I’m a lucky woman because I get interviewed by a lot of people.  It’s so flattering to know that people want to hear what I have to say.  Today, I wanted to share two interviews I did recently.  The first one is with GirlzPorn, so here are a few questions:

Was it difficult to leave your mainstream job behind and take a leap of faith? Do you have any advice for young women looking to start their own business but afraid of failure? It was scary, because there’s a certain element of feeling like you can’t turn back, but I have always believed so strongly in what we’re doing, so I was never truly concerned. For women who are looking to start their own business, just work hard and create something innovative yet true to yourself. That’s the ideal combination.

 

There are so many free tube sites available on the net, why should people continue paying for porn? Free porn is a big company’s game… For smaller companies, it’s hard to give too much away. If you’re a fan of unique and beautiful porn with genuine passion, you need to support it so you can encourage the sites to grow and pave the way for more innovative porn to come.

I think the kind of porn Girlzporn seeks to showcase is similar to the aesthetic of Art of Blowjob – artistic, intimate connections between performers, real orgasms, etc. Why do you think the availability of this kind of porn is important?Just like anything, variety is the spice of life. Porn needs to represent a variety of different tastes, but I’d argue that it is especially important to show realistic portrayals of sexuality. Many people look to porn for tips, and many people are influenced by porn on a subconscious level, so it’s important to send the message that mutual pleasure, communication and respect are key.

 

It was a really great interview, so please go read the rest!  I also was lucky enough to get some discussion time with Oruba of Neckties for Reptiles:

I’ve only recently discovered Feminist Porn. Can you tell me what Feminist Porn is? What does it mean to you? How would you respond to those who say that porn is anathema to feminism? 

I think Feminist Porn is anything that is made with women’s empowerment in mind.  Whether it’s a woman-owned company, whether it’s woman-directed, whether it’s specifically about female pleasure or if it’s porn which serves to promote equality and respect in general, those are all aspects that could foster feminism in porn.

What is your aim? What do you hope to achieve?

I want to make beautiful porn that is also hot.  Something for women, men and couples.  Something educational without being preachy, romantic without being cheesy…  Basically something that shows aspirational yet accessible sexuality.

It is an understatement to say that you’re incredibly good at what you do. You’re absolutely sensational to watch. Tell me, your skill with fellatio, is it the result of hard work and training or is it natural talent?

I guess it’s a mix of the two, but more than anything, it’s about being passionate about it and devoted to my boyfriend.  Knowing lots of tricks is great, but it’s not much without the motivation behind it.  That doesn’t have to be love, but for me it is.  As long as there’s some fire, the rest can be added.
