10. Female Fantasies – This is a different, much better twist to the reality TV show idea. Some time ago, adult filmmakers realized women respond better to “amateur” video, where real life lovers are filmed. Badly acted and contrived “porn” scenarios with a laundry list of positions and medical school worthy close-ups of genitalia don’t arouse us (can’t imagine why!). Petra Joy takes the “amateur video” idea to a more polished level. Female Fantasies is based on erotic fantasies sent to her by female photography clients and friends. She brought the fantasies to life with performers who are real life lovers, not porn stars. Not much in the way of dialogue – just pure immersion into fantasy sex scenarios. I’m kind of partial to the car wash scene. Just saying.
To wrap it up, here are some “mainstream” honorable mentions:
Sherlock BBC – Episode: "A Scandal in Belgravia" – this BBC series is awesome to watch in its entirety. However, this 90-minute episode features Sherlock’s interaction with a Dominatrix, and the scenes with them are delightful. She’s of course given the name of Irene Adler, the love of his life!
CSI – The Lady Heather episodes - this series periodically hosts a character known as “Lady Heather," a Dominatrix who developed a special relationship with Grissom. These episodes portrayed a Mistress as a complex, intelligent and powerful person with a woman’s vulnerability and desire for love. It was the first time I saw a Domme done right in TV. If you go to this Wikipedia link, it lists out the episodes specifically (yes, they were that popular!)
My only real main complaint about most of the fine erotic material I’ve mentioned here (mostly #1-6) is they still shy away from scenarios where women relinquish control. For so many of us, the fantasy is being swept away, overwhelmed and trusting a lover to take the reins for our mutual pleasure. In our real lives, we have to run the world, right? Let’s hope with the influence of 50 Shades of Grey (love it or hate it), we’ll live to see more movies and series that realize women can be strong and surrender. In fact, sometimes that moment of surrender makes us all the more powerful.
As a final note, if you find you do like choices 8-10, you’ll be happy to know the adult film industry, for so long male-oriented in its content, is expanding its offerings for women/couples. There are even guides for watching adult video with the woman/couple in mind (check under author Violet Blue). And if the woman in your life is considering watching porn with you, guys, I have a bit of closing advice. It’s best to let her take the lead on choices. What’s going to turn her on is going to be awesome for you both. What turns her off…well, I guess I don’t really have to paint that picture, do I? If Mama’s not happy, ain’t nobody happy!
Happy viewing…
