Crash Pad Series- Volume 5- The Revolving Door
Director- Shine Louise Houston
Studio- Blowfish Video/ Pink & White
Cast- August, Stacy Staxxx, Rex, Scarlett Chaos, Red, Cyd Loverboy, Kuma, Julie Warren, Shawn, Mickey Mod

Crash Pad Series, Volume 5: The Revolving Door is the kinkiest of the Crash Pad series so far and features lots of plays of dominance, submissive power struggles, switching and hardcore sex.  The cast consists of hot gender-fucking freaks, femmes-dykes, alt-queers, bois, butches, a trans-man and even a surprise ending between Crash Pad crush Shawn (Syd Blakovich) and a bio-guy.  With five scenes, various top/bottom scenarios, diverse body-types and looks, there is plenty of hot queer kinky porn for everyone.

Scene 1- August and Stacy Staxxx

Its August’s birthday and Stacy Staxxx throws her a hot party, with herself as the gift.  Stacy is a stacked, hot, alt-nymphet and August is a cute alt-dyke, both with nice tats.  Stacy begins by dripping birthday candle wax on August, and then ties her wrists to the bed.  Stacy then fucks herself on August’s faux cock.  The pair switch positions and August takes control, binding Stacy wrists, and then fingering her.  They end with August fucking Stacy doggie-style until she whimpers and moans in orgasm. Sexy!

Scene 2- Rex and Scarlett Chaos

Rex and Scarlett Chaos (aka Essin’ Em) meet up for some femme/dyke action.  Scarlett is bodacious and a Rex is very cute boi-dyke.  They make a good pair together and the scene has a lot of playful chemistry.  We start out with some spanking and some very passionate necking, and then Scarlett gets naughty and struggles a bit for dominance.  She’s what I call a SAM (smart-assed Masochist), who likes to be a saucy bottom.  But, Rex won’t have any of that and cuffs her to the bed post.  Rex uses a pinwheel on her, and then starts to finger her.  Scarlett pleads, “Please fuck me,” which Rex does hardcore and gives her a screaming orgasm that breaks the sound barrier. Scarlett reciprocates by giving Rex’s strap-on dick a wicked blowjob (something she does quite well).  Rex fucks her until she screams again, making for a hot, playful scene!

Scene 3- Red and Cyd Loverboy

Red’s a hot alt-femme-boi with killer tits and tats, and Cyd’s a playful butch-boi.  Cyd is the obvious bottom but likes a good struggle.  It doesn’t take long for Red to put her in her place though as she slaps her face, makes her suck cock, degrades her and calls her pain-slut and faggot.  There’s some chest punching, ass spanking, bondage, gagging, and all around rough play.  However, the scene remains pretty playful.  Red ass fingers Cyd, and then fucks her.  Later Cyd eats Red out and fingers her until she comes.  Then Cyd gets fingered and bites her hand as she orgasms.  Great chemistry!

Scene 4- Kuma and Julie Warren

Kuma and Julie appear to be a couple, or at least frequent play partners.  Kuma is a bald, bearded trans-guy leather daddy with lots of tattoos including a cool back piece.  Julie is a voluptuous bottom and Daddy’s good little girl. Kuma’s quite a loving sadist and amazingly skilled at percussion.  He wields two-fisted floggers on Julie’s back then her breasts.  Then it’s on to the nasty canes that leave nice red stripes on Julie’s thighs.  Julie then gets to suck Kumo’s cock for being “such a good girl” and is later fucked and fisted, until she asks permission to come.  Yes sir, thank you sir!

Scene 5- Shawn and Mickey Mod

For many films I don’t like to read about them, or even read the covers before I watch them, as it takes away some of the freshness and element of surprise.  Well, I was surprised when I saw this obvious bio-guy sitting waiting on a bed waiting for someone to arrive.  And, who walks in?  Crash Pad boi-crush Shawn (aka Syd Blakovich).  I’m floored and wonder how this is going to play out.  Mickey immediately takes the bottom role and starts sucking Shawn’s cock.  So, I think maybe this scene has a chance.  Then Mickey fingers Shawn while she sucks his bio-dick, and they make-out all sweaty and hot, and finally Shawn squirts in Mickey’s face as he comes.  Pretty feverish scene, and like Shawn says during the credits “if someone’s attractive, they’re attractive, and gender isn’t something you see with your eyes anyway.”  So while I was surprised to see Shawn with a guy, the scene works and is definitely hot.

