Thanks so much to journalist Paula Vaarkamp (IG @paulaproduceert) at one of Holland’s biggest online newspapers, RTL Nieuws. Vaarkamp features director Jennifer Lyon Bell in her article about the success of female-friendly porn:
“Vrouwvriendelijke porno: Porna steeds populairder: ‘Er is meer aandacht voor voorspel’”. (Female-Friendly Porn: ‘Porna’ Grows Even More Popular – ‘There’s More Attention To Foreplay.’”)
Alongside interviews with audio erotica platform Rouse’s Eva de Visser and sexologist Jolien Spoelstra, the article explorers the surprising success of alternative porn that appeals to women as well to to men.
Vaarkamp did a great job clarifying the relationship between Jennifer’s definitions of “Porna“ and “alternative/ethical porn“, and outlining Jennifers belief about what distinguishes mainstream porn from alternative porn. Hint – it’s not necessarily the sex acts.
