Donna Warner
Rodney Moore writes on RAME: I shot Donna Warner twice. But...... I only shoot ugly girls (per RAME). Therefore, by RAME logic, Donna Warner must be an ugly girl. Why do you want info on an ugly girl? Just curious. Anyway, she came from England to Amercian and did a few scenes here, then went back. She's in Cumm Brothers 19 and one other that I don't remember.
Porners Crave Recognition From Fringes of Cannes
CANNES, France, May 18 (Reuters) - Playing in a porn film may seem like just doing what comes naturally, but international porn stars insist their acting is every bit as professional and demanding as the work highlighted at the Cannes Film Festival.
Porners handed out their own awards Wednesday night.
Actresses ranging from young Eastern Europeans to hoary American veterans arrived at a hotel near Cannes like celebrities turning up for any regular festival bash, albeit clad in fluorescent rubber and cutaway leopardskin. Any lingering illusion of normality was shattered when breasts were suddenly bared or skirts lifted to catcalls from a crowd of drooling young male admirers pressed against steel barricades.
There were golden trophies, red carpets and tearful acceptance speeches -- just like at the official festival from which they are banned -- plus graphic sex scenes relayed on overhead screens to hundreds of champagne-swilling guests.
The erotic genre may not be hot on dialogue, but stars were adamant their job was an art form that took hard work to perfect. ``I challenge any mainstream actor or actress to take off their clothes and have sex in front of people and tell me that's not acting,'' said platinum blond Stacey Valentine, thrilled after scooping the award for best American Actress.
Tera Patrick won the award for Best New American Starlet and Michael Ninn's Ritual won for Best American movie.
Porn film producers sporting uniform dark glasses, which many kept on indoors, said a trend towards subtler scripts had taken hold in recent years.
``The quality of the production is coming up -- it's not just someone coming round and saying I'm the pizza man. We're trying to put stories in,'' said Julian St. Jox, a director at Black Market Video in the U.S.
Organisers of the annual porn awards explained that they aimed to improve the image of an industry they said was worth 25-30 billion francs ($3.4-$4 billion) a year in Europe.
The Hot D'Or porn awards, held at a beachfront hotel in a Cannes suburb, have been banned from central Cannes by the mayor since 1992.
Free Speech Coalition Controversy
Moffitt Timlake writes GeneRoss.com: "Good evening Gene, Just wanted to weigh in on the pithy duel between Mike South and Mark Kernes. While I in no way condone or applaud Mike's tact, I do think the core of his rant is fairly on the mark. What truly substantive results have they (the FSC) produced?
Not counting that dizzyingly triumphant "just say boo to censorship" campaign, mind you. Despite Mark's valiant efforts to defend himself and the FSC, some key questions prevail: do the top executives at the FSC make absurdly high salaries? Why won't they make these salaries public like similar organizations do? Why were there so many defections by top level members such as VCA, VIVID, and Video Team? I appreciate the efforts of people who travel to those "lobbying days" in Sacramento, but I believe that Mike Ross is simply way more effective and produces the tangible results we all need. Ross' ensuing post after the whole South vs Kernes pissfest says it all- while Kernes falls back on the questionable laurels of some of the FSCs "accomplishments" (I believe Frank at IVD and Stagliano at Evil worked unilaterally with their own counsel in their effort to battle piracy, not in conjunction with the FSC), Mike Ross successfully deters an anti-adult cabaret ordinance, creates the Secondary Effects Handbook, and attains official Lobbyist status in D.C.
When faced with Gloria Leonard's elitist and pompous attitude, Kerne's lead-balloon defense of the FSC, and Mike South's antagonism, I think the obvious option is to back Mike Ross- the guy who gets results on a weekly basis.
Mike South writes GeneRoss.com: Mike South writes: "Ok Gene, now that I thoroughly trounced Kernes, who still has not come up with one thing the FSC has done..tell me Gene why does he always specifically DUCK the tax exempt issue? It's plain and simple they do not want the books opened, I know it, you know it, we all know it. Reckon what they are hiding?
Now lest you think that all I am capable of doing is pissing in the pool I would like to point out that in it's early stages I was critical of AIM, but AIM has certainly cleaned up their act. Disassociating themselves from Margold, Getting Tax Exempt status, they have made themselves into an organization that I can respect and support. Kudos go out to Mitch for her tireless efforts, and for talking to me and being honest. Same for Doc York. This organization deserves our support. Personally if I were Mitch I would not be thrilled about being mentioned along with the FSC.
Ok Im back to watching from the sidelines and doing my thing...Oh one last thing...I am going to be speaking with the Governer this weekend, Mark, and believe me the LAST thing on this earth I want is you morons undermining my efforts, and rest assured until you stop robbing the people in this industry I am going to continue to hold your little f---ing feet to the fire. Mike South, http://www.mikesouth.com
P.S.: While my email has been in universal support for my stand against the Free Speech Cabal I have been asked to elaborate on my suggestions. I guess that Kernes and the others don't have what it takes to figure it out so I am going to give them another little shove in the right direction. I suggested they educate and involve the performers, to which Kernes squealed about AIDs awareness and other nonsense that any 4th grader these days knows.
Let me be more specific. The performers are the front line of this business, particularly the high profile performers, they should know what the FSC is doing in terms of sponsoring legislation or repeal thereof and promoting resposibility, and they should be proud and instantly ready to do so.
The FSC should offer to prosecute any illegal piracy of our product free of charge in exchange for 50% or more of the civil judgement. I can and will give them store names addresses and phone numbers that they can begin work on tomorrow. Piracy is rampant in this business and it is too large for any one person to get a handle on. I for one would donate 100% of all such judgements .