There wasn’t one scene in the film that didn’t interest or excite me in some way.  I loved all the kinky exploration and playful S/m.  All the scenes had a nice build-up of momentum and chemistry between the players.  I especially loved the diverse array of bodies and shifting genders.  I hope Houston keeps adding more queer kink, interesting characters and maybe adds in an orgy scene at the Crash Pad someday soon.

Summer’s over.  And, this is the time of year that I try to find some alternative ways to exercise like join belly dance, Pilates and yoga classes.  But I live way in the country and there are not many interesting fitness classes available in my area.  I could sign up for erotic dance and pole dancing classes in the city but that’s two hours of driving there and back each time.  So, this year I decided to try out My Sexy Little Pole—Professional Dancing Kit from TabuToys.com.

My Sexy Little Pole comes in a long tube with the pole in three sections, hardware to attach it to your ceiling and floor, an instruction book and an instructional DVD.  The pole is simple to assemble and fits ceilings 7 ½ feet – 8 ½ feet.  My ceiling is actually just slightly over 8 ½ feet, so I have the pole extended to the max, yet it is still fairly sturdy.  The pole is constructed out of stainless steel and will hold up to 200 lbs, which I checked and got my partner to climb it.  He’s about 200 lbs.  It says that some shaking and movement on the pole is entirely normal and you do experience that.  They also warn you not to use it while intoxicated, probably a good tip!

As soon as I set it up I wanted to use it right away, so it does inspire you to get active.  I set it up in my office so I can take a break from sedentary sitting at the computer, and start dancing around the pole for a ½ hour each day.  Its pretty fun and I don’t feel like I’m exercising, even though my body feels the effects of it afterwards.

So, the first night after I had “erected” my pole, I put the instructional DVD in.  The girl in the video, Kate, is very fit and looks like she is most likely a professional pole dancer or instructor.  She shows you an entire routine, and then parts of it, so you can learn the basic moves.  The DVD is fairly amateurish, as the sound quality is terrible in some parts with the music blaring so loud you can’t hear her instructions.  Thanks goodness you can watch her and follow her moves, but I wasn’t impressed with this DVD.  It’s too bad they didn’t take the time to make a good quality DVD to go with the pole as otherwise, this would be an awesome product.

You can basically follow what she is doing however, as she shows each moves several times so you can try it as you watch.  Later on in the DVD she shows you some more advanced moves as well.  Most of the moves are simple, and require coordination rather than strength, so anyone could learn these.  I could also do one of the pole slides right away which was encouraging.  A few of the more advanced moves will take practice, and time as I build up the strength in my body and loose a few more pounds.

My Sexy Little Pole is a great pole for beginners and experts who want to try some erotic pole dancing right in their own home.  I have read that it is one of the sturdiest poles out there, next to Carmen Electra’s pole, but it is much cheaper.  I haven’t tried Carmen’s pole so can’t verify which is better, but can recommend My Sexy Little Pole as a good quality, strong pole that will get you started right away, in a matter of minutes.

Erotic Dancing for your Lover

With My Sexy Little Pole, I also got “The Better Sex Guide to Erotic Dancing” DVD from Sinclair Institute so I could learn some other basic moves for erotic dancing.  This DVD doesn’t teach pole dancing, but erotic striptease, however I thought it would teach me a few things that I could apply to pole dancing.

