Female Director Victorious With First Ever UK Release of a Film That Contains Female Ejaculation
By Prne, Gaea News NetworkMonday, October 5, 2009
TUNBRIDGE WELLS, England - Britain’s first female porn director, Anna Span has won a historic victory with the passing of her DVD, ‘Women Love Porn’ which includes a woman clearly ejaculating.
On initial submission to the British Board of Film Classification, the board asked for compulsory edits to remove the female ejaculation section, as they believed the woman to be urinating and argued therefore it fell foul of the Obscene Publications Act. Even though most countries worldwide which allow pornography do not single out female as opposed to male ejaculation for censoring, the BBFC historically do not believe in the phenomenon. They have refused to pass previous films such as Ben Dover’s Squirt Queens in May 2001, saying that they had not received a convincing enough argument to support the existence of FE.
Determined to put the record straight, Anna Span presented the BBFC with irrefutable scientific evidence in support of model DJ’s ability to ’squirt,’ as it is known in the adult industry. Anna says; ‘I am really proud to have the film passed and to have made a difference to women who experience this in their own lives throughout the UK. It was never fair that the BBFC dismissed their orgasms as urinary incontinence.’
Initially the BBFC stood their ground and refused to pass the film but when Anna pushed for a hearing with the Video Appeals Committee, they later passed the film after taking legal advice. They say that their ‘position remains fundamentally unchanged for future releases’ and they still do not accept the existence of FE. However, it is difficult to know how they will prevent future claims for DVDs which contain FE, now that this precedent has been set.
‘Women Love Porn’ is the result of a competition set by Anna Span to encourage new female directors into directing pornography. Five women won the opportunity to write and film a scene for the DVD which includes the contentious FE scene ‘Top Milf’ by director Paula Porn. The winner of the competition Katie Coxxx then went on to film a full DVD of her own titled Apocalypse Angels, also for Easy on the Eye Productions.
For further information and for any press enquiries for interview with Anna Span or Deborah Sundahl - the expert on female ejaculation who helped Anna get the film passed - please contact Anna below. Anna is available to speak to press now and Deborah will be in the UK to give press interviews from 27th to the 29th October 2009.
Women Love Porn will be released at Venus International Adult Trade Fair in Berlin on the 15th October 2009.
