The zeitgeist is tending toward less overt 'total melee' (my phrase b/c I don't have a better one) form of capitalism toward personal morality, respect, quality vs. quantity, etc. It's showing up in our porn too. It's still something we have to deal with, but I believe the change is occurring. ##* ##*### ###*#*# ##*## # random awesome internet cookie award for violet's site. Keep kicking ass.

The girl/girl genre (now transforming into the <a href="http://www.mydigitalpublication.com/publication/index.php?i=4724&m=&l=&p=82" rel="nofollow">New Wave of Lesbian Erotica</a>), which is on the receiving end of so much rhetorical piss-talking from the "real queer" porn crowd, is actually one of the healthiest genres in porn right now, due in no small measure to 10 years of activity of the <a href="http://group.lezlove.com/" rel="nofollow">Lezlove Video Group</a>, which has been connecting large and small porn producers with an active community of fans of the genre with very high standards. Now I've just read that Metro, one of the dinosaurs of the old porn industry, is going to try to give old lines like "No Man's Land" and "Babes Illustrated" a new lease on life by bringing over a director who used to be with Girlfriends Films. Now as far as safe sex standards and viewers go, while I think the degree that fans aren't receptive to condoms for penetrative sex is exaggerated, I can guarantee you that dental dams for f/f oral sex is going to go over like a lead balloon. It basically kills what's erotic about viewing cunnilingus, and for the questionable gain of a safer sex technique that very few people, lesbian or het, actually use in real life. “One of the reasons mainstream porn is dying is because they’re maintaining a disconnect with their customers/users”
