Warning: This review is an adult film review that is highly explicit in nature. This review also contains visuals that are pornographic in nature and shouldn’t be viewed by anyone under the age of 18 (or 21 in your respective locale) or by anyone who is not comfortable with seeing or reading about adult films.
Tristan Taormino is the first adult film director that I had an immense curiosity about. While I am a woman (and feminist) who openly enjoys porn, most of my porn-viewing experience has been limit to your run of the mill, cue bad 80′s music and watching people merely go through the motions without looking like they are really enjoying themselves. Of what I’ve read of Tristan Taormino, an openly feminist porn director herself, her films are nothing like what you get in the mail for free when you buy a sex toy from a sex toy megashop.
I was immediately intrigued by Taormino’s Rough Sex, since the name really says it all. Who doesn’t enjoy seeing some intense, rough fucking? I know I do and I’m generally more into the BDSM world when it comes to not only my personal bedroom preference, but also my viewing pleasure. Rough Sex is comprised of a phenomenal cast, including Adrianna Nicole, Satine Phoenix, Francesca Le and Sasha Grey, whom I think is undeniably gorgeous and who I really, really wanted to see perform.
What sets Rough Sex apart from most porn out there, is that Taormino interviewed each woman before showing their scene, asking them what their fantasies were, what they wanted to capture on film and even who they wanted in the scenes with them. To give your actors total control over what they wanted this film to be and how they want to appear in it, and even who they see themselves acting in the scenes with is absolutely amazing and increases the chemistry the actors have significantly. To see people really enjoying themselves and each other is something anyone can get off to.
In the first scene, we see Adrianna Nicole and Marco Banderas. After Adrianna Nicole’s interview, we see her getting into the shower, inserting a butt plug before stepping in, as if she knows what is going to happen and instead of what we see next giving us the impression that it is nonconsentual, we know that by her doing this it is really something that is set up and completely consentual. Banderas walks into the house and sneaks up on Nicole in the shower. The scene is full of blowjobs, hair pulling, even a Hitachi Magic Wand and while I didn’t necessarily enjoy Marco Banderas, who to me is just a little too modelesque and metrosexual for my liking and who I don’t necessarily see as the “intruder” type, especially considering his sex face is a little crazy and funny looking, the two did have great chemistry on film.
The second scene features Satine Phoenix, whose ultimate fantasy is to get fucked while stranded out in the desert after her car breaks down. She is joined by Derrick Pierce, an extremely muscle-bound, tattooed and beautiful man. This scene surprised me, because while it left little to the imagination and we knew they would end up in a much-heated fuck fest, I was surprised and extremely turned on for Pierce to really go for it, slapping, pinching and scratching and holding very little back. Throughout the scene we see Satine Phoenix have welts rise up and scratch marks are left on her skin, which I loved. Another thing that really made this scene work for me is the amount of dirty talk that came from Derrick Pierce. He is surely someone I would love to check out in other films, as long as they are control-based scenes that he obviously does remarkably well.
But guys aren’t the only ones in control in Rough Sex. The third scene is a femdom scene by Francesca Le and Christian. Christian, who is the powerful, corporate drone by day comes home to his neglected wife and while he’s yelling at someone on the phone, she changes into a sexy piece of black lingerie, thigh-highs and gloves. In this scene, Francesca Le is degrading Christian and is chock-full of verbal commends. There is spanking and paddling, foot worship and a whole lot of spitting.
Scene four features Marie Luv and Julius Ceazher. The scene revolves around Marie Luv getting caught cheating on her boyfriend and he makes her pay via verbal degredation, slapping, a blowjob and very raw, intense passion and fucking. This is one of the best scenes of the entire film, just because of the amount of verbal attacks and solid chemistry.
