• Kink.com performer and director Maitresse Madeline is attempting to redefine the traditional gangbang so that it’s about female empowerment rather than subjugation. When Madeline was first approached to take over Kink.com’s “Hardcore Gangbangs” line last month, she wasn’t sure it was for her. But in conversation about the decision, “Lorelei [Lee] showed me that just because a woman is the center of a gangbang, doesn’t mean she shouldn’t be in total control,” she said. ”I want my women to be in control of the scene. I want them to own their sexuality.”

• I’m repulsed that this article included a picture of a child to accompany the porn item, but what an item. A professor at Thomas R.
