Sweden Funded Feminist Porno

Feminist pornography might sound like an oxymoron, but a new movie funded by Swedish taxpayers hopes to fit that description. Dirty Diaries, which premiered in Stockholm last night, is a collection of 12 short pornographic films shot by feminist documentary director Mia Engberg. The $70,000 film was funded by Swedish taxpayers through the Swedish Film Institute. What makes Dirty Diaries feminist, according to Engberg, is that it displays women's sexuality in a natural way and shuns mainstream porn's sexist tendency to treat women as objects. Engberg said the film was “about showing sexuality through a female's perspective. It's not made to please a male audience and it's not made to make money.”

Let me summarize: take 2 hot chicks and have them engage each other and you get what the Swedish government WON'T fund.

Now take 2 ugly chicks and have them engage each other and you get what the Swedish government WILL fund.

There is no such thing as a Swedish chick who isn't hot.

I support the Swedes and their open-minded approach to film-making. I hope Obama is open-minded enough to directs a few million in "stimulus" funds into similar efforts in the U.S.

No kidding. Maybe when he gets out of hand, we can send him a link to a porn site and the world will be at peace once again.

If the Swedes think there could be a type of porn that doesn't please a male audience, they're in for a learning experience.

Straight guys will get stimulated by gay porn. They get stimulated by bras on clotheslines. There's nothing that won't please a male audience.

Cool, I just checked this out on-line: http://www.dirtydiaries.se/

Looks good but trust me, it's porn. Calling it "Feminist" porn is just a PC way of saying "I like to watch people haveing sex but don't want anyone to think I'm a pervert". Porn for intelectual reasons is still porn.

Wow. I saw what appeared to be real penetration, albeit only briefly.

It was actually kind of beautiful, at least the bit I watched.

I'm a socialist, of course, but even I would hesitate about having the state fund pornography, although as a libertarian I don't care if adults look at it on their own--provided there are no minors involved, or people being coerced by organized crime.
