Good Dyke Porn


From Video “Eleven - Eddie/Aya in the Woods 3″ on Good Dyke Porn

Each time I start writing this review of Good Dyke Porn I have to stop and start over, because I keep on not being able to convey just how much I’ve enjoyed this site, and how wonderful I believe this site and these videos are. Not only does every video look like real dykes having real dyke sex (interpret that as you wish) and actually genuinely enjoying themselves, they are doing it in a way that is incredibly enjoyable to watch as well.

The only negative I can say about the site at all is that I found myself getting so turned on by it that I got turned around on it, unsure of how to get back to a page I was on before without the back button or scrolling through multiple pages. Part of that was me forgetting how I got to a page after watching a video, cumming, and being generally brain-addled from that.

Even with the slightly confusing navigation videos aren’t at all difficult to find, just getting back to a specific video or page was difficult for me, and I enjoy the general layout and the way each video is laid out, with the ability to watch or save each clip from each scenario. Another nice thing about the way it’s set up is that you can choose get a general membership to the site or just buy individual clips that pique your interest, which is extremely handy because not everyone is into all the same things, so you can just pick and choose what you want to watch and what you don’t. Of course, the more clips you buy the more you would save by just buying a membership.

I’ve watched a number of different clips and different scenarios, from a familiar pizza boy scenario to a femme circle jerk to a femmed up male-bodied dyke and his lover engaging in play, and many more! Each one was strikingly different but they all were exactly what the title indicates: good (or great) dyke porn. I loved the feeling that I got from watching these, not just the turned on feeling but like I was peeking in on what these dykes normally did with each other, not that I was watching some elaborately staged visual adult entertainment that was trying to be anything other than real dykes getting it on.

I especially loved that everyone looked like they were real people, with all different breast sizes, body types, and skin tones. Like I said, every scenario is different, with a variety of tones, toys, and activities. Some have strap-ons and other toys introduced into the mix, some are just dyke-on-dyke fingers and mouth on cunt action, some have restraints and BDSM or D/s overtones, some have all three. They are all in various locations both outdoors (hot!) and indoors and each one of them is extremely fun to watch.

Some of the videos even have extra ‘behind the scenes’ clips as a seperate clip after the hot action, where you get to talk with those involved in the scene and learn a little more about them. I loved this, almost more than the actual videos (though not quite–I did say almost!) because it just emphasizes that these are real people that you’re watching having sex and having fun. Hearing the participants explain what made them want to do porn and how they were feeling post-scene was a wonderful experience that I really appreciated being able to see.

I also love that there is a male-bodied individual in one of the scenarios. I noticed a post on the forum about this as well (another great feature to have on a sex-positive very women-friendly porn site, the ability to converse with other members about the porn and just about anything). The forum post had the title “Do men belong in dyke porn?” It wasn’t someone complaining, just wanting to know what the others there thought. There were quite a few responses, including this one from Bren Ryder the creator of GDP:

“Women like different things and some may argue that there shouldn’t be a dildo or there shouldn’t be cake or there shouldn’t be young beautiful femme women with perfect bodies or there shouldn’t be a scene where a bio-guy is dressed up like a woman and then gets fucked in the ass.
I say there absolutely should be all of those things and MORE. Anything that serves our queer fantasies. ”

The majority of others on the forum agreed with her and I couldn’t agree with her more. I was extremely surprised and excited to see a femmed-up male-bodied person in dyke porn! If you’ve been reading me for a while you know that I’ve been talking a lot recently about the queer ways in which males and females can interact sexually, so I love having a video on a dyke site to point to exactly that!

I think Good Dyke Porn is an amazing site full of wonderful videos enjoyable to everyone even remotely queer (and in my world that’s just about everyone). If you haven’t, I highly recommend you go check out the site, look at the samples, sign up for the forums, and maybe even buy some clips. You know you want to.

A Very Good Thing: Inclusive Art Series

Forgive the Martha Stewart reference; I couldn’t resist.

I’m a self-taught sewer. This means that I’ve made a lot of really bad stuff. But, on the other hand, I’m a classically trained painter, and I’ve made a lot of truly tragic paintings too, so I’m not sure that means much. However, I will say, that the circumstances that make for good art always come our failures.

About a year ago, I started work on an embroidered self portrait. I don’t really think when I’m creating, but somehow that is when I manage to work out all my inner nonsense. At that point last year I was struggling a bit with some femme identity issues, and so creating a piece about myself was really a balm for me. While I was working on this particular piece it occurred to me that I had a full project already planned out.

I want to learn more about female identity: the loss of it, the removal of it, the ignoring of it, the embracing of it, the presentation of it, the acceptance of it, the different ways it can be interpreted, and the emotions associated with it, etc. etc. etc. What I am asking for is your help. I need your participation.

The purpose of the series is to present various perspectives on female identity through the medium of what is commonly thought of as a traditional female medium: hand embroidery. These perspectives will be presented by a nude embroidered portrait with an accompanying anonymous paragraph authored by the participant. Each portrait will be placed in a shadowbox environment with the anonymous paragraph.

I am requesting that anyone who feels a reaction to the phrase “female identity” participate. Originally, I had planned to list all the various labels we as a community use for ourselves and mention that these are welcome to participate. But, then I realized that so many of us reject labels, or don’t fit into labels, and truly this is about inclusion.

Please submit a paragraph (or more, but please understand that it may have to be edited) about how you respond to female identity. I know this is a wide area, so feel free to put what is most poignant to you. Next, I ask that you send me a picture of yourself. This does not have to be a nude portrait; but I do ask that I be able to roughly gauge your body (are you tall, short, thick, thin, curvy?). Since the portrait is to be nude, I would humbly request that you let me know in which manner you would like your most private areas represented (cisgendered, lesbian, trans-femme pre-op and the like are perfectly fine –I’m pretty quick on the uptake). It is also perfectly okay to indicate that you prefer this remain private. In this case, the portrait will depict an undergarment.

Please send your information to: hinterland.femme@gmail.com

Your identity will remain completely private; no one will know your identity save myself. All participants will be personally contacted by me as soon as their portrait is finished (so you will be able to preview a bit of the final product). When a showing of the series is to be presented all participants will be invited.

I really do hope that if you have any response to this that you do participate. The more viewpoints the series has, the more powerful it will be. I think that we have so many people today that go under-voiced, or go unrecognized. . . And, let me just say this: “I want to hear you.”

Please note that in submitting to this series it is with the understanding that you will not retain any legal rights to the paragraph you send, or to the doll created from the information you send.

And, just to be fair. . .here I am:
