The Toy

Today’s choice was the Siri, Lelo’s most powerful vibrator to date. I bought this vibe a couple years ago because [...]]]> It’s Day 2 of the 31 Day No Hitachi Challenge. I worked from home today which meant I had a little more time to spend and a little less on my mind. Does that equal success?

The Toy

Today’s choice was the Siri, Lelo’s most powerful vibrator to date. I bought this vibe a couple years ago because I didn’t own any Lelo vibes and it felt like a right of passage I was missing out on. I owned the Ella dildo and loved it, but Lelo is best known for their luxury vibrators. I had to see what I was missing out on. In that time I used it once and decided that it wasn’t powerful enough. I had eyed my Hitachi with disdain for making it impossible to enjoy this toy so it seemed like a natural pick for the challenge.

The Fodder

The original plan for today was to watch My Own Master which, while I haven’t seen ALL of it, I had declared to be THE BEST PORNO EVER MADE. Because if there’s one thing in this world that could get me aroused enough it would definitely be the first scene in this flick. This is where I experienced deep horrible painful disappointment. The disc was nowhere to be found and I concluded that I must’ve left it in my old desktop which I gave to Best Buy for recycling. I don’t know if I will ever recover from this pain.

So I went searching through my other porn and found one I hadn’t watched yet, but promised great things: Tristan Taormino’s Expert Guide to Female Orgasms. I trust Tristan to provide me with hot sex and she did deliver. I watched the scene with Dylan Ryan and Mr. Marcus. Now I must admit that since I’ve moved to California and met many of my favorite porn stars it’s gotten a little weird to watch them fuck. I’m not friends with Dylan, but I have partied with her and spent some time chatting with her. And for how amazing she is in porn, she’s like a goddess in real life. I don’t know that I’ve ever met a fiercer femme. So it’s a little weird, but I worked past that for the sake of science*.

Dylan’s pleasure and orgasms were intense thanks to Mr. Marcus, a bit of lube, an njoy Eleven, and a Hitachi Magic Wand. The latter of which you can imagine put a bit of a damper on my experience. Jealous!

Thoughts

I spent about 50 minutes masturbating today, starting slow and working my way up. I did not cum, but I did come close. There is a very intense few minutes between Dylan and Mr. Marcus that facilitated getting me very close. I identified with Dylan so hard: her moaning, her movements, it felt like that could be me. However, to get that close I did have to use a dildo. The Siri just did not provide me with the kind of power that I’m used to. And actually, if we’re being honest here, my clit never felt all that close to orgasm. My g-spot was ready to pull it out, but needed a little extra oomph in the clit department to push me over the edge. It never happened. And by the end I felt a little sick, but I didn’t have the hard clit spasming like I had yesterday which was a relief.

I do feel like my libido is pickup up a bit overall so that’s good news. I’m not frustrated yet, but there’s always tomorrow.

*Yeah, yeah, not really science. I feel like I have to make that disclaimer since I’m married to a scientist.

Scar 13 in [...]]]> I’m in a porny mood. I’m not sure exactly what that means, but I do feel the urge to share. I get porn in my inbox pretty often and I rarely have time to look at it, but today I have decided to scour through it to see what is good to share. Enjoy!

Scar 13 in the desert with nothing but a parasol and rope. God I love a round booty!

April Flores sticking candy canes where they really shouldn’t go.

Bunny rings in the New Year.

Billy Castro and Arabelle Raphael don’t let their language barrier get in the way of one helluva hot sex session! These are pics from an episode we watched in our last porno party on twitter.

Speaking of Billy Castro, here he is on Heavenly Spire.

A bit of roleplay between these two ladies leads to some tying up. What can I say? I love a woman in a pinstripe suit.

Lizzy Kaelar is one of those gorgeous curvy librarian types. Rawr!

But back to that pinstripe suit thing, Michelle Aston and Aiden Starr put on a super hot show in this photoset.

Maxine Holloway and Greta are two very beautiful femmes who have some hot strap-on sex.

Two of my favorite performers, Madison Young and Danny Wylde, get a bit rough when they get it on.

More hot femmes with a strap-on.

My current favorite porn performer, Tina Horn, straps on just to drink wine.

I hope you enjoyed these as much as I did!

Here’s a snippet of the interview:

GJ: [...]]]> After a month off, I had the pleasure of interviewing Coyote Days, producer for Good Releasing, for my Ethical Pornographer column. I also got to meet the lovely lady in person at a couple of Good Vibrations‘ events which I wrote about for MySexProfessor: Lesbo Retro and IXFF (amazing videos included).

Here’s a snippet of the interview:

GJ: How is Good Releasing different from other porn production companies out there, both mainstream and indie?

CD: Our films are incredibly authentic. This is the sex people are having and in many films they are having it not only how but with who they want. Our films vary – from Queer DIY to high art visionary erotic explorations – and there is an range of directors, models and visions. The one commonality is that the directors and stars of each are showing their authentic sexual selves. There’s exploration of vision and some incredibly authentic chemistry-filled sex. We work with incredible directors and models – some who this is their first/only time on camera and some who shoot every week or more. All this combined creates a body of work expressing authentic sexuality and eroticism that speak to a variety of communities in a very real way.

I think there is a great synergy between what good releasing is doing and what some other production companies are doing. Combined we are offering new genres and new categories of porn which is super exciting to me both as a pornographer, as a queer and as a feminist.

Read the rest.

I find it especially difficult to keep up with the blog when there are lots of new things going on [...]]]> Wow, so apparently I’ve been neglecting my blog. That’s sad. I try hard and do so well for awhile, posting regularly – usually several times per week. But life ebbs and flows and so does blog writing.

I find it especially difficult to keep up with the blog when there are lots of new things going on in my life. It takes awhile to recapture the balance of it all. Working for MyPleasure, writing for MySexProfessor and PopMyCherryReview, moving and settling into my new home in the Bay Area, and soon writing even more. It can be difficult to constantly come up with original content especially when you never intended to be a writer. Life is kind of funny like that. Speaking of writing, did you see that one of my posts from MySexProfessor was featured on Jezebel? That was pretty exciting.

There’s lots of fun things coming up and I have yet to decide whether or not I will write about them – I guess we shall see after they happen. First, I will be attending two days of IXFF: I will be at Lesbo Retro on the 22nd and the Competition and after party (and maybe pre-party) on the 23rd. If you see me say hi. I’m especially excited about this because Coyote Days, producer at Good Releasing, will be there and she said she’s excited to meet me. The goal of having awesome sex positive friends in the community is coming together. Did I mention that I met Madison Young at her gallery recently? Unfortunately, I’m really easily start struck and tend to just be shy and a bit nerdy when in the presence of awesomeness.

Then on the 26th there’s Folsom Street Fair which the wife and I will be attending. I’ve never been to anything like it since I’m from the midwest and all. I’m sure I will be shocked, surprised, turned on, and totally smitten.

On October 1st I will be at the NYC Sex Bloggers Calendar release party representing MyPleasure. This will be the first time a company I work for is sending me somewhere. It’s pretty cool and I hope to meet lots of fun people. And of course if you see me, please say hi. I tend to be a bit shy.
