NEWS: Feminist pornographers

A new trend has begun in Toronto. Feminist pornography. They are active and growing in number.

Pandora Blake, a 29-year-old sex worker and film director, says that is "possible to record porn in a feminist way". Because "feminist pornographers" are encouraged to enjoy themselves while they are working, in order not to be treated as mere objects. 

Tristan Taormino, another leading feminist pornography director, says that "You get to see more of people's bodies, more of people's faces, and there's less of an assumption of one person or one gender being the focus over another". She tells that because in mostly all "normal" porn films, the camera is focused on the genitals of the actors. She has even organized a Feminist Porn Conference at the University of Toronto.

Feminist porn is also all-inclusive. Men, women, transgender people, gays, lesbians, self-identified "queer" people, straight people, disabled people, people of colour, fat people may be main characters of the porno films.

It's different and innovative, and it's driving the attention of lots of people and experts in the porno world. 

I believe that this kind of filming industry can be really interesting as the actors and the filming process is not focused in the actors as mere sexual objects.

NEWS: The forgotten letters of WWII

A box containing 1000 letters from WWII has been discovered. The letters were sent from France to England, and they contain valuous information of France's attitude towards the second World War. 

The letters before being sent to England passed a censorship, that checked the content of the letters. Most of them were sent anonymously or with pseudonyms, as a person contrary to the regime could die in that period. The letters were written by all sorts of people: workers, intellectuals and farmers. Thanks to this fact, we can see a great variety of opinions in them.

I believe that hese letters have a great value to society and history because they may carry valuable information to historians. The letters are also important to the British and French history because they will reveal lots of unknown details of WWII.

NEWS: Fighting with relatives seems to be linked with premature death

Danish researchers have found out that constant arguing with partners, friends or relatives can increase the risk of death in middle-aged people. 

Even though they could not find the reasons behind that, previous studies show that people with high levels of anxiety and those who often argue with their close family members have a higher risk of heart disease and strokes. So this indicates that anxiety may be an important factor.

According to the study, those who had more levels of anxiety were unemployed men. Nevertheless, if we think about it, when those men get jobs they get stressed... What is the best way then to not die early?

I believe that fighting with relatives is bad and that this research can be true. Apart from this, I think that arguing is a bad think even though they could prove that it doesn't increase the risk of death, because it brings all kinds of problems.
