University of Toronto Hosts a Progressive Meeting of the Minds
San Francisco (February 20th, 2014): Building on a year of unprecedented media attention for the feminist porn movement, the 2014 Feminist Porn Conference, will take place on April 5 and 6, 2014 at the University of Toronto. Good Vibrations, the trusted San Francisco Bay Area based company that takes pride in providing accurate sexual health information and quality sex toys, will be sponsoring the event, which brings 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.
True to their dedication of being a trusted source of quality products and diverse offerings, Good Vibrations created the biggest and best selection of feminist porn in the universe and offers discreet viewing on multiple platforms with best in class technology on their digital content portal- www.goodvibrationsvod.com. Executive Vice President and Executive Producer of the site, Jackie Strano says, "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. 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 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. It brings together academics, students, cultural critics, sex workers, activists, fans, and porn performers and producers to explore the intersections between feminism and pornography as well as feminist porn as a genre, industry, and movement.
The Feminist Porn Conference happens close to the The Feminist Porn Awards, one of the largest gatherings of feminist pornographers in the world. The awards show seeks to raise awareness, pose critical questions, and incite dialogue about the shifting landscape of pornography.
