SAN FRANCISCO — Good Vibrations announced that it is sponsoring the 2014 Feminist Porn Conference, set for April 5-6 at the University of Toronto.
The company said that it takes pride in providing accurate sexual health information and quality sex toys, and is excited about bringing together academics, students, cultural critics, sex workers, activists, fans, performers, directors, and producers to explore the intersections between feminism and pornography, as well as feminist porn as a genre, industry, and movement.
Good Vibrations noted that it has created a large selection of feminist porn and offers discreet viewing on multiple platforms on its digital content portal — GoodVibrationsVOD.com.
"There has been a movement for the past 30 years with historical significance that has finally burst into the mainstream where glossy magazines like Shape and Glamour ask us where to find better and more feminist-centric adult content, and we proudly have an answer for you with our video on demand site," said Jackie Strano, executive vice president and executive producer of the site.
She added, "Feminist is the other 'F' word to some people but to us it means ethically produced, women friendly, and featuring women directors and alternative sexual representation and diversity of all desires, genders, and orientations."
Good Vibrations noted that it was also recently featured in a Shape magazine article called "The New Porn That Will Transform Your Life."
The Feminist Porn Conference, founded and produced by Tristan Taormino in conjunction with The Mark S. Bonham Centre for Sexual Diversity Studies, is held annually at the University of Toronto.