The last scene is saved for Sasha Grey and Danny Wylde. This is a switch scene; at first Danny Wylde is seen with the upper-hand, choking Sasha Grey after playing pool and talking about rough sex. Sasha Grey divulges that one of her hard limits is breast slapping, but after they quickly get into the fucking, Danny Wylde slaps her breasts (after a rimjob given by Sasha Grey, which is incredibly, incredibly hot!) and that’s when the switch happens. Immediately noticing his mistake, Sasha Grey takes control, making him pay for his mistake. Several times in the scene we see the two smiling at each other, which shows the amount of chemistry between these two actors and really sells them as a couple who are enjoying themselves and who are enjoying the power being placed over them by each other.
Rough Sex is something for everyone and anyone who has ever had the intense need to be dominated or to dominate over a partner. It’s exciting, passionate, surprising, rewarding and incredibly hot. It’s porn you can actually get off to, instead of just ending up laughing at or wondering how someone got where and why are they all of a sudden fucking. This was my first look into the work of Tristan Taormino and I can’t wait to see more.

Erotic fantasies are completely natural and could very well spice up your love life and satisfy you in ways that you had never anticipated before. A great deal of people are a little put off by the erotic fantasies that they have; they often have feelings of shame about them and think they are too weird to vocalize, especially if they happen to fall in the alternative lifestyle category. It could take a while for people to feel comfortable divulging their most intimate and erotic fantasies to their partners, but if you find someone that either likes the same things in the bedroom as you’ve been thinking about wanting to try or you find someone who is very willing to carry out your fantasies for you, well then you just may find yourself floating on Cloud 9.
There are many people who are very into the alternative lifestyle scene and the reason why it is called ‘alternative’ or is considered ‘underground’ is because society has not yet opened its eyes to really see that fantasy and fetishes are actually completely normal and very rewarding between consenting adults. This is also the reason why when you walk into your run of the mill sex shop, if you’re not too shy to walk into one that is, you will find a great deal of toys and sex-life-altering objects that are mostly geared towards men and what men like–lots of girl-on-girl adult films, Fleshlights, and very run of the mill sex toys for women which can be satisfying for women, but is not the end all and be all of sex toys. A lot of people want more and sex toy shops, operating within the harsh glance of society have yet to take the needs and wants of people who enjoy fantasy and fetish play seriously. It can be very difficult to find a safe space to shop in when looking for toys and gear of this caliber; a great deal of people look online because in the online world, almost nothing is off limits and you are free to explore your most intimate desires; but even a great deal of online sex toy shops are lacking in this particular category. That is why I was so pleasantly surprised to find Mind Mistress’ Transformation Castle, which is only part of an entire brand that encompasses everything you could ever want when it comes to erotic fantasy, regardless of sexual orientation or preference or gender identity.
Mind Mistress Linda is a professional hypnotist who has created an entire magical wonderland of delight; a space for everybody to be free to be themselves in a safe space and to either start or explore the stops on their journey to sexual discovery or fantasy. She has successfully created an outstanding adult entertainment space for the alternative lifestyle community that so very often feel that they have no space at all to truly explore their fetishes and fantasies and also discover how to become the person, practically or strictly in the bedroom, that they desire to be.
Mind Mistress’ Transformation Castle is your all-in-one, one-stop-shop for everything you could ever possibly need or want on your journey; from sexy games to play with your partner, party and holiday fantasy and sex kits, lingerie and other bedroom apparel and accessories, beauty products, lingerie, bondage wear, restraints, sex furniture, whips and paddles, sex toys, and also what just so happens to be her specialty (note her name), hypnosis CDs and DVDs.
Mind Mistress’ Adult Hypnotic Wishes is perhaps the most in-depth line of erotic hypnosis products I have ever seen before. You can see the passion Mind Mistress Linda has for the work that she does and the belief that every single person with a “weird, freaky fetish” should have a space that they can feel totally safe in. I commend her so much for creating such a space because while I have seen adult erotic hypnosis websites in the past, I have not seen one so dedicated to the alternative lifestyle community. She offers adult hypnosis for just about anything you have either fantasized about or have made a lifestyle of, including slave girl hypnosis which increases submissiveness in submissive women and feminized males, French maid training, slutty schoolgirl training, hypnosis training in how to become an exhibitionist, as well as many others. She has also created a line of hypnosis trainings for practical use, including weight loss and how to stop smoking. She is also available for live, one-on-one phone or in-person hypnosis trainings.
