Talking Blue Star of the Day

An excerpt: Generally recognized as the worst thing to happen to the adult industry since the advent of AIDS, Luke F-rd through his eponymous website www.l-keford.com has managed to become one of the biggest news stories in the porn world by tracking some of the biggest news stories in the porn world.

Frequently referred to as the "Matt Drudge" of porn, Ford is the new breed of cyber-journalist that lives and dies by the breaking news story. By his own admission, he has been known to "shoot first and ask questions later".

Love him or hate him (with seemingly more in the latter group than the former), one has to acknowledge that Ford is a force in the adult industry to be reckoned with. To mark his 34th birthday (on May 28h, 2000), we have selected to name Luke F-rd our "Featured Artist".

........

In two weeks, Paul Thomas shoots a film in New York for Vivid.

Over the past few month, Kevin Beech has retaken control of production at his companies KBeech, Midnight Film, Erotic Ange etc... General manager Jeff Steward now concentrates on his other tasks.

Whatever happened to 1985 hispanic porn star Susan Hart? She' recently become a doctor of chiropractic.

In Lori Michaels chat at Lorilive.com Friday night, Vivid girl Lori asked Madelyn Knight to marry her. Lori writes: I had her on as a guest last night. We have been talking alot lately and she is doing some video for our web cams and photo shoots. One thing led to another, and with the Howard Stern show and all I decided I better act. I had around 40 fans in the chat last night with her, and "I" ask her if she would marry me. She said yes, and I almost fell over.

Green: c'mon Luke, on the level. Is the game, promote or destroy the industry?

Luke For me, neither, but I am more anti than pos.

Black writes: Yo Luke, how hard is it to cross over from doing porn to going after a Oscar!!!!! Also is there racism in the industry against blacks!!!!

Luke: Real hard. About as much as in real life.

Mondo Family Films

Brother Terry writes from www.mondofamilyfilms.com: Dear Lukey, The Mondo Family is finishing up work on our new production "Camp Erotica." I am sending you some pix taken last Sunday down in Temecula, where all the outdoor shooting was done. The new flick stars KiKi D'Aire, Ariel, Maren Beautte and Rikki Lixx as the Camp Erotica girls. Also starring Rocketboy in a non-sex role. Dave Hardman, Fritz the Cat and 2 newcomers make up the male sex performers. Hope your viewers enjoy the pix.

P.T.L., Brother Terry --- We do it for the Children, The Mondo Prayer Warriors

    CAMP

Fred write: After looking at Ms. Barron's web site and the pictures of "Camp Erotica", I'd say that if the girls at the "Camp Erotica" shoot can get into porno, then Ms. Barron can get into Porno. Boy, some of the girls in that photo shoot look so awful I bet they have to sneak up on a glass of water.

Brian: Damn Luke, that's some of the ugliest f---ing girls I've ever seen in porn.. Couldn't they find one decent looking woman for this film???

Aghast writes: Luke, Once again your laziness with fact checking humiliates you. After viewing the "Camp Erotica" girls it is clear to even my untrained eye that these are not genetic females. Are they Pre-Op Transsexuals? Are they Post-Op Transsexuals? I am unsure and uninterested. I find it ironic that the photos of these "creatures" were taken in front of a lagoon. Back! Back hideous creatures! Return to the depths of the lagoon from whence you came!

Concerned writes: Mr. Ford - I am unclear where the legal responsibility lies in my situation. When I viewed the Camp Erotica photos my dick got so scared it tried to hide up my asshole. Who should I sue for this painful predicament?

You, for exposing me to this sexual health hazard? Mondo Films, for producing this visual atrocity? The ... ahem ... "girls" for having the audacity to appear before a camera? Or the swap meet where the "girls" had their inferior plastic surgery performed?

I thank the Lord that these girls were fully clothed in their photos. What if they were nude? Dear Christ! The Horror! The Horror!

BTW Any suggestions as to how to clean vomit off my keyboard?

Dr. Keith O'Daniel writes: Luke, Regardless of your opinion of the women of Camp Erotica, Colonel Rob Schaffer, the genius behind Camp Erotica, is the only director in the industry that's producing anything of interest. I suggest that you refrain from comment until you've seen the product, unitil you've seen former child actor Francis Lurid turned porn star in ACTION with the spirited women of Camp Erotica. If you want cute, mindless, go rent a Wet Cotton Panties video. If you want hardcore nasty with artistic merit, then rent any Mondo Family Video production.

