Tristan Taormino's Expert Guide To Advanced Anal Sex review summaries:
fu_q's
"Tristan Taormino's Expert Guide to Advanced Anal Sex" is a good production from Vivid and Tristan Taormino that, as its title implies, provides a good deal of information about the practice of anal stimulation. The disc kicks off with about 20 minutes of informational material, and a variety of topics are covered. There's info on the anatomy / science of anal play, preparing for it, pointers on what to do, info regarding the male prostate and the female G-spot, material on various positions, and coverage of the topic as it pertains to both men and women (as givers and receivers, alike). After this, there's a transition to four demonstrations involving adult stars, each with its own unique characteristics and flavor. Sex-wise, the demos are typically fairly hot, though a couple of them don't end in a male climax, so it's a bit of a let-down in that regard. All in all, this one is informative, and the production achieves its educational goals well. [read the full review]

Nina Hartley's Guide To Great Sex During Pregnancy review summaries:
YogaDame's
I've never been pregnant and probably never will be. Nonetheless, I believe that Nina Hartley's Guide to Great Sex During Pregnancy is the pinnacle of this series to date. The logistical obstacles to assembling this production surely must've been daunting. And yet, the result looks completely easy and natural. It's informative and erotic and classy and...dare I say...moving. If you have any interest in this topic whatsoever, this is the DVD you need. It will be a long time, if ever, before anyone surpasses what's been achieved here. [read the full review]

If all educational productions were like this one, I'd be thrilled to watch nothing but instructional DVDs. Nina Hartley's Guide to Stripping for Your Partner is not heavy on technique, yet there's much to inspire would-be dancers (both guys and gals). And it all leads to such beautifully scorching sex!

As usual with Nina Hartley's instructional releases, if you're at all interested in learning about the subject it's well worth picking up. Nina does a great job discussing the topic as well as demonstrating it, and has a very nice cast to help her out. The technical aspects are a bit hit or miss, but there's plenty of effort put into the extras. This is a very nicely done release. [read the full review]

DescriptionThis is an instructional dvd with two scenes of massage leading to sex. General Impression Jeez, I always want to like these Nina Hartley dvd's. But it doesn't work out. I took a lot of notes on this, gave it a couple of weeks, and watched it again. I even got a second opinion from someone else. The results were the same. It has its good points, but I still can't think who I'd recommend it to. Notes As a serious massage primer, I'd like to see more emphasis on some basics. For example, no mention is made of warming the oil in your hands rather than ever pouring it directly onto the body (although we see the oil always poured into the hands). We see legs and arms stroked in a direction away from the heart, without any commentary. We see Alec break contact with Marie's body while he reaches for more oil. [read the full review]

Nina Hartley's Guide to Erotic Massage Cast: Nina Hartley, Randy Spears, Marie Luv, and Alec Knight in sex roles, and Adrianna Nicole in a speaking role. Director: Ernest Greene Videographer: Ralph Parfait Production dates: 11/28/0511/30/05 (taping), 5/8/06 (DVD) Length: 108 min. Extras: A 30-min. behind-the-scenes featurette, a 15-min. interview with Nina Hartley, a 25-min. bonus scene from Carmen's Dirty Secrets, 11 min. of trailers (O: The Power of Submission, Tailgunners, Carmen & Austyn, Jane Blond DD7), and a 7-min. slide show. Audiovisual quality: The camerawork is professional and fluid, skillfully incorporating mirrors for a subtle multi-angle effect. The lighting in the first scene has a tungsteny golden hue. That's not necessarily a bad thingit just gives a cozy-homey feel. The location is essentially noiseless; dialog is easily heard and understood. A 15-minute piece of electronica backs Marie's striptease and massage. [read the full review]

Nina Hartley's Guide To G-Spot Sex Studio: Adam & Eve Category: Instructional Starring: Nina Hartley, Voodoo, Nicole Sheridan, Carmen Luvana, Melissa Lauren Quickest of the quick review. Who doesn't love Carmen Luvana?, And who doesn't love the G-spot?. Well Mrs. Nina hartley takes advantage of these two, to help her out in her instructional series. She will try to open some minds, ( and some legs), to discover the so many times mentioned spot, not the A or B neither C or D, E or F, but G, the G- spot, Melissa Lauren will take a day in school, with Nina, with strap on and all, (yes, you heard right 3SB), and then Nicole sheridan and guy will demonstrate how it is for a couple, oh! well, only vaginal style here. Carmen and the host Nina give us a farewell and I'm happy to know that someone is here to help us, in this so call life.... DVD Quality Audio and Video quality are better than most of A&E, BTS, gallery, web info and so on. [read the full review]

