'Sex isn't something men do to you. It isn't
something men get out of you. Sex is something you dive into with gusto
and like it every bit as much as he does.'
(Nina Hartley, addressing a group of women)

Nina Hartley: Her Official
Website

From
the website: 'Nina Hartley (born Marie Louise Hartman on March 11, 1959
in Berkeley, California) is an American pornographic actress, pornographic
film director, feminist and sex educator.
She made her foray into the world of pornographic movies in 1984. Her debut performance was in the film Educating Nina which was a massive hit. Since then she has gone on to feature in over 400 first-run adult films, and has become one of the most enduring and recognizable performers in the industry.
She is best known within the adult film industry for her 'bubble butt' (often referred to as the 'best ass in the business') and anal, interracial and lesbian scenes.
Politically, Hartley is a socialist and outspoken sex-positive feminist. Hartley has been an advocate for the adult film industry's right to exist, and, prior to the rise to stardom of Jenna Jameson, had often been called upon when television news programs and talk shows required an articulate, leading adult film actress to support the pro side. In addition to her more traditional roles in porn films, she has also produced, directed, and starred in a series of Guide to ... films covering the entire sexual spectrum, from basic sexual intercourse and foreplay, to anal intercourse and bondage.
Hartley is openly bisexual in her private life, and had what has been described as the longest stable relationship in the adult business, living in a ménage à trois with her husband Dave, and wife Bobby Lilly for 20 years. Hartley has since left that relationship and has since married Ira Levine (aka Ernest Greene), a director of porn films, particularly BDSM films.'

Hartley Biography
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nina_Hartley
From the essay: 'It was with a growing sense of outrage that I read Prof.Chyng Sun's report of her visit to the Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas. I couldn't help wondering it the author had done any prior research whatsoever into the active, twenty-year debate among women over the impact of pornography on their individual lives and their status as a gender. There's nothing new in her indignation, nothing fresh in her insights and nothing unfamiliar in her arguments. As a sex-worker and sex-worker advocate for over two decades, I've heard and read it all before.
.. Professor Sun's reportage dwells at length on the most distasteful aspects of what she saw and heard, but makes no mention of any attempt to establish direct communication with any of the women who work in the adult video industry. No wonder she finds it so effortless to ignore our opinions and dismiss our perceptions of our own lives. It's that much easier to characterize all female sex workers as degraded, humiliated and unhappy if you've never talked to any of us. That we might be involved in constructive, effective efforts to improve our own working conditions, and that our employers might take our concerns seriously, clearly doesn't fit Professor Sun's pre-cut template for who we are.
Likewise, none of the diversity of our vibrant, raucous and contentious creative culture seems to have attracted Professor Sun's notice. By focusing on one or two examples she finds particularly heinous, she obscures the broader truth, which is that the marketplace of sexual entertainment contains products for almost every taste and orientation, including material made by and for heterosexual women and couples, lesbians and gay men. It's not all Bang Bus, and by no means does all of it, or even most of it, conform to the author's notions of 'porn as expression of misogyny.'

Analyse
any human emotion, no matter how far it may be removed from the sphere of
sex, and you are sure to discover somewhere the primal impulse, to which
life owes its perpetuation. ... The primitive stages can always be re-established;
the primitive mind is, in the fullest meaning of the word, imperishable.
... Mans most disagreeable habits and idiosyncrasies, his deceit, his cowardice,
his lack of reverence, are engendered by his incomplete adjustment to a
complicated civilisation. It is the result of the conflict between our instincts
and our culture. (Sigmund Freud)