Bruce writes: Luke, Im beginning to make up my mind about you, you chastise one man for making rude comments abnout Lynne , which was thoughtful and Im sure appreciated. (Although the sarcasm was so subtle, it probably ricocheted off the top of that sloping forehead). Then you turn around and publish these jackoff remarks regarding Mondos new film. These guys have probably only seen two pussys (live not memorex) in their lives, the one they came out of, and the one that laughed at them so hard that it obviously sent them running to the video store for the rest of their lives. With the price of petroleum skyrocketing, they probably wont be able to afford sex soon,and should be more appreciative of the fact that these girls are here now. As to why you would publish something so insensitive (not to mention, ,boring, maybe you could limit comments to the merely stupid), knowing it would be read, I dont know. To the, Ahemmmmm.... gentlemen who graced us with their priceless wisdom, I'll say this. Its fairly simple, kind of like in shcool. If you dont have anything nice to say, dont f---in say anything at all. That way, you'll only look like an asshole.

Aghast writes: All right 'fess up "Bruce". Which of those swamp things was you? KiKi D'Aire? Ariel? Maren Beautte? or Rikki Lixx?

XX writes: What in the world happened to the sexy Azlea Antistia website www.azleaxxx.com? It was up for a few months with some problems recieving memberships then checked back; it is gone.

Fantasy Female

Pat Riley writes on RAME: There's no serious disagreement about what constitutes a fantasy car. The price is well in excess of what you can afford, there's arbitration by such sources as Car And Driver, and only the beautiful people drive them. (Al Goldstein's Rolls Royce was an aberration.) So why is there a dispute as to what constitutes the fantasy female?

Agreed that sexiness and good physical looks are not necessarily the same but the response then should be, "Yes, I agree that Gina Gorgeous has a wonderful body and adorable face but somehow [your subtle strand reference] she doesn't get me sexually aroused." Instead there's a denial of Gina's gorgeousness.

Lattara is constantly on my case about my alleged lack of knowledge of popular culture so tonight I had some time to kill and it was raining so I visited a large B&N and spent around 45 minutes browsing the women's magazines. (I wonder why I keep getting disapproving looks from the female customers?)

No tattoos on the girls in this month's Seventeen and it has lots of girls in bikinis! In fact I didn't notice any tattoos at all in any of the magazines including two from Italy but I must admit that one or two tattoos could have slipped by in the ones other than Seventeen.

Almost all of the women fell into my "fantasy female" group and most of the ones that didn't were illustrations in serious articles such as "Sex doesn't have to stop at 40", hehehe. However even this one didn't have a Roseanne Barr look-a-like as the illustration.

So I guess the next thing will be a post from lattara saying that these women's magazines are all out of step and know nothing about popular culture. Could I just hazard a guess that the problem is with the porn industry and the avid porn watcher (to avoid the "r" word). That most of the population does see those models in the women's magazines as their fantasy group but that many of rame are in denial (as the touchie-feelies would put it).

My mistake is to presume a monolithic popular culture, one in which all eyes are on the top and individuals attempt to achieve that ultimate goal of becoming one of the idle rich. Thus the female will try to appear as sexually desirable as possible in the hope of securing as upscale a male as she can and the male will attempt to imitate those at the top of society so that the most sexually desirable females will desire them. Removing the sex angle, both males and females will do it just to have a nicer life.

However it appears that there are at least two overlapping groups, one of which is heavily represented among avid porn viewers and which lacks the ability or desire to see itself amid the luxury at the top of society's tree. A failure of imagination, perhaps? Earlier I suggested that you were slumming but It seems that with your pedestrian views of cars and desire not to see the perfect female, you place yourself firmly in this category. The intellectual end to be sure. (To avoid pejorative terms let's call this Group Two people.)

The other group representing the majority of the population (by a wide margin) rejects and despises porn and the denizens of the industry and much of your version of popular culture. It's (and my) only use for porn is in the context of what I referred to earlier as slumming. (And let's call this Group One people.)

(Maybe I should explain slumming. There's a very good movie recently released on video called Dreamlife of Angels (French, not porn, little sex, sad) which shows slumming quite clearly. It's basically the idea of the upscale male crossing to the wrong side of tracks and screwing the girls. He has no intent of establishing any relationship other than that of sex and since he bores quickly of them it can be quite devastating to the girl as in the suggested movie. It's a time-honored practice based on the principle that mutating genes produce good-looking women even at the bottom of society's heap and the male is really only interested in sex with good-looking women.)

Where they overlap is in youth where the hormonally-charged and rebellious male and the attention- and approval-seeking female often delve into the layers of crap at the bottom of society's barrel (porn, wrestling, monster trucks, fascination with little-known bad movies , etc.) Most of the time they grow out of it without too much damage.

You pointed to some rebellious dysfunctional people belonging to groups that I and most Group One people would not like to be in the same room with and you tried to include trivial and doubtless youthful indiscretions as being indicative of an overwhelming spread of tattoos among the young. I'll readily admit to having no interest whatsoever in popular music and (not that you brought it up) sports.