The Little Details Running Time: 75 min. (cover states 79 min.) Production Date: 10 / 5 / 2005 Director: Ernest Greene Cast: Nina Hartley, Melissa Lauren, Nicole Sheridan, Voodoo, and Carmen Luvana in a non-sex role The Short Story Initial Expectations: Ninas educational releases have been kind of hit or miss. Im not too sure what to expect here. Initial Reaction: Its okay, but more than a little forced at times. Who Should Watch It : Anybody having a lot of trouble finding the G-spot. Who Should Avoid It: Anybody wanting a very clinical look at finding the G-spot rather than a pornish educational release The Technical Stuff Audio /Video Quality: The technical aspects are the best Ive seen out of Ninas recent educational releases. The audio is nicely balanced, and there were only a couple minor background noises. The video is also pretty good. Its nicely lit and has very little grain to it. Theres also barely any camera motion. This is a pretty good looking and sounding release. [read the full review]

The audio is okay through Ninas portions of the movie, but theres a hiss in the background the entire time. Also, during Violets scenes theres a lot of background noises, including the stars being given direction and responding to it verbally. [read the full review]

Nina Hartley's Guide To Threesomes #2 - Two Guys and A Girl Produced 01/05 Adam & Eve Pictures (www.adameve.com) 74 minutes Directed by Ernest Greene Starring: Nina Hartley, Violet Blue, Chris Cannon, Randy Spears, Julian, Evan Stone and Nicole Sheridan (Non Sex role). Instructional Evan Stone uses a condom with Violet They say "those who can't do, teach", but in Nina's case she does both very well. Her "Guide To" films have sold over half a million copies, so she's obviously doing something right. The film opens with Nina answering some questions, read by Nicole, from people who have written to her. There are then two sex scenes, followed by some brief closing thoughts. Nicole Sheridan is only here to help Nina and has no sex in the film. Personally it's not very likely I'm ever going to be involved in this type of threeway, if any threeway at all. But I'm a Nina Hartley fan and wanted to see her fuck. But to be honest it wasn't much of a turn on watching Nina having sex in a clinical type setting even though she does get fucked in the ass,.

Nina Hartley is one of the most genuine people you may ever come across. She tells it like it is, and she doesnt go out of her way to make her fans feel as if they are beneath her. And, at one point, she was turning out some very hot porn. Now, her taste have turned into the instructional phase of porn. Her dvds are not barn-burners, and raincoaters will want to pass these up because the sex in these releases are more to a lighter taste, but there is chemistry between the performers, and seeing Ninas ass bounce back and forth every time she takes a step may be worth the price of purchase to many of her fans. SCENE ONE has Nina with Nicole Sheridan, offering instructional help on the wide-ranging topic of threesomes, and Nina reading mail from fans on there thoughts and feelings of the act with two women, which men just love, and how this fantasy is most likely to happen.

So I was really excited to see that she had made one about double penetration, something which is frequently seen in porn movies these days without revealing exactly how people actually get to that point. There are three scenes here, starting with Nina discussing many aspects of double penetration with her friend Kylie. The two of them are seen in sexy latex outfits going over lots of potential questions a viewer might have, being sure to cover Nina's well-known and consistent emphasis on honesty, open communication, and lack of embarrassment about sexual matters. They discuss sexual pleasure, health, and satisfaction in general, all things that are extra important in regards to a relatively extreme act such as double penetration. Nina emphasizes that women need to know themselves, what they like, and how their own pleasure and bodies work. [read the full review]

