It’s a good question, what is ethical porn? we’ve used the term to describe our work here at P4P for a while because we have always made content with a strong set of ethics, only in the last few years has an identifiable movement emerged that we feel confident putting our name behind.

We were recently approached by Coleen Singer, a writer, columnist and longtime adult industry advocate who was working on a new project. Ethical.porn is a website dedicated to providing a platform for complex, critical, ongoing discussion of “ethical” as it pertains to adult content production.

For us it ends up being mostly about the production and what goes on during production, ensuring safe and fair working conditions for cast and crew, an emphasis on positive consent and an awareness about the limits of performativity in film.

We think this is a fantastic idea to launch a site that’s explicit purpose is to expand the conversation about this growing movement. We were happy to lend our voice to the chorus of people who are debating what exactly ethical porn means? Check out our full article here and read many other great statements by producers, performers and other industry insiders from the site http://ethical.porn/

 

 

The Toronto International Porn awards have wrapped and they were a raging success.

Our good friend Ms Naughty became the Porn Indie Icon, check out her blog about it here.  Aussie legend Anna Brownfield got the award for Best Direction of an Original Concept for The Bedroom.

Mega thanks to TIPF for putting together another year of amazing content and hosting an event that promotes the most creative, expressive, diverse and erotic pornography the industry has to offer. Permission 4 Pleasure is thrilled to be a part of it.

 

Till next year x

We are thrilled to announce that three of our films, “I Am Whole”, “Having My Cake” and “Breathtaking”, have been nominated at the newly launched Toronto International Porn Festival. Formally known as the Good For Her, Feminist Porn Awards, it has now been rebranded to “broaden the conversation about positive porn and reflect the diverse audience it attracts. These films are for people of all genders, sexualities, bodies and pleasures.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We have a bunch of cool, new porn screenings coming up. It’s so amazing to see so many porn film festivals popping up. Screenings are an important step in normalising alternative genres of porn because putting content into the cinema setting allows the content to be given credibility by the institutions that allow the works to be screened.

 

Its our pleasure to be part of the following festivals coming up (get out there and go see some alt-porn, support your local pornographers and encourage ethical porn production and what you want to see!)

Permission 4 Pleasure is screening at cinekink 2017

Cinekink is one of the worlds best kink and porn film festivals. These festivals are such important spaces for film makers and audiences alike because its a chance to come together in a public space and talk about porn, kink and queer life in a way that not a lot of other spaces afford us.

 

We are incredibly happy to have two of our films screening at Cinekink this year. Breathtaking and Having My Cake  at the 2017 cinekink.    We are screening Having My Cake this year as part of the sessions ‘Bring It’  which is ‘a dazzling array of talent from today’s adult cinema, working in a wide range of genres and visual styles, steps up with a hot sampling of their recent creative endeavors. And then the audience votes to determine the best”

and Breathtaking is part of the ‘surrender‘ session- this selection of shorts touches upon the exquisite moments of letting go, of giving oneself over completely to another.

About Cinekink: (taken from their website)

Founded in 2003, CineKink recognizes and encourages the positive depiction of sexuality and kink in film and television, most visibly through its annual film festival, CineKink NYC.

Featuring a carefully-curated program of films and videos that celebrate and explore the wide diversity of sexuality, with offerings drawn from both Hollywood and beyond, works presented by CineKink range from documentary to drama, camp comedy to artsy experimental, mildly spicy to quite explicit — and everything in between.

In addition to screenings, the annual festival also includes a short film competition, audience choice awards, presentations, parties and a gala kick-off fundraiser, all followed by a national screening tour.

Its been a very Pink Label few months here at P4P, our newest films are live now!

not only have they relaunched we now have our two newest films, The Kissing Whip and Breathtaking available to stream or download from here 

We made two new poster, box art looks for each film for the release. We are so happy to have our work featured on Pink Label.

It’s now easier than ever to download and stream porn and erotica that is outside the mainstream. Pink Label has a huge collection of alternative, ethical porn. P4P focuses on smashing down barriers of agism in the sex industry, featuring 40+ performers.

 

We were so stoked to see Pink Label relaunch in 2017 with a brand new website! Pink Label is based in the U.S and is one of the finest selections of indie porn, carefully curated for the tastes of the sex positive, fair trade, queer friendly audiences by the award winning team.

As they mention in their ‘about section’ “[Pink Labels] communities comprise queer, trans, and people of color, as well as older folks and people with disabilities, so we understand first-hand that porn is broader than the stereotypical audience market.”
We at Permisson4Pleasure have proudly been featuring our work on PinkLabel for years, so seeing their new site was super exciting.

They have a range of new ways to browse for content, on top of  browsing ‘by studio’- now you can search for content by playlist/ genre which makes the experience more explorative (like Netflix but for indie porn, how good is that!) Some of the choice playlists are:

Best of Cinekink NYC

Boygasms: masculine sex appeal

Ceci N’est Pas Une Porn: experimental and alternative

Edu-porn: sexy adult education

PinkLabel and Chill: adult feature films with a plot

POC Porn: People of Color in Adult Films

Splash Zone: Wet Ejaculation

Seriously, don’t you just want to go an have a look around and find out what films make up those playlists. You can buy or rent (download or stream) and its easy as piss, just select a film, decide if you want to rent or buy and then enter your credit card (with the super safe, well trusted CCbilling system) and then you are on your way.

If you’ve ever thought there is no porn I like, where is all the good porn, chances are you will find something for your sensibilities on Pink Label, so go on an adventure and check it out. If you are after more ethical/ feminist porn resources, check out our ethical porn resource list here.

I recently had the privilege of being asked for a profile on Tattoodo, a tattoo based lifestyle community that has over 4 million fans on social media.
