Yanks and Grooby Announce Historic Partnership Between Brands
LOS ANGELES, CA – Leading trans erotica powerhouse Grooby has teamed up with Yanks, the long-established brand in the amateur solo and lesbian genre, announcing the management of Yanks.com. The project is being led by Grooby’s new company, Blue.xxx. “Beyond the infrastructure support Grooby brings us, Steven and his team share our values,” adds Yanks owner and founder Billie. “It was non-negotiable to have a partner who would not ask us to adjust our moral compass with our producers, performers, affiliates, and customers to chase a higher margin. Grooby and Yanks are in lockstep on the way we approach the [...]
Our First Day of Interviews
In porn, the Girl Next Door is queen. She’s the girl you fantasize about. Maybe she runs in the same circles as you, or she might not know you exist, but you drink more water at the gym just to run into her. Your stomach drops when her shirt or skirt rides up even an inch. If she loves cinnamon gum, you always have some — just in case. She is so close and yet painfully, sweetly impossible.

Inside the Emerging World of VR Porn for Women (And Anyone Who’s Not a Dude)
With PlayStation VR googles affixed to my head, I lounged on the couch, trying to imagine I was the woman getting ravished by a tattooed bearded man. In the video the woman’s tan legs splayed on the tile as the man hovered over her, kissing what I presumed were her nipples, although I couldn’t be sure because all I saw was the top of his head. It was my first time watching so-called female point-of-view (FPOV) virtual reality porn, and I tried to suspend my disbelief. But her legs were so tan and tatted and mine nearly bare and [...]
4 Ways My MBA Saved My Porn Company
I dropped out of high school and don’t have an undergrad degree. However, today I have an MBA from The University of Washington and I used what I learned during the program to bring my online porn business back from the dead. Go Dawgs!!! I imagine the paragraph above just gave the Dean of Foster’s Business School a minor heart attack as well as a number of my connections here on LinkedIn who aren’t really sure what Stripe Media does. Thank God there is no better defibrillator for a biz school dean than reclaimed revenue and profits and I [...]
To shave or not to shave down there? I won’t let porn trends decide
The resurgence of female pubic hair in porn has nothing to do with feminism, but with fashion and profit I remember biking to the Korean nail salon every three weeks in high school so that a woman could sear off my film of mustache and thick eyebrows, chastising me if I waited too long. “So bad, so bad.” About as sexually active as a cloistered nun, I didn’t think to wax my legs or bikini area, letting the hair there grow wild and free, but I had been bullied before about my facial hair in gym class by [...]