The FSC should institute an FSC "Seal of Approval" and any store owner, producer, manufacturer or distributor who is an FSC member gets taken into local, state or federal court on a charge involving a tape bearing this seal will be defended free of charge by the FSC.
The FSC should become Tax Exempt, plain and simple. If the FSC wants lobbyists it should hire outside, registered persons to do so in compliance with the tax exempt status.
The FSC should sponsor legislation beneficial to this industry and sponsor repeal of legislation which is not. Example Sponsor a bill that makes California's child pornography laws the toughest in the nation at the same time rewrite that tangled mess of a sodomy code that California has essentially repealing it and incorporating relevant parts into the child abuse code.
Or maybe just flat out repeal the law against herding more than 2000 sheep down Hollywood Blvd. Who could argue with this? It removes restrictions on consenting adults, tightens child abuse and pornography laws, call it The Millennium Child Protection Act, no legislator would dare vote against that.
Ok there are a few things for you to get off of your lazy asses and actually WORK on. But I can hear them now squealing about how this isnt possible....yadayadayada. What would you all like to bet that the FSC one year from today is no different than the FSC today and one year before today and...... And it took me all of 20 minutes to sit down and jot down these ideas, imagine what great thinkers like Glorioski and Kernes should be able to come up with.
Oh yes one more thing...I was an FSC Member in July 1997 I know this for fact your books, if you actually keep them, will also bear me out. You should know what is coming Mark...I am FORMALLY requesting that the FSC open it's books to me and or my authorized agent for fiscal 1997, I want to see where my money went.
Email: My name is Marc and i live in Texas. For the last couple of years i have been toying with the idea of getting into the adult business as an actor but now i'm not sure i would want to cause after reading an article online of yours about Gina Ryder and a conversation you had with a FEMALEXXX it makes me think that getting into it and having to put up with all that political bulls--- is not worth it. Say it ain't so about Ms. Ryder cause i met her in person signing autographs this past Saturday at a nearby video store and she to me is one of the nicest, friendliest, and most attractive women i have ever met and i can't believe that she would be such an underhanded person like you describe. I would like to know cause i'm a fan of hers and i don't think that such a nice person as her should have to go through this kinda of crap. Hope to hear back from you Mr. Ford!!!!
Luke: I think Gina is a lovely person and I feel terrible for the hell I've put her through.
Marc: i hope you aplogized to her cause she like i said is one of the sweetest and most beautiful people i have ever met and she did not deserve that kind of s--- that was dealt to her know one does. She is just such a sweetie pie and i can't see how anyone would want to degrade her or harm her like that. To the one's that did that you ought to be ashamed of yourselves. I think by now sir because of what i read how Gina was put through the rumor mill so bad and what i read about how Brooke Ashley after being found HIV positive was treated so poorly that's very upsetting and i think that maybe it's just not for me at least not as a actor/performer.
Ex-Kennedy Aide Convicted For Child Porn
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) - A former aide to Eunice Kennedy Shriver was convicted Wednesday of distributing child pornography over the Internet and traveling to Utah to have sex with a 12-year-old girl.
Frank: Luke: I saw [porn actress] Angela Sanders on Good Morning America Tuesday. She was plugging a Columbine Lawsuit. No mention of her past "acting" was made.
Kianna vs Earl
Fred Flinstone, learned Jew lawyer, writes: 1. It was pretty interesting reading about the dispute between Kianna and Earl. Luke, you are becoming the Jerry Springer of the Internet Porn world. This is great. Who do you think is the real screw-up in this drama--Kianna or Earl?
Luke: I am friendly with both of them, though closer to Kianna, who's become a good buddy over the past nine months.
2. I was all set to disagree with NJG about whether working class families were more dysfunctional than upper class families. Then I decided that she might have a point.
According to the Bell Curve, wealth correlates strongly with IQ, and dysfunction inversely correlates strongly with IQ. So NJG is probably right. I would only throw in a caveat that certainly the working and lower classes do not have a monopoly on dysfunction, but they probably have more than their fair share.
Upper class families probably prevalently have different forms of dysfunction--e.g. the kind of dysfunction when you have people who always get what they want, and aren't used to hearing the word "no". (Unfortunately, I have not yet had the opportunity to suffer from such forms of dysfunction.) For example, I understand that anorexia nervosa afflicts rich people more than poor, and white people more than black. Of course, my own belief is that all families have some form of dysfunction in one way or another. There are no "Leave it to Beaver" families in the real world.
In any event, it would make a pretty good sociology dissertation to try to correlate different kinds of disfunction with family income and class.
The Bell Curve suggests that dysfunction in the lower classes would be reduced if there were no ambiguities or complexities in society's accepted morals. Lower IQ folks have difficulty dealing with such things. If the morals of society are simple and fixed, there will be less dysfunction. I gave this some thought, and the problem with it is that even if it is correctly, it is tailoring laws and morals to suit the needs of the lowest common denominator.
BTW, Luke, are porn actresses/actors more likely to come from working class backgrounds, upper class, lower class, or the dregs? What's the scoop, Luke?
Luke: Porn actresses come from the same demographic as hookers and strippers - working class to dregs. A doctor I am dating told me she would've stripped to pay her way through medical school if she had needed to. She didn't, being the daughter of rich Jews.
3. NJG said the other day that she used to be sort of an anarchist, and now she's veering toward being republican. Churchill once said that if you are not liberal when you're young, you have no heart. If you're not conservative when you're old, you have no head.
