic City has been slowly pushing out Los Angeles as ground zero for porn production. “Amateur” companies like Bang Bros and Reality Kings call the 305 home and adult films are even filmed on public land […]

Female Adult Film Producers Talk Porn for Women

Last month, I wrote a story lamenting the sorry lack of quality porn for women. I am now here to tell you… I was wrong. Very wrong. Shamefully wrong. And I’m not too proud to admit it. Within days of the post going up, I was inundated with emails and tweets gently telling me just how wrong I was, and from those who know best: women in the trenches of the adult film industry, working tirelessly to create good porn for other women like me. And just like that, my frustrated lament became an earnest education. In the mail, I received–much to the amusement of my partner–a box of porn DVDs. They were sent by Jacky St. James, one of those women on the frontlines of female-oriented adult film production. I immediately curled up on the couch to watch a rom-com sex romp called The Friend Zone. And, well… it was good. Like, really good. It had legitimate production values. The acting ranged from just fine to truly impressive. The script was funnier than most mainstream rom-coms in theaters today (Hollywood producers, take note). And… what’s this? Is that a sex scene involving people who actually seem to care about […]

History made with first ever plus sized Penthouse cover model

Kelly Shibari, a big, beautiful woman, adult film actress, and sexual educator for gals of every size has the honor of being featured on Penthouse in all her rock and roll glory proving once and for all that beauty comes in all shapes, sizes, and ethnicities. The June issue hit the stands today everywhere Penthouse products are sold (Barns and Noble, 7-Eleven, etc). Yes, you read that correctly. The June issue is out at the end of April. Go figure! And it’s about time adult magazines give readers more than just the expected cookie-cutter centerfolds! I mean, who wants to stick to just one flavor ad nauseum when there are so many tasty choices to choose from? Even the cover is a departure from the usual boudoir chic showing Shibari looking as if she’s about to blow the roof off an arena at her own concert. “It’s not the picture I would’ve picked” laughs Shibari. “Penthouse – everyone is usually scantily clad – very much in lingerie, you know what I mean, bikinis and such, and the managing editor, Eric (Danville) was like ‘I want THAT photo to be on the cover’, and I was like, “Okay”. The photo is […]