And while we're re-opening old wounds, I've been thinking about the apparent split between Torris's Utah college experiences and Steve (Essex9999)'s PA view (although he doesn't say I suspect it's Wharton). My own on-the-street view is of girls from NYU, Columbia, Pace and Brooklyn College and my on-the-job knowledge is of girls from business majors and from mainly Ivy League schools. Then I remembered that we have at least one suitcase pimp in the porn industry with a college degree from U. Miami IIRC. Probably others. Bingo! With college taking the role of senior high school, a degree from just any college is no longer an indication of middle class-ness.

Lattara, can you get over Kate Moss. I mention her because most models are not identified and she's the only relatively recent one I can name. It was some black poster who actually started the whole thing when I pointed out that his object of desire was a fat pig. He said something like "You must like skinny girls like Kate Moss" to which I replied "Who's Kate Moss?"

Similarly could you please stop with your accusation that I think every girl over 25 is over the hill. While 25 is an age at which most are starting to go downhill (if they were ever up to begin with) I do not maintain that every girl on her 25th birthday turns into a b'fuglie overnight. Vanessa Marcil and Lara Flynn Boyle are two I've recently commented on favorably and they're both over 30.

Fashion models generally are the epitome of female pulchritude otherwise they wouldn't be models. Group One females purchase these magazines and the fashions displayed therein in the hope of rendering themselves attractive to the upscale males they wish to consort with. If it didn't work, they wouldn't buy the magazines and the fashions wouldn't sell.

As to the gay connection, this is feminist codswallop usually emanating from females who have no chance of making it (the fat and the ugly) and want to change the rules. Same deal as the previous paragraph: if it didn't represent what Mr. Upscale wanted, Ms Desirous-of-linking-up-with-Mr-Upscale wouldn't go along.

The women's magazines have the advantage of not being connected to the sleaze of the porn and associated industries and therefore can attract female models using only the criteria of good looks. Hint: there are far more fashion models than there are female porn performers. As you go up the scale--stroke to Hustler to Playboy to Maxim to fashion magazines--the quality of the female improves. But there's not too much of a difference between Maxim and similar and the women's magazines so far. When they (Maxim) start showing pubic hair or men in the spreads, watch for the porn uglies and the tattoos to appear and the circulation to take a nosedive.

Luke: In response to the misogynist lowlife scum hetero males that post on your site such as Pat Riley, it is not necessary for women to have supermodel looks, fortunately feminism has granted me the opportunity to make it on my own through my own abilities and my own intellect that I don't have to worry about competing for "upscale men" as he puts it. I am perfectly capable of success on my own without a man. In fact I have no need or use for a man at all.

Rumdar writes Luke: Luke... Got this e mail from a buddy who usually only dates Asians and Black women. Recently he met a Jewish gal and decided to give it one more go. He sent me this E which I have abbreviated to protect the innocent. This missive has had yours truly and my buds, who are familiar with the East Coast Jewish scene guffawing for days......

So ****** is out! She had flabby, saggy tits and body. She was a good blow job but a bad f---, no movement or noise. But worst of all, she is annoying. No wonder she never let me spend more that 3 hours with her at a time. My uncle met her once when we went to brunch and he called her a "drey kup" which in yiddish means she'll drive you crazy with one thing after another and she did,"Oh can we just stop here a minute? Could you just drive me over there so I can drop something off? Do you have any red wine that's better than this one? Why did you buy me a frog, (I brought her a green enameled frog jewelry box, very pretty) does this symbolize something, like I look like a frog? Next time buy me something better like perfume, not a frog. Can we stop at ******* and pick up breakfast for my son?(**, lives with ex-husband), Did you enjoy my company? (asked twice), Do you have shorts and a T-shirt so I can go swimming in the ocean? You have wrinkles around your eyes, why do you have wrinkles, the skin on your body is so soft? Right here (points to my belly) you have to lose a little. (talking about herself) I have to lose 10 pounds (25 if it's an ounce). You'll call me or I'll call you? (me- "whatever").

Have fun with the Jewish chicks buddy. They are all yours..................rum

Luke: I think Jewish chicks are great. The only problem for me has been that the ones I've wanted most have not wanted me. I don't measure up to their high standards.

Whatever Happened To Leanna Hart?

Pete: Did you ever do an interview w/ Leanna?? She seemed to get very little exposure as a star though she gets points for taking her mother to a video shoot. Now that takes balls!! Is she still going to make more movies or is she now living the typical rich, idyllic life of lots of So Cal wives who don't lift a finger unless it's at their manicurist's. Is she doing any dancing at all & what happened to Eric Hunter who I thought she was hooked up with when I watched Couples # 1??

Luke: As of a couple of weeks ago, she was living on a boat, supported by a rich dentist. She looks very skinny and tired. She's out of porn and stripping.

