Martin Bashir's 'asian babes' remark at the Asian American Journalists' Association event gets some typically smart analysis from Anna Chen in The Guardian today: "I'm a babe to my nearest and dearest. And I'm Asian... But put the two together and you've got a fistful of top-shelf porn."
And while we're on the subject, Shiny Media's very own Ashley Norris notes that the recent boost in traffic to IPC's websites is largely due to their soft-porn site, Nuts: "anyone can view the website, and essentially all they are doing is ogling at naked women... So well done IPC, congratulations on a great leap in traffic for Nuts. I am sure there are plenty of other porn sites doing great business too."
All of which almost makes us feel like we're missing out. But can there be such a thing as feminist porn (apart from that photo of Germaine Greer in her swimming costume in the 70s, obviously)? Let's find out.