Nina Hartley's Guide To Spanking review summaries:
Violet Blue (SGPC)'s
Nina Hartley's Guide to Spanking 2004, 80 min., Adam & Eve D. Ernest Greene Starring: Nina Hartley Kylie Ireland Audrey Hollander Otto Bauer Nina Hartley's guides to sex are a staple in American sex ed. They are the most often recommended; the easiest for consumers to get, and Nina has a widely recognized, trusted name. She is really the "America's Sweetheart" of explicit sex ed videos, in part due to her training as an RN, her comfort with talking about sex, understanding about sex-positivity (and negativity), her lack of gender bias and her strong female perspective on pleasure. Plus, she has a great ass and lots of sexy friends. One of the things I love about her ed videos is that they are always full of authentic female orgasms. *Real* ones, and viewers can tell. This film, a spanking film for beginners, is no exception. First, the disk frustrations. It wouldn't play in one of my DVD players (the good one), but luckily I'm the kind of porn fiend that has 5 options available in her own house. It worked in the crappy Sony. [read the full review]

The Little Details Running Time: 80 min. Production Date: 6 / 23 / 2004 Director: Ernest Greene Cast: Kylie Ireland, Otto Bauer, Audrey Hollander, and of course, Nina Hartley The Short Story Initial Expectations: Im not sure why, but I have a bit of hope here. Initial Reaction: Its one of the best educational type DVDs Ive seen so far. Who Should Watch It : Anybody at all interested in erotic spanking Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who thinks spanking should be dark, painful, and without pleasure The Technical Stuff Audio /Video Quality: The technical aspects are pretty good. The audio is pretty clear, but the balance is sometimes off a little, theres a slight hiss in the background, and theres sometimes a bit of a hollow sound to the audio. The video is pretty good. Its nicely lit, but there is a little grain and a slightly soft feel. Music: None Menus: The menus are okay. The main menu looks nice and has a little animation to help it out. [read the full review]

Who Should Watch It : Anybody curious about becoming multi-orgasmic Who Should Avoid It: Anybody wanting a lot of tips on how to become multi-orgasmic rather than just getting some general information The Technical Stuff Audio /Video Quality: The technical aspects are okay. The audio is normally pretty clear and well balanced, but there are a few background noises and hollow spots. The video is much the same way. Its nicely lit but it does have some slight grain. It captures the action okay, but often feels limited and fairly cheap. Music: Theres a little soft music that helps the movie out nicely. [read the full review]

J.R.'s
Another instructional DVD from our favorite (and very sexy) instructor, this feature is short on overt heat, but does offer some good tips on how to help yourself and your partner achieve multiple orgasms. Scene One: Instructional W/Nina Hartley, Layla Jade This is a chart-and study scene that has no sex. We see Nina give us the clinical definitions and show us a chart of the human body, and what makes men and women achieve multiple orgasms. Layla sits by and obseverves Nina give her instructions. Scene Two: Nina Hartley, Aria Nina use various toys and a fucking machine to bring Aria to several orgasms. After Aria fucks herself with her toys (with Ninas help), she gets on her knees and takes a dildo from a fucking machine nice and slow in her asshole, using a huge white vibrator on her clit to help get her off. She does not squirt in this scene at all. Pros: Both ladies give a nice, sensual scene to the viewer, and there is no all out girl-girl action in this scene. For couples. Cons: Aria did not squirt. Bummer. [read the full review]

The audio is clear and well balanced for the most part, but there is a bit that gets a little hollow.

J.R.'s
This is a fine instructional DVD, by the ver gorgeous and divine Ms. H. For anyone who is looking for all out, hardcore, balls to the wall fucking and sucking, this not the DVD for you. Instead, it will tell you some things you may or may not have known about masturbation. Scene One: Nina Hartley, Layla Jade This scene has Nina using several toys and a fucking machine to get Layla off. Throughout the scene, she gives tips and instructions on what to do to bring yourself (as a woman) to the heights of self-pleasure. Pros: Both ladies are two of my favorites, and they look very sexy in this scene. Cons: More of a instructional feel goes with this scene. Once again, do not expect this to be a hard rubbing, masturbating, girls-only scene. Final Verdict: Just watch this scene to see two fine and sexy ladies in the industry get down just a little. Scene Two: Lezley Zen, Mario Rossi This is actually a better scene than I thought it would be. Lez walks Mario over to a nice bed, and after he strips out of his clothes gives him a nice BJ.