4. I really got a kick out of Dr. Zdrok's statement that the Soviets tried to indoctrinate people into believing that as humanity progressed toward communism, the male focus on female appearance would diminish. I wonder if anyone in all of Russia actually believed that. Of course, the wives of the Soviet leaders (prior to Raisa Gorbachev) were utter hags. I have a feeling that they had something to do with injecting this ideology into the official catechism of communism.
5. I have some advice for the Max Hardcore wannabe. After sticking the speculum up the girl's butt, but before cranking it to "extra large", he should have given her flowers and promised her that he'd respect her in the morning. I think that Max Hardcore edits out those scenes, but in the European versions of his videos, some of those scenes still remain. (Of course, he usually pisses on the flowers afterwards.)
Jenna Jameson
> Maybe Jenna. Pretty much alot of people know who she is already and what she > does. Hot cock sucking whore if it wasn't for the feminists she could make it > for sure. I'm sure Steven Speilburg needs a blowjob and I"m sure he'll let > Jenna be in one of his movies. You know why.
Jones writes on RAME: I saw her the other day in a Starbucks on Ventura. She's not much in the looks department when compared to the thousands of unknowns with talent who flock to Hollywood every year. If S.S. wanted a blowjob there are at least twenty knockouts within shouting distance at Amblin alone. Jenna's got a miniscule chance to act -- and I use that term loosely -- in anything mainstream. Besides her rather obvious lack of talent, she's nothing more than a bucktoothed cartoon. Just MHO.
Den writes: I dont know what all the dissing about is on Jenna Jameson. She changed the adult industry and is the icon of the porn industry. I dont thing she is on drugs or is a drunk. Even if she cannot make it in the acting career she can still turn back to porn again. I think that Jenna Jameson is very good looking and good in porn unlike what Jones said on your site. People must be that jealous its so hillarious. Jones wishes he could get with her.
PornStarTrading.com Sucks
Jerry writes on RAME: I was in PST earlier today and as usual the regulars there didn't say anything. I greeted the group only to be completely ignored. This is not the first time. I have stopped in there many times over the months only to be given the cold shoulder. It's ironic, Diablo urges everyone in RAME to check it out as if it was a cool place for the fans of porn to hang out. Nah. If you are thinking about hanging out there be prepared to be ignored. It's a clique. If you are somehow related to porn you are welcomed. If you're a regular joe who just happens to like porn you will be ignored. I guess they don't think too much of their so-called fan base.
Drew replies: I stopped in PST earlier this week for the first time. It was about 10:30 pm. I thought that most everyone was very cordial. We had a great discussion about the transition to DVD for a while before I had to run. I would recommend PST as a place to check out if you are into the IRC thing.
Dark: I must agree with Drew on the subject. I've been a PST irregular since about November of last year (I say irregular because I lurk in the background maybe once or twice a week for about an hour at a time). The only time I was treated rudely was by some guy (who's internet nickname I can't recall) who kept arguing with me about how Extacy was the greatest drug on the planet. I don't think he was a PST regular either, because he didn't have a @ or + by his nickname (thus denoting some sort of status I haven't figured out yet). Regardless, the rest of the time I have engaged in discussion with anyone in that channel, I've never been treated sub-human by any standards. Did you say something wrong, Jerry? Did you talk of children, animals, or rape? Those are the only three topics that are off limit's there, and will not only get you a cold shoulder, but they will boot you out too. Perhaps if you just lurk like I do, there won't be any problems.
Atlanta Dildos
Mike South writes: Luke, a few years back Atlanta Police Chief Beverly Harvard staged a daring "dildo raid" In the dark of night our intrepid police boss sent officers swarming into adult shops in Buckhead to search for and confiscate any (gasp!) vibrators they might find. What a scene! Television news cameras catching cops carrying boxes of dangerous vibrators into police headquarters.
The people of Buckhead felt so completely safe after that raid .... and, in truth, I have to admit that there hasn't been one assault, not one murder, not one armed robbery, not one crime of any kind committed with a vibrator in Buckhead since that night. At least not in public.
Well ... this doesn't help the Buckhead merchants or their lonely customers, but the Supreme Court of Louisiana has weighed in on the issue of vibrators and other sex toys. In so many words the court said that it's none of the government's business if a shop owner wants to sell adult sexual aids.
Consider this, though. Louisiana law is based on the old Napoleanic Code of France. Georgia law is based on English Common Law. One shouldn't be surprised that the French would smile on sex aids while the British frown. Who, after all, invented ........ Oh never mind. How about a vibrator buy-back program in Atlanta? The Free Speech Cabal could maybe sponsor it.....
Concerned writes Luke: I really appreciate the "Glossary" of porn
terms provided in your "Subjects" section (embarrassingly I had previously
thought "Auto-Fellatio" was a French sports car). What I would really
value now is a Glossary of the Yiddish terms I frequently hear bandied
about on your site. We gentiles want in on the fun too. Yenta? Shiksas?
Goyum? Bukkake? Can you shed a little light? BTW isn't it time to
add "Gerantaphilia" to the "Glossary"?
Patrick Riley Tackles Lynne L-patin
Pat Riley writes: I hope your readers realize, that with some minor exceptions such as this missive, items posted under my name on your site are not intended for that destination but are usually part of an ongoing discussion on rame. I have no objection to your re-publication of them but I think they're sometimes difficult to read when taken out of context and when your readers don't know the players.