Banker Spanker Dissed By Wanker

Curious writes: Dear Heather "Spanker Banker" Barron, You do not know me, but I am about to save your life metaphorically and perhaps literally. The words you are about to read or ignore in the following paragraphs may seem cruel and callous, but the truth frequently is.

You will not become a famous porn star for the following reasons:

1) You are 31 years old. You are young for a banker, but geriatric for a porn starlet. I would absolutely have sex with you, but I would not pay $5 to rent a video of you having sex with Ron Jeremy.

2) You are only marginally attractive. You are hot for a banker, but barely passable as a fluffer in a gang bang. Steve Hirsch would not date you so a Vivid contact is out of the question.

3) Your breasts are nice, but painfully average. They are not C's. They are not firm no matter how you try to fold your arms to make them appear so. They seem to have the consistency of pan cake batter.

4) You are not sexually kinky enough. Spanking? Sorry, that is not even remotely kinky in the world of porn. What is kinky at this moment in porn? Gang bangs. Bukkake. Golden showers. Ass gapes. Vomiting. Simulated rape. Sound sexy?

5) You are too intelligent. Reading your website you come off as a bit naive, but reasonably smart. I pray far too smart to let strangers ejaculate on your face in the hopes that it will encourage men to throw sweaty dollar bills at you when you dance in dingy strip clubs. Ms. Barron do yourself and those who really love you a big favor. Pull down your web site. Burn Jim South's phone number. Move back to Boston. Live a long, happy, and productive life. Good luck Ms. Barron.

ps If I have failed to deter you in your descent into XXX hell please remember this one last piece of advice: f---ING Luke F-rd WILL NOT ADVANCE YOUR PORN CAREER ONE BIT NO MATTER WHAT HE TELLS YOU ! !

Luke: Shut up, Curious.

Louis Scorbick writes: Luke- While I admit to being a devious Jew (and a REAL Jew unlike some pretend wannabes who convert to get chicks), I do not work for Vivid, although in a related industry, but am surprised at Heather Barron's huffy response. In case she hasn't noticed, she has chosen to work in a visceral industry. Judgments are made purely by physical looks most of the time. Whether one "makes themselves sound like an ass" for rating a girl's looks in porn is the heighth of silliness. Sure the surgery might turn Heather into a Vivid goddess. However I doubt it. And why the suckup, Luke? Trying to add number 4.5 to your belt notches?

I don't think her looks make the grade. However Heather is welcome to come over and audition for me in person, at which point I might change my mind.

George writes: Just out of curiosity I went and looked at Heather Barron's website. She calls herself attractive? She better go take a good, long look in the mirror. And as for someone calling her body s---, and her agreeing, well I agree with both of them. If she thinks she is going to make herself into a "star" with the help of a plastic surgeon, I sure hope she has the keys to Fort Knox or wherever it is the American government is keeping all the gold these days. And as for the "rates" she has on her site, she must be joking. Any guy with half a brain and loose money to throw around sure wouldn't be getting his moneys worth spending it on her. How many people does she need to tell her that she isn't porn material? Anyone can tell she couldn't hold a candle to almost all the girls in porn now.

Heather replies: It doesn't take a model to be a player in the adult film industry. Business boys business.

Tabetha: Hi Luke! I always browse through your website for a good update on the adult world. So I thought I'd say 'Happy Birthday!' to you from the XXXeZone.com crew and myself, hope you had a good one! P.S. I've spoken to Heather Barron on several occasions and have only one thing to say to your fine gentlemen readers, "Hell hath no fury..." The world is full of surprises and I think you'll like some of hers...

Chaim Amalek writes Luke: You have to promise to pimp KJ out to me when she visits in June. I want her to come with me to Shul so that we can daven together at a liberal temple, study the laws of ritual purity together at my talmud class, sing union songs at the Workmen's Circle, the works. But please first ask her where in her menstral cycle she is. I need to know.

Luke: Kendra says she will go to shul with you etc... She wants you to know if you will be ashamed to pronounce your love for your favorite porn star during synagogue? Kendra will menstruate again in 2-3 weeks.

Chaim: Of course I will proclaim my love for her in shul - to be specific, I will declare that there can be no other porn star for me, ever. And lest you doubt me, I did, after all, say that it would be a liberal shul. A very liberal shul.

PS Was it not spooky that the ADL responded so quickly to M South's antisemitic diatribe?

PPS When you go to Israel, ask people which country they will flee to should arab armies come rolling across their shallow borders. Be sure to offer refuge to any hot chicks you meet. My guess is that the lion's share will choose America (which includes Canada), and many of them will pick LA. In fact, in twenty or thirty years, LA might become a predominately jewish city! (That means lots more players in porn, of course, looking for christian flesh to sell.)

