Government Porn
I’ve been tempted. Yes I have. I can’t deny it. When the government gets into the porn business, and makes a product that looks like surprisingly high-quality femdom and/or gay porn, it’s tough for a sex blogger to avoid comment. But I’ve been holding back.
I’ve written before about the reasons why “sexual atrocities are featured much less often on this blog than they might be.” Matisse makes the point much more succinctly. She has a wise policy: “I don’t eroticise non-consensual violence.” And this blog is, for the most part, supposed to be erotic.
Troll my archives, you might find a few places where I arguably have eroticised sexual atrocities. What can I say? Mistakes were made. I take full responsibility.
Whuh? No, I don’t think so. Of course nobody is going to lose their job over this. Are you nuts? Resign? Why bother, I already took responsibility, didn’t you hear me?

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And I thought you said you don’t do politics … ;)
I’ve always thought it was important to not be fooled by what something “looks like”. Yes, it looks like FemDom or gay porn but I think the important thing here is to focus on the intention.
The essence of Femdom and gay porn is to give pleasure – and I don’t think this was the intention here at all.
I’m glad you haven’t – bravo.

I did have something to say but after reading the above I’m left somewhat speechless.
OK, I am now soothed by a large dose of ‘Famous Grouse’ and I have regained some composure.
I want to say thanks to Bacchus for the introduction to Mistress Matisse – I don’t need her services but I very much like her style. She has interesting things to say.
I’m not sure the distinction you’re drawing is a good idea. Between consent and not, as regards to fantasy, that is – and images are fantasy, they’re just lit pixels on your screen.
Human instinct and the untamed libido doesn’t make these distinctions. Fantasy’s not something a person can control, nor IMO should they try. That would be a sort of “denial”.
Consent relates to actions upon real people – I think a person should be guiltless about what merely mental activities they sexualize.
