Love porn? Hate porn? This episode of Clit Talk is FOR YOU. Sex worker and legendary porn star Nina Hartley graced our studio and dropped science on what she's learned in over 30 years in the porn industry. And it's not what you think it is.
“Pornography is a live action cartoon for grownups...like Transformers or superhero movies. It’s not supposed to be real.”
The sexual intellectual from Berkeley, joined by her dear friend Sparky, opened our eyes and ear to the most fascinating view on pornography that you'll probably ever have the privilege to hear. From forced monogamy to polyamory to female ejaculation to loving yourself to how to talk to your children about porn—Nina Hartley is absolutely brilliant!
“At the heart of it, the trope of most conventional pornography is Female Desire. ‘I don’t need your ring, I don’t need your baby, I don’t want your money, I want you because I’m horny.’”
“We don’t learn how to drive from watching Fast and Furious movies, and we don’t learn how to be a spy by watching James Bond, and we don’t learn how to be a sexual partner by watching pornography.”
