We received a letter from a reader recently that said in part:

“I’m not sure if you can help me with this, but I’m looking for a movie or movies that have group sex scenes where butches take turns having their way with a femme (strap-on etc.).”

Here’s a list of Fatale’s top-selling DVDs that feature lesbian group sex scenes:

1. Hard Love and How to F*ck in High Heels – S.I.R. Video’s tour de force mixes it up with lots of butch/femme action on Hard Love and some nice group scenes in How to Fuck in High Heels.

2. Afterschool Special and Turn Me Up Over and On – Afterschool Special is one of the best amateur group scenes we’ve seen in a long time. On the same DVD as Turn Me Up, a sweet butch/femme moment.

3. Bathroom Sluts – This classic lesbian title has five women who explore group sex in – you guessed it! – the bathroom.

Reminder: The LGBT Pride Special is on all month, through June 30, 2008. You get 10% off on ALL items in the store. So enjoy!

Don’t forget that Fatale has a new DVD out too, One Night Stand.

Just in case you missed it, Fatale has a new DVD out. One Night Stand is a sexy lesbian DVD with good music, wow-inspiring real lesbians and mouth-watering hot scenes.

The San Francisco Bay Times wrote, “Sizzling and like no other porn I have seen before. We still ache after seeing this one.”

In a dizzying and delectable feast of passion and desire, One Night Stand dishes up five “one night stands,” each showing the intense drama between two first-time lovers who’ve “selected” each other to play out their erotic fantasies.

Don’t miss One Night Stand — it’s a must-see.

Good news! Fatale has a new DVD out, One Night Stand, a sexy lesbian DVD with good music, wow-inspiring real lesbians and mouth-watering orgasms.

In the works for a year now, this queer film was first produced in Paris. We worked with the producers to subtitle it where necessary (there’s not a lot of talking, as you can probably imagine) and to obtain exclusive English-language rights.

One Night Stand has been a film festival favorite - it won First Prize of the Lesbian Jury in Berlin and the Special Prize of the Jury of the Copenhagen Gay and Lesbian Film Festival.

The San Francisco Bay Times wrote, when it was shown at FRAMELINE in San Francisco: “Sizzling and like no other porn I have seen before. We still ache after seeing this one.”

In a dizzying and delectable feast of passion and desire, One Night Stand dishes up five “one night stands,” each showing the intense drama between two first-time lovers who’ve “selected” each other to play out their erotic lesbian fantasies.

Bonus extras include additional scenes, interviews with the performers and backstage peeks—all subtitled in English.

If you liked The Crash Pad, Full Load or In Search of the Wild Kingdom, One Night Stand is a must-see.

Yours in good love and sex,

From the director and star of Afterschool Special comes this special Sex Tips & Tricks column.

Sure, we do it for the music. But who doesn’t love groupies? And the truth is, you don’t need to bother with booking gigs and lugging gear to play out a good, old-fashioned groupie scene. 

Time to get into character. If you’re the star, how about some tight, pleather pants à la Joan Jett? Or maybe you’re in more of a Stevie Nicks mood? Those floaty head scarves can come in handy if your groupie needs to be subdued. 

If you’re the groupie, are you going for a classy, Pamela Des Barres style? Or are you backstage at a Motley Crue concert, looking trashy with your teased bangs?  

Fingers and tongues are nice. But a flashy, glam rock dildo is a good idea, too. This one is silver glitter: http://store.babeland.com/dildos-silicone/woody

Are you experienced, dear groupie? Or is this your first time? Perhaps you just came out of the closet and are backstage at a Melissa Etheridge concert, desperate to show her how much the music has meant to you? 

Good groupies pride themselves on giving good head. While there’s plenty of advice out there on this subject, one essential component is often overlooked: enthusiasm. Beg for it, moan, rub yourself.  Stop for a second to say, “I can’t believe this is happening!  I’m your biggest fan!”   

Don’t forget to set the scene.  Are you backstage in a dressing room?  On a tour bus?  In a hotel suite?  No matter where you are, rock star protocol requires you to trash the place at least a little bit.   

This can also be a fun scenario to play in public. Scout out a bar or a restaurant with a one-seater and you’re set. “Meet me in the bathroom after the show…” 

Don’t forget that sometimes you have to fuck the roadie before you can even get backstage. Also, sometimes groupies bring a friend. 

A little bit of sleaze is mandatory for maximum authenticity. Did your groupie flash you from the front row, throw panties, beg you to sign a naughty body part? Do you videotape your tour bus conquests and screen them for your band mates later on? 

Groupies, never touch the gear without permission! That is, unless you want to get in big trouble. (And you just might…)

Royal Pink is the coolest girl band playing the LES in New York City. And don’t forget to check out their hot lead singer, Karen, who stars in and directs Afterschool Special.

