You could win a copy of Off the Set: Porn Stars and Their Partners

We’re down to the wire for  buying your personalized days in the 2011 calendar. Thanks to the generosity of Paulie and Pauline, who photographed Nikol Hasler for the 2010 NYC Sex Blogger Calendar, I now have two copies of the Off the Set: Porn Stars and Their Partners to give away, one today and one tomorrow.  All you have to do to win a copy is buy a day and a calendar for $40, using the BUY NOW button over to the right,  and we’ll randomly select two winners.

“Off the Set: Porn Stars and Their Partners is book of photos and essays that explore the intimate, romantic and erotic lives of ten couples in the adult film industry. Anchored in the visual traditions of Mary Ellen Mark and Danny Lyon, the documentary photos in Off the Set explore their subjects from a genuinely intimate perspective. In both their portrait work and their erotic photography, Paulie & Pauline seek out uniquely candid moments in the human experience with a curiosity that is heavily influenced by their backgrounds in journalism and sociology. Mostly, though, their photos reflect their voyeuristic fascination with people and their stories. Photos from Off the Set have been published in print and online, appeared in several group exhibitions, and are in the permanent collections of the Museum of Sex in New York City and the Kinsey Institute for Human Sexuality.”

The couples photographed for Off the Set include:

• Jesse Jane & Rich Taylor
• Tera Patrick & Evan Seinfeld
• Seymore Butts & Mari Possa
• Kylie Ireland & Eli Cross
• Kurt Lockwood & Samantha Ryan
• Nicki Hunter & Josh
• Madison Young & James Mogul
• Sinn Sage & Jason
• Buck Angel & Elayne
• Lorelei Lee & Kevin

Remember, your money supports Woodhull Freedom Foundation in affirming sexual freedom as a fundamental human right.

Dangerous Lilly is not to be left out.  Is she ever?  She’s upped the ante for those who buy days.  One day gets you a personalized, signed photo and if you buy more than one day, you get access to an audio clip of Lilly masturbating.  Damn, I need that for my new site, My Lips, Your Ears.  Use the code LILLY if you want to take advantage of this offer.

Brandon B of the Inqueery is throwing in a Pleasure Chest gift bag as part of our Tess & Diva Sexy NYC Nightlife Tour.  We’ll be making a stop at the NYC’s Pleasure Chest so the winner can pick up their gift.

If you buy 5 days for a $100, Gray has a secret, extra special prize. It has something to do with talismans, which has me damn curious.  He won’t even tell us what he has in store but knowing Gray, I know it will be magical.

And since we’re in the final stretch, with only a few days left to make your own personal statement on a calendar featuring the likes of some very sexy, sex positive people – Nina Hartley, Sexie Sadie, Lilith Grey, Jiz Lee, Brandon B, Matthew Lawrence, Mollena Williams, et al – we’re offering admission to the pre-party where models and sponsors meet and mingle before the beautiful insanity of 300 plus revelers arrive to those of you who purchase 5 days for $100.  And while chaos and mayhem are indeed fun, at the pre-party you’ll get to spend some quality time, up close and personal, with some amazing people who will graciously sign your calendars and perhaps let you feed them grapes. Let the decadence, for a good cause – those who fight for your rights to sexual freedom – begin!

Wednesday is for Vixen’s – Radical Vixen

What I love about Radical Vixen is her passion; how she effortlessly merges the political and the perverse, (often the most perverse IS the political) in her blog in the same way she does in her life.  Not bogged down by labels, Radical Vixen is always authentic and true to her heart and beliefs.  You can see some of those aspects of her personality in the choice of photos she sent.  I say choice, but it was hard for me to choose, so I pretty much used most of them.  Better for us all!

Radical Vixen is a sex worker, hippie, activist and blogger. She’s been a phone sex operator for over eight years and occasionally stars in fetish spanking videos and photos. Vixen is a contributor to $pread Magazine. When not traveling, her and her husband live in the southwest surfing the web off solar power. She blogs about peace, porn and politics at RadicalVixen.com

Radical Vixen is offering a chance to win a Natural Contours BonBon Vibe when you buy a day on the 2011 calendar with the code VIXEN.  Remember you can combine codes, getting signed photos of Sexie Sadie and Dangerous Lilly, a mixtape from Matthew Lawrence, 15% off your order at MauiKink.com and a chance to win the Sexy NYC Nightlife Tour with me and Diva that even includes a goodie bag from Pleasure Chest thanks to calendar model, Brandon B.

And because we’re big fans of boobs and know you are too, we’d be remiss not to include this shot of the lovely Radical Vixen.

Tuesday’s Model is Matthew Lawrence!

A Model A Day – Jiz Lee

Starting off our A Model A Day series, we’re happy to start off with the one and only Jiz Lee.  Jiz loves this shot because it pays homage to San Francisco, with one tower of the Golden Gate Bridge smack in between Jiz’s cartwheeling thighs, and it shows off their silly side.  Silly or not, Jiz is a beautiful creature, inside and out.  You can easily see their outside beauty but read more about Jiz below the photo and get a hint of why they are such a phenomenal and inspiring person.