On behalf of the ADL (Amalekite Defense Legion) and all Amalek, I wish you a happy birthday. You are now closer to being 50 than you are to age 18. May this be the year you make some Jewess your bride, so that NEVER AGAIN will you find yourself at a Jewish Singles Event! Celebrate this day with number 4x, whatever you are up to. And burn those videos!

Would KJ be willing to go with me to the Brooklyn Mikva prior to our date at Katz's deli? In the event that the sight of all those hard kosher salamis that she will see there inflames her passions for me to the point that we both retire to the bathroom, I want to be sure that everything is kosher, and not just the pastrami.

Luke: Yes. I'm going to Israel, Cairo, Egypt and the Greek islands in July. Any advice folks?

Brandy writes: Travel under your Austrailian passport to those locales, NOT American. (Okay everyone, quit shushing me!)

Luke: I just heard studies that say the ten best states for SAT scores are cold and that intelligence diminishes as you get closer to the equator. True?

Chaim writes: Well, actually, the other variable that you could look at is the racial composition of the states. These cold states (North Dakota, Montana etc.) have lots of Caucasians and few Negroes, a people who, either due to circumstance, culture, or genetic endowment, tend not to score all that well on tests that depend on intelligence. You could also discuss crime or HIV rates in that context as well, but then you would be vilified for it by the jewish media, or at least you would be if you were important enough to vilify.

I have been remiss in not writing about JD from Baltimore, who disses Pierce as lacking the intellect or equanimity to discuss issues of race and religion. Please ask JD if he, as a public figure (i.e., not writing under a pseudonym) who has a pretty good gig working for The Man in Baltimore, is in any position to seriously discuss all sides of these issues. I think that he is not, for the same sorts of reasons that a preacher in a fundamentalist church that believes in creation science who wants to keep his job is not in any position to argue on behalf of evolutionary theory, no matter the evidence and no matter his personal views.

Regarding your "mission" to the near east, do Arab Americans have missions that take them both to Cairo and to Israel too, or is this just a jewish thing?

Luke: I notice that harsh racial reasoning is much more common among New Yorkers than Los Angelenos. I wonder why. And no, I don't think Arab Americans have missions to Cairo and Israel.

Chaim: Talk to some Korean-Americans in LA who survived the riots, then get back to us with what they had to say. By the way, LA strikes me as being the most culturally segregated big city in America. Blacks, Whites, and Mexicans - each group living separate lives.

Nikki Tyler In Toronto

AJB writes on RAME: A couple nights back I checked out Nikki Tyler dancing at the Deja Vu club in Toronto. I've seen her twice before (once, paired with Jenna Jameson). BTW, before her show one of the house dancers did something amusing. She had a radio controlling toy truck with a small dildo hooked on to the front bumper. She'd lie down on the stage and spread her pussy or ass cheeks as a patron tried to remote control the truck into the girl's sweet spots. Now why the hell did I never think of this?

Anyway, Nikki came out wearing a marvelous custume. Kind of an Arabian harem girl get-up, a shimmering web like diaphanous f----me outfit with outrageously high silver platform shoes. The show itself was relatively unremarkable: no stunts or cool s---. But she was pleasant and looking fine. Her body is really buff with a flawless ass and belly. I mean, you cannot see one little wrinkle or a chubby dimple. Just smooth and delectable all over.

I see lots of fairly fit, attractive people around, just ordinary people who look good. But when you see some of these porn girls, it's like getting to see a famous work of art. A body like Nikki Tyler's is just that extra level above all us mere mortals. And, consequently, that's why I find it fascinating to see how porn starlets look once their older. What is Nikki Tyler going to look like when she's 65? These are the esoteric thoughts floating through my cluttered mind as I watch her show.

One moment I liked was when a waitress and a stripper came up to the edge of the stage with money stuffed in their mouths (or coupons maybe). Nikki gave them some sloppy kisses as she teased the money out of their mouths. I heard her mutter some caution to the girls about "it's illegal to go too far" or something. I think this Deja Vu club's management tells all the visiting porn girls that they'll get busted if they do anything more than rubbing tit into a guy's face. Boring.

Nikki Tyler had a nice little patch of blonde pussy hair. Her labia were nice and meaty. Her tits were a bit floppy but well shaped, not too stiff. I had an odd impression of her though. Because she's tall and muscular and natural blonde, she has this swedish meatball vibe. I kept seeing her on top of some Alpine-like snowy mountain top yodelling "Ricola!". Does anyone know if she has a nordic ancestry? Just curious. Anyway, it was an okay show but nothing mind blowing.

After the show, a guy sitting next to me asked me to deliver a letter to Nikki if I got a chance to do a Polaroid with her. As it turned out, Nikki didn't come out for pictures (which is okay, I've already got her and Jenna in my photo album). So I took the guy's letter home with me. It was hilarious. I'm going to re-produce it below with only the name and phone number changed. Too bad I can't reproduce the tacky font he used in his print out.