My remarks about Shiloh's estrogen course for example are related to an insider (to rame members) running joke between myself and voyager which dates back many months to an original discussion about Brazilian she-males and their superiority over the US variety. It's not some serious gender-swapping conspiracy as might be assumed on reading just the last fragment of the conversation.
That said, I'm bored trying to resolve all the Hungarian Monica's and the American Summer's and Samantha's--a near impossible task--so let me deal with some of Lynne's mixed up reasoning.
Lynne says:
Pat Riley seems to despise male performers as much as he does female performers. Equal despicability is, I suppose, closer to the egalitarian sexuality and society some of us crave so badly. But for those of you who complain about feminism (a label to which I will not subscribe), I have a question: if you resent so badly a system which casts men in the role of "economic support," why do you also fight so hard against women being independent creatures able to support themselves? Because, as Pat points out, we have no need for men except as breadwinners, and wouldn't have sex with them otherwise? Then why not encourage us to be more sexual, rather than less, and let us see men as potential sources of fun and amusement and orgasms rather than as beasts who insult us and take what they won't let us give.
Riley replies:
Oh, where to begin? This is akin to cleaning the Augean stables.
As usual for a woman, Lynne personalizes the question and sees it
in terms of how it will affect her and even presumes that I, or someone
equally archaic
In the late sixties we did exactly what you suggested. We agreed with the women that now that a man had invented something--the pill--which allowed them to control their breeding and that other men had invented machinery and technology generally that eliminated the need for high upper body strength to do the majority of society's work and had even made home duties so fast and easy that even--gasp!--men could do them, that there was little reason to exclude them from the real workplace. They too were free and even encouraged to work alongside us and flip burgers, pick up garbage, drive buses and do all those wonderful things that were so much more thrilling than staying home and watching soap operas, eating bon-bon's, and gossiping over the back fence with others in the "idle housewife" class.
Much as you (Lynne) tell us today, the women then assured us that
it was only our archaic
If we stopped regarding them as sluts and whores when they had a little fun on the side and if they were able to earn their own living on an entirely equal basis with men a nirvana of sexual bliss awaited us males. "Free love" available to all on demand would be the order of the day. There'd be no more marriage as we know it. People would copulate where and when they felt like it. Rimmer would be able to mow his lawn in the nude (something he has apparently had problems with his neighbors about)!
You wouldn't need to date a girl. She'd ask you out or rather would propose sex with a perhaps slightly less crude version of "Wanna f---?" And of course boys would be copulating with boys, girls would be doing whatever girls do to each other, and heterosexual sex would be so common that they'd install sex rooms instead of lunch rooms in high school.
I had a tingling suspicion that there was something wrong with this message but nevertheless as a young male I was very much in favor of the "new sex order". After all anything that promised me as much sex as I could handle couldn't be bad even if it meant fending off a few gays and turning down the fat uggas without being too cruel.
But I realized that these things were not going to change overnight and women needed confidence that we really would let them take their place alongside us on the treadmills of industry. At the time I had hiring responsibility for a group of about 20 programmers and I put into place my personal affirmative action plan hiring as many women as possible, paying appropriate attention to obtaining the most attractive ones of course. Not that this was totally altruistic you understand; I also wanted to ensure that there would be hordes of women just waiting to fight over my body when the moment came.
I'm still waiting.
No, actually I'm not. I've come to a realization that the above was all fiction. Women never intended to change their view of sex. They lacked that very important ingredient necessary to cause them to want to screw: adequate supplies of testosterone. And, the good looking ones had a much better life in keeping to the old system. Sheesh, why work when you can have a man support you?
Oh, maybe they'd work for a few years at some nice clean job like a lawyer (Ally McBeal anyone?) and then when the urge came to pump out a baby... well you don't think they were going to support it themselves do you? And they found out about another little thing their mothers and grandmothers knew all along: raising babies, even one or two, is a full time job. Yep, the wealthy can employ a substitute mother known as a nanny and just spend "quality time" with their yuppy puppy but for 95% of the population that's financially impossible. The next best thing is--god forbid--an old-fashioned husband.
Geez, now how do we arrange that? If we just give away our "free love" why would that potential Mr. Right bother to support us and our spawn? Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free? And don't forget that males are selfish SOB's. They're always wanting that new piece of ass so even if you attract them in the beginning, they're just going to wander off and start giving their surplus food to that slut next door.
But, you say I don't want to have kids (I'm aware Lynne has a daughter; I'm speaking generally); why should I have to put up with such a system? Well, one quick answer is that just because you want to commit genetic suicide doesn't mean the rest of us do and we'll force you if necessary to ensure that our side survives. Imagine for a moment a world without children: without a next and a next etc. generation. Who would change your diapers in the nursing home? Who would buy the goodies that keep your 401K flush with money so that you can pay for your retirement? Who would pay your social security? Who would give you your shot of morphine in hospital?
But there's another aspect even if you ignore the question of children.
Men are lazy f---s (just look at Luke
Can you imagine the economic depression? The thirties would have been a time of plenty in comparison. The movie industry down the toilet. The restaurants could close up. Florists? A dying breed. Clothes for men? How much would it take for a couple of T-shirts, jeans, and a pair of sneakers? And then you'd have the ripple effect. Because the guys aren't driving to pick up the girl there'd be less gas consumed and less need for road repairs, or construction, or cars... And lets not forget that the porn industry could also close down. After all, men are not particularly interested in viewing porn immediately after having sex and under the "free love" system that would mean all the time.