This DVD wasn’t what I was expecting. It begins with a dance instructor (Carmen, but not Carmen Electra) who has a class of “real women” to whom she teaches a few erotic dance moves.  The classes are pretty short and don’t really teach you a lot.  You learn the basic strip-tease “walk”, stretching, floor work (like crawling on the floor) and how to use some props, but nothing really specific as in moves.  Then you watch the “real women” try these out themselves on their “real partners”.  They do their routines, which are fairly amateur, and then the rest is a soft-core sex scene.  I was like—Whoa! Wait a minute!  I thought this was a dance instruction DVD?  Well, it is but mostly it’s about erotic seduction and features soft-core porn.  The one thing I did like about this DVD as it showed women of all shapes and sizes doing an erotic striptease, so if you can body issues, you might be inspired by seeing the plump girl do her routine which was the best one of the bunch.  So, other than that, I wouldn’t say this DVD has any redeeming value and you certainly won’t learn too much erotic dancing from it, so fairly disappointing.

I do recommend My Sexy Little Pole however, and you can get it and “The Better Sex Guide to Erotic Dancing” DVD from TabuToys.com under Swinger’s Lifestyle Products and Erotic DVDs.

Hard Love and How To Fuck In High Heels (2000)
Studio: S.I.R. Video / Fatale Media
Directors: Jackie Strano, Shar Rednour
Cast: C.C. Belle, Chester Drawers, Edrie, Jamie Ben-Azay, Nicole Katler, Veronica Savage, and Shar Rednour.

“Hard Love and How To Fuck In High Heels” is a double feature written, directed and produced by Shar Rednour and Jackie Strano, a lesbian couple from San Francisco who are actively involved in the sex industry through video production and spoken word performances.  This film was the first lesbian-produced porn to be recognized by mainstream porn and receive an award from AVN for “Best All-Girl Feature”.

“Hard Love” follows Jackie Strano, a butch dyke who is one half of a recently separately lesbian couple and her ex-lover, the seductive C.C. Bell.  The two wash away their sorrows by having raunchy sex with other women, but are still drawn to each other and end up having make-up / break-up sex together.  The sex is raw and authentic as the butches strap-on their dyke dicks featuring heady groping, sucking, fucking, anal sex and fisting.  While the argument scene has overly dramatic performances, the dykes are handsome as fuck and the femmes so sweet I could eat their brains (and pussies) like jam.

“How to Fuck in High Heels” is a mock behind-the-scenes performance piece, in which Shar Rednour recites her sound art on stage. This stage scene flashes back and forth as she demonstrates with “exceptional grace, skill and style” just how to fuck other sexy femmes in her many pairs of platforms, stilettos and come-fuck-me shoes.  Some seriously hot scenes ensue, packed full of hardcore lesbian action that is as real as lust can get.

If you love real dykes and femmes having genuine sex on film, you will love this film.  It is a great addition to my other much-loved lesbian films by Pink and White Productions, Bleu Productions and Blowfish Videos.  I look forward to seeing more of S.I.R. Video in the future.  Rock on!

You can get “Hard Love and How To Fuck In High Heels” at Babeland along with many other hot lesbian DVDs.

Studio: Adam & Eve

Director: Ernest Greene
Starring: Carmen Luvana, Melissa Lauren, Nicole Sheridan, Nina Hartley, Voodoo
Released on: 10/2/2005

I love Nina Hartley and it is always a pleasure to receive and review one of her guides. Nina began her adult film career in 1984 with Educating Nina about the same time she received her nursing degree and has made 650 adult films since then. Although Nina has never worked as a nurse, she uses her skills to educate others in the porn industry. Daughter of Zen Buddhists and feminists, Nina adopted their philosophies and is an advocate of female sexual empowerment, believing that women should “take control over their own pleasure…” Nina has won several AVN Awards and has been inducted to the AVN Hall of Fame.

Nina Hartley began creating educational videos in 1996 with her first “how-to” DVD: “Nina Hartley’s Guide to Swinging”. She now has twenty-three guides in her repertoire including her latest three “Guide to Great Sex During Pregnancy” (2008), “Guide to Bondage Sex” (2008), and “Advanced Guide to Anal Sex for Men and Women” (2007). The guides are targeted towards couples who are interested in exploring the hedonistic pleasures of adventurous sex and cover a wide range of topics including spanking, strap-ons, female ejaculation, stripping, group sex, erotic massage and even foot fetishes. All of Nina’s guides are directed by her husband Ernest Greene.

