Hungry for Fifty Shades of Grey

Fifty Shades of GreyErotic fiction has long been the butt of jokes and insults slung by the literati and pornographers, both. So imagine author E.L. James’ surprise when her erotic novel Fifty Shades of Grey raced up the bestseller list. The author, known to her husband of 20 years as Erika Leonard, claims to have had no inkling that what started as a BDSM-infused piece of Twilight fanfiction would soon become so popular she’d decide to change the names Bella Swan and Edward Cullen to Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey, move into print-on-demand publishing, and be courting offers from Hollywood bigwigs intent on making the Fifty Shades trilogy, which also includes Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed, the biggest thing since Twilight and The Hunger Games blew away box office records.

Describing herself as a shy mother of two who started writing what would evolve into the Fifty Shades Trilogy during something of a midlife crisis, James has apparently done what nobody expected would ever happen: she brought BDSM fiction into the mainstream. Telling the story of a recent college graduate (Steele) and her evolving relationship with a billionaire Seattle industrialist (Grey), Fifty Shades has some feminists all in a tizzy over its apparent willingness to place a naive, “innocent” of “independent spirit” (according to the author’s site) in the stranglehold of a domineering, manipulative, and downright abusive alpha male figure. Others apparently couldn’t care less about the sexual politics of the tale and are just along for the allegedly quite thrilling ride, a ride that involves repeated BDSM sessions in Grey’s “Red Room of Pain.” Twilight fans will surely notice some lasting similarities between the gazillion-selling vampire series, right down to the physical damage the male characters “love” inflicts on his victim… sorry, his “partner”. Whether or not Fifty Shades will attract the same degree of controversy as the novels on which it was originally based remains to be seen. So too does the question of whether the novels will turn a new audience into rabid erotic fiction devotees and bring them closer to the erotic artistry with which so many pornographers make their living. After all, it’s all sex (or something similar), isn’t it?

When the trilogy reaches your local cineplex, possibly starring Alexander Skarsgard or Ian Somerhalder who’ve both expressed interest in playing Grey, will you be standing in line waiting to see how the Red Room of Pain translates to the big screen?

Ten Thousand Little Piggies

MrPinksAs I was kicking around YouTube the other day, taking in a few slowed-down clips of K-Pop girl groups’ dance routines, videos of French late-sixties model, actress, and singer, Zouzou, as well as some infuriatingly slow DIY computer maintenance tutorials, I came upon a ten-minute, one-shot, discreetly-captured voyeuristic celebration of, of all things, the female foot. More specifically, the Miami-living Cuban-American female foot captured at “the local electronics store”. Complete with insta-hiphop backing soundtrack and lengthy explanation of the circumstances surrounding the camera-phone shooting, the producer of said video clearly wanted to share his fondness for the lower-limbed stabilizers and perambulators of the human body. And, after a brief search, you’ll see it’s clear the gentleman that shot and uploaded “Cute Latina Mom at the local electronics store” is far from alone.

Possibly due to its banning of overtly and explicitly sexual content, YouTube seems to have become a haven for non-nude “stripteases”, workout videos, and foot worshipping fetishists who’ll do almost anything to capture footage of the female foot in its natural state. Shooting women largely without their knowledge, the foot-fans of YouTube has created a communal archive of thousands upon thousands upon thousands of videos showing naked and barely-covered feet wriggling, twitching, rubbing against each other, and even just walking. Not being a foot fetishist myself, I don’t really understand why some folks seem to lust so feverishly after such a basically non-sexual body part, but for those that do, YouTube seems the place to be if you’re ok with the more mild variations on adult foot fetishism produced by users like kcknowsbest, blahfeet, and MsFootShow.

As always, if you want something a little more risque, why not head to Mr. Pink’s and find out if Hot Legs & Feet, Footsie Babes, or any of the other valuable foot-focused porn sites we’ve covered are worth your time and money. Although, I must say, if you’re dedicated a foot fetishist enough to be reading this blog, our higher-ranking sites will definitely put a smile on your dial.

The Chubbiest Show in Vegas

BBW FanFestCome July, chubby chasers can finally relax a little because the greatest BBW performers in adult entertainment will all be gathered in one convenient location: BBW FanFest 2012. The invited plump and sexy plus-sized performers, which include Kelly Shibari and Bunny de la Cruz, will head to the party capital of the USA, Las Vegas, for a three day celebration of all things erotically oversized. There’s plenty of fun stuff planned for the event, too, including a trade show (complete with a BDSM dungeon), seminars, dance parties, a strip poker tournament featuring BBW models, “exhibitionism for the shy”, and workshops on Facesitting and Chest Sitting, Photographing the Big Beautiful Body, Positioning Your Big Girl, as well as multiple model Q&A sessions and general sexually-charged frivolity.

If you’re a BBW admirer who really wants to indulge in a little or a lot of half-drunken carousing across the floors of the Tuscany Suites and Hotel, who’s aching to have Kelly Shibari, Desiree Devine, or Sydney Screams’ kiss your cheek and sign a photo for you, this is a chance unlike any other to fulfill your largest, weightiest fantasies.

More information on BBW FanFest 2012, which runs July 13th to 15th, can be found at the events official website.

(Well, everything except what delicious treats to bring your favorite hot ‘n’ hefty pornstar, that is.)

Chicks on Chicks with Dicks

Ava DevineRiding a shemale’s dick before a HD video camera adds a whole other dimension to the career and professional persona of a porn starlet and not always in such a positive way – see the barrage of complaints whenever Ava Devine appears in a Naughty America update. Ava, though, is a perfect example of an adult performer unafraid to try new things, expand her professional repertoire, and fuck people in ways most pornstars simply wouldn’t. A number of times and for a number of websites, including her own official site, Ava  has gone above and beyond what most female pornstars would identify as “the call of duty” to bring her fans something truly exceptional and potentially mind-blowing (not to mention team-changing): sex with transsexuals. Grabbing one of her favorite trans-performers – Vaniity is a frequent partner, as is Morgan Bailey – Ava is inclined to fuck their ladyboy asses with a strap-on, let them fuck her mouth, pussy, or ass, and will even get on all fours for a facial pasting containing millions of microscopic shemale sperm. Hell, she’s even down for some four-way tranny bukkake if the mood strikes, but do you think that gets her a place in the mainstream porn lover’s heart? Hell no, they’re too busy ogling Lexi Belle, Jessie Rogers, and every other blonde cutie-pie with a slim ‘n’ sexy figure who’ll snorkel for clams and smoke some pole and even strap a fake one on, but won’t go near an actual dick-equipped-chick with a 13″ Lex Steele Dong.

It’s great to see a performer of Ava Devine’s calibre and experience giver her tranny sisters a spot in a porn flick many folks otherwise would never find, let alone watch, but isn’t it time a few other notable women of the adult world opened themselves up to a little trans-banging once in a while? Imagine hot new (and very adventurous) starlets Holly Michaels and Skin Diamond teaming up to strap-on-fuck Morgan Bailey’s mouth and ass while she beats her own lil’ meatstick. Look, it’s not exactly my preferred style of smut, but it sure as hell is more original than another softly lit blowjob scene in which everyone plays their prescribed gender role perfectly, never crossing any boundaries, pushing any envelopes, or guzzling a shemale’s oral cum tsunami, wouldn’t you agree?
