Courtney Trouble, fabulous director of the upcoming Roulette (incredibly hot soon-to-be released queer porn!!) and operator of the NoFauxxx website just announced she’s looking for folks to be in her next queer-licious film! There are lots of roles to be played – sex and non-sex – so if you are in the Bay Area (or [...]
I think it’s safe to say that one of Good Vibrations long-standing crushes has been Madison Young. She’s like a Clark Kent of porn stars, masquerading not-so-secretly as a pornstar/bondage model/award-winning director by day and a feminist art gallery owner/performance artist/community leader… well… day. She’s also a musician and writer. Is there anything this sexy smart woman can’t do?
In the articles and blogs that I’ve read about porn, every so often, someone talks about the “cum shot“. For the most part, I see people talking about it as objectification of women, a way to humiliate the recipient (generally, this is an argument about humiliation of women since gay porn is consistently left out [...]
The Film: Zombie Strippers
Director/Writer: Jay Lee
Starring: Jenna Jameson, Robert Englund
Website: www.sonypictures.com/movies/zombiestrippers
Have you ever been so excited about something you almost didn’t know where to begin?
I guess I have to start by saying that I am something of a Zombie/Campy Horror film fanatic. From obscure independent gore fests to the classic pantheon of terror elites [...]

Midori is a woman of many trades. She is an accomplished author, Japanese Rope Bondage expert, lecturer, humanitarian, sex-positive educator, as well as an artist (and few more other talents, I’m sure). Whether you’ve read her books, taken any of her classes, heard her speak at events or conferences, or participated in any [...]

The GV Weekly recently sat down with acclaimed writer, editor, director, and all-around Sexpert Tristan Taormino to find out what new projects are in the works, her favorite sex toys, and how she’s changing the face of porn.
GV: You recently began a new series, Vivid Ed. Tell us how that came about and [...]

Full of salty songs, the seductive shimmy, and a slew of notable double entendres, this sexy stage gem caused quite a stir when it premiered on Broadway in 1926, and was subsequently closed down by the police; West herself was convicted of obscenity. SEX paved the brassy entertainer’s way to [...]

Working at a company like Good Vibrations can be pretty revolutionary in even more than the expected ways. From the sensitivity of fellow co-workers, to discussing sex toys/practices in the office, and being able to peruse more than a few “Not Safe For Work” websites in a day’s work, it is understandable how [...]
“This is the key to the crash pad and I want to give it to you. You’re guaranteed a panty dropping good time with anyone you bring to the crash pad…..Now that you have the key…go ahead and stick it in…” Thus begins the uber-popular, indy-produced, all-girl, all-queer The Crash Pad.
The Crash Pad, produced [...]
An Interview with Good Vibrations’ own, Jo-El!
It’s actually not true that video killed the radio star, because Sirius Radio has become quite a phenomenon, with its 200 channels and superstars such as Howard Stern. In fact, our friend Diana Cage hosts a show on Sirius’ Out Q, the gay channel. On her show, “Diana gets [...]
Technology loves to fuck. From photography and motion pictures to web cams and video-on-demand, the world of technology has ridden, dutifully, on the backs of the sex industry. To keep up with it all, there’s the sex blogs.
What is a blog? In short, a “web log” is a frequently updated (in reverse chronological order) post [...]
My grandmother started to ask me which pieces of jewelry of hers I liked. I am not a big jewelry wearer. I removed most of my piercing a couple years ago, mostly out of utilitarian purpose. I find jewelry beautiful yet cumbersome. Jewelry also has this interesting status of financial investment and emotional heirloom. As [...]
The erotic landscape is urban, no? The dungeons, the endless play parties, the relative safety in which to perform gender or wear your sexual proclivities on your leathered sleeve; the countless opportunities to cruise and be cruised….
Maybe. But don’t remind me; this newly rural thirty-something, who happens to be on a one-woman mission to get [...]
Ah, the wonderful world of television. So many things it has brought into our lives like professional sports, science fiction based intergalactic travel, Janet Jackson’s boob, and let us not forget PORN! There are many things I see on the old boob tube that leave me in states of awe and wonderment. Many of which [...]

“Do you really pray for George Bush’s daughters to turn into lesbians?”Christmas 2006 — required holiday phone call to my father. This was the first sentence of the conversation that didn’t involve some sort of “Merry Christmas!” or “How’s work?” I had called him while walking the dog with my girlfriend, and his [...]
Dear Syd,
Not to pry, but I noticed that you mentioned a threesome in your blog recently. I was wondering if you could give me some advice?
I’ve participated in 4+ sex but never the delicate three.
What are your experiences with three, and do you have any warning or tips or anything?
Sincerely, D.
Dear D,
Three-ways [...]
Rummaging through my jumble of bras and socks, I asked Alex what I should wear.
“Whatever you want,” she said, heading for the bathroom. So I chose my lavender dress — perfect for sticky August heat. I slipped it on and was starting to do up my sandals when Alex came back into the room.
“Um,” she [...]
Working at Good Vibrations, I’ve often heard many people express concern and discomfort about talking to children about sex. After receiving a rather belated, yet thorough sex education, I decided it was time to share my knowledge with those who needed it the most… my parents. In this strange role reversal, I found myself in [...]
Imagine this…
You are sitting in a grassy park. The hot California sun shines on your face, a light breeze cools your neck, and as you take a sip of the cold beverage in your hand you gaze out to a sea of over 5,000 half-naked dykes.
No, this is not the best sex dream you’ve ever [...]

I’ve been writing about sex for over half my adult life. Sex writing makes up the vast majority of my writer’s resume, as well as my professional reputation, and my body of published fiction consists entirely of erotica (a.k.a. smut). I’m an ardent supporter of the burgeoning field of erotic fiction, and a [...]

The first sex shop I went to was a run-down trailer full of negligees. They were playing “Hungry Like the Wolf” on the radio as my friend and I walked warily around the store. She was wearing a t-shirt that read “Well-Behaved Women Rarely Make History.” We could not yet bring ourselves to [...]

“Beep! Beep!”
The sound of Patrice’s horn has me clattering down the stairs with my ten year-old niece, Kenya, quick on my heels. My brother’s sweet child had flown to D.C. by herself to be with me for the holiday break, and now my very butch and very impatient girlfriend is waiting outside to [...]
“You’re not serious,” she said. I raised my eyebrows. “What’s wrong with you?” she said, turning her back. We were standing in the bargain barn of the Vermont Country Store, in Rockingham, Vt., an emporium of folksy gifts, old-timey novelties, and practical products for country living.
Hanging on the back wall of the barn was a [...]
On October 27, a lawsuit will be heard in a New York City courtroom that could have great repercussions on what you can see and read on the Internet. The suit, Barbara Nitke and the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom vs. John Ashcroft, seeks to stop the US Justice Department from prosecuting certain web-based material [...]
Governments around the world are delivering SARS-related travel advisories, but the deadly epidemic is only one of many troubling travel issues today. Since 9/11, air travel has become complicated, frightening and irritating, turning routine business trips and leisure vacations into Kafka-esque nightmares. Even so, while the “mile high club” may have become an urban legend, [...]

Next Step: Good Vibrations Off-Site Sex Education and Active Senior Lifestyles
I have been working for Good Vibrations for over 3 years now and I was just thinking: I could never see myself working anywhere else. Where else can I talk openly about sex and vibrators while holding a dildo in my hand, or explain why anal sex is healthy and pleasurable—it’s all just another day [...]