And then we have another little problem that has to do with the biological differences between men and women. Despite PC claims to the contrary most men want to screw young women. That's most men of any age. So what happens to older women? Cats are about their only viable option. Trust me, for any woman over 30 a "free love" society would be a disaster.
So you see, Lynne, while lots of the above is exaggerated, a move along the lines you suggest of males abandoning the role of provider and turning them into some sort of jester to give you orgasms simply won't work. Without the requirement to work to get laid and to spend to attract the female (which requires work to generate the money to spend) our society would slip down the proverbial toilet.
This is also why porn for the young (say under 30) is bad. It satisfies the male's craving for sex without him having to go out and endure the pain and suffering of trying to attract a female. The better the porn the worse it is for society. Not that I can suggest a practical way to keep it out of the hands of the under 30's.
Lynne writes: Dear Pat:
I'm very sorry, but my usually sharp brain seems a little dull tonight, it's because I spent the day at a job interview. Got the job. Went to the training session. This summer it'll be five days a week at school and two twelve-hour shifts on the weekends. Good thing Luke isn't lazy, because I won't be around anymore to do his work for him.
Not being the usual woman, and writing using the plural, rather than singular first person, as I do when I personalize my rants, I have to note that you did begin this discourse with a sexist insult. What the point of that was, I don't know, but if it was meant to put me on the defensive, sorry. I didn't fall for it. Didn't turn me on, either.
Women have always worked. The arena of their work shifted from the home to the marketplace following the industrial revolution, but women have always worked. As you point out, Pat, housework was once far more onerous than it is today. Rich women hired poor women to help them. There have always been more poor women than rich women, and women have always worked for the same reason: they needed the income. They never married, their husband left them with children, or their husband died. Women never worked for fun anymore than men did. (There have always been a few dilettantes around; rich men who took up law or medicine or gentleman farming; rich women who took up the arts or social work, but that's not what we're really discussing, is it?)
I turned fifteen in 1970, so I don't remember what women told anyone first hand, but from my husband (who was ten years my senior) and from my reading of "feminist" history, women never said that they wanted vast quantities of promiscuous sex. They wanted to experiment a little perhaps before they settled down; mostly they wanted freedom to engage in sexual relationships with men with whom they already had emotional relationships, prior to marriage and without fear of pregnancy.
"If we stopped regarding them as sluts and whores when they had a little fun on the side and if they were able to earn their own living on an entirely equal basis with men a nirvana of sexual bliss awaited us males."
Lynne: Not just males; all of us. And men never did change their attitudes toward women; they just got worse. How stupid! It was bad enough being patronized with "Honey, this" and "Honey, that." But calling us hos and bitches doesn't work either.
Egalitarian treatment never really happened in the Sixties. Women ran the copy machines and were sent out for coffee while men discussed the big issues. Men assumed that women would want them, because they were big time social revolutionaries, and shouldn't be offended when asked crudely, "Wanna f---?"
My husband and his first wife, who were there (in Berkeley in the '60's), told me about their sex lives. Actually, he said he had all the sex he could handle, and she said she was always pulling him off some young hippie chick. He was happy about it and she was not (which is how I know he was actually getting and not just bragging!)
And the next thing we knew, women, who had yet to achieve economic parity with men (which still hasn't happened, thirty some odd years later) had separated themselves away from men and established their own social movement. (This is about where I come in, as a pornographer, in 1975.) And as someone who loves men and loves having sex with men, I was ostracized and called "slut" by both genders!
You yourself "confess" to having unrealistic expectations of the women you hired as programmers. You thought somehow they would take an aggressive role, and see you as an appropriate sex object. But we don't have sex with the boss, silly '; that leads to all sorts of trouble. Now we call it sexual harassment. Back then there weren't words for it, but sex with people at work was and is a dicey proposition (sorry).
"I'm still waiting." And with your attitude, you will wait forever.
"Women never intended to change their view of sex". Yes, they did. They did change their view of sex. They no longer wait until marriage to have sex. They're willing to have sex in the context of a serious relationship, and occasionally even a one night stand or two. HIV f---ed things up big time, but women did have sex with men outside marriage. And most babies born to African Americans are borne by single women.
Women have a very powerful biological urge to have sex. It's called "ovulation." Our bodies beg us to find men to fertilize us. The pill takes that away completely. Ironic, isn't it? The very contraceptive that makes sex safe (from the unwanted reproduction aspect) takes away our sex drives by preventing ovulation!
Fifty percent of all marriages now end in divorce. The divorce rate blew sky high during the late Seventies, early Eighties, as women became more capable of making a choice between entering the workforce or staying in an unfulfilling relationship. Even those women who are fortunate at some time during their marriage to have a man capable of earning enough money to support the family know that they can't count on him earning wages for the balance of their lives. Most families now need two incomes just to make ends meet.
Lawyers? Doctors? Let's be realistic. Women work on assembly lines, behind fast food counters, as secretaries and nurses and dental hygienists. Most women, like most men, have no access to education. And that "urge to pump out a baby?" It's there, all the time. From the time we're fourteen and in love for the first time, until we finally admit that our reproductive opportunities are over, whether for financial reasons, marital reasons, or that the dreaded menopause has finally taken over and makes our wombs resemble beef jerky.
Counting on having a husband for financial support doesn't cut it anymore. Now two people work, juggle childcare, and ideally juggle housework (though most women still work one shift outside the home and another after hours.)