“Nina Hartley’s Guide to G-spot Sex” (2005) is the eleventh sex guide in the series and features her usual format: Prologue Chat with Nina, Hands-on Demo, Feature Sex Scene, Bonus Scene, Interview with Nina, Behind the Scenes, as well as the usual Previews and Gallery.

Prologue Chat

In this guide, Nina recruits Carmen Luvana to chat about G-spot sex in a Q&A format in which Nina acts as educator. Nina knows her subject well, is articulate and enthusiastic. Unfortunately, poor Carmen has trouble stumbling over her dialogue. To be fair, I’m not sure how many takes Carmen had (I’m guessing one) so this may be a directorial problem, which doesn’t make sense since digital video is so cheap. Fortunately, I was too distracted by her hotness to really care. I was disappointed that Carmen is not in any of the sex scenes though, which was surprising since she’s the co-host. The coolest part about this segment, however, is that Nina uses a huge anatomical map of the female pelvis to enlighten the viewer on what the G-spot is and where it is located. Nina’s demonstration with the chart is enlightening and makes G-spot anatomy easy to understand.

Demo Scene

Nina’s been getting pretty kinky lately and this demonstrative scene shows plenty of that. Nina and her sexy friend Melissa Lauren (Fashionistas: Safado 2007) are dressed in skin-tight PVC: Nina as a naughty nurse and Melissa as the patient in a gynecological chair. One of my favorite role-playing fantasies is nurse/patient so I absolutely loved this scene. Melissa Lauren is French and has a very sexy accent. Nina explains that the G-spot only reveals itself once a woman is turned on and commences foreplay on Melissa whose spread eagle in stir-ups. After a bit of foreplay and cunnilingus, Nina slips on latex gloves and gives Melissa an internal examination. This is where the scene really gets interesting. Nina inserts a speculum into Melissa’s vagina, showing viewers the spongy tissue of the G-spot. This is up-close-and-personal and you can really see the spongy tissue inflating like a little wrinkled balloon. Later, an anal speculum is inserted and Nina shows how the G-spot can be massaged indirectly through the anus with more subtlety, which Nina explains is her favorite way to stimulate herself. Nina then demonstrates various G-spot toys and the best positions for G-spot sex, using her strap-on, which includes missionary style, doggy style and the old reverse cowgirl.

Feature Sex Scene

After a brief intermission with Nina and Carmen, husband and wife team Nicole Sheridan and Voodoo take center stage. I have watched Nicole and Voodoo in other films by Nina and their performance here lacks their normal sizzle. Nicole pretends that they are exploring her G-spot for the first time, which requires suspending your disbelief. After all, she is a seasoned porn star. Because of this the scene craves their customary “wow” factor and their exceptional chemistry. They do, however, illustrate the best positions for G-spot sex, which is constructive.

Bonus Scene

I really don’t enjoy bonus scenes that don’t relate to the topic at hand. This one seems to have been thrown in for promo reasons from producers Adam & Eve. It is a scene from “University of Austyn” (2005) featuring a cheerleader going down on a geek and then sex in varying positions. I didn’t see a G-spot anywhere.

So should you buy this guide?

I would give this film 3 out of 5 cherries. There is definitely something to be learned here and the scene between Nina and Melissa is great, worth the price alone. For those who know little about finding their G-spot, this guide would be insightful. I appreciate that Nina spends time afterward in her interview talking about her own G-spot experiences and letting women know that every experience is different. Nina has never experienced female ejaculation, so advises women not to make ejaculation their ultimate goal, but to enjoy the journey of exploration and orgasm in itself. My only quip about the film is the sometimes amateurish quality: sound, cinematography, editing and dialogue. If Nina (or her partner Ernest Greene) could figure this stuff out I’m sure they’d make a million. Oh, wait, they already have.
