- What I can say is that most so-called "bi porn" is recycled junk from
- your typical hetero- and phallocentric imaginations. You know, women
- who aren't satisfied 'til the man shows up, etc. Some do seem to be gay
- male produced, and these suffer from the usual pitfalls of that (that is,
- no plot, awful dialogue, and so on). There's a dreadful series called
- _The Best Bi Far_ that exemplifies this. It's like watching
- marionettes copulate. Not too great. I remember a witty poster to
- soc.motss long ago saying "this stuff could be the one thing that puts
- me off sex forever."
-
- All that said, I've heard that there are *some* good shows to be seen
- out there. I liked one called _Night Trips II_, but I suspect my
- memory is colored by the fact that I was with a terribly attractive
- person at the time. We were driven nuts with lust, and, shy fools we,
- did nothing. Until the following weekend. :) Warning, this is a
- pretty heterocentric show, though it has some exclusively lesbian
- scenes. Has fewer of those annoying come shots. (Why, by god, must
- people be assured that yes, sure as shit, HE REALLY CAME! Ugh.)
-
- If anyone else has recommendations, I think this is a worthwhile
- thread--soc.motss compiles lists occasionally. I think the only way
- we're going to get erotic material with a feminist/bi/etc. slant is
- for those who *have* the perspective to *make* the stuff. Any takers?

- P.S. That wasn't meant as a come-on there, just a challenge to the
- filmically-abled. I suppose I wouldn't turn down an acting or writing
- offer . . . .