Dear Nikki: I think you are the best. Nobody does it better. You are sex incarnate; it's as if when God had sex in mind he made you. No other star has been able to turn me on more than you. If you hadn't guessed I'm a terrible writer but I'm also a very big fan of yours. If your ever in town and need a tour of the place give me a call at (416) XXX-YYYY.

Analysis: This guy's odds are about 100,000 to one. He may as well have stuffed this note in a bottle and thrown it into the ocean. Especially appealing was the religious fanatic overtones. Check out his e-mail header. "JChrist". Yeah, right. Hey Nikki, you wanna date a guy who barely disguises the FACT that he is Jesus Christ? No doubt God has plans for Nikki and this freak. And why'd I have to be fated to deliver this message from Jesus Christ -- visiting a strip club no less! -- to Nikki Tyler, Goddess of Sex? Anyway, I guess I'll forward the letter to Nikki's fan club or something otherwise I might be struck by lightening or something.

Tera Patrick On Playboys 411

Ridley99 writes on RAME: This past wednseday Playboy Tv had a 411 marathon, the live call in show that features Crystal Knight, Flower and Tera Patrick ( as the internet girl, oh my yessss) I taped the shows as i slept and viewed them on the next day. The show that was the premier show of the series was really hot, it was about Anal.

Alexandra Silk, ( the porn star and Baliffe on Sex Court ) appears and gets down and dirty with Tera, sticking a dildo up her ass, hey, its playboy TV and you can't see too much, it could have been a work, but knowing how Nasty Alexandra is and going by the expression on Tera face, i'd say Alexandra went for the gold. Is this Tera only anal? Tera also is analed by Flower, who then tries to put the dildo in Tera's mouth, there is also a scene where Flower wears a strap on dildo and Tera sucks on it, how come its okay to suck on a dildo on playboy but not okay to suck on a real dick.

Still this was far and away the best of the 411 i have seen, as usuall it was the premier episode, everything always starts off great and then goes south. An extra bonus, in between the 411 episodes there was an episode of Sex Court, that featured the lovely Kenya in a skin tight white dress yum,yum,yum. Still can't figure out the Helmet Cam man, the dude has a show that features beautiful porn stars on either side of him, and all he does is talk. How Helmet man grab them wimen and get busy.

Who's Luke Fooling?

Amused writes: Luke complains about lack of female companionship. Luke runs an article on Israeli prostitution ring. Luke decides to go on "Singles Mission" to Israel. Coincidence?

Facts on Israeli Prostitution

There has been a steady increase in the numbers of foreign women involved in prostitution who are arrested for illegal stays in Israel and who are detained before being deported to their home-countries; in over 95% of the cases, they were from the former USSR. The average time these women spend in prison is 50 days. The women themselves are supposed to pay for their expenses to leave Israel, but when their resources are inadequate, the Ministry of Interior finances their deportation from a special budget. (Authorities, Neve Tirza women's prison, CEDAW Report, 8 April 1997)

Traffickers and pimps earned US$50,000 - 100,000 a year from each prostituted woman, resulting in a US$450 million sex industry. ("A modern form of slavery," The Jerusalem Post, 13 January 1998)

1,500 Russian and Ukrainian trafficked women have been deported from 1995-1997. (Michael Specter, "Traffickers’ New Cargo: Naive Slavic Women," New York Times, 11 January 1998)

Russian women are bought and sold by pimps in Israel for prices ranging from US$5,000 to $20,000. (Police sources, "'Invisible' Women Shown In Russia's Demographics," Martina Vandenberg, St. Petersburg Times, 13 October 1997)

A small brothel with ten women can make up to 750,000 shekels a month (US $215,000). (Michael Specter, "Traffickers’ New Cargo: Naive Slavic Women," New York Times, 11 January 1998)

Women trafficked from Eastern Europe, were stripped and sold naked as slaves to Tel Aviv traders for US$500-1,000. Smuggling, fraudulent documents, collaboration between police and brothel owners are involved. There are routine brutal beatings and sexual abuse. (New York Times 11 January 1998)

The non-profit Israel Women's Network estimates that 70% of prostituted women in Tel Aviv, Israel's commercial center, come from the former Soviet republics, and that about 1,000 women are brought into Israel illegally each year. At any one time, as many as 100 women may be awaiting deportation in Neve Tirza women's prison near Tel Aviv's Ben-Gurion airport, a prison spokeswoman said.

