Product Description

The secret is out: Women watch porn. A recent study by Glamour magazine found that 87 percent of women ages 25 to 39 enjoy porn as part of their self-defined healthy sexual lifestyles — even more than use sex toys.
In The Smart Girl’s Guide to Porn, acclaimed sex educator Violet Blue offers hip, friendly, and knowledgeable advice on bringing porn into your sex life: how to find porn you’ll like, from favorite turn-ons and women-friendly DVDs to Podcasts and porn groups on the web; how to reconcile fantasy with real-life desires; and how smart girls can maintain their own beauty standards when the people on screen seem impossibly buff, smooth, and surgically enhanced. Looking for authentic sex scenes? Thinking of sharing porn with a lover? Wonder which browser is safest for internet porn surfing? For answers and insight, zoom in on The Smart Girl’s Guide to Porn.

All About Adult Films

Amos Lassen

Many of us know that some women do watch porn (and enjoy it). In fact in a recent survey it was found that one out of every three porn viewers is a woman. In this book Violet Blue tells women how to find the kind of porn that they will like and she obviously knows what she is talking about. She has done some outstanding work in this book as she gives us a detailed look at the porn industry. Porn, like everything else, comes in categories and Blue breaks down those categories and lets us know what to expect in porn. This is a wonderful addition to the library of any porn aficionado regardless of gender.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not what expected, February 24, 2009

By	G. Marino (California) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

No film reviews only a personal account of how she selects her movies. Does offer links and web sites to view, but was looking for a review and rating book.