In 1992, when I was so miserable over being brutalized at CPLC (Brandy had the word for it; I just don't remember) my husband said, "Quit." We lived so modestly (no retirement plans other than paying our child support). I started a business, and started hustling, just like a guy. I wrote my butt off. Edited porn paperbacks and started writing mainstream screen treatments. Sat down and wrote six hours a day. Bruce told me, "You are the best writer I have ever seen. I am happy to support you to sit at home and write. I am happy to be able to do it."
Then he lost his job. We fought a lot. We wrote for AVN under his name until they fired him over an honest review, and refused to take his calls until we gave up.
You know what? Men hate being asked out. Hate it with a passion. They all say they love it, but when I do it (and I don't know many other women who bother) they get scared. Their sacred prerogative 'being in control ' has been taken away! They run! They get funny ideas about the woman who did asking. And men are indeed selfish SOB's. Even when they aren't chasing some new piece of ass, they're hanging with their buddies instead of vacuuming or doing laundry or watching the kids.
"But, you say I don't want to have kids'" No, I didn't. Someone else must have said that, and for some people, it's a valid choice. Some people don't have the skills or the role models or the extended family or the financial wherewithal to have kids. Of course, most people have them anyway. But women who have to work to support the family they already have think a lot harder about having more children. And women who have the opportunity to do something, anything, which validates their feminine self-image other than bearing children, delay childbearing or don't bother at all. Literacy has been proven over and over again to be the very best contraceptive.
If you want to look at men who are "lazy f---s," don't look at Luke. He likes to pretend he's a lazy f---, but he works very, very hard. He'd rather not, just like I'd rather not, but he does it anyway.
Working class men, no matter how hard they work, never get beyond the minimum necessary for the beer, pizza and TV. They shave because work demands it, but they don't wash their clothes or change their bedsheets. Their wives work to pay the rent, then come home, feed the kids, wash the clothes etc.
There are no free f---s. For either gender. Most men would be so glad to sink their dicks into hot pussy that the age of said pussy is hardly relevant. I could get on Yahoo personals and find as many guys as I wanted, if I wanted, despite my age. Most of them are desperate for cunt. Most of them won't turn down a real offer. And back when it was a lot safer to screw strangers, swingers were in their late thirties, forties, and early fifties.
What does happen to older women? If they're lucky, they f--- older men. I didn't expect my husband to die, for chrissakes. I never ever thought I'd be a 43-year-old widow. And I assure you that, away from the world of pornophiles, I have plenty of men hitting on me and wishing I'd take them up on it.
Women; most women; are very easy. If young men didn't learn their seduction techniques from porn (We're back to "Wanna f---?"), they'd get more nookie than they could handle (assuming they bathe and keep their weight somewhat normal.) Treat 'em nice, take 'em out for coffee and a movie. Most women have no problem going "Dutch" with a new guy, because it lets them retain some semblance of choice. No one wants to feel "bought," just appreciated. Return their calls, don't stand them up, don't leave them waiting at bars. They'll pay their own way AND they'll f--- you. And if they won't, you don't want them anyway.
Goddess writes: I half agree with what Pat Riley says--"sex is only a minor part of marriage." Sex IS only a minor part of marriage IF the sex is going well. If there's a sexual problem, then sex becomes a MAJOR issue.
Lynne, you're just gonna have to rely on NJG for your sex sandwich fantasy with Luke. I'm looking for somebody whose thighs are a little more whipcord....
Lynne L-patin writes: I was the manager for the Shayla LaVeaux gangbang for Zane.
For those who care, Filmco and Totally Tasteless are the same company. Heatwave Entertainment has a tape called "87 and Still Bangin" as well as a bunch of other videos featuring women even older than I am. I keep looking in the mirror for the "old biddie" and can't find her. She's probably down at the gym, keeping up with the babes in their twenties. "Beauty In History" (Luke, you aren't the only one who goes everywhere with a book just in case some asshole stands you up at a bar) says that youth has always been a hallmark of beauty, ESPECIALLY when the average life span was 37 and women became pregnant year after year until it killed them. Nothing to do with PC. I hate PC. Everything to do with paedophilia. Everything to do with men too insecure to deal with equals, Pat.
Pat Riley: If Filmco and Totally Tasteless are the same company, someone should tell Michael Chalfin and the de Roos. Filmco is in Sun Valley and TTV is in Arleta. They're not the same Lynne, unless they merged in the last week or two.
More Pat Riley: Sex is only a minor part of marriage. People who ignore this rule end up in divorce court.
Lynne: I beg to differ. Sex is a major part of marriage. Good sex will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no sex (to paraphrase an old hippie comic book.) Marriage is the difference between celibacy and life as a slut. I had sex 2 to 3 times a day for over seven years WITH MY HUSBAND. Watch my videos (not the ones I'm in but the ones I produced) and you'll see why. True love between egalitarian partners is very sexy. Marrying a woman because she looks good but secretly can't stand you is the absolutely quickest trip to the afore-mentioned divorce court.
Luke: After a week away, I went shopping Tuesday and bought $166 worth of groceries. About $50 worth of protein bars, particularly my favorite Promax Bar - Lemon Chiffon. And 10 cartons of soy milk. Five different flavors of fruit juice concentrate to make smoothies. Five pounds of Golden Delicious apples and six pounds of bananas. And packs of lemon, strawberry and lime icecream bars. And two big bottles of Kedem grape jiuce
Lynne: And a whole lot of toilet paper, I hope. Sounds like a real recipe for diarrhea. Where are the carbohydrates? The pure proteins? It's okay to be a vegetarian, but Luke, you sound like a fruit eater. Not a cocksucker, though some might assume so. You DO need a little Asian woman to cook for you!