A poll by the Women's Network showed 44% of Israelis believed all Russian immigrant women provided sexual services for pay. Illegal immigrants in Israel, who are mostly Russian, are often stereotyped as having brought crime and prostitution while exploiting Israeli laws enabling anyone with a Jewish grandparent to immigrate.(Elisabeth Eaves, "Israel not the promised land for Russian sex slaves," Reuters, 23 August 1998)

Official Response and Action While trafficked women are frequently arrested as illegal workers, the men who brought them to Israel -- many of whom are Israeli citizens -- are not. Justice Ministry spokeswoman Etty Eshed said the government would think about making legal changes to address trafficking in the "near future" but had no date or plan for doing so. (Elisabeth Eaves, "Israel not the promised land for Russian sex slaves," Reuters, 23 August 1998)

Police in Israel say they are powerless to stop the flow of trafficked women until the laws change. "They (trafficked women) are very much afraid to come to the police and complain, so the police really can't do anything," said spokeswoman Linda Menuhin. "The problem is there is no law against trafficking people, and no law against prostitution." Rachel Benziman, legal adviser to the Israel Women's Network, said there are a variety of crimes -- rape, abduction, battery, deceit and theft -- which the authorities rarely bother to prosecute for, even though they have the power to do so. "It's not a problem of finding the right section in the criminal code. It is more a problem of finding the women who will testify and finding the motivation. When it comes to drug dealing, the police don't wait for someone to come into their office and say they have found drugs. They look for it. We expect them to do the same thing for the trafficking of women -- but they don't," she said. (Elisabeth Eaves, "Israel not the promised land for Russian sex slaves," Reuters, 23 August 1998)

Luke Gets Mail

Tony writes: I shed no tears for Jake(wannabe pimp-gangster)Steed. He's a jerk and suffers from a bi-racial identity crisis. If the report is true its been a long time comin' and well-deserved. On the other hand if the report on Jack Hammer is true in geneross.com is true he has my sympathy and support. He's been trying and I can tell from this distance that it has been difficult. Good luck Hammer. Oh yeah I'm black.

I need to correct myself asap about what I said about Jake Steed & Jack Hammer. Both of those guys are reaping the harvest of there previous deeds and reputations. Mr.Hammer wanted to be known as the enforcer of porn, well, if you want to be known as a badass don't be surprised if someone uses that against you. Mr.Steed is just a lost man. I don't think he knows how troubled he is.

Pornography of Wealth

Chaim writes: Luke, the attached opinion piece by Nicholas Von Hoffman of the New York Observor has nothing to do with porn. I forward it to you for your reading pleasure simply because it so exactly describes the zeitgeist (hope I am spelling that correctly) of the age here, where the worship of the rich and or famous is the idolatry of the age. The last two paragraphs are so good that they are worth posting on your web site for the benefit of all the bnai Luke who fancy themselves disaffected jewish intellectuals. Is Los Angeles this bad? My impression is that it is not.

Luke: Here's an excerpt from Nicholas: Beside the political considerations in the transformation of the American system into the rule of the rich, there are cultural and moral factors. When the rich stay in the background and flaunt it so the rest of us don’t see it, they have their place and their uses, but now, like a vermicular insect that lives in the ground and corkscrews up into light and air in 100-year cycles, the rich have emerged again and are swarming over the trees and the rooftops of automobiles, covering every surface, crawling over each other, entwining, sliding, an aureate mass heaving, swaying, climbing and sliming. It’s been a full century since the golden calf crowd has so dominated daily life in America. Again Dives is courted, made way for, deferred to and fussed over and glorified to the exclusion of all but movie stars and athletes who are, of course, as rich as the ordinary, run-of-the mill business richie. And in Manhattan! It has become an island of modern maharajahs trailed by their processions of body servants, couturiers, accountants, drug pushers, personal trainers, closet arrangers, chefs, plastic surgeons, architects, lawyers, interior designers, head waiters, pimps, estate planners, therapists, jewelers, flatterers and flunkies. We may not be saddled with a class system like the one the Brits have, but the behavior of Manhattanites in a society in which money orders status, opinion and rank of every kind leaves not much to choose from between the two places. Money corrupts and lots of money corrupts lots as the bowers compete with the scrapers for stock tips and other gratuities in a city now divided between the purse-proud and the slobbering, envious masses who, in the midst of such show and wealth, have lost their way, their values and their dignity.

Luke: This does not apply to me and my friends. We all make a fine income but status for us is more related to traits of character and depth. But then again, we're religious. We march to the beat of a different drummer. Our primary goals are to be right with God, our religion, our religious community, and the best ideals of America and humanity. We compete in areas of personal growth, kindness, depth, Torah learning, etc...

Chaim: I thought so. One of the unsung benefits of faith in god and all that is that it does provide a measure of safe harbor from American culture and its unqualified adoration of the Golden Calf. Not that the disproportionately jewish captains of American culture would ever acknowledge that. By the way, I took a look at that Boston Banker chick, and if she is only 31 or 32 then I am 14. She looks like she is a lot closer to 40 than to 30. And I simply do not buy her story. Do you?

