Everybody keeps throwing around this word "QUEER"...

QPTV sees "Queer" is a catch-all term for non-normative sexual identity, acts, or desires. It's very important to note that anything can be queer in the right light.

Queer as a term emerged in the cultural lexicon as a slur towards homosexuals, and yes, it's most functional as a description of gay sex and sexuality. However, we at QPTV (and we are not alone) believe that the future of sex positivity is located in a movement away from seperatism, because inverting oppression is the same as reinforcing it.

Part of the prerogative of QPTV is to create subversive Queer Porn Stars in an effort to queer (yup, it's a verb too motherfuckers) celebrity culture and its tired, limiting representation of beauty and glamour.

We think that Queer as an inclusive identity is an excellent attitude. As a litmus test, if it makes you feel radical, it's probably queer.

Masterminds

Who are these sleaze-bags anyway?

Courtney Trouble and Tina Horn met during the great San Francisco porn renaissance of the late 00's. After eight years at the helm of the internet's first and longest-running queer pin-up and porn site, Trouble began making a feature-length DVD a month, providing a forum for countless queers from literally all over the world. Emerging from a background in pro-BDSM and comprehensive sexual health education, Horn saw the freedoms of Bay Area porn as both a profitable outlet for her rampant attention-whore tendencies and an opportunity to promote real social good. Their common background of sex work and DIY punk community inspired them to band together take pornography into their own hands.

And what do they believe?

As diy punks, we value community, and believe that the relationships cultivated by art and work and shared vision contribute to rich creative experience and higher quality production

As poltically-minded artists, we believe in using sexually explicit media as a platform for documenting and archiving the sexual expression of the disenfranchised (ie those who don't see their bodies, gender, desires, lifestyle, or erotic pastimes represented in culture or media)

As feminists, we believe that our work is essentially revolutionary because the female queer gaze is a radical tool to exploit the pornographic medium

As queers, we believe in reinforcing an open definition of Queer as an all-inclusive, empowering identity for EVERY HUMAN.

What can I expect from QPTV?

you may be wondering...

WHAT CAN I EXPECT

Dirty exhibitionists doing things you can't do on DVD

A palpable sense of sex positive artists working together, including the performers, producers and crew. This is sex positive gonzo!

The fast hot high energy of people in possession of their sexualities doing what they love