>ms. L-patin, do you believe that f---flicks portray a more powerful and empowered woman than mainstream entertainment venues, even those that cater specifically to the non-penised?
L: I pay no attention to mainstream entertainment venues, being that they are aimed at the lowest common denominator, which I definitely am not.
>how do you defend your advice to the newbie f---hole and her relations with her "boyfriend", since you told her that he deserved to know what she was doing and if he didn't accept it, she should dump the goddamned, closed-minded, sexist, male pig?
P: I don't need to defend my advice: it's egalitarian respect or nada. Use a condom or die. do you truly believe that same-sex marriages between pornlets are in any way comparable to actual marriages in the realworld? Hell no. They all start with a ceremony, but same sex marriages avoid the government tangle at dissolution.
>since you insist that pornography is, by steinem's definition, directly concerned with the degradation of women [sic] and not the portrayal of sex and that it would not exist were it not for the goddamned, woman-hating, penis-wielding manpigs that demand it, how do you defend your continued inclusion in the industry?; are you not, by definition, supporting such dreadful habits - an accessory to the crime, as it were?
L: All I did was quote my textbook. I didn't say I agreed. In fact, I said I disagreed. Read more carefully next time. Then watch one of the movies I produced myself, and see if Max Hardcore, Adult Video News etc. have anything in common. I love women. I'd like to sandwich Luke F-rd between myself and NJG or Goddess, so we could make mad, passionate love over his unwilling body and teach him a thing or two about what it's like to pleasure a female and walk away without acting like a jerk.
Luke: Sounds like the fulfillment of my deepest fantasties.
Lynne L-patin on the Razor's Edge?
Curious begs: Dear NJG - I appeal to you to drag your good friend, Lynne Lopatain, out of the 1970's. Please explain to her as delicately as possible that the Vietnam war is over, Nixon is dead, and that normal women now trim their pubic regions. The fur bikini look is OVER. I mean even Ron "The Warthog" Jeremy tugs a razor over his wrinkly nut sack so why can't she evolve too? Perhaps the best way to convince her is for you to submit some nude photos of yourself to show her just what a cosmopolitan women shaves like. I always fantasized that you had one of those little Hitler mustaches going on down there. I'm sure I speak for the majority of men when I say: Ya' can't eat it if ya' can't find it!
Lynne: I like being tied up and shaved. Very silly video, and lots of fun. All the tattoos airbrushed out on the box. Isn't it my husband's duty to tell me how to groom my public hair, and no other man's business? Yours in Sacred Devotion, Dianna Roth.
Putative Jew Putative Moves To Inside.com - Zionist Conspiracy?
Learned Elder of Zion, Marc Putative, writes: luke--i'm honored to have fed at the gettingit.com trough, back in the fall. i was impressed enough with the site to pitch them a few ideas. what i ended up writing was a semi-coherent review of the toronto film festival, which really didn't translate in the comedic sense in which it was intended, but nobody seemed to give a damn down there and i got paid my 420 american smackers. but how, or why, this publication even existed bewildered me, so i'm glad to have heard the whole story.
as for inside.com, i met with the two fine minds behind the project, kurt andersen and michael hirschorn in january, and i am theoretically on tap to contribute to that site real soon. what they're doing has that real fin-de-siecle quality to it, revealing that, for all people involved in show business, the business part has become far more compelling than the show. and, coming from a christina aguilera press conference today--which i attended for the same masochistic time-killing reason edward norton went to disease support groups in "fight club" (except that i got a free t-shirt, too)--i can't help but agree wholeheartedly. the making of any image is now much more intriguing than the image in itself. so, to answer your question, the only threat inside.com poses to l-keford.com is that you'll be getting less rambling emails from me soon as i'm given my detail from them :)
Dana Plato Porn Star?
Wyatt Earp writes: Rumor has it that Dana Plato did soft porn. I noticed danaplatocult.com has a good number of hardcore photos of Dana taken during a period of time the site refers to as "The Bad Years". There is one photo that I recognized but had never made the association to her name. Interestingly, her adoptive parents wouldn't let her play in The Exorcist but did let her join two other orphans to join what was to later become the first California street gang of the 1980s.
Luke Seeks Lovin'
Rumdar writes: Luke... The weekend is coming up buddy. Singles mixers of all kind begin today. Thursday evening is prime time for such gatherings whether they be Jewish or otherwise. I am sure your loyal readers will want you to be out there giving it another shot. Do not stay home whacking your noodle under the covers simply because you didn't score last time. Real Jews don't take no for an answer. We don't give a crap about Kianna Bradley and her problems. We want Luke news.
Perhaps I can help. Last week you were shunned by the Yiddisha chicks and I suggested next time you go Asian. However I rethought my advice. Both Jewish and Asian women are highly intelligent. They are going to see right through your lame rap and three piece Men's Wearhouse suit. (unless of course your Asian is in dire need of a greencard). It is time for a win.....an X in the plus column as it were. Luke, stick the Star of David gold chain in your pocket, open the singles paper and look for a Baptist Singles Mixer. You can't miss...Baptist women are the dimmest of the dumb. With your Aussie accent, good looks and snappy casual attire they are going to lap up any line you feed them.