Nina Hartley's Guide To Younger Men Older Women Sex review summaries:
The Pocketcomb Pimp's
Nina Hartley's Guide To Younger Men, Younger Women Running Time: 81 min. Production Date: April 2004 The Pocketcomb Premise Nina Hartley always proves to be a hot topic on ADT. Ive been a fan of Ninas for at least 15 years. I believe her to be one of the most beautiful women to ever grace the screen and I always thought she was a boob job away from greatness. Unfortunately, by the time she go one her career had slowed down considerably. I also find her age hard to swallow. Even though her frame is flawless, her face appears to be aged beyond what some say is a 60s birth date. Either way, a new generation has been cheated by not being able to see some of Ninas Hall of Fame works that are most likely not available on DVD. This title started with a long commentary. This was where Nina and Sophie convince potential older women that letting a teenager fuck you in the ass is the key to your sexual freedom. Although I liked the talk, and touch, I was a bit upset that Sophie did not play a sexual roll in this title. [read the full review]

Production Date: 11 / 20 / 1995 Director: Nina Hartley Cast: Nina Hartley, Anna Malle, Hank Armstrong, and John Decker Initial Expectations: Ive had mixed results from this series, so Im keeping an open mind. Initial Reaction: Its okay for a start, but doesnt go into too much detail. Who Should Watch It : Anybody looking for a few basic tips for getting started with anal play Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who wants an in depth look at anal play Audio /Video Quality: As usual with this series, the technical aspects are lacking a bit. The audio is often clear, but the balance isnt always even. The video looks like it hasnt been touched since the original video transfer. Theres quite a bit of grain and the video is often a bit fuzzy. Music: The music is the standard porn style. It starts off very soft and unobtrusive, but moves on to become loud and annoying while adding a little mood to the sex. Menus: The menus are pretty basic. [read the full review]

Endorphin's
Pros: Educational porn, Anna Malle's legs Cons: poor sound takes away from the educational factor, only two chicks, bad choice of shots Juvenile remark: She said "rectum"! I admire educational porn and try to stay open to the fact that it it will not meet the intensity and variety of other porn. But, I found myself rather dissappointed with this one. The DVD starts out being educational but that does not consume enough time to make it worth while. So, mini-orgy footage is shown to make it more worth your while. Educational part: The educational part is pieced together. There is a scene where Nina Hartley fingers Anna Malle's ass and of course let us know what we need to know about penetrating asses--"The anus never lies". The audio is not well balanced. If you set the volume so that you can hear what is being said you will wake the neighbors once Anna starts to moan. Although, it was nice seeing Anna wiggle around on fingers. Another scene is just with Nina and some diagrams outside. [read the full review]

Lunacy's
I liked this DVD! I found it to be honest, original, straight forward and sexy all at the same time. Nina starts out with a very honest instructional "lecture" of sorts while beautiful Tina Tyler lounges in the background. Nina speaks as though you were right there with her, I thought this really added a nice dimension to an instructional type video. Nina is very well spoken and seems very well educated. She touches upon cultural influences, emotional aspects of a womyn's sexuality. I was very pleased to find this was not just a "put your fingers here and rub" DVD. Some of the things she pointed out the importance of were: -Kiss and touch -A womyn feeling safe, physically and emotionally -That womyn are very tactile -Slowing down, being in the moment -Getting the fires burning Nina Hartley shares some very insightful, real issues that womyn face in this first segment. I did think this lecture portion ran a little long, and was slightly repetitive in some places, but wasn't anything major. ------ In the second scene, we get a little show and tell with Nina and Tina.

Starring: Nina Hartley, Tina Tyler, Jewel Valmont, Ian Daniels, Chris Cannon Pros: educational porn, candles, massage, feather Cons: would have liked to have seen more of Jewel, no features Educational porn is good! This DVD teeters on being educational and at the same time being a porn. The end result is that it ends up being quite opposite from any porn I have seen. Nina talks about and does this thing called 'foreplay'. And later on, this one scene does not end right after the guy cums. You would never believe it. Nina actually asks for another orgasm after the guy cums (I thought that was called nap-time). What was with all those candles and stuff anyways? Do you buy those things in a sex toy shop or something like that? Where was the facial? So what did I learn from this educational porn. Well, women are different than men, they "blah blah blah" (women stuff). Seriously though, this DVD is more about informing men about how women approach and feel about sex in general.

