“The Starlet Sheet” – A Porn Lover’s Thoughtful (and Explicit) Data Goldmine
Congrats and praise for a fun new porn blog: The Starlet Sheet is a just-launched project I’ve watched grow: JImmy, the creator and datamining nerd behind it, is definitely what you’d call a “superfan” when it comes to porn starlets.

“An Open Invitation” Porn Trailer and Gallery Exclusive: With Advice on Non-Monogamy
Director Ilana Rothman’s An Open Invitation is porn for lovers. And for everyone else.

This Week In The War On Watching Porn
This week, the war on porn hit new levels thanks to anti-porn feminists Gail Dines and Mary Anne Layden. I know the title of this post sounds a little extreme, but looking at the landscape, it’s really starting to feel this way. The war on porn is the war on watching porn, more than ever.…
Hot Boy Thursday: Jack Hammer
Meeting porn performers in real life is dodgy. It can be lame, sad, scary, exciting and awe-inspiring, arousing, fierce and inspiring, a curiosity of plastic surgery disaster… any number of experiences. Like meeting anyone who does a lot of on-camera work, it’s seldom what you think it will be. So when I was at the…