If you see one you like, saunter up and tell her you are a writer for the Guidepost or some other right wing Christian publication. Odds are she isn't too bright and will be duly impressed. Jerry Farwell? Yeah! you know him. Had lunch with him yesterday. I'll wager they won't even object to taking a ride in the van. The one that looks like you have been transporting illegals over from Mexico. Get busy Luke......Do it for us. We need to live vicariously through your triumphs. There is plenty of time to go Yiddish later. Do not subject you readership to another chapter of Luke's Masturbation Journal. We demand real action. You owe us buddy ...pump yourself up and get out there..And Good Luck. >From somewhere in the west....................................rum
Nice Jewish Girl writes: Lynne: Luke would have casual sex with a chick he met a bus stop in a New York minute. He can't have sex with people he really knows though. Too much pressure and feelings for him. He is completely shut down in that department and is only capable of having sex with strangers.
Luke can be inspiring, true. SOME things, like vegetarianism, pacifism, fetishizing and being fascinated by Jews, admitting your defects, having general sensitivity to the world...all good things. Bad things: stalking and being in love with archaic jerk Prager who isn't even living the life he preaches about, being against abortion, general hypocriticalness, being completely emotionally shut down with others and being disassosiative, incapable of having a relationship with a female, extreme fetishization of jews to the point of converting just because of this fetish.
OTOH, good things: being strange and yet thinking that he is normal because he wears a suit ....he he he ...he tries to fit in by saying, hey look, I look normal, I'm not weird because I don't wear weird clothes (like punks, ravers, bikers, etc. other non-mainstream people), but really, serial killers like Ted Bundy were extremely personable and nice and didn't wear weird clothes. It's those guys you gotta watch out for.
Ishmael ibn abu of Mecca writes: Last night I had a really weird dream about you and Kendra Jade. You and she were getting married beneath some sort of canopy, and I was present to witness the happy event. Most of my dreams have the force of destiny, Mr. Ford. You must marry this girl, pay for the removal of all implants, tattoos, and the like, and make an honest bride of her, a woman your kids will be proud to call "Mom." You will be very happy for it. Ishmael ibn abu of Mecca
Rumdar writes: Luke, I think Mr. Ibn Abu de Mecca is on to something. I must advise you not to ignore these Middle Eastern mystics. I wrote you once that since you are already Kendra Jade's lap dog, marriage would seem to be the logical conclusion of your one sided relationship. Now Mr. Abu has looked into the future and the future is Jade.
However, let us take this one step further. In Mr. Ibu Abu's religion a man is allowed, no, encouraged to take more than one wife. Ask him if it would be possible to marry Ms. Jade AND Nice Jewish Girl (she of keen intellect, big boobs, frizzy hair and natural honker)..Then you would be satisfying your dream of having a Jewish Girl as your soulmate whilst still enjoying some nasty sex. Take it one step further and see if you can marry three. The third being the dim whited, big chested blond Baptist you may meet this weekend. Think what an asset the Baptist would be at P.T.A bake sales.
I suggest we get all your loyal subjects involved in this. Nice Jewish Girl (it is her marriage isn't it)? Fred 'the Jewish' Lawyer, Elder of Zion Marc the rock critic, and some goyishas....John, Paul, Peter, whatever the hell his name is and everyone else. And let us not leave out Chaim Amaluk de Hillary. Come on folks, this is serious. Luke's future is at stake.
PS...If you tie the knot (knots) the Texas barbecue is on me.............rum
Marc Putative writes: perfect timing for rumdar's proposed wedding, too ... it's lag b'omer on tuesday, which marks the end of the 33 days of semi mourning since passover, signifying the end of the plague that was killing rabbi akiva's students. (gosh, the jews have a lot of days like these, huh?). i'll happily sign luke's ketubah, then we'll go shoot arrows in the park. (they can be phallic ones, too. just like flesh gordon ...)
p.s. i almost forgot. i actually have an article coming out this weekend that's porn related. i spent a couple hours in an adults only video store in oakville, ontario, chronicling an appearance by septugenarian sex therapist sue johanson--who emerged as a counter-dr. ruth in canada in the mid-'80s, still seen on television each week. check it out at www.saturdaynight.ca after you've done havdalah ... it's my debut appearance in the prestigious canadian periodical, which relaunched this week as a slick weekly after 115 years of existence.
Britney Spears Porn Star
From the May 16 Chicago Sun Times:
By Jim Derogatis, pop music critic
The "good girl gone bad" (or the "clean girl who gets dirty") is a fantasy that's dominated male pornography since the first caveman drew naked pictures on the wall of his rock abode.
It isn't Spears' first embrace of this pose: In the video for "Baby One More Time," she bursts out of a confining schoolgirl uniform and flaunts her womanly charms with a series of intensely aerobic thrusts.
About those charms: The New York Daily News reports that Spears had breast augmentation surgery at 17.
Reared in rural Kentwood, La., Spears boasts of a "just reg'lar folks" Southern upbringing. But in fact she has a driven stage mom who laboriously chronicles their rise to the top in a new book co-written with her daughter, Britney Spears' Heart to Heart. (Profusely illustrated with vampy photos, it includes several of a young Britney that are reminiscent of those creepy pictures of JonBenet Ramsey.)
"Britney was the Mouseketeer, so she's the little baby doll who went bad," said Michael Kackman, a professor of media studies at DePaul University. "The porn iconography is all there, from the Catholic schoolgirl thing to the latest Barbarella-inspired video."
But like a lot of feminist academics, Kackman is as wary of the
Britney backlash as he is of the Britney hype. "She's incredibly well-marketed
and she is playing on these pedophiliac fantasies--it's not like she's
some kind of heroine," he said. "But she certainly speaks to a desire
for teenage independence, and we have to be concerned about reactionary
attempts to control teenage girls' sexuality."