Jiz Lee is a GenderQueer Porn Star whose interest in blogging has defined their career and helped ignite a renaissance in queer porn. Moving to San Francisco from Hawai`i, Jiz began working with director Shine Louise Houston in 2005 and not long after, created JizLee.com as a means to archive and expand upon experiences as a queer performing in pornography. This online presence lead to recognition in both geek and porn circles, such as having appeared in Top Ten lists from Fleshbot.com and Violet Blue’s Sexy Geeks, nominated AVN Awards Best New Web Star, and honored as Feminist Porn Awards’ Boundary Breaker. Throughout the years,Jiz navigated many genres and production styles with an organic “self-agent” work process and recorded the journey with posts that range in topic from gender and sexuality to casting and sex tips. Readers from co-stars to fellow bloggers and industry leaders to supportive fans have connected to Jiz through the site and have reinforced the importance of diverse sex-positive representation in sexual media. In an experiment to connect sex commerce to their community involvement, Jiz launched “Karma Pervs”, a monthly philanthropic porn fundraiser which raises money for community-based non-profit organizations who advocate for the rights of sex workers and queers. Ever sexually curious and optimistic, Jiz has found validation, friendship, love, and inspiration through pornography.

As the dog days of summer descend humidly upon NYC, sticky thighs and rivulets of sweat snaking down spines become everyday occurrences, we’re about to turn up the temperature a few degrees.

We’re happy to announce you can now buy and personalize your days on the 2011 Sex Blogger Calendar, with a message up to 80 characters, as well as pre-order your calendars. Purchasing days and calendars helps Woodhull Freedom Foundation in their mission to affirm sexual freedom as a fundamental human right. And we’ve made it easy for you to do, just glance to the right side bar and pick the option your heart desires.

Need some ideas for what to say on your day? Here’s a couple.

- For $25, your company can include a URL and discount code which will be visible for an entire month. Want more visibility? $100 buys you five days, which you can strategically place throughout the year, highlighting your company’s anniversary and other significant days.

- For individuals, that same $25 allows you to feature a meaningful quote, celebrate your blogiversary, send a message to your favorite model or express your gratitude to Woodhull for their dedication to fighting for such an important cause.

When we receive your payment, we’ll email you to get your days and messages.

Calendars will sell for $20 after the pre-sale period is closed, so we’re giving our early supporters a special deal on the combination of pre-ordering and buying a day, for $40 you can get a calendar and one day to personalize and save $5.

And don’t forget that when the heat of summer is finally dwindling and NYC is crisp and cool and fall, in all it’s brilliant, blazing color, is upon us, we’re going to make it sizzling again; at least on October 1st when we reveal the calendar at our launch party, once again, at the fabulous Fontana’s! So buy your days, pre-order your calendars, and book your flights and hotels. We’re going to have an amazing weekend filled with fantastic people and exciting events and we want you to be part of it all!

Remember your purchases of days and calendars goes to support Woodhull.  Here’s some of the specific ways Woodhull strives to promote & protect sexual freedom:

• Woodhull educates the public on the importance and value of sexual freedom and counter the arguments of groups seeking to restrict sexual rights;
• Woodhull advocates for decriminalization and social acceptance of consensual sexual expression;
• Woodhull seeks to change antiquated, repressive and discriminatory sex laws and enforcement practices;
• Woodhull advocates for freedom of speech and artistic expression on sexual themes;
• Woodhull promotes the empowerment of people to take control of their bodies and their sexuality;
• Woodhull supports legal action to overturn court decisions adverse to sexual freedom and privacy rights, and we work to affirm and expand decisions, like Lawrence v. Texas, that support sexual freedom and privacy;
• Woodhull opposes abstinence-only sex “education” and endorse an age-appropriate, comprehensive approach to sex education; and
• Woodhull seeks to protect and foster scientific research on sexuality.

And We Have Lift Off

Way back in February, when we announced that the 2011 calendar was going national and that the funds we raised this year would go to benefit Woodhull Freedom Foundation, June seemed lightyears away.  Now, it arrives in about forty-five minutes and since June 1st was the date we promised to announce who was going to be in the calendar, it’s time to do just that.

But first, let me thank all of you, including those who we didn’t have space for, who worked hard to send us images and who wanted to be a part of this very unique and special project.  If only there were enough months and space to fit everyone.  The choices were hard to make, really hard, but we tried to make the best decisions we could and to fit in as many representations of different sexualities and communities as we could.  We found models, or more accurately they found us, who embody the BDSM and leather communities, who show us that sex education is sexy as hell, who proudly represent and create their own porn.  We have an erotic model alongside a boot black.  A proponent of open marriage.  A gay man or two.  A straight man.  Writers. Bloggers.  Sex workers. All these people are so very different but they all have one overwhelming belief that bonds them and makes them ideal for this calendar; they all believe firmly in what  Woodhull Freedom Foundation stands for – that sexual freedom is a fundamental human right. And they’re putting their bodies and their faces out there to say it loud and proud.

So without further ado, here’s what you’ve been waiting for, the 2011 NYC Sex Blogger Calendar models are:
