Roommating Episode 4 - Porn
Joel introduces Erin to pornography.
I never really liked porn.
Ok, sometimes I watch it.
But….I like this episode because it allows Joel and I to explore the viewing preferences of men and women when it comes to pornography or borderline pornography.
What we didn’t touch on is the bigger issue - how pornography has changed the way men and women have sex in the last 25 years. For example, I doubt in the 60’s I would have felt pressure to say to my lover “come in my face” or “all over my tits” or “i’m your dick hole, use me”.*
I’m not sure what to believe when I read studies about how porn has created hyper-sexual men. But it is interesting that, even in the 90’s, the most porn young kids had access to was watching “Real Sex” (or hearing “Real Sex” and watching static), and now they have access to hours of fisting, shrimping, golden showers, scatting, feet fucking, heavy S&M, women fucking machines, and of course, and stuff where the consent of the people involved is questionable.
* I’ve only said one of these.
Episode 2 - Roommating - “Girlfriend”
In this episode, Joel’s girlfriend is depressed. And he wants to keep it that way! But not if I have anything to do with it. (With the very talented Jillian Szafranski).
This episode features my favorite phrase “blow jobs and doggy style” - a term I use to describe myself when I was going through my “awkward slut” phase, which is to say, I would be ok if sex with a man involved only blow jobs and doggy style, even if I didn’t get to do anything I liked in return (cuddles, jokes about unicorns, an orgasm). Why? Because I was just happy a man was paying attention to me.
Don’t worry, I have self esteem now. And when I give someone a blow job now, it’s because I want to, not because I think they won’t like me if I don’t.
And you best believe we’re telling unicorn jokes naked.
Episode 1 of Roomating - A web series I wrote with Joel Church-Cooper in 2007.
We wrote this episode based on my short stint as an S&M dominatrix in Chicago. I was probably the worst dominatrix ever in the history of dominant and submissive role playing. It’s surprisingly difficult to be a comedy nerd and a confident, demanding bosser arounder.
We shot this ourselves. Obvious or not bad for a two person crew? You decide.
