LADY GODIVA: The Naked Truth

18 year old Belle Knox has been dubbed the 'Duke porn star' after making headlines last month when her sideline porn gig's cover was blown by a bunch of disproportionately male fellow university students.  They initially made their presence known to Knox on her personal Facebook account with a barrage of random friend requests but she acknowledges not making the real link to her moonlighting as a porn actress being the cause to the sudden surging interest in being her friend until someone in her class started following her alter-ego Twitter feed. As the campus slut-shaming and fallout harassment escalated, no doubt mainly being caused by her 'adoring male fans' and after Knox's true identity was revealed against her will she choose to write about her experience in a xoJane piece that went viral.           Knox's own words as to why she choice to pursue this 'career' (for t...

The following 13 chauvinists have just got to be commemorated for their contributions to misogyny in this year of the snake as 2013 draws to a close.  Unfortunately it was difficult to narrow it down to a mere 13 but here they are,  in no particular order :   #13). Robin Thicke - for his awful music video that ran on like a pre-school porno that recently discovered Twitter existed and completely #negatedthepowerfullyrics . ( Eat the foot, eat it )! #12). Seth MacFarlane - sang  We Saw Your Boobs at the Oscars and trivialized Scarlett Johansson's erape. (I hate you). #11).

...I thought I knew what Revenge Porn was. And maybe dear reader, you might not even have heard of Revenge Porn yet.  This woman does an excellent job of breaking it down: But not until I read this article based on true accounts, did I become aware that a seemingly disproportionate amount of women and girls had been hacked for intimate photos they had never even planned on sharing willingly with others.  As if the notion of Revenge Porn in and of itself weren't despicable enough.  But getting hacked, having private information getting blasted over the internet, resulting in the loss of relationships, friendships, jobs, and lives?--that's just an evil notion to "profit" off of.  Where there was not even a so-called "revenge" committed just a random series of malicious acts on a stranger having done no wrong doing at all.  And where does the data mining stop?--are drunken cleavage shots game?--bikini's?  Some of these ...

After seeing Lovelace , I was compelled to articulate some thoughts about it.  See the trailer for the film below if you haven't already: Growing-up, and I can't chart the exact age, I had learned about Linda Lovelace and Deep Throat relatively young.  I never saw the pornography nor excerpts from it.  I just heard about it.  I know it was at a age where not only was I too young to be giving blow-jobs, I actually wasn't giving anyone blow-jobs yet.  It made an impression on me though nonetheless.  The impression it made was a negative one, I'm old enough to know now.  The impression it gave me was that a female better learn the craft of sex to please and keep her man, even if it meant her physical discomfort.  How is losing your virginity, "deep throating" a ten inch or longer penis, or getting a cock shoved up your ass anything other than physical discomfort?--because it is.  But a sexually desirable, a sexual...