Mind Mistress Linda’s entire line of websites, hypnosis CDs, products and apparel can all be access by the Entrance to Wonderland and Wonderland is certainly the best name for what she has created. I also particularly love how right on her website, are several sections debunking hypnosis myths with all of the things people skeptical to the concept of hypnosis say when the topic arises, such as they can’t be hypnotized or that it only works on weak people and won’t on them. In Mind Mistress Linda’s Wonderland, anything is possible and available right at your fingertips and if you don’t believe her, she’ll show you how.
Rammstein’s new box set, Liebe Ist Für Alle Da is very much unlike any other box set I have ever seen put out by any band before. For instance, it includes not just music, but the metal case is filled with handcuffs, lube and six pink dildos!
If that weren’t hysterical enough, as Daily Swarm put it, the six pink dildos are supposed to “reflect the sizes of the six members’ wienerwursts.” Not just that, but the German to English translation of Liebe Ist Für Alle Da is Love is for everyone.
I am always entertained by Rammstein. Some of their music is really incredible, but above anything else, they entertain me and if there’s something that is truly hard to attain as a band, it is to thought of as having excellent music as well as the ability to entertain the pants off of your audience.
So what do you think of the new Rammstein box set? Are you as entertained by it as I am?
For any Rammstein fans out there, you can purchase the box set, but it’s going to put you out around $400.
Becoming comfortable enough with your partner to introduce some kink into your sex life can take some time. Whether it is your decision or your partner’s, or if you’ve both mutually decided it was time to try something new in the bedroom, this is an exciting, titillating, and completely new time in your sex life… and definitely an experience you will want to enjoy.
The Experimental Kink Set is a perfect set for couples new to kink and any sort of power and sensation play, guaranteed to send your senses through the roof. It includes a padded leather blindfold, adjustable leather cuffs that measure 5-1/2”-7” to fit most people’s wrists, and an ostrich feather that sends amazing tickling sensations over your body.
This set is great for virtually everyone who wants to get a little kinky. The padded leather blindfold is very comfortable so you won’t mind wearing it for an extended amount of time. The strap on the back of the blindfold that holds it in place around your head will slip if you’re moving a lot. The adjustable leather cuffs will fit most people’s wrists and are held together by a clasp, making them comfortable to wear and they are also extremely resistant and will not break easily at all.
I absolutely love the Experimental Kink Set and, as you can tell from my past reviews, I am not a beginner, making this set perfect for all kink and power play, and sensation play levels.
When it comes to whips and floggers for kinky, partnered play, it is important to find out what toys are best for you and the experience you are looking to have. Some whips are harder than others and leave bruises you don’t want. Others are too soft, lacking the “good sting” you’re looking for. It is also important to find a whip of a good size; something that is easy to grip and long enough to hold onto so if you’re using it on your partner, you’re far enough away from it so you don’t get hurt in the process.
The large rubber whip from Babeland is 22 inches in size and the perfect whip for kinky, partnered play both for beginners who are just looking to try something new and explore new fantasies as well as for experts in the BDSM lifestyle.
With a steady hand and a little restraint, it is very easy to start with light and even sensual strokes on your partner and steadily progress to intense strokes. What I especially like about this whip is that no matter how hard you have this whip used on your body, it will not bruise; the only kind of bruising I have noticed is a deep redness that lasted for not even an hour.
No matter how experienced or “into” kink you are, this is undoubtedly the whip to look into.
My boyfriend and I like to experiment with a lot of different types of sex toys; the way we see it, if you haven’t tried it there is no knowing if you’ll like it or not and so we shop frequently for toys that will bring something new and exciting to the bedroom. We recently added a small pinwheel to our collection of toys. Upon first glance, this Pinwheel is scary, not only that, but I was scared of it. What you initially see before purchasing the Pinwheel is not what you really expect, as sometimes pictures can look a little more intense than the actual toy itself, but the Pinwheel was everything it looks to be and more.
