Quotes

  • If you think pubic hair on a woman is unnatural or weird, you aren't mature enough to be touching vaginas.
  • Because I'm pale and have small boobs people ask me about my thoughts on Occupy Wall Street.
  • I am a deeply conflicted feminist person who gets regularly called a feminist pornographer when I see nothing inherently feminist about the pornography I produce. Feminism is not my focus.
  • There are many established [feminist] academics out there today who truly believe that a woman having a public sexuality keeps us down - that it's this patriarchal plot. But porn isn't inherently more oppressive than anything else under capitalism.
  • And my parents, they had different reactions, but the core of it for both of them was, "You're our child, we love you, typically when you make a decision you have thought about it somewhat, and you consistently deal with the ramifications of whatever you choose to do. Are you on drugs? Are you being forced to do it? No? Then cool."