Nina Hartley's Advanced Guide to Oral Sex review summaries:
Trunks'
Running Time: approx. 81 minutes Director: Nina Hartley Cast: Nina Hartley, Malitia, Mandi Frost, Tony Tedeschi, and 2 other gentlemen Audio/Video Quality: There was some grain in the picture. And the audio was a little soft at times. But overall it wasnt that bad. Extras: Bio of Nina Hartley. The lettering was too small and there was no voice reading it as there often is on Wicked Pictures disks. Themes: Oral, straight, orgy, touching/masturbation, and rimming (male>female). Review: I got no sexual experience in the world and found this disk to be educational. I also thought it was enjoyable to see the women naked and used as instructional aids. It sure beat looking at drawings or even pictures in some book. I think this disk would be great for a couple who maybe is a little uncomfortable with their sexuality and/or maybe wonders if they know all there is to know about pleasing their partner. There is an orgy at the end. It doesnt have any relation to what went on before in the flik though. [read the full review]

Running Time: 87 min. Director: Nina Hartley Cast: Nina Hartley, Militia, Mandi Frost, Toni Tedeschi, Steve Drake, and Mike Majors Extras: Biography of Nina Hartley Video Quality: Average. Audio Quality: Not too good. There are several times when Nina talks to one of her 'class' and you cannot here the other person clearly. There are even times when you cannot clearly hear Nina when she's lecturing. Review: What I wouldn't give to have had just one college professor that looked like Nina Hartley! Not only does she look better than all of my college professors, she lectures better than many of them also. Nina's Advanced Guide to Oral Sex is broke down into three sections: anatomy, practice, and fantasy scene. The anatomy is pretty basic, but provides a good understanding of the technical terms she uses. She also keeps it very short (around five to ten minutes). The best thing about the entire anatomy lesson was the vaginal puppet she had. It was all I could do to stay in my chair . [read the full review]

Most "How to..." sex videos are nothing more than a flimsy excuse to show some hardcore sex scenes with a little bit of commentary so as to avoid the "porn" categorization. This is not to say that such videos can't be informative, but obvious discussions on the art of lovemaking are usually peppered with obvious suggestions like, "Take your time. Be sensitive to your partner's needs. Enjoy the experience..." (Well, duh!). So, after noting the title of this feature, I braced myself for a methodically boring instructional video of sorts, with some graphic but sterilized scenes of oral sex. In other words, I thought I would be bored to death. However, the legendary Nina Hartley makes this video enjoyable, and yes, educational as well. [read the full review]

Running Time: 87 min. Production Date: 4 / 10 / 1998 Director: Nina Hartley Cast: Nina Hartley, Angelica Sin, Inari Vachs, Dee, Ian Daniels, Mark Anthony, and the ironically named Rich Handsome Initial Expectations: Ive had mixed results from Ninas educational series, so Im not quite sure what to expect. Initial Reaction: Its well done and fun to watch. Who Should Watch It : Anybody curious about sex toys but isnt sure where to start or who has chipped their teeth with a vibrator Who Should Avoid It: People looking for male anal sex toy information Audio /Video Quality: As usual with the earlier installments of Nina Hartleys educational features, the technical aspects leave quite a bit to be desired. The audio is a little muffled and often has a few balance problems. The video is has much more grain than normal, and is fairly comparable to a movie thats shot on film. Music: The music has the cheesy style that people have made fun of since the start of porn. [read the full review]

Pre-Viewing Expectations I'm not expecting a traditional skin flick with this feature. It should be more of a tutorial layout, with some demonstrations of the use of toys. The Main Event The movie opens with a monologue by Tina Hartley describing several class of toys, such as vibrating, penetrative toys, tactile toys, sensory depravation toys, and constrictive toys. She talks about safety, such as using flaired base anal toys so they aren't sucked in, and not placing the penis into something that doesn't open or easily streach, such as bottles. After the discussion of toys, the women from the three demonstration couples gets to pick out a few toys for them to try. While the women pick out toys, the guys are trying to race vibrating toys across a glass table. As Nina says, one needs to be able to laugh at sex, as it is sweaty and hair in the face fun. The three couples are left to their own devices, with Nina going from couple to couple talking about what they are doing, the toy being used. [read the full review]