Taking the Pinwheel out of its packaging, I very hesitantly glided my finger over the wheel fully equipped with steel points–Twenty-two of them, to be exact and my first reaction was to quickly get my hand away from it; the feeling of it is intense and not what I expected in the least. Showing it to my boyfriend, I told him how our new toy may be a little too scary for me to be able to indulge in with him, but he just saw that as a challenge, as he does with pretty much everything and dropped the subject–Little did I know, he had some other plans with it.
Being the protector that he is and knowing that I was afraid to introduce our new toy to our bedroom, we played around with it for a bit before re-introducing it to me. He explained that he literally tried to break his skin open with it to see if it was possible. By touching the Pinwheel you would immediately believe that it could not only pierce, but go through your flesh and cause some major injury, but he assured me that while he was testing it out on his arm, he could not get it to break the skin and he then explained that it was the positioning of the points which made that possible; if the points were a little more spaced out, he said that it would definitely go through the skin but it is set up to be completely safe for all partners. Knowing this information settled me into the idea of the Pinwheel.
After getting over the initial shock of it’s intimidating, stainless steel appearance, the Pinwheel could very well become an asset in your bedroom. It gives you a full body sensation I am willing to bet you have never had the pleasure of feeling before. For most couples, I would say not to start off foreplay with it, as it is a bit intimidating even to the touch if you are not already worked up, but after a little foreplay, run it over the back and chest of your partner and they will be squealing in delight!
The Pinwheel also comes with a sheath, which you can either purchase with the wheel or purchase seperately. I would definitely recommend purchasing the set, especially if you are like me and keep your toys in one box or container so it isn’t so exposed and out in the open for everyone to see because if you reach your hand into your box without your Pinwheel being covered, you are most likely going to prick your finger on the wheel and think that you have some crazy creature hiding in your sex toy box.
Overall, I have to say the Pinwheel is an intimidating toy at first, but after a little warming up, it is a handy tool to have around either for BDSM couples or even for those who prefer a more sensitive touch, it works both ways because you or your partner controls the pressure. It is definitely fun and something not to be overlooked if you’re craving a brand new sensation.

Bondage can be a great experience between two consenting adults who of course, trust each other to the point where bondage can be an exciting, positive experience. Most people who don’t know much about bondage or who have thought about it but haven’t read up on it too much yet may think that a lot more goes into bondage play than what actually does.
When it comes to restraints, there are many different options available. Many people don’t want to handle heavy, difficult equipment, especially those just starting out in their bondage experiences. The thought of this type of play may scare someone who has never engaged in it to begin with and the last thing someone of this nature wants to have to maneuver is heavy equipment and rope has a tendency to dig into your wrists and ankles, leaving them raw and sore for hours or even days after. Tape is another viable option, but who wants to rip tape off of their bodies after play time is over? No one! It’s like ripping off 100 band-aids at the same time! But now there’s a new type of bondage tape available that has eased more people into bondage play with their partners and has been satisfying bondage enthusiasts just the same.
This bondage tape ($20) is unique in the sense that it clings to nothing but itself. No more ripping tape off of your skin or out of your hair and pulling a few hundred strands of hair out with it. No more ropes cutting off your circulation and digging into your skin and no need for heavy and complicated equipment. This small product will satisfy any couple engaging in bondage play; enthusiasts and beginners both will have an overall pleasurable experience with this lightweight, quick, easy, and reusable 2″ wide tape.
For just $20 this bondage tape is an absolute steal. You receive an abundant amount and the tape is also reusable so you are sure not to run out for quite some time. The tape does come off very easily and does not affect your skin whatsoever since there is no sticky glue anywhere. The tape clings to itself very easily and is extremely secure so when you’re in the heat of the moment, the tape isn’t going to budge; I’ve had under the bed restraints that didn’t work as well as this tape because this tape doesn’t break and if it does, I haven’t reached it’s breaking point yet.

Please remember that whenever engaging in any variation of bondage play to only participate with a partner you know and trust and to use a safe word so your partner knows if and when you need to stop.
