Link List Housecleaning

Just a small announcement. We’re working on checking over the extensive link list we have here, archiving dead sites and in some cases reclassifying entries. We’ve split model sites out into two groups, one for portfolio sites and that sort of thing, and the other list is for girls that have their own membership sites.

FedorasBox: Post

For those that haven’t had the pleasure yet, you should all take a moment and go check out our friend Fedora’s site FedorasBox. It’s a growing eclectic mix of thoughtful blogging, erotic photography, and more. I like it’s cozy feel and I think some of you will enjoy what she’s up to as well.

On Christmas, I met people and got/gave presents. There was food, wine, and conversation. Oh, and there was a stockpile of hugs. Aww…The day after Christmas, I had a naked photo shoot with Elora. Isaac from California photographed us. We cuddled in corners and in front of my fireplace, many images to come.I have manifested a group shoot for fedorasbox.com in a swanky house on a nearby island. If you want to model, let me know. Yesterday, Peter Birch came over and he took my picture. It was fun dressing up in men’s clothes…and masks…Who here is a fan of Robert Anton Wilson? I am reading Ishtar Rising and it is totally great. (I am such a nerd with my silly silly adjectives.) Anyway, this book is about human sexuality from a pragmatic and biological perspective…that and lots of one-two-punch.Oh! I bought a webcam today. So, yeah. Stick that under your hat.I am going to go watch Balls of Fury, now; so, have a good night.

AltPorn Question: Branding Models

At what point is it ok for a site to make their name become part of the girl’s name? Is it a certain number of sets and/or videos? Is it only ok for the first one she was on? The last one she was on? Is it exclusivity? What happens if she then appears on another site? Does she get a divorce and change her name? Some sites seem to feel like their girls really belong to them, and some even seem to have contracts that amount to just that. Others simply pressure girls with threats of disinclusion and hostility. A surprising number of girls even take on certain site names and site initials in their MySpace profile names and other social network services. I’ve even had girls introduce themselves to me, using their site surname. “Hi, I’m Becky Starbucks” That would be weird, so why has it become such a trend in Alt? Some sites are more pushy about this than others and some don’t seem to do it at all. Isn’t branding a girl with a product name kind of the opposite of what this is all supposed to be about? A girl could be Penthouse Pet of the Year, but nobody would expect her to go around calling herselve Ivana Penthouse. What’s up with that? When should it be ok?
