Friday, January 30th, 2009

In last month’s poll, we asked: What are your sexy resolutions this year?

Loving yourself better. That was the message loud and clear.

You can see all the results here.

This month we ask: What are your plans for Valentine’s Day this year?

Vote now! The poll is on Fatale’s home page.

And we’ll give you the results next time.

Until then, we wish you dazzling hot sex,

Shipping Special Ends Today – Curve Review

Thursday, January 15th, 2009

Just a quick reminder that today, January 15, 2009, is the last day for Fatale’s shipping special. That’s free, fast shipping within the U.S. and its territories and half-price outside the U.S. No minimums. Promise.

It’s a good deal! Go for it!

Two tidbits from Curve this month:

One Night StandIn case you didn’t see the January/February issue of Curve magazine, they did a fabulous review of One Night Stand, saying:

Hot femmes and andro girls all get it on in this movie, with strap-ons, fisting, black gloves and more.

“This is the new wave of LGBT porn.”

Champion DVDThe interview with Madison Young, of Shine Louise Houston’s new DVD Champion, is a good one. Madison plays the sexy bottom to Syd’s wrestling-top self, and the scene gets the DVD off to a good start.

Champion is now available at Fatale—in stock and ships within 24 hours. We had a slight delay on getting the new Champion lesbian DVD in, but all’s well now.

In case you’re wondering, next week we’ll be celebrating Barack Obama’s inauguration with about a dozen friends…and a big bottle of Champagne! We were glad to see that the New Hampshire gay bishop Gene Robinson would be participating at the Lincoln Memorial event this weekend, too. 

Yours in good love and sex,

Deborah Sundahl Hits AEE at CES 2009

Thursday, January 15th, 2009

Deborah Sundahl at CES 2009
Deborah Sundahl – a.k.a. Fanny Fatale – headed to Las Vegas last week for the Adult Entertainment Expo at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES).

“For three days,” she says, “I sat in seminars and listened to important discussions about the women’s market for porn. Yet when the Big 4 executives—from Hot Movies, Hustler and other big companies—sat down at a panel, not one word was mentioned about women or the women’s market. It’s like women don’t exist for them. Only the Internet and men.”

What does this mean? Deborah thinks the big boys are out of touch, that women do represent an important factor in the adult market. Since the days of the anti-porn crowds, many, many years ago, women have come into their own vis-à-vis adult.

Friends Deborah ran into in Las Vegas include Nina Hartley, Tristan Taormino, Kim Airs and the gals at Babeland. 

Two more pictures of Deborah in Las Vegas:

One Night Stand Reviews

Thursday, January 15th, 2009

One Night StandTwo excellent reviews of Fatale’s latest DVD, One Night Stand.

“The film’s various scenes are downright delicious, definitely a cut above what I’ve come to expect of queer porn… The chemistry in the final scene is electrifying… Really the whole film is beautifully shot, with lots of great angles, especially impressive considering it’s a DIY… All in all, One Night Stand is a true treat, and definitely a must for the collection of any queer porn connoisseur.”
    –SexGeek, “Finally a One Night Stand”

“This is the new wave of LGBT porn.”
    —Curve, January/February 2009 issue

Until next time, we wish you dazzling hot sex.

Happy New Year!

Thursday, January 1st, 2009

To celebrate the New Year, we decided to say an extra thank you and extend our free-shipping offer to you through January 15th. The rates remain half-price outside the U.S.

Have you been thinking about gratitude lately? We have. We’re lucky to work in this sexy business with creative movie makers and passionate, loyal customers like you. Thank you.

Champion DVDWe’re excited to tell you about the new Shine Louise Houston DVD. Champion is the perfect DVD to whet your New Year’s whistle. Champion diverges from the Crash Pad setting and moves into the world of lesbian martial arts fighting with some very steamy bedroom scenes. Read more about Champion.

And in case you missed Shine’s Crash Pad Series Volume 3, it’s worth checking out! 

If you’re like us, you probably didn’t get some of the goodies you’d hoped for this season. So treat yourself this New Year and indulge.

After some hectic travel and fun Christmas parties, our Christmas was intimate and cozy, just the two of us this year, and that made it perfectly romantic.

Yes, we watched Champion and one of our favorites, Afterschool Special and Turn Me Up Over and On. Yes, it was a fabulous holiday.

And don’t forget—you get free shipping on all DVDs through January 15th. No minimums – our promise and our gift to you.  

Happy New Year!

Ask Fanny – Tantra for the New Year

Thursday, January 1st, 2009

Some of you are interested in slowing down and going deeper into your sexuality, your erotic desires and your intimacy with a partner. For those of you who are ready or curious, Tantra is your ticket.

Here for the New Year are Five Principles of Tantric Sex to contemplate:

Breathe
The vast majority of people hold their breath when they are sexually excited or about to have that orgasm. Tantra teaches the opposite: breathing will lengthen and heighten your sensual pleasure and your orgasm.

Relax
Most folks tense up when they are trying to have an orgasm – especially when we use a vibrator. Tantra teaches how to have exquisite orgasms by doing the opposite: relaxing.  Relaxing into pleasure. Breathe. Relax.

Open Your Body to Sensation
When we tense and don’t breathe, we feel fewer sensations, and therefore need more stimulation (like a vibrator or harder cracks on the ass) to become aroused. Tantra teaches the body to become nearly electric with sensation when it is touched.  Breathe. Relax. Feel More Pleasure.

Circulate Erotic Energy throughout Your Body
Why let that large pool of erotic sensation stay in the genital area? That aroused state is energy, and it is delicious. Tantra teaches how to expand that energy beyond your genitals and into the rest of your body. That feel-good pleasure is healing to every cell, as well.  Breathe. Relax. Feel More Pleasure. Have a BodyGasm.

Resources
My two favorite books:
Tantra Between the Sheets by Val Sampson
The Essential Tantra by Kenneth Ray Stubbs and Kyle Spencer

My favorite video:
A two-set by Margot Anand, the French-born and Sorbonne-bred lady who brought the old ancient Tantra tradition to America in a modern form: Secret Keys to the Ultimate Love Life.

My favorite educational Web site: Tantra.com

May your new year find you slowing down, vibing in and turning on with greater depth and pleasure.

Remembering

Some of our influences and friends who died in 2008 include –

Odetta
Blues and folk singer Odetta, whom we had the pleasure of seeing perform live in Upstate New York many years ago.

Paula Gunn Allen
Paula Gunn Allen, who inspired us with her Native American lesbian sensibility.

Phyllis Lyon and Del Martin (right)

Bettie Page
The exquisite Bettie Page, the source of inspiration for at least one performer in Fatale’s films.

These monumental women have inspired and spurred us through the years. We mourn their passing.
