Blowfish Gets It
Somewhere back in the very early days of the World Wide Web I stumbled across Blowfish.com, and as it turned out, it changed my life. Blowfish.com is where I discovered sex wasn’t stupid or gross, or rather it’s where I discovered that the sex business doesn’t have to be stupid or gross.
Blowfish is where I saw, and then purchase my first silicone dildo. Blowfish is where I first saw the work of Julian Snelling. Blowfish is where I found Bodywise lubes (the only lube other than Eros Bodyglide that Peggy and I use). And Blowfish is where I started to wonder “Why aren’t there sex films as nice as all these other very nice things they sell? Why aren’t there sex films that made me feel as happy and sexy as these dildos and buttplugs and lubes?”
Not too long after that, Peggy and began shooting the studies that became the foundation for Comstock Films, and some five or six years later, Blowfish became the first American retailer to stock Marie and Jack: A Hardcore Love Story. Now they’ve added Damon and Hunter to their selection of video offering, and we couldn’t be happier with what they have to say about the film:
“We like Comstock films because they are documentaries about real couples who really like each other and really like sex. And we get to see the couples not only having sex, but talking about sex. They also talk about love, romance, how they met, and all sorts of other very personal, intimate things. It’s regular porn, and communication porn brought together.
“Damon and Hunter: Doing it Together follows in the real life couples tradition of other Comstock films with the added bonus of being shot on film so it looks stunning. Really. If there weren’t a lot of hard core fucking in it I’d swear it wasn’t a porn film. Both boys are totally cute and sexy and clearly excited about fucking each other. They really get into talking about their relationship and their enthusiasm about being boyfriends is a little intoxicating. After you watch this movie you may just want to run right out and fall in love with your own cute gay boy.
“Consider yourself warned. The first half of the film cuts back and forth between long scenes of Damon and Hunter talking about their lives and quick Nouvelle Vague style jump cuts of them having sex. It’s sort of like a Godard film with a hard on. The second half is the hottest boy on boy sex you’ll ever see. They just seem like real people and not porn stars, because of course they are real people. But just for the record, they are real people who have great sex. These two boys are so yummy they pretty much transcend gender and sexual orientation. We’re pretty sure they will appeal to just about anyone.”
Blowfish gets it. Blowfish gets that passion is the key to great sex, whether that’s sex with your lover or the business of sex; and Blowfish is passionate about finding, appreciating, and promoting passionately made sex products. Just yesterday one of Peggy’s friends, upon seeing the Blowfish review of D&H said, “Oh wow! Blowfish! They’re picky!”
Blowfish is picky. They’re picky because they’re passionate; passionate about the idea that the sex business doesn’t have to be stupid or gross, and that it doesn’t have to be medicalized self-help education either. At Blowfish sex is fun, sex is play, sex is pleasure, sex is passion. And we’re so very happy that our films have a place at Blowfish!