Hmm, seeing how you added some psychobable from Dudley, why is it he couldn't answer his own question with regard to me? I'd like to see this dude's alleged diploma.

Recovered Childhood Sex Traumas

Dudley Moore writes: I'd like to propose a new theory of Repressed and Recovered Childhood Sexual Traumas that represents a totally new development in Freudian Psychoanalytic Theory.

As you know, Freud first sided with his patients when they told him they had all had been sexually abused by their fathers, then later in his work he changed his interpretation of these recovered traumatic memories to say that the children had merely fantasized them as instinctively and universally repressed "sexual wishes" for their parents that all children naturally have.

I'd like to develop this idea, and offer a more complete and satisfying explanation, explaining explicitly what is really happening in cases of recovered childhood memories of sexual trauma.

First, a disclaimer. Let me say that I would blanketly accept anyone's personal testimony that they had been sexually abused. I do not believe victims make up any of these charges. The new theory I am offering merely expounds on the universality of this phenomenon. In other words, why does every patient have these distressing memories? Where do they come from?

Here's my new development: What patients are really recovering is "stranger fear", which consists of a feeling of being lifted up in the air by their caretaker (this is experienced sensually and erotically by the infant as a feeling of suspense/suspension) and being given over to a "stranger" to be held as a baby!!!

The "stranger" can be anyone, including relatives or even the child's father if he doesn't normally or often hold the child, and is thus interpreted as a "stranger." The feeling of suspense/suspension in being lifted up is psycho-somatically and instinctively interpreted by the infant as "suspicion coupled with suspension" when it is thereby combined with the instinctive and universal "stranger fear" common to high reactive(overstimulated, easily stressed) infants.

"Suspension" and "suspicion" are closely paired and merged unconsciously in the infant's experience, although this now seems uncanny to us as adults, since we don't remember any conscious reason for creating words so close together in sound! Any yet, there is a profound unconscious, absolutely real psycho-somatic connection between suspension and suspicion, which is manifested in just this way in the form of stranger fear.

But why would this feeling of suspension and being picked up to be held be interpreted sensually/erotically by the infant? The glaringly visible, yet universally repressed reason is not only the "symbiosis" with the mother's breast as detailed by Freud, but the following, which will seem far more shocking, horrifying and sexually explicit than anything Freud ever suggested. In fact, Freud did not go far enough!

The reason all infants have an intense, unconscious erotic reaction to their primary caretaker, is that, as infants, the genital areas of our bodies are disproportionately much, much larger than they are later in life as adults. This means infants experience a great deal more direct genital stimulation when held and pressed against the bodies of their caretakers than anyone, even today, would consciously admit.

Watch how adults hold their infants and small children, and you'll see the enormous amount of (unintended) direct contact that is made with their large genital and anal areas. This direct contact is, again, intensely stimulating for the infant/child, and so is the enormous amount of direct genital and anal stimulation afforded the infant by the wiping and changing of diapers!

We all experienced this sort of direct genital and anal contact by our caregivers. Each of us has merely incorporated this stimulation into our own psycho-somatic sense of our bodies as well as into our own unconscious sense of bodily sensuality and eroticism.

Therefore, being picked up and held by a caretaker is an extremely powerful and very real experience in sensuality and eroticism for every infant/child through repeated accidental, direct genital stimulations and through an enormous amount of repeated conditioning.

So that when the infant, who now experiences being picked up and held as sensual and erotic, is now handed to or picked up by a stranger, be it an unfamiliar relative or parent, or a genuine stranger, the intensely conditioned erotic stimulation is distressingly paired with stranger fear and interpreted as sexual trauma, which it truly is( that is, it is truly sexually traumatic for the infant).

Later in life, the child correctly and unconsciously feels the aftereffects of sexual traumas inflicted in this way, and assumes that they must therefore have been sexually abused as children, since they believe they had to be old enough at the presumed time of incidence to have assembled coherent memories of what happened to them.

Dreams are one way we all remember these traumatic events and that they eventually become conscious. The reason is that our understanding as infants and children did not allow for full conscious processing nor understanding of these traumatic feelings. Therefore our memories, as expressed in dreams, may be a more successful attempt to explain unsettling, frightening psycho-somatic feelings we could not incorporate consciously as infants, such as traumatic erotic contact with "strangers".

Again, this only explains the universal phenomenon of recovered memories of childhood sexual trauma. I am not dismissing any individual's personal testimony of sexual abuse.

Thank you, Mr. Ford, for providing a forum for me to offer what I believe is a new development in psychoanalytic theory for the first time on your site. Even though l-keford.com is an obscure source, I believe that very many of the people in your audience are probable survivors of real (again, not imaginary) sexual abuse, and may therefore benefit the most by discussing any remembered traumatic events.