We received an interesting letter from a Fatale fan who asked, “Do you have DVDs that feature sex between gender-queers and/or butch women and queeny men?”

Gender queer is an interesting term that applies to transfolk, transmen, transwomen, queers, gender-benders, FTMs, MTFs and those who just plain don’t feel wedded to one gender. The appellation is usually self-determined and liberating.

We like gender queer movies and images because they’re a reflection of who we really are as a diverse, dynamic culture. Gender queer is descriptive without pinning you down to one “thing” or another. We can all be who we are without sacrificing a cultural or group identity.

When we first saw Barbara DeGenevieve’s video footage of the queers in Chicago when she was filming Full Load, we were blown away. Here were real dykes, real transfolk, real FTMs who weren’t afraid to bare it all. That takes guts.

Then along came Carolyn, who had worked with Barbara in Chicago and was striking out on her own with Turn Me Up Over and On, an amateur short with a sweet encounter between a femme and her boi.

Shine Louise Houston doesn’t hesitate to play with gender in the Crash Pad, the Crash Pad Series Volume 1 and especially in Wild Kingdom, one of our favorite porn flicks with a hot trans scene between Wil and Papi .

As for butches and queeny men, no queeny men, but hot sexy butches abound!

Yours in good love and sex,

P.S. Just a reminder: We ship orders within 24 hours (except bank holidays and weekends), we ship worldwide, and all Fatale Media DVDs play worldwide.

HBO produced a wonderful and enlightening series called Real Sex, which they’re currently airing this month through early May. If you haven’t yet seen these in-depth looks into sex across the U.S., we urge you to check out the full HBO Real Sex schedule.

In Real Sex Xtra: Pornucopia: Goin’ Down in the Valley 03 about same-sex sex, Shar Rednour talks and demonstrates making S.I.R. Videos and how they’re so-o-o different than “girl-girl” flicks.

And Let It All Hang Out visits Take Her Down star and director Sondra Goodwin to get the skinny on all-dyke nude oil wrestling.

If you haven’t seen HBO’s Real Sex documentaries yet, do it! Also available on HBO On Demand.

We were delighted to see Catherine Plato’s Lesbian Life entry at About.com this past month. You can read the whole piece here.

She selected the “Best Porn by and for Lesbians” and Fatale is there! Carolyn Caizzi’s steamy sweet vid Coming Home made the Top Ten, as did two S.I.R. titles and many other titles that are Fatale best sellers.

For Coming Home, which features four vignettes, Catherine wrote, “The first of this series of vignettes features a big, curvy butch-femme couple: the deliciously hot women we never get to see in mainstream porn.”

Why shouldn’t lesbian flicks show what we really look like? Real lesbians, with real lesbian lovemaking, allow us to see ourselves for who we really are. Okay, maybe the dykes onscreen are a little less inhibited than we are in everyday life, but that’s the great thing about who we are and what we do.

Check out the other titles mentioned in Catherine’s Lesbian Life column – Sugar High Glitter City, Annie Sprinkle’s Herstory of Porn, Hard Love and How to Fuck in High Heels and Shine Louise Houston’s excellent videos.

Yours in good love and sex,

It’s springtime here in the Northern Hemisphere, and we were thinking of flowers. How lovely the gardens are beginning to look, now that it’s April.

One of the most romantic women we know keeps pots of flowering plants year-round near her bathtub, an old porcelain behemoth that is deep and satisfying to just soak in alone. She hangs lace curtains in the window, which reminds us of Ireland, and keeps waterproof sex toys at hand.

Danger: Don’t bring your plug-in vibrator into the bath with you, okay? Very dangerous.

Old porcelain bathtubs held the heat of the water well. You didn’t get cold after ten minutes. But hey, we’ve got Jacuzzis and hot tubs, hot springs and even private spas now. The old ones also have straighter sides so you can sit up and play with yourself, or have your girlfriend finger your love spot until you come.

Water sometimes makes it hard to get properly lubed as quick as you would, say, on a bed. But take your time, and your natural juices will flow before you know it. You can also straddle your tub and let your girlfriend lie in the water underneath you. Very sexy indeed.

Some people prefer showers for sex, and the only thing we’re careful of while doing it in the shower is slipping and falling.  There’s a hot scene between the star oil wrestlers in Take Her Down.

Another sex-in-water sex flick we have is the classic Hungry Hearts. Pepper and Reeva have a great lovemaking scene in a sunken Japanese tub overlooking the Pacific Ocean.

So here’s the challenge: Send us your bathtub and shower sex scenes. We’ll select the best and post them on the site. If your flick is selected, we’ll call or e-mail you first, and you’ll need a model release if we use it. Just print it out and have your friends sign a copy before you shoot.

You can shoot on a camera, your cell phone or any other method that appeals to you.

And hey, if we do a new DVD, we’ll pay you for it too. See Real Lesbian Sex for more details on payment.
