Violet Blue nails it

Proving why she's one of Wired's Sexiest Geeks of 2005, Violet Blue posts about Tribe.net's new guidelines for adult material and hits on the topic du jour (in my head):

I don't do Fleshbot for the money (that's for sure). I do it because our attitude toward sex and culture, adult fun, and intelligent sex speaks to the very core of ethics that make me who I am. And it's free, and accessible -- if you don't have access to information, *you're* not free. For many women, the cage has been their own bodies; I regularly have contact with women who have been alive for many decades who have still never had an orgasm. Many women (and men) are still afraid of their own bodies, or are disgusted by their genitals because no one ever told them that what they have is not only beautiful down there, but fun and healthy and totally normal and that pleasure is good for you. And porn is a healthy, if sometimes annoyingly bimbonic, component of shedding sexual ignorance and learning to make healthy choices about individual sex and sexuality.

She also did her own year's sexiest geeks post and used the word "lubricious" (AND included the fabulous Annalee Newitz).

There are so many reasons to adore Violet - one of mine is for writing in her introduction to Best Women's Erotica 2006 (which contains my story "Spike" that I mentioned here): "While compiling this heady colletion of hot erotica, I purchased a container of buttercream frosting body butter and wore some behind my ears throughout. Like the delicious sweetness of a warm, fluffy cupcake, a whiff of a particularly memorable story would catch up with me while waiting at a crosswalk for a light ot change, or in a quiet moment between kisses . . .

I hope you enjoy the results of me running totally sexually amok putting together the stories in Best Women's Erotica 2006. I filled it with erotica that turns my head around and makes me want to fuck, or at least thrust a few fingers in my panties for a little squeeze. Erotica like a stolen fingerful of frosting. Erotica for girls like me.
