Refreshing to hear someone able to describe porn as too big to be labelled this or that. It kind of reflects my experience - I've seen stuff that I would have no hesitation in labelling as abusive exploitative material (the point at which that stops becoming subjective is another discussion) but I'm aware enough not to condemn an entire industry for it.

Nice find Lizard.

It puts a sword to that age old argument that all women find porn degrading which the morally righteous like to spew up whenever possible.

Are there any Women producers in the British industry,ones making porn from a Womens perspective marketed towards Couples
be they straight or gay.Seems to me theres an over supply of guy porn off all standards.

Whats available for couples from the british industry?
To me this is the market that the industry will need to coerce inorder to become fully accepted and normal.

British female producers - Wendy Taylor, although I don't think any films have been released yet, I may be corrected by those more knowledgeable than me on the matter.

The 'tm' does not refer to my favoured liquid refreshment, thats duty free beer. I put it after my name with help from Joe King to distinguish myself from others who were also called Shaun and using the forum.

Some intriguing points Buttsie. But how does one define "guy porn" "girls porn" or "couples porn?"

"What's available for couples?" Sweet FA as far as I can see. And this is one of the main prerequisites for wider social acceptance of the adult genre. At the moment all kinds of 'wimmin's groups' religious fundamentalists Tory backbenchers, The Daily Mail and other assorted nutcases can point to Brit porn and declare - with some justification, that it is just for men (old, dirty or otherwise.) Nobody in the UK is making what we understand as "couples porn? We have raked over the reasons many times before - lack of dough, imagination, artistic flair, technical expertise and also there is no ready-made market for it. Anybody having a dabble would have to go out on a limb with their own dough and hope a market could be created for it. It would, in the first instance, probably be a labour of love. However, nothing concrete yet but this kind of project has been bandied about at various trade lunches. Hey, if Marc Dorcel and Vivid can do it so can we.

Its not only what is Guy/Girl/Couples Porn but what constitutes a Couple?

I suppose for porn to become more socially accepted the couple would be defined as a man and a woman with the average 2.3 kids with strongly held religious & moral beliefs.

Guy Porn-anything really with emphasis on fast penetration

Girl Porn-more foreplay and less of the rumpy pumpy by Mr Macho

Couples-ditto

The use of real life partners has got to be the way forward but not in the cheap amateur settings you see so many parading in.
You should at least in theory get real reactions which has got to be a plus.

Coz the Beeb cancelled his contract in favour of another documentary series about crap wannabee popstars.
Why can't they stick to making progs about cakes?
